Kissy Face










Natalie and I spent an afternoon watching Sleeping Beauty ( I think it's winning out against "Ella"...see previous Blog...but then again they are all still Ellas )




anyways - the rest of the afternoon we had "kissy face wars" - lots of fun, highly recommend it...it was fun watching her run after Tim :) lol




She got me:

someone deserves it...

have you had a parent that when you were a child, in the back seat as your parent was driving - used to (as the commotion was escalating back there) just start swinging and hitting everything while they were driving and saying "if you get smacked it's because you deserved it" - never quite paying attention to who started the fighting, started the screaming, or started the whining, but rather just cared someone got hit! LOL
i was succombing to being that parent yesterday - the "flu like" sickness that has entered our house, buckered down and made a home here with a mailing address - has turned my two precious gifts from God into whining, fighting, slapping, cross little monsters -- did I mention the man of our family isn't much help --- so as i came into the midst of the "commotion" i was all about the slapping and swinging - too bad though I can't succomb to it completely :(
if the whining doesn't stop (( this is why santa was "created" it makes a good threat for parents!! )) and the fighting and pickering doesn't staop and if I have to clean up one more puke situation ((you should see our carpet))
....i'm going on vacation - to heck with Christmas.

Days go on...

My lil' big girl is handling this potty training way way better than her older brother did. There's something interesting about girls - they REALLY don't want to be messy. She has not had an accident with pee yet, and twice now she has hit the toilet with the poo....thing is, that every other time with the poo - she kinda of misses it either before or later - some gets in her pants, hands, legs, toilet, and handles of the toilet -- melt down!
Now, I know exactly when she has to poo --- she asks for the diaper.

Ella Pants

I'm almost - dare i say it - out of the diaper faze with my children.
Wow, can i say that out loud?!?

My lil Natalie is in big girl Pull Ups -- sleeping in diapers, and running around naked
through the day - but when she found out she was getting "Ella" pants -- she hit the lottery!

Ella pants...is her Cinder"ella" undies.
->on a side note I'm very against and pretty much have always boycotted the Cinderella fad....why? cuz I hate that Disney has only promoted HER throughout ALL of their merchandise? -- try finding even 1/2 the stuff of Cindy, with SlBeauty on it - and don't even get me started on Mulan or Pochy....me I have only promoted Belle with Natalie (brown hair, rose, etc) --- till now, now I give in :(

What shall one do on a Sept afternoon...

hmmm so the month of Sept 2007 - will be one I'll never forget.

On an afternoon in Sept I called the Dr.... "Why am i still bleeding after a month?"
After tests...I was surprised to find I was pregnant!! - Shockingly so! - Especially cuz of the blood I was having oh let's say for the past month before ...

couple days later - found that i had either miscarried or was miscarring...another schocker.
so, what does one do on a sept afternoon when an hour ago you were planning names - and now considering what went wrong?

oh but Sept wasn't done...

couple days later - they found that the baby (actually 2 cells, never multiplied past that) was lodged into my Fall tube on the right side .... Ecoptic.
Solution - surgery or a drug to disintegrate....-took the drug.

oh and yet Sept drifts on...

one week later after feeling pain - ultrasound says nope not gone yet...still there!

not 24 hours later - i was rushed to the ER.....

~ the final week of Sept....

Went in for surgery - my Fall tube burst and they had to go in and take it out. Was in the hospital for 24 hours recovering - and still feel the pain!

Does the days in Oct get better?...nope.
On Oct. 5th - i put myself in the ER for severe chest pain and hip pain....
after 3 exrays, Catscan, and blood taken - diagnosed with Pleurisy and Pinched nerves.


hmmm - so what should I have doen that one day in Sept - yep, i did the right thing.
