I know it has been a long time since my last entry...
I just have not been inspired to come here to update. Things in my life have been so hectic. First my son gets kicked out of daycare. He has started a new daycare and is doing great. He is nothing like he was at the last place. I guess they wanted nothing to do with him. My baby did not deserve to be treated like that. He is three years old, just a baby. I think they expected way to much from him. I am just greatful that he is doing fine.
My Elysa will be one in 9 days. I still cannot belive it. She has started walking and does a real good job of it. She started two weeks today. She took a few steps on her own and that is all it took. Now she walks like a pro!
click here for Video
here is the video of her walking the first night she started.
I just cant believe how big my babies are getting. I can't get over how fast the time is passing...
One more thing happening in my life....
We almost bought a house. We were soppose to close on Tuesday of next week. Well it turns out that the owner cannot sell the house because she has not owned the house for thirty days. That is some sort of Lender Law. According to the law you must own the house for 60 days before re-selling it. So now we have to look at more houses tomorrow. It is so frustrating. We have to be out of my grandma's house ASAP so my dad can move in with his little family. If we are not, we have to stay with the inlaws till we find a place to stay...that would not be comfortable.
So I am hoping that we find a nice house tomorrow. If you read this in time, please keep your fingers crossed...
Well this was just a short version of my life so far...
Also I am posting a few updated pics of my babies...
Like I said before they are getting so big! Time is really flying by!!
these pics are from our trip to the beach last weekend...
Here are some from a birthday party
Here is lil Russ sporting his new "do"
ok enough pics already...I will try to keep up here...things are just so hectic lately...

He was suspended from daycare
How on earth do you suspend a three year old from daycare? My son has no clue that he is not in daycare because he has been bad.
So he is going to spend his "suspension" at grandma's and grandpa's house. He needs some attention and that is the place to get it. He stayed the night there last night. I know he deserves it. He has had it pretty rough at school. Hopefully this is just what he needs to feel better. I am thinking of pulling him out of that daycare and find another place...maybe he has already outgrown it and it is time for him to move on...
How can this face do wrong!!

Lil Russ is going to get kicked out...
of daycare...
He has been having problems at daycare for a little over a month. He has been fighting with the other kids and teachers. I just don't know what else to do. He does not act like this at home. He listens to me and his daddy. He is fine with his sister, He throws no tantrums. He is just great at home and on the weekends. He goes to bed early, he does not even fight us to go to bed!
But at school he is total opposite.
We have taken his toys away when we get a bad report and explain to him why he is being punished. I talk to him when I drop him off. I tell him he needs to be good, no fighting. And he says OK mommy. I don't know what else to do! I feel like I am at the end of my rope. The daycare director is going to call me today at work. I am guessing to discuss this matter. Ugh I just know he is going to get kicked out or suspended or something...I am going to be on pins and needles until I find out...I need good vibes and prayers please!!

Too long since my last entry....
It has been some time since I last updated my site...
Nothing much has changed.
My kids are doing great. Lil Russ is behaving better at daycare(knock on wood). He has turned into such a great kids. He acts up less and less. We took him to a carnival this past Saturday. He had a blast! He loved all the rides except for one. I think his favorite was the ferris wheel. He was not afraid at all.
He has also been signed up for T-Ball. Oh boy am I nervous for him. He has never been involved in something like this. I think he is too little but we will see how he does! I just cant wait to see him in his cute uniform.
And for Elysa, she Crawls!! She has become pretty mobil. She is crawling everywhere and pulling herself up. She is into everything!! Her two top teeth are going to pop through any day now. I hope they hurry up because they make her feel miserable sometimes. She is also trying to walk. She is just doing to much all at once!
Russell has been working at his new job for a little over a week now and he loves it. He still comes home tired but he is not stressed. It is going to take him a while to get used to the physical labor again. I know that he is tired because on Friday he said he was going to a friends house. He went to lie down and never got up. He fell asleep by nine, uniform and all.
Well that is all for now...
I will try to update more often
and for everyone who has left me a tag, thank you!!

