Is it monday yet?

So good news is that Austin is feeling better... bad news is Drew is not, I am convinced someone hates me somewhere...
So normally people are excited for their weekends, good for them! I however am looking forward to Monday. Why you ask? Because Austin will be at school, Drew will be at school and Chris will be back from his boys weekend with his bff John, and I will be surrounded by tiny satans running around, which normally wouldn't be too appealing however if it means getting rid of my angels for a couple of hours it will be great.  Don't get me wrong, I love my boys they are gifts from god blah blah blah but sometimes I consider google-ing how to sell your child on the black market.
I hate when Austin and Drew are sick but I love their attitudes they are so sweet and loving and tell me how much they love me and thanks mom for taking care of me..... but then when they feel better they turn all mean and condescending.... So Chris normally makes them "oreo shakes" , so while he is gone I thought I would make them one, Austin stood over me the entire time telling me that's not enough ice cream mom, dad doesnt add that much milk, my dad puts the oreos in a bag and crushes them first before he puts them in the blender, to which I replied what do you think the blender does Austin to which then he replied duh. So after I got done being micromanaged by my six year old I proudly poured them into a cup (which of course they had to fight about for like 5 mins, note to anyone who ever wants to buy them any sort of cup plate bowl etc. just get them the same thing thanks) they then yelled at me cause all I had left were pink straws, "mom, you should go to the store and get new straws" "mom do you think we are girls, we cant use pink straws they are for girls!" I told them only girls use straws anyways... that shut them up. Austin then criticized the oreo shake, saying it was to thick, i told him it was a malt, mom i don't even like malts, Austin you have never had a malt in your life how would you know, some kids in this world don't ever get malts they have never even tried ice cream, if you don't stop whining I will find one of those said children have them move in with me and you can go live with their family. he said thanks for the malt. So anyway, while I type this Austin is having a conniption fit cause he wanted to unload the dishwasher for me, i know what you are all thinking oh how sweeeeeet. Have a you ever had an OCD 6 year old? I need to go and help him put the silverware in the "correct position" according to him......

Have a great weekend....

I thought it was a new year....

So starting the new year to me means leave all the old stuff in the past right? Wrong! it is the 12th of January and we already have sickness in this house once again! In 2010 we had some sort of illness in this house at least once a week. We were on a sick free streak closing in on Christmas, if you count drew getting constipated and having to take him to the er in Fl, which I do not then we have been good for a while! But, here we are 12 days into the new year and Austin is home sick again. At least he isn't puking, THANK GOD!!!

Ok so here's the deal I am not one to sit down everyday to write out what is going on in our life, however, we will be moving to Korea soon and since I will not be able to have my phone connected to my face at all times I figured that this would be the best way to get information to the ones I love! Enjoy......
