I treasure this photo very much...it's those few times when my boys are getting along and leaning on one another. My poor Justines with his running nose and sad puppy face. We call him Justines sometimes because we (including the doctor) thought he was a girl in the beginning, AND because I wished for a boy and a girl. He's so sensitive, yet very stubborn. He's such a poor boy when he's tired; sitting or lying on the ground with a sad puppy frown. The only thing that makes him happy is when Mommy holds him all day until her arms and back are sore. He's such a mama's boy. My little poor Justin. Hope your nose stops running soon!

Question of the day: Would you be open to having more than ten biological children?
What do you think of the Duggars? Would you be open to having more than ten biological children?
I think having my 2 boys is comfortable...3 is starting to look like a zoo and any more than that is a class of your own. I think if I had 8 kids I would just lock myself in the bathroom and only come out when they need to be fed.

What fascinates you?
You know what fascinates me? How Christopher has so much energy from the time he wakes up at 7:30 till his bedtime around 8pm. I seriously need at least 2 cups of coffee to keep up with him!

Sorry Momaroo..An Update
I know I haven't been keeping this site up to date! I am going to try more often! I do have another older xanga site that is more up to date, that's why I keep forgetting to check momaroo.
Tonight I saw "Taken", it is about a father who had a previous job as a bodyguard, who lost his daughter to a group of foreign sexual predators in France. I was truly touched by the love of this father for his child. he would literally do anything to get his daughter back. So touched...sniff sniff...
The weather is cold here in MD, well below the freezing point. It is so cold that I don't feel like going outside at all. I think I will have cabin fever soon if I don't, so tomorrow will be a day that I will not be inside the house.
It is Sunday now, 2 days away from Obama day, so excited for him, it is truly going to be a historical day. I love him but i will not sacrifice my warmth to stand outside in DC with my boys for you, sorry!!
Today is the 18th, that means 12 more days until we pack and head across to CA and then Hawaii! Very excited for that vacation/trip because I have never been to either places.
Update on my boys, Christopher and Justin is currently going through a food virus, must be something they ate. First Justin had it and now Christopher, I am currently not feeding them anything big until it's completely over.

What Do You Love Most About Motherhood?
I am so glad it's Friday mostly because Justin is feeling better. Two days ago, he must of ate something that made him vomit everything and destroyed his appetite because of it. The first time was a few minutes after putting him to sleep. I heard him crying and went in to find him soaked along with the sheets and comforter. I quickly took his cloth off and took a the quickest 2 min bath ever to wash him, dress him and motion him up. During that time, husband took care of the bed. I then held him in the other room and he fell asleep again next to me. A few minutes later, he puked again, mostly water and stomach acid this time. I cleaned up again and this cycle happened 3-4 times before he finally stopped. Fianlly he just lied on top of me calm with his eyes open listening to my heartbeat and then slowly drifted off to sleep. I gave him what he needed most, which was love; arms to hold him while he puked; a warm blanket and soft kisses, and reassurance that he would feel better soon. No one else can do that but Mommy. It's the best job in the world. What do you love most about Motherhood?

Saturday Morning Ramblings
I think I woke up a little too early...it is 5am and I am ready to get this long day started! I think I might drink my daily cup of coffee later around 7:30. I normally wake up 2-3 times every night but this time I couldn't go back to sleep because I was really thirsty for some reason. The boys are sleeping fine, but my body is still used to waking up at night. I tell people I haven't had a full night's sleep since I was pregnant 3 1/2 years ago and people are amazed...your body gets used it. Some people are still amazed after I tell them that I haven;t had a good night's sleep since I was pregnant with my first. Speaking of pregnancy, I don't think there's another one anytime soon, i really do want a break from the baby and toddler stage..I feel like I've been stuck in this stage for the last 3 1/2 years!! Dont get me wrong but I love the baby stage! After seeing my Christopher finally in underwear and potty trained, I realized WOW I can used to this...not changing poop and pee every 2-3 hours! YES! Now on to Justin...come on Justin. Sigh...the thing about boys and potty training, no matter how much you push them and how early you start it, it all depends on them and when their body is ready, so lesson is don't rush it!
Now onto a day of FunFit and yummy food....happy birthday to mother-in-law.
What is your most cherrished material possession? I will have to say my Odyssey van and my computer. Both of which helps me become a better mom in some ways. Without both of these items I will be going crazy after my days with my boys. I try taking them out to a park/playground to run around and if it's too cold, we run around in the mall. And the other item is self explainatory...without a computer, I will not know what's going with my friends and the rest of the world, also my source of self-break.

