New Job

2011-10-05T03:38:00.000-07:00

Things are getting better, I now have a job at Busy Bees Preschool. Its is a lot of fun. I get to play with crayons and glitter all day. lol Plus the extra money is very helpful. I dont have to get up very early either, which makes me very happy, lol. Matt is getting very talkative. We are majorly teaching him to recognize the letters and numbers, which he is doing well at. Well thats all i have time for atm. so until next time.

Misery?

2011-08-24T20:27:00.000-07:00

Things are never enough? You know, sometimes i wonder why i try so hard. It never seems to get me anywhere and i just get b****** at for failing... Failing=learning for me a lot of times. But when i try again... Oh no... Its wrong. I cant fail. Frak that! Its never good enough even when i do succeed its not enough. No good job, no well done. Just "do this better" or "you should've done that instead". Whats the point in actually trying, anyone know?

Frak this................

Blood

2011-08-03T20:27:00.000-07:00

Been a pretty good day. Went this morning and donated plasma. A little bit of a different experience. I got really light headed and hott and had to stop halfway through though. I am going to try again. I think it was because i did not have enough water and stuff to eat. But I feel good that i saved someones life by donating. I wish there was a place in Columbus though, so that the drive would not be so bad.

Other things that have been going on are...i now have a JOB! Lol. A real job. I go for training on Friday. I am excited. Its not as much money as i would like and its only part time. But it will make Anthony happy, and shut him up lol.

Went and did some art the other day. I spent all day doing it and i have to say that i miss it so so so much. It would mean the WORLD to me if i could do artwork for a living. Its something that i am passionate about. Im thinking about changing my major to it. I just love it so much. Being able to be creative everyday would make me so happy. I would be on cloud nine. Well if i got paid well enough for it anyway. lol

Weight loss has slowed a little. I have hit my plateau. So i think i am going to up my weight training. Training for my 5K is going well. I can jog two miles now with only one quarter mile walk section. Which makes me extremely happy. I was sick about two weeks ago with some thing, idk what it was, but i couldnt run and i ended up gaining some weight back. :-( No fun. but i will get it back down.

Well, Im helping my sis make a costume for Gen Con. So im going to go. Until i write again.

Summer Time

2011-06-16T10:44:00.000-07:00

So, i am loving this weather lately! 70 degrees with a breeze is AWESOME. There is just something about the sun that just makes me feel good. I really want to go swimming though. I need to get a swimsuit. The one i have is so old its falling apart lol. So any suggestions on where to get a good, decently priced one? Im think target or TJ Max. Softball tonight! I play on Wed's for a womans league. Last week i went to my best friends game on Thursday and they ended up needing another player, so i filled in. Ended up that they want me to come play with them for the rest of the season. lol. Coed league is a little harder to do lol. VBS is this week, and Matt is doing well. Its good for him to get some time with other kids and have some socialization time. He has really been testing me lately though, which is frustrating.... lol... I just want him to be a good kid and grow up to be a good family man... Well going to hang with the sis for a little while. Until i post again

Things are going Well

2011-06-08T14:56:00.001-07:00

Hey all,

Things have been going well especially for my lifestyle change. All together i have lost 17 pounds so far, 10lbs of it in the last month. I have not had a chance to calculate inches yet but i will.
Matt is getting big. He is talking a lot. I get the Mom, Mom, Mommy...etc, now; Which is just lovely. He is the sweetest thing though. We will go to bed and he will tell me to have "sleep dreams" (sweet) lol. He currently fell and hit his head on a toy car and bruised the whole upper side of his face. He has the makings of black eye. I feel so bad for the poor baby! But no concussion or anything of that sort.
Anthony and I are doing well. He is working at Cummins and I am working at IUPUC as a research assistant, which i get to do from home. I am so grateful because I dont have to play for daycare and gas to get to work. We are blessed.
We have had an issue lately.. our water heater finally decided to break down, and we have to get a new one. Does anyone know where to get a 40gallon water heater for a good price. We really dont have the money to get a new one and cold showers SUCK!!! But all is well, I am going to hop off here for now and go to my softball game tonight. Yay. I am definitely bringing water in this heat!!!
Until I post again

Winter and other things

2011-02-03T09:56:00.000-08:00

As i have been on this diet journey now for two weeks, I have to say, that I am loving it. I have lost five pounds and an inch from my tummy. I am so excited! I know that I have a long way to go but this is encouraging to me that i know i can do it. Something that has helped me do this life stlye change is called www.myfitnesspal.com. I love it. Its a site (also app for phones) that you log in all you have ate and what workouts you have done and it keeps track of it and does all the math for you. You tell it your goal and it gives you a plan to follow. It is awesome. If anyone wants to add it you can add other people and see what they post. I'm s_ballchic_2 if anyone wants to add me, just let me know who they are.
On another note, i loved these storms the past couple of weeks. I have to admit though, that I did not have to go in it much. It was really pretty from my windows though! I hope that everyone who lost their power or who got stuck in it, is doing o.k. now..
Well my friends.. until I post again!

