It's my 25th birthday and here's how it went.
Got up late, but got Kenzie up and half way ready while I jumped in the shower. Took a little too long and made us later. Got Howard up and ran out of the house only to discover that Kenzie forgot her breakfast on the counter. Had to go back and get breakfast, oh and had a half way sleeping toddler whining in her car seat.
Dropped Kenzie off and did Maddie and mine's normal routine until the phone rang.
One right after the other
My mom
My sister
My husband
My grandmother
My husband
Directly after that last one, Maddie fell and hit her face on the coffee table, busting her lip. She didn't cry at first, until she came up to me and spit blood out everywhere. Thank God Kenzie was lazy and left her PJ's on the floor, because that was handy to mop up the half a cup of blood that came pouring out of Maddie's mouth. Finally the bleeding subsided and so did the tears.
I thought she busted the inside of her lip, but realized later that she bit her tongue. She now has 2 tooth shaped holes in the middle of her tongue and a black and blue bruise on the underside with some tearing on the vain that holds her tongue. No wonder we had so much blood.
Nap time came around, and she only slept 30 minutes because she couldn't suck on her pacifier. Slight problem for a baby.
So cranky and hurt, I put her in the car to get her sister and that's when the screams started. She didn't stop for over an hour. Finally we made it to my parents house and they were able to cuddle her and calm her. She just wanted to be held, and when I'm driving that's not really an option.
I left my parents only to be ambushed on the phone by my mother in law who spent 30 minutes bitching about her housing situation. When I was supposed to be going home and getting cute. Finally I got off the phone and my husband came home and gave me the sweetest card EVER which I will dictate tomorrow (it's almost midnight, and I'm sitting in my pitch black living room on the laptop). We left and went to see 'Yes Man' at the discount theater. We are HUGE fans of Jim Carey and totally forgot this was still in theaters. That movie was HILARIOUS! Loved it! Anyway, we did that and then Howard wanted to take me somewhere for dinner. Guess where I chose? Chick-fil-a. Yeah. I'm high maintiance, I know.
After food, we went to get the kids. I walked in to my parents and their neighbor singing 'Happy Birthday' very loudly with my kids dancing and singing at the top of their lungs! Then I got a cake with a candle on it and blew it out after I made a wish that things be better next year, lol.
Maddie then fell asleep in my arms watching Backyardagains and they are both now fast asleep in their beds. My husband is getting impatient with me, but I can't seem to pull myself out of this entry. Ok...here I go. Tomorrow will be better!
Hey I'm 25.

Movie Confusion
I find this entertaining and a little annoying.
Today is my birthday and my husband wanted to take me out to dinner. I asked him to take me to get quick bite and then to a movie instead. He agreed, yay!
Well he said he wanted to see either 'Bride Wars' or 'He's just not that into you'. Both movies I would love to see. I have issues with seeing romantic comedies in the theater. The theater experience should be for action or beautiful sites and scenes, not something I could watch in my living room and get the same affect. Now, I do have exceptions to this issue but it still bothers me because I don't go to the theater very often.
I appreciate that my husband enjoys romantic comedies. I just don't know if I want to see them, in the theater. To be honest, I want to go see 'Coraline 3D'. I really want to take Kenzie to see it, but it is my birthday and I have been told that I need to be a little selfish and go see what I want to see.
Right now it's a toss up.
He's just not that into you
Push
The Uninvited
Inkheart
The curious case of Benjamin Button
See, I told you I want to see everything.
And I would also like to see 'Bride Wars', but it's about to be out of the theaters and only has 3 random showings. I would also like to take my husband to see 'Twilight'. Since he hasn't seen it and I would love to see it again. Howard doesn't want to go see something I've already seen, and it does come out on video on March 21st (Kenzie's birthday I might add).
OH! A followup from last night- I have the temporary glasses and they're ugly as sin but I can see! And they said that they would have my new frames in 5-14 days from now. Ugh, not happy but at least I can see. They have Howard's frames and are putting the new lenses in and they will be ready tomorrow. He has temporary frames and lenses that make him look funny too. Oh and we don't have to pay a penny for new lenses for Howard and new frames and lenses for me, when originally they cost almost $200.

Can't see!
You read correctly. I cannot see. Right now typing looks like black smudge so if I make any mistakes I am leaving them for...well for effect, lol.
Saturday January 31st we went into eye masters to claim our warranty for new lenses (costs us a few bucks, but new lenses!). They said they couldn't have them done until Tuesday, and I cannot see without my glasses and Howard barely can either. So that was no good. The sweet salesman said that he could find duplicates for our glasses and send those in to have the lenses cut and then we can come in and they will put the lenses in the correct frames. GREAT, right? We thought so.
Anyway, Tuesday comes and leaves, as does a week since we put in for our new lenses. We call on Sunday and they tell us to call back on Monday. Monday comes and they're closed. Great. So today rolls around and Howard calls. Someone answers and says that they will call him back. They didn't so a few hours later, Howard called them back. Our lenses are cut and ready for us. YAY!
So, this evening before he grilled steaks for dinner he took Kenzie and my glasses to eyemasters to get our new lenses. He starts twittering that he's pissed off at waiting. An hour goes by...still nothing. Finally I text him and ask him what is going on.
He calls me within 10 minutes and tells me they have now BROKEN MY FRAMES and cut the wrong lenses for him. They said they would send me the frames that they had used to cut the correct lense size for me until a replacement frame can be ordered with no idea how long it'll take to get a replacement frame in. I told Howard that he needs to speak to a manager, now. And we will get my replacement frames and new lenses and WE WILL NOT PAY A PENNY! He brushes me off. {omg at this point I wanted to beat him with a lamp!}
So I am sitting here with a starving toddler because steak is still not grilled {I'm about to break out the indoor grill} and I cannot see a damn thing. I have NO idea what is going on with my glasses or his. I am sooooo furious at Eyemasters and for Howard for not being more assertive!
Did I mention the frames that I am going to be wearing for God knows how long are green and purple? Lovely huh?

Soulful?
Ok, so in attempt to chill my toddler out so she would be up to the idea of taking a nap I turned on playhouse disney. A mini show came on called Choo Choo Soul. Now this show has two of her favorite things in it, music and trains so yay!
Has anyone actually taken a look at Genevieve from Choo Choo Soul? Can we say drag brows?
YIKES!!!!

The things kids say-do...kids pfftt!
My daughter has been known to say some odd things. A couple of months ago she did the 'Bulls eye Jingle' comment.
Her newest is calling herself Dr. Flabbaboose. When she said this on Friday night, I cracked up. She is so hilarious! She is also calling Howard Daddy Flabbaboose. Yeah, she has issues.
Last night we were watching someTHING on TV, oh...yeah it was Princess Diaries 2 and there was a line said by Julie Andrews that said something about being a Sas (Sassy...) and there was some hitting with fans, ect. Anyway, after that segment Maddie decides to grab her popcorn popper, hit her sister with it and call her an ass. I kid you not.

Need a laugh?
Hands down, I have not laughed this hard in way too long. Yes, some of my friends make fun of me for admitting that I watched Laguna Beach, The Hills and now The City but I am hooked and these photos that surfaced today of Spedi are hilarious!
Check out the hilarity
Spencer looks like a stage mom and in some of the pics it looks like Heidi is trying to pass a vacuum cleaner.

Switch-a-roo
The switch is imminent now. I cannot stand wordpress. Frankly the only thing keeping me there is the multiple pages it allows. No other reason.
