Since this year Justice had chicken pox and with so many small children in my family it was a given that we would be staying home. Then aaron's family also did not want it so that was another stay home, so we stayed home for mother's day. It was wonderful, Aaron went and got breakfast, Justice and Aaron both got me cards, then I ran and got coffees which was needed. Then I got Justice down for his nap and I got in the shower, and got ready for the day. I like sometimes to just lounge around the house in my pjs and not get ready for the day. Then when Justice got up I decided that we would take him to the park to play. He had so much fun swinging, sliding down the slides, and chasing squirles and just running around the play equipment. All and all it was a wonderful mother's day, then after justice went to bed me and the hubby curled up on the living room floor and watched a movie, that was after we ate way to much dinner and did not feel so well.

I love being a mother,
wiping noses,
changing diapers
cleaning up messes
kissing owes
tucking him into bed
going in at least 5 times before he falls asleep
giving baths
making food
doing laundry
hearing momma
the kisses and hugs
everything is just so wonderful about being a mom even the no sleep and worrying when they are not feeling well or making sure that their bumps and bruises do hurt any more

I got a trial sample in the mail from Dove and coupons the other day (well it was full sized which was nice). This deodorant is wonderful and smells really nice too. I have never really tried anything new since I found something that worked and I have always stuck with that, but since this was free I wanted to try it and I really like it. It goes on smooth and covers nicely, I smells wonderful and keeps you dry. It also keeps you stubble free longer which is an added plus all in its own. It offers 24 hours wetness and order protection so you can not worry all day and all night and with little ones we all know how important that is. This deodorant is one of the best that I have ever tried, it feels nice and does not get all over your clothes or clump up like other ones do. This is something that I will keep in my bathroom to use everyday.
So here it is my first giveaway:
I have 24 coupons to giveaway to different readers.
Leave a comment about what kind of deodorant you use and why you want to try dove and I will pick 24 readers to get these coupons to.

Yesterday I had to take Justice to the doctor because he has the chicken pox, which I feel horrible for him. Not much that I can do for it other than just take care of him and comfort him. The doctor says that he needs to stay home for 7/10 days. Today he woke up with more bumps all over him. I need to run to the grocery store and get some calamine lotion, but I do not want to take him but it looks like I might have to do it any way since I am not sure if I am going to. I am bummed because of mothers day we are going to have to stay home and do nothing since I do not want to take him anywhere and get a bunch of other kids sick.

This is my son modeling my Cookie Lee Jewerly for me. He is so cute and this is something that he loves to do.

Me and Justice stayed home today, we had to wait for Fedex to show up with my new blackberry phone from Verizon and I already love it and am trying to figure everything out on it. Not an easy job but it is sure fun. We played inside all day since it was grosse outside today and I did not want to have to go outside and play in the wind and rain. We had a lot of fun though, well not when he decided to bite me so hard that I started to cry so he got a swat on the hinny and then had to sit on the couch until I told him to get down. He then told me sorry gave me a hug and kiss then kissed my owwie and then pulled him pants down and asked me to kiss his owwie where he had gotten a swat. It was cute and we had no other biting problems other than that today. I love the days when I get to stay home with my little man and play. We played with everything today and maybe somethings that we should not have, well him at least like dumping hot cocoa into the burner of the stove and that was a mess to clean up, oh well.
We had a wonderful day together and I am looking forward to tomorrow with him

OK so my little man decided to paint the dining room for me last Friday before I had a lot of people over for Aaron's party so I thought that I would share the pictures now that I got them off my camera. Isn't he just so cute!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the conversation that we had to I just asked him if he was supposed to paint on paper "yeah" is this paper"yeah' oh i must be an idiot then "yeah" it was funny but what a mess

This weekend was a long one. I had a show on Friday night, one on saturday (justice was with daddy all day and had a blast). They went to grandma and grandpa's house for grandpa's birthday party and he had so much fun with everyone. Then on Sunday me and justice went up to bellingham and made our rounds. It was fun and justice got to play with all the other kids and then he got to play with my little sister at my dad's house when we went there. It was a wonderful but long weekend.
Yesterday justice got sick in my car again, then on me and then on my glider chair. That was a fun mess to clean up. He is not sick I think when he got a hold of the destine creamy hinny cream, that he might have ate some. The poison control said that the only thing that it would do to him is make him sick, so I think that is what happened. Then when he got up from nap he wanted french fries I took him to dairy queen. Then off to home and waited for Aaron to get home so that I could head down south for cookie lee. I had a wonderful day and a very good weekend.

