Trying something different.....

I am using my cell to type this. I have moved up in the world and now have a smartphone. You can do so much on this thing it is so cool. I only pay 25 a month for service and I get unlimited internet and text and 300 mins which is more then enough. but anyways I wanted to try it this way. 

Took the kids to a Easter egg hunt that one of the kids that Chris goes to school with was having. The kids had so much fun. Hay wasnt sure what to do so I had to help her a little. Chris found 30 eggs which was real good. We are going to church tomorrow and I am really looking forward to it.

I go Monday to have 2 teeth removed. I am so not looking forward to that. Mom is going with me and Neil is taking Chris to school. If I keep going I wont have any teeth left...lol 

Well, that is it for now. Gotta get some sleep. Much love to you all.XOXOXO

Mother/Daughter Trip 2011

Mom the kids and I are in Orlando for a 4 day weekend. We came down today and went to the Outlet Mall and did a little exploring. We are going to the Holyland Experience tomorrow and spend the day. We are really looking forward to going and seeing this wonderful place. We have heard and read good reviews on it. We had dinner at Golden Corral and then went and walked around the area where our hotel is. I really miss Neil but he gets some time to himself to enjoy. More to come tomorrow.

My.....

Momma is on her way. I hope and pray she has safe travels. I really need her company to keep me busy. Ever since Crystal and Ashley left I have no one to hang out with. Neil is so involved with going to the gym to make sure he passes his PT test he has no time for anything else. I have never seen someone so dedicated. If I could be more like him I would def not gain any of the weight back that I lost. I am doing good about keeping it off. I am down 6 sizes and of course none of my clothes fit anymore. I am to afraid to buy any new clothes afraid to jinx myself....lol


Chris, is at school and I have to go get him here in a little bit. He was a little sad when I told him that Mamaw wouldnt be here when he got home that it would be later tonight. I might let him stay up so he can see her when she gets here as long as it isnt to late. I have to make a run to the BX and pick up a few things. Debating on going before I go pick him up or after. I will probably just wait until after. I would get the stuff at the commissary but it isnt open on Mondays. I wish that it was closed on Sundays instead.


Well, gonna go. Gotta get cleaned up and get ready to go get Bub. I have been working getting this house cleaned. The kids have been helping me since I have been having alot of back pain. They are so sweet wanting to help Mommy. Gotta love them.


Until next time.... Much love to you all....XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

So excited!!!

My momma is coming down tomorrow and we are so excited to see her. Then her the kids and me are going to Orlando nest weekend to the Holy Land Experience. I am so looking forward to that. I will have to take Chris out of school but the school year is almost over. The kids are so excited and have counted down the days until she gets here.


I started seeing my Therapist this past week. And I have to say she is AWESOME!!!! If you are wondering why I am seeing one.. Well no it isnt because I have went crazy. Just like I told Neil just because a person sees a therapist doesnt mean you are nuts. I see her because my doctor wanted me to for my anxiety. I had a bad first of the year last year with the miscarriage. And I think that is what led up to the anxiety or triggered it. When I had the first miscarriage I went into a depression. I locked myself up in our room and that was were I stayed. I hated going out because of course being on a military base there were pregnant women everywhere. And I am not exaggerating. I would get so down that I just wanted to go home. I couldnt understand why it was so easy for some to get pregnant and so hard for me. I had never felt so alone in my life. Neil wasnt there for me because he couldnt understand what I was going through. And my family was back in the states. I had no friends in Germany at that time because we hadnt been there that long. And then I felt the same way this time. The only thing that helped was Chris and Haylee. But even then there were nights I would just sit and cry. I couldnt understand why yet again this was happening. And yes my family was there for me but there is only so much they can do when they are in another state. I remember watching the episode of Army Wives where one of the characters goes through a miscarriage and how her friends came together and supported her and was there for her. That is the way it is suppose to be. But I have never had close friends since Neil joined. Some I thought were but later found out they werent. I do feel I have found a friend who I can count on. And I will be glad when she gets back here. We are planning a trip to Disney with her and her family later this year. So that gives me something to look forward to. Because you all know how much I LOVE Disney....lol But anyways I think that is what brought on the anxiety or triggered it. 


Sorry it just seems since all this has happened I have figured out who some people really are. And if I wasnt so nice and polite I might would tell them a ear full......lol I have learned it isnt good to keep everything inside. But if I let some things out some people wouldnt like it. Oh wow there I go again going to get off my soapbox now.....LOL


Ok so lets see...... Chris goes back to school tomorrow he has been on Spring Break this week. I will miss not having him at home. And I am sure Hay will be lonely again. He is so smart and silly. He can say some of the funniest things. He is learning to write and read and stuff. He doesnt want to grip a pencil. I am not sure if he is afraid he will break it or what. He has no problems holding on to other things. He is getting better at it though. 


