So today I actually have a few minutes to spare, Morgan is home sick from school again so both kids are busy watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the one with Johnny Depp. Ok and since I'm on the topic of good ol Johnny, Am I the only one who is totally freaked out about the new Alice and Wonderland Movie? seriously I can't even look at the preview it totally freaks the crap out of me.
SO while the kids are watching the movie and in between fighting I decided its a good time to disinfect the house AGAIN. As usual I do the dreaded bathroom duty, and I just have one question... " IS IT REALLY THAT HARD TO SHOOT THE WATER" ok I know he is not even 4 yet but I would think this would be a pretty easy task, just aim and shoot? am I wrong? I keep finding yellow streaks all the way down and around the toilet. EWE! and yes I have even walked in when he was pretending to be a sprinkler. Do boy ever grow out of this? NO NO NO I am not blaming Joe for any of this.... BUT peeing standing up in the middle of the night in the dark? you never know what could happen..... Just sayin!

Laundry? what Laundry?
Finally Time for a Blog, well Kind of. I mean seriously is there REALLY time for me to be doing this? not really, Its 830pm On thursday night, Morgan is sitting next to me reading a book, Logan just went to bed, Joe is watching cops, and there is a huge pile of laundry just staring at me,screaming to be folded and put away. I however am choosing to ignore it until further notice.
These past few weeks have been busier then normal we have all been sick one after another and you all know that when mommy is sick the whole house falls apart and the earth caves in until mommy is back to normal.
Yesterday I picked up the girls from school (Morgan and Makenna) Usually when they get into the car they are hyper and laughing.This time not so much. Apparantly the whole class got busted for being wild. Although when I asked the girls what happend they refused to tell me. Now these 2 girls are the most well behaved kids in school, seriously I have a hard time seeing them get into trouble, I was trying hard not to laugh. Anyway I never got an answer until 830 that night when Makenna's mom sent me a text asking if Morgan was supposed to write an I'm sorry note to her teacher.. All I found out was the class was wild and Morgan was laughing when she was supposed to be serious.. OYE this is just the begining.
Today Logan was the Red Power Ranger ALL DAY, riding his bike and running down the street as fast as he can trying REALLY hard to get his cape to fly. then ME holding his kite in the street while he is a Power Ranger running down the street trying to get this damn kite to fly WHEN THERE IS NO WIND! AT least he told me I was pretty.

I don't want to be the first to wave!
Logan started preschool!!! I am thrilled at how easy it was. All I had to do was buy him his very own Spider man backpack. HA, That is all it took. He NEVER takes it off, I'm sure he would sleep with it on if I let him.. He loves school, and I love that he loves school, its only for 2 hours and 45 min 3 days a week, but we can afford it and HE LOVES IT! I can even use it as a threat... " Logan if you don't behave you can't go to preschool" amazing.
So we used to have a friend, a good friend. well things took place and we are no longer friends.. its like that saying " friends for a season" well I guess that season is over.. Anyway today was a sad day for my Morgan, she saw this friend and said to me " mommy, I used to hug her.. I said I know honey, I said you can still wave, I betcha she would wave back" Morgan said but I don't' want to be the first to wave". What is mommy supposed to say to that?" so I just told her its okay, and if you ever feel like you want to then its OK". Morgans response was. " mom I just don't want to talk about it anymore", the sad thing is she is acting like more of an adult then us adults, I guess we should learn something from my almost 7 year old.

ARTWORK FOR HAITI
Ok so I just have to brag about my kids and tell you all how proud I am.
Morgans friends decided that they want to do something to help the people of Haiti after the earthquake and they asked Morgan and Logan to help.
These wonderful kids ages 3 -8 decided to sell their artwork for 5.00 each, the money they make goes directly to the AMERICAN RED CROSS HAITI. They have been painting and drawing for days, selling artwork left and right. We need more family support though. All you need to do is send a check made out to America Red Cross Haiti relief for 5.00 per artwork, and I will send you your very own piece of art by Morgan and Or Logan Botto.

Mommy Needs A Time Out"
Ok so its been a few days since my last post, but that is basically been because Logan has been making me nuts, and I really dont' want to write things that are not very nice.
Today was a hard day again, I don't understand the whining. I mean seriously, it seems to be getting worse EVERY SINGLE DAY! I think its a boy thing because I don't remember Morgan ever being this bad. Today I actually had to lock myself in my room for 30 sec with Logan pounding on my door, and Me yelling back " MOMMY NEEDS A TIME OUT" Actually the truth is Logan needs to go to preschool. You think I would have sent him a long time ago since I was a preschool teaher for 13 years Before I had kids. But #1 its soo expensive to send him, and with me not working its just not possible, and #2 99% of the schools in this area are all Christian based, and being Jewish, thats not a really good idea.
Thanks to my WONDERFUL friend Nicole, I actually got a little break today, she offered to take Logan to her house to play, AND pick up Morgan from school. She also gave me a number for a daycare that I can afford for 2 days a week. I do want to go back to work, but even tho my kids drive me mad at times, I just can't see them being raised by someone else. I feel so lucky and blessed to be able to stay home with my kids for as long as I have. YES we have had to sacrafice. We dont' take a lot of vacations, we don't drive fancy cars, BUT we do have a house, and the kids want for nothing. So the sacarafices we have made are small. I have not missed a moment of my kids lives. Now of course being a stay at home mom is NOT an easy job, sometimes you lose yourself, and may even need a xanex here and there. (oops did I say that out loud).

Princess Consuela Banana Hamock
I knew kids would fight and argue, Heck I did with my sister til we were well into our 20's. Logan and Morgan LOVE each other, it is very sweet at times. Logan will just turn to Morgan and say "I Love you Morgan" and Morgan will grunt under her breath, "I Love you too". When they get along THEY REALLY get along,but when they don't its not pretty, and mommy usually loses her mind pretty fast. I hate to admit but I am a yeller, I really want to change that but man sometimes its just so hard not too.
Last Saturday of course the kids were home all day long, we were having a pretty good day, except for the tattling. The funny thing is, usually its Morgan doing the tattling.. Then its one after the other, over the silliest things. So Finally after a few hours of tattling back and forth, I told my beautiful babes " My name is no longer Mommy" First they laughed at me, but I was very serious and said from now on my name is "Princess Consuela Banana Hammock" (Yes stole it from "Friends") So that day every time I heard "MOOOOMMMMY" I did not answer, or would remind them that I was Princess Consuela Banana Hammock" I was really hoping that this would stop the tattling, but of course I was wrong. The next day Logan and I were sitting on the couch and I told him " Remember my name is Princess Consuela Banana Hammock" He got so sad, and said " No I wanna call you mommy". That was the end of Princess Consuela Banana Hammock'