Today Justice will be going to aaron's parents house so that I can go and do my jewerly show in Smokey Point. He will have fun there playing while I am making some money. Other than that we have done some running around and getting some things done that needed to be done.
Last night we lost our power for about 3 hours it sucked and I felt kinda like I was Amish. I had made dinner for some friends for movie night. So we ate then it got dark so I lite candles and waited for the power to come back on. Justice did not understand that when the power is out we do not get to watch TV before bed so he kept going up to the TV pushing the button and telling me it was broke, yes hunny it is broke. Then he would tell me to get batteries he just did not understand that batteries was not going to make the TV work, but it sure was cute listening to him and watching him. We all got a kick out of him, then it was off to bed which he did not like since he has slept with music in his bedroom since he was born and it is always on, but I did not have batteries to put in his CD player to make it work so he had to go to bed in silence then when the power came back on I went in and tucked him in and turned on his music for him. He also sleeps with a night light and that did not work either so it was really dark in there. I felt bad but my little man needs his sleep too, so I was torn but he was a big boy and did a good job. Slept through the night and got up around 7 this mornign. He is now down for his nap and I am thinking that I am going to have to go and wake him up since we need to get going down south so I can drop him off and head to my show. Wish me luck and I hope I make some good money today and at my show tomorrow, we could really use it right now.

On another note this year I am excited for mother's day because Justice is getting old enough that we can do something for it. I think I would love to go to the park or something to spend time with my son and I would love something from his heart to his mommy for mother's day.

These are some pictures of Justice and his mommy and daddy. I love these pictures. I need to take some more recent ones though. These are the days to cherish.

Today I have ran to the bank, taken a shower, got Justice his bath, feed breakfast, tried to get him to eat lunch, ran to another bank, then back to another bank, then to get coffee, to aaron's work to drop off coffee, stopped by a house that I would love to sell our house for and buy, got pot roast on for our Thursday night pot roast and movie night, started to clean the house, taken care of some of the animals, got the mail, did my Avon order, made my phone calls that needed to be made, got the schwans we needed from our driver, let Justice play outside for a little while (well in my truck because he loves to pretend that he is driving) and it is only noon.
Now I need to fold the pile of laundry that has taken over my bed and finish cleaning the house, make Justice eat lunch, work on some leads for cookie lee. Get things ready for my party tomorrow and on saturday. I need to get gas in my truck make sure dinner is done for dinner time and call some employees to get their weekly reports.
Other than that not much to do today and have not done that much. Justice is having a good day and for the second time this week he has slept until 8 o'clock in the morning. Wow am I lucky or what this has never happened. His two year old molars are finally coming in poor little man.

Yesterday we stayed home most if not all of the day other than going for a walk and doing things like that. I just was not in the mood to do anything outside of my house and the day before we stayed home the whole day because I had a migraine and just layed around and watched Justice play most of the day.

Today is a wonderful day and I love the time that I get to spend with my son. I am so glad and thankful that I get to be a stay at home/ Work at home mom, there is nothing in this world that I would change that for. It means everything to me that I have been around for my son and to watch him grow up and not miss a minuet of his life because they grow up so fast and before you know it he will be in school, then in college, then married and then children of his own.

Ok so now it is 3:20 and I have got the laundry done folded, put away, dinner is cooking and needs no tending to as it is in the crock pot, my emails done, avon order done, house cleaned, table washed, justice feed now it is almost dinner time, dishes done, and many other things done. Wow I feel like wonder women today as much as I have gotten done, oh yeah all the animals are taken care of and Justice is being my little helper today. It is so nice to be at home with my little man.

Juicy Juice selected me to do a house party. They sent me the supplies and the juice. The prizes the kids got were so wonderful and kids really liked them. The juice is awesome. They have immunity juice and brain development juice, it takes good and my son loves it. Which really impresses me since he is very picky. The juice has dha in it and other good things in it. So they are drinking something healthy without knowing it. I would recommend juicy juice to any parent that asks. I do not really like juice but this is something that I would drink too.

This is what I get for leaving brownies on the counter.

Today was one of those days I did not want to end. Me and Justice got up and got ready for the day and waited for poppy (my dad) to get here then off to get flower bulbs and lots of them. I know someone so I get thousands of dollars worth for free. It was fun and my dad was overwhelmed picking out what he wanted. Normally I just take them to him but this year I took him a long for the fun. He had fun and was not sure what to do at first. Justice rode in his stroller for a while then I let him loose and he had fun looking at all the flower bulbs and just running around. We then came home for nap time.
I worked outside for a while. Then I had to go threw the bulbs that I had gotten a separate them out for everyone I got them for.
Then we played outside all day. It was beautiful outside and warm, I did not want to come in but Justice was getting tired and grumpy. We cuddled on the couch and watched Sponged Bob and Mighty B before Justice headed off to bed.
I got a hot bath in tonight which felt so wonderful, now I think I might go to bed since I did not get any sleep last night. Hopefully tomorrow will be just as nice so we can outside some more

Friday night I threw Aaron and BBQ party for his birthday. We had a lot of fun with drinks, food fire and wonderful friends. Justice was up for a little while of it then I got him off to bed and then we all hung out outside. It was fun and it was nice to see friends we had not seen in a while and it was so much fun but we were up until 2 in the morning in the driveway

Saturday we ended up going to different places. Aaron had to go and help his brother move from his apartment to his house that they are renting. I had to go to my moms for my step dad and little brothers birthday party. Justice has so much fun and my grandparents were in town that we do not get to see as much as I would like. So it was so nice to spend time with them. Grandpa has also made books for all of the kids. Justice got mickey mouse and it is a Disney book that grandpa put his own special touch to. The book is designed that he needs to go threw the book and find a fish on each page, it is so cute. I love going to my moms because justice is able to play with kids his own age and run from inside to outside with out me having to follow him around since they go out on the porch and it is gated off so that they can not get off the porch.