2011-01-25T13:00:00.000-08:00

Down with the Sickness

2010-12-17T22:51:00.000-08:00

So Matthew and I just got done with being sick. Last Saturday i had to take Matt to the doctor, turns out he had a double ear infection and a bad chest cold. Well he gave it to me and then I gave it to Anthony, so the sickness has been sufficently passed around i would think. Pray that it doesn't get passed around any more! I hope you all do not get. It was not Fun! Well a little bit of updating. Let's see. I am now going to school!!!! Yay. And with Christmas coming up, that is going to be hard to do all the assignments. lol. Speaking of Christmas, I'm so excited for Matthew this year. He is going to have a blast opening presents. I have had to get on to him a couple of time for trying to open them early! lol. He's just two, lol, what are ya to do. Pray for Anthony, for he is trying to find a new job so he can leave the one he has now, which is a difficult thing to do. Also pray for me to be able to get more hours as well!. Well I think I'm going to hop off here and try to get some sleep. I'm restless and can't sleep this evening, well...morning. Good Night everyone and Happy Holidays!

Fall 2010

2010-11-03T12:45:00.000-07:00

Man, I love the Fall. Its my most favorite season. Other than the cold... i love the weather. The sun is shinning, the trees are gorgeous in color, and there is just an aura in the air that "winter is coming, winter is coming." I Think that it is SO beautiful. Of course I love halloween and Thanksgiving. Halloween may be over but im looking forward to Thanksgiving. There is nothing like the feel in the air. I wish i had words to decribe it, but i dont. So ok now that i have that out there im going to post some pictures i love....

Matthew and Mommy

Storms

2010-10-26T08:46:00.000-07:00

So ya.. the storms that just went through Indiana were awesome. 1200 mile radius(all across Indiana from north to south) 80-90 mph winds. It was so cool to see it roll in. There is nothing in the world to compare to that feeling than before the storm. I love storms if you cant tell. But ever since i had Matthew im been more scared of them for his sake. Before i felt like that i could go outside in the middle of the storm and not worry about it, but now i feel so protective. Its werid and cool that i feel like a parent. Lol. He has my heart!

Wow... Been a long time

2010-10-24T11:15:00.000-07:00

So ya... Its been forever since i last posted. Well lets see the basics of the past year of my life included... Meeting a Wonderful man, who is now my Husband, Anthony Burton. We got married September 4th 2010. Then i proceded to break my arm. Then Matthew turned two... These are the basics and i will be posting pictures soon. Tell me what you my new layout!!!

My New Decade!

2009-01-16T10:19:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone,

Tuesday the 13th was my 20th birthday. I didnt have time to take a paid day off from work, but it so happened that i had a really bad migraine headache that day. So i called in. :-) I had a pretty good day. i slept in till 11 or so and then lazed around for a lil bit. Then Kyle took me to dinner at Applebees. My friend Timara went with us too. Then we all went shopping later in the evening. It being a weekday, nothing was nearly as crowded as normal. It was a pretty nice layed back day!I got a lot of text messages and calls saying happy birthday. So it was nice. Me and Timmi at Applebees

I got to thinking that day tho. (you all are going to get some insight on my life) I got to thinking about the last ten years of my life. Its crazy to think how much i have done and how fast and slow it all went, if you know what i mean. I remember turning ten. It seems like a long time ago. We lived in California then. We had a big party in the churches fellowship hall! lol. Then when i turned 12, we moved here. I didnt want to leave all my friends in Cali, and i hated my parents for making us leave. Lets just say that the first year or so here wasnt so good for me and sarah. 5th - 6th grade is a bad time to move. When i was 14 we started at Columbus Christian school and started playing a bunch of sports year round and it seemed like the time flew by because we were going non-stop! Sarah and I played basketball, volleyball, softball(2teams), tennis and cheerleading. It was a busy schedule. We stayed there thru 9th grade and we decided that we wanted to go to publice school. It was the best decision. We already knew a bumch of people from before we went to CCS, so we werent strangers. I had a couple boyfriends and sarah had been dating this one guy for a LONG time. I dated this one guy, Justin O'Connell and we got close, so when he died in a car accident at the age of 17, everyone was devestated. But luckely i had someone to help me through it! Kyle was there for me through the whole thing. Justin and Kyle had known each other when they were little. So the past couple of years have gone by pretty quickly and here i am 20 years old with a son and graduated high school, ready for this new chapter in my Life. I hope it brings love and happiness and that it will go by slowly, because i have learned to cherish my time.

