Speed Racer and fun

What a weekend! Lots of fun and unforgettable times. The DH put more of the swing set/ fort up and boy all we heard is thank you thank you about a dozen time. It was so cute. We also went to Chicagoland Speedway. I had bought my hubby a ride along for Christmas so we went to go and watch him do it. Next time I am doing it to. It looks like so much fun. I said that last time but I really do mean it this time LOL. Today I am getting a lot of much need laundry done. I hate doing it but it is a must I am almost done just  got bro's to do and fold some more and it will be done. Well I will post some pics of the weekend enjoy.

Weeks fun!

So This week has been a blast gone by way to quick but fun. We went to the park and feed the ducks along with a ground hog how cool is that!

We also went to the Porter Co. Fair spent way to much money!! How can they charge $7.00 for a adult to get in. It just doesn't seem right when you know that they are banking in the money. O well we will remember that next year. I tell you if it wasn't for the food we wouldn't go. Tonight is the Pirogi fest I can't wait. I love all there food they have there. I wounder why I am so fat LOL. 

Fun weekend

Well what a weekend. I keep trying to find things that are cost effective and fun to do on the weekends. This weekend was fun. We went to a small fair on Sat instead of the big one. I figured it would save money and we would still get cotton candy which is the main reason for going. LOL. So we went there and after we went to chukie cheese just to play. we got 2 drinks and tokens and called it a day. It was great for $35 we got to play and have a lot of left over tokens for next time. My DH also started the swing set/fort. Sunday he picked up where he left off and worked on the swing set more. We also cooked out at our house for the family. Which turned out to be great! We didn't eat outside for one it was way to hot. Well the swing set isn't completely done but it will be sooner then later.   

In laws gone and my mind with it.

Wow my In laws are gone the 4th weekend has passed too and you would think things could go back to normal. Nope this weekend my cousin is in from NC but it isn't as fun as it use to be. When she would come in the past she spent alot of time with us. This time and the last time they have came I feel as tho it isn't the same. It is different she has a sister in law and my other cousin her younger sister is much more into seeing her now that she has grown and out of college it is nice to see them spend more time together but it also hurts too. It is all good tho. We went over to there hotel last night and the boys all went swimming. It was a blast!! While we really missed Brody's bed time and he was a pain in the rear to sleep it was all worth it. I love spending time with her and the kiddos. Ok so what else has been going on. Really not to much well how can I say that with a 3 year old and a 3 month old. A lot has been going on. Just today Car sat in timeout for 45 min. Why would I do that. He hit the dog and wouldn't apologies to him. So I had to show him who is boss. Well needless to say he said he wouldn't do it again but he didn't say sorry to the dog. O well I guess I will take one or nothing. He is so much like me it is scary. He is off with his daddy today to go the air show. Me are Brody are going to go to the fair with my mom. So I guess I should get off here and start getting ready.

Our world in mine

I am still trying to figure out all this blogging stuff! I will get it one day. Today upon reading someone else blog I came across this youtube video.






All I can say is this is so true. I am my self trying not to be one of those kinds of consumers. It is really hard tho. I have also decided to live more green in turn it will also help us to create less consumer waste. Oh and help us live within our means. We have caused our self to become a Jones and I don't want that. I want to live more simple and hopefully with the steps that we are taking we will get there sooner then later.

Our weekend was crazy we decided to go camping at the last min. Can you say what a pain in the ass!!! Needless to say we got down there on Friday and left on Saturday late evening. It was mostly boring seeing it rained probably more then half of the time we were there. I can say I did enjoy sitting around at my aunt and uncles house talking with them, wish we would of gone over there sooner when it was raining. Needless to say we were just gonna leave then but decide not to that we would stay until Sunday morning. When we got back to the camper and started a fire. We noticed a storm coming in. We checked our radar and decided we would just leave that night still. So off in the car we went home. I am glad I got to sleep in my own bed there is nothing like sleeping in your own bed.
Well I need to get off of here my husbands family is coming in from OK and I need to get some more cleaning done. So off to do that!! To many goals to even put down.

Oh one big goal! Not to go crazy while my In laws are here.
I say this because I am finding myself slipping into depression again. No fun when there will be a entire house full of people and no place to get away.

Last couple of days

Hello
This week has been going by so quickly not much saying today is only Tue but Sun and Mon where gone to quickly. I am sitting here looking at my calander for the summer and need I say we are busier and busier then ever. Something every weekend from pretty much now until the end of summer. Wow We have family coming up the weekend after next and we were gona go camping this weekend. I am thinking we shouldn't. We have so much around here that needs to be cleaned! I know it all can't be done as quickly as I would like but hay every little bit helps. Yesterday I cleaned up a area in the garage and cleaned up some stuff in the house. I have so much more to do before they come. It is ok whatever don't get done doesn't they all know I am not a neat person. LOL. Car finially got a 14 block page filled up and now we are going to Chuckie Cheese. The goal is if he sleeps in his bed and does not get up he gets 1 sticker 2 for peeing 1 for sitting on the potty. So it took about 3 weeks to get the 14 blocks filled but hay something is better then nothing. I need to print another one out but of course our computer is being a ass and will not let me. It has a mind of its own lately. It will only let us on sites that it wants us to be on. I haven't been able to check my mail in days. I got on yahoo today only for it to freeze up. I had 112 messages so there they sit and it makes me mad. What is worse is no fantisy racing or myspace. Neither of those pages will let me on either. While I would love to go and buy a new computer we really can not afford to do that. Money isn't horiable but it isn't great either. Well enough about that. So off to clean and play today!! I will update later.

