INSANITY round 2!
I'm starting Insanity again. I'm looking for someone who would be interested in doing the workout with me. Well not with me, but at the same time as I do. Are you in? I discovered that is much much "easier" to do it with someone else.
I was thinking of having a system through txting each other everyday after the workout. That way we keep each other accountable.

Best Cake Ever!
My friend Natalie made this awesome cake for me. It was THE BEST CAKE I HAVE HAD FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS!
So moist, so delicious. Chocolate goodness I tell you!
The best part, Dulce de Leche! Just like home aahhhh...
Dulce de Leche is something like caramel but 100 times better. Richer and creamier. I bought some online and requested to Natalie if she would put it n my cake. Its was a trip back home, no kidding. I loved it soo much! Thanks you Natalie!

Sometimes my kids make me wonder...
If I'm a good mom at ALL!
Alex: Look mom!
Alex: Mario killed Kirby. There's the blood all around.
Mom: Alex! I thought Mario was a good guy!
Alex: he is a good guy!
Mom: Do good guys kill their friends?
Alex: No mom, its just on the video game.
Mom: Alex this picture makes me sad. Let's not draw pictures that are mean. Let's just draw nice things.
Alex: OK mom, I will make a nice one.
Funny thing, when Alex whent to bed he asked if he could take "mean Mario" to his bedroom. Mmm...

The problem word.
Do or did your kids have a "problem word" as toddlers? Well, my sweet Benny does and I'm pretty sure Alex did as well but I can not remember what it was for him.
By problem word I mean that they are trying to say something and it just comes out terribly wrong. For Ben is the word TRUCK. And, it wouldn't be much of a problem if he wasn't into trucks so much, but he is.
He is dropping the bomb ALL DAY and EVERY WHERE! And, I'm sorry but as the bad mom as I am, I can't help it but just laugh. Anyways... We are trying not to make a big deal about it, because you know kids... the more you say no, the more they do it.
We love our cute little monkey. He just gets cuter by the minute.

A little of nothing.
When Momma is sick school should be cancelled for your children, don't you think?
My awesome husband stayed home yesterday and I layed on bed ALL DAY. I wish I could do that when Im not sick. I feel like that should be a must for every mom. Today I was on my own and I had to drag myself out of bed and deal with the " I don't want to go to school" dramma as well. Its crazy how when you have kids, you get to find the strengh to get through your day. I am grateful for that.
The Holidays are over. Yes. Do you feel lost after the Holidays? I feel like I don't know what the heck I am supposed to be doing. Thankfully, it goes away... eventually :D
I want to do so many things and I don't know where to start. I want to make things better. Make myself better. Be better for my children and husband. I need my life to be organized. I also need energy to acomplish these things. That's what it all goes down to, ENERGY. I feel like I never have any.
What in the world is this post about? you are asking. I dont know. I guess the feeling of guilt for neglecting my blog push me to share my rumbling thoughts. Sorry.
Have a great wednesday!
