The things I hate the most!

Do you ever feel the need to vent? But can't even put into words you want to vent about? Maybe its because I'm overly tired and just over things today so I am a bit more crabby and more irritated then usual. Most days I'm fantastic laughing and having fun with the girls but today everything is getting to me today. Hopefully when it gets to be afternoon and the temp goes up a bit the park with the girls will clear me of my horrible mood. So a list of my annoyances today:

1. Colorado Drivers- I have meant to complain about this but keep forgetting. I swear I have never had road rage until living here. Colorado has the world's worst drivers and if we could just run into the people who pull out in front of you making you slam on your breaks I wouldn't even think twice about it. They don't know how to merge, can't read speed signs, when a light is green it means to break through it. The left lane on the highway is obviously drive whatever speed you want even though there are specific signs all up and down the highway saying keep right left lane is meant for passing. Instead you have 3 lanes of traffic and 3 cars driving 55 all in a row. Or you have the morons who ride your ass thinking its your fault traffic is slow you finally get past the slow morons and they speed off going 100. Cause thats as safe as the idiots who drive too slow. People don't know what blinkers are here either. And one of the biggest things that piss me off why in the hell are you going to cut in front of me when there is not a single person behind me but you choose to cut into the space where there is barely even a car length between the car in front of me causing me to slam on my breaks and yes I will be swearing up a storm at you and using my horn. So its pretty simple drive the actual speed limit, pay attention and know when the right time to come over into another lane, use your blinker, and for the love of god keep right if you are going to drive 50 on the highway there are some of us who have places to go and would like to get there at a decent time. Oh and lastly you live in freaking COLORADO you should know how to drive in snow!!! Riding your break, driving 30, and riding the person's ass in front of you seriously and people wonder why there are multiple accidents every single day in this damn city....Colorado Drivers you all suck and need to go back to driving school.

2. I hate people- That doesn't mean everyone. There are quite a few people that I love and appreciate more then anything. The people I hate are the ones who think they are entitled to everything, that the world revolves around them, and that we all owe them everything. I hate people who make tons of excuses for their "problems" but don't get off their asses and fix them rather complain. Also people who ask for advice you give it to them and then they completely disregard everything you have said, why ask for advice if you already know what you are going to do in the first place? Please, don't waste my time. I hate people who think just because they read my blog, look at my pictures, or see what on my Facebook they all of sudden know everything about me, my husband, and our daughters. Yes I do tell a lot but that doesn't mean you know me as a person in the least bit. Take what I write but then if you are going to form an opinion or think you have any right to even talk about me, you're wrong. Get to know me or my family first then after you actually know us then talk all you want. And to be completely honest if you are going to talk poorly about us how could you possibly think that it wouldn't get back to us? And do you really think we want people like you in our lives? Get real! I hate rude people, sorry I'm in a store with 2 little girls but they do use their manners if they get in your way (on accident), they will say sorry and excuse me and I will as well. So if you are going to get in our way then turn around and glare like its our fault I should let me daughter walk in front of you and zig zag through the store like she does. She isn't even 3 yet and has better manners then you. Also is it really that hard to say "thank you" when me a mother with 2 children in tow hold the door open for you? Sorry next time I'll make sure to let it go in your face. And people wonder why this world sucks so much? Maybe if we were all a little nicer, didn't always think that their way is the only way, and instead of bitching actually took matters into their own hands and were more proactive at figuring things out instead of thinking that someone else should do it for them.

3. I hate cleaning and I hate laundry. The only time I will like them is when my house is clean the laundry is done and I didn't have to do it. Yes somedays I don't mind doing it but every single second of the day get real there are a billion of other things I rather be doing then scrubbing the toilet or folding someone else's underwear. But I do it not because I want to but rather because I can't stand living in a dirty house. Yes it may be messy but lets be real here I have 2 little girls another one on the way, a husband, and 2 animals. Messy is one thing but dirty is a completely different. Yes 80% of the time my floor is going to be sticky sorry I mop constantly but didn't you know the rule that a clean floor is a magnet to a little kid to spill something? After I vacuum I guarantee 20 minutes later you will find crumbs on the floor once again same rule with the mop clean floors bring a mess. Its just a fact of life us mom's have accepted. But don't get that message wrong just because my house may look like this doesn't mean my children and us as parents don't have respect for your house. Its expected for my girls to pick up any toys that they may have been playing with, I will watch them its not your job to babysit, if they make a mess, spill food, or a drink I will be right there with paper towel making sure its all picked up. My children will use manners when you offer them something. And if you have a problem with them coming over just say that versus beating around the bush. Either we can find a babysitter or we can find something better to do then be at your house where my well behaved children aren't welcome. Yes I understand some circumstances a babysitter is better but not always.

4. Last one I honestly hate talking on the phone. Don't take it personal there are only like 3 people I really don't mind talking to Billy, my mom and dad. Really its just difficult for me to talk on the phone with the girls running around, screaming and getting into everything and once again same principle with the clean floors they see a phone at my ear and they think its prime time to come talk to me or ask for something. Send me a message on facebook, email, text I will respond 100x times faster that way. Sometimes a phone call is quicker and easier if its a couple minutes that fine but if you just want to chat I probably won't answer.

