It's been a long time

It's been over a year since my last post- crazy how time flies

Since last year we had to move- that was stressful, but our new neighborhood is amazing

Brayden still doesn't talk

Jonas has gotten way into wrestling an legos

Jonas started swimming lessons today

And he told me he didn't want to buy old spice and leave me after watching an old spice commercial about boys turning into mean

How cute

The boys are currently fighting while trying to clean up down stairs

Until next time

(Hopefully not a year)

4 more years

This morning is your fourth birthday- you got a breakfast sprinkle donut with 4 candles and a wolverine and iron man figure. After we sang I told you to make a wish when you blew out your candles: you said you did and I asked what. You said I wished for my donut!

Oh the places you will go

Today is bittersweet; it was your last day of your first year of school and I had to work! I missed it all... I'm sorry, I wish I could have been there- your teacher was amazing (mrs snarski) and I cried because you are growing up so fast.
Yesterday was Mother's Day and it was amazing: I worked in the morning, and you guys and dad surprised me at work with flowers (you always wanted to get me flowers) dad got me a photo book and made me the best shrimp linguine.
Right now we are looking to buy a house and that's overwhelming, trying to find the right place to raise you boys for the rest of your life... It's all for you boys

My so called life

Today I took Jonas to target to give Chaz time to relax... Over course that led to me buying him a 20 set of wrestling guys and candy land And chutes and ladders;
We get home and after he plays with his wrestling guys he talks me into candy land which proved quite frustrating- I halted the game halfway through and we switched to chutes and ladders and had Chaz join in too. Jonas got this game a lot easier and Our first game he won! And he was soo excited! Then at bedtime he saw my boogers and threw up all over his bed. What an interesting day- oh yes and it was the Super Bowl.

There is a light that never goes out

Last night Jonas fell asleep on the couch and we were faced with the task of trying to transition him into his bed. I took I the task and headed upstairs carrying our 45 lb 3.5 yr old that freaks out screaming whenever he wakes up from a nap. I also had to get a nighttime diaper on him- I used orange Gatorade as a bribe when when it came to diaper time. Jonas than looked at me with tired tear filled eyes and asked me to lay with him. How could I resist? I climbed under the comforter and snuggled up to him and starting singing him "you are my sunshine" he looked T me and smiled a way I don't often see anymore. And at that moment I prayed that if the world ended I wanted it to be at a moment like that.

I'm so glad it's Christmas

Jonas had his first Christmas pageant on Thursday the 13th. He was an angel, I of course stood up front and as close to him as I could get and videoed his every move. I was in awe and what he has become. My boy, my booger, my angel.
Brayden on the other hand now has 2 teeth and no sense of what sleep is, but one day, at his Christmas pageant I won't remember that, I will just watch him in awe...

Living on a prayer

I'm not a god fearing woman by any means, the only thing I really fear is tight spaces, crowds, or being alone: I live with a belief of science and a respect for what others believe to be acceptable too- to each their own. but i am putting this wish/prayer/request for karma out there for the Internet to see. Powerball is up to 350 million dollars- I believe the universe has given me 3 winning numbers so far, now I need 3 more. I surely don't want or need all that money, I just want enough money where I don't have to work 50 hours a week (at least) at a job that makes me feel worthless. I want to own a house. I'm not asking for much from whomever is reading this or whomever controls my fate (if anyone does). I just want to enjoy life and not have to struggle like I have been for he last 27 years. I want to breathe easily and sleep in and enjoy life- I more than deserve it..... so please mother earth, science, god, secret millionaire, Ganesh, anyone who can help - let me have this one thing?
