Happy Memorial Day!

I would like to take the time today to thank the service members and their families who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country! 

I am so lucky that my husband came home safe from his deployment to Afghanistan! 

While my husband was deployed he got the honor of meeting Sergeant First Class Leroy A. Petry.  He is a  Medal of Honor Recipient for his brave actions that saved the lives of his Ranger Brothers! President Obama said this about him during the ceremony, "Every human impulse would tell someone to turn away. Every soldier is trained to seek cover. That's what Sergeant Leroy Petry could have done. Instead, this wounded Ranger, this 28-year-old man with his whole life ahead of him, this husband and father of four, did something extraordinary. He lunged forward, toward the live grenade. He picked it up...and threw it back - just as it exploded."

You can read the whole story here.

So during your BBQ's and nice 3 or 4 day weekends remember the real reason you have the day off and thank the soldiers that have and are fighting for our country. Whether you support the war or not remember that the men and women of the Armed Forces fight for you everyday. 

Friday's Letters

                                                            

Dear husband, I hope you had a fun time at the Van Halen concert.

Dear Monica, Thank you for letting me vent to you. Im sure any other person would have been totally irritated with me whining all the time!

Dear Miley, I am so proud of you! 2 Nights with no night-night(pacifier) and then last night you told me you were ready to be a big girl and wear your big girl undies to bed!! You are growing up way too fast!

Dear Delilah (my bulldog), will you please learn that you go potty outside. You were doing so good, but this last week has been hell and I don't like picking up your mess especially 5 minutes after we were just outside!

Dear neighbors, will you please stop parking all of your cars in front of our house. Im sorry you rented out rooms in your house but 6 cars for 1 house is not fair to us. Please figure it out before I have to become not nice.

Dear readers, you have no idea how happy I am that you stop by my blog. Please feel free to say hi it would make my day! 

Have a wonderful weekend!!

It's OK Thursday!

Wow. I honestly cannot believe its Thursday already! Maybe it's because I missed work monday to stay home with my sick baby but it really went by fast! (Not that I am complaining, the fast the better!!)
It's OK.....
that most days I am ready to start drinking by noon!
that some days I would rather sleep in then style my hair.
that I haven't been very nice to my husband lately.

that I am not bringing my daughter to her 1st dance recital because the people there are complete drama and I can't handle it anymore and I would not be surprised if this studio ceased to be around by the fall! 

that I am just gonna get her all dolled up and take pictures and have her perform her dance for us.

that I am getting back on track with my fitness and health goals after getting sick and falling off track for a couple weeks.

to sometimes just wanna stay in and drink wine by myself and read blogs.

to get completely irritated when you call or text someone and they don't answer or respond right away! Especially when they JUST called or texted you!

to want to find a blogger meet up in Colorado!

to sometimes miss the days of being single and having no kids, it was just so much easier to only have to look out for myself.

that in 1 week my baby will be 4 and I just don't know how that is possible!!!

to have signed up for the Warrior Dash and be afraid that I may die while doing it.

So what is OK with you this week go link up with Neely and Amber!

Also on a side note you should go sign up to join the Swap into Spring Swap!

Have a great Thursday!!!

Funny Story

I honestly cannot wait until Miley is older and has a boyfriend so I can embarass her with all of the hilarious things she did when she was little!!!

So a bit of back story... Our mini Doxie is litter box trained. I could not get her to go potty outside so I read online that they were easy to train in a litter box, so I did it and it was super easy. So during the day I have to keep her locked up in an area with her litterbox so she knows to go in there. A few weeks ago I moved the litter box into our downstairs bathroom temporarily until we got her new kennel in.

One afternoon we were all hanging out in the living room watching tv and Miley gets up and tells me she has to go potty. So I tell her to go in the bathroom and tell me when she is done. So a few minutes pass and my husband goes in to check on her, because she will start playing in the sink and there will be soap everywhere (she has done that a lot!)

So all of a sudden I hear "what are you doing!!! Miley that's the dogs!!!" So I jump up and run in there Miley is squating over the dogs litter box about to pee!!!! She started crying cause she was all embarassed, so I just explained that only dogs or kittys use litter boxes and that people have to use the toilet!!

I have never laughed so hard in my life!! I literally almost pissed my self!! I wish I had my camera with me so I could have gotten a pic of this little person squatting over the litter box!!!

Has anyones kid ever done anything like this? Or did you ever do anything like this when you were little?

It's OK Thursday!

It's OK that I am so excited for our monthly book club get together tonight!

It's OK that Monica and I got together and made Penis cookies for bookclub last night lol!

It's OK to drink lots of Sangria. Yum

It's OK that I think my daughter is going to be the class clown. She loves getting everyones attention constantly. And is always dancing or singing to get that attention.

Its OK that I am bummed that the season finale of Greys Anatomy is on tonight while I am at bookclub.

It's OK that my husband is currently irritating the hell out of me. Honestly.

It's OK that I am really looking forward to August for BlogHer! I need a vacation!!

Welp thats all I got today. Make sure to go link up with Neely and Amber!!

Have a great Thursday!