Sunday we went to the street fair with my little sister and my step mom. It was so much fun. Justice has a lot fun looking at all the things. Grandma also ordered a puzzle for justice that is his name. We should have it in a couple of weeks and it is so cute. I can not wait to get it here. Justice got an ice cream cone today and an elephant. Then we walked home and played outside for a long time. Today has been beautiful and it was sure nice to spend time with my step mom and little sister, tomorrow I get to spend time with my dad he will be here bright and early in the morning.

Other than that this weekend has been wonderful and I loved every minuet of it.

I just found out that my truck in low on coolant and the brake light is burned out. I have a really nice Chevy silverado that is lowered on 20 inch rims and tires. I love my truck other than the the minor problems today, so when justice wakes up from his nap we will be going to see daddy at work and get those problems taken care of since my husband is the service writer for an automotive shop in burlington. His boss is really cool and my hubby likes what he does and that is what matters. Just hope that I do not get pulled over on the way to Aaron's work and get a ticket for a brake light being out. That would just be my luck though.

Ok so aaron fixed my trucks problems and no ticket or being pulled over on the way that made my day



On another note justice has been a stinker throwing his dinner on the floor, throwing a light bulb across the house, dumping his bubbles everywhere to be spiteful. He was just a handful today then he ran into a pole going into the house not looking where he was running. My son must take after me. Accident prone. Other than all of that we had a good day together. Like most. Played, ran around, cuddled, laundry, dishes, dinner and made macaroni salad for aaron's party that we are having tomorrow night. Oh yeah we went to the casino, (smokes), riverside dist (peppermint, white choc), costco, delivered avon books, daddies work, took miss hazel her mail which justice loves to do, and then home to play some more

Is a wonderful blog that I have been following. Jacqueline Renner does some wonderful giveaways on her site. This time I won a $50.00 gift certificate to Photofiddle. I was able to have one of justice's pictures turned into an oil painting, I can not wait to get it.

Today just has not been a good day all around. I played outside with justice, did 5 loads of laundry, emptied the dishwasher, and then reloaded it, put the clothes away, cleaned the house, painted with justice, gave him two baths today, made some deliveries, ran out to meet a girl that wants to sign up with cookie lee, got dinner, blogged, then justice cut his head open and has been very grumpy all day. Oh yeah I worked in the backyard scooping dog poop now I need to go do it in the front yard. I need to go shopping to get the things I need for Friday night since we are having a big party for my hubbies 37th birthday. Other than that I have been doing things with justice like taking the little puppy for a walk, playing outside, feeding and wiping snooty noses, comforting tears away, cuddling, running to the bank. Now I now why I am so tired and ready for bed at 7:19. Justice's head is alright he is going to have a scar but it is not bad enough that he had to go the doctor.

The story there is I was using the rest room and little man wanted to be held. Well that is hard to do, so he got mad and ran out into the living room throwing a fit and banged on the TV and the candler holders fell and hit him in the head. I felt horrible. I cuddled with him then looked at it. Maybe a centimeter long and not very deep. It really did not bleed so I took him into the bathroom put some hydrogen peroxide on it then neosorine. I then made many calls to see if I should take him to the doctor and decided that it was just a flesh wound and not to.

Then daddy got home from work, justice was excited to see him. I left to run another errand and justice stayed home to play with daddy. We then ate dinner, got justice off to bed.

Today justice was feeling a little better, so after our shower we left and did some avon deliveries and ran and saw daddy at work. He was so happy to get out of the house and so was I. We also played outside today for a while and just had fun. We layed around the house some today but nothing like we had done the days before. He still sounds congested and coughs and has a runny nose but that is nothing compared to what he has been like. Justice also called my step dad don and told him birthday which was so cute since it was don's birthday today. Happy birthday pappa. Other than that we did not do that much it was a nice day where we could get out of the house for a while and make some money. I do not like being cooped up for that many days on end. I was ready to go and play in the freeway just for some entertainment in my life since I had not had any for several days. I could not handle looking at the walls of my house for one more minuete. It was driving me nuts and it was driving Justice nuts too because he was going stir cray having to stay in the house, he would ask "momma bye bye" and I would have to tell him no because he was sick and that just plain sucked since I knew that he wanted to get out of the house but I did not want to haul our sick little boy out unless I really had to.