Yesterday was a strange day. I decided to go to Walmart to pick up Carsons birthday inviets and of course I shopped which got told I shouldn't of. Anyhow I didn't spend a lot. When I got home I noticed that the invites year on them say 2007 not 2008 o well I am not spending another $6.00 to redo them I am a cheep butt. I just wrote a 8 over the 7. It will work lol. You know how many people looked at them and didn't notice. I guess they really weren't looking at them.


I was up stairs changing the chunkie monkeys diaper and hear my other monster down stairs screaming. I could tell it wasn't a scream that was I am hurt so I took my time. This is what I came down stairs to see. My monster swinging in the babies swing locked in and he was screaming because he couldn't get out. OH my I would post a picture but I don't know how when you are adding on to a post for the day. Sorry!

As I was getting off here I noticed that my son is trying to go down the stairs in my laundry basket. He has attempted this now 4x. I have talked him out of it as of now hopefully he doesn't think of it when I am not looking.

Sorry, I have not written in her in a while. My computer has been acting up and has been a pain just to be on here for a moment. It all of a sudden started working again. Weird if you ask me but hay I will take it.

Today I:
Worked on the kitchen
Talked to a friend I haven't to in a long time
Swept and vacuumed the living room
Did a project with Carson


So Carson's room did get cleaned and the bed made. Woo Hoo but now it is a mess a little bit. I still need to go threw the closet and clean the stuff out that is not needed.

So this weekend went by so fast 2 birthdays and 1 baby shower. Man Sat was a busy day. Sunday we went shopping when we really shouldn't of. Seeming we have been spending way to much money lately!!! I mean way to much! After that we came home and it started raining boo hoo. It did finally let up and I was able to get outside to plant my tomatoes and watermelon plants. I also cleaned up some of the patio toys. They really still need to be cleaned and painted but I figured at the moment that cleaning them would be good enough. I still have a lot to do back there. So that is on the short list of things that needs to be done. I really need to start writing out my goals and doing them. Ok well lets start.

Tuesdays Goals:
Bathroom clean up
Clean up Brody's room
Pick up Carson's room

If it is nice out:
Clean up the patio some more
Edge the yard
Wash the car

There they are hopefully they will all get done!!

ER and Clean floors

What a day yesterday!! My hubby called me at 6:30am to tell me that they put his mother in the hospital that night. They are saying she has a clot in her leg. They have not done any kind of test yet well none that we have been told about yet. See she don't call me and tell me anything so I have to wait to hear it from either my sister in law or my hubby. No biggie to me tho. I just hope what ever is wrong with her leg they fix. Well then my DH was running up our stairs for who knows what reason and fell on his knee cap. So we were off to the ER to spend 2.5 hours and be told it was only bruised. Which is great news!!! I said things come in 3's what is next. He said did my mom call you. No hun she doesn't call me. LOL he knows this. Anyhow, His cousins DH on his dads side had a heart attack and died in his sleep. He wasn't even that old maybe late 30's it is so sad. My DH is not close to his cousins and really doesn't even know which cousins DH it was but it is still sad. And he wondered why his blood pressure was so high at the ER.

Other things that happened yesterday!

~Carson fell down the stairs.

~I made a cake to practice what I am doing for his birthday. I put it on the table to cool and said don't touch it I will give you some in a while. Well he did totally ate almost 1 layer. LOL

~My dad got a weird phone call.

Wow what a day!! Only really good thing that happened was Brody slept all threw the night. Of course not last night tho. LOL can't expect to much guess.

~Mom colored my hair and I did hers.

~I did clean my floors on the main living area which is the entry living room, dinning and kitchen area. They look so nice.

I still need to get into Carsons room and clean it. It looks horrible I should take pictures and post before and afters. I will hold on.

Ok so I don't know how to post pictures really yet but I will learn!!!!! Ok so the before and to come the later.

Goals for the day:

Clean Carsons room

Do 2 loads of laundry

Pick up Kitchen

Gassy goals 5/30

I have found myself looking at others blogs to see what they are all about. You can find blogs about everything! Well I decided mine is gona be about everything in my life as a SAHM.



Today's goal was to do laundry and clean a room LOL. Yeah right my lazy ass has only done 1 load so far and that is it. Well I did clean up the laundry area. I do have some in the dryer right now that I will need to fold here real soon so then I can say I did 2.



My husband has been car pooling since the price of gas has gone up so much. Well last night he made the comment to me that he probley should drive to work tomarrow because it is supposed to rain. So if he can come home he can with out worring. Well of course he didn't drive and the other guy he carpools with just left work. He did tell my DH's boss to tell him but still now my butt has to go out there and get him. I don't even know where to go. What a pain saving gas has caused me today!!!

Update I didn't have to go get him thank god!

In the begining

I have had this blog for quite some time and I have not wrote in it at all. So here it is catch up time. I had my son yes son not daughter on April 2nd. I found out about 2 weeks before giving birth that it was a boy from a U/S done to make sure the baby was head down. If you ask anyone I was close to they knew I thought it was a boy all along. So I had to fun running around and return things to everywhere good thing I kept all my receipts.



OK so now I have 2 little ones at home. It hasn't changed much still lazy and the house that I started to clean is now a mess again. It doesn't take long if you don't keep up on it. Which is where I fall behind. So I start off this blog with a mess and hopefully during my journey in everyday life of a mother and wife I will become a domestic goddess!! Well that is the hope. so hold on tight because here goes nothing!!!
