Random Tuesday Thoughts

This is my first Random Tuesday thoughts For Un Mom
I love her blog but usually on Tuesday I'm tired...ugh. So if you're here make sure you go over and check out the rest of the Random Thoughts Tuesday.

1) Dry erase marker will come off walls with a Mr Clean eraser fairly easy but not furniture....don't ask how I know this.

2) After 3 kids there is still room for surprises......I figured I had seen and done it all with the first 2 but Sage is giving me a run for my money.

3) Suave Coconut Shampoo repels lice.....who knew?

4) I finally watched Blindside........trying to get thru season 1 of Dexter.

5) I hate frogs.......we have tons due to living in the marshlands of GA and having ponds all thru our neighborhood......but I can let them go about their lives until they touch me.....one hid under the knob of the front door and I reached to close it .....UGH.....I hate Frogs !

Living in a construction Zone

It sucks. There is no nice way to put it. We figured by now we would at least have some houses on our side.....neighbors with kids would be nice. But ever since we moved in they have worked on all the land behind us, which we now know is gonna be another Cul De Sac road, so probably 8-10 houses on it. Its not even the house building crews that are bad its the road making, ditch digging stuff. Up there on top that is suppose to be the end of our street....nice huh?
This week Sage went to hourly daycare for 3 hours on Friday, she had a blast and was alot more cleaner then I figured she would be ( I strip her down to a Pull Up for meals ) after eating lunch. They said she followed directions well and played nice. Kael and Maddie are settling into a routine and are still doing well in their school work.

That lone little house on the left that would be ours.......the houses on the right only 2 have been sold and no kids : \
This week we are having meetings with CYS and medical staff about Kael's asthma, we have to have these every year for him to participate in activities. Getting ready for Kael's Birthday Saturday, and a teacher conference on Friday with Maddie's Teacher, I am hoping this is not gonna be a monthly thing : {

Learning to ride without training wheels

1) I was totally out of breath ( this had been going on forever and it was hot ) 2) I was not talking to myself, it was my nephew Nouri but you don't hear him until the end.

Sage Turned 2

We had my Sister Mary and her 2 kids here this weekend to celebrate. Her son started riding a bike without training wheels this year so I figured he was perfect to give Kael a little confidence boost. We bought Kael a early present of a big boy bike and in a hour he could balance and keep it straight. Practice Practice Practice.
Saturday we took everyone to Chuck E Cheese where Sage threw fits since she figures she should be allowed to do everything and not have Mommy every step of the way. We played Games for 2 hours and came home to Pizza, cake and opening gifts. We are a exhausted Household.
Thursday Maddie started with Sore Throat, runny nose and cough. Saturday Kael woke up with it and Today it was Sage's turn. So Back to the grind.
Hopefully We will get back on schedule and get some stuff done....including updating this blog more often.

Blog Hop 2010

Welcome to my blog, I'm so glad to see there are quite a few blogger's not in NY this weekend.
I am Kim former police officer turned mommy to 3 and Army wife. My blog was created to keep Hub's ( who travels alot for his job ) up to speed on the homefront....but I have been lucky to also connect with other mothers and wives.

We just got to Coastal Georgia after a year in Kansas and my husband is currently deployed. Glad you stopped by, please leave a comment or follow so I can return the favor. I am gonna try to visit all but I see it's already 100+ . If you are here and not a blogger please visit Blog Hop 2010 .

I do not need a 5 year old with a weight complex,thankyouverymuch

Today was Maddie's CYS physical and the NP who saw her asked alot of questions and was very through. I was a little thrown when she said Maddie was considered overweight or "a little heavy for her age" but they are not concerned about it since it usually evens out as they grow. Also she noticed according to Maddie's sheet she has always been "a little heavy".......First I heard of this?????? Don't get me wrong .......she has issues with Low Muscle tone and was always chunky but never would I consider her overweight ......it has even been brought to our attention that she is gonna be tall probably taller then Brian and I. But what bothered me was this was all said in front of Maddie .....esp limiting our sugar intake, less juices, more activity, ETC . So at dinner Maddie is all worried about what can she drink, what can she eat.....which then causes a long boring conversation about eating healthy, playing more....blah blah......something I should not be having to do at 5 years old.....do I think she could eat healthier ? of course......do I think she could run and play more ? of course.....but its not something she should be concerned about.
But thankfully she is cleared for sports and hopefully lots of fun this Fall. Tomorrow is Kael's Physical and of course with his asthma it friggin takes forever for him to be cleared but keep your fingers crossed for us. The clinic was packed with kids getting their last minute school physicals....only 3 more days. Sage has been having a time with Eczema ......she has always had it but since we got here she has had more frequent "flare ups" so today was Vit E oil which seems to have helped.
We also finally made it to the library on post, it was very nice.....not to crowded but Sage in a place where she must be quiet and can possibly damage stuff is not good....but the kids got some books.......and my wonderful reader picks out a bunch of Where's Waldo books......I will never understand that boy????

BTW......Can't you just hear her saying "whatcha talkin about Willis?????"

Everyday View

This is where we live.....everyday its a new adventure to see what kind of progress has been made and what has changed. I honestly do not think the people out here know what they are doing. They started digging a retaining pond ....then they filled it....then they dug it again....and now its filled and it looks like they are putting in a road??? So far there are only 3 of us living on this side of the road.
This week the printer died ......it could probably be fixed but I have tried all I can and the other printer we have for photos, the ink cost as much as a new printer. So I ordered a new one....hoping I can make do without one until it arrives from Amazon. Kids did get School supplies, back packs, school uniforms and new shoes this week. Sage got her CYS Physical done and the Dr found she had a ear infection, but she is good for hopefully some fun classes??? Maddie gets her's Monday, Kael is Tuesday, Weds is open house at the school and Thursday is their 1st day.
So hopefully we will get to some sort of schedule this week..........Hopefully !!!!