Sickness and the Doctor

2009-01-15T22:13:00.001-08:00

After the holidays i noticed that Matthew was starting to get sick. He didnt have a fever or anything, just some sneezing and a lil cough. Well this past monday i took him into the doctor for them to check it out. Matthew's doctor wasnt there so we had to see someone esle. The doc we saw checked Matthew out and he said " Its just a cold. He will be fine in a couple of days."At the doctors Monday

HA. So much for those words. On my birthday(Tuesday), we decided to stay the night with my friend Timara and while we were there Matthew started wheezing horribly and coughing! So the next morning i called and took him to the doctor again. Yet again Matthews doc was not there so we had to see someone else but it turned out ok because we got to see the doctor that Matthew had had at the hospital. So Dr. Larson checked him out and he said that Matthew had an upper resportory infection and he gave him a scrpit for some antibiotics. Unfortunately i had to go to work, so mom and dad had him all day. He wasnt going ANYWHERE. So i come home and start to put him to bed, his cough sounds horrbile and he feels warm, so i think to myself, "i will take his temp first."

Good thing i did .It was 102.4 . I was like oh my godness. Now i know that thats not that high. But for a baby of Matthews age it has room for concern so i give him a colder bath and some tyenol to try and get it down and that wouldnt work. So i end up calling the nurse hotline. They tell me to take him to the emergency room. Of course this was at 2 o clock in the morning. So we go and get checked out. His temp was still 102. The doctor comes in and listens to him cough a couple times and tells me that Matthew has Crupe. :_( (cry symbol). The nurses and everyone on the night shift thought he was the cutest thing even tho he didnt feel good. The nurse gave him a steriod shot, which would help take the swelling in his throat down and the some tyenol and we were on our way home. We got home around 4 30 am. (i shortened this past part, everyone was SuPeR nice and kind. Not at all the rush in and out thing).

In his gown. Cute but sad.(top)
In Mommy's Arms. (bottom)

Today he is still feeling bad. The shot has helped him some. I feel so bad for him. He is really fussy. He goes to cry or make a noise and nothing comes out, but you can tell it hurts him to even try that and he just makes a face that tells you hes in pain. So everyone, please, pray for him to get better soon!

We love and miss you all
Ps i will post bout my birthday tomorrow. im too tired right now

Matthews First Big Snow

2009-01-10T22:05:00.000-08:00

So the other day, we (as in columbus) finally got some snow.

We had maybe one inch and a half but that wasnt too bad.

I actually love the snow, i just wish it wasnt so cold! lol

So this is Matthew, all snuggled up warm in his snow suit.

Its a bunny(see the ears). He is just adorable in it!

Christmas

2009-01-01T16:27:00.001-08:00

Well hi everyone

So christmas was good this year but it was very busy! We ate breakfast at Harold and Annettes. She made biscuits and gravy, which were awesome as usual! Then we all headed to my parents house ofr our christmas there. Matthew ended up sleeping through the whole gift opening but he woke up in time for lunch(dinner) and he got to play in his new toys! Kyle and I got him the jumper (the video) and grandma and grandpa kennedy got him a swing! Kyle loved the jacket and benie he got from my family, and i loved my external harddrive. So after the gifts, we had lunch. Then we all packed up and headed to Harold and Annettes to open gifts there. Matthew got a lot of cute clothes, and a swing for his use here, and a oranament from Burckhardts(thanks guys). Kyle got wireless headphones, a calender, and a tv series from me. And i got a bunch of books that i wanted and a sweater that i love. By the time that everything was done and over we were TIRED. lol... well i keep the pics and posts coming. Hope you all had some great holidays

10 Stocking Stuffer Ideas

2008-12-16T21:42:00.000-08:00

The Pocket Get Off the Phone Excuse Machine

Nothing says aggravating quite like an annoying phone call you just can’t get away from. The Pocket Get Off the Phone Excuse Machine eliminates that problem once and for all. From a baby crying to a car crashing, you’ll never be without an excuse to get off of the dreaded phone call again!

