Wow! It's been far too long since I've written a blog. I guess things get busy day to day and then this is one of the things that suffers. What's been going on? Well, let's see. The twins are still working on that pottying thing. They're actually doing okay. They're not all the way there yet, but we are all taking our time with it. I was able to at least bribe them to the potty by giving them treats:) For every time they potty in the potty they get a skittle. That sure did wake them up! What has happened now is even if they just squirt they want a treat. Well, I don't want to discourage them so I give them a treat. Lol! There are days where they get quite a few treats. Makes me think they have more control than what they want me to know. Crazy girls! So, that's all fine and good. I think they'll get it before too long. Frankly, I think they'd rather run around the house naked than anything. Sometimes when they've gone through several pairs of panties I just let them run around naked and before you know it, they're sittin' on the potty. Easy peasy. Probably not the best thing, but I get tired of chasin' them down to put panties on them. And who doesn't prefer to be naked? Lol.
It's school time again and I am glad for that. There are no longer complaints of being bored. Tristan is playing football and is practicing early in the morning due to the extreme heat. He has to be at school at 6:30 on the field, ready to go. He likes it and I'm glad. I didn't like, however, how he was going to practice and not eating all day. Silly boy! His body was done and tired by 3rd period at school. Seems as though we've got that resolved and now we're looking forward to his first football game.
Samantha started high school this year. I gotta say, it's quite a change for her, but she will adjust. I'm not worried. She's taking American Sign Language and loving it. I'm excited about this too because I always wanted to learn sign language and now she can teach me:) She's also taking drill team fundamentals with hopes of trying out for the drill team next year. Really she's just on a mission to learn how to dance. Hey, if she finds her rhythm in this class then I'm all for it. She wasn't born with rhythm but neither was I, so it's okay when she blames me. As she often does. At any rate, she will do great with everything and has had plenty of time for homework since she's been quite the teenager which equals grounding which equals lot of time at home:)
We discovered that Sebastian has gallstones and will need surgery. He had been complaining of chest pain and since we couldn't decipher what was going on we went to the dr and they sent us for a scan and it turns out it's gallstones. Now, he has to see a specialist and then we can move on. No fun for him, but I was his age when I had gallstones and had my gallbladder out. Guess he can blame dear ol mom for that. Sorry son!
Everything else is good. We are never bored even when we think we want to be. The house is usually a mess, there is usually somewhere to go and something to do and there are always kids to tend to! I hope you all are well! Until next time I will dance like there's no one watching, love like I've never been hurt, sing like no one is listening and live like it's heaven on earth. Take care everyone!!
