1. I just can't get myself to post anything else besides my weekly ten on tuesday.
2. It has been a really rough week. My body is wacko lately and it's draining me of all energy, the freeways have been a total mess on my way to work and back and the piles of laundry are just overwhelming. I have to remind myself that things could be (and have been) worse at one point and just be thankful!
3. Tyler and I went out for BBQ and for a walk on the pier and beach in Port Hueneme on Saturday for an early Valentines Day. It was very sweet and really nice to be child free for a while. A week ago he bought me some cute Etnies flats that I love and on Sunday he surprised me with flowers and a card!
4. The kids convinced me to let them go swimming after church. The pool is freezing but the hot tub is really nice. Of course they jumped into the cold pool because they're Battens. They really had a blast! I'm reminded of being at the pool every single day last summer. I love it. No sunburns for me this year since I'm more prone to getting skin cancer again...boo.
5. Tyler decided that we're old people because he has been working on his model car and I crochet and cook in the crock pot. I feel no shame, only pride in my blankets and slow cooked meals!
6. I'm so happy that mister sun has come out! The sun gives me the energy to keep on moving. I can't wait till it gets even warmer!
7. Tyler's finger got infected a couple of weeks ago and in order for the doctor to drain it, he cut his finger open with a scalpel. It pains me to think about it!
8. I'm excited to get dental insurance this week. My kids need their teeth cleaned really badly.
9. I watched the Changeling last night and I really liked it. The story is great and Angelina does a nice job acting too. I don't normally love her but in this one I really did.
10. Kayley threw a massive fit before school today because she wanted to wear her Marine Corps shirt and I had something else picked out. Other girls cry over dolls and tea cups. My daughter cries over lost camoflage covers and Eagle, Globe and Anchor shirts. Goodness gracious. Don't worry, she didn't get her way. She's six now and that aint gonna fly!
Speaking of camoflage, if anyone finds camo pants in a girls 5 or 6 please let me know! And fyi I won't pay $30 for a pair of kids pants. Heck, I won't pay $30 for my pants! I'm a deal hunter!

Changeling was way too creepy for my liking. I had to watch a happy movie after I saw it so I could sleep that night.
Kayley is so funny. If Tyler weren't in the Marines would she love those things just as much? I can't wait to see what kinds of things Peyton likes.
why don't you let the child pick out her own clothes? we all need ugly days.
i wish the sun would shine here in this God-forsaken state.
It was creepy, Kim. I woke up three times last night too!
I don't think she would love it so much if he weren't a Marine but she would love something boyish anyway.
Hillary, I do let her. I just draw the line at a marine corps shirt every single day.
she is a girl after my own heart.
