moving....

so it has been a very long time since i have posted anything on here. i forget! haha. i think it has to do with the fact that i am still rather new at blogging and i don't know what i am doing with my layout and it drives me crazy every time i get on here haha. anyways, we are moving in with my parents. blah! hopefully it will only be like till december or so. that is what we are trying for. i have learned so many lessons though by having to make this decision. don't ever rely on overtime as a source of income! we are now going to put any OT into savings! don't stretch all your income into payments either. ugh wow you would think i would be smarter but it is like oh we have room for that payment. well then OT gets cut and what happens? you have to move in with your parents for 6 months haha. Oakley is taking it harder than me. i think it is because he is the provider and the stress lays on him to provide for us. so life has been hard, but i am actually relieved to be moving in to a certain degree. no more financial stress for a little while. i think it will help me be a better mom too because my mom is the most organized and clean person i know and i think i can learn a lot from her and get into some good habits. also there will be a big yard for maylee to play in. she is gonna love it so much! i know it will be stressful in other ways but i can handle them i think. we are moving in on the 2nd or 3rd. not quite sure now because we need to figure out what days oakley has off for sure. i am actually looking forward to that because right now we are half packed and living in boxes and a mess and i might rip my hair out haha. other than that not much has happened. school is going great. maylee is getting 4 molars though and is struggling! i have to work very hard to be patient with her. her nap times are also disappearing but in some ways it is good because she goes to bed about 7:30 right now and wakes up about 7-7:30 so she is sleeping 12 hours! wow. today i am watching my two cousins. one is 6 months older than maylee and one is 3 months older than faith. both girls. haha i will have 4 girls today! i now i will know what it would be like to have 2 sets of twins haha. we will see how it goes but i think maylee and maddie will play awesome together. they are so good and get along great. faith and lizzie just stare at eachother, grab faces, and try to figure out what they are haha. so wish me luck. i gotta get back to cleaning now! yay!

great day

ok so i am hoping it is working better. i got a new template for the blog so i hope it looks ok. i don't know if it is cutting of words or what not. anyways this weekend was awesome. oakley and i went to the larry h miller motorsports park and watched the world super bike race. it was sooo fun. those bikes went like 180 miles an hour! so crazy. my mom watched the girls for us so we just went and it was nice. then we moved in some couches and man i am out of shape! it was an interesting experience but i like them now that they are in haha! all i know is i need to work out. that is for sure. so that is gonna be my goal. get in shape and lose some weight! today we went to church. i think it has been atleast 3 months since we were all well enough to go to church all together and it was really nice to be able to all go. then we came home and had lunch, and all took naps. it was so nice. today was a really good day. i hated it when oakley had to go to work. hopefully he has a good night. the girls went down early though so it has been good to just keep relaxing. the dishes are everywhere though and i am trying really hard not to go in the kitchen so i don't freak out haha. i hope the night keeps going great and that the girls sleep good.

figured out!

ok so i think i got this figured out. post a comment if it is strange or looks weird or any tips on how to fix it. i think i am happy with the layout and background though.
so i really should get to bed. i have a sinus infection and maylee has an ear infection and faith has a really bad cold. ugh. my mom is the best mom in the whole entire world though. she is coming over tomorrow to help me watch the girls so i can clean my house. since our schedules are so crazy lately with oak on graves and me in school our house has suffered terribly! i need so desperately to clean it. my mom offered her help so i just want to publicly thank her! i love her so much. i hate asking for things like this so i never will. but for her to offer that is so great. she is however the cleanest person i know so having her see all the dirty places is rather embarrassing. i am just glad she understands. haha. i really need to go to bed and get some sleep for tomorrow. i hope the girls don't wake up at 430am like they did today. wish me luck

just testing

just trying to figure out this whole layout thing and see if this new one works. it might take me a few tries

houses

so we have been discussing getting a house. ugh it is so stressful and frustrating. it is like i want it sooo bad but i don't want to get my hopes up because then i will just be let down. i don't know what to do. we need to do is sell our trucks. yes plural, truckS. we have 2 of them. and that is where all our debt is. if we could sell them or figure something out we would have no issue with a house... but... the market sucks haha. especially for trucks. so that is my vent for now. i hope that it does work out. we are going to look into it anyways and just hope and pray for the best.

summer!

i am so excited that the weather is warming up and hopefully it is on a more permanent basis now. This winter has been horrible. i love the christmas season and everything, don't get me wrong, but my kids have been constantly sick. well, mostly maylee. she is always always sick. i am hoping the warm weather will change that! right now my two girls and oakley are all recovering from illnesses. Faith has had such a bad cold that she can barely breathe out of her nose, poor thing. maylee has had a cough, and a cold, and Oakley has had a very bad viral cold, fever, congestion, headache, etc. i feel bad for him. I really hope i don't get it because we are going camping to the dunes this weekend without the girls and i really want to enjoy myself. i will go no matter what! so needless to say i hope this weather stays good and that we all recover and stay healthy for the next little while!
