Period. Period.

When you have a child having a period is the worst experience in the world and the best all at the same time. Seeing as when I got pregnant with Dylan I had been on birth control since I was 15, and had been smoking so much marijuana that conceiving should've been near impossible... I don't hardly even trust BC at this point. So when I don't get my period for 2 months I get worried. I am sure you can understand that. So YAY period.

Talk about cramps, mood swings, bloating... WHILE chasing a 19 month old AND a puppy! Not happening. Holy crap. Its been two months, so I had kind of forgotten I guess, I just knew I wanted it to start, but with out the debilitating side effects. I can hardly sit up straight right now just to type this. Ugh.

Yay no babies in my belly.... Boo stupid cramps and bitchiness. (Sorry for the language, I plan to keep this pretty G rated, except for the dreaded period blog! haha)

***Update about last night***

BD & I got a few hours ALONE!!! My bestest best friend Breanne had Dylan watch TV at her place for a few hours while BD & I went to a model casting call. He got picked to be a runway model!! I got picked to be a "still" model! I will be body painted and be in the crowd posing all night! November 28th! For $25 you can come to the Celebrity Chairty Fashion Show &&&& The AFTER PARTY! I can't wait! This will be awesome, a whole 24 hours pretty much of me & BD having some "sexy" fun together out in the town.

Dylan did so good at Bres so yay!

Yesterday was a great day! :)

Today will be another great day too I hope... Minus the P. Ugh. Hanging out with my mom this afternoon. BD has a HUGE day today... 5 jobs. Ugh. I feel bad for him.

Today is going to be a hectic day... ugh. Borrowed my moms car in order to run an errand that is 23 miles away! AN HOUR DRIVE! and not even worth it.
The mall = Worth It
The Dentist = SOOO Not Worth It.
Dylan is running around with his pitch fork for his Devil halloween costume. It is a scary sight.

Rafal was about 20minutes late for work today. Ooops.
I need to come up with some code words for "stuff" so that my readers know whats up, but it can be a secret to the rest of the world. Give me any ideas?

I will write more and broadcast later <3

TMS - Typical Male Syndrome

So I just spent the last 45minutes reading a post and all its comments on a site I belong to called MomsLikeMe.com. It started with a Stay at Home Mom [SAHM] talking about how annoyed she was with her husband and how he DOES work but when he comes home he has a tendency to pass out RIGHT before doing his chores. I squealed in delight to know I wasn't alone in this, then decided I had to blog it! My BD [baby daddy] does have a very strenuous job, and will sometimes have 60-70 hour weeks working for a moving company. Right now is the "slow season" though so he is lucky to get a 20 hour week. I won't lie, I spoil my man. On a normal day that he has to work I get up with Dylan if he gets up before we do. I take Dyl in the other room so daddy can get as much sleep as possible. On those days I usually make him some breakfast and hot tea. Now on an off chance Dyl sleeps late I just let BD get up on his own, kiss him goodbye as he leaves and I will go back to sleep until Dylan gets me up. Days BD works I do it all. Clean the house, do dishes, put away laundry, scrub toilet, and EVEN have dinner ready when he gets home. The house gets the spotless treatment about twice a week, thats the whole shebang, vaccuming and dusting, you know the whole nine-yards. The house will be lookin great and smelling great until he gets home. First thing he always does is take his shirt and socks off in the bed room. Here is hamper [] here is where they end up >>> ___. Two feet away from the hamper. Ok, ok, ok.... I pick 'em up right away so I don't get upset. I put them in the hamper and kiss him. Then he sits down on the couch, OR at the computer. Thats where he will remain until food is served. We just recently got a dining room table so we eat there EVERY night. So he will come in the kitchen and get Dylan in his high chair, and help with feeding him. Fast forward to dinner being done. Dylan takes a bath RIGHT after dinner every night, its part of his routine. So this is when the tooth pulling begins. "Baby, will you give Dylan a bath while I clean up the kitchen?" Fair trade right? 10minute bath vs. 30minute kitchen mess. I think he gets the "fun" job, so I expect no complaints. 6 times out of 10 he will jump up and get to it no problem. But the other 4 times when he SIGHS and complains and says things like "Can you tonight baby? I am soooo tired".... I hate that response. I am tired too but SURE I will bathe him AND clean the kitchen why the heck not! Now I don't want this to turn in to a BASH on BD post but.... as one of the Stay at Home Dad's wrote on that page... theres a female comedy that says "Load the dishwasher, thats SUCH a turn on!". It is completely the truth. He will have four or five days off in a row sometimes and will just lay around. Like he is God of the house. I get that he deserves a day off when he works so hard... but when is MY day off? He has NEVER once on his own gotten up with Dylan one morning and played with him in the livingroom while cooking me breakfast like I do weekly for him. I don't get to "blow" money on pedicures or my hair, but he gets to go golfing and get a 12 pack of beer and ciggerettes whenever he wants. How does that work. I can't wait for the day he sets his alarm for a MOMMY day. I would love to see him do my job. Wake up with Dylan one day so I could sleep in and have a "day off". Then just chase him and the puppy around all day while I sat by the pool and painted my nails. Then he could cook dinner AND clean it all up WHILE bathing Dylan because I don't wana.

