The Terrible, Terrible, Terrible TWOS!

Well, Today was the first day that Eli has been back at school since before Christmas! Then he now has four more days off because they are closed for the holidays. Poor little guys is probably so confused!
I decided to go to Walmart with Carter to get some organizing bins. We went by the clearance isle where there were two of those little fur real miniature puppies he saw and just loved them. I told them we couldn't afford them (they weren't on clearance, some one just stuck it there i guess.) but of course as many times before that wasn't good enough. Let me tell you, I have never heard a child scream and squeal so loud in my entire life. I mean people come out of isles just to see what is going on! There is usually someone that comes up that evidentially has grown children and been in my very position. They try to talk to him, which he stops and listens with his curly crazy hair and crocodile tears, but the moment I thank them and we are off it's back again. Needless to say, I didn't get one thing done that was needed and wasted gas money and think my right ear is getting deaf from hearing him the whole way home. At least it wasn't like last time when I had both that were doing the same thing plus kicking, screaming, and biting.(That would be Eli.)
I guess in a sense Eli is also going through his terrible two's because mentally he not quite two and a half.
Anyway, That was my day.
I am just so thankful it's Thursday! It's the evening I keep for myself. If your a Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice fan you know what I mean!
I am that much of a fan that everyone knows that if they call it better be an emergency or when the commercials are on. I really want Meredith to get pregnant! She would be such an amazing mom!
So, I have 45 minutes to get the kids in bed... Gotta Run!

Had to post this....

Having fun with layouts and headers

Okay, so since I am just now "really" getting into this blogging thing I am amazed on how much fun you can have with themes, headers, apps, and so much more! I always wondered how some blogs did it.
I started with a search and found a cute blog called: The Background Fairy: Free stuff for your blog.
I was very impressed with the designs she offers and there aren't any advertisements or distractions on her actual designs. But, if you are a kind person you will grab her button and put it on your blog like I have.
she makes it so easy to add the designs to your blog.
If you like chic, girly, antique, and elegant designs then you will love the Background Fairy!

I picked up my header from her. =)

Just thought I would share!

Rain, Rain, You can't come soon enough!

We actually had a tiny thunderstorm about 3 nights ago and it was awesome. I think Missouri is the only place you can go sledding, snow, rain, and keep your summer clothes handy within two days time. Such a weird place. Anyone living in this central area has to like surprises, or has learned to deal with them because you never know what you are going to get. Here when we watch the weather, we bet on if the weatherman will be right. Like as if we are betting on a horse race or the indie 500.

Would this suck or what???

The other day I was watching Wheel of Fortune and someone got a trip to somewhere out of the states. I thought to myself, "What if you work really hard to get yourself to the US only to go on Wheel of Fortune and win a trip back to where you came from?"
Yes, sadly enough... these are some of the crazy thoughts that run through my head. =)

Good Bye 2010!!

Happy New Year! I am so relieved that 2010 is over and and really looking forward to 2011! As the new year comes in I can only think about how great full I am for family and friends. Today I took down the Christmas tree and have been rushing around to make the house all fresh and clean. I am ready to start off on the right foot and yes, I have gotten an early start thanks to my little monkeys. (Carter of whom is now past out now on my shoulder. I guess blogging isn't in his top 10 list. :). )
 It's really weird because I have been dreading this year with the fact of me turning 30 but to be honest, I am actually looking forward to getting out of my twenties. They sucked!

I actually thought about New Year's Resolutions and you know what?? I am not making any this year! Nope, not one. Why? Because they suck to. Hahaha, no not really, but I can never seem to keep them so I am having the the attitude of "Do my best, and ignore the rest!". That way there is nothing to feel guilty off!
Anyway, I have so much more cleaning to do before considering this house as ready for the new year as I am! (BTW. Still love our little place. It's not a big house, but it's perfect for what we need!)
