It's been a while but I'm back!

I am seriously enjoying my stay at home with my two children. Wow!!! I have two children and two years ago I had none. Anyway, my daughter is a serious entertainer. She loves performing for an audience and so far I have enjoyed being her audience. She loves her little brother and spends half the day kissing and tickling him. I don't think he really enjoys the tickling though. I am so blessed to have two beautiful and healthy children. My baby boy has gained 1 pound and 4 ounces in his two weeks of life outside the womb so now he weighs a whopping 9 lbs, 8 oz. It's all good though!

Now to talk about my time at home. First of all, I have discovered that all the court shows (Judge Judy, Judge Alex, Divorce Court, etc.) are pretty much spinoffs of Jerry Springer. Crazy people talking about their crazy lives so millions of people can be entertained. How embarrassing! If anyone wants to sue me, please take me to a regular court. I have no desire to end up on TV looking like an idiot.

I've also decided that I won't complain about things I can not change. It's a waste of time and will only serve to make me more miserable. So, why bother? I know this paragraph may be confusing but I don't think I should go into any more details.

Lastly, I have discovered that my husband is even better than I thought before. I mean he has put up with my crap for the last 10 years (4 dating, 6 married) and accepted my faults along with my good attributes. But during these past two weeks he has made sure that I had everything I needed. He has cooked, cleaned, and helped care for the kids. And, he still has to put in long hours at work coming home tired and frustrated. I have to do something special for this man!!!

Well tell Dewayne it is about time and we are proud of him. Keep up the good work. Also, I really enjoyed visiting you and your family. Brayden is so heavy. Denae is a hoot and definitely an entertainer. Enjoy your time at home because you know Dewayne is going to send you back as soon as he can. Take care.

Motherhood

Yesterday, I had something to do so the kids went to their old sitter's house for a few hours. We got home later than intended so I knew I would be rushing to prepare dinner, get them bathed, and settled for the night. Here's what really happened. As soon as we entered the house, Brayden started running around saying "Mommy, I have to pee". So we rush into the bathroom and as soon as his pants are unbuttoned, he starts peeing on himself. I clean him up and decide they can play in the tub while I start preparing dinner. As soon as we get to the kitchen, Danica throws up all over me, herself, and the floor. So, I take her to our bathroom and bathe her. Before I can get her pj's buttoned up, Brayden starts screaming "I have to pee!" Because he just went all over the bathroom floor, I'm a little perplexed. I run to their bathroom anyway only to find out he didn't have to pee, he had to poop and had already dropped two bombs in the bathtub where his s

Baby Making (Or Not)

So, as I've said before, I'm getting my tubes tied this year. I have had so many people tell me they don't agree with this. I've been told that I should let God decide how many children we have or ask him to close my womb. I should wait and see if I want more children in the future. It's too permanent. What if something happens to my children and I decide I want more later. I honestly didn't expect to run in to so much opposition. First of all, it's my body and my decision. Secondly, I am absolutely sure that I don't want more children. And lastly, it really is my decision. The funny thing is that my friend who has 5 children has received a lot of criticism for the size of her family and was told repeatedly that she should've gotten her tubes tied. Now, there are other circumstances in that particular family that would warrant such remarks. But my point is that people are never satisfied. If we continued to have children, I'm sure someone would s

Christmas in September?

Apparently, living in Manila is going to provide plenty of material for me to write about. Here goes: We have been provided several books to help us adapt to life in the Philippines. Something we read was very beneficial for us yesterday. We went to SM which is a department store, furniture store, grocery store, and several restaurants all in one. Danae had to use the bathroom and guess what? There was no toilet tissue. No, they didn't run out. They don't put tissue in the bathrooms at all. No empty tissue holder or anything. Because I read about that, I had a little tissue stowed in my bag to use. In the grocery store, the most overwhelming shock was the stench. The entire back of the store is basically a butcher shop. Surprisingly, there were no flies or anything. But, the smell was gross. Danae held her nose while we looked around in there. I wasn't bold enough to purchase any meat yet. One day, maybe. Or, we'll just become vegetarians while we're here. In the cl
