Today Is A Really Screwed Up Day

February 27, 2010

Today I’m frustrated.
And sad.
Really, really sad.
I found out yesterday (my whole family found out yesterday) that my cousin’s beautiful baby girl, Penny has Stage 4 Neuroblastoma.  Whatever the hell that even means…I don’t know.  I only know that my family is reeling and Penny is in a fight for her life.
My cousin has had a [...]

Maybe He Will Be a Football Star?

February 25, 2010

Over the summer, we signed Anthony up for Little League.  He hated it.  I think he wanted to like it, but standing out in the field while the other kids were up at bat was boring.  I didn’t really blame him.
He didn’t quit the season, I made sure of that.  But when it ended he [...]

Date Night at Cirque du Soleil – KOOZA!

February 25, 2010

Last night, I had the best time ever with my son, Anthony.  We went to see Cirque du Soleil – KOOZA.  It was the first time seeing a Cirque du Soleil show for both of us, and it was amazing!
It wasn’t just amazing though.  It was terrifying, exciting, electrifying, heart-stopping, vertigo inducing, wild and FANTASTIC!  [...]

Wordless Wednesday ~ Propeller Hats!

February 23, 2010

Me and Bob took the little brothers to Fry’s Electronics today so Bob could buy me the rest of the parts needed for my birthday present.    Walking down the isle, these hats caught my attention and I just HAD to buy them!  Aren’t they hysterical?  Of course, the brothers just love them.  I [...]

Why Don’t You Take This Quick WalMart Survey?

February 23, 2010

Last year I participated with the “More Than Eleven Mom’s” group for WalMart.  It was awesome and I loved being a part of the group.  It seemed to cool off for a bit but now I think they might get things rolling for us again.  YAY!  I just love WalMart and the cheap prices.  It [...]

OMG A Belly Pic!

February 22, 2010

I am not real big on posting pictures of myself, especially full body or belly shots.  Mostly because, frankly, my ass is as big as my belly.  but today I caught one on my phone and decided it wasn’t too bad.  It’s the first belly shot I’ve taken that’s actually made it to my IM [...]

Cirque du Soleil – KOOZA in San Diego!

February 22, 2010

I am SO excited!
Anthony is a “cool trick” freak.  He loves to watch juggling, tumbling, flipping, martial arts, dancing, etc. etc.  He loves it all.  Whenever performance artists are on the TV he comes to watch and you can just see the happiness across his face and the wheels turning in his head as he [...]

He made that statement last Thursday at a press conference to oppose state funding for Planned Parenthood.
“The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion with handicaps has increased dramatically. [...]

I am Not A “Natural” at Parenting

February 21, 2010

Once upon a time, when I was 31 years old, I sat crying.  I wanted a child to love SO badly.  I asked God “why?”  Why couldn’t I get pregnant?  Why did it seem everyone around me was having babies?  I was married 1st to someone who turned out to be infertile, and the 2nd [...]

My Thoughts on the First Half of the Olympics

February 21, 2010

Are you watching the Olympics?
Of course you are. Right?
I’m trying to watch them but it’s hard for me to stay up so late. I’ve been wondering why NBC can’t show some of the good events earlier in the day instead of holding them till after 10pm. It’s really annoying.  Plus, I was [...]

This Sweet Angel Face is the Devil!

February 19, 2010

Today is day four of Potty Training Hell.
In FOUR days, my (soon to be) four year old has peed in the toilet TWO times.  That’s it.  Twice.
Every other freaking potty has been in his underwear.
Do you know how much underwear and shorts we’ve gone through?
A Lot.
Two year old’s at least make an effort.  This child [...]
