The Situation has a situation.

The Situation is in rehab! Bet ya never saw that one coming right? It's not like he has been partying for 2 years straight or anything- oh... Wait...

MTV Announces season 6 of Jersey Shore!

It is a good day. MTV Announced that there will be a season 6 of one of the greatest shows of our time. That's right. Jersey Shore. I was kind of worried that there for a while. It will be filmed during the summer at the infamous Shore House, home of the Duck Phone. By that time Mama Snooks will be pretty far along in her pregnancy, so I am sure that will be interesting. I wonder if Jionni will be around more often and what the hell Snooki  with herself since she wont be able to drink, smoke, or go on the rides on the boardwalk. I'm pretty sure all she has Jersey Shore are things you aren't supposed to do while you are pregnant. Also, is she still going to be in that tiny little bed shoved in the corner at J-WOW's feet? That wouldn't be my first choice of accommodations while pregnant, but I suppose that might change if I was making 100,000 dollars per episode.

Music Monday

I don't understand how people can claim to hate country music... They are liars. Or just plain stupid.

They said you ain't got a prayer
A chance in you know where
But I just didn't care when I looked in your eyes
You were a long shot from the start,
An easy way to break my heart
But as perfect as you are,
You gotta risk it all sometimes

Chorus:
I believe in the underdog,
Who chases dreams and breaks down walls
The shy kids who gets the prom queen,
Whose never been the star of anything
And those two lovers hitched at city hall
They've got each other so they've got it all
Call me a dreamer or say I'm a little naive,
Oh, but I believe in the underdog

We bought a 4-room fixer up,
On the side of town where times are tough
Short on cash, but a lot on love
Yeah, we sure showed it
Then you gave me our little man
So small he fit inside my hand
Two months early, two pounds
The tallest kid in third grade now

Chorus:
I believe in the underdog, Who chases dreams and breaks down walls
The shy kids who gets the prom queen,
Whose never been the star of anything
And those two lovers who kissed at city hall
They've got each other so they've got it all
Call me a dreamer or say I'm a little naive,
Oh, but I believe in the underdog

The banks still breathing down our necks
We're still living check to check
Girl, we dig deeper everyday
We still hit our knees and pray, we pray, we pray

Chorus:
Oh, I believe in the underdog,
Who chases dreams and breaks down walls
Oh, how a guy like me could get the prom queen,
I'd never been the star of anything
We were two lovers hitched at city hall
We've got each other so we've got it all
Call me a dreamer or say I'm a little naive,
Yeah, you can call me a dreamer or say I'm a little naive,
Oh, but I believe in the underdog
Oh in the underdog
I believe
Yeah, in the underdog

Crunch time

Less than 2 weeks until we leave. It doesn't seem real. I can't wrap my head around the idea of living somewhere else. It's just weird. I'm completely overwhelmed and just want to wake up and everything be done, but that probably won't happen.
I hope we are doing the right thing. I feel like we are most of the time, but every once in a while, I just don't know. I just want Mylee to be ok. I just want US to be ok. Our parents do so much for us, but we are about to be 100% on our own. I hope we will be ok. We don't really have a choice, we HAVE to be ok. We are always ok...ish.

Happy Birthday Bradley

Yesterday was my son's first birthday. I can't believe he has been here with us for a whole year already. That doesn't seem possible. We didn't do anything big, with the moving coming up in 2 WEEKS that last thing I wanted to deal with was a birthday party. Mother of the Year, I know. But he's one. He has no idea whats going on. The small plans we did have, were slightly messed up by a ton of rain and mud. But it was still a fun time, and B got to destroy a cake of his very own.

  This is the little cake that I made B. Which I though came out pretty cute, if I do say so myself. Especially considering how horrendous it looked before I got the green on it. Luckily it was supposed to be a monster, so the fact that it was all lop-sided and weird didn't stand out so much.

He really enjoyed destroying that cake... And growling at it.

