So as Katie and I were watching Evan and Cassie (both 1), we turn around and Trey and Tanner were knee deep in the "river". Katie and I both looked at each other and wondered What do we do now? and well, they won. They both thought it was a blast and we let them get muddy and nasty and THEY LOVED IT. They climbed a mountain and swam in a river. To Katie and I they made a mess and we knew our cleaning job was coming up. But so what, how many times have you climbed a mountain and swam in a river in Berkley?!

its just mud.....
On Mothers Day my Aunt Nancy wasn't feeling good- we all thought she had a kidney stone but she is still waiting to find out whats going on. I have had a few myself and it is true, it is worse than giving birth. So Cassie Tanner and I went to her house to drop off some marshmellow root and a smoothie and Trey and Evan were there too. Katie is my cousin and those are her boys. Tanner and Trey are only weeks apart in age and they are the adorable together. Tanner is a lil shorty and Trey's vocabulary is amazing but they are just the cutest buddies together. We went to the park and they tore down a school so lots of dirt piles and mud but Trey and Tanner think they were climbing on the mountains.

Ugh is the only way I can start off this one.
Did I ever mention how happy I am or how great my husband and kids are?! yes, I will answer my own question. Most of these blogs are ways to remember the amazing moments that I can pass on and to keep some friends and family update with whats up at the Perry/Chambers homestead. But ya know what?! (not sure why I keep asking YOU questions) Sometime life just kicks my ass. For real. Today made my head spin. I thought I knew what the meaning of running but standing still meant but I was wrong. NOW I KNOW. And actually while I am on the subject of things I know, the older I get the less I know. Isn't it supposed to be opposite? Don't you get wiser with age?! Well I had everything figured out when I was 16 and somehow the knowledge has been sucked outta my brain. Did my kids take it? Did my hippie days in zona catch up with me? so many questions I have. SEE what I mean?!
I know I should put on my big girl panties and quit bitchin but its my blog and I will cry if I want to, cry if I want to. You would-whatever, you know what I mean.
It's just so much work being an adult. Sometimes when Tristen complains about homework or having to clean his room I think OMG I wish I had those kinda problems. But to him having to spend 15 minutes on his math when its 65 degree's outside and his friend wanna play hockey, ITS DEVASTATING. But to me who had a day from hell at work, I just want him to do it without having to nag at him 24-7. I do enough of that at work.
Of course I look at the big picture and yes, I am lucky for everything I have. And yes, I still wanna bitch sometimes.
Whew feel better already.
