A mess, and a beautiful mess.

Its wonderful to me to wake up to a clean house..I dont think theres much more than can surely put me in a good mood when I first wake up.

Lets just say that A) Since im a planner, B) Were moving soon, I dont think that theres anyway I can wake up to that "clean house feeling".

Therefore I figured I would snap a few photos this am and share my discust sheer disappointment when I first wake up. I mean I try to clean and straighten the best I can, but I know theres not much to be done and its driving me nuts.

At least my beds are made right?

Only a few more days in this mess!

I did get one amazing photo, its of a mess alright.

Yup, that girl right there. Shes my beautiful mess, and nothing in this world makes me happier.

Hello July!

I can NOT believe, OK maybe I can  that half of 2011 is gone already.

This woman has got to get down to business on her 101. I have lots of slacking to catch up on.

Slacker RIGHT here!

(Raises her had a waves vigorously)

Life's not slowing down at all really, Seems to be only growing and growing. (that's what she said)! HA OK anyways. So lemme give u a down low on whats been going on with me and my little life.

My girl is now 3 1/2, and boy is she such of a sassy little girl. This parenting this is a beautiful mess isn't it? I just love it to pieces. Evey morning she wakes up and comes and cuddles with me for about 5-10 mins, and its like "our" time for the day. She now tells me what she wants to wear and dresses her self. She writes her name, and loves to learn and write more and more every day.

We have had to extend bedtime. We never had a problem with the time change until this summer. Since she wakes up at ya know, the ass crack of dawn 6:45, we decided that it wont hurt her to go to bed at nine, when shes good and tired. I tried 8:30 but she was still tossing and turning and finding excuses to come out her room. So nine has been working great. She loves to go swimming and going to the beach this year.

My darling "very teenage" sister had come to send the summer with us like usual, and for that we were soo very excited about. Come to find out she wanted to make this situations a little more PERMANENT. EKK

HECK YES??

Getting to have a real relationship with her again, I think so!

Getting to watch her and help her grow into a beautiful, and amazing young lady, I think so!

Getting to help her get a first job and help her through her senior year, I think so!

(this could go on and on)

Needless to say we are all so excited. Not only for our family to grow bigger, but for us to all be together. I can have my sister again FINALLY! Alyssa can have her aunt ( cause she just adores her aunt Kala not really sure why, ha ha JK), and Greg looks to her like his little sister. Its all just lovely.

Greg and I, we are doing just lovely! We have had our ups and down, but quickly realized that we are good for each other. I don't know if we have ever been better.

So that's that, were going to be moving soon to accommodate that very teenager darling sister of mine. Bigger place, means another room to decorate. Maybe this time I will actually blog about that decorating process. Only if I was as good as the lovely YHL, or BPB. They are amazing and rock my socks.

Hope everyone is having a lovely day, thanks for joining us in

Not me monday!

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama.. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

-I DID NOT leave at 12 to get to the hair salon, by 12:30, and get stuck by the same funeral TWICE! To finally get there and be right on time. Good thing I was NOT getting impatient.

-I DID NOT leave that salon lookin and FEELING fabulous, I might say.

-I DID NOT have a few drinks at this christmas party and have a damn good time. I danced my little heart away and it FELT SO GOOD!!

-I DID NOT get  in a nasty horrible little argument with the hubby, and totally left him in a parking lot.. at night... in jacksonville. I didnt then go pick him back up cause I felt bad, even though it was his fault.. (yes yes everything is all better now)

-We DID NOT get breakfast at cracker barrel, sat morning for breakfast, and it was not absolutly amazing..

And if ur wondering.. I didnt not look around and no I did not by this WONDERFUL sign for my porch!

-We DID NOT waste away the rest of the saturday doing a big nothing, and watching life time movies.. NO not the gallardos, they have too much of a social life. I did do a small photo shoot though.

-We DID NOT go to church sunday morning, and man did it feel good to be back. It was like a big breath of fresh air. Then it was off to walmart for a few things. And NO, we were not suckered into buying lyssa a plastic pool and the absolutly LOVE! Then dinner, walked, cleaned, and army wives it was.

Hope everyone had a good weekend like we had. Thanks for joining us in this journey we call life.

Then going home to get all Prissy, and pretty. We have the ships christmas "Holiday" party. Thats right  Since the ship was on deployment they are having a late party. OOh well just another reason to get all dressed up and pretty.

Sad My poor sweet baby, has been making me quite sad lately. I know none of this is her fault, but she keeps getting sick, and it makes me so sad. To top that off, shes so scared of the water now. Its all becasue of them derned swim lessons that I thought she would love.. ya NOT! Yesterday she screamed bloody MURDER when I was giving her a bath.

Having anxiety becasue my house is soo over due spring cleaning. YES thats right im going to admit that my house need a full spring clean. ITS SOO BAD.. Just who really has the time for that stuff?? Im gonna be moving in less than 3 months so why would am I stressing so much about it?

NOT having starbucks on friday. Why you ask? Cause I havent been craving them sadly. So untill I really really want it, I dont wanna spend the 5 bucks for it.

Feeling crampy.. ya this Ms. Flow shit is for the birds.

Wishing.. I am wishing that I would make up my damn mind.. LOL I have all these wants and I cant have everything. SO I guess that means I gotta figure out whats the best idea.
