The Mom Test

THIS WAS SO FUNNY I HAD TO POST IT...

I was out walking with my 4 year old daughter. She picked up something off the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I took the item away from her and I asked her not to do that.
'Why?' my daughter asked.

'Because it's been on the ground, you don't know where it's been, it's dirty, and probably has germs,' I replied.

At this point, my daughter looked at me with total admiration and as kid, 'Momma, how do you know all this stuff, you are so smart.' I was thinking quickly.
'All moms know this stuff. It's on the Mom Test.
You have to know it, or they don't let you be a Mom.' We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but she was evidently pondering this new information.

'OH...I get it!' she beamed, 'So if you don't pass the test you have to be the dad.' ''Exactly,' I replied back with a big smile on my face.

When you're finished laughing, send this to a Mom

Wwwhhhere's Tyler? There He Is!

So even though I am very tired and I just got home from work, I feel the need to share the experience that I had this morning. I know Tyler loves to play peekaboo, and he likes to hide around the corner and have me find him, but this tops it all. I finally decided to get out of bed at 540 this morning so that I would not be too late for work and for some reason Daniel was kind of awake. So as I got out of bed I used my phone to see where I am going. Usually I just get out of the room ASAP as to not wake the kids. Well I forgot to get everything I needed out of the room last night so I used my phone light to get my clothes. As I did I glaced over at Tyler's bed and he wasn't there. Big deal, I thought, he must be under some of the thousands of blankets I have on my bed. He climbs into our bed a lot with me even noticing it. So I asked Daniel if Tyler was in our bed and he said no. So I looked around the floor and on Baby D's bunk and nothing. The door was closed and he has not been able to open it lately and besided the door was still closed (he would have left it open). I told Daniel that I couldnt find TyTy and I tured on the lights. There is no way that Tyler is just not here! I looked under the bed, I moved the blankets, and moved some clothes and nothing. So I went and checke the kitchen , bathroom, and living room and nothing. So Daniel called me back into the room and he was looking under the bed and Tyler was there HALF way under our QUEEN size bed! How did this happen? I dont know! I love this kid!

Both my kids LOVE Spong Bob! That is an under statement! This is a video of Tyler singing and dancing to the theme song and Daniel in the background singing and telling Tyler to dance and "get down" I love these kids.

Random Fun...

So those of you who know Tyler, know how much he loves his baths. Its actually funny cause he is so scared to be in pools even if they are toddler pools, but he NEEDS to have his bath every day! Well this was taken a couple of nights ago. Daniel was done and got out but Tyler wanted to stay longer which usally happens all the time. This time I asked Daniel to pull the plug because he was splashing so much and was really having a hard time keeping the water inside the tub. Well this is how he reacted when he realized that the water was running low.

Go down to the one called hoodrats. New pictures of the kids. While my sister and brother in law from Penn were down, grandma wanted all her grandkids to be photographed. Unfortunately my kids did not do so well. My defense: they were sick, cold, and i wasnt able to be there! But luckily she got at least one of each that look good.

End of Year Updates

It has been a while since I blogged. I haven't taken my camara anywhere lately. But I can give you updates on my family. Big D just finished his first quarter of nursing school at Cal State LA. I know that three years seems like a long time but this quater went by fast. If they continue at this rate then he will be done in no time. We are very excited for him to start clincals at the hospital next quater. He goes back to school on the 7th of Jan, so he has a whole month off. Iwas really excited because I was going to get to see my husband again. Boy was I wrong. I have been working so much that I really have not seen him much.

Speaking about work. I got another job. I am so excited from the moment I graduated and started to work on the floor I knew I wanted to teach nursing students. Originally I was offered an assisstant clinical instuctor position so I applied and was waiting to get the ok from the State Board of Nursing. It usually takes like 2 months to hear back from the Board. I actually kind of forgot about it. One day I was at home when one of my friends from work text me to say that one of the instuctors wanted to talk to me about the position. I got excited because I had forgotten about the job. In talking to her she said that they were offering me the actual clinical instructor position instead of the assisstant which is so much better. I will be in charge of about 10 students all by myself and it doesn't hurt that the position I got pays more than double the assisstant position. I might have to put TyTy in day care in order to do this job but I think the money will really help out with the bills and it would only be one day a week. I have an appointment to speak with the director next week to get all the details and I will update you later.

Baby D is growing so much. He is just this big sponge and is taking it all in. It not only surpizes me that he uses some big words at times, but he uses them correctly. He is suck a pain sometimes but he reminds me to stay on tract. When I am too tired and just want to put a movie on he is the one who reminds me that we need to read the BofM and pray before we go to sleep. I love that kid so much.

TyTy learned his official second word. He knows mami, mama (for grandma), dada, papa, txss (He is trying to say X), auwa (for sarah, meghan, and alyssa), tyty, anol (for daniel). So he has pretty much all our names down. His first word was caca. He is pretty good at telling us when his diaper needs to be changed by using that simple words. Well this last two weeks has been trying to perfect I'm hungry (ah owing). Usually he will come to me and say "ah owing" and "ill say are you hungry". and he says back "owing". He may not talk very well but he makes his needs known which is great!

Well I hope that as the holidays get closer that everyone will be safe and keep the meaning of Christmas close to your heart. I love you all and hope to hear from you soon.
