Not Sleeping

I'm not sleeping. For whatever reason every night at 3 am almost on the dot I wake up. Like wide awake. This means that I can't fall back asleep either. Ugh! It makes for a very nonfunctional mommy during the day. 


It started last week when Pilot would wake up and have a party around that time for almost an hour. Now Pilot sleeps right through this time and instead of being able to at least enjoy feeling him move I just lay there trying to sleep. It wouldn't be a huge deal if I had a son that would sleep until 8am but instead I have one of those kids that sleeps super light and wakes up at the slightest sound which means when the neighbors let their dog out across the street and he starts barking and barking and barking, Rex wakes up. This all starts between 5:30 and 6:30am. I really hate that dog and I have plans to put a note on their door begging them to keep there dog quiet. If that doesn't work then I will report them because I have no patience the whole day due to this stupid dog waking up my household. If that doesn't work maybe I will just shot it. (I'm just kidding but would love if it was something that I could actually do both because it would be illegal but also because there is no way that I could actually kill a dog, mine or someone else's). 


Then once you add all the extra stress of starting your own business up and everything else that is going on in our house I really need to get it together. I don't have enough energy to get my own house clean, plan Rex's birthday party (that is next Saturday...yikes), plus because we are having it at my parents house means I have to clean their house too. Sometimes I wish life would just give me a break, let only one thing go on at a time instead of the stress of all these things at once.  


So here are my feeling about not sleeping! I need some now! Hoping my parents will take Rex overnight on Saturday so I can get extra sleep but we will see. If not I guess I will just keep going and trying everything I can to keep moving.

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
