Hitch Jr...Lol!

My 2nd child, Pita has so many issues...first, he's too small for his age. Second, he's really light for his age (lack of milk) and third, his attitude is like 3 years older then him...lol! Well, to add to his list of issues he's allergic to certain foods like 2% milk (which explains his first issue) and now peanut butter. Of all things to be allergic to it has to be peanut butter! Anyways! How I know is because he asked (in his little caveman talking) his Grandpa Siua for the peanut butter and cracker...so he puts a little of the peanut butter on half of the cracker and hands it to Pita and as usual he has to do a little taste test before eating the whole thing...he holds the cracker in one hand and he uses his finger off the other and wipes a little of the peanut butter on it, then he licks it and with no surprise he doesn't like it...so he tosses it and runs to me sticking his tongue, I'm guessing to wipe off the peanut butter then he runs off doing his own thing. Well about 10-15 minutes later my oldest, Siua runs down telling me about Pita's eyes...I didn't think anything was wrong, because he wasn't crying, then he ran in the room and his left eye was swollen and red from all the rubbing along with the rest of his face which was covered with tiny red bumps. As soon as I saw his face I gave him some Zyrtec to relieve the irritation and I took a picture. Anyways if you've seen the movie, "Hitch" and watched the part where he breaks out into an allergic reaction and his whole face is practically swollen?! Well, that's what my son looks like when he breaks out into an allergic reaction...sad, but really funny!

"Super_Mom"


I wanted to post up a story about how my days are now with 3 children, maybe 4 depending on the situation...lol! Now that I have 3 children I can never say it's calm! Since the day my daughter was born my 2nd child, Pita, would suddenly feel the urge to throw tantrums whenever he feels like he's not getting the attention that he wants...which is all the time. Well, anyways I'll start out with my mornings which by the way starts with the beautiful smell of wet, poopoo diapers...sounds exciting doesn't it?! After changing 2 kids from diapers (maybe 3 if my oldest decides to be lazy and wet himself instead of going to the bathroom)...it's feeding time!! My daughter is obviously easy to feed...just prepare a bottle for her and I'm done, but I do wish I could say the same for my 2 oldest. They can be really picky, sometimes demanding when it comes to what they want to eat. It's always a constant battle between me and them when I know what they would eat and they think they know better...but eventually I would give in and let them eat what they want. Anyways! So by the time they're done eating, I would give them a bath, brush their teeth and let them chill for a while, so I can take care of my daughter. One o' clock in the afternoon would come around and I'm preparing to make lunch or dinner (depends when I'm finished) and my son begins his tantrums...the crying, screaming, dropping to the floor and grabbing my legs to keep me still...yay!! But I don't pick him up automatically, I let him get his frustrations out til he's calmed a little then ask what he wants...usually it's because he's tired, but most of the time he just wants me to carry him. But throughout all that craziness I was still able to finish lunch/dinner.After that I would clean up the living room, kitchen and patio, because my oldest child likes to leave a trail of his mess everywhere he steps! Now... your probably wondering why I said "maybe 4", right? Well...it most definitely wasn't through labor! Hahaha...that would be painful. No, no he came the day we said "I DO". I basically treat him the same as my children...feed and clean up after him...the only difference is that he works 4 nights, 10 hour shifts and he's able to wipe himself...thank heavens for that!! Anyways! When I continue becoming a multi-tasking mother with 3 children, all under the age of 3 and a husband who thinks because he works he doesn't have to do anything...it makes me wonder how my mom does it with 9 children. Must have been pretty crazy!! Well I'm done with my story...til next time. C-ya!
