my daybook for 12/15/08

FOR TODAY Monday, December 15, 2008

Outside my window A nice cloudy cool winter day

I am thinking that i really need to quit stalling and start cleaning this house!!

I am thankful for my wonderful husband and 5 beautiful children!!

From the learning rooms working hard with cody on his letters and reading with Cheyenne

From the kitchen not much going on in there today we are gonna have leftovers tonight ;)

I am wearing a new dark brown, light brown and white shirt from sears and also a new pair of jeans that fit and boy thats a great feeling ( i won a sears gift card online so i got a few things)

I am creating noting right now i am still trying to motivate myself to start the pillowcase dresses thou hopefully soon that will happen!!

I am going to get the kids from school soon

I am reading noting at the moment but i am gonna look on my bookshelf soon and pick something out

I am hoping when chad gets home we get motivated and get this house decluttered

I am hearing kk quietly playing with her animal toys

Around the house is very Christmas- y (is that a word lol)

One of my favorite things a good movie with a big bowl of popcorn and a caffeine free coke lol

A few plans for the rest of the week:declutter, declutter, declutter and maybe a little baking ;)

Here is picture thought I am sharing... me and my baby boy ;)

to see other daybooks please check out the simple womens daybook

wow.. has it really been a week???

wow i really can't believe its been a week since my last post i guess i was a little busy reading and cleaning and everything else!! so whats been going one this past week lets see i finished all 4 of the twilight books and they were really good and it got me back into reading something i have not done in years so that's cool cause i have lots of books that i need to read!! Cody went on stage with his class at the base Christmas party they had Santa there and then some very un modestly dressed elves i was a little shocked how short there skirts were i mean you could pretty much see there butt cheeks and that's not cool! but anyways Cody did great singing his song they sung 2 songs jingle bell rock and we wish you a merry Christmas and he has been singing the we wish you a merry Christmas song over and over and over and over again since the party lol!! we also went to a Christmas party at the mosh (a kids museum) it was chads command kids party and i have to say it was pretty lame but i did like that we got to go to the museum for free that was cool! and kyle and Kaylee both won 15 dollar gift cards from walmart! we did not go to chads command adult party thou cause for one they are lame and for 2 there is no way i am gonna leave my kids with there babysitters they had at the hotel in a way i do think it would have been cool to go cause they did some great giveaways but at the same time who cares cause most the people there are not people i care to spend a Friday night with hahaha so instead me and chad stayed up and watched the new batman movie and the kids watched Mary Poppins so we had a great night ;) well i guess thats about all we did this last week and this week we will be decluttering big time cause i am feeling so cramped in this house so i am gonna be going thru clothes and toys and blankets so watch out on freecycle or if you think you may want toys or blankets let me know i am not sure what clothes i am getting rid of yet but probably women's and girls (6-7) well i am gonna go i have so much to do this place is a mess later guys!

still reading

well i am still reading I'm on book 3 now so i doubt i will be blogging much i have not been getting online much just cleaning and listening to my sweet baby talk to me hes getting so big i love watching him trying to find his voice its so cute!! well anyways here's a short list just for me to try to get done if i can find the time between chapters hehehe later guys!

• put Christmas tree directions up when chad get home (we got our tree yesterday) mostly done!
• vacuum mess around the Christmas tree grrr I've done this a few times!!
• 3 loads of laundry yep i have been doing laundry non stop!!
• dinner by 630 done!!
• clean my room still not done even a week later grrr!!
• have kids clean there room done!
• find the 2 lost library books!! we found one but i think the other one is in the toy box and sometime this week we will find it!!

being lazy!

so i really should be cleaning right now cause the time is just right Caleb is sleeping and Cody and kk are playing quietly together in the toy room but no here i am blogging and before this i was entering giveaways issues i tell you!! so i was wondering would it be totally selfish of me to go and see the movie twilight and take Caleb with me and then have chad at the same time take the 4 other kids to see a kids movie??? i mean i would love to go with him but its not a kids movie and i really want to see it!! but anyways i am gonna get off my lazy butt and get a little cleaning done cause i know once the ups man gets here with my books i will be getting noting done! later guys!

pretty good week!

