YES!! I have 3 boys...

So it seems as if when I go shopping and complete strangers decide to strike up a conversation with me the first thing out of there mouth is "Wow, you have 3 boys?? "  "You must have your hands full." and then these people who I don't know will ask me "are you gonna try for that girl?" now I know that they are trying to be nice and have good intentions but did it ever occur to you that maybe I'm fine having 3 sons and if I ever decided to have another that I actually would want another son.   Having a daughter at this point scares the ever living crap outta me.

As a boy mom let me tell you all the wonderful things about these amazing healthy little boys that you may not know:)

1. A son loves his mommy and thinks she is the most beautiful mommy even when they get into trouble, and  they even love me with no makeup and my sweats on.
2. They love there little male parts from the day they are born
3. They love to pee outside
4. I am the first person they want when they don't feel good or are hurt
5. They always make sure that I'm taken care of
6. They don't like when I cry
7. They love to get dirty, scream, spit, climb, jump, and basically tear your house apart
8. I don't have to share a bathroom or my clothes with them when they get older and if I do we have way bigger problems then I thought:)

So yes they are a handful and I guess when people ask me this question I should simply reply with "Yes my hands are full but my heart is fuller and I wouldn't trade them for the world."

Friday the 13th!!

So we had a busy Friday the 13th.  Our morning started out normal and within a few hours turned into complete craziness. 

Landon had his 4 year old check up and passed it with flying colors.  His 4 year old stats are:
31 lbs & 36 inches tall.  We are all ready to start preschool and I'm hoping it goes according to plan.

Cameron is my little tank. My little chunk's stats are:
26 lbs & 32 inches tall.  Little man is quickly catching up with his brothers:)

After we left the Dr's office we decided to hit up Miguel's for lunch.  I didn't feel like unloading so we got it to go. We get home and I bite into my yummy little piece of heaven bean, rice, and cheese burrito and the phone rings?? Ugh!!  It's my grandpa who is on vacation out of state calling to let me know that their house was just broken into. But get this the peeps are still in the house with the police there!!  Crazy!!  So we load the kids and arrange to have my sister pick Ryan up from school.  We get to there house and there are police car's everywhere...  So we pull onto the street and I roll my window down to tell the police officer who I am and why I'm there...  He tells me to park and they will come get me when I am able to go inside... So we wait & wait & we wait... finally they come over to get me and have me take a look inside.  Chase's cousin who is also a police officer that lives right around the corner came over to grab the kids for us so we could take a look.  I was told by another neighbor that a girl that I went to High School with's grandma noticed a strange car and called the police:)  Thank You to Jaymi's grandma the police where there within minutes.
So this is what went down...  J's grandma and another off duty police officer notice weird car parked um hello right in front of grandparents house at 12:30 in the afternoon and call police, the police arrive and suspect is still in car, officer approaches car 20 year old guy refuses to get out, officer has him at gunpoint, Suspect #2 comes cruising outside with my grandparents flat screen TV and sees officer with gun drawn on his buddy in the car and nicely sets the TV down and flees out the back door with suspect #3... So the police set up a perimeter and take suspect #1 and car into custody:)  he snitched on his 2 buddies by the time I was allowed to leave.  So I go inside and am able to see what was stolen or rummaged through.  Luckily with the quick response from neighbors they only got away with some of my grandma's jewelry that wasn't too valuable and the TV that the guy left at the front door. They had to be some of the dumbest robbers ever:)  So the police got the 3 thief's and the thief's got nothing.  Chase hooked the TV back up and closed the window they popped open and replaced the screen.

We then finished off the rest of our crazy day with a little Chuck e Cheese chaos...

Back to School....

Ryan started school today. My oldest child is now a 1st grader... sniff sniff... We started our week off with an appointment to get his staples removed and a 1st grade physical. We had his 3 staples removed and 3 immunizations later we were on our way. My 6 year old weighed in at a whopping 51lbs and 48 inches tall:) So weird that when he was born he was 8lbs 3 oz 20 inches long and now look at him. It goes by so fast:(

Tuesday was our day that we purchased last minute school supplies, had a little Taco Tuesday at El Torito, and of course got a last minute haircut while telling me exactly what he was going to wear. I miss the days of being able to pick out his clothes. My son has a very unique style and I try really hard to pick my battles but when he comes in with a Hurley shirt, black striped pants, and throws his Dodger Jersey on top I have a very hard time keeping my mouth shut.