Aaron was a trooper this whole time of justice being sick. He stayed home with us on easter and cuddled and played with justice. On monday he had to go back to work but he talked to justice on the phone something that justice loves to do and then he came home and cuddled with justice before bed. Then when I carried Justice to bed like every night aaron was chasing him down the hall. It is something that started a while ago in my house and makes it hard to get Justice to bed when daddy is not here because he wants daddy to chase him, but when I tell him daddy is not home then it is alright I guess.

Just another day in paradise with my family and some quality play time with my little man. Just the way that I love life.

This year for Easter me, Aaron and justice stayed home because justice is really sick. He just layed around the house all day. Justice did get his Easter basket and he was excited about the things that he had gotten. It was a relaxing day of snot and fevers and vicks baby rub.

Today I had a show to do so we headed down south so that justice could go to the grandparents while I went and did my show. On the way there well actually I was almost there he got sick in my car several times. He covered himself, car seat, floor, and me, needless to say we are home, he is sleeping and I had to clean up the gross mess. I feel so bad for him and I rescheduled my party for another day. I hope my little man feels better soon. I really do not like it when he is sick because I am not sure how to make him feel better and it is no fun when you are so little and your tummy is sick.
Ok so as the day went along justice got worse and I took him to the doctor where he got sick in my car again and then in the parking lot. He has the flu and is not getting any better. They told me that if I can not get him to drink tonight I will need to take him back in the morning and put him on IV because he is getting dehydrated. I did bu Tylenol since his temp has been between 103.5 - 102.6 and staying. Poor little guy. We got home and tried to give him some tylenol and he got sick again all over him the blanket and the couch this time. I feel so bad for him. I waited till aaron got home and he gave him so more tylenol and he kept it down. He did want to eat something so I gave him some chicken fries since that is whats he wanted. I hope he keeps it down. He still has not drank anything and I am getting worried. I do not want to have to have him go on an IV. I put him to bed with a cup of pedialight and I hope he will drink it. Pray for him to drink and feel better. I wish that he did not have to be sick to cuddle all day, but I got to hold my baby all day and that was wonderful just crappy reasons why. The doctor did tell me that we needed to stay home all weekend so me and justice will be home all weekend. We will spend easter together and try to get him healthy again.

There is a birthday party going on at another blog with some wonderful prizes head over there to check it out. It is at http://www.sevendogsandababy.com/. It is another wonderful blog site.

Tonight after justice got ready and went to bed. I have been working. I am busy when he is sleeping since it is hard to get things done while he is awake. He likes to help so I do not always get as much done as I had hoped so I work during nap time and then when he is in bed for the night. I try to crack out as much as I can so there is not as much left over for the next day. I wear many hats and try to do as much as I can to make money for our family. It might not always work the way that I want but I do the best that I can.
This afternoon justice wanted to go in the backyard again and play where he can see the big dogs. He is starting to get more daring by going right up to the fence and talking to them, but he still is scared of all dogs other than puppy, which is his dog that lives in the house with us. Puppy was named by justice and is a cheweenie. He is so cute and such a wonderful dog to justice. They love each other and the puppy goes almost everywhere with us. This picture is not the best but it is justice and the puppy a while ago when we first got the puppy.

I am going to get ready to go to bed since Justice gets up early. Lately he has been getting up around 7:30 in the morning and it sure has been nice to sleep in an extra hour, maybe someday I can sleep till 8 or maybe even 9, just one day but I am not holding my breath on that.

Today is one of those days that I just want to lay around the house. Me and justice have not done much of anything today and I am going to keep it that way. I am tired and I just feel drained. I am not so sure why but I am. I do have a party this week so I need to get things ready for that and for justice to go to the grandparents and my avon order is due tonight but I think I will worry about all of that later.
Yesterday me and justice played outside all day. He was playing with the water facet and a bucket and he had so much fun. I do not mind letting him play in the water. We played in the back yard since that is where he wanted to be, we normally do not play back there because the big dogs bark the whole time, but the actually stopped barking after a while. Justice and puppy ran around the yard and played in the water. I just sat in the grass and watched him and really enjoyed myself. I love those moments in time where you can just sit and watch your child play.
When Aaron got home from work last night, justice did his normal rockie with me then cuddle with daddy and just went back and forth. Then it was off to bed, not a peep out of my little man. It was amazing. He must have been whiped because one of us always has to go in there at least once if not multiple times.

I am redoing my page and I have lost somethings I am going to try to get everything back up tonight. Sorry about it and I will work had on this.

I never thought that blogging would be something that I would like, but I have falling in love with it. Today is my 102 post and I wish I had something to review and giveaway for all of my wonderful friends that I have made, but I do not, so I just wanted to say thank you for reading about my life.

