My sister and I have the privilege of having our birthdays right next to each other. Mine is on the 27th and hers on the 28th. So for our party we went to Iggys to watch the Jazz game. It was a load of fun and we had the coolest waitress. She turned 33 and I turned 25!

This is a Gerber Daisy from the bouquet of flowers Jeremy gave me for my birthday!

This is the flowers that Jeremy gave me and the balloon that Ashley gave me.
Jeremy took me out to eat at my faverit place to eat, Texas Road House!
They brought me an Ice cream for my birthday, how sweet of them!
This is what I had to eat at Iggys, Lime Tequilla Chicken, or something like that.

A house?

Well we went to the bank today to see if we could qualify for a house, and WE DID!!! But I only qualified for 120 which is not bad considering our credit. But the bank said that if we did an FHA loan we could get more. So we are trying that. I know it is probably to soon but I found a house that I love all ready and it is 110. So I am going to be making some calls tomorrow to see if we can go and take a tour of the house. Hopefully it will work out! It is a 4 bed 3 bad 2500 sq feet, So I am praying my heart out we can get that house! Here is a pic of the house, but it is not finished yet. So keep that in mind as you look at it!

Congratulations!

Just wanted to say Congratulations to two of my cousins who got engaged, over the past month, Congrats Ryan and Aaron!! I hope you will find a life time of Happiness with Stephanie and Rebecca!

Before I was a mom

Before I was a Mom,
I never tripped over toys
or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not
my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.


Before I was a Mom,
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind
and my thoughts.
I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom,
I never held down a screaming child
so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night
watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mom,
I never held a sleeping baby just because
I didn't want to put her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces
when I couldn't stop the hurt.!
I never knew that something so small
could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom,
I didn't know the feeling of
having my heart outside my body..
I didn't know how special it could feel
to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond
between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small
could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mom,
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth,
the joy,
the love,
the heartache,
the wonderment
or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much,
before I was a Mom .


Like the above poem states, How much it means to be a mom, you can never truly put in to words that you feel when your little one comes up to you and says "I love you Mom".

I love you Ashley! Thank you for teaching me to be a better person, thank you for helping me to learn patients. And thank you so much for all your wonderful hugs and words of encouragement. You may only be two, but you have taught me more in your short two years about love, then I have known before you came down to join our family. I cant wait for the next 18 years, you make me so proud! I love you princess head!!

Date Night

Jeremy decided today that it has been a long time since we had date night. So he took me to the Chinas gormet, it was a pretty good place I had not been there for a long time. We got my mom to watch Ashley and we went out. It was so nice just to have the two of us and not to have a two year old climbing all over us. Thank you for the fun night honey! I love you!

Sinus infection

I have had a horrible sinus infection for almost a month now, three three and a half weeks. No matter what I have tried it will do go away. I talked to my dr got a prescription for amoxacillian, I have taken all of the pills and it is still not gone. I have done what the dr said, and that was to drink Peppermint tea, (I know that my religion asks us not to drink it, and I had a very hard time agreeing with doing it, but if the dr said it would help I will try it as long as I dont get in the habit of it, Which I wont for I cant stand the stuff!!!) So I drank it and it helped a speck, but not enough to do it again. So now I am suffering with the infection, and it has gotten so bad that the pressur is building up so much that I now have double vision, which might explain some of my typing mistakes, sorry about that! So any one have any home remadies that work? I will be going back to the dr on monday or wednesday when ever she can get me in. But in the mean time, I have to suffer with this dang infection!

Do you know any thing easy to cook?

For any one who has met me knows I can not cook worth anything. Does any one out there have any good recipes that I could use?
