Happy Anniversary Baby!

Today is a very very special day!! Mine and Allen's 1 year anniversary!! The last year has been one of the best!

I know that there is nothing I can say that will do him justice, but I can try.

I am so glad you are in my life. You are the most handsome, amazing person ever!

You are the love of my life... my soulmate... my best friend!!

You can always make me laugh.. even if it's forced :)

You are so good with my children. You love my children.. and you have no idea how much that means to me! There are not many men that would treat my kids as well as you have. Men like you are rare, and I am so glad that I have found you.

I cannot imagine myself with anyone else. You are the one I can see myself growing old with.

I love you more than you know.

You seem to get me.. or at least try your hardest.

You eat my cooking! :) haha!

You listen to me when no one else will. I know I get long winded and freak out easily about stuff sometimes, but you are so good to just listen.

If I am having a bad day, you always seem to know what to say to make it better.. I always feel better after talking to you...

You have a smile that just melts my heart. It's the most amazing smile ever!

You are patient.. :) (to an extent :) ) You dont' fuss when we can't go out. Which i wish we could do more often, I love every moment I get to spend with you.. whether it's at the house with kids or out by ourselves...

You give the best hugs in the world :) and I love cuddlIing up with you!

And you know what i like best?

YOU LOVE ME TOO :)

Sweetheart, I can't wait to see what the future holds for us.. but I am so glad you are around and I'm so glad most of all that you are mine!!

I know I can't do much of anything else for our anniversary, but hey, thats why i'm in school.. to make us the big bucks here in a couple years :) But, I do what you to know that you are loved so very much by me!! You are absolutely amazing, and I am so in love with you! :)

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY SWEETHEART! 1 year and counting...

Busy Busy!!

As I sit here amongst my mountain of homework and studying, I decided I should take a break and update my blog!! I just finished one final!! My first aid class is officially over as of TOMORROW morning as soon as I take my first aid test and turn in my final!! That means only 4 more finals(psychology, bio 202 final, bio 202 lab final, and math) to go!!!! I can't wait!! I can finally see the end of the semester!! It's so close I can almost taste it and can almost feel the sun on my face and the sand beneath my toes!!



Jade is having surgery next Wed, April 29!!! She is having tubes put in her ears and her adnoids taken out!! We are so ready for this... she has been so sick for so long and needs this so badly!! Hopefully this will be the end to all or most of the sickness!! Please keep her in your prayers!!
I went to pick her up yesterday from her Mama Shirleys after school since I couldn't make it in time to pick her up from school myself, and to my suprise when i picked her up she had gained a new piece of clothing. I should have taken a picture! She looked absolutely ridiculous, but i was so embarrassed I didn't think to take a picture! I had dressed her yesterday morning in her chocolate brown Hannah Montanna shirt with some black leggings. When I picked her up at Mama Shirley's she had a BRIGHT red spaghetti strap tank top on over her shirt I had put on her this morning! Of course I asked her why she did that and if her Nana let her leave the house dressed like that to which I was informed she took it to school in her back pack and had put the shirt on there over her other one! So i guess now I will have to start checking her backpack before school! I can't believe she walked around school like that all day yesterday and NO ONE bothered to tell her she looked absolutely ridiculous! What a funny girl!



Macy is such a funny little girl lately. Her favorite words this week are "Beee Peesh!" (read please) She loves being read to. She is learning her colors. She likes "Wewwow" and "puhpuh" (yellow and purple) the best. Everything is yellow and purple to her!! She has been extremely whiny this week, I think because of her ears.. I'm thinking another doctor visit will happen by Monday. she will be done with her antibiotic on Friday and if it's not better by then we will be back at the doctors office I have a feeling! she is so much fun lately though.. always doing something new, mimicking us. She is such a joy to be around.



This past weekend, my best friend Stephanie and her boyfriend Ryan came to see me and the girls! I had an absolute blast and am so glad she got to come down! I have missed her so much and Jade has missed her Aunt Stephanie as well! I so wished we lived closer so that we could spend more time together like we used to. I'm SO GLAD i got to see her this weekend!

Well, I'm off here for now.. check back tomorrow for a new post! Tomorrow is a special day!!

Conversations With A 1 Year Old...

Today after arriving home from school, I was holding Macy and getting some cuddle time in before time to get jade from school. She got really really warm in the diaper area all the sudden (all you mommies know what that means!)... Here was our conversation about it:

Me: Macy are you tee teeing?
Macy: no
Me: Macy, is your diaper getting wet?
Macy: yes
Me: so are you tee teeing in your diaper:
Macy: no
Me: then who is?
Macy: Alle!!

If you dont' know, Alle is Macy speak for Allen!
I almost choked I was laughing so hard.. She is just 1 and already she is blaming someone else for what she does!!

out of the mouths of babies...

What a long day this has been. In all the madness, it made me think of how thankful I am to have the exact 2 kids I have. Through all the crying and whining and messes, the day I just spent watching other peoples kids makes me that much more thankful for my own.

Macy is my little cutie pie these days... She adds new words every day.

*She loves her stuffed "elpie" (elephant)
*She now informs me when she is "skinkie" (stinkie) and adds a UGH at the end!! (she hears me talk entirely too much!! )
*She loves for me to sing to her.. (jade never liked my singing) Macy is the only one who appreciates my singing.
*"Momm-ay" is still her favorite person (GRIN!)
*"Alle" (Allen) is still a very close second. and for some reason she looks for him in the mornings most every morning. She always looks out the window and asks "Alle?" every morning.
She is faster than lightening and into everything!!
* if off her normal routine, it could very well be disaterous!
* her snakes hiss like cats.. and she uses the same noise to say "shh"
* her cows just say "mmmm"
*her ducks "Kack"
* her cats "manow"
* and her new favorite words are "no no" and she sounds like such a big girl.
* she loves her "DAAAADE" (Jade - and yes she screams her name... EVERY TIME)... she asks for jade all day til she comes home from school

Jade is such a smart little girl
* She can count to a thousand if i would let her...
* She can read and has been for 2 years, but she is really good at it now!!
* She asks a million questions a day!
* She is getting real artsy fartsy on me! She LOVES to color and play with clay (play doh is the devil.. such a mess!!)and paint and draw.. and whatever else i would let her do!!
* Light brights are the perfect thing for when she is tired and ill and needs some alone time
* she is 6!!
* she still says "Firsht" (for first) and "Pursh" (for purse).. and i realized today how much I will miss that when she is older!
* she still has her baby lisp...
*glip gloss (lip gloss) makes her day..
* she says overalls make her look like a warthog. (but i still make her wear them cause they are so darn cute on her!)
* she is SASSY
*ranch dressing is a must on EVERYTHING as far as she is concerned

I am so very thankful for my kids.. we have had alot of trying days here lately, and days where my nerves are absolutely shot.. but then i remember all of this stuff.. and i just love them that mucch more!! I have the two most absolutely gorgeous amazing little girls that are on the planet!

I pretty much must be the luckiest girl alive.. 2 amazing kids, and the most amazing boyfriend.. I love them all so much!! I LOVE my life.. :)