Granted he has amazing qualities.... He will go get me tampons, or a random pregnancy test when I get worried. He will even do the dishes on occasion after only asking him 3 times nicely. He takes out the trash all on his own, after it is overflowing BUT he gets it out. He can fix ANYTHING. He will go to church if I beg him. He DOES help with laundry on laundry day! He will do just about any chore if I ask a few times. (Would be nice if I didn't have to ask.. BUT you know how that goes) He will rock Dylan to sleep at least one night a week. Especially when he sees I am stressed out. There are more.. but I can't think of them right now haha

I love him. It is so tiring living with him, but I know I couldn't live with out him. I spoil him, so it is my fault. Maybe he will read this and one day give me a surprise of doing the dishes on his own, bathing Dylan without me asking, putting Dyl to bed without the nagging and complaining. Would be nice. Hint Hint! hehe

Blood Clot. Ugh.

Last Thursday I had a tooth pulled for the first time ever, & it was probably the worst of my dental experiences ever. EVER. I had to be sedated due to the fact the tooth would have to be drilled and cut out. The pain and swelling was ridiculous. Lasting 5 days, the swelling that is. The pain is still horrendous! My whole jaw is sore and throbbing. So today I had my follow up appointment, I guess I "lost" the blood clot? What ever that means. All I know is he shoved a huge brown wad of fabric down in my wound, talk about pain. Then he persrcibed me some Tylenol 3's. THANK THE LORD ABOVE! I had a *bad* reaction to the Vicodin on Thursday night and swore I was choaking to death. Turns out I kind of was, my throat closed up... I won't even get in to all of that. Lets just say, thankfully after about 5 hours of trouble breathing and non-stop barfing I could breathe again! Yay! It was also good that for the most part this all went on after Dyl was asleep and Rafal was already home from work taking care of me. So today was a huge debacle getting me to the doctor at 9:30am, and then Dylan to his [follow up after his ER visit] doctor appointment at 10:50am. We got there at 10:20am thinking we would get in earlier if we got there earlier. Except not. It was noon before they got us back. Dylan had had 7 fits by then, cried on the floor 3 times AND completely embarrassed us twice. Not to mention the work out we get chasing him up and down the hallways of the doctors office. Then when we finally were seen, it was for 3 minutes, and the doctor did was look in his ears.... She said "Looks like it is clearing up!" Duh. He is OBVIOUSLY feeling better. So I was completely stressed out and in insane pain for her to tell me he is getting better. Ugh.

Today was just a long day. AHHH! It's hardly half way through... only 2:45pm. Dylan took a long nap the whole way home from Tampa, then we treated him to some McDonalds. When we were in the Walgreens drive-thru getting my drugs he kept saying "meeel-k" which is his way of saying Happy Meal.. Then he was saying FRY! FRY! FRY! So we indulged for the first time in a long while. Mmmmm McChicken & Fries.... Now I feel fat. [lol]

Rafal went to play golf with some of the members from our new church, YAY! I am so ready to meet "good" people. I am tired of the people our age, they are still so immature and rude. Not all.... but pretty much every one we have met since Dylan got here, they were all deadbeats. They get drunk and do drugs with their babies on their hips. I don't care to drink or do drugs. I am by no means a prude, BUT I know that you *CANT* be a parent when you are under the influence of... anything. So when we get a sitter for a whole night I will go out and have one too many drinks, but NEVER when I know I have to be a mommy. Some people don't see it as a big deal... but I just don't want my son growing up thinking drinking is cool and fine. It isn't. It is a drug, it alters your mind and can make you some one your not. Alcoholism runs in the family on my side and his dads sooooo he is a huge risk. Gotta keep him on the right track starting early!