Whoopie Cushions

People are longing for nostalgia, and simple items like whoopie cushions and hand buzzers are selling like hotcakes. If you want to bring a smile to someone’s face, give them a Whoopie cushion as a stocking stuffer. It’ll be a source of amusement all day long.

The Stella Awards

If you and your friends are the type to get annoyed when someone abuses the civil court system, you’re going to love the Stella Awards by Randy Cassingham. This book makes a great stocking stuffer and highlights the most bizarre of civil lawsuits in a hilarious and entertaining manner. The only thing that’s not funny about this book is that the crazy cases that are highlighted are true!

Half-Eaten Cookies

Getting cookies in your stocking is probably OK, but imagine getting cookies that already have a bite taken out of them! This hilarious cookie cutter will have your friends wondering what you were thinking when you give them cookies that aren’t all there.

The Do-It-Yourself Stocking Stuffer

This stocking stuffer is best for couch potatoes. It's called the "Home Exerciser." Making it is simple. Just take a block of wood and make a sign that you glue onto the wood. The sign says:

Home Exerciser
1. Place the Home Exerciser in the middle of the floor.
2. Walk around the Home Exerciser three times.
3. Take a well deserved break: you've walked around the block three whole times.

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians has the honor of being perhaps the worst holiday movie ever made. It not only has a stupid plot, bad acting and ridiculous special effects, but the title alone could qualify it as a really bad movie. But, it's now available on DVD, and it's SO bad that there will be a lot of laughs.

Bobble Heads

Bobble heads also make great stocking stuffers. Figurines with little bodies and big heads that bobble around just seem to make people smile. They’re becoming increasingly popular and are being collected by the young and old alike. From sports to pets, bobble heads are everywhere and the humorous ones always bring a smile to the recipient’s face.

Tiki Tissue Box Holder

This is surely not your ordinary tissue box holder! Whenever someone needs a tissue, they have to pull it from the tiki’s nose. This tiki tissue box holder is sure to bring laughs not just on Christmas morning, but the whole year through.

Funny Face Pacifiers

If you have a baby on your shopping list, these funny face pacifiers make one hilarious stocking stuffer. Unfortunately baby will be too young to benefit from the humor of it, but the adults will be laughing the whole day through.

Snowman Poop

Know someone who was naughty this year? Forget about coal in the stocking -- give them a baggie full of snowman poop instead. A little baggie filled with miniature white marshmallows and a cute little note saying that your naughty friend is getting nothing but snowman poop for Christmas will bring on serious bouts of laughter from all around

Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening

2008-12-15T21:50:00.000-08:00

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Robert Frost

Robert Frost is my favorite poet. Two Roads Diverged in a Wood would have to be my favorite,
but this poem is my second favorite. Why, Do you ask? I love it because you can almost see yourself
sitting horseback, staring at the woods with snow on the winter solstice, just for the sole purpose of
capturing the captivating beauty of the quiet snow falling to cover the woods. He (the speaker) makes it
clear that he has somewhere to be, but yet he stops to take in the awe striking scene. The mood that
frost sets is peaceful and calm, yet mysterious. In the final stanza, the poem brings the whole scene together,
an intense love and awe of nature, a never ending patience and some unknown task or problem that robs the
speaker of rest. The dark and deep woods seem to reflect the speakers mood of tiredness. And the miles to go
before i sleep says that he has a responsibility to do. So, what do i think this poem is saying...
To me, the poem is inspiring. The speaker is tired, but yet h e stops to witness the beauty. The horse
think that is is odd tells me that it isnt something that the driver dies often but that he needs a break from his
responsibilities to have time to himself, to reflect, even if its just for that moment. What i get out of it is that
we need to appreciate the things that are around us. Even if its just for that one moment. We need to spend time
to look for the little things in life and be grateful for them. We shouldn't be so caught up in everything else that
we forget to look, and fail to see the beauty of things.
S
o as this year comes to a close. Appreciate the things that you have, help those in need and look around.
You just might see something unforgettable.

