Slideshow from our trip to the Seattle Science Center

So in August my parents came up from Memphis. We had a great time at my Dad's band reunion, and then spent a day at the Science Center with the kids. It was a lot of fun.

30

Well as of 10/01 I am now 30. I am taking this as a life step, and focusing on the future a bit more. I began working out about a month and a half ago, drinking my Yerba Mate Tea, and have lost 4 lbs. :) My pants are now too big. :) Love it! What girl wouldn't? Now I have to fix my clothes to fit better. We had some friends over for a get together. Mexican Food and drinks. My kinda party. We played some Scene It. Unfortunately parties with children in the other room don't last too late, so I think everyone was gone by 10:00. Just made me laugh. We had a great time though.

I am thinking about getting some new body jewelery. Nose ring. :) I've thought about it for a long time and now think it's time to do it. Also I want to get a new tattoo within the next year. :) I am not even sure if I want to hide all the gray hair that is coming in. We'll see....any thoughts about that?

My outlook from now on is to be healthy by working out, even if it is to Carmen Electra Strip Tease, spending quality time with my family, because they are my life. Oh, Also to have fun! Life will go on, things will change. But you always have to be able to laugh it off, you know what you will be, what you will do, are capable of doing. God has his plan laid out, and I sure wish i knew what was next....Anyway, basically just to live life, every day like you might not have the next. Enjoy the present.

You can be hurt many ways... by many different people. 
Sometimes it hurts a little and sometimes it hurts a lot. 
Sometimes people don't realize the things you gave up, the things you had to put up with. Sometimes you wonder if they even KNOW. It hurts when people talk behind your back. It hurts when they lie to your face. It hurts when you love someone, but they are doing so wrong in life, that they wont even speak to you. I am not here to judge. I am here as a human being. Humans should not judge each other. I am allowed my opinions, as everybody is. It hurts that I can't express my true feelings without everyone being upset with me. I know I am an emotional person. That's just who I am... Emotional, caring, and honest. Being hurt and depressed sucks. So for now, I'm cutting out the people that are doing this. I am focusing on Christ. I know that he will accept me for who I am, love me, and watch over me.

Long time no blog...

Wow, okay it's been 9 months since I've posted! I'm now a crafty stay at home mom, looking for a job, but enjoying my time with my family while I look. This recession has given me some time to do some sewing, painting, and  general crafting!  I love being able to watch my kids learn new things, and have been teaching Joshua so many things. He's pretty much ready for Kindergarten, but can't start until next year due to his birthday! Alexavier is getting so big! Driving me nuts as he explores and makes me put more and more stuff "away" until he understands the word "No"! I promise I will post more, probably daily really. What else do I have to do? (Yeah Right!) 

Took Alex to the Dr today... he's a whopping 23lbs! No shots, just fluoride on his teeth which I have never heard of before, but hey what do I know. The Dr even gave him a peek-a-boo puppy book.  I would strongly recommend the CCMC at Mary Bridge for any of you Tacoma Mama's looking for a new Dr. They are GREAT with the kids! 



Joshua's birthday is coming up, and he wants his party at Chuck E Cheese. That being said, his party is going to be scaled down this year, about 7 kids instead of the usual 15 or so.  It will be fun. There are certain adults he has requested to be there, which I think is so cute. I'll be sending out e-vites later this week. He has told me about 1000 things he wants for his birthday. I keep reminding him it isn't Christmas! Just a few of the things he has mentioned... Nerf guns, blendy pens, Lego Indiana Jones, Space Legos. You name it, he wants it. Oh and big stuff too, and R/C Boat, Tank, Truck, AND Car! 


Hubby is getting better. He's in PT now has some mobility back in his shoulder, so that's good. This time we have been able to spend together has made our relationship so strong. This is our 11th year together this October. I think a weekend away is in order. 


For now I'm done. I am getting ready for a trip to Pt Defiance Park. We are having snacks and letting JJ run around. I think it wont be long until Alex can do the same!!
