Organic....

I have been reading to get some ideas for non-toxic cleaning recipes. I love this link http://www.care2.com/greenliving/. I'm learning.. Try to change 1 thing at a time. My goal is to stop using the cleaning supplies that has all the chemicals. Change 1 by 1 cleaning supplies. I was reading a "Cookie" magazine about eco, etc. How to get the stain off of ur clothes? Pour boiling water on the spot as soon as possible! I'm like... That's simple! I love that part about the "pot gardening." It makes want to grow organic fruits, veggies, and herbs. I don't want to dig our garden to grow them. Anyway.. Something to think about to change everything to organic one at a time.

Updates...

There are soo much going on in the past few wks.

Bathroom is almost done remodeling! Just need to refinish the tub and then caulk around the tub and shower wall. 5 new windows. Just need to add 3 more new windows in 2 bedrooms which it will have to wait.

Mat had a surgery few days ago to repair his right inguinal hernia. He's healing quickly. Just glad that it's over. Because we had to drive 3 hrs to go to KC Children Mercy's Hospital early am then drove back after he had his surgery. Just so good to be home and back in schedule. Mat is not able to go to school till this coming Monday. Mathew, also, had MRI testing last wk. First try wasn't successful. He couldn't stay calm and cry. They can't do the testing while he cry. I can't go in the room because I have cochlear implant. I totally forgot about it! *slap me* Then reschedule again and put him to sleep and did the testing. It went well but it was a looooong morning. Then he had an immunization shots this morning. Poor him. He has to go thru so much for the past 2 wks! Other good thing, Mat has been playing xbox a lot lately! :-( But he sure enjoyed playing games on cpu, Nick Jr. He did really well himself! He learn quickly. Wow. He let Mak sit by him and watched Mat doing it. He let her pick out too. Share.

Mak has been throwing tantrum lately. Whines about EVERYTHING! Screaming at me. Is it her age? Mat was never like that. Mmmm... She has been trying to comfort Mathew lately due to surgery, and him being in pain, etc. It was soo sweet. She seems to be sooo THIRSTY for knowledge. She starting to sign new words. She loves to read read and watch movies and play by herself. Also, goes for a walk with me, too.

As for me.. I'm feeling weird lately. Fustrating.. I think I miss "me time" and "date with my honey." Mauricio knows that I want a date just the 2 of us! Hopeful soon we will. The weather has been WONDERFUL! Love the feeling of FALL weather. Now that I can open new windows! Before there was no screen and it makes it difficult to do it and don't feel safe with wide open. Suga keeps suggesting that I shld watch "The Secret" and I got it from Library. So will ck it out soon. I better get off..

Talk some more later. Will post pictures of before and after for the bathroom.

Visiting Angela n Rachelle in KC

My kids and I drove to KC to stay at Angela's place for a couple of nites and it was soooo good to see them. Their beautiful babies! Lil Z and Lil P wow. I miss holding them! My kids aren't baby anymore!! Boo Hoo.. I think babies are much more fun and easy! Toddlers.. Oh boy.. More challenge! Anyway, we all went to MidWest Kids Event and it was interesting information and free popcorn. Kids got some candy that looks like sand but it has flavors and colors.. They pick out the flavor and put it in the tube. Of course, they ate it! Candy freak kids! Pfft.. I don't like them eating candies very well. Or else, they become soo obsessed with the candies! It was a nice visit with Angela and Rachelle. Old times. Now they are mothers! wow.. Feels better to have them join my motherhood club! Here are the pictures of their beautiful kids and my kids.
