Happy Tuesday ya’ll! Oh, and Happy November!

I usually have so many things that I want to write about while I doing stuff through the day then when I sit down and open Blogger, I can NEVER remember.

Sucks.

I am going to TRY (I reallllly am) to blog every single day in November. Since Thanksgiving is in November and it is afterall a day for giving thanks, I am going to write about something I am thankful for. Of course, I will have other topics thrown in because for some reason I can never stay on topic.

So, today? I am Thankful (yes, I capitalized it) (yes, I know it shouldn’t be) for my two healthy baby boys. Since becoming apart of the blogging world, I have read many (MANY!) stories. I follow peoples lives. (A little weird, yes?) There are many moms out there just like me. There are some moms out there that blog because it helps them to cope. Some moms whos babies/children have gotten their angel wings much to soon. You get drawn in. Your heart feels heavy. You wish there was something you could for them. And that, folks? Is why I am thankful for Leon & Logan and their health.

When I open my Internet in the morning I sign on to Facebook. (Who doesn’t?) Then? Blogger. I have a long list of blogs I read. Some of them are just moms like me who like to document their children and growing up, some are telling their journeys through trying to conceive and being pregnant, some (like I said earlier) just wanna write about their feelings for losing their child, and some are just artsy blogs. They are all good. 

Next..

Halloween. Everyone knows (no? well…) I hate Halloween. It’s a sour topic for me. I wasn’t going to even take the boys out, I wasn’t gonna buy them a costume… My cousin (their Godmother) decided to buy them costumes. I am so happy she did. They rocked those costumes for 3 days straight. Leon was a Blue Crayon and Logan was a Red Crayon. They were so cute. My decision to take them out was solely based on the fact that they would love being outside, love seeing the other kids, love being in the wagon & it would get me out of the house too. Oh, and free candy! (Duh)

Anyways, my cousin brought her little girl over who is 6 months older then L & L. We loaded them up in the wagon and started walking around. Before long, they were all out of the wagon begging for candy with the best of them. They picked up on the whole concept pretty quick. Leon was running for the next house. Funny thing is, I don’t ever give my kids candy. Like MAYBE they get a sucker when they are getting their hair cut. So for the life of me I can’t figure out how they know that candy is the good stuff. Anyways, before long Logan was throwing a fit. He didn’t wanna walk, he didn’t wanna be held, he didn’t wanna be in the stroller.. until I gave him a sucker that is. He was all stretched out in the wagon, feet kicked back, arm hanging over the edge, lollipop in his mouth.. yelling “GO!” everytime Jordan stopped the wagon. Towards the end, both kids were laying in the wagon all bundled in blankets. They wanted to be home, and so did I!

The night ended with a little cuddling on the couch with my 2 favorite guys. We watched some Mickey. Drank some milk. Maybe shared a little Reeses Cup.

Their second Halloween was pretty good.

OH! Come back tomorrow for the deets on my giveaway!! 25 FREE photocards from Shutterfly! :-)

 (They did NOT want to stand still for a picture, can't you tell?!)

 (Yes, we rock red jammie pants under a blue suit- what of it!?)

What are you thankful for?

Thursdays Top 10

I am going to start something new today. Thursday Top 10 can be any topic I feel like writing about. I usually always write Top 10's when the year is coming to an end. On Myspace I used to do it every week. I got a lot of comments on them, so here we go.

Top 10 favorite things about TODAY:

10.  The TIGERS are playing right now against the Yankees in the Playoffs! Let's go Tigers, eat em up!

(The twins have on their Tiger gear here! My future ball players!)

9. Today I bought some new (different) things for the boys to eat. They are so picky so I am trying to new things.

8. The Ellen Show was so funny today! Derrick & Ricki from DWTS were on. Love them.

7. Oh, I got my hair cut today. It's really short. I love it though!

6. As I was taking a shower, baby Leon came walking in with his rubber ducky & fish. He thought he was going to take a shower with me lol

5. I got more followers on Twitter (What can I say? Today was not eventful and pretty much sucked besides these things lol)

4. Last night (yes, it's considered today because it was after midnight) Leon and Logan slept all night. FINALLY. We have been having mad issues with this.

