A much needed post

Sorry it's been awhile since I have posted. I guess you could say I am losing my "humph" to update this. It was fun for awhile but the newest is wearing off.

I want my girls to have something that journals their childhood so I guess I better get my butt in gear (and get that humph back) and start writing more about what they are doing otherwise they are going to ask me a lot of questions and I can not remember what I did yesterday must less when they ask me years from now!

I am taking a snow day today! The weather is already bad (at 7:30am) and it's going to get worse so I decided it's not worth risking my life! (I live an hour from work)

So what have the girls been doing? They are BUSY!!! That is the only word I can think to describe them!

Gracie has a huge attitude these days! She will scream (like she is dying) when someone touches HER blankie! She doesn't like when her daddy gives her kisses some days! She is like a teenager going through PMS! So I can only picture what our lives will be like when she is a teenager! For some reason I am seeing boot camp in her future! ;)

Hannah is still the laid back baby that is really good most of the time! She laughs and plays so good! She is very much a baby that likes to be held ALL THE TIME! So she gets mad if I am cooking and won't hold her. She has 10 teeth now! She has 4 molars (I guess that is what they are called) but she still only has her bottom 2 and then 4 top teeth. She is so lovable and cuddles! I am just THANKFUL we don't have 2 attitude children ;)

My feelings have been very hurt the past week when it comes to girls! When I pick them up at night from their Grandma's they do not want to come home with me. They don't even get excited to see me! But once they fight, kick, scream and we are home they love me! I know it's just a phase but it really breaks my heart! I understand why they don't want to come with me -Grandma's house is like a circus! She feeds them what ever they want! They get pop there- and new toys daily! I wouldn't want to leave either! Also Grandpa is there to help as well so it's not like at home. Since Jack and I both work different shifts we are both home alone with them during our time with them. And let's face it- I have to do dishes, laundry, take care of the house and more! I am not saying I have this house that is spotless and my kitchen is always spotless because it's not but I do take care of 97% of the house! So I don't have the time to sit for hours and play with the girls at night! So I am feeling really guilty lately! I wish I could just quit work but that won't be happening for awhile! It has something to do with benefits, heat bills and car payments!! If I had my way I would move back to my old 900sq. ft house and have no extras (cable, cell phones etc.) and stay home with the girls but we know that won't happen!

Well I am not just babbling! So I am going to wrap up- This is suppose to be about my kids not me!

Until next time...
