Today has been a very sleepy day in our house, Hubby left for work at 7am like always and LO stayed in bed till 8am. I brought him into our bed and gave him his milk and dry cereal and I curled back up and fell back asleep while he watched spongebob! Boy what would i do with out the cartoons he loves? LOL. He woke me up maybe 45 mins later needing to go potty! He went and as did I, and we both just layed there in bed and watched tv. We both went back to sleep around 1pm and woke up around 3pm. ( I love sleepy days) Again awake we eat some lunch/dinner and just spend time together! He now has mommy and daddys room destroyed from playing with my shoes, and his toys! It is now almost 8pm and Daddy just walked in the door, Almost bedtime for LO. Daddy gets the honor of giving him a bath and putting him to bed tonight because I have been battling a PMS headache ALL day! :(
The Joys of womanhood! haha. Oh well! Hopefully in the next year we can TTC again and I wont have to worry about BC or PMS for awhile! Thats another reason I want another baby. And I am looking forward to a VBAC and Breastfeeding a baby again.! Is it bad that I constantly think about another baby because i want to breastfeed again!? I just miss it so much! If i could relactate now I would but Hubby wants me on BC so it makes it impossible to get my full supply going again!.
Also. I have a question for you all: Is it okay to start Breastfeeding your LO #1 again after LO#2 is born? Has anyone ever done this and succeeded? Tandum breastfeed a (going to be almost 3 if we try again soon) and a newborn? After not breastfeeding the LO#1 for almost 2 years?

Mami And Papis Gift Certificate Giveaway!
I found this great site called Mami's & Papi's that has some awesome family morals and amazing customer service and best of all Free shipping ANYWHERE! Mami's & Papi's is a christian family, Papi is an active duty member of the USA military and Mami is a WAHM of 3 (maybe 4 kids soon)! I contacted Mami's & Papi's to see if they were willing to sponsor a giveaway and they said yes. They have so graciously offered $10 store credit to one lucky person! Now I don't know about you but that $10 would be great toward a purchase of a diaper, some Rockin Green soap or so many other things that they carry in their shop!
A little about the family:
We are a truly blessed husband and wife team raising three wonderful children. "Papi" is a 13 year active duty member of our amazing United States Military. He was raised in San Antonio, Texas and joined the United States Marine Corps straight out of high school. He is an AMAZING father and faithful, loving husband
"Mami" is the glue that holds the whole thing from falling apart. She was raised a little of everywhere but her home is Mayfield, Kentucky. She's a "farm" girl who knows the value of hard work and dedication. After high school, college, and working outside the home she knew that all she wanted to be was a mother and a great wife!!
A little about the store:
Why start "Mami's & Papi's" ?
"Papi" was recently injured during military training and it "shook up" the reality that we needed to be financially secure and ready for the future. Military retirement is less than seven years away and we want to prepare NOW. We wanted to create something we love and believe in and that we could pass to our children. We also wanted to create a job that would allow "Papi" to work daily with his injury. Our love for Eco-friendly items, frugalness, and family led us to create "Mami's & Papi's" cloth diapering resource & MORE.
Our children... Allysium (8), Antonio (4), and Alejandro (3 months) are our reason for setting long term goals. We want them to learn the value of hard work and respect for others.
We are a christian family, military family, and hard-working family! We hope "Mami's & Papi's shows this in every way. Our website is very simple and we have chosen it to be this way. Instead of paying for graphics and "fancy" we are using that money to bring in more inventory and keep prices low. We know families do not have a lot of time with working, school, and other daily activities. We want you to be able to find what you need, get the resources to make great choices, and have an easy purchase transaction.
We may not be "flashy" but we will give you our very best customer service and use our time the wisest way possible.
We hope you come back and send your family and friends our way.
With much appreciation...........

The Past week
This past week has been nothing but STRESS! I am very down right now because I found out that I may not be starting college this fall due to some communication errors with the school on deadlines! I am very upset because i feel like i deserve this because i stay at home with my darling son, don't get me wrong i LOVE it and i LOVE my son but i never get mommy time and I feel like i need my mommy time. Unlike many I want my mommy time to be bettering my education! Unfortunately I lack the the $1200 dollars to start until my financial aid kicks in, in 2 weeks! They will refund me the money once the financial aid does get finished processing, and if i cant get the money which there's NO way possible that i will come up with that kind of money as a SAHM, I can wait and take the late start classes but there is no guarantee that there will be any openings. This is the cause for my stress and slight depression. On a better note I always have my son to brighten my days! Any advice from you mamas who struggle with going back to school and or getting your mommy "Me" time? Because I know I do! Thanks for letting me rant! I really needed it!
My favorite 2 men in my life!

Been Sick and The new addition to our world
So My son and myself have been sick this past week and a half and Let me tell you, it has sucked. He had to go to his Nana's till i got the energy to care for him like he needed to be taken care of. We are both still sick with a runny and stuffy nose which trying to catch him to wipe away the boogies is oh so much fun! Now his poor Nana is sick with the same thing we had. So now she is getting the R&R she needs.
