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!

MeXico......

Last Friday night we left for Mexico, Tijuana to be exact to visit my husbands family. His cousin was having a quince which is basically our version of the sweet 16, but they celebrate at 15. It is just like a wedding, its a huge deal down there. Anyways the drive was fine the kids did pretty good. Once we got there it was a bit awkward I must say. It is very cramped and cluttered there people just live totally different.We went there about 4 years ago, but just for the day while we were visiting in San Diego. The houses are very tiny so all four of us were in a room with alot of clutter for 3 days!!the houses are made of basically concrete and plywood they are not like our houses at all.People just throw garbage eveywhere it just looks really really run down. I found it a bit challeneging to have the kids there. For me I see it as really unsafe..there are medicines lying around in childrens reach, drop offs of hills everywhere, there is just plain and simply alot of things that kids can get hurt with childproofing really doesent exist there which was hard because I felt I could not really relax because i watched my kids every move. My husbands family are so very sweet though, and they tried their best to make me feel comfotable. It is really hard though I just felt overwhelemed by it all. One thing I admire about down there is they hold family really dear. They spend alot of time with eachother and basically just have a super strong family value. I feel like here in the states family is not nearly as tight are loyal as they are there. My husbands family would do anything for eachother i cant say that about all my family here. I am really blessed to be married into a family that is so caring my inlaws are just the best so with the downside of things def comes a large upside.They are such hard workers too they do not have alot so they appreciate everything they have not like us spoiled americans! I did speak alot more spanish than I though I would, but only in small groups when alot of people were around I kinda clamed up and got a bit intimidated..lol. We went to Rosarito Beach..and of course I had to go to Papas N Beer!!! OMG I was in heaven..the kids loved the beach and they just played in the sand for hours. We did have a good time its just a whole dif world there and I takes a bit getting used too. Best discribed I guess as it seems they have no rules or boundaries kids and cars run wild!!! Just not used to that i am very structured, clasterphobic, and I dont like messy places..so yeah kinda weird fit. It was a good time, but I am glad to be home. We will visit again I I think once the little ones are a bit bigger it will be alot easier, especially Domonic. they probally thought I was crazy for floowoing them around making sure they dont hurt themselves!!

BTW Stormie stayed behind with her grandma she said Mexico wasen't safe so she diden't wanna go...lol

Randomness

I dont have anything specific to talk about so I will just write random totally non related stuff! Dominic went pee pee in the toilet this morn and after he said "hold on mama I gotta shake it" haha that was funny! I made a dejon porkchop recipe the other night OMG it was horrible! We were starvin, but the dog was full...never will I attempt that one again. I dyed my hair brown a few weeks ago I hate it so I am going back to get blonde back in it Thurs. Funny thing is I did the brown to save me money, but now its costing me more money! Friday night we are leaving for Mexico which i am excited and a bit nervous for. I will be stuck in the middle of my husband fam which is obviuosly gunna be weird they are from Mexico (his dads side of the same live there) and here I am white as can be!!! Kinda weird we cant exactly have conversations. I speak a good deal of Spanish, but not enough to get much conversation going. So my game plan is hang with the little kids they wont judge me lol!!! It should be fun though they are all really nice its just so diff for me its a whole different place. Anyways thats all for now....I am hungry

Few more Easter pics

Easter Weekend

Once again we had a great weekend! My inlaws took the lil kids from Thursday to Sun. My dad and stepmom took storm from Fri to Sun. They brought them home early Sun. though so I could get them ready for Easter. We had our moving yard sale Sat. so we def needed them to take the kids we were crazy busy. My husband even took a half day at work Fri. so he could help with preparing for the yard sale.It took us Thursday night all Friday to get it ready. We woke up at 5 am to put it all out, but it was worth it we made a ton!!! Then my lovely husband told me to get ready after we cleaned up after the yard sale and he took me out to dinner at Cool hand lukes which was so yummy. It a really good steak house in turlock. Then we went to get some last minute easter stuff ect. We got the girls their summer saltwater sandals so they could have them for their easter dresses OMG Stormie's were 40 bucks she wears an adult size now size 5!!! She is 9 Im tellin ya we will be wearing the same size clothes in a few years. I just about fit her shoes already! The price is worth it though they are great sandals they last atleast two summers and they still look new after that so its more than worth it to me. Anyhoo it was a tireing weekend we did alot of work work work we packed alot too. Sun we had to clean up the house and yard since we had our family easter here. Once the kids came I got them all ready and they got their baskets then it was party time. We had alot of fun though the kids had a blast. I dont buy much candy in their baskets because i wont let them eat that all so its kinda a waste so we just get them a few candy things then toys and stuff they will like. Their bigger present we got them movies, and so did my mom so they came up on 5 new movies yesterday! It was fun though we had a good one now its back to the yucky work week. I have alot of school stuff going on this week its gunna be a busy one. Friday we are leaving for Mexico to visit my husband fam in Tijuana so thats gunna be fun. Not looking forward to the drive though...we should be closing escrow also on the 22nd so I see alot of chaos coming up!

