   Dear Baby Girl,  you are hot and cold girl.  You drove me nuts all day today with your sassy little attitude and then you were the SWEETEST little thing at bed time.  Your goods outweigh your bads every single day and that's all that matters sweet girl.  Ps. you have been GREAT with your brother lately.  Keep it up!   Dear Little Man,  dude, you are growing way too quickly for my liking.  You are only four months old and you already have your first tooth and I'm pretty sure you're cutting your second.  Slow down little man.  Keep up the smiles and laughs.  I can't get enough of those. Dear 2014, I will set goals for you and I will achieve all of those goals.  No more crap.  (watch for my non-resolution post soon)   Dear iPhone, I'm really just not impressed.  I thought that I really liked you but the longer I have your, the more little irritations I find with you.  I gue...

This week, I'm saying So What if... I am almost two days late with this post but I really didn't want to miss it again. New Year's Eve has proven to me even more that I cannot drink like a 21 year old.  Over it. I hate how little I've been blogging lately. I hate it even more that I haven't had a chance to read any blogs. I have so many posts to write it's not even funny.  I'm so behind.  Dam holidays! Even though I'm sad that Christmas is over, I'm also kind of happy that I took all of our decorations down.  They really just clutter our already tiny house. I have no idea where I'm going to put all of the toys my kids got for Christmas.  My Mom went way overboard and I will have to send some toys to Goodwill. Little Man cut his first tooth already!!  I can't believe he has a tooth! Baby Girl is about to cut her last set of molars.  Two kids teething.  Sucks balls. I love really sad m...

   Dear Baby Girl,  we are pretty impressed by your lack of enthusiasm for your Christmas gifts.  You opened our gifts at home but wanted nothing to do with gifts the rest of the day.  That's pretty impressive for a two year old.  Shows us that we are really teaching you what is valuable in life.  Let's see how you do next year.   Dear Little Man,  you ripped off more wrapping paper than your big sister!  You also seemed quite happy with your gifts.  Lots of things that jingle and that you can grab onto. Dear 2013, you were pretty great (minus a few sad endings).  Let's see what 2014 has to bring!   Dear Beamer, I'm glad we got you fixed but it's time for you to go.  I love you but I'm sorry.  I can't be crossing my fingers in hopes that you will start.  I need something more reliable.  We will be parting ways very soon my friend. Dear Christmas, you were hectic but you rocked....

   Dear Baby Girl,  I still can't believe you are two.  You have been the sweetest little girl and I can't even believe how lucky I am to be able to call you mine.  I see the terrible twos coming out of you slowly but we still have more good days than bad so I'll take it!   Dear Little Man,  you, my little boy, have just been so sweet.  You are the happiest little baby just like your sister.  Your sleeping has been better and you totally rocked your 4 month appointment.  You are growing like a weed and I can't even tell you how much I love your little laugh.  Oh and that smile....kills me! Dear family photos, you were awesome!  We got so many cute pictures! Dear Wal-Mart, you did a great job with our Christmas card but why do you always suck with prints?  You always cut the heads off in prints.  I just don't understand how you can screw up something so easy.  Dear Christmas...

This week, I'm saying So What if... Most days I don't get to eat breakfast until lunch time  Both kids always manage to wake up and want to eat at the same time. We took both kids for their check ups on Monday.  I thought Ashlyn was going to get some shots but she didn't.  So thankful for that.  Little Guy was a champ for his. I'm so glad we got Baby Girl a kitchen for her birthday but I forgot about how much fake food I would have to eat and how much fake tea I would have to drink. Little Man is sleeping in his crib now and it makes me very happy.  We still don't have a great sleeping pattern down but at least he is in the crib. I have a feeling we are going to need a bigger house to just accommodate all the toys my mom and grandmother bought baby girl for Christmas. My wonderful German POS vehicle has basically decided to take a shit.  We have to have it towed to the mechanic and I am vehicle-less. I am ha...

    Dear Nan, I'm so saddened by your passing that I feel the need to dedicate today's letters to you only.  You passed away on Sunday, just after I left from visiting you.  While I'm glad I got to see you one more time, I am haunted by the fact that if I had just stayed a little bit longer, you wouldn't have been alone.  It was hard to see you unresponsive and struggling to breath.  It was hard see you, once the big traveler, singer, piano player, in that way.  But I knew I needed to see you.  I honestly wasn't expecting you to pass so quickly.  I wanted to call the Chaplin before we left but thought I would have more time.  I thought maybe I'd come back the next day and call on him then but I was out of time. Even though your mind wandered the past few years and you didn't really know who many of your family members were anymore, you were always happy to see people.  Your face always brightened and you always smiled from ...
