I bribed Eden with an ice cream bar if she ate her lunch, I didn’t tell her what kind they were (vanilla with a chocolate center covered in cookie mmmmm) after her lunch I got one out of the freezer and started to open it so she still couldn’t see what kind it was, she starts dancing and says ” I am so excited by butt cheeks are together” silly girl. So our truck is having problems again, I was at old navy driving out of the parking lot when it stared making a really weird noise so I pulled into lowes parking lot and called john to come get us, we had it towed to tischners where we always have it fixed. One of the spark plugs blew out of the hole, they called and said it was about 200 to fix so I said fix it. well they called again today and their is water in the cylinders caused by a leaking intake manefold
gasket and now it will be $875 to fix all of it, I was thinking with our luck it would be a lot worse so hopefully this is the last major problem this truck has!
So excited!! April 3, 2009
The mind of a 6 year old. March 12, 2009
Sometimes Eden says things that make me laugh and wonder how she came up with it. We were watching Casper today and in one part the girl says their is no such thing as ghosts, Eden turns to me and say I think boys turn into ghosts and girls turn into angles. A couple days ago it was windy and rainy and also sunny and warm at the same time. Eden told me that meant it was a lamb and tiger day. In other news our dryer broke 5 days ago so John took it apart to get to the heating element ( I thought that was the broken part because it wouldn’t heat up) that ended up not being the problem so we just decided to buy a new one, my uncle had a great deal on a Maytag one that came in with a dent. My dad and brother delivered it and installed it for us, I was so excited to do laundry but when we turned it on it made a loud grinding sound. So the next day a repair man came to look at it, he said the drum was dented and was rubbing when it was spinning but he fixed enough we could use it until he got a new drum in. I stayed up until midnight and did 6 loads of laundry that day!! I think its a laundry for me.
I miss her curls February 24, 2009
I was looking through all the pictures on my computer when I saw this one. Eden’s hair was so curly when she was younger but as soon as we cut it the curls were gone and I miss them. She looks older with out them but still cute. John’s hair is very curly, when he was little he rocked a fro. I hope this baby will have curly hair like he does, I think it’s so cute when babies have curls, but considering my genetics he will be lucky to have hair, all I had was peach fuzz.
sorry sandy February 17, 2009
I feel really guilty posting this after reading about my cousin Sandy’s week from hell with her sick boy. I never thought how lucky I was that Eden takes medicine with out hesitation. She had a fever last night and this morning so I gave her medicine witch she took and said mmmm yummy. So sandy I just have to say you should get a super mom award for having a sick child who doesn’t take medicine easily. Hope he gets feeling better soon!!
OH BOY!!! February 11, 2009
It’s a boy!! So not what I expected, but I am so excited!!! I have already bought a lot of girl clothes oops, guess I will have to sell them on ebay. Up side is now I get to go shopping for boy clothes. We had a big debate on names ( I already had girl names picked out ) so I need some opinions here are the ones we like and can agree on, My favorite is Milo but we also like Derick and Tyler. Any suggestions? John wanted to name him Thomas which is a cute name but it’s the name of our dog so not going to happen. I will try to post the ultrasound pictures as soon as I find my camera 
Edens b-day was yesterday she got spoiled rotten!!! My sister Jodi got her a shirt that says Bacon the candy of meat, Eden loved bacon she would eat it everyday for every meal if she could. I can’t believe she is 6 already, I just keep thinking when her baby brother is 6 she will be 12 going on 13, it scares me to think she will be a teenager someday!!!!!!!!
Bowling birthday party February 9, 2009
We had edens birthday party saturday at fat cats. We ended up with 10 kids at the party!! It was really fun and kinda crazy. We had cupcakes from the sweet tooth fairy bakery, they were so yummy. They make these little cake bites their that are to die for!! I call them crack cake bites. I have been to that bakery 3 times this month so far!! I offset them by walking my dogs at night so hopefully it wont do to much damage, like a 12 pound baby.
modest baby January 28, 2009
My sister in law who is a labor and delivery nurse called me last night when she was working and asked if we wanted to come to the hospital and use the ultra sound machine to see if we could find out what we were having, we drove right over. She tried for 15 minuets but the baby was being very modest and would not show us the goods!!! At first it was head down then it turned so its butt was back I think it turned in every position but the one we needed, I think its going to have an attitude because at one point it looked at us and started kicking and moving it’s hands like it was saying leave me alone! It was still really fun to see it even if we don’t know what it is yet, Eden really enjoyed being able to see it. My ultra sound is scheduled for February 10th which is also Eden’s birthday so hopefully we can see what is is by then.
Baby likes chicken curry January 26, 2009
I made chicken curry for dinner last night and about 20 minutes after eating the baby started kicking like crazy. I have felt a couple kicks before but usually only 2 or 3 at a time. I sat there for 5 minutes of kicks it was so fun I love being able to feel kicks like that. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow were they will schedule the ultrasound. I can’t wait to find out if it’s a boy or girl
Bad day… January 19, 2009
It all started at 5:00 am saturday morning with a sneeze. John woke up to go to work and as he was leaving he sneezed and his back went out. He yelled for me to come help him crawl to bed, it took 10 mintues and he was in a lot of pain it was awful!!! I had plans to go to sew all day with my mom, grandma and aunts but I felt way to bad to leave him alone even though he told me to go. So I played nurse untill he fianlly decided we could go to the urgent care and see a doctor. john has 4 hurniated disk and degenerative disk disese and the doctors arn’t very nice, we have been to 2 specialist (not cheap) just to be told their is nothing they can do. He is on a non-narcotic medicne that really helps but the doctor who he has to see every 2 months stills gives him crap for taking it,(i Think they judge him beacuse of his tatoo’s and shaved head) anyway they were really nice at the urgent care they gave him a shot in the bum and took x-rays that showed on one of his lower vertebrates their is bone missing like it has been ground away OUCH!! They wrote out 2 percriptions, 1 for a muscle relaxer and another pain reliver. I drove john home and went to go to walmart to fill the percriptions I took the back way because they are doing construction on the exit to walmart or so I thought, turns out they were doing the construction the way I decided to go I was almost their and saw the road closed sign grrr I turned around and decided to go to sams beacuse I needed milk and dog food to. I drove to sams and got my cart and went to the pharmacy, CLOSED!! GRRRR. I went and grabed milk then to get dog and cat food, when I grabed the cat food bag and put it in my cart cat food spilled everywhere their was a huge hole GRRRRRR, so I grabed another one and went and got in line, as I was waiting in line the guy behind me informed me that my milk was leaking everywhere….FANFREAKINTASTIC. I decided my best bet would be right aid so I drove across town and gave the pharmasist the perscriptions which would take only 15 minutes to fill, I wandered around the store for 10 minutes when they called me back I thought my luck had chandged…nope they told me they didn’t have one of them in stock, of course they didn’t DAMN IT ALL I GIVE UP!! I bought a snickers ice cream bar and some new lip gloss and went home. Funny what can happen when someone sneezes.
Now it seems real December 3, 2008
I had my first doctors appt. yesterday the standard pee in a cup, get poked in the arm 3 times before they decided to take the blood out of your hand ouch! And the most painful… step on the scale. The best part is I got to hear the heart beat It makes it so real now!! It’s crazy that after only 10 week their is a heart beat. I showed eden pictures on the internet of what the baby looks like, she says it looks like an alien.