As far as my step moms appointment that said that everything is OK and they want to recheck her in 3 months They said that the cyst in her brain was normal and everyone has one but hers is just a little bigger than everyone else's. I am not so sure what all this means and why she feels the way that she does but as far as this news goes it is good news in my book. I was so relieved when they showed up at my house and told me that news.
Justice had a good day playing with antie jaryn and me. He helped washed my car and he got antie jaryn all wet and himself too, but it was really warm out today so it was fun. We also played in the house and blew bubbles outside. He was a really good boy and had a lot of fun with his antie. He was really wexcited when they got here to get antie because he loves his grandma and poppie

This weekend was a really busy one. Friday we had our first BBQ and fire of 2009. It was fun but it sure got cold out around 11:00. I was ready to come in and get under my heated blanket and get warm. I think we came in the house around 11:30 and it was off to bed for me.
Saturday I had the annual garage sale to do for cookie lee and it was nothing like it was in the past. Not very many people and things just did not sell like they should have. I also did not very many people interested in joining my team which sucks because I would really like to promote this month. Justice got to stay home with daddy all day. They did walk down and see me once during the day which sure was nice. Other than that I am not too sure what the two of them did all day.
Sunday was Aaron's 37 birthday so we went to my grandma's, then to my mom and then down to his parents for his birthday. It was a good but busy day.
Today I am at home with my little man, waiting for my sister to get here since my step mom has be appointment today and I said I would take jaryn while they went, so here we sit and wait to find out what is going to happen to sandy. I am scared

I was nominated by Shari over at A psych mommy, I just love her blog and her son Mr. Bean is just too cute.

A LITTLE OF THIS, A LITTLE OF THAT

Tonight I started to paint our master bedroom, since my son had colored the walls with a green sharpie and my head board and my computer desk. Oh yeah and a blanket that is on our bed that my husband's grandma made him when he was little. Oopps. I needed to paint my room any way as I have lived here for 6 years and I have painted the whole house but our room. Thank you Justice for the extra push today to get it done. I have half the room done and I will do the other half over the next few days as there is so much furniture in our room that we have to move it and I can only do a little bit at a time then wait for it to dry then move the furniture back and so on. Tonight I got the wall that bed is on and the window, well half of that wall, the whole wall where our closet is at and half of the wall where our door is at. I think when I finish our room I will do our bathroom because that really needs to be done too. I am miss home improvements tonight. I also need to get some new blinds for our room and a valence, I might go look tomorrow for that.
Justice was a stinker today, he colored on the wall and all over my room, ran out the door and into the middle of the street so he got a swat for that one as I was running after him and yelling and he would not stop. He threw fits today just because, head butted me and split the inside of my lip open and it sure hurts. This is my son I love him and would not trade him for anything in the world and I am truely thankful for him, but I wish sometimes he would listen and be a little nicer to me. He did cuddle with me today a few times. Today was an eventful day and I got a lot done. I am proud of myself.
I am really worried right now as my step mom goes to the hospital on monday to find out what they are going to do about her brain tumor. I hope that this is something that they can fix and not have any side effects because I love her and do not want to see anything bad happen.
I am looking forward to sunday my hubby turns 37 boy is he getting old. I will get to see my neice for the first time since I have been sick since she was born. We will also be going to my mom's for lunch and so that I can get some work done, then off to aaron's parents for dinner for his birthday. It should be a good day that we get to spend together the whole day which does not happen that often anymore. Justice will like it because he likes when daddy goes places with us.
Tomorrow me and justice will find something fun to do maybe if it is nice I will take him to the park, just no coloring on the walls.

Yesterday I was sick all day again and the night before I slept on the bathroom floor because I felt so terrible. I wish that this sickness would leave my house and no come back, I know that little man is going to get it soon since I seem to not be able to get over it.
Today justice woke up and yelled momma for sometime before I decided to get out of bed. We made some deliveries today but other than that not much of anything. I really want to have another lazy day but I know that is not possible I have too many things to get done. I need to catch up on house work, laundry, justice already got his bath, already delivered avon books, but still a lot to do and I do not want to do any of it.

Happy anniversary mom and don. 14 down and many more to go. We love you guys lots.

Today was just a fun day for me and justice. We made deliveries, hung around the house and played all day. I love the days when we just play and hang out together. It is so much fun and I do not get to do it as much as I would like. With me being sick all week I did not feel like playing at all so today I was starting to feel way better so I decided that it was time to play with my little man some.
Last night I actually got justice on tape singing row row row your boat with his daddy, it is so cute and I am going to try to upload it so that everyone can see how cute it is. Not sure where he got this from but when he sings it he holds his hands above his head with his fingers folded together and signs that way and sways back and forth. I can not tell you how cute it is.
We also made a trip down south to meet uncle joel since he had collected some money for me for some jewerly that he had sold. We hung out at grandma and pappa's for a little while then it was off to home again so we could eat dinner and start relaxing for bed time, but the relaxing part never happened as little man has just been hyper all day long, still right now he is. He is in bed supposed to be going to sleep but that is not working out so well. He is playing and calling for me every couple of mins. This has became his new bed time thing I believe. Well last night he went to bed no problem but not the night before or tonight. But it has been nice being able to sleep in until 7 which i have not gotten to do in a couple of years.
I have not gotten any bad news about anyone today which is nice and I am just waiting until monday to find out what is going to happen to my step mom. Then we will no more after that appointment to see what the future will hold.
Tomorrow is my mom and step dad's anniversary, I know weird day to get married on but they thought it would be funny as they both have been married before. I am really not sure how many years this is but I think it is like 12 or something like that. They have been together a lot longer than that but it took them a while to get married, but hay it does not matter. As long as they are happy is all that matters to me

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.

