My Admission

Okay i will finally admit that i am the one. i am terrible at making sure i get things in the mail. i have had a box full of christmas presents for my sister and her kids that has been sitting here since before christmas as well as envelopes full of pictures for her and my dad that have been here even longer! waylon's friend josh came to visit back in october i think, anyways he left his glasses and wanted them mailed, and again nope still here is a box already addressed and everything just here waiting to be sent! i am the worse, but if any of you are reading i am going to seriously get all this stuff sent off, but don't be surprised if it takes a little bit. i am just starting to come to terms with this problem and can't make too many promises too soon in the process.

Blogging

Lately i have been dropping the ball with my blog things have just been getting a little too busy over the last few weeks! Robert and i have both been sick and are just now starting to feel a bit better, and boy am i glad about that. having a sick baby is definitely no fun, with all the fever crying and wining. it's also heart breaking when there is nothing much you can do that you haven't already done. now that all that is all over i am glad to get back to my blog and to my regular routine. thanks for having me back and look forward to some good stories!

sometimes it's hard

some times being a mom is hard. Robert is going through a little distructive stage. his violent stage was short lived and i hope this one will be too. i just have a hard time dealing wth it and i know it is sad and maybe even hard for some people to understand but sometimes i consider running away! NOT FOREVER but for long enough to get over the stress, it would probably not be longer than a couple of hours but a rest just the same! i do love my son very much and would never really leave him but i think every mom needs some time to her self and i am one of them that just doesn't get it very often and by that i mean never! i always feel too guilty to leave or to go do anything and i am ready to change it because if i don't i will explode! so i guess i am saying that i am in some desperate need of some girlfriends and a night out ... or maybe just some shopping! then back to my little angel or so he will have you believe!

two thinkg every little boy needs

today my mom came to stay the night just like she does every time she has a meetings in salt lake, and as usual she brought Leny (my brothers dog) and Squiggi (my dog that lives with her) and of course their raw hide bones and such! tonight as my mom was ironing her shirt for tomorrows work day, robert ran around the house with her phone listening to her MP3's and playing with one of the dog bones! and apparently that is all i need to have here to make him happy on a bad day, he went from tired and moody to happy and content in no time at all. thank goodness for technology and dog treats!

a new week and a different time!

happy monday!

yes it is monday and not too many people like monday, but after the nice weekend of family time i like to have robert all to my self a bit and get things back on track, and back on schedule! this week in going to be a bit nicer because this is the first week of day light savings and we get an extra hour of day light tonight, which is just another sign of warm weather and fun at the park! although the weather is kind cold here today and it is snowing it in nice to know that we are on our way to summer, and robert can soon play out side for the first time really last year he was too small.

have a good monday!

the day that used to be my day of resting, shopping and all tha is holy!

SATURDAY!

i used to love saturday it was my day to do whatever i wanted to do. now i have a son and am limited to doing what we can do together! thus meaning no going outdoors if the weather for cast isn't bright and sunny!

so today we will be staying home to do some sort of cleaning project or something lame. the plan was to go to Sugar House park and feed the hamburger buns that my diet will not allow to the ducks, well to the seagulls i guess those damn things, but nope this idea is dead in the water unlike the seagulls! they never go away.

i am sure robert and i will find something to do that will occupy him, he is just at that age where i know he is going to do something i just don't know what it is, he is very unpredictable. all i can say is WAYLON late night movie night please!
