I think too much

I have gone this whole week thinking I have forgotten things. It's not a pleasant feeling to think that you have forgotten to do things you consider important to you. Well anyways I have been working hard doing my spouses group and working on becoming a kindermusik teacher. This job I think will be good because I will be able to make money three days a week while the boys are in school. I will then be done in enough time to pick them up and focus on them.

I had a comment made about Joe the other day. It kinda made me think I mean I know Joe does not take the boys outside alot but he works 12 hours a day and when he comes home it's bedtime. When he is off we spend time together but he does spend time with them outside but he also spends time with them in the house. Well you probably want to know about the comment. Well the comment was about the fact that Joe wants Nate to have a real baseball glove so he can play catch with nathan and then I was told that Joe does not take the boys out anyway so it does not matter what kind of baseball mitt I buy nate. I became slightly offended . Joe is an excellent father I know he worries about it constantly but he really is a great father. Nate and Lucas yell for him all the time and are upset when he does not come to pick them up from school. I think maybe I might have just overreacted I am not sure.

How would you have handled it?

Anyways I am going to review an oldie but goodie

Boondock Saints- I think this movie makes you think about the ways of our world. I mean really the fact that mobsters and other people who bad are getting off is frankly just upsetting. This movie addresses the what would happen if two people got tired of the bad guys always winning. There are some truely funny parts to this movie but overall I think that this movie makes a pretty good point about our society. I think if you have not seen thise cult classic you should and if you do not like blood or guts you might not want to watch this movie.

Good night!

look what i can do!!!

So I have decided to write a childrens book. It was just somethign that came to me last night while I was on my way to bed. My brother and I have the most awesome imagination EVER and we use to make up stupid stories to tell each other very loudly while people were sitting next to us in public places...cant tell you how many people we use to scare randomly because we would be talking about unicorns and such like they really existed and flew in our windows at night.
Since I stopped doing FCC I am enjoying my children again they are freaking the most awesome people that ever existed. Nathan is slowly turning back into the little boy I know he can be which is polite and sweet and helpful. Lucas is loving that it's just me and him and Nathan and that he does not have to share mommy. So while I loved my job I dont think home daycare was a good thing for the kids. I can deal with that tho because they come first I can do other stuff to make money from home I am good at stuff I can work it out :)
I am working my way through mountain of laundry that I have to finish and I am not stressed about it at all so that also makes me feel good lol. Joe and I were kinda having some stupid fights but have calmed down and are back to our normal selfs. By that I mean we can fight and then everything is better an hour later just cause we feel like it. :) I love us this way. He probably wont be deploying which makes me sooooo happy I love having him around and Christmas will be totally awesome again this year because we will all be together in the states with our families and I dont have to rush right back to a stressful job. Although I will have school.
I got the pell grant!!! So I dont have to worry about paying for school and I will have extra money from the GI BILL. I think overall I am very excited that school is over done because trust me I am totally done with school lol.
I watched the movie Miss. Pettigrew lives for a day-I love it. I am in love with the movies from the 30's and 40's. There was a glimpse of some ass in the movie which if you know your black and white movies would not be allowed but overall the tone of the movie the message I thought was very awesome. Miss Pettigrew entered just for a day a world that she was much too old fashion for and that made her test her limits and made her stop judging the outside of people for once. She helped those around her realize their dreams and at the same time she found her knight in shining armor...she saved him from an evil witch and he saved her from living without him. I think you should all see this movie even if you dont like it...it will give us something to talk about :)
Thats it for me from this week I am off to finish cleaning and to get some more writing for my childrens book done and to do research on publishers :)

Slacker that I am

So the title says it all. The slacker that I am I have not seen any new movies therefore have nothing to contribute to my own review segment of my blog I feel like a failure. Ok not really I have children the fact that I even get to type out this blog is a freaking miracle.




This week was filled with penis....what do I mean by that you ask? Well my oldest (who is three and awesome) discovered that there is in fact a difference between him and girls and it's that he has a penis and shockingly enough he has put two and two together and realized that mommy is in fact a "gril". So all week in the random places that he tags along with me too I have had to deal with a very LOUD three year old saying "MOMMY I HAVE A PENIS!" followed very closely behind this statement is " Lucas has a penis, Daddy has a penis, Ashley is a gril, Daisy is a gril, your a gril" The weird looks and snickering as we stroll down the aisle are almost unbearable. If I was not such a dark person you would have seen the blush creeping across my cheeks.




How did I respond to my awesomely funny three year old? I told him...that he was right and


kept moving. Really there is nothing I can do over reacting just causes a louder lil voice to cry because he thought his new found knowledge was going to be accepted and he would be called genius. Because for him he is the first person to ever figure this out.




I bribe my children...I am proud of it. Nathan refused to talk to his teachers he had no problem with them just did not want to talk. So I decided that since our talks about talking to his teachers had done nothing to help that perhaps I needed to take a new approach-the bribe, what I did was I told him that if he spoke to his teachers at school that he could play his DS when he got home from school before dinner (yes the three year old has a DS I gave him my old one when I got my new one). He was so excited he had picked out a Dora game several weeks before but due to bad behavior was not able to play it. It worked like a charm! Everyday he comes and tells me he speaks with his teacher and I mention less and less about him being able to play if he talks now we just talk about him talking and he understands that he needs to speak up. So *sticks out tongue* it does work lol.




Lucas my youngest threw his first temper tantrum in public at the age of 14 months. He acted like the biggest ass that ever lived and I just let him do it. I got nasty looks a mother walked passed with HER one year old and said to hers "see we dont act like THAT" and I replied "Thats right we save it for home!" He was tired and didnt know what he wanted. He didnt want to be held he didnt want to sit in the cart nothing was working out so I let him cry while I attempted to find shoes for my oldest to wear in German kindergarten. He banged his head on the ground threw himself on the floor kicked and screamed. All things I walk over him at home for and I did it when we were in public. If i scoop him up just because we are out then he knows he can act like this when we are out and get away with it. Made that mistake with my oldest wont make it again. As it turned out he calmed down and I did pick him up gave him kisses and told him I loved him.....sigh only for him to do it again while I was holding him




Dude longest shopping trip EVER!




Go here people for the twilight New Moon trailer it's hott!
