Like my feet werent big enough to begin with??

I have big feet. Like mammoth clod hoppers and they got bigger after having twins. Like they needed to get bigger?? I didnt really realize this until I tried to put my sneakers on last week. Epic fail! I wore flip flops through my entire pregnancy because I was horribly swollen so I had no idea how much they grew! I even just tried on my husbands sneakers (he was always half a size bigger than me) just to see and NOPE! I've gone up an entire size! At the moment I have on my New Balance sneakers hoping they'll be OK since they were always a bit loose. *sigh*....I have a feeling band aids are in my future for today. I will have some gnarly blisters by days end.

Charlotte has some serious eczema on her little legs. I think she's allergic to oats too. The doctor told us to use Eucerin so I got some but I made the mistake of also using the Aveeno on top of it and it made her look even more itchy and uncomfortable. Poor baby! She's congested almost 24/7. Not sure if it's the weather or a combo of dust and cat hair. I'd think if it was the cats, she'd be sneezing all the time when they're near but she doesnt react at all if they're in the room. Hell, I held her in bed with me for a little bit yesterday and our bed is COATED in fur, not a sniffle at all from her. I'm thinking it's the dust and unseasonable warm weather after all the rain. I swear, I need to dust daily to keep up! Let me tell you, this kid does not like getting her nose cleared out! You'd think I'm killing her when I use saline or the aspirator on her. Her brother likes it when you pick his nose, he thinks it's funny. Boys are weird.

John's 4 hour naps seem to be a thing of the past. He now sleeps maybe an hour. I told Barry that he needs to keep the twins on a normal schedule on the weekends even if it tortures him and screws with his plans. Shit, you mess with a baby's ritual and all hell breaks loose. I told him that. They go for a walk at noon almost everyday and nap around 2PM. If that gets interrupted, I hope you're ready to deal with 2 pissed off and very loud babies. Oy vey. Basically I get up, drink coffee, watch babies and talk to them. John gets mad first, eats a little and goes back down by 8AM. Charlotte follows soon after. She'll sleep maybe 45 minutes tops. He can go up till 10AM depending but lately that hasnt happened. Then we eat and put on the days outfit and play. Then around 11:30 they both get pissy....then I take them on a walk around noon and I take my sweet time and a pretty long route. Sometimes they sleep, other times they stay awake for the whole thing. We get in and they're both hot and cranky so we eat and put on a "cleanie" (diaper) and we nap by 2PM if we're lucky. Again, she may only go for 45 minutes. If he's really really tired. He'll stay down till like 5PM. Then daddy comes home just in time for more crankiness!!! YAY Daddy!!!

Well, no time to go into bitching about other topics today, Miss Sniffly is waking from her nap.

I will say 1 thing though. Really Southwest??? Seriously? You booted the loudest fatty on the planet and don't think this is going to create some negative press for you?? IDIOTS! Kevin Smith is one loud mofo and he will be heard whether you like it or not! Fine if you have a policy but you should have more tact for petesake! You offered him $100 voucher? Oh my sweet and fluffy lord are you all out of your minds? I take it y'all had no clue who the hell he was and just thought he was a loud fat dude. MAJOR EPIC FAIL!

Off to Zappos.com to find some new sneakers....blah.

The sun is shining, need to hit Target and watch Ellen on American Idol.......Ugh so much I need to do today...

I thought "da da" was supposed to be babies first words.....not in this house it isnt! "mom" has come out of both of them and "MOMMEEEEEEEEEE" I have heard already and my kids arent even 4 months old yet. I know all mothers say this but my kids are bloody BRILLIANT, totally and for sure.

So far today I have showered, running the dishwasher, threw in some laundry that actually wasnt baby stuff and cleaned the stove. Totally accomplished..oh and I made the bed. Hell, I didnt even get that far yesterday. The sun is out and I'd like to take the kids to Target today. We'll see. Need D batteries for the swings. His is about to shit the bed. Oh crud, forgot I need gas too. Damnit...I hate the idea of leaving the kids in the car even for a second while I pump gas. Is that mental?

Still drinking my Folgers Crystals...I find it's not as jarring if I use less crystals and more sugar and soy milk. I still get my buzz on.

