So the last week I have been nearly on my death bed. But not really in my bed because being a stay-at-home mom doesn't offer me the luxury of a sick day. I have realized that is definitely a negative. I wish I could get a temp until I get better.
This past week my Bella and I Have been extremely sick. And I noticed that my job performance has been lacking ever since my symptoms began. Bella and Kingston we're playing in her room and all of the sudden I hear her screaming. I run in the room to find that Kingston had closed her in the closet in the dark and was now jumping on the bed while his little sister persist to scream her head.
Hence to say he got popped and went straight to bed, However not before I close him in his closet so he knows how it feels. He was not to happy, but I'm sure it won't happen again. I digress.....
Congestion, lots of phlegm, sneezing, coughing, sore throat, sinus pressure and the list goes on.
I felt at one point that I was a patient on an episode of "HOUSE".
I had so many symptoms and then all of a sudden I had none. Then I was awakened at 3:30 a.m. to excruciating ear pain. I went to the doc today to find out that I had a sinus infection and an ear infection. Not good, at all. And this temp idea is becoming more tempting.
I feel horrible, I actually feel like I am flying on a plane with congestion. Hoping I feel better soon.

My reincarnate, my husband reincarnate, and our angel..
This is an introduction to my children. They are my life and I love them dearly.
My 8 yr old is Shaydon he is my first and my husband calls him my reincarnate.
He says we are like the same person and I guess he's right a little bit. He does stuff that I do and acts how I act at times. He is compassionate, loving, forgetful, ad he is a selective listener (onlu listens to what he wants to listen to) But he is my first born and he's the momma's boy.
My husband's reincarnate is Kingston, he acts just like him.
He has a temper, wants things the way he wants them, he says,"Because I said so." He gets frustrated easy, but can be so sweet at times. He is also very demanding.
Last but definitely not least Bella. Our little angel. Initially she was a monster crying all the time for the first 3 weeks of life. And with a 19 month old and a newborn sleep was very necessary. After I held the doc hostage until he told me why she wouldn't stop crying finally something was done and we all had a good nights sleep. The doc really had the nerve to tell me babies cry, like she wasn't my third child. She ended up having acid reflux.
We got the medicine and were on our way. Well anyway she is my perfect baby. She only cries when she is really hungry and/or really tired. She is my sweetheart. She makes me want to have another baby. (But don't worry honey not right now, I'm good lol.)
Bella Harmony's name is so fitting because she brings beautiful harmony to our lives. Everybody adores her and that's probably why she doesn't really want to walk yet because everyone holds her. ALthough she is either 26.8lbs or 28.6lbs I think I'm dyslecsic. The doc said she's off the charts and will be between 5'9"-5'11". She's a biggin. And we love every inch.

My full time job...
So, who ever said being a stay-at-home mom wasn't a full time job was clearly mistaken. My job is to take care of my kids, clean house, and make dinner.
Now that definitely comes with some other jobs as well. I am also the financial adviser (No honey we shouldn't buy that!), the accountant ( Where did that money go?), the head buyer ( I always have a list an spend time cutting coupons to inevitably forget them at home.), the chef, the server and the maid (although my 7 yr old is our dishwasher. There's probably a few I'm missing but whatever.
Now before I go forward let me start by saying my husband does a lot. He is the moneymaker, the coach, the playtime wrestler, the glue that keeps us all together. A very important aspect of this family dynamic.
Being a stay-at-home mom is the hardest job I've ever had.

Disclaimer: I am very lazy. The world is filled with people with good intentions and I am undoubtedly one of them. My problem is the follow through. I'll make a list of all things that need to be done and forget the list.
