Venting
No, I won't take your poll because I have more conservative answers than your options.
No, I can't give the Fraternal Order of Police money because I am poor, and ya'll still give me tickets for stupid things.
No, you don't have my vote in May because you just woke up my sleeping children.
No, I don't need new insurance, I just need my current insurance to stop sucking, so before you call me, please take that up with Mr. Obama.
No, I don't need a home security system, but you might because I am coming through this phone!
NOW STOP CALLING ME!!!!!!!!
Hootie Hoot
Another light-hearted blog:
For some reason Charlie has started called Brady his little "Hootie Hoot." Tonight Charlie was getting out of the bath, Brady was all the way down the hall crying because he didn't want his jammies on. I got Charlie out and he says, "What's wrong with Brady?" "He's just mad because he didn't want to get dressed." Charlie shouts, "Come here you little hootie hoot." Brady takes off like lightening all the way down the hall and pulls up on Charlie's bed. Charlie gives him the sweetest hug. "Dats ok you little hootie hoot." B stops wailing.

I sleep like a baby....
Yes, I do. For a while now I've been thinking about typing some hateful blog along the lines of, "Mothers who have children that sleep, miss out on the true experience of motherhood." Of course, when I am thinking of these hateful things I am usually in mid conscienceless bumping through my living room in the dark stepping on tater-head parts looking for water, a blanket, a diaper....those kind of things.
All that being said, I have to explain. My children don't sleep. Period. My fault I have been told. I am strictly against letting them cry it out. Works for some people perfectly, just not me. Because of this I guess, my boys never learned to fall back asleep when they woke up. There are mornings my body physically hurts to get up because I have been up every two hours, and I am sharing my bed with a 3 year old karate kid with ice cold feet, however, I have come to realize that God gives a mother that little something that carries her sleepy body into the kitchen in the middle of the night for water, or gives the ability to strip sheets and disinfect an "accident" bed in 3 minutes flat, He gives her that sweet little touch of a hungry baby in the early hours to remind her of what true love is, He gives her the smack of little feet in the hall in the dark to warm her heart. God has given me so much. I dare not complain. I know one night will come and I will lay awake in a house empty of children wishing I had these days back. I love these nights and early mornings. I might not be "on top of my game" until I get coffee in my system, but I love every moment.
This morning, for the first time I can remember, Brady woke up with sleep lines because he slept for 4 hours straight last night. Picture worthy I do believe. So, I won't complain, but just know that when you see me in the morning at Food Lion and I look like a train has run over my hair and my clothes don't exactly match........don't judge me. Just smile and think about the wildness of my "stay up all night" babies :)

Dr. Baker
OK, I know I blab about this too much, but I love our boys' doctor. My
Mid-Wife works in the same office as their pediatrician as well as the
doctors that see me. Won-der-ful. They know us all by name. They also
know Charlie's alias, Pie Da Man. They also enjoy watching my babies
grow. I call them weekly, yes still, with stupid mother questions. They
always act like I am normal, and answer my question right away. I love
walking into an office where I really feel cared for. It's not about the
money there. It never has been. Anyway. Here's the point, today I
walked in on Charlie and Brady playing "Dr. Baker." I missed the best
part, but caught the very end. If anyone here has ties to Dr. Baker
please pass this onto him. I'm not sure of his e-mail, although I am
sure if I had him paged at midnight and asked him he would just laugh
and tell me. :) So, here's to a great doctor who has left a big
impression on some growing little guys.

....I pushed out my brains too.
Yes, I am reminded again why I am in my sister's club, "When I pushed out my kids my brain came too."
In the three minute solace of my life that I call "the shower." I was so excited to have time to shave my legs tonight. Both done in two minutes flat, no interruptions. Only problem was......razor still had the shield on it. Oh well, I get effort points anyway.
