The little Girls

 As I have said before. i love my girls. They are the light of my life. I can not imagine life with out them. Leah is 31/2 and so independent that it is not funny. She loves to laugh and smile and make jokes. I think that the older she gets the more sassy pants she will get. Although almost on a daily basis she reminds me that she is only a little girl. That you are is my reply to her. I sometimes feel bad because I give her a lot of responsibility and sometimes I need that reminder that she is a little girl and not to expect everything from her. How much is too much? She sometimes reminds me of myself when I was younger. Doing whatever is asked but at the same time not wanting to do it. Humm. My goal and wish for Leah is to never give up on your dreams and wishes. She is a beautiful daughter of our Heavenly Father. I love her so much.

 My second child is Stacy. She is 1year old. Stacy will let you know it too. she knows what she wants and will voice her opinion to let you know it. Even if she can't talk. She has recently began dancing. Anytime that music comes on she loves to dance with it. She will bob her little head back and forth. She also has started following directions which is awesome. I love when I can tell children something to do and they do it. Amazing how much better life is for all when communication happens and everyone understands better.                                                  

                       Leah just loves her little sister. Can you tell. But Stacy on the hand wants some space..

One of my favorite things to watch is my husband playing with his children. He makes them so happy. They adore him. He loves them too. The girls have so much fun when he is around and playing with them. These last two pictures say it all. just look at everyone's face in it. Happy as can be.  I love taking pictures of my family and seeing the joy that comes from having one is such a huge blessing. It is life and i am enjoying dealing with it right now.

Migraines! Go Away!

Ugg, I hate mornings. They are one of my life's evils. Sometimes I want to find a way that it would never be morning time. If you know me you know that I am not a morning person. I don't even know I am a late night person either. Most days lately I have been waking up feeling awful.But lately I have been getting these never ending headaches. I used to get them when I was a teenager and was put on medication for it. Then they went away for awhile. Now they are back, soemtimes I think with revenge. Trying to make up lost time. Ha Ha.

The only thing that saves me is when Scott comes home and massages my neck and head. In October he will be going to Western States Chiropractic College. Which is nice to hear. I can sort of see the end soon. Or should I say the begging of a new chapter. It will be nice when he is done with college. I am so excited. When we can afford it I will be able to quit my job and do things that I would like to do. IE; volunteer as a special education aid, and in my children's schools. Own a home.

It is kind of funny, Scott and I were talking about it the other day and when we got married we talked about our 5 year plan and 10 year plan. By 5 years (which would make it this year) Scott was going to be done with college and we were suppose to be buying our first house. Well we are probally 4-5 years off from that mark. But as I keep saying "It's life... just deal with it". I don't mind at all yeah it would be nice to be in our own home with a yard. But hey right now we are not in debt (except student loans) and my girls are happy. What more can a wife and mother ask for?

I am watching my girls play right now and they really love each other. They play so well. I only hope is that they continue to play nice and love each other. It is only a matter of time. I remember when my sister and I used to play with each other and have lots of fun. But it seemed like as we got older we never got along. Fighting all the time. Then we she went off to college was about the time we started really getting along. Of course she moved out of the bedroom and was not living with me. Which might have played a small role in things. LOL

I will have to post pictures of my family. I love them dearly it is amazing how much love you can really have for your children. I am truly blessed.

Tired and stressed... Need a new outlet

Hello,

So I started this blog back in 2010. And here is my first post in 2012. I know lucky you. I wish I could just transpose my thoughts on here because I have a lot that I can say. Although I wonder if any one really cares. Oh well. I am writing this post to see if it will give me the outlet that I am looking for. Right now I have my oldest child in the back ground saying "Ewe-ewe that is poop" I feel that I never get a break. Not even for a moment. When I was a child I can remember my mother saying, "I am in the bathroom, leave me alone." I remember her stressed out and always tired. Probably because having 6 children and working full time wears one done. Now I am not saying that she didn't love having kids. Or I for that matter. But what I am saying is that in every job someone does no matter what it is. There is bound to be something that you don't like. I have 2 jobs and a lot of roles. Sometimes I feel as things get way over looked. Maybe that it is I am a female and over analyzes it. Who knows. So my first job is a wife, and a mother. Second I am an apartment community manager for an Apartment Complex in Beaverton.  (I will have to tell you stories later about life as a manager, I have seen some wired things doing this).

I am very scattered brained so my thoughts are always garbled up. Sorry about that. I think about alot of stuff.

Anyway. My mother always was on the move. Until I had children of my own and they became demanding. I don't think I fully understood what I put my mother through. She survived and so can I too.

My biggest pet peeve right now, Leah saying no. Or I don't think so. She is 3 1/2 with an attitude. Oh my. I don't think I was ever that sassy when I was little. I guess that is what I get for being mouthy when I am an adult.

This sure helped me but I probably left my readers a bit confused. Sorry I will try to have clearer thoughts next time I write. Bye bye for now.