3. My chicken I had for lunch was yummy.

2. My house has been somewhat clean today :-)

1. KELLY! I had lunch with Kelly today! I've missed her. It was so nice to catch up. And she did the nicest thing. Not one person has ever did this. She said..

She wants to come get the twins on Sunday and spend time with them. And give me time to myself! I mean, if I ask my mom to, she usually watches them... but for someone to offer. Blows my mind. I am so grateful for friends like her.

That is all. See you soon.

Randoms.

Hi all

Last night the boys had the worst night of sleep EVER. I was so annoyed. I am actually mad at myself for being upset with them. I am their mother. I shouldn't have complained. But on another note...

Toddlers are so fricken picky! Not only with what they eat, but with their sleeping patterns, their toys, one day like they shoes the next? Don't even try it!

I'm still really sleepy from last night.

We took the boys to the Hands on Museum on Sunday. They had so much fun! They laughed, played, ran around, fell down, shared, and cried. I love seeing them explore new environments.

Oh, now when someone asks me if "they are running all over the place!?!" I can, "Yes, THEY are." You guys, Leon is officially a walker! I'm such a proud mama.

I don't remember if I blogged about this before or not, but you know how Logan had severe eczema last year? After months of it, I finally narrowed it down to bananas.. I thought that's what it was. He didn't have any more breakouts... (Except for 2 spots on the back of his calves) Well, yesterday I gave Logan a piece of a banana.. and so far so good. :-)

Does anyone watch Ringer? It's the new show on the CW with Sarah Michelle Gellar. I.freaking.love.it. It's on tonight. I can't wait to watch it!

I've been slacking again on blogging. I just don't know what to write about.

I still miss my girl. Maxi. I almost when to an adoption clinic Petsmart had and adopted a dog. I decided I'm not ready.

I won some tickets on the radio to see Enrique Iglesias and Pitbull. I don't even know why I called really. I just heard, be caller 95 right now.. lol The concert is this Friday. We aren't going to go. I'm thinking of going to get the tickets and giving them away to someone.

:-)

Well, what's new!?

IF..

I've been seeing this on blogs lately and I think it's pretty fun. I've yet to do the accent VLOG because I can't figure out how to do my webcam. I really need to figure it out because we wanna start skyping with our bestie Amanda. Oh.. back to the game. We are supposed to fill in the blanks :-) Here we go!

**
If I were to get pregnant again I would be freaked the EFF out, then thank God for another blessing (or two?), then do nothing different. I had a great first time pregnancy with the twins..

If I could have any job in the world I'd be a planner of some sort. Wedding, party, etc.

If I had a day to myself I would probably sleep & watch movies.

If I could get married all over again I would probably not change anything. OR, I would just get married in Vegas and come back and throw one hell of a party.
If I could live anywhere in the US I would probably stay here. In MI. I like the seasons.

If Leon & Logan would have been girls or boy/girl twins, they would've been called Leah/Olivia or Leon/Leah (Leon would've been a given because daddy wanted him to be the third.)

If I could have any talent in the world I would like to be more creative and artistic.

If you met me in real life you'd be shocked that I can have a bit of a potty mouth.

If I could go back to school I'd be more determined to finish!

If money were not an object I'd live in a big house, have fancy cars, be debt free, and shop. A lot.

If I could meet one celebrity I think I would wanna meet.. the cast of Friends. I know it says one, but I can't choose one!

If I could only shop at one store for the rest of my life it'd probably be Target.

If we get another pet, I would have to be ready.. I still miss Maxi.

If I could go on a trip, RIGHT NOW, I'd want go to Cancun!

If I had to chose between a house cleaner and a personal chef, I'd pick the house cleaner. I hate cleaning.

If I had the option of plastic surgery I'd get lypo and a tummy tuck - carrying twins is ROUGH on a body!!!

Well? Your turn!
