Crazy Technology

I have spent most of yesterday reading about and watch videos of the upcoming release of Adobe CS5 (c).  I get so excited about things like that.  And tonight of all nights I read about a leak in Apple's release of its 4G iPhone. So happy and yet sad about it.  Sad because I won't be able to get one because I won't qualify for the upgrade and happy because I love new technology.  If you ask my husband I can just rant for hours about the news up and coming technology for hours. Most of which is all over his head.  If you are like me and would like to hear details about up and coming technology let me know and I will share more! Off to sleep...goodnight all!

I love this stuff

As an Army wife we live in government quarters. They have these hideous hard tiled floors.  Wash with warm soap water let dry and then add a few coats of this! Your floors will look marvelous.  I have always promoted this product because it gives that just buffed shine without the buffer.

Hard Stuff

Sometimes I get very bored being a mom. This may come as a shock, but I meant when my kids are napping. I find this quiet time kind of strange. A time where I can hear myself think. That doesn't happen very often for me. The hardest thing is when there is this silence. The first thing I want to do is call someone and say come over and bring some Dunkin!! Anyone who knows me knows I love to talk and listen.

As an Army Wife I have found it difficult to make friends.  I very rarely fall into a setting where people can meet "wonderful me" and chose to be my friend.  Having three small girls has also made it difficult to say lets go knock on our neighbors door. I am all about friends...why don't I have any then?

I can't wait to see this movie.  Steve bought me the video game for my birthday. It was awesome.

These days

Gwen has changed. She started therapy here in February. She is so much stronger now. I know how felt two months ago and that is so far from my mind. I have gone threw some BIG MOMMY moments with Gwen in the last week alone. Gwen started drinking from an open cup! YAY! If you are a mom you know how big a deal that is. Gwen climbed the over the jungle jim steps all by herself (I was her spotter). Yesterday she opened a door all by herself. It has been so long that I have been waiting for these little things to become normal everyday things for Gwen.

The biggest deal was the day I let her go for a walk with her physical therapist while I stayed at the house with Isabella and Calli. I was all for it for the 30 seconds it took them to leave my sight and then full fledged panic overcame me. I could no longer see them and my mind just went off into "WHAT IF's". When they got back I told her sweet therapist that I could not deal with that again. I said next time we will all go for a walk together.

Gwen is really not the same kid she use to be. She wants to be a princess and wear a dress all day long. I asked her if she wanted to wear a pair of pants and she said okay but they needed to be PINK. I offered her a pair of "not pink" pants and her reply to me was a very attitudy "How About NO!" I have gotten that response a few times now. Gwen how about you go lay down on my bed "How About NO!" No matter the kid is the sweetest thing I've ever seen. Wouldn't change a thing.
