For a minute, while editing photos, I really, really, really thought it was Wednesday. So, even though it's Thursday I'm going to post some pics from the past week.
Yeah, Sidney has a turkey on her head.

Great dad
I don't think that I say it enough on the blog or in real life. Jorge is a great dad. He loves his kids a ton. It was actually what drew me to him in the first place.
*how we met and fell in love*
We were both ushers at the rosemont theatre for Elmo's coloring book (you know, a live stage show thingie). We were stuck on one of the side doors together for three shows on a Saturday. People would come in these doors at the beginning of the show, but no one could come in the doors when the show started. Anyways, it made for a long day if you were stuck with someone sucky. Jorge spent the day telling me about his little baby, about seven months old at the time, and I was smitten. He was still with the mom, but someone who talked about their baby so much really melted my heart. A few months later, he had split with the mom and we began dating. That was 13 years ago, November.
From that first day, Jorge has shown me that he loves and will do anything for his kids. He is working like a crazy man for them right now. As much as a hate not seeing him, it really is so selfless of him to work so much for us. It has taken me along time, but I realize that my dad did this for my family too. He worked his job and was a football referee so that he could earn a little extra money, for us.
Thank you dad. Thank you Jorge. I love both of you very much and you are both great dads.

Continued sleep struggles
We have struggled with sleeping at night for quite awhile. I don't remember the last time that I slept in my bed, with only Jorge, for a whole night. It has started to take its toll again.
Jorge puts gabe to sleep most nights. We put him to sleep in his bed for a few weeks but he would wake up, cry and then beg to come to our bed. Then, the sneaky little devil, would just climb in our bed without waking us up. That was scary, since we weren't watching out for gabe in bed.
For a few weeks now, Jorge has been putting gabe to sleep in our bed. Ok. Fine. However, they are watching cartoons (loudly) on Jorge's phone. Jorge claimed he's falling asleep. For awhile he was, now he's not. He has been going to sleep after 10 for the past few days. This means two things, I can't go to sleep before 10 and I have a kiddo who is sleeping until 730/8. Which is great, kinda. We have had things to do and not time to sleep in. Also, that means that he takes a later nap, goes to bed later and just continues the cycle. I cannot do this!
I don't like going to bed when gabe is still up because I'm still hoping to put him in his bed for the rest of the night. Although that really hasn't been happening. I actually like sleeping with gabe. I don't like going to sleep when he's still awake, he likes to put the ends of my hair in his cheek-neither one of us is getting to sleep.
So, I just don't know what to do. I have to put my foot down about the cartoons, I'm just not sure Jorge is going to be happy about that.
On another note, gabe had an awesome playdate with his future girlfriends, Maggie and Lucy. It's so cute! Maggie calls gabe her boyfriend already! I can't wait for gabe to start speaking sentences and saying funny shit like that!
They ate lunch, got in bed together, and then kissed! Maggie kept saying "gabe, kiss me good nite."

My life rocks!
It's that time again! It's time to share my week via instagram!
Haha! I was totally not grabbing the button the right way so it should take you to this awesome blog this time. Hey, I'm still learning because i totally suck at computer things.
1...best buds music time. Poor lucifer puts up with gabes super tight hugs. I think he secretly likes them!
2...yes! Block tower complete! He was super excited when he made a huge tower with his blocks and then got to knock it down.
3...Wednesday was Sidney's 14th birthday! Where has the time gone?
4...photo of the day...together. Gabe and Kyle love playing together
5...another photo of the day...black and white. This has been my most liked photo. Only six people but it's a start.
6...I couldn't find anything else to hold up my hair. I had a paintbrush but no hair stick thingies so u just went with the paint brush.
This picture isn't in the collage because it is one of my absolute favorite pictures. I love everything about it! (especially my cute kiddo! Haha!)

Wordless Wednesday
I'm still walking with megan and Kyle. It feels like we've walked a lot more than three times. The best part of the walk is after, when the boys get to play. Gabe doesn't really have a lot of playdates so this is awesome!
