Ughhh

You ever have one of those days? Days that feel like they are never going to end? Well that has been my day so far. I have had a sick kid for the last week...(Jen you beat me on this cause you have 2! ) it has either been Caleb or Molly, thankfully not together! That said, I have been dragging everyone out for all of Caleb's "stuff". Now it's Friday, and well while I am happy I dread the weekend in the same breath. All that this means is that instead of 2 kids all day, now I have 4. Add the rain to that senario and what do you have??? A cranky Krystin! :)

Here's hoping for a quite, fun filled, and healthy weekend! Yeah Right!

To speak or Not to speak?

P.S. here is a not so current pic of our family.. that is my dad on thr right!
I have come to the conclusion, that there are some things that are better left unsaid. No matter how hard you try, sometimes you just can't help but put your foot in your mouth. While i am not going to delve into all the gory details, i will add that while i love my hubby sometimes i want to shoot him. it never ceases to amaze me that he can be loyal even when that loyalty is so not deserved, which to be honest is one of the great many things that i love about him. now that said, back to my point...i hate people! i think that people freaking suck. i guess since i did not grow up in a family that was entrenched in "togetherness" sometimes i have a hard time with it. But it seems to me that "togetherness" is overrated once you are married and have a family of your own. Isn't the whole purpose of raising our kids to teach them how to grow up and have families of their own? why then would you encroach yourself upon your child's family in every possible way? why would you then, guilt your child if they chose to live their life, and the lives of THEIR FAMILY with out your every input? Perhaps it is just me, and my jaded family life talking. But i really don't think so. While i love my hubby, most of the time it's his "family" that i could really do without. It seems that when they are involved, everything is magnified 100X's, and well that is not always a good thing. It seems that the more they are involved, the more they drive others away.

Down on the Farm


Well my little Meghan had her very 1st field trip at school on the 18th of January. She along with her class vistited a local farm. She was so excited, and came home with so much to tell about her trip. I was not sure if she was more excited about the bus ride there, or the actual farm. But either way she had a blast! And thanks to Grandma for going with her on her little excursion! Saved me from having to find a sitter for both Molly and Caleb. YEAH GRANDMA!!

BTW...This is Meghan holding a baby chick! Cute huh?

Back for more...

Well i am back to continue on with this idea of sharing with the world all about my kids and the crazy lives that my family leads. First let me tell you about my family. I am married, have been for a few years. Have 4 yes that's right count em' 4 kids. Stephen my oldest is almost 7, Meghan is 51/2, Caleb just turned 4 and that leaves little Miss Molly who is currently 13 mos. old. My hubby is a car fanatic, and well that has in turned rubbed off a little on the rest of us. Our lives currently revolve around Caleb and his hectic therapy schedule. We thought that it would be fun to mix it up a bit, and put the kids in sports! YEAH ME!! So now, Stephen will be playing Baseball. Meghan and hopefully Caleb will be enjoying a season of Soccer. Who has time for Chaos when you have kids!??