Christmas Countdown

2008-12-06T19:43:00.000-08:00

Hey Everyone

Just wanted to blog about my day off. I am so glad that this week is over. Work has been pretty good and bad all at the same time. We found out at work Thrusday that my work was 26% over our sales for this year so we got a extra week off for christmas. Yay. So now i am off work the 19th thru the 5th. I am so happy! So today i went shopping for the few people i had to buy for yet and let me tell you it was CRAZY. People were everywhere. Drivers were being stupid in the inch of snow we had. Everything was rush rush rush. I think that sometimess people forget the reason for this holiday. Its about giving and being with your friends and family. Not about giving the most expensive gift or even the holiday parties. We are celebrating Christ's birth and people forget that. Just the other day, black friday i think, i heard in the news about how this Walmart employee got trampled by the crowd trying to get in to get the sales. Its sad that those people were so selfish to do that.

Anywaz.... I just want everyone to not forget about the real reason for the season and i hope you all have a great holiday.

The Doctor and Me

2008-11-25T12:00:00.001-08:00

So the other day we went to the doctorfor Matthew's 2 month check up. That morning he was smiling and cooing. He was awake the whole way to the doctors. He didnt even cry at all. So when we got back to the room we had to strip him down to his diaper. I didnt take his socks off cuz it was COLD in there. He got weighed (he was fasinated by the scale) and measured. He weighed 14 lbs and was 25 in long. The nurse said that he is the size of a 3 month old. Then the doctor came in and gave him his check up. She said that he was doing great and that he looked great. Kyle and I asked her about giving him ceral/oatmeal since he eats about 6 ounces every hour. She said to wait for a little while, but that we should be able to give him some when he is about 3 1/2 months old. He also had to get some shots and a oral medicine. He did great with the oral medicine. he actually seemed to like it. Then the nurse gave him one shot in his leg and he waited for a sec, then he cried. The nurse then gave him the other one in his other leg. He stopped crying for a little and then started again. It was like he forgot about the first one. Lol. Well since it has been a couple of days, we have seen the effects of the shots. On Saturday he had a fever and was really fussy. But he is doing better now. I will keep you all updated

Church Thanksgiving Dinner

2008-11-25T10:49:00.000-08:00

On Sunday the 20th. Kyle, Matthew and I all wen to Harold and Annette's church for the their annual thanksgiving dinner. Man, let me tell you the women of that church sure can cook!! There was a lot of good food and everyone had a good time. As you can tell from the pictures everyone wanted and did hold Matthew. He's so attention deprived. Lol. NOT. Everyone spoils him rotten. Mackenzie, of course, sat next to me. We are best buds. lol. She is the sweetest thing and she has grown so much in the past year. It doesn't seem like that long ago when she wouldn't even talk to me. Lol. I have enjoyed watching her grow. i cant imagine Matthew being that old and growing that fast. I like this stage that he is in now. But he is still growing like a weed. He is smiling more and wiggling like crazy. I call him my little wiggle worm. :-) He is definitly eating a lot. No wonder he's growning so much, right. lol

The Birthday Boy

2008-11-25T10:11:00.000-08:00

As some of you know, Kyle turned 21 this week. So i had a little party for him. Our friends Danny and Charles came. There would've been more but a couple of our friends but they weren't feeling good. But despite our small numbers we had a good time eating food and cake. After we finished eating, we all went to Lags, which is our local pool hall and played a couple of games. So all in all we had a pretty good time.

Phone Blogging

2008-11-21T00:40:00.000-08:00

WOW so i am playing around on my phone today cuz im bored. So i deceide to check my email, but then i thought... Why dont i try to blog. And what do you know i can blog from my phone. Its really cool. And actually i am writing this from my phone. Lol... Neafty. Lol. Talk to you all soon.... By the way Vi, my bday is jan 13

Work Days

2008-11-18T09:32:00.000-08:00

So yesterday was my first day back to work. It was ok, pretty long that's for sure. I really didnt want to go back. I think that the reason i didnt want to go back was because i dont want to leave Matthew. I think that i would do better if i had a first shift job. 3-11 is really going to kill me with having to get up with him at night and being up early. But i think that i will get used to it in time. Kyle will be having Matthew some nights, so that will help. Anywaz, I really missed Matthew yesterday and it made for a long long day. But I eased some of my pain by letting the some of the best babysitters in the world watch him, Grandma and Grandpa Killinger. Annette said that they had a good time. Here are some pics that she took.

Funny stuff

2008-11-15T13:10:00.000-08:00

Military Cutbacks

The Taxi Ride
A tourist is picked up by a cabbie in New York on a dark night.The passenger taps the driver on the shoulder to ask him something.The driver screams, loses control of the car, nearly hits a bus, drives up on the sidewalk, and stops inches from a shop window.For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said, "Look friend, don't EVER do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!"The passenger apologizes and says he didn't realize that a "little tap" could scare him so much.The driver, after gathering himself together replied, "Sorry, it's not really your fault.Today is my first day as a cab driver - I've been driving hearses for the last 25 years!

