Just working on my fitness....



I'm not sure what it is about seeing a bathing suit hanging on the racks of Target that makes me want to go run 10 miles....but IT DOES!

And that's exactly what I've been doing lately! It seems that somewhere in the last 2 months I lost the remaining shred of sanity that I had, and I decided to take up running. You read that right...I DECIDED and no one was even holding a gun to my head. Crazy. I know.

And just to make sure I stuck with it...I signed up to run a 1/2 marathon with a few of my favorite girlfriends. 13 effing miles!! It sounded like a good idea at the time...like I said....sanity...out the motherlovin' window.

My body hurts, my ankle is killing me, I'm constantly tired, and I LOVE IT! Don't get me wrong though...it took me a while to love it. The first run I did I thought I was going to puke, pass out, have a heart attack or D-all of the above. By the time I got home I was so delirious that Jordan had to wave funfetti cake under my nose just to snap me back to reality.

{Now you wouldn't believe me if I told you, but I could run like the wind blows}

But dude, I'm a MACHINE now! Ok, well not really a machine...but I can run and hold a conversation at the same time. TOOT TOOT! I've even been waking up at 5:30 every morning and going to the gym. That was tough for me, being the insomniac that I am, but now I can't imagine NOT going! Ughhh....I sound so....healthy. Feel free to gag and shove a twinkie down my throat.

BUT, I have to say, I love seeing changes...it feels flippin awesome. We should celebrate and eat some cake! Rice cake that is. We'll save the real cake for April 30th, after I make those 13 miles my biznatchel!! Until then....

HAPPY MONDAY LONG LOST AMIGOS!!

Eat some cake for me!!

Oh did I forget to tell you??

That we went to San Diego...

Without the kids....

And had the best friggin' time ever???

Ooops...because we did.

We spent 4 glorious days celebrating our anniversary and it was just what the doctor ordered. While the kids were being spoiled rotten by Grandma and Grandpa, we were busy bow chicka bow wow living it up!

This was our first trip to SD together and it was a blast! It was bizarre being able to pick up and go wherever we wanted to and not have to worry about taking enough snacks to feed a small army or diapers or juice cups or nap times...you get the drift.

We checked out tons of incredible museums, amazing restaurants, shopped....and shopped some more..and most of all we RELAXED!!!! I slept in until NINE AM!!! I'm pretty sure I haven't slept in that late since 2003. No joke.

Here, take a sneak peak at our Lovefest 2011 Cline Style...

{The US Grant....money money money...}



{I kicked his trash at checkers! WINNING!}



{Checking out Balboa Parks Spanish Village...Muy bonito!}



{Breakfast in bed?? Don't mind if I do!! nom nom nom}



{My hunk of manmeat checking out the submarines...rawr}


{Que Kenny Loggin's Danger Zone....}


Man, I need another vacation already!! The ONLY thing I'm bummed about is that I didn't get to meet up with my boo, Surferwife. *tear* But I guess that means I have to take ANOTHER trip back down! WORD!

So there you have it amigos...my Lovefest 2011. Amazing. You know what else was amazing?? Coming home to MY TOILET!! Oh sweet mother of pearl, I think I missed my toilet more than my kids...but don't get me wrong, I did miss the kids too. A lot...ok maybe a little...well...kind of.


Happy Wednesday Amigos!!

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!
