Dear husband

dear husband,

I know I am pre occupied with the baby right now. and your nights I have been lonely. And I am sorry for that. But when I opened your lap top this morning to answer an e mail, I was shocked and horrified at what I saw.

is this really what our marriage has come to?

Me upstairs nursing our baby and you down here watching this......smut?

hillbilly handfishin!? REALLY?

And I thought I knew you.........

Insta Friday

It's raining outside right now.
I love that.
I put everything on hold this morning
Dishes.... Wash.... Sweeping.
It can wait . I am sitting outside with my girl listening to the rain pitter patter on the roof.

I am going to see the Help later this morning. All by myself , just me, an ice cold diet coke, and a chick flick. Sounds like a great morning to me.

The rain is stopping and the heat is rising. Our week in pictures

1. Random snaps from last weekend. Hubby made cookies. They are sooooo good. Makes lossing baby weight hard!! I met with two wedding clients at Starbucks all by myself! The me time was awesome. last weekend I was starting to feel like myself again. That feels awesome.

2. School is back in session. I know I am supposed to say I was sad to see em go. But not really. They are so stinking bored here at home. And with the new baby the less chaos in my life the better. They loved school this week.

3. Just having a toddler home all day is nice. And of course a newborn. But he's pretty easy going. It means lots of play time and snack time.and long coffee breaks for mommy and a few grown up lunches along the way.

And of course my little man! 

Link up with us ! It's fun !! i cant egt the nifty badge to load :(

insta friday and slices of life

woke up this morning not wanting to open my eyes. Last night was the first night, well second night Isaiah has acted like well a newborn. He demanded milk and cuddles from me throughout the night. And well I am happy to be his mama and give him what he needs I was exhausted this morning. Will woke me up announcing he was going to work and I could have cried I was so tired. I drug myself out of bed and silently cursed the well rested people of the world. I brushed my teeth while dreaming of that glorious first sip of coffee. I got myself dressed in clothes that may or may not have matched. I didn't care. I took out the Bobby pins and rubber bands still in my hair from the previous days hairstyle out. I ran a comb through my rats nest I call hair these days and proceeded to put the same Bobby pins and rubber bands in my hair that I just took out. I scooped up as still sleeping baby and kissed his ear inhaling the sweet smell that is baby. After a quick diaper change we headed downstairs to find sweet Myka cuddled on the couch watching Dora. How I wanted to snuggle up with her and nurse the baby while Myka and I chatted about team umi zunni and the backyard agains. But today was a preschool day. I heavily considered The idea of playing hooky. Using the fact that I was sleep deprived as a excuse to not get her dressed and groomed and out the door in the next 15 min. But I did it. Because it's the new routine and it's important to keep to it as much as can. With four kids routine and me need to be on the same team. Even If I wake up feeling like a gigantic lug.


In other news we had a birthday party last night !!  Still cant believe she is 11. She sand karaoke for the first time last night at applebees with her best friend . They jammed out to Taylor Swift and rocked it ! I was so proud of her.

 

 
Lots of baby lovin going on around here. He  is so lucky to have three big sisters who love him so much .As much as I love my little helpers i am excited for Monday ! Do you remember the Staples commercial where they sing the Christmas song its the most wonderful time of the year and the parents are back to school shopping ? That always how I feel on the first day.


Its exciting !

 <

Good gosh its hard to find time to blog. Its coffee Tuesday and I am just now finding a minute or half a one to post something. Night time coffee is fun too. Lets slip away and grab some Starbucks. I will bring my new little man with me.  I could use a break from my other kids. Lord knows I love em' but I am on the edge of summer madness here. School can not start soon enough for this Mom.

After we ordered our drinks I would sit in one of the big comfy couches at Starbucks and proceed to tell you how much I HATE summer in Arizona. How unfair it is that kids must stay cooped up in the house all day. Do you how many times this week I wanted to take a walk with the new baby. But its been over 110 almost everyday. The bright side is I know it will end . School is starting which means fall must be around the corner. Meet the teacher is this week. In fact it's on a pretty big day, Lexi's birthday !

She will be 11 ! I can't get over it.

She is such a young lady.
Such a great big sister.

She is kind. I love that about her. It's something you don't see a whole lot of in kids these days. Why is that ? I blame TV. I hate when parents let their kids watch whatever they want on TV. It gives little minds and hearts such a false impression of appropriate behavior. Girls go to school thinking its ok to act like Lindsay Lohan in Mean girls.

But I am getting distracted.

Lexi you are amazing !!

After we finished our drinks I would need to leave. It would be late and I am beyond tired. I am fall into bed and can barely stay awake long enough to nurse a baby kind of tired. But I am happy I can sleep again ! Pregnancy gives me HORRIBLE insomnia. So I actually sleep better with a newborn then I do pregnant. Go figure.Not to mention the late hours of editing I have been putting in.

Sigh.

Routine will come. Life will settle back into a groove. School will start. And babies will sleep through the night.

And grow up to become 11 year old rockstars .
