no IRS

So my hubby heard the other day that there was talk of getting rid of income taxes. Ok, so now before you get to excited about that let me explain. They would replace income taxes with higher sales taxes. You would be taxes depending on how much you spend. Which I don't know how it would affect Jason and I maybe better maybe worse. One thing that was pointed out though was that it would be pretty much impossible to cheat taxes unless you are stealing the stuff. Now I don't know the details about how everything would be. How much things would go up and all of that stuff. One thing that really catches my ear though is the illigal immigrants that are not paying taxes but still reaping the benifits of living here would have to pay taxes too. I'm not going to get all controversal about immigration because I didn't do anything super awesome to be here excpet be born in the right family, but I will take the stance that it is not right to live int this country and reap the benifits and rights of living here and not pay your dues. I have to pay taxes so why shouldn't they. What so you guys think?( the whole 3 of you that read this)

baby exploring

I just thought it would be funny to share the thing my girls are doing these days.
1.Kyla enjoys doing things with her eyes closed. Eating, walking, picking things up.
2. Kyla has become obsessed with her belly and with Ammie's belly also.
3. Ammie enjoys her new special attack. She charges, opens her mouth and places it on your face and then she stays there till you move.
4.Kyla enjoys shutting herself in closets and the pantry. She knocks one the door when she wants out.
5.Kyla enjoys spending the mornings with her sister in her crib. I have moved everything away from the crib so apparently she can climb up the bars.
6. Ammie really enjoys giving her big sister kisses. That is when she smiles the biggest.
7. Kyla really likes the moon. Every time we go out side she will search for it and call for it. We are learning the difference between the moon and stars, and also blinking plane lights.

14 kids stop the presses

OK, I'm sure you have all heard about the lady that recently gave birth to octuplets. Yes i will agree that it is not the best thing that she was trying to have seven children when she is single mother and has not finished school but, I am so freaking sick of people clamoring for all of the children to be taken away, give me a break. Like I said I agree that this path was not the most realistic one to follow. She has already said that she was not meaning to have 14 children. Then on top of that she had the option to abort them but she didn't which considering my beliefs I am glad for that. I just think that it is so silly that everyone is proclaiming how horrible of a parent she is when no one has even observed her with her children or even allowed herto have a chance. To me is seems like everyone just wants to jump on the band wagon of telling her how irresponsible she is. Ok well we know that but now what? We can probably count on the facts that huggies won't be giving her any freebies. Lets face it she is not very popular and they can't be associating themselves with that. They are no Jon and Kate. So she has fourteen children 10 of them under two. She will not be getting any help no custom made strollers for her. She has not finished school so at the moment she can not afford them. She is filling an emotional gap from her childhood with well children. So....... we are all going to sit here and pass judgment. Oh good job you are all so productive and oh so smart. I think people should one mind their own business and wait till something happens before they open their mouths.The media just doesn't have anything better to ropert on apparently then that a women has 14 kids. Wow I'm really sure there is nothing going on in the world that is more important than some woman is going to have a really tought time raiseing kids.Like, I don't know how about a war.The 2 million women and children are being traded as sex slaves around the world. How about the problem on reservations of rapist never being reported.The victims know nothing will ever be done because the American Indian goverments and the Federal goverment are unable to communicate properly about what cases are whos jurisdiction. How about the entire African Continent and the worlds well not really giving a crap about the thousands of people being murdered everyday. No no a women had 14 kids stop the presses. Stupid People can't find anything better to be outraged about.

ok I'm a bum

I realize that I have been such a slacker lately no posting or anything. I just have been tired and also feel like not a whole lot has happened lately. I will up date you on the super exciting happenings of late. The first big one is that Ammie is now crawling and getting into everything. Kyla now has a partner in crime. I bought a new thermometer. It is one that reads the temp from your forehead it is awesome and I love it. So much better than sticking a thermometer in the mouth, ear, armpit or....other places. Ammie slept her first night without waking up at all. Not even for a binky . I felt so refreshed that morning having had a uninterupted nights sleep. We are working on replicating that night. Our knives were really dull so instead of buying a new set we are making our walmart set last so we bought an electric sharpener. It to works awesome I can now actually cut through chicken now. Also I found an exercise that i actually enjoy... Yoga. It is calming and I am sore the next day so I know it actually is challenging my body. Now i am going to get myself in shape because as soon as my jogging stroller arrives I will be adding running to my daily work out. Also we just got done watching the super bowl and all I can say is sweet we one. That is really all that has been going one in the past month that I feel like actually sharing at this moment. Maybe I will have a rant later but for now I am good.
