My First Post

So this is my very first ever post! I'm new to blogging, and addicted. So, my name is Blue. I'm happily married w/ 3 kids. I'm a stay at home mom, and need an outlet. My kids are 5, 3, and 3 months, and great as they might be, they drive me CRAZY! My mission w/ this blog is to get it all out. I need a place to bitch. Not only bitch, but talk about my kids, my family, and my daily short comings, as I try and figure it all. I've got issues, and am looking fwd to sloving them w/ the help of cyberspace. I'm not very computer saavy, and I can't spell to save my ass, so I might need a little assitance every now and again.
I titled this blog "mom of the year" b/c I'm so NOT. My mom of the year moments happen when I completely lose it, which I do on occasion. My biggest challange at the moment is my 3 1/2 yr old daughter. The dreaded "middle child". She's always been somewhat of a fire cracker, but since the birth of my 3rd child, also a girl, she has been OUT OF THIS WORLD naughty. Not w/ other people, but w/ me. Her favorite thing to say to me now is "NO", "I don't want to" and "Your a mean mommy!" It's rough. I'm sure its b/c of the new baby, and i've been trying to spend one on one time w/ her, praising her all the time..... it doesn't seem to help. Time outs are no longer working, spankings have never worked for her, taking things away only bothers her for a minute... Then what? How do you raise a child as strong willed as she is, to be an upstanding citizen? I thought people that had bratty kids were rotten parents who didn't discipline... K, that's not me. So now what? All for now.. I've got a PILE of laundry calling my name..

till later
