Laundry time

That is right... it is that time of week again. I always have so much laudry to do. I would do it more often, I think, if my washer and dryer was on the main level. I don't like that I have to go all the way down stairs. Last night I told Matt that I wished that he worked third shift again. He did the laundry when he worked third shift. It was so nice. He doesn't like the to sort and I don't like going down stairs, what a fit. So... this is my goal for today... to get the laundry all done :) 


Breakfast time

This is the meal that I do not like. I don't like waking up in the morning peroid. All I want to do is sit, but my kids want food. Selfish I know. Matt always ask me what are we having for breakfast. I say cereal. He doesn't like that answer, like Keelen he is lactose intolerant. Today we had cereal. Smores cereal that my mother had given to me. They love it. 

 I use to let them eat it in the living room but that doesn't work. They are too messy.

 the Phiser or Sophia
 Keelen- He was mad because he wanted more
Estin- He wanted more too

Doing good

This morning I went and weighed in for the first time since starting Weight Watchers. And............ I lost 10 pounds in 12 day. I am so happy and feel so good. I hope to continue in this path. My goal in to get to a healthy weight and to get off my meds. Please continue to pray that I can keep going on :)

No words need to be said



But, I will say some. We had got home from going to my parents. Matt and I went up stairs to talk for a minute. We had put on a show for them. A couple minutes later we came down to this. GRRRRR.... Did I tell you that I love my kids :)

Home alone

When you have as many kids as we do when 2 or 3 are gone you feel it. Well the older two wanted to spend the night at nana and papa's house so we dropped them off and came home after the party that we had today. Since the older two were gone Sophia had the rule of the roost. She is actually quite good when she has no one to follow. She got to watch the movie she wanted and everything.

 Sophia-- she hate when we put her hair up but then you can actually see her face
 Keelen-- he didn't want to have anything to do with me
Estin-- with his fake smile... I love it.

Time flies

Man does time fly when you having fun. I love that little phrase. It makes me think of my kids... how little time you have with them to lay the foundation that will last a life time.

I have lately been challenged about what I am really doing at home from the messages at church. I think a year ago I was blaming other people in my life and my husband for the way my life ended up. As I sit down and think about that... it is aweful. I made those choices. I am the one that chooses to stay home and be with my kids. Even if I have the attitude that can still end bad too because I am doing it all in my own strength. Jesus Christ is the one that I need to depend on.

For a while I have been thinking about writing on my blog and end up like everything else in my life saying "not right now" or "why, I haven't done it in a while no one cares." Well you know what someone does care... my Lord and Savior cares. I know what you are thinking... HIM?? Yes I think that he does care because if I say yes to writing down how I am doing. I am engage with my kids and you know what... God loves my kids. He wants them to come to Him and sit and listen at his feet.

Matt and I have choose that we need to change our lives. One of the ways that we are doing that is that we have both went back on Weight Watchers. My first meeting was last Monday. I was very happy to be back. It is very encouraging to be there. The first thing that you do is weight in. I was really not looking forward to it because I knew that it was going to say not what I wanted to hear and it did.... 314.4. Yep you saw it right. That is what I weight. That is what I weight when the twins were born. One of my friend really hurt me when I told her that we were doing Weight Watchers again, but it made me think if I don't do something now then when will I do something. I need to start sometime and the time is NOW!!

I am so sorry if this was boring for you. I just want to get back in and start again. I hope that you are with me :)

Keelen's Braces

Yesterday was the day for Keelen to get him new additions to his legs. I had to farm my other kids out to friends because Matt had to work, so thank you Reghan and Angie for watching my wonderful kids. It was quite an amazing process. They built them while we were in the office. He didn't mind the braces at all. He didn't like the guy who was building the braces to leave the room. What a social person. After getting the braces on we went we had to go to our appointment at the Shriners Hospital. Alot of people were asking questions like how long does he have to wear them, ect.... Well the doctor wanted him to wear them as much as possible. They have a locking thing at his knee. They want us to have it locked 4 hours during the day and at night. Last night he didn't like it at all. This morning also I took them off to change his socks and he said ouchy ouchy... it broke my heart. He is starting to get bruises too. He has to go back in 4 months.


I need to find some knee high socks
