WHAT'S THE DEAL?

It's 10:15 a.m. and I just barely forced Olivia out of bed. Usually by this time of morning I am ready for a nap. Caleb woke up once at 4 a.m. and quickly went back to sleep. Needless to say I actually am not sleep deprived today! So with 2 sleeping kids you would think I would be getting some things done: get my work-out in, laundry, vacuum, clean the house. Well of course none of that happened. Instead I got on the computer and thought about all the things I need to get done. You cannot even walk into my front door without tripping over something or someone. The past two days of sun have made me selfish. I have forgot about house work and takin' every opportunity to be outside. At this point I think my mental health needs more work then the dirty kitchen and the sunshine does wonders. I took a bike ride on Monday (not long enough) but it's amazing how it rejuvenates me and I've been trying to work out at least an hour a day. Today I have plans to clean my house but here's what will probably happen instead: sit on the computer until 11, realize how late it is and work out until noon, realize Olivia needs lunch, 1 p.m. think I stink must take shower, 2:30 p.m. finally all clean for the day need to go grocery shopping, 4 p.m. finally home from grocery store.....damn my house needs to be cleaned but Caleb needs to eat, 5 p.m. time to get dinner ready, 5:45 eat dinner, 6:30 why am I so tired? I need to clean the house, 6:45 plop my butt on the couch and watch T.V. until 11 p.m., wake up tomorrow and do it all again. Life goes on.







Yesterday Kacy took some awesome pictures of my kids. So far the pictures I have seen are awesome! I can't believe they are my kids they are so dang cute. Yes I am one of those moms who brags about her children constantly and I don't care. Thanks Kacy for the pictures and all your creativity.













Last but not least an update on Bazil. Well after much praying and talking Cody and I decided to give Bazil surgery. She went in last Thursday and is still recovering. I talked to the vet yesterday and the biopsy of the lumps shows that the cancer is much more advanced this time, ultimately we probably only have a few more months with her. I try not to think about it. Right now I'm just happy that she isn't bothered by the lumps and we have a few more months to spoil her and enjoy her. I guess we should've said our goodbyes because the surgery cost a lot more then we were told and we have our own hospital bills to pay, but I like to think there is a reason we went for it besides selfishness.







Our lazy morning












Sleeping on the couch.





Finally eating breakfast at 10:00 a.m. Or should we call it brunch?





I hate this thing on her head more then she does. My newly painted walls have scuff marks all over them from her. One more week and it comes off!!
