Guess What!!!

I'm so close to being my normal old blogging self!  Next week, life should finally go back to normal.  My new laptop came today!  Finally! I'm such a happy lady. The reason I'm putting off everything going back to normal until next week is because we are in the process of moving. 

I'm so excited about this move.  The new house is so wonderful for our family and I think the kids are super stoked for this move as well.  We've spent a lot of time at the new house over the past few days and they've had a really good time playing there.  It helps that their bedroom is the biggest room in the house.  The best part is that this is hopefully the last house we ever have to rent.  I'm praying that in the next couple of years we can finally buy a house. 

In other news, Ben and Sydney are adjusting super well to their new sister, Rylie.  They just want to love her up all the time.  We haven't had any problems with jealousy or even really any acting out.  We've had a little bit of trouble with Sydney and some temper problems, but those have been going on since before Rylie's birth and are finally starting to get a little better.  I don't mind the screaming and crying or even the throwing themselves on the ground, but I don't like the hitting, kicking, scratching, pinching and biting we've been dealing with.  I'm finally starting to see light at the end of this tunnel and I honestly think it's an age/phase thing.

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

We put up our outside decorations last night for fall and Halloween. It's looks so cute out there. Right now I am:::: Sitting at the counter trying to quickly type up this post and eat my br...

Petty

This evening our sweet little Petty went to Kitty Heaven.  The cancer had spread to her brain, causing her to have odd behaviors.  The tumor in her mouth, or the side of her face, had pulled down her ear canal on that side and caused her eye to twitch, which the vet said caused constant vertigo.  The cancer had also spread to her intestines causing her to loose control of her bowels and bladder and she was bleeding internally.  While she didn't appear to be suffering, there is no way that she wasn't.  We sadly had to have her put down. Yes, I'm meowing at her in the video.  Sometimes she would answer when you would do that, but she would always come to you. She was such a cute little love bug.  I named her Perpetua, from the Bridget Jones movies, and later we shortened it to Petty, just because we are a family of nicknames.  I remember when we first got her and she was so tiny.  She looked like a lemur and she was all black with a cou...
