How do I do what?
Everyone always says I dont know how you do it. One day I am going to just look at them and ask them do what? Cause I dunno what they are talking about. We have 6 kids, my husband is gone more then he is home. My life is nuts. Its 2am and I am up cleaning. I have a 7 month old in her jumper bouncy thing talking away to a slinky light. Did you know they made light up slinkies? Its kind of awesome to see. I will have to take a pic. I have a one year old who had a late nap so he is up laying on the floor watching cartoons. If I put him to bed he screams mama over and over and over at the top of his lungs. I have other children to think about. Ones that go to school that needs sleep more then he needs to learn to lay down be quiet and go to sleep. Wrong? Eh maybe. Scared for life? I doubt it. We are quickly approching deployment. I am dreading it. It is going to be a long 8 months. I keep telling myself that I did 7 years with out him, 8 months is nothing. I am yet to really believe myself. I keep trying though. I have a whole list of things that needs to be taken care of. Wills, POAs, Emergency plans ect. It makes my head spin to think about it.

Julie and Julia
So my husband and I watched this movie last night. It prompted me to invest in a cook book. The first one that I have bought since my husband and I got married. Now granted we havent been married long but this is also the first real cook book I have bought since I have been an adult. Wow. I have a whole list now that I want. I want to cook more. And better. And healthier. I can do this. I want to do this. And it gives me something to do while my husband is deployed later this year. He will have adventures all around the world. I will have them in our kitchen. This could be fun!
Project 365 update
I have photos. I just have no camera cord to take photos from camera to computer *sigh* My goal for tomorrow is to have my three photos to start off the project posted. I just need my poor camera cord.
Wonder if the bedroom of laundry death has it hostage?

Project 365
So I have this blog. And I always think I need to use it. Yet I never seem to. Something about time and there only being 24 hours in a day. Someone needs to do something about that ya know....
So I was reading about a few people doing this project 365 and I was like HEY I can do that! And wow look I have a blog.... it would force me to use it lol. It also gives me something to do while my husband is gone most of next year.
So there you have it folks. In a few days I will start this. I will. I will keep up with it all next year. Honest.
Guess I better go find my camera then hu?

So this morning, I am laying in bed feeding Juliette... and I hear this CRASH.. I knew the kids were up in their rooms waiting for me... So turns out they broke the light bulb on the girls lap... it just happens to be one of those energy savers that when broke turns its self in to 3 zillion tiny pieces...
So we do breakfast, and get dressed. Why is it even though I put ALL the clothes away yesterday I cant find shorts for the boys this morning? I mean wtf is that about?
Juliette is a fussy thing, I am trying to clean up my kitchen and do laundry.. you know thinking I MIGHT find the boys shorts? The kids are up and down the stairs and all of a sudden Trystin starts crying. Comes down bleeding.. what did you do??? Hurt his knew on the broken bulb that I am YET to get cleaned up but didnt I tell you a half a dozen times to stay out of that room AND close the door? *sigh* Clean knee have kid fall down the stairs. Alarik is screaming cause he is hungry and tired. Oh did I mention that he fell off the bunch at breakfast and has a fat lip now? But at least IT stopped bleeding...
Someone locked the bathroom door upstairs. I cant get it unlocked. Light is on. Gonna stay that way till daddy fixes it. Mr. NoBody did it by the way.
Get Alarik fed and in bed, feed Juliette, feed kids... do laundry... register for Operation Homefronts Back pack brigade.. free backpacks with school supplies for the kiddos in school. Come to the realization that Athena is going to need school clothes. OY. Can we please have the money that they took out of our check back now? *sigh*
Fed the kids, got dinner in the crockpot and resume cleaning house.
ALL BEFORE NOON
No wonder I feel like I need a nap.... but I smell a stinky tush and I think its Nikholas... can someone explain to him the concept of potty training... cause its just not happening for me.

6 kids and a dentist
I swear my life should be a reality show lol. It would be entertaining that is for sure!
So Friday I took all 6 kids to the dentist. 5 of them had appts.
Soooo everyone got xrays, teeth cleaned, and then checked....
Athena has 1 small cavity between the teeth that needs to be taken care of
Karin has two like that
Trystin we will come back to
Nikholas has no problems other then the front of his teeth where they were eatten away by the formula he was on as a baby and they need to be filed down since they are jagged.
Alarik is good to go!
Trystin oy... he has 4 small cavities between the teeth that need to be filled. The peice of gum between the to front teeth needs to be cut as it is huge and causing his teeth to grow and shift badly. AND he needs his teeth filed down.... they want to do it all at once, in the hospital with him asleep. Oy.
You should have seen the site though. All the kids, the dentist, his assistant... it was comical. He did great with them and the staff is awesome. I am glad we are going there. But oy lol. They were asking a zillion questions and the dentist was like well I would tell you the verdict after I check them but I dotn want to forget so he would do an exam and then tell me and then move on.
Reality show... seriously lol.
