Finally....






We MOVED!!!!! YEssssss it had been a long road 2 1/2 months long! My god this has been more stressful than ever thought, but it is done we have our new place;) It is great I coulden't be happier. The neighborhood seems really quiet and out little town is so darn cute. The moving part has been crazy our place is somewhat put together, but we still have ALOT to do. I am hopeing with the 3 day weekend ahead we will get alot done. We still have to purchase a dining set and a few living room furniture items along with new docaration type stuff. Thats the part I am excited for I just want it to be all perfect and ready, but I know it will porbally be a few months before its all complete. I have sure learned patience from this all I am just so happy! The kids LOVE it here they have their own rooms and more space to run free so they are content. Its me who is a feak about every thing they do hands on the walls and slamming doors hehehe...I am really trying to keep it clean clean clean!Tuesday me and the girls are leaving with my dad and stepmom for disneyland until Friday so we will get a bit of a break. My husband is staying behind with Dominic so they will be having man time! BTW the red wall we did in the living room took 4 coats of paint over 4 days my goodness was that a project!

Amazement and Frustration


So my Adriana gets alot of bloody noses. Probally a few a month I would say, and it also seems to be for no apparent reason. When she gets one she is so used to it now she just says "mama my nose bleed i get tissue" lol. I asked the doc about it he said some kids get them alot more than others and there is no reason for concern. My husbands dad gets them almost daily. So last night about 1:30 a.m. I hear her little voice at our bedroom door saying "daddy, daddy" she usually calls him since I sleep like a rock! I heard her and asked what was wrong she said "mama my nose bloody so I got a tissue". I was half asleep and said ok mamas coming. So i took her to he bathroom she had a bad ol' bloody nose. It was on her shirt,her pants, her arms, and all in her mouth! My gosh and my lil girl got up all by herself in the pitch dark and got tissue to clean her bloody nose! She did a pretty good job too! You would think she would be scrared or something but no she got up by herself and fixed her nose she said. I cleaned her all the way up and rinsed her mouth since it usually drains in he mouth also when she has bllody noses. Then she went right back to sleep. I was so proud of her I really hit me my baby girl is getting so big. Then my son...oh my lil man! He has been waking up at around 5:40 in the morn for aboout a week now. I am NOT a morning person at all so this really sucks. He has always been a early riser he would alternate between 7:30 then he went to 7:00 ish which was totally fine with me. Then he started moving into the six o'clock hour which was pushing it for me. Now its in the fives!!! Cant take it!! My husband told me today dont worry I will wake up with him and go for walk...I just think we need to teach him he cant wake up that dang early. He wakes up the girls he is so loud!! 6:30 is early, but ok I will deal with it but in the five o'clock hour come on!! I get it kids wake up early he is my last one and I have never had this issue with my girls. They wake up early "kid" time 7 ish so its not like I expect them to wake at 8:30 or anything. So... for the few people who even read my blog what do you think??BTW he goes to bed at 8 and he does take a nap at 2 and usually sleeps till 4:40 or 5. So he does take long naps so we decided to change bedtime to 8:30 (for all he kids since they are getting a bit older). As for his naps I am going to wake him at 4 so he only sleep 2 hours not 3 Im thinking maybe he is napping so long since he wakes so early so thats where he catches his sleep.

Mothers Day weekend!!!!

I am soooo excited for this weekend. I feel like everyday I am blessed just to have the privledge of being my kiddies mama..so a day thats spoiles me for that is just icing on my cake!! Being a mom is by far the best things I could have ever asked for. Times get hard and my patience gets tested daily, but they make me complete and the crazyness is what little ones are about! Nothing rewarding comes for free or without sacrafice and hardwork , parenting is not any different. To me a mother is a women who loves unconditionally. A women who puts their children before themselves at all costs, and a women who is completely selfless. When I had my first child my life was no longer just mine every decision I make effects my children and thats how I believe it should be. Of course I love having "mommy" time believe me my life is alot of fun, but I live everyday for them my free time comes after any of theor needs or wants. I will say though my life is dedicated to my kids and I dont mind saying I dont have many girlfriends I go out with or anything of that sort because I chose to direct my life towards being with my kids and being the best mom and wife I can be.Having a good social life and hanging with my firends is pretty low on my priority list. The day will come when my kids are grown or simply just dont want to hang out with their uncool mom so I will be here every second while they do.Being a mother is a privledge not a right and I truely am thankful for all my gifts god gave me.

