I've Been MIA...

Well I haven't been on here in awhile. We have just been so busy lately it doesn't seem like I get a chance to stop and rest sometimes.


January passed (thankfully) and February came and went quickly it seemed. I had my 27th birthday on 02/18 and that was about all that was eventful. Had cake/ice cream at Nana's and Albert and I had dinner at the Mexican restaurant and then went and saw a movie, This Means War. Very good movie.


So here we are in March. 3 months into the new year already! Doesn't seem possible, the years just fly by so it seems. Anastacia started soccer and still continues in dance. Triton started t-ball and Preslee and I are just in for the madness!


Here is a brief schedule of our weeks (mind you I work from 8-4p):


Monday - Soccer Practice 5:30pm - 6:30p
Tuesday - Baseball Practice 5:30p - 6:15p
Wednesday - Soccer Practice 5:30p - 6:30p
Thursday - Baseball Practice 5:30p - 6:15p
                   Dance Class 5:45p - 6:45p
Friday - Nothing after work
Saturday - Games (times vary from 9a - 11a)


Saturday following games we normally try and do nothing or housework and same for Sunday. Sometimes I feel like my days run together. Since Albert works nights I am doing this mad schedule by myself. Preslee and I either walk the fields, sit in the car, or do something :)


This week has been a very trying week. Albert & I are about to make a few major changes in our life (no I won't go into detail). I will elaborate more to a few people (if asked) but not many. Some personal things that need to be dealt with (not marriage problems or anything like that, please don't think that). Once these issues have been dealt with then the beans will be spilled (and NO it's not another baby just yet).


I sometimes have had people question me as to why I have let the kids get involved in several activities making my schedule look like the above. Well here's your answer...


My kids are my number one priority. If they want to participate in something and I have the money in my pocket to do it they are allowed to do it (granting its nothing bad). If they want to play a sport, be involved in an organization, or do something fun I will do my best to make that happen. Therefore I will have the craziest, busiest schedule possible (as above) to make them happy and let them be involved. You are only a kid one time and as a parent you want to make that experience for them memorable. You don't want your child to grow up thinking that they didn't get to experience some sports/activities that others did. So with that said I may complain about being tired or busy but it's all worth it in the end.


Tonight (03/09/12) I am having a It Works Wrap party at the house. It's at 6pm if anyone reads this before then and would like to come. It's just a time for us to hang out, listen/learn about a new product, and have some girl time.


With all the above said I'm going to end this. Just wanted to let everyone know I'm still around and still blogging just rarely as my schedule allows!