So now, my Bradley is one year old. Technically not even considered a baby anymore. He is a toddler now. He is such a sweet little dude. He smiles constantly, and has the cutest little dimples you have ever seen. He makes people smile everywhere he goes, and he is just an easy baby. He is running all over the place now, and just learned how to climb up on to the couch. He loves to wack things with drumsticks (including people's heads) He loves his sister SO much, and also working out in the yard with his RaRa (and ice cream sandwiches too). He is destructive too. He can break just about anything you put in front of him, which as you can imagine, is a good time.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LITTLE BUBBA! WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH!

Nashville News: All Systems a Go!

Our apartment will be ready April 1^st. THIS April. Like, 18 days from right now. I’m excited, happy, sad, terrified, and anxious all at the same time. This is real now! Brad even put in his 2 weeks notice at his work today. He is sad about that. He works with some great people and this is the first job he has actually liked and didn’t dread going to everyday.

I am SO looking forward to doubling the size of our home. We outgrew our current house, and it seems to just get smaller and smaller by the day. And 3 bedrooms. That is going to make my life SO much easier. Right now the kids are sharing a room, and it isn’t really working. He needs darkness to sleep, she needs a light. He wakes up the slightest sound, and she is a trasher. I’m so excited to decorate a little boy and a little girl room, as well as a room for us (for me really. Brad always just wants to get everything in black), which WILL be void of any kid crap. I MIGHT even have room to set up my cricut and other craft stuff and make some kick ass crafts that I have pinned on Pinterest. And closets! We have no closets now, and let me tell you, I never realized the importance of closets before now. But I will miss this place and all of the craziness that comes along with it. There is quite a bit of it.

So now, plan out the move and start packing. I packed park of my couponing stockpile so far… That’s about it! I have this problem, and when I feel like I have too much to do, and don’t know where to start, I just don’t do anything. I keep telling myself tomorrow, in an hour, tonight, whatever I have to tell myself to get out of it. The baby is asleep and Mylee is at school, so I should be utilizing this time, but I’m updating my blog and watching Secret Life of the American Teenager instead. I’m not sure what my next excuse will be yet. But, we really don’t have much time. Brad works during the week, and I am either driving all over dropping off and picking up all day, or home with the kids who can unpack twice as fast as I can pack. This Saturday is our little guys first birthday! So we won’t get anything done that day. I want to go to the Natural History Museum in LA in the morning, and then we will let him destroy a cake and do presents with the family. Next weekend we are going to Bakersfield to visit my family before we go, so there is another weekend day where we won’t be able to do much. The following weekend is moving weekend. Holy sweet Jesus. That will be here before I know it. We will get it done! I hope.

Brad and I are planning to leave on Sunday the 1^st, and my mom will fly out with the kids on Thursday or Friday. That will be the longest, and farthest I have ever been away from my kids and I am super nervous about that. Just mentioning that the kids will be flying in an airplane sends Brad into a panic attack, but, it is what we have to do I guess. I am looking forward to a sort of vacation with Brad. Once we move, we won’t have babysitters at our disposal, so it might be the last break we get for a while. 

So, we will be in our new home, in our new apartment by Easter. Crazy! Somewhere in the midst of all the moving stuff, I have to get Easter baskets ready! But I love Easter. It's one of my favorite holidays, so I will figure out something fun. Ugh. But this year it ill be lacking Mema's breakfast...bummer!

Cool Trick, Cool Trick! Mom Edition

I stumbled across a super tutorial on Pinterest recently, and it has been a HUGE hit with my kids! Frozen Yogurt Bites! They are healthy, and way easy. It is the only way I can get my 1 year old, who insists on feeding himself to eat yogurt. I suggest all you moms give it a whirl.

Step 1. Cookie Sheet

 Step 2. Yogurt. I had Gogurt in my refrigerator already, so I just used that, but any kid of yogurt can be used. If you use yogurt that comes in a cup, spoon it into a ziplock bag, and snip off one of the corners. Since gogurt already comes in a bag, I just snipped the corner off of that.

Step 3. Squeeze little dots of yogurt out onto the cookie sheet.

Step 4, 5, & 6. Pop the cookie sheet into the freezer for about an hour. When they are frozen, use a spatula to pop them off of the cookie sheet. Eat some, throw some in a ziplock and keep them in the freezer!
