TGIF!!!
I ♥ Friday!! It means all my hard work for the week has paid off and I will soon be rewarded with 2 days of help and company!! Yay! The forecast still calls for scattered showers tomorrow and I am scared his birthday may be a complete washout. Today is my last chance to cancel the big water slide, but I am scared to do it. I guess I will just push on get it here, and if its a nasty day see if I can haggle them into not charging me for the day. Man I am scared to death! Next year I am going to do a pool party instead I think, or a lake party. I have a million things to do today. I have to get the paperware and plasticware for the party, I have to get an email sent out to all the parents in the Tball team to get them ready for the meet and greet tomorrow, and I have to get the house cleaned and get all my chairs and seating figured out for everyone tomorrow. I have no clue how I am going to do this, I guess we will eat cake and stuff in the house...man I dont even know. I am suddenly scared about more people coming than I can fit in my house!!
Anyhow its supposed to rain this afternoon again and tomorrow, again. I am so sick of the rain! Its rained more in the last few months than I ever remember it raining here in GA, its crazy!
Hope you all have a great day! Cant believe its one week til my baby boy graduated pre-k! Craziness!

5 more days...
And my little man is FIVE years old!!! My oh my where has the last 5 years gone? Seems like I can close my eyes and still smell that hospital room and see that tiny body in that bassinet with just the dim light of my hospital bed lighting the room and see brian passed out on that tiny strip of foam they call a bench in the room with us. Seems like just yesterday my little man was so tiny and in his pure tiny body he held my reason to live. In those blue eyes he looked at me and in a second saved my life. And now, in a blink of an eye, my little man is all giggles when I read his birthday invitations in true pirate form, "Ahoy me hearties, its a paaaaarty"! He is getting prepared to graduate pre-k and is growing up on me so very fast. I cant believe how beautiful and magical these first five years have been, and its only the unknown beauty of the next 5 to come that allows me to let go and watch him grow again from this little boy to a young man. God has blessed me everyday that he has given me with my two children, and in this sad week of mourning the life of Cheyenne, he has granted me the ability to be surrounded with the love I have here at home.
I hope you all have a beautiful day and are given the blessings I am so lucky to have today.
Much love,
Mommy P ♥
Side note: Today I am taking joey to the orthopedic doctor to fit him for a cast or boot for his broken foot. Poor thing, he has been hobbling around here all gimpy for 2 days now. :P

Monday...
Hope everyone had a very happy mother's day! Mine started off great with breakfast in bed of chocolate chip pancakes and coffee with gifts and Laci rubbed lotion into my arms...even when I had had enough! LOL!!
After breakfast we all played in the garage and with playdoh and then I had to get ready to go get my mom. Me and my mom went to Bahama Breeze and sat out on the deck. It was sunny and warmish and there was a guy singing a playing guitar right in front of our table! We were given roses by the waiters and we had a yummy lunch with a pina colada for my mom and a bahama mama for me! :) After lots of laughs and good food and entertainment we headed over to Ulta and looked at perfume and sunglasses, then we went to the mall to look in Victoria Secret for something for my mom with her giftcard she got from steve. She finally settled on this *smokin hot* red bathing suit that I think she looks incredible in! We had a fun time there. By the time we left the clouds were rolling in so I took her home. It was a great time and made my day complete.
Sadly my mothers day was almost ruined last night when someone in my life decided that it was a good idea to try and cut me down to nothing and let me know that a lot of other people felt the same as her. She claims I also say hurtful things about her and others here in my blog, but if anyone reads this regularly would know that this is NOT a place I do that. This person also wanted to make it clear that I apparently have a made a choice to stay home for no other reason but my own selfishness and that I am not a hard worker and that my job is easy because I have a blog and get on facebook during the day. (btw, I leave my comp on all day and facebook is always an open window) and that she doesnt feel sorry for me in the least because I have "no desire" to change my current situation. I wasnt able to fall asleep until almost 1am after all this and I was up before 6 with a bad dream. I was going to try and get back into the gym tonight but my eyes are already burning and I know I will be walking dead by this afternoon, so not only did this person pretty much ruin my wonderful mothers day she has also pretty much soured my monday as well. Hope she is happy.
Also if anyone reads this who doesnt think kindly of me, please do us all a favor and quit playing charades. I have no interest in maintaining relationships with anyone who doesnt value them. Lets cut our losses and move on.
Welp I am glad I got that out. I hardly ever post this kind of stressful crap on here b/c I know my gma will read this now and be upset, but this is my blog, my diary and a place I can get things off my mind and my chest. Sorry for the sour note this morning.
Hope you all have a wonderful day