Wednesday morning came way to early... I like to have his stuff prepared and ready to go just like my mom used to do. We had his lunch packed and ready in the fridge, his clothes laid out, and his backpack sitting by the front door. This saves us from a huge fight on where he "thinks" he left his shoes at 6 in the morning. While he was getting dressed I made him the breakfast of champions... A strawberry Pop Tart at his request with a vitamin and glass of milk, he was so excited he couldn't eat so we went ahead and left. I pulled into the school parking lot and found a spot up close... Yes I am the mom who drives a Suburban and feels that most rules don't apply to me:) anyways back on topic we head to room G1 and while we wait he starts seeing a bunch of his Kindergarten friends, and then here comes his adorable (young) teacher:) You see I'm a younger mom and I feel like I'm treated diffrently because I have 3 small children and look like the babysitter. The even better part, she is a nice, young teacher... SCORE!! I walked him inside, put his name tag on and he told me see you later!! 6 hours later I picked my little stud up and he couldn't tell me enough about his new friends, and how HUGE the playground was:)

After our already eventful day we had our first Pony Baseball practice. Ryan was a tad bit apprehensive about going but had a blast while we were there. Talk about an awesome group of parents and coach!! Ryan is one of the younger players on the team but I think he will learn quite a bit from some of the older players. Chase was pretty bummed out that he wasn't able to make his first practice:( Chase is working out of town about 5 hours away for work right now and the hardest part for him is being away from us:) Luckily for me I was volunteered by my son to be Team Mom, this was after he announced to everyone that his mom didn't need to buy a egg protector because he was already wearing one... That kid I tell ya:) So I am the Team Mom for the get this name "Iron Pigs"?? I was kind of like huh?? at first but it's growing on me.... The colors for our team are Red, Silver, and White.

So that was our eventful first day of school and now it's midnight and I'm going to bed...

Update... Finally...

So it has been 3 months since I blogged last. It is now August and the Summer is almost over. Here is a little recap with what my little family has been up to these last few months.

Ryan has officially graduated Kindergarten and will be starting first grade next week. Am I the only person who remember's when school started the week after labor day?? We survived our first season of baseball as Team Mom, Assistant Coach, Player, and Fan club. Ryan will be starting Pony Winterball in the next few weeks and I am so excited that all of his games will be on Sunday. We also did our 2nd trip to the ER this week. The thing about having 3 sons is they are wild and rambunctious. They find it funny to hit and torture one another. Well Landon thought it would be oh so funny to pull Ryan's leg while he was trying to climb into his bed. Wanna know what happens next?? Yep 3 staples in the back of the head from where Ryan's head and the most unforgiving part of the wall met:( Thank goodness for insurance we use it quite a bit.

Next up is Landon... Where do I begin with Landon?? We made a trip with him to the ER a few weeks ago because Ryan stuck a Q tip to far into his ear and it was bleeding. I freaked and rushed him to the ER thinking that his ear drum was ruptured. Luckily the ear canal was scratched and only required some ointment. Landon will be starting preschool in the next few weeks so that should be an adventure with I'm sure many blog worthy stories. Only one more year and I will have 2 in baseball.

Baby Cameron is my little breathe of fresh air. I scored with this child:) My kids have all been awesome but Cam is my easiest. The child is happy from the time he wakes up until he goes to bed. It amazes me how in a little over a year and a half how independent and smart they are. I love watching him blossom into this little person amazed at every little thing in this world. The downsize of my 30lb bundle of joy?? Cam is a hitter, screamer, and thrower. You know the people sitting at the table with the 3 kids and you don't want to be seated near them??? Yep that would be me and my family:) We are banned from restuarants until Cameron becomes how can I put this?? More civilized...

So you probaby wonder why I have no pictures on my blog... well it is easy I suck:) just kidding but really I can not find my cable that plugs into my computer and so I am cannot upload pics of my adorable children. Trust me if I could you would be like okay enough already. You may ask yourself why don't you buy another cable?? The truth is I want a DSLR camera... I love to read all the blogs with gorgeous pics of their kiddos... The problem trying to convince my husband that I "need" said camera. I'm working on it I just need him to also think we need this camera:)

That is it for now... I promise I will try and be a better blogger but I love to blog stalk much more:)