News from this weekend. Mom Celebrated one year of Sobriety
She has been sober for one year. I am so proud of her. She has gone through a whole lot to get to where she is now. We went to her Celebration yesterday at her AA meeting. I was so proud. It was a very emotional night. Just hearing everyone's stories made me think. There was one girl who was my age that told her story. I just could not get over that she was my age. I always thought that it was just older people that suffer from alcoholism but in reality anyone can suffer from it. It can affect anyone at any age. They talk about taking it one day at a time and that they can not do it without the help of God. It was just amazing how each one of them know that they can not do it without prayer and God. I need to take things one day at a time. Just like they do. They say that if they stay sober all day then they had a good day. I guess I can never imagine how hard it must be for them, for my mom. I am just so happy that she is getting her life together. Those people there are truly an inspiration. When I saw my mom get up there and hear her say, Hello my name is Sylvia, and I am an alcoholic, I swear a chill ran down my spine. Just to hear those words come out of her mouth made it all real.

Top story this weekend...My friends husband killed himself, and other news.
Friday evening my friend called me and said that she had some horrible news. Our friend's husband decided to take his own life friday afternoon. He was a Fireman, who saved so many lives, but was unable to save his own. He was found hanging from his garage by his wife and four year old daughter. When I heard this my heart imediatly ached for my friend. I dont even want to imagine loosing someone like this. What she is going through I know has to be THE hardest things to go through. She is such a wonderful amazing person. She will go out of her way to make you feel good about herself. She always has such nice things to say. She is one of a kind.
I have so many mixed feelings about what happened. He killed himself. How can someome be so sad to not want to live? He has a daughter. She is one of the prettiest girls you have ever seen with long curly hair and puppy dog eyes. She is just beautiful. How could he want to leave her in this world? If that is not inspiration to live I dont know what is.
Before I had a family, before I got married, I was one sick girl. I tried to end my life several times, two times I ended up in the hospital because I could not stop throwing up all the pills I had taken. I tried and tried, each time taking more and more than the last time and I never left what I thought was my miserable life. I felt like I had nothing to live for. It hurt to get up in the morining. I was full of guilt and sadness. I was too deep in a whole and had given up trying to get out. I was just going to sit in the whole and die.
Now I look back and think, how can one person consume a whole bottle of Mini-Thins which is just ephedrine and not die? It was a miracle, I guess there was a better life in store for me.
Now that I have my kids I know that I was meant to be their mom. No one can be a better mom to them than I can. I love my kids so much and I could never imagine leaving them. I need to be here to protect them anyway that I can. They are the reason that I am still alive today, they are the reason that I was born. I belive I was born, to be their mommy.
Oh and my car got repoed Saturday, but it was for the best. It was only two freaking payments behind. We went yesterday and got a used truck. We got a good deal on it. We looked it up on the Kelly Blue book and we got it below MSRP. Someone up their is looking out for us! The bummer is that the baby's carseat was in the car...
that is all for now!

Breaking News...HE got the JOB!!!
I am doing the happy dance!!
Russell went on the interview today for a new job and he is hired!!
He starts in two weeks. He has to give his current job a weeks notice!!
I am so excited!
He was not happy where he is now. He has been unhappy for a long time. They never appreciated him. I guess because he is just the Warehouse Manager there that they did not think he was important.
boohoo on them!!
Right now he is getting his physical and drug test done.
I am so happy for him!!
He will be working for Admiral Uniforms
Delivering uniforms and such
He loves to drive around instead of
being stuck in the office all day.
The only downside...
We have to put off moving for two months because while he is training he is going to be taking a paycut from what he is getting paid now.
But after he has his route we will be alright...
sorry to ramble...
just too excited!!

Today's top story, Interview in process, and other news.
As I type Russell is in the interview for his new job. Oh I really hope he gets it. It would be really good for him. I will update as soon as I find out.
and in other news,
There really is not any other news. Things are same o same o.
This weekend we are planning on taking the kids to the Rodeo Carnival. This is the last weekend for it. I am excited to see the reaction on Lil Russ's face. I know he is going to have a blast! I know he is going to get a kick out of just riding on the bus over there! Hopefully the weather will be good.
Still no refund check. But it is scheduled to hit my bank on the 29th. I had to get a loan from one of those cash advance places. But I figured out what we have so it will work out fine. At least I can relax about that bit of stress in my life for right now.
Well that is all for now!
