Going...Going...Going

I HATE coming home from vacation :(((. Between breaking the kids back into the school routine, unpacking, and uploading pictures I feel like I have been going NON-stop since we’ve been back. I am so ready to take off again. At least I took the semester off :)

I have also started cleaning the boys’ room today…well going through it is more like it. I swear…they have more shit than anyone. I always like to go through all their stuff after Christmas so I can make room for the new. I HAVE to do it while they are at school because they FREAK out if I get rid of ANYTHING…hmm, I wonder where they get that from :)

I watched Step Brothers with the kids yesterday and actually LOVED it. I vowed I would hate it because I am NOT a Will Ferrell fan, BUT my kids LOVE him. I think he acts the same in EVERY movie…DUMB…and he tries too hard. BUT, I have to admit, that movie was pretty funny. The dad was awesome and I loved John C. Reilly’s character. There are other movies that I have started liking because of the kids (that I couldn’t stand before)…like Little Nicky and Blades of Glory. There is just something about listening to their belly laughs and watching it through their eyes :). They also love repeating some of the scenes, such as “You love acting…I love pissing.” To hear Aspen say that is funny.

The boys shared another “rare” sweet moment this evening. They are each supposed to read for 15 minutes a night. Nicholas is a pretty good reader, but still has trouble with some of the bigger words. Blake was helping him out last night and it was so cute. He wasn’t being a total jerk to him about it like usual…he was genuinely helping him. It made my heart smile. I think it made them BOTH feel good too.

I start working out at SWAT tomorrow. I am a little nervous…I HATE being on my best behavior. But I have really come to loath my training at West Hills and I figure I should REALLY stop paying those bastards when I can train for WAY less at SWAT. Marc has owned that place for a year and a half and I have yet to make the switch. Damn, I AM stubborn ;). I am actually excited to train for three hours a week versus 30 minutes AND looking forward to having a girl trainer again. I just feel like I am going to have to walk in there EVERY time WITH a smile AND be friendly. I feel like as the boss’s wife, they will just be waiting to find a reason to talk shit about me. Ugh…this is going to be work…I am NOT known as being Mrs. Personality…when I don't want to be at least ;).

I love these pics of Nicholas as I. They were taken two years ago on a preschool field trip.
