Just a little vent...

Why do people who planned to get pregnant, do nothing but whine about being pregnant? HELLO, you did this on purpose! You have other children so this definitely isn't your first rodeo! Grrr! Just had to get that out there!

Let's try this again!!!

I'm a very neglectful blogger and I'm gonna try this again... Gonna be done procrastinating and try to do a blog entry or two every week!! Let's get some followers!

And we're on again!

Been too long... Mady is now almost 5, Sami will be 3 and Shyanne has joined the clan and will be 3 months... I'm gonna try and have a new weekly post so keep coming back

Rough

The last week was way too busy. Sami had her 12 month appt. she weighs 19lbs 4oz and is 29.5 inches long and doing great!

Then on Saturday Sami started what they called "breath-holding spells" which i think is a load of rubbish! She cries, holds her breath and then her eyes roll back her face turns blue and she passes out! The ER doc told Charlie that this was a phase and she'd grow out of it, they didn't look at anything other than what a ped would at a well check... wouldn't you think they'd be more concerned? Or want to check her little noggin, nope they didn't!
She did it 3 times this weekend and it sucked!
And then I had to sit down with Mady and tell her that her Nana went to heaven, and let me tell you, explaining that to a 3 year old is hard. I told my mom that I quit lol! She seemed to take it okay, I just told her that next time she went to Buddy's she wouldn't see Nana because she wouldn't be there anymore and that she went to live with Jesus. And leave to Mady to ask me if it was the baby Jesus... I told her yes and baby Jesus really needed a Nana and that Mady had so many ppl that love her and that He saw how much Nana loved Mady that she would make Him a great Nana. She liked the idea that Nana got to help take care of Jesus, but at 3 how else can it be put into easy words lol... hopefully it'll be a long time (a really really long time) before I have to do that again.

Long week

It's been a long kind of endless week! I'm so glad that it's Saturday but not glad that it's almost over! We ordered new furniture, we should be getting it about mid-week! I'll post pics when I can...
I hurt my new car, I made it all the way home from work on awful roads and then I run into a big pile of snow coming into my driveway... it sucked!
The girls are great, Sami is walking now and I can't believe that she'll be a year old in 7 days, I'm so not ready for that... will have lots of pics to post on Sunday I'm sure

Ouch!

I feel like such a dummy today! And I've had something happen recently that makes me really want to get back into praying more often and maybe finding a new church to attend! Yesterday I fell down our stairs, there are 13 of them and I think I walked down 2 of them before I fell! Someone was definitely on my shoulder! It was really weird.... We were heading down for the day and Charlie asked me if I had socks for Mady, I didn't so had to go back and get them, for her and me. They had just made it downstairs when I was coming down, I started down and still have no idea what happened! I don't know if I missed a step or slid on a worn spot of carpet or what but I was walking and the next thing a know I'm sliding down, bouncing on each step, I end up going down sideways so when I landed, it was on my left hip! It hurt but I'm okay, bruised and sore but I don't think anything is broken! But when I think about how much worse it could be, OH MY! What if I had one of the girls or what if Charlie and the girls were still on the stairs! It's almost like I forgot the socks on purpose so that Charlie and the girls could make it safe! I don't know, it's just scary! I will probably post pictures tomorrow

Sledding!
