Mommy's horrible, no good very bad WEEK!!

Ok so maybe not a horrible week more like last few 3 days that feels like a week....... Monday and Tues were great.... snow day --perfect....... then Wednesday came along! Emma caught that awful virus going around and I do not repeat DO NOT like throw up! I can deal with just about anything but that?? G R O S S ( or so I thought.... yes it gets better!) so that was a full 24 hours and bless her heart she did so good getting to the bathroom or a trash can but O the clean up again GROSS ( sorry if this is too much info but gotta vent!) then came Thurs... Cash tracked dark brown, nasty mud ALL over my carpet after the boys begged me to go outside and I was thinking while upstairs... if they come in Jaxson will take off his shoes but Cash ummm no AND with such a wet backyard---- Yes I knew better so I caused it but STILL, add on Daddy working way late (April I know you feel like telling me hush...) so no carpet guys to the rescue so I scrubbed ( I mean blotted, honey:) ) up the muddy mess, AND not being able to sleep at night for some reason ( I'm not at that stage of pregnancy am I??) I am tired. Ok so today- fresh start O happy day, right?? ha ha ha ha we were getting ready to leave for the library at 9 o clock and I smelled it.... Mr. Stinky Cash had pooped his pants- he has been doing soo good! *** I was using pull ups for a save all during the day so I wouldn't have to be on him as much well I knew I had to bite the bullet and have him wear undies, so those cute little days of the week gymboree undies he got for Christmas-perfect! OK back to it..... so like I said he really has been doing great and of all days/weeks to do it! It was G R O S S ( see told ya it got better ummm worse....) so I sit him on the potty trying to decide do I save these cutie undies ( no more Friday underpants??) or trash em? The FruGal in me says"O just wash em" and the Germaphobe in me said " NO WAY" and this wasn't an easy put some in the tiolet mess it was just plain nasty - so much so that Cash --while he is the gagger of the family-- takes a look while sitting on the toilet at his underoos and gags so much he throws up his breakfast-- O Lord HELP!!!!! R u all laughing at this point.. its ok if you are I will never know--- so as I type this all out I am starting to laugh ( a little), a smile has returned to me and the fruGal in me won- I washed everything out and then son ( washed him as HE laughed!) then disinfected bathroom and tub........ O whata week someone show me some love!!! lol Yes we are still going to library and I am putting undies back on Cash even though I am officially 1 hr 31 min behind schedule and ready to call it a day :(!!!!

Morning:)


Getting ready to start my day... I know many of you are up and out already but that's how we roll on the 3 days at "home" for homeschool!
So I do NOT forget this conversation had to post what my oldest boy said to me just now ( ha my oldest.. I am going to have 3 boys!! I still can't believe it:)!!)


"Mommy?"

"morning buddy, whatcha need?"

"you think I'm all growd up now, huh?

" yeah, your getting to be a big boy".....

"Nooooo you think I'm all growd up because I can button my Pjammies, right?"

"yeah buddy, I do!" :)


( thought in my head...but not too fast, ok"?? then lots of giggles !!)


Have a great Thursday and as promised pics below!

co op:)

So no pics today either boooo I know I love to look back on my blog for that reason alone since no scrappin' is being done over here !! We have all gone to laptops which I LUV but the camera card doesn't fit in drive or whatever its called so I have to GO to the store and make a cd which I know that's kinda lame but A. I keep forgetting and B. I want to use the FULL 200 pics aloud on cd so I can get my 2.99's worth! :) Back to the title-- today was our first meet up for second semester Coop and I am MUCH more excited this semester!! Not only do I have my same class ( our coop we joined goes like this: teach a class- yourself and two other teachers- on the unit study the coop agrees on for the semester all lesson plans are up to u ...... and its for all ages nursery -- highschool 1 day a week) of 5/6th graders but we are doing Life Science Unit Study and my weeks I am teaching is all about the animal kingdom- Fish, sea creatures,birds, mammals, and such so I am pretty excited ( gosh I AM becoming one of THOSE homeschool ladies!!! lol) It is a lot of prep work ( so any ideas are welcomed......) and I'm really trying to keep ahead of planning for our "home" homeschool stuff so somedays I do get overwhelmed with all the work this homeschool year has been but my children are really learning ( who'da thought?? tee hee!) and God was right ( HE does have a way of always being that way huh??) I CAN do this just maybe not like everyone else!! So sorry for the long "talk" post but be ready for pics soon and if homeschooling or starting this coming fall -- check out a coop and be ready for fun! Oh yeah and do say a little prayer for me on time.... I do like this coop I don't so much like to get up and out the door by 8am!! lol

PS- Thanks Holly for watching Jaxs- I actually got to PAY attention to what the other ladies were saying!! :) He had a blast with Elijah and Aron:) U da best!!