Well I must say I am very happy to get that all of my chest. I feel much better. Even though I do complain about the most random things I am so extremely appreciative for those of you in our lives. It really does brighten my day seeing your messages and comments. I am constantly laughing and smiling and it does help so much. I know that I may forget to say thank you or show my appreciation sometimes but I do think it and I mean it when I say we really do have the best support system around. There are so many different things going on in our little world right now and I love all of you there are here to go on the ride with us. So much love to each and every one of you who have been understanding, supportive, and haven't judged us once instead just gave us nothing but love through the ups and downs. Thank you! I promise all of it will be reciprocated and your kindness will pay off in the end.

Love

I love this man more and more everyday.

Its the simple things he does that gets me every single time.

The little things he knows that mean the most to me and that I will always have to look back on.

The moments when we haven't talked in days, I have no clue how he is doing and then that moment we get to talk and he puts up something like this brings me closer to him then ever.

I have looked at this picture over and over today and every single time it makes me smile and think how lucky I am to have such a special man to be my husband.

Little things like this is why I may complain about deployments because the little things he does like this when he is so far away the things that he does at home when he is here are a million times better. I hate being apart but I am so proud and appreciate the scarifies that he makes while he is away.

We talked on the phone for a bit today. It was wonderful to hear his voice and just be able to catch up. He is doing good he will be around for a little bit. Always a great thing cause that means I get to talk to him again. :) Really thats about it. He is well and thats all that really matters!

3 months and counting!

William Alfred

I love you so much.

Always.

Deployments suck.

Being pregnant alone with stupid emotions you have no control over makes deployments suck even more.

Not knowing when you will hear from your husband next makes your pregnant emotions go absolutely crazy which in turn makes a deployment suck the most.

With that said we have entered double digits.

Even with this everything still sucks...And I have my middle finger up to this part of the deployment I prefer how it was before he left again.

My finger goes to you who had to "request" him to go to a different company...just him. Absolutely the most stupid part of this entire deployment and you person who made this decision blow. You have by far made this deployment 10x times worse then what it already was and I don't like you, and probably never will. If anything I'm sure at the homecoming you will be the only one I'll be glaring at. And heaven forbid if anything happens to my husband my sole blame will be placed on you, thats a promise. I am thankful for the people who did try to keep him and stay, that I do appreciate.

And this whole everyone has communication thing is a big sack of crap. Don't believe it when they said you will hear how things are going or how everyone is. Not true..some FRG's are awesome others suck more then the others.

I cannot wait to get out of Colorado Springs and away from Ft. Carson! That countdown is on as well.

Thats all for today.

Happy Friday

The girls and I were decently productive today, we were dressed before 10am. Thats quite an accomplishment and even out the door by 1015. We went to the AFB Commissary to go grocery shopping. I figured that we had gone at a good enough time that it wouldn't be too busy. Boy was I wrong, it was swarming with old people. And I don't mean that in a bad way except they don't know how to "park" their carts so we are trying to maneuver around them or we are waiting for 5 minutes for them to pick out their fruits and vegetables. I swear one lady kept moving her cart blocking everyone's way as she was looking at lunch meat. Really its that hard of a decision to pick one? So it took us a lot longer then I thought it would. But we had a blast and Nevaeh has turned into such a big helper grabbing things for me and putting them in the cart. She did grab a few things that weren't on our list but that happens whenever we go.

When we got home she even helped me put everything away. At one point she grabbed a juice box for Makenna. I asked her if she was going to have one and she told me not until she was done helping me. I definitely got a good chuckle out of that.

We also picked out her birthday theme that way I can get everything ordered and make sure it all arrives at my parents before we get there. One less thing we will have to do to prepare for her party when we arrive....Theme to be reviled with her party invitations. I need to get on that ASAP. So hopefully they will be mailed out next week sometime. I can't believe in a month I will have a 3 year old. Where has the time gone? They are both growing like crazy.

We don't have any plans for this weekend. We just sort of take the day is it comes. The weather is still a bit too cold for the park, which sucks. I'm sure we will find something tomorrow to do. Tonight I just have dinner left to make then we are just going to hang out and watch movies. Probably have a popsicle and popcorn.

We are missing the daddy like crazy. Nevaeh has been on a playing spree of all the things she wants to do as soon as he gets home. Number 1 would be taking the train up to the top of pikes peak. She talks about it daily. She is going to keep him busy!

Things are going great here. No complaints except for just wanting to hear from Billy. Hoping I hear from him soon, but not getting my hopes up too high. Easier that way.

Anyway I hope you all have a wonderful 3-4 day weekend. We will enjoy it everyday is a weekend for us right now. :)

I need a hobby..

I really need to find something to do during the day to keep my occupied. Yes I know photography and I want to continue to pursue that. But I just mean something small I can pick up when say the girls are napping or running around in the basement like crazy ladies. Something i can pick up and go through out the day.