Tonight Justice was a stinker when it came to bed time. He did everything that he could to keep me coming in his room and not to go a sleep. He dropped all his binkies on the floor, wanted kisses, wanted the blankie put back on him, threw everything out of his crib what ever that little boy could think of he did. He was so cute about it too, which I normally would not say because after an hour and a half normally I would be a little irrated but not tonight, I just sat at my computer and kept getting up to this really cute little boy yelling for me. I must be in a good mood tonight or something. I know that this will only be something that he will do for a while and I already went in and tucked him in and he is now fast asleep.

I have been sick since Thursday night. I feel miserable and do not want to do anything. I have though done my shows and taken care of justice, my mommy duties.
Alright so this week has pretty much been crappy with a little happiness. My step mom has been diagnosed with a major brain tumor that is really big, she will have to go to Swedish medical on the 6th to see what they are going to do as far as surgery, my husbands grandpa had a stroke, I have been sick and then my sister had a baby girl yesterday morning. Katelynn was born at 7:55 in the morning. This is my sisters third and last child. As far as my step mom we know nothing yet other than it is big and really deep in the center of her brain. That is all I know. It sucks and I wish there was something that I could do for her.
So on friday Justice got to go to my dad and step moms for the day. They took him to the park, the touch tank and just spent the day with him. He had so much fun and he was not ready to come home. I was so happy that they got to spend the day together especially with this bad news. They played outside the whole day and justice could not care that I was there when I came to get him.
Today is sunday and I am staying home and doing a whole lot of nothing. Justice is just hanging out at home with me and aaron and adina today.

Today is another day so far like any other. I ran some errands, justice is down for his nap then we will run a few more errands. other than that we are not up to much. I have to get my stuff ready and Justice's stuff ready since I have another Cookie Lee show tomorrow and the rest of the week, so I need to spend sometime on that. I am not sure what else might come our way today but hopefully not much as I would like to stay home and do nothing since it is so yucky outside. I am sure though Justice will keep me busy and entertained all day like he does. He is so cute and into so many different things now. He loves to color, build with blocks, play with play dough, play in his sand box and he really loves to blow bubbles.

What I am thankful for

Today I am having one of those days. Life is just not where I want it to be. I am not where I want to be with God, I am not making as much money as I would like, no enough people are booking parties with my new company, my house is not clean by any means, I just want everything to be where I want it to be and today is not the day that I want to mess with it all. I think that it is time that I need to do something for myself for a change but I am not sure what I need to do to get out of this funk?
Ok so on another note, Justice went with me to church yesterday he has so much fun in his class, he colored me a picture, and sang. He goes into class with one of my foster sisters and they love to play together. We also then went to my grandma's to see how she was doing and to take her pictures of justice, then off to nana and poppa's house like every sunday. I had a nice time visting with my family and getting some work done and justice played all day and would not take a nap. Oh well he was a good boy and one day with out a nap is not going to kill him or me. Then we came home and played around, well I wanted to do was sleep since I could not fall asleep until two in the morning, then got up at 6.
today I am just hanging out at home, I do not want to go anywhere so I am not. I am going to stay home and work and play with my son. I love playing with him and he likes it too. Other than that I might continue cleaning house, doing dishes, laundry and things like that since it needs to be done but we will see.

I won another prize through another wonderful blog. This was a CD of Mindy Gledhill.
This free giveaway came from www.giveawaytoday.blogspot.com which is a wonderful blog to go to too. I love these things

today I did a fundraiser for the cancer society with my cookielee jewerly. It went alright. I would like to raise some more money for this so if you would like to go to www.cookielee.biz/sharicooley and like what you see you can purchase it through me so call or leave me a comment and I will get it for you and mail it then I will donate 25% to the cancer society. 360-708-4353
Justice went to grandma and grandpa's today while I was doing my fundraiser. He had a lot of fun and was an excellent little boy. I am so proud of him and he did not care at all when I was leaving. I guess he was tapping on the table asking for ho ho which is santa. Grandma could not figure out at first what he wanted then it made sense that the santa was on that table at christmas time that played music and danced and justice just loved it. So grandma dug it out and he played with that and was so happy.
I am beat so I think I am going to keep this short as I have some work to do and would like to go to bed.

