Whats that floating in the bathtub?

Another eventful night in our house. During bath tonight Zachy had diarrhea in the tub. SO nasty! I am not sure there is anything more disgusting. Especially when you have 3 clean boys in there...and you have to start all over. Well we eventually gotall the boys clean and dressed and smelling fresh...lol.

This weekend has been so nice. It's been nice to be here all together. Only one more day then Jim is back to New York. Myself and the boys are here until we move. I hate that word-MOVE...ugh who wants to do all that? As excited as I am to be there all together in the same State, I dread starting over again. But I know that it will all be so worth it.

Tomorrow we should find out if we definitly got our house. I am so nervous. We are being cautiously optimistic. So stay tuned.

I have been trying to learn more about blogging and I really want to get into doing product reviews. I just don't know where to get started??? If anyone has any advice i would greatly appreciate it.

More Later!

Risks

So there are 2 houses that we have narrowed our search down too. Both of which after we looked at them received other offers. Both offers were contingent so we still had a chance to offer. The problem was that once we picked one then the other one was done. So we thought long and hard and went with my house (I love my hubby!). So we put in our offer today and they accepted. Yeah...no yet! We still have to wait now for the original buyers because they get 48 to remove the contingency. So we will see what happens. Very very stressful!

Today was a very fun day. We were outside for most of the day. After not being here for 2 months there was a lot of yard work to do. Hubby cut grass and trimmed and I pulled weeds (By far one of my least fav domestic duty next to ironing). The kids played all day which was really fun.

This morning when everyone woke up we were in our bedroom and talking about what the kids wanted for breakfast. Jasmine our dog was laying on Jim. We call Jasmine Mini a lot. So as the breakfast conversation was in full force Ryan is saying he wants "R" cereal(Reeses Puffs), Zachy is saying me too! Cameron yells out "Jasmine can have "Mini Wheats". We just all started laughing it was so cute and funny. Mini wheats for Mini! So Cute!

Ok more later! Wish us luck with the house!

Home Sweet Home

We made it! We are officially home in Florida! It only took 20 hours in the car. When we went to Ohio it took 16 hours. This time we had bad weather. It was long but we made it and its weird to say that I am so happy to be home. I didn't think we would come back home at all. I expected to be moving to Rochester by now but that is not the case. So here we are at home hopefully only for a month or 2 until we buy a house. Oh yes which house...still not sure. All that is still being worked out. So annoying!

It was so great today we when pulled in the driveway to see the boys faces light up. They were so happy to be home. They ran inside and ran straight to their rooms and were calling us saying Mommy, Daddy come look at my room. They showed us all their toys that have been here waiting for them. It was so cute. Honestly, it was better then Christmas morning. It was great!

So here I am back to my routine, kids in bed, on my laptop, watching my stupid non-intellectual shows such as Real World. I freakin' love it!

My house is a wreak and toys are everywhere but I am glad to be here. I am glad for my time in Ohio with friends and family but so glad to be HOME!!!

More Later.

Going Home~Where that is at this point I don't know!

We are headed back to Florida in the next couple days. As much as I loved being in Ohio for the holidays and with our family, we need to go home. We have stayed at our friends house, my cousins house, my in-laws house, hotel....we are done and ready for home. Everytime my son sees us packing up he says "Where we going now Daddy?" They are so excited to get back to their toys and their rooms. And now that we are getting closer to the big move to Rochester, New York, I have a lot of packing and organizing to do. We have not picked a house yet. We are trying to decide between 3 of them. We are like the show House Hunters, will the couple choose house #1 exactly what they want, no backyard(Where will we play?), reasonable price or,
house #2 exactly what they want, 8 acres land(who will take care of it?), reasonable price or,
house #3 exactly what they want(and then some, sorry I am biased this is my choice), 1 acre yard, higher price

Stay tuned to find out!
Okay I gotta run wish us luck on our road trip.
More Later!

Funny People

Yesterday when my hubby and I were driving from Ohio to New York we noticed something very cute and funny. This van in front of us had a rack on the back that was loaded down with about 8 plastic storage totes. Hubby and I, being the travelers that we are were talking about what a good idea that is. If you could of only seen my van when we drove from Florida to Ohio back in November for our 2 month stay. 3 boys, 2 dogs, 1 cat, 1 hamster, and all the things we would need for 2 months. Imagine all of that in the car for 16 straight hours! So we thought this little rack idea with the totes was the smartest little idea. As we got closer to the van with the totes we noticed they were tied down with bungee cords and duck tape. And to top it off there was something written on the duck tape..."Redneck Luggage Carrier"! I love it! I just love that someone took the time A) to think of that and B) to write it on there, knowing someone would get a laugh out of it. It worked!

And the journey begins...

Well, the hubby and I are in Rochester, NY to look at houses. We looked at one today and will look at more tomorrow. The home today was very nice. It was on 5 acres...of grass! We want some land but 5 acres of grass to cut sounds like and looks like A LOT OF WORK! So we will see what tomorrow brings. There is one house that I cannot wait to see. Looking at houses in a new town, new state even is difficult and exciting at the same time.

The boys are at my cousins and having a blast.

I figured I would try to catch up a bit on my blogging. I really want to get more into it. I need to figure out twitter. I signed up for it but have not used it yet. The bloggy world is exciting!

Okay back to learning! More later, wish me luck in finding a house!

Where has the time gone?

I can't believe it has been a month almost since my last post. Time flies when you're having fun. I cant believe how busy we have been. We are still hanging in Ohio for the holidays. I cannot express how excited I am that my boys get to have a Christmas here. They are so excited.

Okay well I will post more later. I am working on learning more about blogging...its so overwhelming.