Thursday.
First reading of the 10 day forecast shows a sunny day of 82* for the bday party on the 16th! PLEASE GOD let it stay like that!!!! I am so scared that i booked an outside birthday party in one of the rainiest years in a long time! *crosses fingers*
Not much to report on the old homefront. Kids are the same, husband is the same, house is looking the same...including the dishes I didnt do yesterday, and I am the same...and the rainy weather has been the same but now it looks like it could be nice-ish from now til tomorrow afternoon...that would be nice as our yards look like hell from all the rain and everyones flowers are dying from being waterlogged! We need to dry out here in GA!
Other than that I have no news at all. Odd huh? No news is good news, yes?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEBRA! I know she doesnt read this blog, but I wanted to make the official b-day shout out anyhow! :)
Welp I am off to do absolutely nothing for about 10 hours. I am working on just a few hours sleep and I think I will let mother nature be the source of entertainment for Laci today!
Have a wonderful day everyone

Rainy monday....
But its a good day!! I took christopher this morning to Liberty to have his Kindergarten placement testing done, aaaaaand...
he scored a perfect 20 out of 20!!! Most kids get in the 12-15 range, a lot with pre-k get in the 17 range, but only so many get the full 20!! The teacher said "he did great! He is all set for kindergarten...maybe even 1st grade! We will see him in the fall, I know he will do wonderfully" :) YAY!!!! My baby boy is so smart!! ♥ **mommy gloat!**
Anyhow the weekend was good. Saturday we decided to go to the circus. Poor laci was too small to ride anything, but christopher had a good time and they both enjoyed most of the actual circus performance. We went home and the kids played for the rest of the day before the rain had us in for the night. Sunday was groceries, and then I went to lunch with my friend Jesse for 3 hours! LOL!! It was good for me though and I needed the break.
Friday I spend painting and cleaning and re-arranging christophers room. He now has a complete bedroom and is loving every second of it! :)
We got the water slide rented for his birthday on friday too. :)
Anyhow hope you all are having a nice monday!

Happy May!!
Oh so much going on here! Christopher's wall is up and we no longer have an open loft!!! He loves it, we love it, and it will be getting painted that beautiful (yet annoyingly nutty takes 15 coats to cover) dark blue to match today. That means the next things will have to wait til refinance time and that will be our kitchen and the kids playground. I am very anxious for them both!
On a different note, I am worried about this swine flu. We now have it here in GA and I am not so worried about myself or brian getting it, but I dont want to see my kids get it. :( I guess only time will tell, but this is scary enough as it is, and the only time in my life I have seen something like it.
Yesterday we went to get the invites for Christophers birthday. They have discontinued the hot wheels line though so he wanted Pirates of the Carribean instead. I had to buy it all though as they are clearencing it to get rid of that line too! Ugh! S o we have decided on the Aqua Tunnel that can be seen on www.herecomesfun.com in the water inflatables section. I know we will have a blast!!
Welp Laci is mad so I am off to cater...have a wonderful weekend!! USE PURELL!!
xoxox
Me! :)
btw, Grandma I am SOOOO jealous! I have been wanting a topsey turvey forever and keep putting off buying it!!! Now I have to get my butt to ace hardware! I want to do a cherry tomato one for the kids! :)
