Today's rant

What are called to do as Christians? Set an example of Gods love.
Why?
Cause he showed this to us and continues to even when we don't deserve it.
When?
Always
How?
By loving others and giving grace where needed.


This is true but not always possible right?
Right. It's hard for us humans to be perfect all the time. But we must try, try our hardest to show other love, grace, forgiveness.
With that said.
There is a certain someone who has chosen to say they are a believer but sure not setting a good example. And for those of u who aren't it sure can be a discouragement to see these who say they are and talk the talk but sure aren't walking the walk. And yes we are all human and we all sin, but if u are repeatedly trying to cause tension, friction or pain or reminders of mistakes that's not only sad but it's so the opposite of what we r supposed to do as followers.
*If you forgive others for the wrongs they do to you, your Father in heaven will forgive you. (Matthew 6:14 CEV)
*Hatred stirs up trouble; love overlooks the wrongs (proverbs 10:12)
*So I command you to love each other. (John 15:17 CEV)
*Don’t be like the people of this world, but let God change the way you think. Then you will know how to do everything that is good and pleasing to him. (Romans 12:2 CEV)


DON'T HOLD GRUDGES and don't be mean its really not becoming of u and u look foolish.
Don't waste time wasting others time.

End of my rant.

Purdging

So i am cleaning out our toys boxes and clearing out unneeded stuffed animals and things we no longer need ! I've wanted to do this for some time now but when i go to do it i can't seem to part with anything either for sentimental reasons or just cause i think we might "need" it one day. The fact is I'm taking time to reavaluate and reorganize some things in my life and this is where I'm starting is our "things"
Im only keeping a few toys the girls play with and the rest is out. Im keeping the good ol learning toys but the rest is outta here! yay! can't wait!
When I had Sarah I kinda spoiled her and wanted to my hands on every toy so when i went to the consignment stores id find toy after toy for so cheap it was hard to pass up but now that i have 3 kids and see how little they actually get played with and there r only a few favorite its time to say goodbye.
This process is not easy and no its not cause of me its cause of the kids! really it is! I have to do little by little and hide them in my room under my bed and in my closet till friday night then i can load em in my van and then hopefully sell em at the garage sale Saturday! :) yippy!

oh yeah!

So its been a few days and its going great.! 
the sleeping arrangements that is. I am happy to announce that it wasn't all peaches and cream in the beginning specially the first night but now Sophia is getting used to it. She is the only one who rebelled against the idea of new sleeping arrangements. She screamed for about 15min the first night, 10 min the next night, and 5 min the next... the funny part is she is totally fine for naps doesn't cry AT ALL! but bed time when her sis is in the room is when she screams! so i partly think it was because she doesn't want to share with her sis (kinda having that battle going) and partly cause she is like "wait why am i stuck under this thing" lol well I'm happy to say despite of all that its going wonderful and i can't even express in to words how fun it is to have my room back to myself at night and to be able to move around and when my hubby is home i don't have to tell him to roll over when he starts snoring. off subject but I LOVE his snoring! yeah i know silly crazy weird all the above. but yes I do I LOVE it. it soothes me and puts me right to sleep. (another story another time)
Well Sydney wakes a couple of time and i thought i would hate getting up and getting her but actually its nice cause i know as soon as we r done nursing i can wrap her back up and lay her back down and i get to have uninterrupted sleep and same with her. she doesn't do the "snacking" feeds anymore and mommy gets way more zzzzz's :) 
So I'm happy this is all working out for the better for us all!

First night....

So tonight is the first night of different sleeping arrangements. Sarah and Sophia are sharing a room again for now and Sydney is asleep in her own room swinging away in her swing. I have got to get this last baby sleeping through the night better and better. Hopefully less wakings.
So I put sydney to sleep first and then finished up baths with Sarah and Sophie. Then me and the girls went down waits to have some Popsicles (frozen gogurts shhhhh) and then we came up stairs to read a story and then said our prayers and tucked em in. Sophie screamed and cried for 10min! Ahhhhhhh I thought it was never gonna end! Went in and gave her back her paci and ave her a hug and she seemed to calm down and finally fell asleep. Let's home they stay that way. Lol!
I retired to my own room!!!! I haven't had my room to myself for a long time! And free to make noise and free to watch a show! It was lovely :) I put away piles of laundry and I took a long bath! And watching a silly soap called basketball wives. Now to go to sleep and hopefully not wake to many time :)

Change

So it seems it's ever changing here in our house...
So now its room swap time again. Mommy is in desperate need of some better sleep and in order to do that we gotta get Sydney sleeping in her own room. But now we have to have Sarah and Sophia share a room for a bit so I don't have 2 babies waking and wanting to be held at 2am!
We got a new bed for Sarah and she is so happy to have it. We set it up last night and it's a really tall loft bed. And sophies crib will go under it today and this way we can save play room in their room. Sarah did really great her first night. It's huge up there for her. She of course invited all her "pets" up with her and it sure looks cozy :)
So tonight will be the test to see how Syndey does in her own room and hopefully this won't take to long so I can get the two babies back together. We shall see... They both nap alot still so I feel like someone is always sleeping. Lol
Sarah 4yrs
Sophia 20month
Sydney 5 months