People can be monsters

I am just so sad they found the body of Sandra Cantu from our area. I am aware thousands of kids dissapear everyday, but this one hit home for me. My daughter and her are the same age and her town is so close to ours. This could have been my kid just as it was poor Sandra.Me and my husband did all we could to help with her safe return, and held out hope till the end. My heart just pourned out to her family for her safe return, and it looks like she made a early trip home to the lord. My only peace is I know that nobody has her and is harming her she is safe now in gods arms. Pray for her family, and to me this is just another reminder that I need to thank god for my kids and all the blessings in my life. Whoever did this I hope rots in hell this was a senseless act of harm on an innocent little girl.My true belief is an eye for an eye forget this whole fair trial and humane treatment. Screw that these pediphiles and child killers dont give a shit about that when they are taking our children and doing what they will with them are they so I could care less about rights.
Rest In Peace precious baby

Having a great weekend makes for a even worse Monday!

This weekend was so much fun I must say. Sat me and my husband volunteered to pass out flyers for Sandra Cantu who is missing from our area, and the kids went to their grandparents while we wre out which is always fun for them. Then we watched some tivo and just lounged and had a good time. .Sunday my husbands good friend has a pre easter party for the kids. It was a GREAT party! They had jumpers for the kids, vollyball, soccer set up. All kinds of balls and bikes their yard is huge its like a ranch sytle place so it was a huge lot of land prob an acre or so of backyard. They set up a easter craft tables, had a 3 legged race, egg tossing, and pass the egg with the spoon. They then had an easter egg hunt and after the games they had a huge bucket of toys for prizes for he kids to chose from, and they were good toys too! They really know how to throw a party it was so nice! May I mention the food OMG. The best mexican food and they had gucammole dip, yummy potatoe salad, nachos, a chocolate fondue fountain, cheescake ahhhh anything you could think of it was so darn good. It was just a really good time too bad its monday which I HATE!

I Want Mommy!!!

Anybody that knows me knows I AM NOT a morning person. I hate the morning with a passion anything before 9 is considered early to me. I have been waking up around 6:30 for nearly 8 years now you would think i would be used to it right? Well NO I am not i still hate it. My son is the worst he wakes about 6:20 or so sometimes I am lucky and he sleeps till 7:00. Well when he wakes he busts in our room and throws all 3 of his animals he sleeps with in my bed and gets under the blankets with me which is fine then atleast i can cuddle him and still get to lay in bed. well this week I have been staying up late studying so this morning when he woke up at 6:30 i told my husband grab him and have him lay with you so i can try and get some sleep. My husband has no problem laying with him, but he ALWAYS comes to my side to lay with me.So he grabs him and cuddles him and my son says "No I want mama"!!!! he was not having it laying with Daddy! He is the funniest kid he is such a mamas boy, but only with some things. When it comes to playing daddy is the hero. How funny is this me and my husband will sort of compete for paremt of the day!! haha. He wakes up on Sunday with the kids so i can sleep in which is my fav BTW, well he will make them breakfast that tops mine to score brownie points, or he will take them to a bigger park than I do we are always trying to one up eachother!! Its all good fun we crack up at how the kids will sell us out for whoever is the funnest at the time. Gotta love it though!!! I told him I will always win nobody can replace mommy, and I stay home with them he works so i win...haha too bad!I cabt wait for the weekend I have NO homework to do, and its gunna be great.Just gunna relax and have fun.
