Busy Day!!

Oh...today was a busy day! We're going to be leaving for San Antonio, TX tomorrow , a little birthday trip, and we had loads of clothes to wash. First off, I woke up so late, maybe around 2pm. We woke up and started to clean the WHOLE house. We didn't want to leave and come back to a dirty house. I still had Spanish homework so I started working on that while Steve made us something to eat. We ate and he is so wonderful because he also washed dishes. Afterwards, we started washing clothes. I would put the clothes in the machine and my wonderful husband folded them and put them away. He is so great sometimes..when he wants to be. I also mowed the lawn while he weed eated it. My brother in law came over also and was playing PS3 inside with the kids while Steve and I worked outside. I went to our neighbor's house to ask her if she would keep an eye out for our house while we were gone also. I stayed with her and chatted for a bit. And here I am..back at home..hungry! I am hungry. I want something to eat. Steve also put the kids to bed except for Genesis. She has daddy wrapped all over her fingers..all of them. She is still running around. She doesn't listen. We've both told her to go to bed and she keeps coming out of her room. GGRRR!!! Oh wells. I guess I'm gonna go look for something to eat. Still have to finish washing clothes and pack for tomorrow's trip. My day is not over yet! Good night!
Yesterday was my 26th birthday! It was great!! Nothing too amazing, but great! My husband got home and surprised me with a new digital camera, the Canon Power Shot SX20 IS, and the new HP Touchsmart laptop! YAY!! I really wanted the digital camera. I have a smaller Sony one but I really wanted this new one. As for the laptop, he downloaded some type of virus on it and it kept turning off so I needed a new laptop. Plus, I have three homework assignments due today for Spanish so I REALLY needed one! YAY!! It is so awesome! I'm still getting used to the whole touch screen thing but it's really awesome. Well, after he surprised me he took a nap. A very long nap so I decided to take a bath! Ahhhhh, bliss!! I love bathes! They are so relaxing and so....ahhh...I just love em. Well, he eventually woke up and we dropped the kids off at my inlaws so we could go and grab something to eat. We went to.........drum roll please.........The Texas Roadhouse!!! YUM!!! If you want a delicious steak that is not too expensive..and your from Texas, of course...you have got to try the Texas Roadhouse. Their steaks are to die for..not literally! HA! Well, we ordered a Dallas Strip steak and had them filet it since it was already pretty late. It was so GOOD!!! We both filled up. When we were done we stopped at WalMart to buy a memory card for my new camera and some small stuff for the house then we picked up the kids. I stayed up late playing with my new laptop also. All in all, it was a wonderful birthday. I was so blown away by everything. Steve really out did himself today.

Getting Started

I have never done this before so where do I start....Ok, I am 25 years old and a mother to four wonderful children, ages 6, 5, 4, and 2. The three oldest are boys and the youngest is a little girl. I have been married to the most wonderful man for 7 years and 3 months. Not only am I a full time mother but I am also a full time student majoring in Biology to pursue my dream of becoming a Physician's Assistant. Let's just say that it is not very easy. My life consists of homework, and not just mine, cooking, cleaning, being a full time motivator and listener, and so much more. I have yet to master the art of being able to balance everything which makes my life a bit more interesting. Let's just say that there is never a boring moment.
With all this said, this blog will be about me and everything that comes with me. I will include all my thoughts, including those that are personal, and everything that I do.
Hope you enjoy it!

Rough Night

Tonight has been a rough night. After three weeks of Christmas Break the kids go back to school tomorrow. We went to my mom's house early to shower since our water heater is broken and our water is cold as heck. After showering we stopped at the Redbox to get a couple of movies. As soon as we got back Steve and I put the kids to bed, or so I thought. Steve continued to get dressed to go to work since he works graveyard right now. At about 9:45pm when Steve left for work Drake, our oldest, woke up that he wasn't sleepy. I reminded him that he has to go back to school tomorrow and that he better not give me grief in the morning because he is going to be too tired to wake up. He went back to bed and I popped in "The Other Boleyn Girl" and heated up the spaghetti that I had made for lunch earlier. Half way through the movie Genesis, our daughter, woke up crying. I paused the movie, ran to the room and picked her up from our bed and brought her to the living room with me. She opened up those little eyes of hers and started playing. (She is still awake...PLAYING). I don't know how kids have that much energy to sleep for like an hour and wake up completely reenergized. About half an hour after that Derrick, our third child, woke up crying. Again, I had to pause the movie and put Derrick back to bed. Not too long after Jake, our second child, woke up. At this point I was already getting so frustrated. I mean, c'mon. I think this is the first night since all the kids have been born that they have woken up one by one. I told Jake to go back to bed and that I wasn't going to hear any excuses. I went to his room and turned off the TV and left him there to fall asleep. Finally, the movie finished and I am sooo not sleepy. I started browsing the internet and found some stuff on Miley Cyrus. I started looking more into that and need I say, what a disappointment. I can't believe that she is so young and she is doing all the things that she is doing. She is turning out to be like all the other teen celebrities. I won't be surprised if she turns out to be another Spear's kid. I didn't name which one because both Spears, Britney and her sister, have turned out pretty much the same. In a couple of years you'll see Miley Cyrus passed out in a car with all her underwear, oh wait, they don't wear underwear, showing from under her dress. It is all to crazy. I think it is just her desperate way of getting attention.