Long Week!
On Wednesday (November 19th), I actually managed to hurt my feet in the kitchen area. I went to grab the laptop from the box, turned around and tripped on Justin and slipped and landed my weight on my left hip and foot. That's how I bruised my left foot...amazing...I did all of that without leaving the house. I don't know why I rushed to get the laptop. It seems for the two times that the cleaning lady came over, I hurt myself in some way shap or form. The last time she came over, I hurt my nose on the chair in the kitchen. Bad Luck. Throughout the day I tried to entertain the two boys the best that I could but of course Christopher likes to go over and observe her and work along with her, kind of cute I guess in the child laborish kind of way... In the afternoon, while she cleaned the stairs and upstairs, I took a nap with Justin and didn't realize Christopher stayed up aanyways. I had to take the maid back. I tried my best to put my Spanish into good use, but I realized I have forgotten a lot of grammer and vocabulary. I did have a conversation with her during lunch while eating our quesadilla and nuggets. I plan to help keep the kitchen a little cleaner from now on so that we don't need to hire this lady for $130 each time. Damm! why can't I get paid for keeping my house clean.
For the rest of this week (Wed-Fri), I managed te stay home the whole time with the boys, without stepping outside the door. Kind of hard going anywhere when I am limping around the whole time. The weather was indeed horribly freezing for playing outside. But I did have to take care of my boys the same way, so I dealt with holding Justin and going up and down the stairs to get stuff and cleaning up after their messes.
Today (Saturday), I wished it started off differently, me and Hubby got up late and rushed to take Justin to the doctor's for a secnd flu shot. A flu shot or any shot takes about 10 seconds?, we ended up waiting at the office for over an hour...it was the longest bloody hour I have ever waited in that office. God Help Me. If I could go back and redecide, I would of never picked a pediatrician for my boys, it is a waste of time and money!! This is coming from a person who has never taken a cold medication since the age of 12, and look at me now, I am healthy as any horse. Who needs immunizations or flu shots, it is all peer pressure from society! I know plenty of moms who don't have doctors and did fine...it's called natural family living.

What is always guaranteed to make you smile, even on a bad day?
What is gauranteed to make me smile?, especially on my bad days? Coffee..or rather Caffeine I suppose. The laughter of my kids when I tickle them really hard. When Christopher comes over and asks me "Are you okay Mommy?" and kisses me on the mouth. Those three things always makes me smile.

Justin Nathaniel (18 months)
Weight: 22lbs 6 oz. (10 percentile)
Height: 32 1/2 inches (50 percentile)
Head Circumference: 49 cm (75 percentile)
J had 3 shots along with his regular checkup, including a flu shot this morning. Poor thing was screaming at the top of his lungs. I don't think I can tolerate being a nurse who does the dirty jobs for the doctor, like giving shots to everyone and have them hate you. Development wise he is pretty on schedule, our main concern was injuries around the house like falling and hitting his head on something. But the doctor reassured us that it's what we see on the outside that's disturbing but what's happening on the inside aka. the brain. So even if the scratch or scab is really bad as long as he seems normal afterwards then it's fine. We would be concerned if after he falls, he doesn't stop crying or starts vomiting or dizziness.
