*sigh*

Why do my girls...ok...mostly Madison...feel the need for me to entertain her all the time? I get this constant..."mum, what are we doing? What are we going to do?" It is annoying sometimes. Monday they had girl scouts and I had to laugh. Total side note...they both have Girl Scouts on the same day...Madison is at 4:30-5:30 and Hannah's 5:45-6:45....ANNOYING! People are like...oh how nice...it's done in one day. Are these people serious...try having to entertain 2, 2 and under for nearly 3 hours...not fun. Especially on a base that has pretty much everything closed on Mondays!!! Back to my story...so they are sitting in a circle and each one sharing what they did that weekend. I loved Hannah's answer..."we just sat around my house and watched TVs because mom was not in the mood to go anywhere." I love that kid!

Back to the base thing...so I hear Air Force bases are nicer...ok....so not the case here. I feel like the things we have available here are very limited...okay....so we're overseas. Now they have the post office on the main base closed Mondays, Wednesdays and Sundays (I get Sundays.) AND, we can't pick up packages on Mondays anymore AND not until 12 and they close at 4...minus I think today they are open until 6. I just don't get it. They are there anyway...why can't they be open?! I've kind of had it...I like living here...I'm just not liking the hours and how things are like closed and how it's so hard to get a doctor appointment....I know...I'm complaining...but this is my blog. Unfortunately I have to call the appointment line tomorrow. Abs has had this nasty rash in the diaper region and it's just not getting any better. Oh how I dread that call tomorrow morning.

In other news...the girls are doing well in Judo. They are going to be testing next week. I didn't think they were going to be ready but they are.

And Hannah is beyond excited to go to riding lessons tomorrow. She gets to canter by herself. She's doing really well. Madison was doing well until last week when I heard her name being called quite a bit to trot correctly. She apparently doesn't want to canter...it just looks too fast. I think she was just being LAZY and not wanting to trot last week. She's silly sometimes...and not the funny kind.

And Bells...she is now going Wednesday to school as well. I have to admit it was nice to have just one kid. Oh how I look back and think how easy it was with just 1...even 2 kids....

Abs...she is being a booger. The girl is sleeping even less and waking up more during the night. Like today, she was up 4 times last night and woke up at 630 and took maybe a 20 minute nap during the entire day. I was sure she was going to fall asleep in the car when we went to go pick up the girls but she was awake...and it's 8:11 and she's still not asleep. I had to laugh to myself when someone who stopped by said, "well, I hope you get some rest." I have just come to the conclusion I will not be able to get a full rest until I'm 6 feet under the ground. And so I will trudge along with little sleep and keep my head looking up...I just read that talk. It was just what I needed....especially after the night before with a baby who cried for 2.5 hours...she stopped as soon as I picked her up and cried as soon as I put her down.