This is a long rant! I just took a T3 so hopefully I will start to feel better in my mouth region ASAP! What is every one doing for Halloween? No tricker treating... I wana do something else with Dylan. He is a little Devil. I will try to scan his pictures we had done last night. He looks like a little man in his costume. SCARY for sure.

What are you and your children going to be?

Poor sick DylBug...

I feel bad for Dylan.. He just isn't fully himself again yet. Started the antibiotics last night so I guess it does take some time for those to really start working. He usually jumps and dances and giggles all day... now he is just "chill". He lays around and is pretty calm for the most part. He even likes to snuggle which is WAY out of the ordinary. Its hard as his mommy to see him so blah feeling.

In other news, the cold front is gone. AGH! Its 89 degrees outside again. I want to keep the air off, but I don't know if we can take this for much longer. It is not hot if you don't move at all [lol] BUT I am not stop up and down all day, therefore it is hot.

Daddy got home early today so YAY! If you were watching live you got to see how excited Dylan gets when his daddy gets home! Today we are going to my Mom & Dad's for dinner and were going to go shopping for Dylans halloween costume. I am sure that will be fun and I will DEFF post up some cute pictures of that!

Mommy Cam & 100 Views!

Every 100 Views I will add something new and cool to the page... Well atleast until I have added everything cool I know about! So as of THIS 100 views now we have a mommy cam you guys can giggle at! You never know when we will be live, it ALL depends on Dylans mood, and of course MOMMYS mood :]

OMG! A shower? Really?!?

News flash.
When your 19 month old is sick, you don't have time to BATHE!

I know it has been a few days considering my legs are prickly. Ugh. I hate when this happens. Probably been 3 days, how disgusting! I feel icky!!! I am a very vain woman. Always wanting to look good for my baby daddy and for my self. But between a crying baby and a spastic puppy, I have hardly gotten an hour of sleep at once. His dads been working thank GOD, but that leaves little "ME" time. I am sure you understand.

Dylan is finally napping w00t! His dad will be off work early today, w00t! So why am I sitting here typing when I could be getting in a quick shower before Rafal gets home... I don't know! haha

Relaxing shower here I come!

Remember how laundry used to be?

I hate laundry as a family.
Worst part of having a family.
Well laundry & dishes are both up there!

Remember when you could do ONE teeny load of laundry a week or do like only have 2 or 3 dishes in the sink at a time? Yeah, when you were single... and living on your own. HAHA I just did laundry, and here it is again. With three of us and a poopie puppy, I have 4 baskets full. Never have time to drag laundry and my son to the laundromat so we have to wait for time when daddy is avilable to help too. Which isn't often. He works sometimes 70 hour weeks. Which IS a blessing, but I smell bad at this point. We are so poor that I had to just separate through the dirty laundry... Five different piles.
-Dylan clothes (all of his ALWAYS get washed)
-Rafal work clothes (they always get washed too obviously)
-Underware (duh!)
-My favs to wear (a few shirts and a pair or two of jeans)
-His favs to wear (a few shirts and shorts)
Now I am down to TWO baskets... still costing about $10 just to wash. Ugh. Laundry is such a biotch!

BUT dishes.... I HATE DOING DISHES. Always have always will. Can't wait to get a dishwasher. Rafal did the dishes last night for me, to help me out, thank God. LAST NIGHT. Already from soup for dinner, and snacks for Dylan, and breakfast as well as lunch today, both sides of my sink are FULL. SO here we go again.

I had a melt down this morning and cried on the kitchen floor. Dylan is my knight in shinning armour. He stood by me rubbing my arm saying "k?" over and over again. He was worried about me. But I just needed to cry. My house is a mess. The dog was pooping on the floor, Dylan spilled tea on the WHITE carpet.... all the while Daddy was still snuggled in bed. I just broke down. Then on the way to the doctor I started singing

"Kids screamin, phone ringin, dog barkin at the mail man bringin the stack of bills OVERDUE, good mornin baby how are you, got a half hour, a quick shower, take a drink of milk but the milks gone sour my funny face, makes her laugh, twist the cap on and I put it back. There goes the washin machine, baby don't kick it promise I'll fix it, long about a million other things... well its OK, its alright, just another day in paradise, well theres no place that I'd rather be, two hearts one dream, wouldn't trade it for anything, and i ask the lord every night ohhhhhh for just another day in paradise."

