Lifes little pleasures

I finally have a free second to catch up on some blogging. Super busy as I'm sure you all are too.
How nice it is right now in my house I am sitting in the bathroom while savanna is playing quietly in the tub with her pony's, my hubby took Kylie to soccer practice! I think this needs to happen every Monday. I am always the one driving all over the place bringing the kids here and there, its nice to be the one left home.
Not that I get too much of a break baths for the kid and the dog in a few, then on to some more packing. We leave Sat.for vacation and I feel like there is so much still to do.
But WOW I cannot believe how quiet it is with only one kid.
I watch kids all day while my older one is in school and then I have my 2 after school till bedtime, but having one now is great :) Can you tell how excited I am to have peace and quiet for 1 hour. Ok off to enjoy playing my little pony's.

Virtual coffee

One of by bestest friends (check her out) has been doing this post for a couple of weeks and I really like the idea so I'm gonna join in today.

If we were meeting for coffee it would probably be here at my house since I have a sick kiddo at home today :(

I would tell you that I had to go pick her up early from school because she has a headache and a fever. Poor thing. But I have to say I am relieved that she went to school today so it didn't count as an absence, we are leaving for Disney World in 12 days and she will miss 5 days of school. I really don't want her to miss any more. I know I know I'm a terrible mom wanting to send the poor kid to school even when shes not feeling well, but she really didn't have a fever this morning I promise!!

I would then tell you that we started my younger daughter on her 2 months of antiboitics today! Fingers crossed that it works!!!!!!!!!

I would want to hear all about whats going on in your little piece of the world.


I would probably then go on to complain!! About what you ask?? Well just normal stuff Husband driving me crazy, Girl Scout planning, PTA planning, trying to start packing, you know typical mommy complaints.

But what are friends for and what is meeting for coffee all about but to listen and to talk to a freind!

Can't wait to meet up again soon. Next time I'll bring muffins, whats better then muffins and coffee.

updates

Ahhhh
finally a free minute!!
My days have been super busy!

Update on Savanna we took her to a specialist for Lyme. SO glad we found the Dr we did, she is going to take 2 months of antibiotics. We hope this will do it, but we had to have more blood work done to check for co-infections. There are things we need to make sure that she gets while on the meds, so lots of research on my end. She will need omega-3, acidophilus, extra calcium, floride. My poor baby and all of this from a tiny little tick!! What is their purpose anyways!

On a good note she had her first day of preschool yesterday!! I can't believe how big she is getting she was like "bye mom see you later" It was harder for me to leave her there, I got a little teary eyed. I just think next year she will be in full day Kindergarten.
OMG when did I get so old. Here's a pic of my girl!


Kylie has started everything in full swing too. She has started Soccer and Girl Scouts. Did I mention I was the Girl Scout leader. Oh man it is so much work, but worth it. We have our first field trip this weekend the girls are SO excited!!!!!!!!
But lately I am not sure whats up with my once sweet loving well behaved 7 year old, she has turned into a moody, mouthy, 7 year old. I would like the sweet one back now. Come on any time. All I can say is God help me when she goes through puberty. I am in SO much trouble. Maybe I will learn a little more patience by then!

I am planning a ladies choice and gentleman's choice dance at my daughters school. The school has never had one but I think every little girls should have the chance to get dressed up and have a dance date with their daddy, (or other special guy in their life) I hope it all works out, again lots of work but worth it!

On top of all this we leave for Disney in 2 weeks YAY i am SOOOOO excited we are in store for tons of fun. My girls cannot wait. I hope we have good weather :)
Well I'm off to do the housework it had been lacking the last couple of days. Hope everyone has a great Thursday!

Organizing!!!!

I really wish I could hire a professional organizer.

I feel like nothing is where it should be, everything is cluttered, but what do I do with all this crap!

I envy people when I walk into their house and its all neat, and uncluttered, and Organized!!! Now don't get me wrong I do not need to be on an episode of Hoarders or anything but I just wish I had some clever ideas to have things look neater.

To start this process I am going to buy a weekly organizer for K's clothes that way at the beginning of the week she can pick out 5 outfits and just pick one of those in the morning, so much less stressful.
Next i am going to buy a big dry erase board and put everything on that, soccer, girl scouts, dr. apt, playdates all that good stuff.
I need to just go through everything and purge!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well these things are not close to what i want to do but its a start.

Stress!!!!!!!

I am stressing today!!!

I am trying to find a Lyme specialist and a Naturopath Dr. for Savanna.

She has finished her round of antibiotics and I still don't' have a specialist for her to see. Why can't any of these Dr.s take medical insurance!

Girl Scouts starts again next week and I don't have anything planned yet. except that i planned the first field trip and half the troop can't make it. Of course!!!!!!

I had 2 new kids start for childcare in my house this week and one more new one next week.

We leave for Disney in 3 weeks and I don't know where my dog is going to stay.

The dog got spayed last week and is still healing. But shes driving me nuts because she feels better but can't play the way she wants to.

And last but not least I feel like my skin is going to melt off its so hot!!!!
Fall weather you can come any time now!


GRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!! I need a drink tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At least I have them to keep me positive!!
