Stars! :)
So we've started this new reward system with Anthony to try and get him to listen better. Ive created a chart with all the "chores" he's supposed to do such as brushing teeth, taking a shower, cleaning up his cars and his bedroom, reading a book with mommy or daddy things like that and when he gets it done he gets a star on his chart. Anybody have thoughts on this? So far it seems promising he's very excited about getting stars and I actaully got him into bed without having him throw a fit about it. I'm hoping it sticks cause it'll make things a lot easier while daddy is gone and its just mommy and he thinks mommy is a push over which lets face it I am. If he cries about it I don't make him do it or I let him get his way. So its my lil monster Ive created hehe and I figure he's still young enough that I can still correct this behavior before is becomes something more serious. Any thoughts and comments would be greatly welcomed :)
Back to Reality
So back to reality the honeymoon and wedding were amazing but it is now time to settle back down into the routine. My poor princess has a horrible diaper rash which is rather irritating as she's never had one before and I'm gone for 2 days and I come back and her butt is almost to the point of bleeding. I have to say Im extremely dissapointed in that hold situation.
Im about a week behind in school so I really need to buckle down and get to it or else I'll not be able to catch up and not do very well this semester. Hopefully all goes well and I can get everything done.
Dutch leaves Feb. 7th for basic and I have to say I'm a little sader than I thought Id be. I mean I knew Id miss him but I was in the Army and know the Army life but I still can't help but want to start crying when I think about him not being here. It'll be ok though 4 months and we'll be back together. Good thing is he gets to bring his cellphone and we're getting the Sprint Evo's so we can video chat and he can see the kids and we can see him it'll be nice.
Anthony's birthday is coming up quick we were planning on doing his party before Dutch left but it might have to be pushed back till his actual birthday and we'll just take Anthony ourselves somewhere to celebrate with Daddy before he leaves.
Thats about all thats new so I guess instead of blogging I should be doin school work hehe. SHhhh if you dont tell I wont either :)

My mom flew in today and I'm so glad that her flight wasn't canceled because of the snow.

3 Days!
So there's offically 3 days till the wedding and mostly everything is done. The flowers are done the cake is being picked up sunday morning. We pick up my dress tomorrow. Things seem to be pretty much in order. Today is also Dutch's bday so we're goin to dinner with his parents tomorrow. I started school again on monday thought the classes were gonna be easy. Haha they aren't but Im sure I'll live. Because of the snow in GA my mom might not be able to make it :( It really sucks but if that happens I've decided to have Anthony walk me down the aisle. He's gonna look so handsome in his outfit he's such a cute kid I know Im gonna have issues with the girls in a few years lol. Well I gotta go make a suprise for my love so I'll write more later.

But she has to be at the renewal of vows :) No choice in the matter lol If anyone knows where to buy this elusive colored sand Id be most grateful I never thought itd be so hard to find. Strike that gonna be creative and make my own lol. Well both kids are up so this is all for now.
