Feel for me and read the WHOLE thing.

Well you know when you are just so happy that a certain week of your life is over, done with and hopefully will not be revisiting any time too soon??? Well that was this week. Monday morning I woke up with the FLU! Well, i was miserable, but knew that that didn't matter i had a household to run. Well probably being a mom and not being able to fall asleep prolonged my getting better! Wednesday morning it hit me the worst, and as Jason said goodbye to me i honestly thought " i truly do not know how i am going to get out of this bed and move one foot in front of the other. Well, that is when i heard two little chirps on the monitor becknoning their mama for food. So, i knew it was time. Alexis was already at my bed asking me to turn Dora on, and get her juice. I stood up and I do not know how i did not faint right then and there. I really thought i better haul it the nearest phone so i have someone on the line in case i pass out. So i grab the phone and tell jason he MUST come right home, and in all seriousness said that he absolutely could not miss this meeting. He called my dad to come immediately. My dad got there within in probably 13 minutes and he really took over. AS i was talking to Jason i was throwing up in the sink and my whole body was tingling. Not cold chills, tingles. My face and lips were white. I felt HORRID! I sat on the couch and just ignored the wails, that changed from chirps! I was searching for numbers of friends in my head who would be willing to come and take the babies for me to their house because i KNEW i had no way to do it at that moment. I kinda panicked. Well for some reason after like 5 minutes of sitting on the couch, i was able to stand up and make bottles to go rescue my baby boyfriends. I sat on my bed in my garms feeding them, as dad comes up the stairs and asks "Are you decent?" I grabbed a pillow and hid behind it. He sat down and offered to do whatever i needed. I got to lay them back down shortly after and he went downstairs with his "best friend" and kept serving me juice and oatmeal. I slept for a couple hours and Jason got home. Honestly, what would i do without my dad???? I would be really sad, and hungry!!!! What would Alexis do without my dad? Probably be really bored and hungry! Later that day, i actually started turning a corner. I now believe the old adage, "it has to get worse before it gets better". Later that day, jason said he felt like crap so he found out he now had a fever and had it until yesterday. today he has felt a little better. The hard part is that i REALLY needed some recoup time, but that didn't happen. All day i have needed a real nap, not a 30 minuter, but kids didn't quite see the same need for me. THANKFULLY, mom and dad came over last night and helped me do the dishes that were there since probably Tuesday morning. Mom bathed all the kids and fed them and "GOODNIGHT TO THEM"!. Honestly, I will say this, and Jason ALWAYS says this "Your parents are the most selfless people i have ever met, they are ALWAYS doing stuff for others". It is true, it is so true, that they NEVER even get a night to themselves with their callings and such and they Always come babysit for us to go out on Friday nights. Mom and dad, you ROCK!! Dad also took Alexis the whole day on Wednesday until 7 p.m.
Alexis had this bug for like 24 houra, however i think she is still battling a little bit everyday. I just don't want the boys to get it. Matthew needs a helmet, BADLY! I had an appointment everyday this week and every morning i called to cancel it. Even today. Literally, i can't believe that office kept rescheduling me.
ON A SIDE NOTE... If CPS saw my bedroom, all children would be promptly removed by sunrise! At least i know my parents would take them long enough for me to clean it! So, cabin fever is really at its peak right now. Jason and I are really irritable with each other, he left to get food and i told him i didn't care if he went and saw 5o movies, i told him he was causing me more stress, becuase he was so stressed. Then i took alexis to get some pizza. Is it really conference weekend? Really, i don't know? if it is watch out neighbors becuase it might get really loud over here! We are always talking about needing to give each other one hour a night to unwind and have NO interruptions and on Saturdays too. We never do it. Honestly, having twins really isn't that hard, it is just busy, and a little busy body three year old who wants to play makes it more busy. I WOULD NEVER TRADE THIS IN A MILLION YEARS, just so you all know!
Well I will say this. I deserve to brag a little. This is MY blog. I now weigh 5 lbs less than what i did when I started my pregnancy, and I haven't worked out once. I say this because i want you to know it is due to ONE THING. STAIRS. I must go up and down my stairs 200 times a day. I am sure you all probably do the same thing, but i really think that my unorganized life makes me do double the trips you do. I go up and down stairs so often that my legs don't hurt they are just soooooo tired, it's like they are saying "hey remember us, give us a break(no pun intended), shave us, tan us, at least put some lotion on us." Now that i am writing this, what i should do is put some leg weights on and then i would probably get some "Kickin" legs for the beachtrip!
Back to the unorganized house and CPS, I occasionally read this girl Annemarie's blog and she is an organize queen so i was inspired to go to the dollar store and buy like 40 containers to start organizing my junk, so the reason my bedroom is in shambles is because i cleared out every drawer, D.I'd my closet, got rid of shoes, and not to mention just last Saturday i washed 8 loads of laundry and hadn't folded ANY of it. So imagine my room. I am tempted to take a picture of my room and put it on here. YOU WOULD DIE! i don't know how we don't trip and die every single night, but honestly there has been NOOOOOOOOO choice. Oh yeah, i forgot to mention that if i bend over the slightest bit, it feels like when you dive into a pool and the pressure could make your head explode that is why i haven't done that. My mom wanted to come help more, but honestly I knew she would get sick if she was in this infested home!
Well during this i did manage to have a mini photo shoot with the boys. WHy? Well becausea the guilt was eating me up! Dori, Jason's awesome mom recently gave me some stuff that jason wore when he was a baby. So for forever now, i have been meaning to get their pictures taken in all of it. Well they are usually in sleepers that don't match the clothing so i kept putting it off. Well there heads are getting so big that time was of the essence. THERE was NO MORE DELAYING. you will see how "not quite right" they already look. Oh well, it is done. that is ALL i care about. I figured it was probably better squeezing these little big heads in them rather than an 8 yr old BIG head in them. Have at it. Mitchie's head is still tinyier than Matty's(a sometimes nickname) head, so his turned out a little better. anyway, the prolonged pictures, just more guilt to add in my already full guilt bucket. oh well!

man , i talk to much.

This is cute, even if the hat is a little tight!!

Matthew, hat not on right.

Mitchie, These turned out the best.

"mom, at least sit me up straight, and button the sweater"

"mom, your making us look like dweebs"!

(matthew) "take a hint mom"

Do we believe in the KKK?

Dori, i now this was not how it was supposed to look, i was just desperate to say i "got the picture"

Mitchie sportin the KKK hat, which actually has the neatest story with it. I will one day post the story behind this old handkie.

Jason's sweater and hat

"mom, take some pride in these pictures please"
