Quaker Oats

I received these (Free!) from www.bzzagent.com . I received them to give an honest review of the product. I must say. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new Quaker Oat Real Medleys. They were DELISH. If you like peach, you will absolutely love this flavor! They were bursting with peachyness. (I made that word up just to show you that I was not compensated to say that I LOVE these ! ) By far my most FAV oatmeal anything.

The other products were the same as Quaker oatmeal. Good. Yummy. But somewhat all the same. I would definitely purchase these items for myself and my family. I would definitely purchase those peach bars for me. Hidden. In my room. So no one else could find them. They are that good!

Nerf Rebelle

This was the first picture I was able to take. Do you know why?! Because Annika, my soon to be step daughter, was SUPER excited! I received What? Free? Courtesy of Whom?

I recieved this my dear reader(s)! The new Nerf Rebelle. BEFORE it was out in stores. I know. Exciting. Bzzagent.com sent me this, because they thought Annika might enjoy it and that I would give my honest opinion of this. She did enjoy it. As much as any girl would enjoy a toy bow. She loved it. Girly colors!

With Girly Ammo.

Amazing. While it doesnt shoot as far as it says it should, that could be our error (although, I did get it to shoot farther than her. so. yeah… :-P ). It works great. It shoots great. It entertains her and empowered her. I think this is going to be a great line for girls! I would recommend this to anyone with girls who enjoy being girly, but also enjoy a good nerf fight <3<3<3

and

Back from hiding!

Im BACK! Wow being a mom has kicked my butt. I dont have time for anything anymore now that I am living the Brady Bunch life. Do you REALIZE how much clothing 8 people create? GOODNESS GRACIOUS. I have been lucky enough to be reviewing some products lately, and I can not wait to share my thoughts. :) Please check back soon!

Stupid phone!

I just realized all my blogs I've posted (from my phone) are not posting. I will be sticking to my laptop for awhile!

Laundry...

This explosion has taken over an entire living room. This is only a quarter of the clothing! 10 people, 1 week...goodness gracious do I hate laundry.

Pre-k or Straight to Kindergarten?

Kaileb took his "test" today to see if he is eligible to start kindergarten early or not. His birthday is October 25 2008 so he falls in that category. From what I heard, I dont know if he is ready. He gets super nervous. He is so smart though!

I grabbed a pre-k form though...just in case. Anyone else wondering if they ahould send thier child to kindergarten early?

Bryce Edwin Gunder

Ahhh. This is my last baby. My 7 lb 2 oz baby boy is not 12 lb 1 oz. I am trying to enjoy EVERY minute of his babyhood… He is the happiest baby I have ever met. And he is the spitting image of his daddy.(Not fair! I did all the work and he gets all the credit!) Today I realized that he is growing up way to fast. He is already 2 months 2 weeks (6 days, 3 hours, 4 minutes…)… But really. He is almost 3 months old!I just had him. I was just screaming for the epidural. I just held him in my arms for the first time. My boyfriend does not find it funny when I say I miss him being inside me. He reminds me of my crying about how I just wanted him here in my arms and I would be so happy. (And I am… I am absolutely smitten…)But he needs to slow down. He is living the life.

He nurses like 20 hours a day (it seems like). He gets everything done for him. He coos and melts my heart. I’m not ready for crawling or walking or talking or yelling. I honestly wish I could video tape these first couple years. So I could go and watch them when I am at my wits end with him. I wish I had done that with my last two.

I have realized that I took my last two boys “babyhood” for granted. I didn’t think it would go by so fast. I didn’t realize I would be wishing for those days back so soon.

My other two were more difficult. Every thing about my pregnancy and birth just seemed more difficult. I think a lot of it was my unhappiness in my marriage. I had a alcoholic husband that was not nice and treated me like crap. He told me on multiple occasions how much he resented me, my pregnancy, my health issues, and “our kids”. It broke my heart. When your relationship is not that great, you don’t enjoy anything. I wish I could have that time back. I wish I could have been as happy as I am now with Jeff. But, you live and you learn.

On that note, I have been up for too long and I am starting to ramble…(or maybe I am finishing my ramble?)

I have 3 handsome little boys and I am so proud of them…I Can not wait to see what is to come <3

 

How did you feel during your children's “babyhood?”
