Who's the Adult really?

So today was a rough day.. REALLY ROUGH... the kids were more then hard to handle.. the oldest one joe couldn't talk back more if he tried.. Brenden (middle 5) was up to no good and would't leave kayla (2) alone.. by dinner I was had nothing left of me.. I had cleaned up poop from princess panties,been talked back to 102323423434234 times and had to tear a 5 year old off his brother and sister 234234235234234 times.. let alone being head butted in the head twice.. I had had it.. no naps and cranky kids = Very cranky April. sooo when jason sat down I said im done I have nothing left its your turn you punish.. and you take care of the kids because I am drained.. he says thats fine you can have the night off and 2 sec later I look at him and shoot a ice cube out of my mouth and hit jason in the face and I said that I wasn't a parent anymore can i PLEASE go to time-out.. at that point we all burst into laughter and nothing else mattered... okay okay.. the kids STILL went to bed at 7:30 but over all it was a good ending to such a horrible night!

more to love!

Today has been great, My day off so im catching up on lesson plans and sub plans for next week! Can I hear a whoot for only working 3 days.. whoot ha ha. I am also spending time with jasons kids (boyfriend) we are working hard on potty training Makayla (2) and man is she giving us a run for our money, I swear she knows when to poop in public ha ha Today we were at a friends house getting the families hair cut and her and the boys were in the play room when.. yup right at that time she decided to poop in her nice princess panties.. oh boy lol Good thing im not the one to get sick easy to my stomic so I just cleaned it up and off we went. oh the joys of potty training.. after she was done and on the potty she says.. " I pooped" I wanted to say no shit shurlock lol but I didn't she makes me laugh.

 This is the stinker I with the help of grandma and aunt kelly will potty train! and get to stop saying SHUT UP.. oh boy! she is so cute though right??????

the filler

Okay I have tried to re-write this blog a few time now and I am just going to be stright forward and honest.. ouch.. ready?

I met the man of my dream jan 20ish lol we don't even know the offical date of when we started dating it kinda just happend.. well if I would have only known lol.. The man I still fall inlove with daily has baggage.. and when I say baggage I mean BAGGAGE.. he has 3 kids who I am so inlove with and he has them split custody every other week. and a ......ex wife to be nice lol.. she has made it everything BUT easy to date her ex husband and.. just so its clear... she wanted the devoirce untill it happend and he moved on and she well... dated losers and got knocked up and wanted that wonderful man who I call the love of my life.. So anyway we dated for 7 months and decided to move in together and before anyone starts judgeing we did it very slowly and made the kids our number one priority in our lives and the big change of me moving in. They were in every part of it and we had alot of talks about it.

So this week is our week and well.. it was kindergarden Open house.. and the ex was there.. OH BOY that was rough .. He did everything to draw attention to her.. tears.. yelling.. storming off.. the joys of her.. Jason tried hard to make everything one the same level of understanding for the both of them. When she was having the kids she would make her own arraingements of who would pick up and drop off and when we had them we would make ours.. well... when the teacher asked her about being on the same level she did the poor me look and acted like she had no idea. I was like oh joy.. and then flipped out of jason out in the hallway for not telling her about tonight.. We both agree that there should be nothing said infront of the kids but she doesn't get that... who knows.. Tomorrow is Joes 2nd grade open house.. pray it gets better.
