I need to water mark my pictures and post them

I dont think I have posted a picture of the twins. I have always been kind of leary of people stealing my pictures. I have had a few friends who have posted pictures and somehow they end up finding someone using their kids pictures as their own. Who would do such a thing is beyond me.
I can’t believe how big my babies have gotten. It makes me sad knowing that they are the last babies we will have. I try to remember how hard it is raising them and we already have too many so that snaps me out of it.

I think when I get the chance I will water mark the pictures and post them on here.







maybe changing it’s location will make it better

I am getting into that “Blah ” mood again. I get into that mood every so often. Everytime I feel like that I rearrange the furniture or I try to buy something new to Jazz up the place. Right now I feel that way because I want new sofa’s and cant afford to get them. I am tired of the sofas we have. They were given to us about 7 years ago and that’s after my in laws had already used them for lord knows how long.

I am not trying to sound mean but I want more modern furniture than what we have right now. I am not trying to offend anyone but these sofa’s look like the kind my grandma used to have in her house. I have thought about going to those rent to own places but they would end up costing us more money.

I think I am going to buy a sofa cover to cover both sofa’s till I can afford to buy new couches. In the meantime I think I will go and rearrange my house.







I will do the best I can

I am a little bummed out that the job thing didnt work out. I am glad though that I didn’t start working for a company that was doing illegal stuff or taking advantage of people. I would never want to take advantage of anyone. I dont care how much money they offered me to be mean and unfair. I have my integrity and honesty. There are many things that can be taken away from you but your integrity is something you can choose to lose.

I wanted to buy a few electronics but I guess that is going to have to wait til hubby has a bonus or til I can find anotehr job. It sucks too because I had my heart set on a new stereo and I wanted to my kid a little t.v for her birthday that is coming up.

I am sure she will be okay with whatever we get her but I really wanted to get her something big this year.







Gut feeling and a detective hubby

I had an interview today. It went okay but something about the place didnt seem right. I have done telemarketing before but this place just rubbed me the wrong way. I was offered the job and all day I felt a knot in my stomach. I just felt off and was bothered by the feeling all day. I told my hubby how the interview went and that the place seemed a little bit off.

My hubby did some research and found alot of complaints on the place and said that people where complaining that the telemarketing place was a scam. I told him that I had a bad feeling all day and was feeling uneasy about working there. I am glad my hubby didn’t disregard my feelings and went digging to see what information he could find on the place before I went to work there.







I want a house makeover

My friend asked me to go with him to take a look at some properties. I agreed since my morning was pretty much free to do whatever. I fell in love with one of the properties we saw. If I had money to buy the house I would have. I had never seen glass tile before and the way this house had the glass tile set up in the kitchen made me want to buy the house.

I am so tired of my house looking so plain. I want to color the walls different colors but the hubby and I cant agree on what colors we want. I also want nice countertops liek those marble ones but hubby thinks its to expensive. I think of it as an invesment since we will be living in this house a mighty long time.

I know we dont have the money to do it right now but sometime in the future would be nice. I want my house to look cozy and colorful not these beige walls that the house came with.







It still bothers me to the core

You know I keep replaying yesterday in my mind. The first thing I went to do today is buy locks to change on the security door and a bolt lock to out higher on the door. I keep thinking that if I had one of those ADT security systems Bam-Bam would have never walked out.

As soon as the hubby gets home I am going to have him help me change the locks on the doors. I also bought both the boys id bracelets. When the twins get a little bit older I am going to buy them some bracelets too. I cant help but keep thinking what would have happen if we lived in a busy street where cars drove constantly. Or what would have happend if no one saw him walking around. Luckily he didnt walk far but that is still scary.

You cant take your eyes off any kids not even for a few minutes. I need one of those sensors on the doors and windows too. You know the ones that beep and let someone know when a door or window has been opened. Everyone keeps thinking I am going overborad but I dont feel I am. My four year old is a very smart kid and he is constantly getting into things so I think that taking the proper precautions is not going overboard.

I think that any mother would have reacted the same way I did. I could hardly sleep last night and I kept checking all the doors and making sure all the doors were closed and locked good. I am really thinking about buying a security system after this incident.

I dont take things lighty . If buying a ADT security system will make me feel better than that is what I will have to do.







I cant believe he did that

I feel emotionally distraught right now. Last night well more like last evening my four year old went and inlocked the door and walked outside and down the street. Thankfully the neighbor saw him and brought him back. I cannot believe he figured out how to open the door. We even have a security door and he opened that door too.

I am so glad we live in a cul-de-sac because if we didnt I dont even want to think of the consequences. My four year old is too smart for his own good. I am going to have to look into better locks than the ones I have on my door right now.







The house needs some order

I run nonstop during the week gettting the kids to school and trying and I do mean trying to tidy up the house. Its hard keeping the house clean when I have six kids running around ( I should say 4 running and 2 crawling around) the house and leaving toys and books and shoes and clothes all over the place. I often think that if I had laminate flooring the floor wouldnt look so bad. I often say if the walls had nicer paint on them then the kids finger marks wouldnt show up on the wall so much. When I get the chance I plan on painting those walls and if I can change the floors and do a complete makeover.

I need to get the kids in a routine of picking up their toys. They must think that since I am the mom that I have to pick up after them too. They are getting to an age where they can pick up after themselves. I dont think that having them start picking up after themselves is too much to ask. How old were your kids when they started picking up after themselves ?
