pErSONaLitY

I took this personality test one of my friends had up on her site I was suprised(but not because it is wrong)

below are my results

You Are An ENFJ


The Giver

You strive to maintain harmony in relationships, and usually succeed.
Articulate and enthusiastic, you are good at making personal connections.
Sometimes you idealize relationships too much - and end up being let down.
You find the most energy and comfort in social situations ... where you shine.

In love, you are very protective and supporting.
However, you do need to "feel special" - and it's quite easy for you to get jealous.

At work, you are a natural leader. You can help people discover their greatest potential.
You would make a good writer, human resources director, or psychologist.

How you see yourself: Trusting, idealistic, and expressive

When other people don't get you, they see you as: Bossy, inappropriate, and loud

This is kinda cool, Try it

You Are A Green Girl

You feel most at home in a world of ideas.
You're curious and logical - and enjoy a good intellectual challenge.
You're super cool, calm, and collected. Very little tries your patience.
Your only fear? People not realizing how smart and able you are!
This is kinda cool, Try it

Costume Clue's

Let's see if you can guess the kids costumes
using the quotes provided
Jaxson's said:
"A typical vice of American politics is the avoidance of saying anything real on real issues"
"A man who is good enough to shed his blood for the country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards"
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."
"Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing. "
Liam's said:
"Imagination is more important than knowledge."
"Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character."
"The eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility."
"A person starts to live when he can live outside himself."
"The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education"
And Eme................. well Eme is going to be a fairy princess if you have any great quotes that fairy princess's have said please forward

The Price


So It has happened, yet again
I CANNOT EAT CHOCOLATE
without
heartburn
headache
& insomnia
about this time of my pregnancy this happens
the trouble is I LOVE chocolate and all the holidays are just around the bend
i am having so much trouble believing it that i still try it out almost every day,
just to make sure its still a problem
Angelo finally said to me last night:
"STOP eating chocolate you know that is what is doing this to you"
I imagine I will still try it out a couple of times this Holiday season, JuSt tO MaKe SuRE!

Friday Night Haircuts

I try to touch up the kids haircuts on Friday's
just makes their hair look clean for Sunday

This week Eme got a little flapper bang
she was having difficulty keeping her hair out of her face
(she always takes whatever clip or bow I put in it out within 5 minutes of placement)
This haircut is so cute, I love it
as if she needed to look an more angelic






The Boyz have been enjoying what we all call the Beckham haircut

The nice thing is it always looks clean and well kept
great for little boyz

So dapper

What Have We Been Doing

Well after much consideration & for many reasons
I am no longer teaching at the Montessori School.
I miss it a little
but especially after conference I thought it best to be at home teaching my own children.

It is so great to be home ALL day with my kids
they are happy to be home and I know enough now to continue there education from home.
( a much better use of my time)

So here are some things we have been doing the past 2 weeks

The boyz have been little architects
they come up with this stuff, cool huh


Making and playing with playdough


( a note: i forgot i didn't have any white flour, well i think it turned out alright with the wheat flour organic looking huh)





You may not find anything crazy exciting about this minute of our day, however
watch again think about how often 3 children play together this quietly
Nice Right

Although I know it is the right thing for me to be at home it doesn't mean it is easier

I love being at home

I have begun a couple of new traditions which have made our time at home all the better
one of which is:

I now read at least one chapter of a classic book to the boys before nap time & again before bedtime
in less than 2 weeks we have finished 2 great classic books
Little Lord Fauntleroy
&
Understood Betsy

I love that my children are being exposed to such wonderful language

Ultrasound & Big sigh of relief





We had our feared ultrasound

MY PLACENTA MOVED UP AWAY FROM MY CERVIX
HOORAY
we all took a big breath of relief
We still are going to be suprised, we did sooooo good at the ultrasound and turned our heads ( no cheating)
The baby is healthy and is definatley a BOY or a GIRL
I uploaded a little of the video so you can see our little miracle

Jaxson turns 5


Jaxsons Big Day

was crazy busy


it started with all the normal stuff; family eating cake for breakfast, singing, & presents



next school
where he did his walk around the sun, so cool





all the kids sit around the "sun" (the yellow circle) and mom brings a poster of each trip around the sun he has made in this case 5 he is starting his sixth, we talk about each year and show pictures then he takes the "earth" (the globe) on its orbit around the sun as the children sing the earth goes around the sun it takes 12 month 52 week 365 days if this doesn't make sense trust me it is really cool and helps the kids get an understanding of what a year means











next his teacher and mother tell him what they like about him I CRIED LIKE A BABY but so did Miss Ali







next we were off to MCDonalds to celebrate with the Dial crew
( they got grills in the birthday bags )

next a big soccer big soccer game ** we lost big ** oh well no one really knows or cares at this age especially the kids