Gas Problems
A little old lady goes to the doctor and says, "Doctor, I have this problem with gas, but it really doesn't bother me too much because they never smell and are always silent. As a matter of fact, I've farted at least 20 times since I've been here in your office."
The doctor says, "I see, take these pills and come back to see me next week."
The next week the lady goes back to his office. "Doctor," she says, "I don't know what you gave me, but now my farts, although still silent, stink terribly!"
The doctor says, "Good, Now that we've cleared up your sinuses, let's work on your hearing."

Baby Talk
Little Johnny came running into the house and asked, "Mommy, can little girls have babies?""No," said his mom, "Of course not."Little Johnny then ran back outside and his mom heard him yell to his friends, "It's okay, we can play that game again!"

Yesterday i was taking a break in the back garden after nasty storms, and my wife upstairs was having a shower.I couldn't find the rake so I yelled up to her: "Honey, where's the rake?".She couldn't hear me and she shouted back, "What?".I pointed to my eye, then I pointed to my knee and made a raking motion. My wife wasn't sure and said, "What?". I repeated the gestures: "EYE KNEE THE RAKE".My wife replied that she understood and signalled back. She first pointed to her eye, next she pointed to her left breast, then she pointed to her bum, and finally to her crotch. Well, I had no idea what in god's name she was on about, so I trudged up the stairs, poked my head into the bathroom and asked her, "What the heck was that?".

She replied EYE - LEFT TIT - BEHIND - THE BUSH

Ben invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how beautiful Ben's roommate was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between Ben and his roommate and this only made her more curious. Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Ben and the roommate than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, Ben volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Allison and I are just roommates." About a week later, Allison came to Ben and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. "You don't suppose she took it, do you?" Ben said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, Ben received a letter from his mother which read: "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Allison, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with Allison. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"

Bath Time

2008-11-04T19:29:00.000-08:00

Hey Everyone

So things have been going pretty well lately. We are trying to get Matthew into a routine. He is a pretty good sleeper. He gets up maybe 2-3 times a night and is awake a lot of the day. He is gettting to where he will smile at you if you do something funny. He is also majorly sucking on his fists but he wont take a pacifier. Lol. But he is so sweet. We try to give him a bath every night around 8 30 and give him a bottle to make him sleepy. I thought you all might like to see some bath time pictures. He is really a cutie. He loves his baths. He kicks his feet, smiles, and coos. He is wearing a dinosaur robe, which he is adorable in. Keep posted for more soon!

Hand Cast

2008-11-02T16:44:00.000-08:00

So today was a pretty normal sunday. We got up and went to church this morning. i personally loved the extra hour of sleep, i dont know about anyone else. We went out to eat at Golden Corral today with my parents. That was a nice change. Then we had a pretty lazy afternoon. I was cleaning the nursery and i found the hand cast kit and i thought "OOoo i need to use this" and so i waited for Matthew to go to sleep and finally he did. I got all the stuff ready and was waiting for it to sit and all of a sudden matthew jumps in his sleep and puts his fist all in the plaster then decides to smear his head with it. :-( lol. So i had to clean him up and get him back to sleep. But finally i got him back to sleep again and we got the job done. Well thats all i have for now. I will put up more soon.

Halloween!!

2008-11-02T14:04:00.000-08:00

Hey Everyone,

So Halloween was pretty fun for me this year even though i didn't get to go trick or treating, oh well dont need the candy anyway. I dressed Matthew up in a skeleton costume. He was so CUTE and he glowed in the dark so he was easy to find, lol. Since he is only 6 weeks old we didn't go trick or treating.(DUH) But we did go to Aunt Katressa's for a little get together. Well, Katressa and John watched Matthew for me and Kyle all night, (Thanks Tress btw) while Kyle and I, with our friends Danny and Brandon, went to a haunted house in Greenwood. We all had a lot of fun. And, Of course, we all got scared. The boys made me lead a couple times, and there was times we ran. Lol. Lets see, there were people jumping out of the walls, people chasing you, and a lot of motion sensored devices(i wont go in to it). Of course, Brandon, the smart one of us all, brought a little bitty head lamp for a light. We were shining it around cornors so we could see what was coming, to no avail. We still got "GOT" a couple different times. We had fun crawling, running, and screaming. So all in all, i had a pretty cool Halloween.
