4/27/16: Naomi stayed home from school, she claims she wasn't feeling well, so she hung out on the couch with me and while I worked she watched PBS Kids. I made hamburgers for the kids for dinner. After dinner the kids took a bath and while they were doing that I was cleaning out the second closet in my bedroom. Making more space/throwing stuff away. I still didn't get to two boxes, but I'll get to them eventually. Spring cleaning, ya'll! haha

4/26/16: I picked up the kids from school and we talked about what to make for dinner, something with chicken or hamburger. Naomi likes chicken, Brodie likes hamburger. Neither can agree on the meat. So I just decided. Anyway! I made this really delicious sweet potato pasta, chicken, mushroom, butter sauce meal for Naomi and I. Brodie made himself a PBJ sammy. lol Then after dinner, I put on Yo-Kai Watch for the kids and took an hour long relaxing bath. That was so nice. Just sitting there getting my thoughts together. There were big thunderstorms last night too, I slept so well. Still a little tired when I woke up, but not too much.

4/19/16: We picked out Brodie's cupcakes and cookie cake for his birthday. Brodie also got to open his birthday present from his Aunties Tisha & Tara and cousin Cora, as well as the gifts from me. It was also my friend Laremy's birthday.

4/20/16: BRODIE'S 7TH BIRTHDAY! I woke him up by singing to him. He took cupcakes to school to celebrate. At home I made homemade cowboy macaroni (macaroni & cheese with hamburger) and then we sang to Brodie and had some cookie cake.

4/21/16: It's not necessarily a "happy moment/memory" but a singer, Prince, passed away. He was one of those artists that did whatever he wanted, showed that it was ok to be yourself and not to care what people think.

4/22/16: We didn't do much, the kids were pretty excited for Saturday though. We went to bed early so we'd be rested for all the jumping we'd be doing the next day!

4/23/16: SKY ZONE DAY! We went to Sky Zone for Brodie's birthday, didn't have a party because all he wanted to do was jump. Our friends came, Brodie got a few things. Then he picked where we'd eat afterwards (Chick Fil A). It was a very nice day.

4/24/16: Sunday the kids and I cleaned the house. I appreciate their help when it comes to things like that. Naomi likes to clean more than Brodie so she was off cleaning and picking up everything!

4/25/16: Not much going on. Ate like a king for dinner, a Burger King that is ;) ha ha ha.. Watched a couple movies on Amazon Prime (Nasty Baby & I Smile Back). Pretty intense movies. Took a late shower. Had a good night's sleep.

4/18/16: I was actually having a really terrible day yesterday. But after a nap I decided I couldn't just lay around any more and be sad so I went to the movies. I saw The Jungle Book. It was great. Then I got a sandwich from Jimmy John's, went home and turned on Silver Linings Playbook--my go-to "feels" movie.

4/14/16: I got to see my friends Kerri and her husband Scott. She gave me this cat tapestry that she found while thrifting and it is great.

4/15/16: Josh got off work early and we came to my place, he made this really good pasta dish. I fell asleep on the couch, like always.

4/16/16: I went to the Overland Park Farmer's Market in the morning, purchased some flavored pastas some lavender kombucha some morels and lunch to go. Then Josh and I had an early dinner with his family at Vietnam Cafe, that was really fun. That evening I checked out a couple new places in town and had some nice conversations with "strangers".

4/17/16: Picked the kids up from their dad on Sunday. Over the weekend Brodie got a couple early birthday gifts, one of which was that Yo-Kai Watch 3DS game. He was SO excited and happy to play it. It was all he could talk about.

4/13/16: Finished one of my shows, weird ending. Took some pictures of Zoey kitty, because she usually hides away. And watched some more Yo-Kai Watch with the kids. We then ate dinner on the living room floor while we watched the kids' show. It was a good evening. I like my no-fuss nights with the kids.

4/12/16: My daughter actually told my boyfriend that she loved him and he told her that he loved her back. She's told me many times that she loves him and he's part of our family, etc. But she actually told him. It was very sweet.

4/11/16: So, I finally got to check out my images from my photoshoot I did back in February. The photos are beautiful. I can't even begin to describe them. Looking at them I knew it was me, but I could hardly recognize myself. And not because I looked totally different, but because these pictures were of this super beautiful woman and some days it's hard to view myself as such. I know I am, but these pictures were a great reminder of that. I can't wait for Josh to see them. I hope he likes them as much as I do.

4/8/16: Friday Naomi and I drew and colored some pictures. I then turned on ET since the kids have never watched it before and Brodie fell asleep on my lap.

4/9/16: Saturday the kids and I stayed home and Netflix & chilled all day. We watched an entire season of Yo-Kai Watch (for Brodie) and then Naomi and I watched the first two episodes of Lego Friends, some My Little Pony, and some Powerpuff Girls.

4/10/16: We were pretty lazy on Sunday too, the only thing we really did was clean the house. I cleaned the kitchen and both kids kept complimenting "wow mom, the kitchen looks so nice!" ha

4/7/16: My cats make me happy. If that makes me a crazy cat lady, I am 100% ok with that! ha! Last night, I caught my Siamese (Zoey) playing with her reflection in the hallway mirror and it was hilarious! Then, I laid down on my couch to take a nap and my Maine Coon (Sasquatch) came to cuddle with me. But instead of cuddling next to me, that huge dude came up and laid straight up on my head! haha He was purring like crazy, so I know he was happy. I love those pets of mine, I don't know what I would do without them.

4/6/16: So my son is super into this new game/show called Yo-Kai Watch. He has mentioned several billion times how he wants this game for his 3ds for his birthday--to which his sister has already said she'll get for him. Well, he will watch youtube videos of people playing the game and what not. Yesterday he found that there's a show of this game and was excited about it. I didn't know if it was on TV on a certain channel or what, so I said that maybe his dad could download it for him. WELL! After the kids went to bed I was searching on Netflix for something to watch. GUESS WHAT I FOUND!!! Yo-Kai Watch! haha I think it's the first season, but I couldn't wait to tell Brodie this morning about it. I was so happy when I found it last night! :)

4/5/16: Watched a new series on Amazon Prime, Catastrophe, and it is so funny! I loved it. Also, Josh actually stayed over until late last night. Usually on Tuesday's if he stays over he heads home around 7, but he was over until 9 or a little after. I really enjoyed his company there with the kids and me. I'm sure they enjoyed it too!

4/4/16: Yesterday was probably one of the better days I have had in awhile. And we didn't even do much. I worked, Josh had stayed over from Sunday night after the game. After work we just hung out, then went to the grocery to get stuff for dinner. Then home, watched some movies (a couple were terrible but we still watched them and laughed), ate tacos. I absolutely love laughing with him. Everything else goes away.

3/31/16: I had a pretty funny dream, Josh and I came to my place and he opened my bedroom door and my cat (Sasquatch) was hanging out on the bed. (the cats aren't allowed in my room) But he wasn't just like, regular cat style hanging out...he was like cartoony hanging out? Idk, it was silly.

4/1/16: No one played any pranks on me! That made me very happy! :)

4/2/16: I watched a couple awful movies at home. It was nice because I just lounged on the couch watching these awful movies, just chilling. Nice alone time.

4/3/16: ROYALS OPENING DAY!!! We went to watch the Royals beat the Mets (again) on the first game back. It was a lot of fun. Hung out with friends, ate hot dogs, tried sauerkraut for the first time! ha
