Funny things my children say......
(Olivia) I did not even exist before mom got pregnant. Well I existed but no one knew about me. (to Spencer) Did you want a little sister, where you excited? I know you hate me know! AND I hate you. BUT sometime you like me Why?
(Spencer) Because I get board.
(Spencer to me) Mom why do you have to use a tampon do you have to put it in your butt?
(Olivia to Spencer & me) No it is because she is on her pyramid. (withing a knowing look to me)
(Corden saying good night to me while laying in bed) Mom if Spencers lips fell off would he still have bad breath?
(Corden saying good night to me while laying in bed) Mom if you take steroids and extends together does your penis stay the same size?
(Dakota) Corden you don't have to be an adult to act grown! Hey do you want to go out and play army in the backyard. Don't forget your sword.
Just a few things that make me laugh.

Sometimes it should be about me
The problem with being a mom and a wife is you tend to loose yourself in your family. I wonder who am I? If I took away my husband and my kids what would I be. I can't answer. I know I am a good mom and that I am a good wife. BUT what am I to myself. What would you answer if you were asked you are you and you can not use wife, spouse, mother, daughter, or friend? It is just about you. I know your saying those thing make up me as well. AND you would be correct they help make me to however I should be able to stand on my own and be able to be a person with out all my people.
I am trying to remember who I was before and I think I am going to have to walk the yellow brick road backwards.

surving teenage boys
What do you do when you are ready to just give up?
What happens when your are ready to throw in the towel, ride up with the white flag flying, or just run away?
My oldest 13 year old boy. I love more than life and of course I would give mine for his. BUT saying that to quote Bill Cosby "I brought you into this world and I'll take you out"
Dakota got into a fight last week at school. He was being bullied and stood up for himself and both boys were suspended for 3 days. His first day back was yesterday, he was getting out of the car and I said "don't talk about the fight all day and get all of your work because you only have 13 days of school left. Have a good day I love you." SLAM!!!! there went my van door, the car shakes. I roll down the window and tell him to loose the attitude and what ever he is upset about he needs to get over and have a good day at school.
I drive away go on with my day then pull in to the school to pick him up pm.
He says that there is a gang at his school and he is thinking about joining.
What would you do??? I know what I did BUT what would you do if your child says something like that to you?

I am a big girl and I hide it pretty well. I started weight watchers Jan. 7th with the family (not my children they need to gain weight) I have gained 5lbs. Not because WW does not work it is because I loooooove food. I don't have to be hungry I just like to eat the taste the smell. It makes it even worse that I love to bake and cook. THEY (do you know who they are? If you do can you introduce me? I would like to meet them and maybe slap them.) say if you cook it or bake it from scratch you should be able to eat as much as you want. NOT who do they think they are! AND what are they talking about THEY need to shut up.
I talked to my mom yesterday and she is really trying to help so I will keep you informed. :)
On another note. I finally made Olivias room look like a room. Not just some space in our house. We have lived in our house for 4 years and I have not really made it ours. Yeah sure we have pics up and stuff every where. BUT not really ours. You know what I mean when you walk into a room and say "I want to die here" (can you name that movie quote??) It is really cute I used some everyday things to really spice it up.

This weekend and Monday
WEEELL It was Super Bowl weekend. That says allot right there. Friday I ran kids around all over town for practices. Corden went skating with all his friends and is worried about his girlfriend breaking up with him. OF course that started a new conversation between Clete and I being week. lol men. Dakota had a basket ball game in Barttelsville. He made his first basket during the actual game not at the free throw line. It was awesome. Sunday we hung out with our friends the Siaus and ate good food, played games, and had Sarah's Margaritas. The kids had a blast hanging out with there boys and sissy was Cathy's little girl it was funny she was even yelling for her instead of me. Here is the family question for the weekend. Why do boys get hurt no matter where you are? I don't mean just bumps and bruises I mean huge goose eggs on there foreheads and black eyes. Now random question for the weekend.
What is your favorite toothpaste?
This morning the three younger kids walk down to the bus stop. Olivia looses her glove walks back to find it and misses the bus. Who knows where her brothers are while she is walking back. I am still at home and trying to get ready. The dogs start barking I go to the door and she is out front. CRYING saying that I scared her. "Why didn't you go to Ms. Angelas" I ask "I don't know" she said "I was trying to find my glove that I dropped and I thought the boys were at the bus stop I didn't think that the bus had already gone then when I went back I couldn't find them." Olivia said with tears streaming down her face and her voice shaking so much that I could barley understand what she was saying. I try to explain to her what she is suppose to do if this should ever happen again. In the middle of my part we hear a bus coming down the street..... she says "I have to go down here to get on the bus" and she runs off to our neighbor two doors down. The bus driver Kenny waves as he passes by our house to pick up the two boys that live down the street and my still crying buy no longer trembling daughter. The point to this story is that Olivia will have to grounded brothers for not keeping up with their 5 yr old sister. Family Question of the day. Is it worth the stress to send your children down the street to the bus stop when your almost 11 yr old doesn't watch his sister? Random ? of the day. What is your favorite invention and why?