Weekend Review & highlights of May

So this weekend was fun, relaxing, and constructive... yes all the above! On Saturday we just sat around the house and lounged besides our one outing to Costco to buy a Wii...Yay!! The kids love it and so do I you work up a sweat playing tennis and boxing! After we move we are buying the Wii Fit so I can get my exercise on! Then I got a new cell phone since my old one was just tore up and it is a texting phone which is great because I am a hardcore texter and needed one lol! The kids love the wii its hilarious to watch them play especially Dominic.Sunday we got rid of alot of junk Ripon has a once a year put all your large trash items on he curb and they pick it up for you so its a great spring cleaning motivator since we are moving HOPEFULLY this week..it worked out great:) After we did some housecleaning we took my mom out for Mothers day a week ahead since this weekend most likely we will be moving. kids had fun so did I so it was a great Sunday as well.Not to mention this semester is over thank god, and I lost just about 4lbs this week so its goin good for me . Now if we can just get this whole escrow thing over and actually move into our new house life would be at a high point for me.

Highlightes of May....We will be moving into our new place thats all ours no more rent and hello to a mortgage payment!

We will be celebrating out 1 year anniversary even though its been over 6 legally 1....and its been a blessing to have been married to my love:)

My Dad and Jackie are taking Adri to Disneyland Storm and I are also going I cant wait to see her face when she gets there!! (When each of the kids turn 5 they take them to Disneyland..Adri is not 5 till Nov, but we are going now for better weather I guess..lol)

So as you can see we have a fun month ahead!!!

Random things that cross my mind

Why is it that when I tell one of my little ones for instance come and sit at the table and eat your breakfast they dont want to come and will ignore me like I am not even there.....but as soon as I say for instance "Adriana if you dont come eat your food I will give it to your brother"..AND HERE SHE COMES RUNNING SCREAMING NO! With both of my kids this works everytime... fine you dont want it I will give it to your brother/sister then they are on it...mmmmmm.
Why people say things will get done by a certain day and that day comes 3 days or so after the latest date...mmmmmm why dont you just say you are going to take your sweet ass time and when it gets done it does!!
Why do people have to be so dirty and rude. I walk into so many stores and crap is just everywhere unorganized and ghetto rude poeple run around like chickens with their heads cut off...this is the number ONE reason I refuse to go to Walmart..nope never again. I will pay an extra few bucks shopping at Target where I can actually go down isles and not get pushed around by 25 carts in one dang isle!
I can go on for days on things that annoy me....hehe but I wont.

A few things that make me smile....

The poeple at my daughters preschool are just a rare breed. They love my daughter and take such good care of all the kids there. I honestly trust them with any of my kids and I see the good in people when I am there.
When you have neighbors like the one we will have when we move in a week or so. Monday we were out at our new house doing a walk through and she took time to come out and meet us all and find out about our family. She seemed like a truely nice person. Neighbors around our house some we still do not even know at all and we have lived here for nearly 5 years...so this type of neighbor is not typical to me.
Seeing my kids laugh and smle over the smallest things. They will crack uo at the smallest little things too bad most of us as adults cant manage to do that. They see the good in everybody which is hard to do when you are grown.

and....I am so very grateful for my husband my kids,family, and friends. I have an amazing husband who supports me in all that i do. He allows me to stay at home with my kids which is hard to accomplish these days. my family loves me and supports me always. We are blessed to have a new house for our family and an investment into our futures. We are all blessed with good health without that we could not be who we are today.....this past month I have learned patience is something you must have not something you sould try to have. God does the things he does for reasons and I just have to deal with that...for whatever reason it is what path he puts me on and it always seems to work out.

Why did I not do this before??

A friend on facebook recommended online shopping and delivery. I heard about that before but always figured it would be highly expensive. Well for me to go grocery shopping is really difficult, I usually always have atleast two toddlers with me if not three so shopping is a nightmare! I have to rush before their patience runs out so its just not something I like doing. Then I will forget to get something and have to go all the way to the other end of the store and with a few impatient toddlers thats like 5 miles!!! So I looked it up savemart does not deliver in my area but I found the second best thing......Raleys drive through pick up!!! I ordered all our groceries online which is super easy they have everything broken down in categories so its really simple and you pick a time slot you want to pick them up at and you just slip right thru the drive through press a button and they load your groceries!!!! I am so beyond excited about this..and to my suprise Raleys is not all that pricey. I pick items on sale and if they are too expensive I just dont buy but I got everything we need for atleast a week if not more for 112.00 not bad! For the first 5 times this service is free and 4.95 after well worth it to me. Anything to make my life less chaotic I am all for it!
