Rainy Saturday!

So today it rained, not a fan of rain.  Before the rain started took the kids for a walk.

                               

                              

                              

                              

We walked to Wendy's and grabbed some lunch and came home to eat.

                              

                              

                               

                              

Then we danced, but Bradley didn't want his picture taken.

                             

                             

                             

That was our day.

House Of Cards

So today I watched the first season of House Of Cards.

Didn't really like it.  Thought it was boring and I didn't like how the guy talked to the camera.

But I would watch the second season when it comes out.

Getting ready to watch Hemlock Groves now.  I'll write my thoughts on it when I'm done watching it.

What Can I Say About Today?

So today, woke up feeling like crap.  

Kids were tired today as well from all the walking we did yesterday that we stayed home and did nothing all day.  The kids rode there bikes around the block a couple of times.  

Other then that nothing exciting.  Tomorrow will hopefully be a better day.

Bye for now lol.

Went For A Long Walk!

So today the kids and went for a long walk.  I was going to bring my iPad to take pictures for this blog but changed my mind.  I will bring it for tomorrow's blog, I think.

We went to pizza depot for lunch and then we went to a store called Healthy Planet.  It is a pretty cool store going to check it out again on Friday.  After that we went to Toys'R'Us and then Dollarama.  Then we decided to go to the mall.  So we walked a lot today, my hips were sore when I got home.

Since living at my parents I've been sleeping on the futon and my hips have been killing me ever since, not sure why really.  Anyway, that's my blog for today, I wish I would have brought my iPad with me.

Oh well!

A Nothing Tuesday

So like yesterday today was boring as well.  We did nothing all day.  I am really starting to hate living with my parents, but it's all I can afford at the moment.

Hopefully tomorrow I can figure something for us to do.  I don't have a lot of options.  Right now I am all ready for bed, but I can't sleep if I don't clear my head so that's what I'm doing.  Writing this blog is a way to clear my head I know I haven't been on it or have written a blog in a while but I'm here now.

Anyway, I'm done I think my head is cleared for now. Lol.

A Boring Monday

I woke up this morning with the worse headache ever.  Anyway, I did not want to get up but I did.  When I got up the two older boys were in the living room playing the Wii, I told to shut it off and eat something because I know they didn't eat anything.

So you see, we live with my parents and we are all started to dislike it here.  Me and the kids that is.  Being a single mom is hard, and I am trying to save money so the kids and I can get our place but its not working out all that well.  So I am not sure what I'm going as of yet, but I need to come to a decision very soon.  Well before school starts in September anyway.

Anyway, the kids after eating breakfast went outside with my mom and I went downstairs to fold laundry because I did it all day.  They rode there bikes around the block and the little one was pulled in the wagon.  And after lunch I put the little one for a nap, he was getting cranky.

When I went back outside my mom told that the mailman said that Chance the dog bit him.  But I think the mailman was lying because if Chance had bit him he would have called the police and he didn't.  The mailman continued delivering the mail.  Do you think the mailman should have called the police or do think he was lying?

Anyway the day was pretty much a bore.  Going to bed early tonight still have that terrible headache I woke up with.

Have a great read, and I'll be back with more.

Review on Kiehl's Marvelous Mineral Mascara

Today I decided I would do a review on my favourite mascara.  I am not being paid to do it, I just wanted to share my favourite mascara with everyone.



1.  How does it work?
-  Kiehl's Marvelous Mineral Mascara is very gentle on lashes.  It contains jojoba oil and aloe vera to condition lashes and uses a tug free brush.  The rich colour comes from mineral pigments and acai Senegal gives the mascara its volumizing  power.

2.  How did it perform?
-  Kiehl's Marvelous Mineral Mascara made my lashes dark, long and thick, everything I want in a long-wearing mascara.  Kiehl's Marvelous Mineral Mascara isn't labeled as a water-resistant formula, it stayed in place all day without ever giving me the slightest hint of raccoon eyes.

3.  Is it right for me?
-  Kiehl's Marvelous Mineral Mascara is a wonderful, all around mascara it comes in two shades, black and black brown.




It is labeled as opthomalogist tested and is allergy tested and that its safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.

It is a little pricey because I ordered it in from the States, but I recommend it for everyone!

Thanks for reading and keep reading.

Toddler Topics: Dealing with Tantrums

Today's topic is a hard one.  My 22 month old has tantrums but not alot of them, and when he does have them he gets so frustrated he bangs his head on anything hard.

My other 3 children still have tantrums but I dont ever remember them banging there heads on anything.

I have mentioned this to the doctor but all he said was that he has a temper.  I can see that as his father is a lose cannon, literally.  But that's another story.

When Gunner does have his tantrums I usually just let him have it until the head banging starts, then I stop it.  When we are in public and he has a tantrum I leave where ever I am and go home. 

Other then that I dont know how else I can or should deal with it.  It seems to be working fine and he doesnt have alot of them.  He is a good little boy and I love him tantrums and all.

Thanks for reading and keep on reading.

Day In A Life: Feb. 24/2013



So, today I am doing a Day in a Life.  Gunner is 22 months.  He is getting so big.  Anyway, here is some pictures of Gunner and Huntter dancing.









These two love to dance and listen to music.  And the older boys, Dylan and Bradley love there video games lol.


 
 

They are playing Plants vs. Zombies.  This was before I told them we were going to there favourite toy store, Toys R Us.



 
Yes I know his carseat isnt done up properly.  He knows how to pull on the chest piece and loosens it.  But I did fix it after i took this picture when i realized what he had done.

 
This is my mother she came with us to Toys R Us.


 
This was taken before we went in and had a blast.  We stayed for a hour and a bit.  Its so much fun in there.
 
 
 
 
Huntter loves her Monster High dolls.


 
Gunner almost fell asleep in the cart.  Poor baby was so tired, but he was a trooper.



 
Gunner with his favourite toy, a ball.



 
My mom needed a break lol.
 
 
After Toys R Us, we headed home to put Gunner for his nap and relax.  We played a game of Sorry and a couple of games of Crazy Eights.  The boys also read and watched there shows.  Huntter watched my mom start supper.
 
 
 


 
I was bored and took a picture of myself, lol.


 
This is what my mom is cooking.  Its a yummy roast.
 
 
While supper was cooking,  we watched a movie and waited for Gunner to wake up.  When Gunner got up, the big kids went and played outside until my stepdad got home from the trailer.  And then we had our yummy supper.
 
 
 
 
Roast and rice yum!
 




After supper, I watched another movie.  Gave Huntter and Gunner a bath.  Then the older boys played there new Lego game.  Then the kids went to bed, and I am now writing this Day in a life blog. 

I hope you all enjoy our day.

Thanks for reading and keep on reading.
