Happy Halloween!

So my sis and I took the kids trick or treating last night and they had a blast! They filled up one and a half buckets (the plastic pumpkins you get for .80 cents). Wonder how long the candy will last?

My little man

my dad, little man, Joe

Although little man is only 4 sometimes I think he is much older. He is a combination of my dad, my cousin Joe, and my husband which, if you knew any of them you'd be scared too. He is such an amazing little boy and so damn smart if you ask me!



Some randomness of little man:



"Mom wipe my boot(butt)" (after he poops in the potty)

"Where are my cars?"

"Where is (insert a family member that we live with even if they are in the room)?"

"Can I have a rice christmas tree?" (rice krispy treat)

"I don't like that Happyween store"(He calls Halloween, "Happyween")



I decided to write a random post about my favorite little man because he makes me so happy and so mad all wrapped into one. He says the most craziest things and does the strangest things that you can't help but love him for it.

Mommy blogger movie!

I saw this on Momma Kat's blog and the trailer looks awesome! I love that Uma Thurman looks "normal" then she usually does! Unfortunately the movie isn't going to be in my area yet but I'm hoping that it will get enough popularity to show everywhere (like *ahem* Paranormal Activity which I am itching to go see!)

Where has my life gone?

I seriously think I'm losing my mind.

Seriously.

Since my son has turned the age of 4 my days go like this:

Little Man: Mom! Sissy hit me!
Me: I'm sorry, Lila, tell your brother you are sorry!
Lila: Sorry bwother

LM: Mom!
Me: (trying to concentrate on something or doing something that needs to be done so I tune him out)
LM: MOOOOMMM!
Me: (continuing)
LM: MOM!
Me: Whaaaattt?
LM: Sissy is getting into (insert something that a child gets into all the time)
Me: ARG!

LM: Mom, where are we going?
Me: Gotta pick up aunt Manda
LM: Why?
Me: Because she just got off of work
LM: Why?
Me: Because she did.
LM: What kind of work?
Me: Seriously what happened to my life?

I need a job.

Seriously.

Ok, so I'm not so tech-savvy, sue me!

So I had my Blackberry storm for a grand total of 19 days and I liked it...somewhat. I liked the phone but Verizon was going to charge me too darn much each month just to have it and with no military discount...shame on them! So I went crawling back to AT&T and got myself the Iphone. I didn't get the big fancy one, just the 8GB one but thats okay because once I finally get a job I'm going to upgrade!

What I didn't like about my BB Storm? Well, I had to basically push it twice sometimes. I had to select what I wanted and push it again. I am impatient, when I want something done I want it done NOW! I also couldn't figure out how to stop the damn thing from going off each time I had an e-mail or a facebook alert..I guess this is why I gave up wanting to be a computer programmer...

Oh well.

But my Iphone DOES have an app for Starbucks! weeee!

What to do, what to do?

I have been looking for things to do for the kids each day since I don't have a job nor extra income to put them in day care to socialize with other kids. I hate leaving them in front of the television while I'm online constantly looking for jobs. I have done some searching online for activities but I feel like its not enough like I should be teaching them more. I guess my search still continues!

Wii Active update! Weee!






Wii Active has an expansion that has more workouts! I am so super-psyched! I can't wait for it to come out! Due to being broke off my butt I will have to wait for it. I did get done with the 30 day challenge...ahem...3 months after I started but I do have a good excuse thankyouverymuch!

Writer's Workshop


I haven't done Mama Kat's workshop in awhile due to drastic changes in my life(read past posts) so I decided to do this week. I chose the first one well, because of this and this


Yes, I want to go to England!


I know I should have went when I lived in Germany for almost 3 years but I never got a chance to!


*pout*


Now that I know that Valium works for me when I flew from Alaska to Texas I am going to try and make a trip...*ahem* well when I'm not so broke I mean.
*Note: I did see the London Bridge located in Arizona, that was pretty cool!

I love new fall shows!

So when September comes towards an end I get super-excited because...


ITS SEASON PREMIER TIME!!


Okay, I know, getting excited over some shows is lame but hey, I'm a stay at home mom with no life right now!


I got to watch my premiers of The Office, Biggest Loser, Big Bang Theory, and now I have a new fave show called "Modern Family" on ABC. (I just realized I have not watched any shows on ABC since Home Improvement!)



Can we say "freaking hilarious??"


Its about a middle-aged guy played by Ed O'Neill (He was Al Bundy on Married with Children) and he had been married for 6 months to this beautiful Latina woman who gets mistakened for his daughter. She has a son from a previous marriage who is 11.

He has 2 grown children, Claire and Mitchell, and they are just as insane as he is! Claire is married with 3 children and Mitchell is gay and adopted a baby girl from Vietnam with his live-in boyfriend.


If you want to catch the previews go here

Addict maybe?

Ever since my sister gave me one of her ColgateWisps I was hooked! These little brushes of freshness are amazing! I love how it gave me fresh breath and the little freshness balls in the center are just fabulous! I suggest anyone who needs some fresh breath in the middle of the day to pick up these things, they come in 4 to a pack so you can have yummy breath anytime!

What a pain!

So I moved here to Texas from Alaska to pursue an education and had no idea what I got myself into. After forgetting to turn in my spouse *MyCAA form I just decided to find a job...what a freaking hassle! So I'm still job hunting AND still looking for a used reliable vehicle so I don't have to use my mom's Prius.


*If you are a military spouse AND need free money for college, take advantage of it...6 grand!
