okay.. well maybe thats being a bit dramatic! But damn! I jjust got over six days of being the sickest I've ever been in my entire life. I cant believe strep throat kicked my booty that bad. It started with a sore throat, I thought it was allergies (this part of California is ridiculous this time of year).. but it only got worse. It turned into very bad headached, swollen lymph nodes, sore neck and back, and my jaw and teeth had this pain that felt like it came from so deep down inside. It was disgusting. I've never had any teeth problems before. Yes, at the ripe age of 26 I've never had a single cavity, never had my wisdom teeth pulled, never had braces, nothing more than my teeth cleaned... this pain, however, made me want all of my teeth ripped out immediately!
Those people who really know me know I also dont like to take meds and I was on ample amounts of antibiotic and vicodin. I normally never would have taken a single pill, but they were the only thing that kept me sane and let me get some sleep... and I'm the girl who wouldnt even take the vicodin they prescribed me after childbirth. I'm so hardcore (except in the case of sore throats apparently) LOL
So I missed like a week of work, and a week of beautiful northern california springtime. I missed a week of my boy's spring break (which means they drove me crazy all week) But I'm Back! I'm feeling good, went to work last night and had a great night, today's my day off and I have big plans.. so..look out world here she comes!!!

Boys will be boys
Recently overheard during an exchange between my two preschool age boys: “ You’ re mean!, No you’re mean! You go take a bath and get soap in your eyes!!!” I love the innocence, yet severity of that insult. I know, I’m mother of the year for thinking its funny.. but I do anyways. lol.

Kindergarten Registration
Today was the day we registered Dylan to begin kindergarten in the fall (well, July actually). He is officially the future class of 2022! I got a little sentimental when I saw that on the sign they’d hung up in the multipurpose room where we had to go for Dylan to be tested and to sign all the papers. We are all very excited, him especially. He wasn’t nearly as shy as I had assumed he’d be. He amazes me everyday, why am I surprised this time? lol
Continuing our morning, we went on to preschool, where Trent and I stayed today, I was there to help out.. Trent was supposed to just be my tag-along but of course, it ended up just being a normal day at school for Trenton. We painted, we read stories, we had snacks. My boys successfully came home with random paint splatters on their faces, and me with glue stick covered hands. It was a good day in preschool!
The rest of our day was pretty mellow.. well, mellow by Taylor terms, which doesn’t actually involve much mellowness at all.. but we like to have something..lol. Anyways, we went to the grocery store.
That went pretty great for obvious reasons! I made a big pot of my very favorite tortilla soup to keep in the fridge/ freeze, etc. And some yummy dinner for tonight. Now the boys are taking a bath, the rain has ceased for now.. and all is good in my little world <3 Goodnight!
