Angel Baby

Caleb has been an angel baby lately...All week he has been great..I've had a headache that has lasted almost 3 weeks...I meant to go to the doctor after the first week but we all had the flu then this week my doctor has been out so if im not better monday i will go....We've got our tree up and Eli loves it...he loves all the christmas stuff..All this week after it gets dark i have to run him out to see our lights and Grandma Becky's inflatable stuff, because Elis' crazy about it...We went to MaryLou's tonight to see her xmas stuff...I love that we live so close to everyone that we can see them so often....I'm thankful everyday that granny let us live in her home....We miss her so much...Caleb is really sleepy..

Hunting Season Starts Tomorrow

David is taking tonight off so he can get up and go hunting in the morning..hopefully he will get a deer on his first hunting trip...so he wont have to leave me here with both kids..i hate getting mad about his hunting---i just think its so stupid...we don't even really like the meat that well-so why would anyone get up early to go set in the freezing cold...just to get the chance to shoot a deer..sometimes they go hunting all season and never even get one! I just don't understand the importance of it..But I'm going to try really hard to not gripe this year....We'll see how that goes..
I got a dishwasher this week! its my early xmas and bday present...we had to cut some cabinets out to fit it in..but it was worth it! I do 3 full loads by hand a day so it will be so nice to just throw them in the dishwasher and let them do themselves....Caleb was SO good yesterday..my little angel baby..Eli learned how to play bowling and has played nonstop since...I've had a bad migraine that has lasted all week...If i take 2 Excedrin it takes the migraine away but I'm still really sick at my stomach from it...Gotta go to work tomorrow so hopefully it wont be as bad..Going grocery shopping today..should be fun-sad but its my big outing for the week..Caleb is walking everywhere holding on to things..Chrystal was really sick yesterday..vomiting everything-i know christy was really worried about her getting dehydrated. When Caleb woke up for his 3 a.m. bottle i seen Christys car down at Beckys so im betting they took her to the hospital. I hope she feels better today. I'd call but im betting Christy is sleeping since she was probably up all night..Eli is being too quite.gotta check on him

Sick Boys

both boys have been sick for a couple days....hopefully they all get better soon..caleb is cranky enough when he isnt sick..he's extremely cranky when he is..His nose is really runny,,but i dont dare wipe it or he goes crazy...Got an appt at 1:00...Then off to grandmas..my car has been making funny noises so hopefully I make it..Did P90x Shoulders and Arms..Already a little sore..probably wont be able to move them tomorrow..

Nov. 6

Havent posted in a couple days...Worked all weekend...Caleb had a fever yesterday so i took him to the doctor...they just said he had a viral infection...He seems better this morning..he's pulling up and walking all over the furniture..Eli walked at 8 1/2 month..Caleb is almost 8 months...Bought Eli Dont Break the Ice game...and he loves it..! he wants to play constantly but it takes too long to put the ice back in...I want to get him hungry hungry hippos...its on sale at Target for $10...it would be fun..I took Eli to my grandmas creek last friday..i dont think i posted pictures...i took several good ones...these i took on my phone,,,and i dont think they are that clear...I love going down to the creek..i spent alot of my childhood down there, and plan on letting Eli play down there alot too..Never by himself though...Probably not even when he's a teenager...I'm drinking a cup of dunkin donuts coffee..and its soo good..great way to start the day..im off to go workout..i need to because i wasnt able to keep away from the halloween candy...

Halloweens over

We had a really good halloween..Eli and Joey both got 3rd place in the haloween parade..we had several trick-or-treaters come by..we went around to a few places..caleb wore a bumble bee costume..Ciara came by and Eli was so happy to see her...Chrystal was dressed as a bear and quinten a horse? or a lion..i cant remember...had a good day...hope i can stay out of the candy bowl.....went to grandmas this evening..took eli for a walk down the creek..it was gorgeous..planning on going back to morrow to get some pictures.

Boring Morning

Last night was boring-didnt do anything-joey did come over to visit which was nice...then i gave the boys a bath. Eli had a little bit of a hard time going to sleep in his new bed..he kept crying and saying he was scared--but after about 30 minutes he fell asleep and slept there all night..It took me a lot longer to fall asleep without him...
This morning is boring..Caleb got me up at 6:30 then after he went down for his first nap i did The Firm Cardio Burn (my favorite)...
Caleb is being an angel today...
Going to take the boys trick-or-treating tonight-because joey is taking Eli to the Halloween parade tomorrow..should be fun...Eli will be the cutest pumpkin ever and Caleb will be Mickey..

New Bed

We went to Columbus today to get a mattress for the toddler bed in hopes of getting Eli to get out of my bed. Hes been sleeping in my bed since he was born-and if it were up to me id let him sleep there forever but David has been commenting that he wants Eli in his own bed...Since Eli's room is all the way across the house and i worry about fires---i've decided to just stick his toddler bed in our room for now..and make him sleep there...Caleb sleeps in his crib in the living room and that works out really well...eventually ill probably move Eli in there also...We have a very comfortable twin bed in Eli's room that i love..but Eli is way too scared to sleep in there...and im scared for him too.
Worked on the playset a little today...we've got it completely done--only thing left is to stain and treat it!! Yipee
Christy came today with her kids--quinten fell asleep in the jumperoo again..Chrystal was a crybaby like always..
Glad i got my weekend over at CVS--5 days off then i go back again..
Bought Croc shoes last week--they are sooo ugly---only bought them because everybody in the world has some except me.....after working in them i decided they felt like slippers...pretty comfortable but i never got over how ugly they are..
I did manage to workout this morning..I did The Firm Upper Body Sculpt...hopeing to walk at least 30 minutes tonight...not trying to lose weight-just inches....
Talked to Morgan last night--i cant help but miss the old days when i had no kids or responsibilities...Caleb is asleep and david is leaving for work...Eli and i are watching Ellen

Sunday

Last night went pretty quick at work..nothing exciting happened..I called David and he sounded very stressed and said both boys were being really bad and i could hear Caleb crying and Eli hollering...So i called mom and asked if she could watch the boys today and she said sure...But when i called this morning she said it was too cold-she hasnt got heat yet-and she was sick..so it looks like David is stuck with both boys again today...i guess if they get out of hand he can take one over to his mamas house....Richard got a deer last night...Eli was very excited about that..I've got about 2 hours before i go back to work--sundays are extremely slow and boring--I always call home and check on everyone a hundred times*

New Toy

Just trying out this blog stuff..im very new to it...We got Caleb this new toy: The Fisher Price Singing Stage..and he just loves it!

Can you tell? He crawls back and forth between this toy and his music chair...Look at those pretty eyes

Sleep

How great it is to be able to sleep all night without having to get up and make bottles in my sleep. Caleb has been sleeping threw the night for almost 2 weeks now and it has been wonderful..Although it did take 2 nights of endless crying to get it to happen. While im typing Eli is lining up all his cars (which all have names)next to my keyboard-and singing happy birthday to me..caleb is crawling around fussing at my feet..better go get breakfast ready for them..Then off to work at the lovely CVS...
