Life As I Know It...

Hey, I'm Audrey. I'm blessed beyond belief & love the life I've been given. Basically our story goes like this: in May of 2007 Chris asked me to be his girlfriend. Fast forward two years to the date & he asked for my hand in marriage in front of the most beautiful sunset in Jamaica. Of course I accepted & on May 1st, 2010 I became his wife. On September 3rd, 2011 our lives changed as we glanced at a test reading "Pregnant!" Join us on our journey of becoming parents! Our bundle of Joy just so happens to be due in May 2012 :) Engaged at 19, married at 20, pregnant at 21, & baby at 22! What more will come?!... Also, I am a Scentsy Family Independent Consultant. I joined in November of 2012 & it was one of the best decisions ever. I am able to stay home with my son Cole. I also have been to Hawaii on an all expense paid vacation from Scentsy. I just got back from Leadership retreat in Cancun Mexico, and this June my husband and I will be traveling to either Greece or the Bahamas on an all expense paid vacation AGAIN!

Damn it infertility

Today I was just doing some research and taking inventory to see what this little kiwi is going need when they arrive.

I dug out Savannah’s infant carrier and wouldn’t ya know, it expired in December. An expensive item we intentionally picked in neutral colors planning to re-use for future children.

It’s sad to see her baby seat go but it’s also sad because my late grandma bought that seat for us. She couldn’t have been more thrilled to feel good enough to be at my shower (battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer) to give her us this gift. So it’s sentimental to me. I’m a bit of a hoarder in general but when it’s something sentimental to me I just can’t let go of it.

Just one more thing infertility decided to f*** up.. Of course also in my hormonal state of mind couldn’t help but think “Appleseed would have been able to use it if I hadn’t miscarried”

I seriously need some feel good movies to get my hormones in check..

:( I'm sorry girl. I will say, if you have a Babies R Us near you, they are doing their trade in event. Take the old carseat in and get 25% off a new one.

My bitty baby is ONE!

So, I usually would be super anti makeup free selfie, BUT I want you to see how amazing Younique makeup is. It can cover up all those ugly imperfections I deal with and that says a lot! I don't sell it (YET!) but I am doing an online party this month. And best part is $50+ orders are FREE shipping!!!! Liquid touch foundation is photo shop in a bottle. I. Am. Obsessed. Let me know if you're interested in ordering from my party :)

[mrspendley-blog]

Have YOU been wanting one of our beautiful diffusers?! This month you can host a party (even online!) and get one for $65 with ONLY a $200 party!!!! Typically you'd need $350 in orders to get it half price but not this month! Let me know if I can set you up with a Facebook party.

I feel like a single mom a lot of the time. Even when Joe is here, it seems more like these are my children and he’s like a boyfriend or something that helps me lift heavy things and plays with them a bit, but isn’t really involved in any of the minor decision making in their lives.

Me: Babe, can you please feed the kids dinner? Him: Ok. What are they having? Me: Whatever you give them. Him: I don’t know what they eat. Me: Of course you do. They eat food like people do, except smaller because they are smaller and chokier. Me:**makes all the food and may as well just have done everything myself because this somehow always takes longer and frustrates me more**

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Me: My back is bothering me. Would you please put the kids in their pajamas when I finish their baths? Him: **ridiculously exasperated sigh as if I just asked him to drive to another state, count how many dogs live there, and then report back to me within 20 minutes** Me: What? 🙄 Him: …fine. 😒 Him: Where are their pajamas? Me: In their drawers. Him: Which ones fit them? Me: The ones on top that they’ve been wearing all the time lately. Him: It’s such a mess in here **looking at literally a single laundry basket of clean clothes that are folded but not yet put away in an otherwise pristine room** Me: 🔥👿🔥

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Him: Falls asleep at 10pm the instant he sees our bed and sleeps like a loud but deaf dead body until 7am. Him: I’m really struggling today. I’m just so fucking tired. Me: 🔥🔥🔥👿👿🔥🔥🔥

He’s great and he usually lets me sleep in on the weekend and he buys groceries and he has a great job that’s really stressful, but dammit why do so many guys play Xbox instead of play with their kids and act like the same acts that are so exasperating for them are so effortless for us? No one wants to put the kids in their pajamas! It’s like wrestling an octopus into a straight jacket while underwater where it has a distinct advantage. I don’t know what to fucking feed them either! We’ve got 30 things they should eat, 10 they probably might, but they usually throw the thing on the floor that they loved just yesterday. I’m not the expert! You can’t be an expert on a subject that’s constantly changing. And you don’t listen to me anyway! I can hear the kids screaming while I’m in the shower. I take maybe 2 showers a week and I stand there telepathically willing you to make the noise stop and it never does. Rant over. For now. (ಠ_ಠ)

My life.. I was really excited because my husband is on school break, but nope… Not once has he stepped up his game.

Yesterday was like pulling teeth to get him to come with us to the play center 😒😡

I feel you Sandy.

I am convinced this is 99% universal. I am leaving 1% just in case…C is mostly great. He puts E to bed most nights but beyond that, I have to ask. And ask again. Then get no response resulting in my asking again and relieving a “yea, I heard you”. Then say something fool because if you don’t and I walk away, you will tell me you didn’t hear me. Damn selective hearing at its finest. And don’t get me started on the laundry basket at the bottom of the stairs that is stepped over day after day because it “wasn’t seen”.

I wonder if it would bug me as much if I didn’t work too??? Full time job + full time mom + full time cook + full time maid=WTH? I’m not making enough.

[mrspendley-blog]

I can't NOT reblog this... Seriously, it's too damn accurate! Or on the weekend I hear "this is my only day to sleep in" EXCUSE ME?!?! I am up every single day of the week earlier than you to feed a baby and you're gonna be upset when I ask for ONE day of not getting up before 7?! Nope. Nope. Nope.

My best friend had her baby today and I got to witness it all! I had the honor of holding her right leg as she brought miss Paisley Jo into this world. Seriously jealous of the first time labor & delivery this girl had! She went from 3cm to complete in an hour and a half. And didn't even tell anyone she was crowning. Talk about a good epidural ;)

[mrspendley-blog]

😢

My best friend is being induced tomorrow with her first baby and every damn person I've asked to watch the boys is busy! I'm gonna be heart broken if I miss this. I'm supposed to be in the delivery room with her! Wahhhhhhhhhhh
