Bad Dreams

None of us like bad dreams. After all, they're called 'bad dreams' because...well...they're BAD!!! What makes them worse is when they're about your kids.

Last night, I had a bad dream about Justin. I was at my brothers place (not the place he lives in now, so I have no clue where he was living). My mom, sister, brother, my hubby and myself were all getting ready to go somewhere. Justin had just fallen asleep but was fussing. Everyone kept telling me "it's ok, you can leave him, he'll be fine". I did not agree and fought tooth and nail. They all kept saying "JUST LEAVE HIM. HE'LL BE FINE!!!" Within a few minutes, he was screaming and crying. He would only calm down when I walked toward him. I didn't even have to be right there with him...just moving towards him. Then, someone (not anyone that I recognized), grabbed me and dragged me out slamming the door on my screaming baby! I could hear him all the way out to the car...I was crying too. It was so terrible!!!

I woke up from that one feeling pretty crappy. :-(

Thankfully...it's not true, it never happened, and now I'll do my darndest to not ever let that happen.

On a more positive note...we got some snow last night!!! And, both kids have been sleeping for about 40 minutes. :-)

God Bless!

Joy!

Ok, now that Thanksgiving is over, I can get excited about Christmas! Who am I kidding...I've been excited about Christmas since before Thanksgiving!!! LOL I just love this time of year. The lights, the tree, the music...*sigh*

I was standing in the kitchen the other day getting a cup of coffee. Justin had just gone down for a nap, Julia was eating her lunch, and "Where Are You Christmas?" came on the radio. I don't know why, but it hit me like a ton of bricks. I just sat there staring at Julia watching her eat. She is MY daughter...almost 2 already. So beautiful, so funny, such a perfect mix of me an her dad. Julia cracks me up on a daily basis with the things she does and says. Justin is my little MAN. He's already getting so big... Weighing nearly 17lbs at his four month appointment, he's almost as big as Julia was when she turned 1! I love watching him develop and change. He's so handsome... The whole time I was thinking "I am SO blessed..." It actually brought tears to my eyes. I get so frustrated with myself sometimes because they both demand so much of my time and I feel stretched SUPER thin, so I get irritated. I really need to keep counting my blessings. There are people that can't have kids, and here I sit...BLESSED with two beautiful babies!!! They are my pride and joy. I can't wait until Christmas morning when we bring Julia down and she sees all the presents again. Last year was cute, but she'll be much more into it this year! Justin is infatuated with the tree already because of the lights, so he will probably be staring at it like a fool too! LOL

Anyways...just wanted to get some of that out!

God bless!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Yeah...it's been a while again. Just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to all in the blog world. :-)

Happy Halloween!!!

From my family to yours! Even if it is a few days late...lol

Mr. Justin as the most adorable little pumpkin ever, and Miss Julia as the cutest little monkey! Enjoy!



God bless =)