Hay is doing great. She talks up a storm and half the time I am not sure what she is talking about. She is potty training and doing good. I am not rushing her just letting her go at her own pace. I have her stocked up on pullups for awhile so it is nice not having to buy them at all. I am hoping to have her fully trained by the time I would need to buy some. I dont buy into the whole having them trained by 2. Not every child is the same so when one might be trained by that age another might not. I learned that with Chris. 


Neil, is the same ole same ole working his butt off. He will be glad when the guys that just got back come back to work. They are kinda short handed and it makes it hard on him. Plus he is in a new shop so he is trying to learn the job. But he is getting there and it doesnt take him long to learn. 


As for me I am going this week to get registered for school. I have put it off long enough but not because I wanted to. I am not sure when the next semester starts. I am gonna take night classes so Neil can keep the kids. I want to get my nursing degree before Neil retires....lol Hard to believe he only has 8 more years. I think he said the other day it was under 3000 days. I still do my coupons and have my stockpile built up. I am up to saving over 100.00 on my grocery bill now. 


I think that about covers it. Just really looking forward to seeing my Momma. I havent seen her in almost a year. I have been sick she has been sick so it has been hard for us to get to see each other. But I will go for now. I will try and update this thing more. I just cant never remember to get on here unless I get something on my mind. 


So until next time....... Much love to you all.....XOXOXOXOXOXO

Some videos that I found......

Wow.......

has it been awhile since I have updated this thing. I honestly just forget about it and most things I post on facebook. But I know some that read this are not on facebook. Let me see if I can get everyone up to date on everything.

Chris has started pre k and has been for his first week. He loves it and always is excited when he gets to go back. He is gone from 8-3 and I take him and go pick him up. It is odd when Hay asks wheres Bubby and I tell her he is at school. I really miss him but it gives me that time with Hay and I am able to get alot of my errands done during the week.

We also got to go to Sea World last weekend with our good friends the Landreths. And we had an awesome time with them and their kids. Another couple was going but because we didnt know if the guys had to work it didnt work out for us to go with them. But they got to go on their own and had a good time also and I am really glad. And since we didnt get to go to Disney this month we are planning a trip with the Landreths for Nov-Dec. I am really looking forward to that because any one that knows me knows that Disney is my favorite place. 

Well, gonna go for now. Much love to you all......XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Got to thinking......

about alot of things actually. 


When you are a military wife it is hard to make friends. You move all over the place and if you dont work it is even harder. Being a military wife you need people to step in for your family. Alot of the times we get stationed where family cant come visit may it be because of financial reasons or maybe because they have to fly. So we need to surround ourselves with people who we can lean on and trust. I try to be that way with people I meet. I feel I am there for them in anyway they need me and in return I dont get the same treatment. This past year has showed me that. But through it I have met some awesome ladies who I feel I can count on. They are my coupon ladies...lol It has made me more cautious though when making friends but I will not change who I am. I like to help people in any way I can. I have always been that way. I often wonder if it is because I dont drink and party and all that. I was never one that got into that. I dont know I guess I am better off without those people in my life. 


I took Chris yesterday and got him registered for school. He will be our big Kindergardner in the fall. That will only leave Hay and me here. He is really looking forward to going. We were going to homeschool them but Chris really wants to go to school. So we are going to see how this year goes. How he does and if he will truly like it. I will miss him something awful but it will be good on him. Then I will have 2 years with Hay before she starts. Which I had 2 years with Chris before I had her.  That is why I am glad we had them 2 years apart. I can also start on my schooling which I cant wait to start. Get that out of the way and when Neil retires I can work fulltime. 


Our trip to Disney had to be postponed. Neil isnt able to take leave since there is so much going on. That is ok the weather is not all that warm right now. And I would rather wait until a little later anyways. We are going to Downtown Disney with some friends of ours later this month. That is how we get our Disney fix until we can actually go. 


My heart is breaking for some friends of mine. There were 2 friends from back home that lost their babies. One was 30 some weeks along and the other was 20. Suffering a loss like that is so devastating. I have lost 3 babies but they were early on which I thought was hard. But I could not even imagine what these ladies have went through. To carry your baby for that long feeling it move and hearing its heart beating and then to find out the baby didnt make it. It is something that I will never understand. How women who dont deserve or want to be pregnant and can get pregnant at the drop of a hat and have no problems. Then the ones that desire a child so bad cant have kids or they lose them. Losing a child is not something I would wish on my worst enemy. 


These were just some things that have been on my mind. Much Love to you All.......XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
