YAY ME!

Today, while talking to my good friend Mishel, I realized that in the last 2 weeks, I have kept up with every chore in my house.....even laundry (which is a HUGE accomplishment for me since I hate laundry with every fiber of my being and growl at the machines when I go in there. I just really hate them that much).

I see something dirty, I have to clean it.
And as some of you know, this is not a common occurrence in my home. If I don't feel like doing something, I won't. If I feel like I want to sit on my trash all day and do nothing, I will, even if my house does need a little TLC. I make sure the kids are dressed, fed, and not dead. As long as they are ok, that is all that matters.
Is it early nesting??
As I pause and look around at my house, I notice my walls. They need to be washed, all of them. (Jana, send over your kids, I will pay them)
Then I realize I haven't touched the basement in a while and that even though everything looks really nice, once you open a closet you quickly realize where it all went.
So nesting??? I think not. If it was, my basement would be clean, my closets organized and I wouldn't be hiring out the wall washing.
Now I don't feel so accomplished. Actually, I lied. Yes I do. The laundry is all clean and folded and put away and it has been for 2 weeks. For me, that is pure awesomeness.

Year 6


Today is our 6 year anniversary. It went by really fast. In 6 years we have lived in 1 city, 1 town and 5 houses. We've had 6 different jobs (between the 2 of us), 5 cars and 3.5 kids. We've had good times and bad, laughter and tears, joys and upsets but overall, it's been great. Here's to many more years of driving each other crazy but there is no one else I would rather want to make me crazy than him.

PINK



So sure I was gonna have another boy.....sometime. Maybe still. It could always be wrong, right? This is the last one so this is the last chance. Jared was sad when I told him, he cried. Poor guy, he wanted a brother. But then we talked about how he will be such a good big brother and take care of all his sisters and that he can be the only boy with daddy and do lots of fun things together. That made him feel better.
Now for the next part.....the name. Good luck to us. I need both names cuz you never know. I'm still on the fence about believing this one is a girl but at the same time have come to accept it. We suck at coming up with names. I guess that's why I just steal all of Jana's that she didn't use (so she says anyway)
