I have such a forgetfull brain.

I had a great post, in my head, in my sleep last night. As I settle down to write I cannot for any amount of money remember what I am going to write about. (insert rolling of eyes=)
I had to step away for a moment to help my son with his strawberries and I had to tell him numerous times to bring me his bowl. I want him to obey the first time I tell him something and I want him to obey with the right attitude. I can hear you now, dear reader, it's just a bowl of strawberries. Right? I say exactly. So insignificant that it shouldn't be an issue. If he learns on the little things the big ones, whatever you deem a big one, will be automatic. Miss Olivia is learning this also. She says no to everything, whether she means yes or not. I want to teach them they need to come the first time. I will admit, I am not very consistent, and I am praying for help with that. Mostly when I am on the phone, or cooking. I know Ian knows when I am otherwise engaged to act up. Olivia just follows suit.
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6

Just some thoughts.

I have been thinking about changing the "tone" of this blog to something other than whats going on in my day, and the life of my family. I think I still will post about that, but there are other things I want to do with this and am unsure of how to start. I would like to think I can change and accept it easy, but I know I am fooling myself. I started this to help other people know what was going on with my life and I still want to do that. But I feel the need to do more, so I will.
So, on with all the caffeine driven posting and hang in there. If I can type it you can read it!!

It's the day!!!

As my son would say as waking up in the morning, Mommy, it's the day! So excited to meet the new day.

So, yes its the day. My life and that of Steve seems to be turned around, as his poor body is adjusting to graveyard. (Why do they call it that?) He sleeps in the day, and I seem to be up all night, as I cant seem to sleep. Funny thing is I am having a hard time sleeping, when I do, in my own bed. I find myself on the couch or on the spare bed. Go figure. Anyway, I have been trying to fill our days with quiet activity. Today, Steve is sleeping in our bed, as apposed to the spare bed, which he s="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">outfittted to be dark. He hung blankets over the window and put my cutting mat up. The darkness gives this room an other world feeling. Nothing like "Lord of the Rings" or anything like that, but just a very diffrent feeling. Plus, its a mess. I shake my head as I say that, like, oh well. I soon will organise and clean. Maybe Saturday. Maybe not.

I am making beans and bacon (there it is again) for todays meals. I am excited to have some. I have only been boinling them for half an hour now and the smell is just knocking me out. I love it.

The ultrasound went very well yesterday. We are going to have another boy. I am going to enjoy picking out a name and figuring out what to do with all the stuff we are going to get out of storage. I am having problems loading pictures so I will post the ones I got later, maybe.

For the reat of the day I will be trying to stay motavated, folod the laundry, and pick the living room and kitchen floor up. I hope Steve dosnt mind if I vaccume....

Where have you been?

In an effort to try to stay current in the blog, I am failing miserably. I have been trying to stay off the computer, and have succeeded because of some technical stuff, but I am really still wanting to post. Really!





Lots have been going on, none really of great merit. Steve found a job, and we are on our way back to our feet. The electricity is still on and we have running water....What more could a gal want?





My camera is broken, so all of the grand ideas of posting a project are out the window. I have a 35 mil. my father gave me when I was in high school, but it doesn't have a flash. I would have to pay for the pictures to be put on a disk, blah blah, blah.





Steve and I had out 7Th year anniversary yesterday. Take that for what it is. Steve said it felt like we had been married for 20. Take THAT for what it is....





I find out the sex of my unborn child tomorrow. Lets pray that the bionic rays of the ultrasound don't give it some sort of mental issue. That was a joke. Not that I WANT my child to have some sort of mental issue. Considering it will be a child of mine, bad bad joke.





I am really not in the mood for this. I want to eat some cookies and bacon. Not at the same time and not really in that order.