well i did OK yesterday with my list i still have a lot to do thou cause i was kinda in a blah like mood and did not feel like doing much but today was better and i got a few things done and i am hoping tomorrow will be even better so i get more done lol! i have been getting my Christmas shopping done this week and i am happy to say i have alot done i still need to get Cheyenne and kyle some more things Cheyenne loves arts and crafts stuff and that stuff is a lot cheaper in walmart and Joann's then it is on Amazon and i need to go to Joann's tomorrow anyways cause i am gonna make these cute little advent like stocking ( yeah yeah I'm a little late) but i got the idea from Kristin's blog at i'm not super mom and they are really cute you should go check them out! other then trying to go to the store i don't really have any plans tomorrow but that's good i like to stick to the house in case Caleb gets fussy but i did win this awesome nursing cover from http://www.raisingpeanuts.com/ (which is a cute blog) but yeah she was hosting a giveaway and i won it and its really neat and i am pretty sure i could go in public and nurse Caleb and not one person would see my boobs which is pretty cool cause i;m sure about half of Jacksonville have seen them hahaha but shes got some other giveaways going right now also so you should check her blog out and try to win some ;) and lets see i also won a 100 dollar gift card to Kmart or sears (does that mean sears owns k-mart??) so yeah i am totally pumped about that one and hope it gets here soon i am not sure what i will get with that one but i am sure it will be something awesome hehehe i won it from 5 minutes for moms which by the way is hosting another 100 dollar giveaway right now!! and lets not for get i also won one of the mommy i gotta go dolls and i have to say kk is gonna be thrilled she goes nuts for that commercial!! here's a link to Amy's blog where i won it and shes got one giveaway still going thoughts from the mrs. so yeah you can say it you hate me i would hate me to if i was someone else hahahahaha

i'm back..

well i am back we all kinda had a stomach bug i guess first chad came home sick with something and then kk got a little sick but then they were fine and then we went out to eat Saturday and got sick again but the strange thing is i went to wendy's and chad went to hardees both of us got chicken thou and both of us got really bad chicken i think cause our belly's were not happy to say the least lol but thankfully the kids were cool!! so anyways on to other cool news me and chad went garage sailing Saturday (before the bad chicken lol) and i found a couple cool things but the best thing was found on base a the thrift store i got an old singer sewing machine in the cabinet for 50 bucks and man it sews like a dream i learned to sew on one of these and they are so easy to sew on so it was awesome to find that i can't wait to start making things and sew more again i have already mended like a ton of things that had been waiting in a bag for months for me to do so i am pretty happy about the sewing machine!! well anyways here's my to do list for the day!

• sweep and mop kitchen floor well i did sweep!
• nag chad some more about the hamster cage (hehe) try again tomorrow lol
• clean the living room done!!
• have Cheyenne vacuum all the rugs done!!
• have kids clean rooms before bed done!!
• sweep the toy room and hallway done!!
• 2 loads of laundry from start to finish!! done!!

well..

well i have a feeling the rest of this week and probably next week is gonna be long and uncool!! chad is sick right now he came home Tuesday sick with i am not sure what i am really thinking the flu cause hes really tired and sore and has a fever etc etc and yesterday i noticed kk and Caleb were acting very fussy and now kk has thrown up twice today and just don't not look like she feels well and Caleb has a stuffy nose and he is very upset by it and he gets even more mad when i clean it with that lovely snot sucker (lol) but hopefully the kids will not get it to bad as soon as chad gets home this afternoon i am gonna make a quick stop to the store and get a some Gatorade and a few cases of water and maybe some quick and easy food cause i think cooking on top of all this would be a little to hard and time consuming right now!

other then that we have not really been up to much just the regular dailys i have a new goal everyday and thats to clean the kitchen and living room first thing in the morning and then to do at least 2 loads of clothes from start to finish my biggest problem is the finish i had like 5 loads of clothes on my couch and that was my turning point lol so far i am doing pretty good and have been putting stuff right away or having Cheyenne if shes home from school when i do the laundry also next week i am gonna start doing get the weight off blog post and post what i have eaten and is i exercised at the end of everyday and hopefully i can get rid of this "momma belly" ;) if ya wanna join in please do as it would probably be extra motivation!! well until next time later guys!

our day...

well we kinda changed our mind about moving well at least for now we are still gonna move but we are gonna wait until after the holidays cause it would be way to stressful trying to move right now so in about 2 or 3 months we are soooo gonna find a house to rent around here and i am cool with that it will be so nice to have carpet and a fenced yard again the only 2 things i really care about when it comes to finding a house to rent well i also care about the neighborhood but who doesn't!! i am a little upset this week as i got an email saying they were probably shutting finegan down (the kids school) and if thats the case they will go to a school i am not sure i want them to go to they are suppose to make some kinda announcement on the 21st we will see i guess here's to hoping it stays open cause its gonna suck if not!! other them that there is really not much going on we have been pretty lazy today i am hoping chad gets here soon cause he should really be home sleeping cause he is sick ;( but thats the navy for ya grrr!! well thats all i got i am gonna do a list in a few minutes thou ;)
