Woah is ME!
Hello my little blogger friends! I must put a disclaimer on this blog:I'M IN A VERY WEIRD MOOD!!
There you were warned! I think today is just one of those days when you want to crawl under a rock and never come out. I seem to have left my brain in bed. Today was rather uneventful. I cleaned and took the boys to ride bikes at the park! Now let me just say this it was BEAUTIFUL out!! I cant remember the last time I had such a great day with my boo heads!!! They went on a little walmart trip with daddy this morning so i could get stuff done around the house!! That helped me out soo much!! I didn't have Kane saying "MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOOOOOOMMMMYYYY! As much as i LOVE to hear him say that sometimes i would like to just be able to hear myself think!!! On the boys side there isn't to much to report today. They get cutter and cutter each and every day! I thank my lucky stars that they are healthy and happy normal 2 year old boys! Potty training is still going strong! I don't have to ask them anymore if they have to go pee they just do it!! (sigh of relief) Sooo nice!!!
You know i don't understand why eating healthy is SOOOO EXPENSIVE! WTF!!! I got 4 things at the grocery store today and it cost me over 20 bucks!! Are you kidding me!!! Sheeesh! I think I'm going to try to plant a garden.. All of the veggies i love seem easy enough to grow..Uh.. at least i think. So wish me well on that.
I am planning a little day get away in 2 weeks and i cant be moooore excited! As much as i looove my family i need a whole day to do WHATEVER i want and not have to worry about naps,cleaning, or whats for dinner amongst the billion other things i have going on in my life!!! I am so lucky to be blessed with such amazing friends! My besties are coming with me! Honestly the thing i am looking forward to most is doing nothing at all!! I plan on shopping shopping shopping, laying by the pool and tearing it up at night!!! HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY (Insert booty dance)!!!! :D Not to mention some of my fave people with be with me!!!
On another note..(this is where i whine whine whine) I am sooo tired of my husband sleeping 24/7. I understand he has a super stressful job but what about me? All i want is a little attention. The second the boys go to bed he lays on the couch and poooof hes asleep..What does that leave me doing..???!!! Sitting by myself just like i do every other day of the week...I have become extremely lonely..Yes i have my friends but they have families as well and cant come hang with me :( I cant even remember the last time we had a date night just the two of us..( err wait we had a date night about a month ago! Thanks mama and daddy!!! :D ) But i just feel like every year just isn't enough alone time..And it seems so hard to do that when all he does is sleep when we have our chance to hang alone together...Ugh...So i guess i will just have to put my big girl undies on and deal...Or get a night job..Well now that i think about it a job doesn't sound tooo bad after all..Now ill touch on that subject another time :D
So goodnight for now!!!

Lent, Excercising and potty training OH MY!
I will be writing a little earlier today due to the birthday dinner i am attending tonight! Grandma(P's Grandma) turns 80 today!! Uncle R and Uncle M will be in town and we cant be more thrilled to spend time with them! Even the boys are excited!
Now on to the title..I think it is pretty self explanatory. I have just finished week one of lent..YES YAHOOOOOWEE i did it..I know and I'm sure you are thinking to yourselves.Don't get to excited you still have (5?) or so more weeks left..Well let me tell you..I gave up ALL sweets.Any type of desert or anything yummy you name it i gave it up.For me that is HUGE! I am the type of person that HAS to have desert every night. Along with giving up desert i have made a commitment to myself that i will exercise 4-5 times a week and also improve my eating habits.Along with giving up ANY type of fast food.(Now I'm sure you are thinking uh wait..isn't that supposed to be a life long goal and not a 40 day goal?) and the answer is YES! It just my jump start. So on to the exercising part..I have started P90X and holy "BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP" is it hard? (did you get the bleep part? i sure hope so.) But i can already tell a HUGE difference in my moods!!
Now on to the potty training I go. So we are in week three i believe of potty training. And i am rather surprised at how well it is going. We have had only 2 accidents!..er wait...i did the "WE" thing again...FML..See how your brain works when you have children?!!! K and K are going pee independently and i rarely have to ask" Hey boys you need to go pee?! Or really then why are you tugging at your" junk" then? Penis AKA "Junk" :D Now if only we can get the pooping in the potty down...UGH!!!!!........K and K are even wearing underwear out every place we go now and during nap time!! Oh yes i forgot to tell you...wait..you ready for it?...I go through 20, YES i said 20 pairs of underwear in one week!!! Boy am i glad im not going through that in diapers anymore...And that equals a whole LOT of laundry...
Ah ha! A little something i learned...When your two year old is throwing a tantrum in the middle of the living room and wont stop..Turn the TV put on MTV music channel(for COX people its 150) turn it up realllllly loud and tell that child "DANCE PARTY TIME!!!!" Let me tell ya snaps them out of it like you wouldn't believe!! Works for me every time! In my house we have frequent dance parties! Doesn't get any better than seeing your two year old shake some booootay!!! :D <3

A day in the life of me..(Ok well maybe not a day but you get the idea)
Lets see where to begin...I suppose i should start from the beginning that may help :) ... . Let go back to the happiest day of my life..Wait..I know what you are thinking and no im not going to say "ONE of the happiest days of my life" It was THE happiest days of my life..I mean..er..uh..i LOVE my husband but my wedding day does not compare to July 23.2007. It started off as any other day does..Get up (extremely pregnant may i add) to pee..Yes i said pee..Well boy oh boy was i in for it..I stood up and what happened my water broke. FML! Are you kidding me..Now i won't go into details... but oh man.. So to the hospital we go..Now im sure everyone wants the details right? Right? Well ill spare you and just get it over with..The delivery day that is :) Kingston Kash came into this world at 5:57pm and Kane Karter followed shortly after at 5:59pm. They weighed 5lbs 12oz and 5lbs 6oz.Boy were they big..For me that is..Come on i know you mamas of 8+lb babies are getting pretty upset at me but i felt like a BUS..And not just any bus but a gosh da*mn grey hound! They were born healthy and went home after only 4 short days in the hospital...Lets jump ahead a few months..(and really i promise you aren't missing much) Well...er..uh i mean you are, but nothing other than the feedings 3 times a night(heres a good visual for you. imagine breastfeeding 2 babies at once in the dark. Ya i know HARDCORE right!! and yes i like to toot my own horn) and countless hours of sleep missed and blah blah blah BLAH..I promise it isn't that exciting...We hit our first mile stone at 2mo and that was rolling over..Which Kane did first. Our second was at 7mo and that was sitting up. 10mo was crawling and i believe they starting walking at 13 or 14 mo. From there things got easier and more difficult. The challenges from day to day changed. We stopped breastfeeding at 12mo(wait..really did i just say WE) Well what i meant to say is the "boys" stopped..HALAULA (Insert angles singing)From there on out we were buying a whole lot of baby food!!! (How sad i literally just lost my train of thought? really come on!!) So i suppose that takes us to where we are now..Lets see two and potty training..Well that is a whole other story for tomorrow..Yes i said tomorrow..I will "TRY" and i said TRY to write everyday..I tend to forget.. So if you are asking yourself"What in the "F"(come on do i really need to spell the whole word out..for those of you saying "huh?" it is the word you say when you stub your toe) is this blog about?" Well let me answer that question for you. It is about the trials and struggles and also the happiest most loving moments in my life! With a little bit of "whine whine whine" thrown in from time to time :) I will also share my struggles of being a housewife..Or as my husband calls me a "Mexi-Cant" ha ha ha very funny.....So until we meet again..er..or uh write again? remember Jesus loves you! HIYOOO!!! (No but really he does).....
Love,
Bernie Ru