Today Justice got to nana and poppa's because I jad to go to court to fight a ticket that I had got and did not desrve. I went into court with a really bad attitude that it would not be dropped and I would be stuck with somethig that was not right, but the judge was really cool and dropped my ticket even before I told my side of the story. Luck was in my favor I was so excited.
I went back and got justice, he was still eating dinner with the other kids when I got there so I hung out for a while and finished letting him eat, then off to home we went. We got home and cuddled for a while and got our jammies on and off to bed. He is actually asleep and that is amazing since the last few nights it has taken him a couple of hours to go to bed, but not tonight I just let him yell and off to sleep he went. Yeah

Today was one of my many shows for cookie lee. It went well and got another show from it so that is good. Justice got to go to grandma and grandpa's for the day while I went and worked. He was so cute when I left he gave me kisses and waived bye bye and that was it, no crying or anything which is good. It is getting easier to leave him which makes me happy but sad at the same time. I guess he played with his toys that I had packet for him, played with bubbles and walked around the yard looking for bunnies and birds, it sounds like he had a good time.
When I got there to pick him up he was still sleeping which was good that he got a good nap today. We then came home to leave again to make an avon delivery then home to make dinner and take a bath apon his request. So off to the bath tub, then he cuddled up on my lap soaking wet like always and cuddled for about an hour. I love those times to just hold my little boy. Then off to play and wait for daddy to get home.
Now he is in bed and hopefully going to get a good night sleep since we have a long day again tomorrow. He will be going to Nana and Poppa's will I go to court to fight a ticket that I really should have never gotten, but that is another story on its own. Then friday back down to grandma and grandpa's so I can do another cookie lee show, that one is also a fundraiser for the american cancer society. I would love to do some more of these since they are for such a good cause and many people in my family are survivors of cancer/
Oh yeah we found out on monday that my mom is 100% cancer free this is wonderful news since the type of cancer she had was never subpost to go away.
Ok now I need to go and work on orgainizing my jewerly since it was mess from today.

This weekend I had the fashion show that I was in, went to my moms house to work. I did not have time to sit down and relax at all and this week I have no time to relax either because I have so many shows going on and with avon. Justice loves it though because he is still spending time with me and he gets to go and play with the grandparents while I am at my shows. Right now he is down for his nap and I am working.

Toay has started out pretty normal other than I took down the baby gate to keep Justice out of Adina's room. I only had it up when he first started to crawl and now it is time for it to come down. Adina is not happy about this because now Justice can go in there when ever he wants but it had to come down. It drives me nuts and she never cleans under it so it gets grosse. I decided that it was time since it was something that I have wanted to do for a long time.
I am really busy this next week and the following and will be leaving Justice with family so that I can go do my parties for my new company. I am scared but I know he will be fine, it is just that I do not leave him anywhere that often and Tuesday, Wednesday next week he will have to go somewhere and saturday he will stay home with daddy since I am in a fashion show. Then the next week he will be with someone Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and part of saturday. That is a lot of days but at least he is not in daycare.
Last night our friend Donny came over for dinner, we had a nice time visting and having dinner that him and I cooked. Today me and Justice are just going to stay home as I have a lot of work to do and I would really like to deep clean my house, if at all possible. I am not sure how much of that I will accomplish with little man running around the house but we will see what I can get done. I am also taking care of my neighbors dogs, cats and fish while she is out of town. I will also get her mail and take her garbage out for her since she will be gone almost a week. I also take the little old lady down the road from me her mail everyday so I would say that I am pretty busy right now, but I do not mind, it is better than being bored all day long.
Our sink broke yesterday and that was not fun since I could not use the kitchen sink all day long, you never know how much you use something until you can not any more. Aaron got that fixed when he got home from work yesterday. Thank goodness because I was going nuts not being able to take care of the dishes or anything like that.
Well I need to go and fold the 4 loads of laundry on my bed and put in my avon order before it gets to late.

Today was Justice's 2nd birthday party. It went wonderful and I am so thankful for everyone that could come. Justice had so much fun and loved all the gifts he got. He got a scooter today and was riding it in the restaurant where we had his party, needless to say he fell now has a bump on his head that is black and blue. That is my fault for letting him ride it but he is ok so nothing to stew over.
It was so wonderful to have friends and family there to celebrate Justice's special day and I had a lot of fun too. I love big parties where Aaron likes small ones, well since last year I could not do a big party since Justice had the flu I did one this year, not sure if I will do a big one again next year. I will decide that closer to his birthday then.
We got home from his party and he played out side for a while, then came in and played, then took a bath after he tore his diaper off and was running around naked because he wanted a bath. I then got him ready for bed and put him down, for one hour he came up with every excuses not to go to sleep, so he got up and ate some pizza. I think I finally got him to sleep around 7:45. I am totally wiped out now and I think that it is about time to go to bed. I have already got all his presents put away and found homes for everything even the stuff that goes outside.
It was a wonderful day today and I am very thankful for everything and everyone today

Ok so justice is two today so I thought I would put some pictures on here of him from the past two years He is getting so big. Happy birthday momma's little man. I love you more than words can express, you make my life complete and I cherish each and every moment with you. You are growing so fast and turning into such a wonderful little man, so much energy and so much love for everyone. I learn so much from you everyday and love holding and kissing you. You went from momma's tiny little baby to momma's big boy in no time at all. I can not wait to continue watching you grow and help and guide you along the way.
Happy birthday my little man. I love you!

