Day 3: Happy Birthdays! And other things...

I know I've said this the last few days but I am so tired today! I went to bed at two last night and got up at six this morning to finish a paper for my class. This paper was one of my midterm exams and I hope that everything went well! Ugh...I'm sorta worried about it, but being OCD that's not an uncommon feeling for me. I find that I stress about everything under the sun...especially being perfect...stupid I know but that's who I am...

Anyway, today we celebrated Hannah's birthday. I can't believe that she's already three years old! It's amazing! And yet at the same time it's really sad...I miss my baby girl being little (alrigth she's not that tall) but I wouldn't change the experiences that I have with her at this age. It's wonderful. Tonight for instance, as I was putting the kids to bed, Hannah wanted a hug and as I leaned down to give her a hug, she leaned up and gave me a big kiss on the forehead and wrapped her arms around my neck. Needless to say my heart melted...wouldn't yours? Liam was just as cute...he kept trying to shake my hand! It was hilarious.

For dinner tonight we had a delicious soup and "happies" as Hannah would call them. That term denotes cupcakes and she was so excited to help me make them. Hannah and Liam both took turns stirring the batter for me. And after I had frosted the chocolate cupcakes with pink cherry frosting we lit candles and sang "Happy Birthday" to Hannah. She was so happy and excited to blow out the candles.

Needless to say it was a good day :)

Day 2: A really quick note

Seeing as how it's rather late and I'm more than a little tired, this post will be short and too the point. I have school tomorrow and I feel overwhelmed at the moment. I have an essay test due and being the perfectionist that I am, I want everything to be worded correctly immediately as I write it. So I need to get some sleep because I am tired and my brain is a little overloaded from trying to process a variety of things all at once today. Wish me luck with that.

In other news, Hannah dressed up as a tinkerbell for church today. We decided to let her dress up because her birthday is tomorrow (technically speaking though it doesn't exist for another year) and we wanted her to feel special. She was so excited to go to church as a "pwincess" as she calls herself.

A new trick that Hudson learned is to roll over. I cannot believe it. He's not supposed to do that just yet! We're going to have a handful of curious baby in our lives...*deep breath*

And Liam? He's as curious as ever. The other day he walked into the kitchen and pulled a pitcher full of koolaid onto the floor, spilling it everywhere...alas I could only laugh at the situation...

Well that's all for now! I'll write again!

Day 1

Technically speaking it is Sunday, but since I haven't gone to bed I consider this to still be day 1 for me. So I'll count it as day 1 dangit! Anyway here's a little ramble from me:

I promise to get an update on here of all the things that have happened this past month. It has been a really hectic month and I want to do it justice by explaining everything in as much detail as possible. And that's simply not possible if I'm trying to rush and "catch up" as it were...or at least that's what would normally happen.

Can I just say that some days are WAY better than others? And today happens to not be one of my better days. This day has been filled with moments that have made me want to scream and then burst into tears. It's been so frustratingly depressing and scary and tiring all at the same time. I honestly don't know what to do...ugh...

I think that I walked to equivilant of 4 miles today...not sure if it is more or less, but I'll tell you one thing: my legs sure are tired! Sheesh...not to mention the fact that it was 17 degress outside...

Anyway that's all for now. I really need to get some sleep and hopefully gain some sanity.

365 Challenge

Alright, so I've already posted this twice before...once on my other blog and then again on my tumblr, but here we go again...I'll spare you the long winded version and just cut to the chase: I have decided that I am going to be a better writer and how I plan to achieve this is by writing consistently. So, I've challenged myself to write every single day on my blogs and in my journal and keep updated in my life. By doing this I hope to hone my writing skills as well as stay sane by getting my thoughts out on paper instead of stuck in my head. Sound good? I thought you'd say that...haha...starting tomorrow we begin the challenge...if I can do this you will have an amazing array of postings to contend with from me! Hopefully that's a good thing eh? Well then, wish me luck!
