I give up
I am throwing in the towel with the Christmas cards. I just couldn’t get it together this year….
BUT next years card will be AMAZING!
:)
Daniel asked me what he could do to get the blog going again. I said have a clean house. And help write the blog. We’ll see how that goes…
The Family
This is the latest and greatest picture of the family, minus me. We were at the Toledo Zoo. There actually was a spot that everyone was enclosed in a small space, so I decided to take the opportunity and get a snapshot. The only thing that would’ve made this picture better was if someone came in and took the picture for me so I could be in it. But7/8 of us the picture looking at the camera isn’t bad. It isn’t bad at all..
Behind
I am behind on laundry, bathroom cleaning, grocery shopping,exercising, sleep, life’s special moments with my kids…
I WAS going to do a trial run for a 5K tomorrow, but now I am not…
(email sent to some friends of mine I was going to run with tomorrow)
I was SO in for doing this run bright and early tomorrow morning and now I am So OUT!
- I have to take my parents to the airport at 7:30am (just typing that is killing me..) They are going to Montreal and then getting on a cruise ship for a 7 day cruise. The Canada/New England cruise. Being retired is so glamorous for them.
Technically, if it wasn’t for reason #2, I would be able to make it back to Hines drive and run with everyone BUT-- (drum roll please)
- I have to start a “clean out” medication. Once again, I am back-up aka full of crap. I know, it sounds gross but I don’t know how to put it any nicer.. The medicine I will be taking as soon as I get back from taking my parents to the airport is: PEG-3350 & Electrolytes (generic for Golytely Solution 4000ML) You can tell all of your husbands who are doctors. They will probably all feel my pain… I will definitely be feeling it. Stay away from my house tomorrow!
Why am I doing this you may be wondering?
I got another hugely pregnant looking bloated belly and horrible stomach pains on Thursday. Seriously, I look like me 5 months pregnant! I was in bed all day while my wonderful daughter took care of her 5 younger brothers and sister! I went to the doctor today and they took x-rays and I was “back-up” once again. Last time, my Dr. gave me a slightly less intensive clean-out and although it did me good it did not clean me out all the way I guess.. Or the buildup happened again? Who knows… I guess time will tell…
So then, What am I wishing for?
I am wishing for me to poop out 30 lbs of junk. I have only gained weight since my sweet little princess, Miss B has entered this world and nobody can tell me why so maybe it’s because I am full of crap, literally… lol So tonight at 8pm, Friday September 2nd, I weighing in at 168lbs. (by far, the heaviest I have been without a child in me…) I was thinking by now, Miss B being 21 months, I should be in the 130’s right? WRONG…
So this is my wish tonight-
Starlight, Star bright, first star I see tonight
I wish I may, I wish I might, be 138lbs. and feel blishfully light!
I can wish can’t I?
Senta

Girls Camp July 2011
Zoey went to girls camp the middle of July. She was a 2nd year this year. The weather was horrible. Horribly HOT that is. It was in the high 90′s , low 100′s every single solitary day. I felt for her. I wouldn’t want to be out there for a week camping in that humidity. Not only was the heat horrible, but the humidity was worse. My brother Aaron was in the Midwest on business during these hot days and he told Lisa that he would take 119 degrees in Phoenix anytime if that meant he didn’t have to take the heat and humidity that we had here. We had a few weeks of really bad weather this summer.
She survived and had a lot of fun with the girls. This was her last year to go a member of the Westland Ward. She didn’t take a camera because she doesn’t have one. I went to pick her up from camp and was able to snap a few shots. The last day you are tired, cranky, and just want to go home and go to bed. I couldn’t convince her to go back to her room and sit on the bed for a pose or go to the main hall where they eat, or to the lake. She was more than happy to stop at McDonald’s on the way home for some craptastic food! She gobbled up chicken nuggets, french fries, and a coke + an ice cream cone for dessert!
Little kisses
Berkley love to kiss me. She does it all the time and I love it! It’s wet, sloppy, and hard. Her face is usually a total mess with sticky crusty , who knows what on it everyday. But I don’t care, I will take her sweet little crusty faced kisses anytime and anywhere!
Did I say I love it? I don’t just love it, but I love love love it! She’s my perfect little birdie..
