Girlfriends Rock!!

The Girls

Me, Trisha & Lynn

Yesterday I met Lynn & Trisha for lunch to celebrate

my birthday....late yes but I was out of town(once again!).

We went to Cozumel's in Grapevine and can I just say it was FABuLOUS! We had Guacamole, which I could NOT stop eating-YUM! As Lynn & I were walking in we both thought that Margaritas sounded YUMO. We couldn't decide on which one we wanted and Lynn discovered the "sampler" It came with 5 samples of their different margaritas in this bridge type of thingy. They were soooo good!

Can I just say that them girls went overboard!!! OH MY!!!! Lynn made me several

gifts; desk organizer, lrg paper clip, mini-book and a beautiful card. She also bought

me a coffee stamp set, the most fabulous owl pillow...which Cayden confiscated

from me as soon as he saw it. Then Colton had to get his hands on it...later they were whining over it so I had to take it back for myself...darn! Trisha made me a HUGE

'S' covered in metal....I LUV! and soooo many other wonderful things.

Lots of goodies!

It is great to be surrounded by such wonderful

women. And to know that they luv me despite ALL of my

flaws just ROCKS and makes me feel good inside.

So thank you girls! I love you! And feel
so privileged to be friends with such
beautiful souls!


God Bless!

CONFESSION!!!

I have to confess......that I did not understand the 'obsession' of The Twilight Series in the beginning. My lil' sis saw Twilight in the theater and said how great n wonderful it was. I wasn't convinced but all the gals kept talkin bout it and i felt left out so I finally gave in. so when it came out on DVD I bought it, which for me is sooooo out of the ordinary. After watching it, I still didn't really get it. I thought that it was ok, but what was ALL the hype about? I wasn't sure. I guessed that I was to OLD for all all this. have never been much of a reader despite my desire to be. I was very impressed with myself to complete this series. I am holding twilight in my hands trying not to re-read them. I can not believe that my self. I am sooooo busy, I don't have time to re-read something!! But I cant help but keep WANTING to do so. I don't' necessary like them in real life like the rest of the world, but I never did fit in. But I am in LOVE with the LOVE, the love that they both have for Bella. I don't believe in "soul mates" but I am married to my BF. Which is Jacob in my eyes. I would love to believe in Edward but I just think that he is an self absorbed azz! I know that people are going to hate me for that.....oh well.
xoxoxo

TEAM JACOB.....

....in case anyone wondered!!!!!!!

Twilight Fan

I have been watching the new moon clips that I have found online tonight and more so than before I think that christine (sp) is messed up. She looks messed up. I dont know that is just my persection. I love all of the characters and cant wait for the new moon but she just seems messed up. is it just me? I am pretty judgemental for the most part but I dont think that i have this one wrong. I am feeling bad for her, i just want to hug her and make her better.

Boys on the farm

Thanks to Cody's dad for sharing these pictures with me.

I had asked them to try to take a picture of Colton inside the tractor

tire and they came through for me.

I am SOOO excited for these pictures.

I have a pic of Cayden in this same JD tractor tire when he was 'little' I can't wait to

compare the 2.

Cayden, with Nana Forrest, Bubba Colton, Laurence & Pauline. Thanks for sharing the outdoors with my boys. We love you!!!

I have.....OOTD

Over Obsessive Twilight Disorder!!!!!!

Greensburg....

...that is where the boys r. They left yesterday evening with my MIL & FIL for the weekend. For those of u who know me know just how BIG of a step this is for me. My MIL said it right, one of the ladies at the shop couldn't believe that I was going to let them take the boys over night cause her DIL would NEVER allow that to happen. I told her that I hoped she realize just how big of a step this was for me. I am proud of myself, I haven't even called to check on them. I have thought about it several times but been to busy painting & stuff that I have been able to redirect my thoughts to something else. And when my heart starts beating faster, I just have to take a deep breath and try to stop myself from hyperventilating. It will be ok.....I WILL B OK!

The Proposal

My lil sis & I went to the movies last nite and watch The Proposal with Sandra Bullock. It was soooo funny I was cryin' I bout wet myself. I can't wait till it comes out on DVD so that I can watch it again. It was sooo nice to get out and be able to hang out with my sis. Though she is not very talkative these days....not sure why that is?!?! So to anyone who is ready for lots of laughs should go c this movie.

Happy 4th!!

Potty Time

I almost forgot to share the good news!!!
We arrived in KS on Wens afternoon and out of the blue that evening Cayden requested to go sit on the potty(with his motioning & 'uh'uh' communication skills). This was no big deal to me as he wants to sit on the potty more often than not. My mom took him and I can hear her saying, "Good Boy!" I go runny back there and he is all smiles...he looks down at his 'noodle' grunts and tinkles again, says "Wow!" and does it again. I bet we went back to the potty 5 or 6x in a short amount of time and EVERY time he tinkled in the potty. I was so PROUD!
Of course my family thought that I MUST run to the store and buy pull ups for him. I think that jinks us....he hasn't done much since that night. Although the next morning when he woke up the first thing that he wanted to do was sit on the potty....nothing. And before we got in the shower he sat on the potty with only minimal results. Now he seems to have no interest in sitting on the potty no matter how interesting & fun I make it sound.
Keeping my fingers crossed!!!

FaceBook

Ok.....so I FINALLY signed up on facebook. I have to be honest and say that I am not sure that I am that fond of it. I guess with time it will grow on me. It would probably help if I was online more so that I could keep up or fiqure out what was going on.

I finally got the blog stuff down and now it is facebook......I am never going to be able to keep up.

Maybe when the boys get bigger they can teach me all this stuff...hehe!!!

KS Trip

What was I thinking?! Traveling 5+ hours with 2 baby boys in the backseat....next to each other. Seemed like a good idea at the time. That was the LONGEST trip of my life! Cayden cried, no screamed, for the first 2 hrs.....nothing that I tried to offer him worked, I even pulled over to try to satisfy him...no go! During all this commotion, Colton was asleep within the first 20 mins of the trip. Finally Cayden calmed down and gave in to his sleepy eyes....just about to enjoy the peace & quiet.....then the crys began again only this time it was Colton, so much for Cayden sleeping! I let it go on for awhile then I finally pulled off onto the "scenic overlook", which by the way there was nothing scenic about it! Let Cayden out of his seat to stand awhile, made Colton a bottle. Standing there, sweating in the heat & the heat from the car, Colton not really drinking his bottle, Cayden still not satisfied. After 10 mins or so and neither one of them really appreciating the fact that I had pulled over and was pulling out ALL of the stops to please them I decided to give up and just drive with the music LOUD! I tried dancing & singing to make them happy but I guess that I am just not that entertaining. Finally they both passed out! YEAH!! Not for long though, Cayden would randomly wake up and cry until he fell back to sleep. OH MY! I have no idea what the deal was but I about lost my mind! I told Cody & Mom that I wasn't sure if I would b able to make the trip back home by myself without losing my mind........