I love that song, its my life.
And I love it.
We are PERFECTLY imperfect.

The Search for a Seasonal Job::

I just have a small complaint.

I am looking for a SMALL part-time seasonal job, 10 hours a week would be FINE!

Why is it that a job that is ONLY paying $10/hr or even WORSE $6.50/hr asking for resumes?!

I will give you my resume if you are paying me $15/hr like a good job I once had. But to sell lotion at Bath & Body Works you have got to be kidding me. I will fill out an application like the rest of the world thank you very much.


In GOOD news. Daddy took Dylan with him and his brother to run errands for an hour or so. It is silent in my home. Amazing. & Lonely all at the same time. Weird right?

Church is GREAT!

I wana send a quick shout out to Granny Barb for the Email today. I am excited to see other people are reading and enjoying my rants and raves. And thank you to my first 17 viewers as well. Means a lot that you have taken time to click and read a random blog!

On with today. What a gorgeous day in Clearwater, FL. Woke up freezing in bed, I had turned off the A/C on Friday night and left the windows open all weekend. Brr! Dylan is STILL not feeling up to par. So, I really think we have to get to the doctor on Monday.

Last night Rafal and I got to have a DATE FOR ONCE! YAY!!! We went and saw Paranormal Activity while Nana & Papa stayed with Dylan. It was a crazy movie but the craziest part of all was when we were walking to the car. A random woman (Tamara) pulled us to the side and said "Wow, crazy huh? I am for sure going to church tomorrow! You should come too! It's on US19, called New Purpose! They have coffee and doughnuts and you can wear flip-flops! Its a blast! See you there!" I told Rafal if that wasn't a sign that we needed to get to church that I didn't know how much more obvious God would have to make it. SO we got up and went today. GREAT church, GREAT people, GREAT fun.

Dylan had a BLAST in the nursery. He ate cookies and played with a little toy kitchen and tool bench. He made friends. And that made my heart feel super happy :) [If you know what that line is from then your a REAL stay at home mom lol] As a stay at home mom Dylan doesn't get a lot of interaction with other children and it breaks my heart. He loves to play with other kids so one day we WILL have other children, just not today. Too much stress as it is.

We will be going to this church more often, if not for us, for Dylan's sake. He deserves friends and buddies and church cookies :)

How do you feel about church and children? My family never really went to church, but Dylan's dad was brought up strictly Catholic... it's odd how people come together.

Cold's and Babies. What a blasty blast!

Does it hurt any one elses heart when your child is sick? Mainly when they are so small they can't tell you what is really bothering them? I feel so awful for Dylan, he has had a low grade fever and runny nose since Wednesday night. Called the Doc and they always say the same thing... As long as it stays under 103degrees he is probably just teething or dealing with a small cold. So, that is what we do. He has been drinking Pedialyte and taking childrens Tylenol every 4-8 hours as needed since Wednesday. If he isn't better by Monday we ARE taking him to the doctor. I hate seeing him so less active than normal. He is such a spunky outgoing little boy. He loves running and dancing, and he has just been very laid back lately. Which, IS, kind of nice.

I had a tooth pulled on Thursday and ended up having an allergic reaction to the Vicodin they gave me. I was sick for what felt like for ever. Ugh. I am sure you know what it is like to be unGodly sick alone with a baby. Not a cake walk. Daddy had to be at work at 4:30am so yeah... AND Dylan woke up about 10minutes before Daddy had to leave, and I was sick as a dog. Not fun at all. Thank God I am better now. No more Vicodin for mommy. The Extra Strength Tylenol works JUST fine.

Todays weather was gorgeous eh? 65degrees here in Clearwater. We went for a 3 mile walk round trip to Barnes & Nobel. Talk about a built in babysitter. Grab a few books and go sit in the children's section by the train station table, your good to go for AT LEAST an hour!

Anyone want to meet up there sometime let me know! Barnes & Nobel on US 19 by Publix and Sports Authority. Would be a blast!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend so far. Church at 10:45am, and Dylan JUST fell asleep so gonna go have some alone time with baby daddy. Talk more soon!
