The minute I met Mike I knew there was something about him. We have been married for 10 and 1/2 years. We've shared our ups and downs. And I can honestly say that I couldn't imagine my life without him! He his such a strong soul! He is my everything. He is a fun and caring Dad! Once you get past the outer shell he really is a softy!! I love you...love!!

sick of.....

OK so this weekend was kinda rough. Mike and I had decided to pretend that we are broke so we wouldn't go out to eat....well it worked! But honestly I really think it was only because Quinlan was sick!! He didn't eat and rarely drank for 2 and 1/2 days. I was worried sick about him cuz his diapers weren't very wet. Well he never got the dried up lips and cheeks like my girls did when they were dehydrated and he seemed to be sleeping well so when he woke up this morning he jumped and ran outta his room, like he hadn't thrown up or even had a fever the night before! So I kept my fingers crossed that he would have a good day today. And so far so good!! (: Still not a whole lot of eating but he has had 3 or 4 cups of juice and water so YIPPEE!!

IF I WAS SUDDENLY A BILLIONARE...I would pay off ALL of my parents medical bills and everything else for my parents so my Dad could retire. I then would build a dream house and have someone else do all the work! LOL Then get a few more four-wheelers and get Mike his Harley ( so I wouldn't have to hear his wish list on a daily basis.) And I agree with Lish on buying boobs to get them back to where they used to be!! HA HA Oh and of course I'd have to get me a Harley so I could ride along Mike not just with him. And a new car for me. Then probably invest everything else. I'm sure I missed a few things and if Mike reads this he'll let me know!!
I ENJOY....
Being with my kids and Mike, shopping, reading, hanging out with the "girls", napping, a clean house...I really could go on and on!!
THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT ME...UMM... really I have no secrets..so I can't think of anything to say!

It's in the works....but not working so much!

Here is Q's musical potty! It actually has a sensor and plays music when activated! (: He is rather entertaining to sit with and wait for some music. He'll fart and stand up and say DONE!! But then looks in the potty and he'll then look at me with the cutest confused face...and say "Where go, Mom" then I'll tell him he just farted and he'll sit down and try again!! (: I had honestly forgotten how much work it is to potty train!
He is such a nut! This is his cheese face! We have sat and sang songs while on the potty for the last two days and nothing......no singing from the musical potty. ): Just Quinlan grunting and grunting! He is sure trying and seems interested, so as long as he is...MOM IS!!
Just a fun random pic. with his sisters socks on!!
P.S. If any of you have any ideas to help with the "boy" potty training process...I'M ALL EARS!!

You like your ducks in a row.You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace.People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.You work hard not to rock the boat.

What's" Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

OK so for those of you that know me...Is it true?? I totally think so!! Crazy!!

SPOILED???

For quite some time now Jordyn has wanted highlights in her hair. Well take in mind she is 8. So she had a reading test for school and I told her that if she reads 125 words in a minute she could get highlights. She read 117 words. ): She still did an excellent job considering 3rd graders are expected to read 110. So she did way good but I couldn't let her get highlights cuz' she didn't get what we agreed on right?... Well we then made another deal: If she makes 2 baskets for her team. ( I agreed to this thinking it would interest her or make her a bit aggressive) Well here is where Maycen pipes in and says she wants something for making 2 baskets also. So I proceed to ask her what she wants and she says money or maybe highlights. (she agreed to highlights..since her best friends Mom does our hair) So fast forward to Saturday, game day, Maycen not only makes 2 baskets but she makes 9!! (18 points of the 30 her team scored) (: She plays so aggressive. She is quite the go-getter. While Jordyn is a bit more timid. But Jordyn did have 2 shot attempts. Jordyn was so bummed that Maycen can get highlights now and she can't yet!! I'm sure her wheels are turning to think of another deal we can make in order to get her hair done!
