Way too much to do and a complaint or two. (Hey, this rhymes.)

Do my days ever end? No. That's the only answer I have. I wake up every day at 5:30 and on weekends, 6. Yeah, seriously 6. No reason, just get up. I leave my house at 6:30 Monday through Thursday and come home around 4 just to leave again at 5:30 for cheerleading practice. Thank god only 2 more practice days and a competition left. Then I come home, cook, clean, do laundry if possible, get kids bathed, shower myself, *(if I remember to) and then study until 1 maybe 2 am. Yep, then I'm up yet again at 5:30. Well, the alarm goes off at 5:15 and I finally haul my ass out of bed at 5:30.

So tonight I get a call from the girl that takes Taren to school every day and they tell me she can't do it tomorrow. Ok, no biggie, I'll call grandma. Grandma says drop her off in the morning and she'll do it. Great! I say to my dear husband, can you just drop the girls off at grandma's, she is on your way. He yells that he'll have to leave the house at 6:30 just to do that and he usually leaves at 6:45 to be at work by 7:30. Really? Um, when you take Nathan to your mother you don't usually leave the house until 6:45. Weird that you can't drop them off to my family member but what ever! (Sorry, I'm sure I'm rambling.)

I'm so tired. I work so hard in every aspect that I'm doing. Cheerleading coach, student, mom, wife, maid........the list goes on. Why, oh why can't you do one simple drop off!!! The thing is, dropping the girls off there is more on the way then dropping Nathan off at your mother's! Guess what he tells me to do. He has the nerve to tell me to get up 15 minutes earlier so I can be out of the house 15 minutes earlier. UGH, the nerve! I'm sorry all you have to do is get up at 6:30, eat your crappy breakfast and go to work. I know how hard it is to come home after a long day of working, sit down to a cold beer and put my feet up. Trust me, I know.

What's my problem? Yes, my husband works hard. Yes, we have a roof over our heads and food in our mouths. Yes, I love him unconditionally. Yes, I do appreciate every single thing he does for us. Yes, I'm tired of telling him how tired I am and maybe one day he'll see this and actually pitch in.

Why should I be the one to get 15 minutes less sleep time? Why can't he just get up and take the kids somewhere instead of me doing 2 drop offs? I do two drop offs two days a week. Nathan goes to one place on Monday and Wednesday and Taren and Kyla go to another. On Tuesday and Thursday Nathan goes to his mother's and he takes him. On Monday and Wednesday I'm constantly late for school. I hate being late anywhere and if you know me, then you know how anal I am about being late for stuff.

Maybe when I fall asleep at the wheel he'll figure it all out.

So, the holidays are coming up. Yeah, I'm a huge holiday lover. Not so much this year. We usually spoil our kids for Christmas. Soooo not going to happen this year. I'm not going to be all " woe is me". I know everyone feels the pinch. It just hurts that I can't do what I always do for them. Just sucks bad. I'm pretty sure Tim and I will just save the money and not get each other anything. It just sucks. I hate being broke!

That's all for now folks. Here are a few pics of the kids for you to enjoy.

I just have nothing to talk about!

Seriously. Nothing. My life is so full of school, cheerleading, home and family it's sick. I love school, cheerleading, home and my family but seriously? Is this it? Yep, this is my life.

School: Hmmm let's see. It's going well. I got all A's this MOD. Go me, go me. Yeah, I was pretty excited. I busted my ass to get those so I truly earned them. It feels really good too. Next I get to take Anatomy. OOOOO fun, I know.

Cheerleading: Well, let's just say the mom I spoke of before. Yeah, she's still a dumbass. I'd like to smack her dead in the face and say helloooooo, your daughter needs to come to practice to be any good at competition!!! The contract we have the parents and kids sign says if they miss more than 3 competion practices their off the comp squad. Does my advisor follow this? Hell no! She's afraid someone won't like her if she kicks a kid off the comp squad. I say bullshit! I'm there every day along with the other kids on the squad practicing their hearts out and busting their asses off to be an awesome competition squad and we are going to have one girl looking like shit. Pisses me off! I know it's not the kids fault and I don't take it out on her. I love the kid, it's the mom that I'd like to beat up.

Home and family: Things are going well. Tim and I are doing well and so are the kids. They are thriving. I cried a little today. I realized that Kyla will be 8 in 3 months. I cannot believe she's going to be 8 years old. My sweet baby girl is growing up. It's the hardest thing ever. Time is flying by so quickly. Those who have little ones, please soak up that time and enjoy it.