Ok, took a break for a couple hours, just took the babes to Target which was very successful indeed. So, why did no one tell me that McDonalds sold iced coffee and that I could get one the size of my head for $2?? Holy crapoly this is making me happy today. It's not the best in the world but I didnt have to get out of my car and that's HUGE.

Well now both babies are overly stimulated and pissed off, trying to get them to take a nap, HA! Any minute now one of my neighbors will call social services because of the crying......whatever.

Thursday? Need it to be Friday already

So yesterday we took a very long walk, it was supposed to be "cold"...hardly, there wasnt a cloud in the sky and it was so warm I was able to take Johns socks off. After the walk, I had a grumpy boy and a sleepy Teenie. Daddy decided we had to take them to dinner. Big mistake. Mommy didnt get to eat her dinner till 10PM, after we got home and babies had baths. Remind me never to order food that will require me having to cut it when taking the babies to a restaurant. Not going to happen with twins. It's not like you can just pass off the baby to your spouse so you can eat. Nope, especially when both are awake and pissed off. Needless to say, mommy was one angry, bitter lady. Not cool when you're hungry and there's the plate in your face and you can't eat, could've stayed home and not eaten for free. John was again an excellent sleeper while Miss Thang was awake at 1AM and around 4AM for midnight snacks. I heard her babbling in her swing (yes they're still sleeping in the swings so sue me) after Daddy fed her during the 4AM shift.c Once she starts sleeping through the night like her brother, we'll all be very happy. It's nap time at the moment and I was able to squeeze in a shower before her majesty woke up needing to eat an ounce and try and sleep on the mommy for the morning. Fail. Stuck her back in her swing. She's trying very hard not to wake up and wants nothing more than to be attached to me physically 24/7 which if I had not had 2, I'd probably allow it because I'm a sucker.

Ok, onto other things today. Hoda and Kathie Lee had guys tell all today. Kathie Lee really? Showing us pictures of your husband hanging out in Victoria Secret and then telling us he wasnt interested in the models? Oh lady, really? I think you're probably a nice lady but that's really gullible. Especially remembering the past "indiscretions"....Whatever, both Kathie Lee and Hoda looked really lovely in white today and the panel of men were amusing, mainly Curtis Stone and Chuck Nice. Don't know who the other 2 dudes are but they're boring and the one author guy is rather a dick. Curtis keeps it honest and Chuck brings in the humor, they should just have those 2 doing the segments.

My complaint (ok one of my complaints) of the day...Commercials only using the same assholes all the time. I hate seeing the same people in commercials. I have a hard time believing some lady is depressed and on anti depressants while she's hocking Nintendo DS and Babybel cheese and taking Prilosec within the last hour. With all the talent and struggling actors out there, why the hell do they keep using the same 5 asshole people in commercials? I find it very annoying and kind of insulting to be honest.

Since deciding to leave my job and become a stay at home mom, I see a LOT of the news these days, way more than I ever used to. News reporters are indeed HORRIBLE, they all sound like "Asian reporter Tricia Takunawa" from Family Guy and that's a damned JOKE! There are no good news stories anymore and when there are, they're pretty lame and beaten to death. News media only wants one thing, to keep the country scared and paranoid and talk about loser celebrities. Well, I can see why that would work on some people for sure! You beat the same shit into someones head 30 times a day, it's bound to sink in. So far today I've heard the same story about 10 times now about some porn star Tiger Woods slept with ....WHY IS THIS NEWS?? Who cares that the little golfing twit slept with women who sleep around FOR MONEY? He's a pathetic loser! I had some respect for his wife for trying to kill him in the beginning but now that I heard she's staying with him, I'm overly disgusted. He couldve give her AIDS! No damned joke, he could have killed her by sleeping around and you know the only thing he's pissed about is getting caught. He was an ugly dorky little golfing kid who girls wouldnt give the time of day to and once he got rich, the (using this term loosely here) ladies decided he was "hot". My god he truly is that stupid isnt he? That or he felt he was entitled to stick it wherever he pleased because he was rich. Just horrible. Not only that but the (again, using it loosely here) ladies who he slept with? All whores and idiots! My god, women will never, ever get ahead because of that kind of shit.

Ok, I guess I should get onto my day now. Little boy needs to be woken from his nap and fed and changed while his sister is actually asleep.
