The Fair

I can't help but write about my evening at the fair with my three kids!!! We decided to go very last minute because I was afraid it was going to rain tomorrow (our scheduled day to go).

I left work early to run home and gather all the kids and all the belongings we may need for the evening!! I actually managed to get out in a timely manner I was quite proud of myself. Kay made us all sandwiches and we packed water and crackers too (keeps Colby occupied).

We ran out the door, drove around looking for parking wishing I had called Cutzi!! Its OK I finally found something WAY closer!! Made our way in...and the bickering's begin....Pey wants to go on the rides, Kay wants to blow money on games and ALL I want to do is get some POFFERTJES and look at the exhibits. I quickly discovered this very diverse family was gonna need a plan of action.

I explained to the kids that since we got her later than we normally would and we all want to different things, that we were going to need to be respectful to each other and be patient while we wait for out FUN turn!!

We got bracelets first since there was not a line there.

Got our button pic, I am pissed cuz I take up the whole button!!

Do a couple big kid rides

Took an animal break, looked at all the animals!!!

Spent a good chunk of time in the kiddie section, during which Colby puked for the FIRST TIME EVER, but then he was fine....weird!!

Colby NEEDED milk, so we had to wait in the Dairy Women line for stinking MILK....NO MOOWICH FOR ME.....I held my own!!!

We realized we were starving, so we set up picnic and ate sandwich's, crackers and drank MILK!!! Oh my I amaze myself!!!

Made our way back to the big rides...but the lines were crazy...so it was Kay's time to play games.....she won TWO PENGUINS.... you know she was in heaven!!

Kay decides to stay the night with Keairra, so Peyton and I hit the kid section for 3 more rides....

Walk through the cow barn.....

GET POFFERTJES for me.......

GET MINI DONUTS for Peyton.....

and we were gone!!!!

Tired of defending myself

I am getting a little bit irritated at the world lately. I am going thru this issue that seems to be every ones issue.

As of today, I live with my boyfriend, our son, and my two kids.....

I go to "work" and he stays home. Somehow this has become

1. every one's concern

2. and a window for everyone to give me "advice"

I am sorry never once have I poked into someones life and told them they were living it incorrectly. I am pretty sure this is my life and I get to do what I want (within legal standards of course) I don't know of any laws that state Jason should work and I should stay at home.

Right now this is what works for us and I am getting tired of having to defend and convince people we are normal. Allot of Dad's stay at home. I would rather one of us be home then the kids be in daycare.

I didn't have kids so someone I don't know can raise my kids.

My First Blog!!!!!!!!

I am finally ready.... I finally understand (somewhat) what I am doing....Hopefully now I will be able to jot down my thoughts as they come to me and hopefully vent a lil....

Of course at this time I have about 3 topics I could write about, but I think I should space it out!!

I am right now just glad to know what I am doing, now I just have to find my friends....maybe I don't know everything yet!!!
