Mommy

Before I begin I want to start this post with a little shoe therapy. I was shopping on Bluefly.com this morning and came across the most adorable Yves Saint Laurent Boots, here's the link http://www.bluefly.com/Yves-Saint-Laurent-black-suede-Gaby-platform-boots/cat20448/304715201/detail.fly This is a total "I wish" moment! I think I am going to try to convince my hubby that this is a must have *laughs hysterically*. I don't think it's going to work. :(


Now to move on to my real reason for todays post. I am going to start with telling you that my sweet and adorable little children are EVIL!!! They have gotten into to every thing this morning. It's almost as if they sat down last night and had a discussion about all the things they could possibly destroy today. I cleaned my house last night before I went to bed, it wasn't spotless, but it was pretty clean. It is now 10:30 am and my house already looks like a tornado has came through it.

They have spilled cereal with the milk still in it, all over my dining room.
They have took all of the files out of my filing cabinet in my office.
They have destroyed about 5 VHS tapes (don't care too much about those, just sucks to clean up) and threw them all over my living room.
They put band-aids all over my kitchen floor.
They TP-ed my downstairs bathroom.
They took all of the bedding off of their beds and dumped out both of their toy boxes.
They emptied my dirty clothes hamper all over my room and then dumped lotion all over the clothes.
They decided to see how much toilet paper they could fit in the toilet in my bathroom.
*Thankfully I had the other upstairs bathroom locked*

I am completely exhausted!! I have drank about 3 cups of coffee this morning, and I don't even drink coffee! Although I must say, This Hazelnut coffee is delicious! Everytime I would go to clean up one of their messes, they would go to another room and make a whole new mess. They are getting waaaaaay too smart for me.

So far today has completely sucked!! I am hoping that I will be able to manage mopping all of my floors without turning around to see little footprints all over the spots I have already done.

Dedicated List Maker

I have decided that I am going to make a list of all of the things I want to accomplish before I am 21. My birthday is only two months away so I guess I have a lot of work to do! I absolutely love making lists, I make lists about everything. It is such an easy way to keep track of everything in my life. So here is my list of things to do before I am 21.


1. Lose some weight. This is very important to me! I have never been a super skinny person, but I did at one point in my life look rather good. I managed to go right back to my original size after having both of my daughters with no effort at all. Then about a year ago I let myself go, so now it is time to pick myself up and get to work!!

2. Start reading again. I used to be able to read huge novels in one day. I could sit for hours just reading and sipping a soda. It was probably the most peaceful time in my life.

3. Make some friends. I just moved to a new post and I have yet to make any friends. My new neighbor is kinda cool, but I want friends that I can really be myself with, as of right now I have maybe 2 friends that are like that, 1 is in Ohio and 1 is in North Carolina. So I would really like to have at least one that is in the same state as I am.

4. Go on a road trip. I'm not talking about any type of road trip, I've been on a million road trips in my lifetime. I want a no-kid, no real destination, care free, fun road trip.

5. Have a serious conversation with my husband. As easy as this may sound, I have been trying for over a year to have a serious conversation with him and it never works. He always has to crack a joke or burst into song(you would have to see it) in the middle of me talking.

6. Listen. Yet another thing that seems so easy yet it is so hard for me to do. If you've ever met me you will understand. I never stop talking, so it makes it really hard to listen (I think this one and #5 might go together).

7. Find a face wash that doesn't make me break out. I have been trying for as long as I can remember to find a face wash that doesn't make me break out, I guess I have really sensitive skin or something.

8. Find a shade of lipstick that looks good on me. I always wear clear lip gloss but I seriously would like to find some lipstick that doesn't make me look like a clown.

9. Hang curtains in my bedroom. Right now all I have are blinds, every other room in my house has curtains including my guest room, yet my own bedroom doesn't have curtains.

10. Organize. My house is so unorganized it's not even funny, I have like 4 junk drawers, which I think means I have too much junk.

11. Put my daughter in the Little Sunburst Pageant. She really wants to do it and I know she'll win ;)

12. Spend more one-on-one time with each of my daughters. I'm always with them, but they never really get one-on-one time, so I really want to do that for them.

I'll add more to this list later, Time to mow the lawn, yay me! NOT.

New Blogger

So, Here I am! I never thought I would have a blog, it just never seemed to make much sense to me, but I guess this was inevitable. I have always loved to write and now it is to the point where I really don't have much of a choice. I have so many thoughts going through my head at all times, it is truly exhausting! Seriously, Who wakes up at 2 am thinking about what they're going to cook for dinner next week?! I'll tell you who, ME! So I have decided that this is my new way to clear my mind so that maybe I can have some peace and quiet in my mind for at least a few minutes out of the day.

The more I think about it, the more I think that maybe this could be fun. I have tried doing things like this before, but it never seems to work out for me. I always hold back certain things that should probably be the first things I talk about, because i'm worried about someone seeing it. How stupid is that!? I have decided that this time I will truly bear all.

So I guess this is where I introduce myself. My name is Stephanie, I am 20 years old (21 in 2 months!) and am married with two children. Wow, that sounds bad! Well, if it makes it any better, my kids are ages 3 and 2, so I wasn't having children at age 14 or anything crazy like that. My husband is in the Army so we move around alot. I am currently attending college, but I am still very confused about what I actually want to do with my life, I was originally going to school to be a Paralegal, but quickly realized that I would absolutely hate to do that for the rest of my life. So, now i'm stuck in limbo, I have no idea what I want to be, which sucks!

I guess that's all for now. Today just happens to be a pretty busy day, I'll write more later!