Other than being pretty much flat broke and not being able to do anything anymore, like date nights, everything else is going good. I wish I had time for a part time job. We could definately use the money. Or if you just want to send us money we'll gladly take it. *totally joking

That's about it for now. Here's a few pics of the kids for your viewing enjoyment. TTYL

Kyla and Nathan

Taren posing with our halloween decorations. Yeah, your vision isn't screwing with you. That's Chester on the trampoline. I have a hard time getting him off of it. He loves it.
This is baby Mollie. I helped my friend Dawn in the delivery room with her. I got to see it all and I even cut the cord. It was awesome!!!!
Baby Nathan on Thomas. I put this on here just cause he's hot.

Birthday pics!

I totally forgot to post pics sorry.






So, that was a good time.
This week I'm going to leave Tim little notes everywhere and let him know I appreciate him and what he does for us. I think he may be tired of text messages telling him I love him. Damn technology. Nobody leaves little written notes for people anymore so that's what I'll do. I think he'll like that.
What else? I'm busy. Like for real. I do so much with school and cheerleading it's crazy. Now competition is coming up and we are practicing pretty hardcore for that. I've noticed my house falling apart. Yeah, I could be doing laundry or dishes right now but I am updating my blog. The dirt will be there when I get to it. I've tried getting Kyla to help me but since she is only here 1/2 the time it doesn't help much. The laundry still has to be done and the dishes still need to be washed. I just have no time to do them. I keep telling myself that it will pay off in the end but I don't think I believe that. I hate messy things. Blah!
I finished my first mod in school and got 2 A's and a B. I was pretty happy with that. I didn't think I did that well but I did. So whoo hoo for me! Other than all this not much else is new. Until later, bye bye!

I'm behind.

I'm only behind a week right? Ok, let me start off with my Marriage Monday thingy. This week, since my wonderful husband cooks 4 out of the 7 nights because we have practice, I am going to do atleast 2 crock pot meals so when he comes home he doesn't have to worry about what's for dinner.

Now, onto other things. The birthday party was a hit! The cake delicious and the gifts were wonderful. Nathan got so many new clothes and toys. Finally, he doesn't have to play with his sister's baby dolls. Yay!! My sister and brother in law stayed for a while afterwards which gave the kids a chance to hang out with them. That was nice since they don't see them that often. Jenni, (my soon to be sis in law) was here too. She's choreographing a dance for my squad. I got a taste of that and it seems to be pretty cool. Thank god I have smart girls! LOL
Nathan loved his cake. He was afraid to touch it at first. I'll post some pics for your viewing pleasure.

School is going great. I'm doing well and about to finish my first mod. Thanks god!! Finals are this week so I won't be on much. Which reminds me I must go study! Tata for now!

I'll post birthday pics tomorrow.

Stupid cheer moms.

Venting ahead so be aware.

I have 13 girls on my squad. Out of those 13, I have problems with 3. The rest of the girls are awesome!!! What's the problem with the 3 girls you ask. Their mothers.
Girl #1- Out of 13 practices this kid showed up for 3 and the mother is questioning why the kid isn't getting the cheers. Well dumbass, let me explain it to you. We learn atleast 3 cheers a day. That's a total of 39 cheers learned already. If you actually brought your kid to practice she would know them all. No, instead she is going to make the rest of my squad look like crap. Oh yeah, also, stop feeding her candy and pop during practice. She is not allowed to eat that stuff. READ YOUR CONTRACT!

Girl #2- PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR COACH! Not the football players, or other squads and then wonder why you aren't catching on. I know you are only 7 but the rest of the girls get it. Why don't you? Oh yeah, to this kids mom, don't smoke on the field. It's not only ignorant to the other parents and children who hate the smell of the shit but it's just rude. Not everyone wants to die of lung cancer, k?

Girl #3- Good gawd where do I begin? Well, I know it's not your fault that your mom is a dumbass. How many times can I tell her no flip flops during practice, or eating, or drinking unless we take a water break. Oh yeah, also stop babying her. She's 7. She knows right from wrong. I'm not a mean coach, I just want my girls to look great this year and your daughter is holding us back because she would rather screw off and not pay attention to me and the other coach.

Ok, now that that's out of the way. On to better things. My Monday marriage thingy. This week, I"m going to make sure my husband knows I appreciate that he cooks dinner the night I don't have cheerleading practice. I do appreciate it. If he didn't do this then my night would never end. Between practice, studying, cleaning up and kids my days would be 20 hours with only 4 to sleep. So my darling husband, thank you. I love you.
