March is almost here!

Rien is having her baby dedication on Sunday, March 14th. If anybody wants to come, please do. She has a new outfit from Gingersnaps for the occassion. :) She is growing so fast. She has the sweetest personality. She's starting to look a lot like I did when I was little. She laughs all the time and loves anything her brother does. He is her favorite person. I bought her first can of formula today. I don't know if we will have to use it but there have been a few days while at work that she barely has enough milk. So, I bought it just in case.

Both kids go to bed everynight at 9pm and sleep til between 7am-9am each day. Lucky me. But I don't go to bed until way after them because I am a moron. haha.

Work. AHHHHH!!! It's crazy and there are a few people there that seriously need to go. They are liars and phonies and it is so frustrating. But their time will come. I just have to try to not let it get to me in the meantime. I love what I do it just gets stressful. Especially right now while I am taking on so much. I just need to find a system that works for me. Also to some other people, 75% of us work 10x harder than you so quit complaining or leave. You irritate me.

Anywho. I seriously need to start working out but I always have the kids when I am not at work so it's pretty much impossible. I need the weather to improve so I can work/jog with the kids. I still have 11 total pounds to loose by Mother's Day. 6 of that I have scheduled to loose by St. Patrick's Day.

Haley Rae is coming to Texas next month. I am sooooo excited. I haven't seen her since June. This will be here first time meeting Rien. I must buy Miss Rien Rae something cute for the occassion. (It's my excuse.) This will be her first visit that we will get to hang out. No birthday parties, baby showers, etc. Just hang out. Thank God. It's about time.

Sean got a new car! Finally we each have our own car! It's a 2007 Hyundai Accent Hatchback. I was a little pissed because it's white. I wanted my Jeep to be white but he insisted we get it in black. Not fair!!!

Well March is full of great/new things.

Sean started a new full time day time job so the kids will be starting childcare...which I am very nervous about. Expecially since I am supposed to meet with the potentional sitter on Saturday. I just hope we click and I feel like I can trust her otherwise....I might cry. My mom and two very close family friends have approved her but I need to approve her. The kids have never been in childcare before so it's stressful to me. What if Rien takes her first steps there. Then what? That would crush me. I will ask that she doesn't tell me anything like that. Just pretend like it's didn't happen. I think that's the right thing to do. I hope she can start Monday if not, AHHHH!!! I only have my mom's help through Friday.

Rien's baby dedication and Haley. Yay for March.

Well it is 10pm and I have work/house work today. More info to come later.

Rien Rae is 6 Months Old, Ect.

Today our princess is 6 months old. It's so hard to believe that 6 months ago after a long labor that lasted almost 2 hours. HAHA. Just kidding please no one slap me. My total time in labor for two kiddos was seven hours. Do any of you moms want to slap me know? My next baby will just fall right out. LOL. Rien is such a sweetheart. A lot of her food is homeade. Which is a lot easier than I thought it would be. She is a big fan of baked apple and banana. My mom and Sean think it's pretty tasty.

Friday Sean had my favorite flower delivered to work. He is on a roll so far that's 2 months out of 2 months in 2010 that I have gotten flowers. Pink Roses in January and Oriental Lillies in February. That night Sean and Rien went to a Daddy/Daughter Valentines Dance. He had so much fun taking her. I wish they had Mommy/Son dances because Riker loves to dance and sing.

Last Saturday Riker and Rien had their first sibling photo taken together. Riker loves having his picture taken but was VERY unhappy to share the spotlight with Rien. Next Saturday we are getting pics of just Rien. We bought the kids some new clothes and shoes, went to Emma's birthday party, and then went to Babies R' Us to take advantage of the 25% Trade in. It was hard to say goodbye to our old stroller and carseat....it was Riker's. I seriously wanted to cry. But, that carseat was set to expire before I plan on having another baby so it had to go. We had planned on getting a new carseat for Rien but since the carseat I wanted (Britax Boulevard) only had 2 styles available in store, Riker ended up with the new one because it was more boyish than the onyx Boulevard we already had.

Riker is growing up so fast. I love that we have actual conversations now. His great loves are trains, Buzz, Dino Train, Sid the Science Kid, and snacks. Any snack really.....the kid likes food. He eats alot of healthy stuff so it doesn't bother me.

Sean starts a new job on Friday and it's full time. I work full time too and as of right now we have no childcare. AHHHHH!!! My mom can help some this month but I am running out of time to come up with a plan. Seriously if anybody knows of someone or somewhere that can start by March 1st let me know. PLEASE!!!

As for my weight loss, I still have 11 pounds to loose. Not baby weight, that's all gone. This is just extra stuff. It's my goal to have 6 of that gone by St. Patty's day. I missed my V-Day goal by 3 so I really hope I can catch up! I need to be in shape by swimsuit season.

Well that's all for now. BYE YA'LL! :)
