Ah Hotel life

It's actually not that bad, today the maid came and changed the bedding, cleaned the tub, toilet and sink. Vacuumed, washed down the mirrors (there's lots of mirrors in this room! LOL) and changed the trash. NICE! I may move here
It's really big too, i'd say at least 500 sq ft, 2 little rooms that are open to each other and a bathroom vanity area and a toilet/tub room. Not too shabby of AT&T! Anyhow, no clue on how long we will be here...could leave this fri, next fri, fri after next...they wont say. I hate that not knowing :(

Anyhow here's us hanging at the hotel that has GREAT LIGHT!


Landon and his fav toy of the moment, and he's got two new teeth! Two top teeth! If I can hold him still I will post a pic of them, so cute :)


Andrew is eating a pb&j sandwich ON THE BED, that's right..things that arent allowed at home are allowed when someone else is doing the cleaning! WOOHOO! :)

My humps My humps

My lovely baby lumps!

First steps

Someone save me, my 7 month old child is trying to take steps away from things. He will steady himself then just GO...then fall, then cry. I need to get him a helmet seriously. He's NOT ready to do it but he wants to SO BAD b/c he wants to keep up w/ big bro. Please stay my baby Landon. :(

Here's a step I caught!

We went shopping today

I needed some retail therapy bad after this last week! I tried so hard to be good, I was :) Gap had extra 25% off sale prices and believe me I walked away from A LOT! I did get some underoos for Andrew for about $5 for 3 pair in a pack! Two packs! And a pair of jeans for Landon for about $6.50! Nice soft pull on ones too LOVE THEM. And a Halloween top for Andrew, you know b/c we are in TX and he needs a long sleeve halloween tee when it's 86 high everyday.

Anyhow I also spent a measly lone ONE gymbuck (dont worry I've spent the other ones online dont feel bad for me! LOL) And I got landon the cutest little outfits, and Andrew some train underoos (he had to immediately try them on)

Here's Landon in some of his redemption outfits, I'm SO SO glad I got these!

Not me Monday

Stole this idea from my friend kerry that got it off another blog. Click the banner on the left there if you want to join!

Yesterday I DID NOT not make dinner for my child and go get fried chicken because I can eat on and not cook for 2 days at least.

I DID NOT let my child watch tv all day so I could just be depressed and sit around all day

I DID NOT put the kids to bed an hr early so I could get an hr more of "me time" (dont worry it didnt last long and I paid for it later b/c Landon was up at 11pm)

I DID NOT just put a pullup on my kid b/c I'm tired of him peeing in the floor constantly

I DID NOT give my child tylenol last night not just because he's teething but in hopes that he would sleep longer b/c I gave it to him.


Honestly I've been wondering how single parents do it. I mean honestly I think it would be easier if I had a job, so I could GET AWAY. I love my kids to death I do but at least when my husband is here if I want to, even if I dont, I have the option to just walk away from situations. Landon is teething its 2 teeth at once and he's been a living nightmare. Not to mention he just learned how to pull up on the side of his crib and he just pulls up and stands there and screams as soon as I shut the bedroom door. He wont let me rock him to sleep, he wont sleep when I lay him down anymore. I'm not even sure what to do
And Andrew, regressing so much on potty training. I'm sure because his daddy has been gone for 4 days now.
I'm so depressed and lonely, I am trying so hard to keep myself busy but on top of being stressed about the kids I just miss my husband. And I never thought I'd say that but I do. Apparently I am not the independent strong person I had perceived myself as. I am needy and pathetic.

Oh and I am NOT getting a cold or flu or something





The end!

We have a stander!

He went from a week ago showing no signs of pulling up, except maybe a few failed attempts and falling over to pulling up on EVERYTHING this week. I thought for sure he was just never going to do it, now I'm regretting ever wanting him to! But I will take it, my first one did everything so early at least this one is staying a baby too!

We are also getting teeth, 2 teeth on the top that just havent popped through and his poor little gums are just swollen and you can feel the bumps. I actually resorted to giving him tylenol last night, tonight we tried motrin. He just cries and cries. I hate doing it but obviously he's in some pain. :(

Craft time! :)

Yes I did a craft, and I LOVE IT! Inspired by a blog someone shared with me http://joysofhome.blogspot.com/ I set off to make some initial blocks! I have some scrapbooking paper I bought for the boys blocks too that are really cute, I cant wait to make the collage in their rooms w/ the block and some maternity/baby pics!

Anyhow, here's the B, we havent found a home for it yet but it looks really funny where I have it sitting :)
