5 years....

I can't believe it's already been 5 years....and I haven't started drinking yet. I kid. I joke. Kind of.

I still have to pinch myself to make sure its not a dream, but lucky for me its not. He's real. Our love is real. And its stronger than ever. I'm so romantic....feel free to dry heave from all my lovesick mumbo jumbo.

I can't even begin to express what the last 5 years have been like with him at my side. Amazing doesn't even begin to cover it! So I'll try and express what I feel through this interpretive dance I recorded....HA! Yeah right.

You'll just have to take my word for it just how wonderful he is and just how perfect life has been since he's been here to share it with...

{5 years down...an eternity to go...}

Well, I'd better go shave my legs now. He deserves that much after 5 years of marriage!!

Happy Anniversary Mr.Cline.....I love you...

I'm here...I'm alive...and I flippin' love you.

To say that the last 3 weeks have been consuming would be an understatement. They've been INSANE. I've wanted to badly to pop on here and write down what's been going on, but I just didn't know where to even start....so I'll try by starting here...

I've always been candid with the struggles our Boogie faces. We've had amazing doctors and therapists along the way and we've seen tremendous progress. He is a happy, loving, carefree little boy and everyone that meets him is just smitten with him. But...I knew there was something wrong. We've known for some time that he has sensory integration disorder as well as oral motor issues and developmental delays. We've been pro-active on getting him the help he needs. But...I just knew there was something more.

Call it a gut feeling, mother's intuition, a spiritual prompting...whatever...but I had it. Nagging at the back of my mind, unwilling to be stifled. I was beginning to feel like the crazy mom that takes their child to the doctor every time they fart the wrong way. I was afraid they would brush me off....but we took him back to the doctor anyway. I had to know if there was something more, something we were missing.

Observations were made, tests were done, and finally....finally....the answers are coming in. There was, or should I say IS, indeed something more. Something we were missing. We've yet to get back all of the lab results but we have a starting point. Some of the results we have gotten back so far have given us a lot of the information we were missing. Hopefully the rest of the results come back by next week. The pieces are starting to come together and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The last 3 weeks have been filled with stress, tears, worry, and more stress. I am beyond ready to move on and move forward.

So now that life is settling down and we're able to get all of our chillins and babies the things they need, we can get back to basics around here!! So let me begin by saying

YOU GUYS ROCK!!

Thanks for all the comments, emails, tweets, and love you've all sent. I can't wait to get back into the swing of posting and catching up with you. AND since we've got some new friends reading I've decided to do a little giveaway and post up a little summin summin for you guys! Check back later this week for that! Until then...

HAPPY MONDAY AMIGOS!!

I'm off to go spend President's Day by doing my part to stimulate the economy :)

Umm....Thanks Mom....I think....

So....my mom got me some Valentine's Day place mats for the kids.... yeah

Normally, I'd be super excited about it, but these place mats are a little different. There's just something "off" about them.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who sees it. Go on, take a peek.....

DO YOU SEE IT???

My place mats have BOOBS!

Big ol' knockers staring right at you!

I keep trying to tell myself that they're cute place mats and that no one else will notice, but every time I walk by my kitchen table all I see are BOOBS! Jugs and congo bongos everywhere! It's kinda creeping me out.

So thanks Mom for the, um, adorable place mats. You're the breast! I mean BEST!

You are my sunshine...

My only Sunshine!

Sweet mother of Abraham Lincoln, can I just tell you how freakin' happy I am to look outside and see the SUN SHINING! Glorious!!

I was coming down with a bad case of the Winter blues, but this warm(er) weather has definitely been a pick me up today. I even went ahead and dusted off the ol' flip flops! My little tootsies can breathe again! And it looks like I'm not the only one who's had a little bit of cabin fever. The kids are DYING to play outside. Apparently trips to Target aren't 'fun' anymore....pffftt....So it looks like we'll be making some park trips this week.

But I have a confession...its kind of a big one. I'm not really a big fan of going to the park!! I'd rather stay home in the back yard and use the swing set for kids. Am I lazy or what? I know, mother of the year right here. But its true. I'm not crazy about chasing Little Miss Presley all over the play structure so she doesn't plunge 30 ft to the ground....I don't exactly love pushing Boogie in the swings until my arms are going to fall off. I'M HORRIBLE! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE to see my kids have fun....but...I know...Hey, I still take them, and at least I'm honest about it. I still think Target is way more fun though. Plus they have popcorn at Target....BONUS!

Have an awesome week amigos!! I'm off to go bask in the sunlight!!

And go to the park...
