piy

Natalie put together her own menu for tomorrow. When she wrote pumpkin she had first written pmpn piy. The way the little mind works is amazing to me.  
Ive been studying hard too. I am fixing to get my Real Estate Licence and so I have been working hard every day to get complete the classes. It is draining me trying to do everything in a day plus work on school work, but I know it is worth it in the end. I am really excited to be done. I will be like a female Phil Dunphey...yes!!
 
So last night I wasn't feeling very good and I went to the gym to get a workout in. I got on the treadmill and could barely stand up straight. I was hunching over and tried my hardest to run but could only get about 2 min of running in, then I walked for another 30. I was again trying to speed walk at an incline, but for the life of me I couldn't get going faster than 2.0 - slow.  I finally gave up and took the kids home. I made them promise me that they would go to bed so good and help me out. Boots was awesome, but Natalie was a pill. First I came out of my room cause I heard them talking. I walked out and listened to them upstairs. I first saw the stairs full of stuffed animals. Each stair had its own stuffed animal. Natalie was up there telling boots that this is a pathway so mom knows where to go when she comes to check on us tonight. It was really sweet. I creeped up the stairs to find the hallway covered in little stuffed paths as well heading into each of their 3 bedrooms. I sent boots to bed, and he listened. Natalie was Natalie and didn't. It took another hour and a half to finally get her to bed, after crying herself to sleep because I wouldn't let her open the door anymore. I hate bedtime when they wont listen. I mean, how many times do you let them come out of their room and tell you no that they wont go back to bed/? I just didn't know what else to do. I yelled and got upset, started to cry, and then slammed her door. I'm such a little kid. Anyway, Brian was not happy when he got home to hear how they had treated me, so they got woken up at midnight and had to clean their rooms and the toy room until it was all clean. Lets hope they learn a little lesson here...
So today, I am laying in bed still not feeling good. Achy, and sore and headache. fever and chills. Just yuck. PLEASE let me feel better for thanksgiving tomorrow!!