Justice will be two tomorrow. Time sure flyes. I took him today to get his two year old pictures taken and he was so good and they turned out so cute. I can not wait to get them in my hands to give out to everyone. We also did the last of his birthday shopping. Yeah I am done. Today we are just hanging around home now that I got all of that done, we are going to try to make the last of our deliveries for avon, but other than that not a lot of anything. I need to wrap his and austins presents but that can wait until later.
My little man is growing up so fast and right in front of my eyes. I can not believe how big he has gotten and how smart he is. It seems like yesterday I was just bringing him home from the hospital where I could shower with out company, I could get things done around the house and not worry about them getting destroyed the very next second. Oh well it is all part of life and I love every minuet of it

Today is my typical Thursday. Damian is here for the day and Justice and him sometimes are more than I can handle but today they both are being really good which is nice. I am also taking Justice in this afternoon to get his two year old pictures done. I am so excited for that. I know not that big of a deal but it is for me. I got most of Justice's birthday presents bought last night so that made me happy and since I can not find a sand table for him, Aaron is going to build one before Sunday.
We are having a big party for him since I could not do it in his first birthday because he had the flue so I had to cancel his party then, not this year I am making up for last year and some. It should be fund the only thing is that I can not do it on his actual birthday since my nephew was born that day too and my sister had already said that she did not want to do a joint party so I have to do Justice's the day after but that is alright. I do not mind. This week is full of birthdays, 4th was my mom and brother in laws, 7 th is Austin and Justice's, 11th is my brother and the 13th in my cousins son and I am sure I might have missed a few but that means that we will being going to a lot birthday parties this weekend and next week.

I took justice to the doctor today to get his well child check thinking that he would have to have shots. Much to my amazement he is done with shots until he goes into kindergarten thank you. He got weighed 38 pounds and measured at 3 feet 1 inch (37 inches). My little boy is not so little any more. We also got some cream for his dry skin. They also looked at his rash that he has had for a couple of weeks now and found out that it is some viral rash that he could have up to 24 months. There is no real treatment and it will just eventually go away on its own. Other than that he is healthy and doing good. I love my doctor and Justice was a perfect little boy today. He did not run through the doctors office and held my hand like he is being taught to. He let the doctor look in his ears, eyes mouth and listen to his heart beat. I could not believe that he sat so still and let her check everything out and did not need momma at all. The only thing is though that the doctor says that I need to take away his Binky really soon which I have wanted to do anyway. So that is just another push to do so. She wants him to stay on tums everyday since he still will not drink milk and take his fluoride. Yeah clean bill of health and if all is well he does not need to be seen for another year. I need to get him into the dentist again just to have them look at his teeth and I need to change his tooth paste to a fluoride one the doctor says but that will come.

Tomorrow we will be going to get Justice's two year old pictures taken. I am so excited to get them done and home to compare with the last set that we did at one. I know he has grown up and the baby is gone altogether and now he looks like a little boy. It makes me sad and happy all at the same time. Time just goes by too fast.

Other than that Justice is down for his nap and I am going to work on some things around the house and try to figure out what I would like to get little man for his birthday. I have some ideas but not many so we will see what happens.

Today has been a wonderful day so far. Got lots of deliveries done and things around the house done. I am now working on reference checks, calling people whom came to my last party and thanking them for coming and trying to get some more parties on the books. I would love to have some sort of party going on every week. It might not happen right away but that is my goal. I am also trying to think of what to get little man for his 2nd birthday this weekend. I can not believe that he is already two, where has the time gone? As you get older I have noticed that time goes by a lot faster. It saddens me that he is no longer a baby, but I have so much fun with him every day that I love him being a big boy too. I just wish that I had a few more months with him as a tiny baby, but who knows maybe we will have another one someday, well hopefully sooner than later, but we will see what happens.
Justice has learned how to count, one, two, three then either six or one again but that is good for a two year old I think, He also says welcome instead of thank you, but at least he is using his manners, which is wonderful. Justice is growing up so fast that I am not really sure where all the time has gone, but it is nice to see what a nice and helpful boy he is becoming. Tomorrow morning we have his two year old check up and also they are going to look at his arm that keeps getting red bumps then they go away then they come back so I just want them to check them out. Other than that I can not wait to see how tall he is and how much he weighs. It should be fun.

This weekend was busy like always. Saturday we went to the roller skating rink for my little sisters birthday party and Justice did so good skating and it was so much fun. We then got home saturday night and hung around the house, Sunday me and Justice headed to bellingham like every Sunday and went to church and made our rounds. We then found out that five mins. after we left the skating rink my sister had fallen and broke her arm. I feel so bad for her.
Today was the same as everyday. Had to go to an appointment, delivered avon and worked around the house. Tomorrow will be just as busy if not worse.