I am finding myself getting extremely bored. Once the weather changes that will be different because we are always outside at the park, in the backyard, or at the zoo. But since the weather still sucks I'm a bit stir crazy.

I am really contemplating teaching myself how to crochet its the only thing I can really think of doing. I love making the girls bows still but they are starting to get to the point where they really don't want to have anything to do with them. And if we end up having a boy obviously thats a no go.

I don't know how to sew...Although thats another thing I wouldn't mind learning. Baking eh I do enjoy it but I hate cleaning up the mess afterwards. To bad the girls aren't old enough to empty/load the dishwasher or wash dishes. They try but I just end up with a bigger mess then what I started with.

I can't draw or paint. Yeah I know so many options right? Maybe I'll actually get dressed and drag the girls to JoAnn's and wander to find something to possibly spark my interest. Hahaha, maybe I'll walk out with a sewing machine? Doubtful, I would know how to plug it in but thats about it.

Any suggestions on a hobby? Something to keep me occupied? Nothing completely crazy and not ridiculously expensive. And something I can quickly throw-down in case my rugrats are getting into something, like usual.

I am getting bored sitting here twiddling my thumbs..

Valentines Day!

Febraury 14, 2012 - 14 weeks pregnant :)

I'm must say I was quite surprised when I received a phone call while going through McDonald's drive through (french fry treat for us girls on Vday). It was a florist delivery guy saying he was in my driveway wanting to drop off a flower arrangement. Well obviously I wasn't at home so I just said leave them by the front door we will be there in 5 minutes or so since we were just down the road.

Pulled in the driveway to see this large collection of goodies. By this time my mind was racing on Who could have sent this to us. Obviously I was thinking my amazing husband but I really had no clue when he would have time to do this. I do remember him saying don't look at the bank account to closely before he left KAF. But didn't really put two and two together.

Well such a sweet surprise when I did see it was from him and then the love daddy to the girls. Such a wonderful treat to know that in the last 2 1/2 weeks we have talked a total of 6 minutes and even further in advance he had taken the time to prearrange for us to receive Valentines. Its the little things like this that make me fall in love with him more and more. He knows me all to well that I get bummed when he isn't here for something but he always manages to surprise me and make it special anyway. Very grateful that he takes the time to do little (BIG) things like that.

The biggest bummer not being able to say Thank you right away or how beautiful the flowers are. I haven't tried the chocolate yet. Nevaeh did just ask me to open the red present. Or to be able to tell him that the teddy bears haven't left the girls sides and they even took their nap with them. (Just what they need another teddy bear in their beds at night soon they won't even have room to sleep...the most special presents though are the ones from daddy when he is so far away)

(From Mommy & Daddy)

Also have to give a "shout-out" to (Great) Gma & Gpa Hyet for the Vday cards the girls went straight to their piggy banks with their $2 dollar bills and we will be enjoying Panera Bread very soon. Thank you very much for thinking of us it means the world to us! We love you lots. <3

I am so thankful for such wonderful family and friends. We really do have the best around. So much love and support its so great to know that so many people care and take the time to see how we are doing. I will never be able to fully express my gratitude because it really does mean so much to me. The kind words really do help bring me up and helps me get through the day. It puts a smile on my face and gives me that little bit of extra strength to push through the rest of the day.

Days like today aren't about the gifts or materialistic things. Its simply the kind words you can say to a person to let them know that you care and are thinking about them. Yes the gifts are nice who doesn't enjoy a gift now and again but at least let it be for the right reasons and not because you feel like you have to give something to someone because its a "holiday".

Even though my husband isn't here I am going to enjoy this day with my little ladies. We will think about him while we are eating our chocolates and snuggling up to the teddy bears and looking at the beautiful flowers.

Happy Valentines Day to everyone and just because you are single doesn't mean this day isn't there for you as well. Lots of love to everyone today and every single day.

William Alfred, Thank you for once again surprising the girls and I and making a so-so day a fantastic day. You put smiles on all of our faces and made us miss you even more. We are getting closer to you being home. Love love love you, From your girls +F3 xoxoxo

PS. To see pictures of the girls with their teddy bears check out my Facebook page. *Kenna even has pig tails her hair. Its FINALLY getting long enough to do "some" stuff to it.

Perfection

Thats the best way to describe this night. I want to cry tears of happiness. These last 2 weeks have been long and exhausting. But just hearing the word "Babies" makes all of that disappear. Those long hard days don't matter anymore. I know my husband is safe, I got to hear that he loves me and misses me. I got to hear him laugh and know just by the sound of his voice that he was smiling and for that brief moment nothing else mattered. So very thankful for the littlest things. And how chance just plays apart of him being able to call. So extremely grateful and now I know I won't be having bad dreams tonight.

I miss him like crazy and thank goodness the days until he comes home are almost in double digits. Probably one of the best phone calls I have had in a very very long time.

I love my husband so very much and I miss him more then anything. This is one of those moments where I will hold onto it for a very long time.

I needed that phone call, I needed to hear his voice. I needed to hear I love you.

6 minutes, 6 perfect minutes.
