Fill in the Blank Friday

Happy Friday! Link up here to play along.

1. My current obsession is pickles. I can't get enough pickles.

2.  Not working makes me happy.

3. My greatest strength is being stubborn. I always get things done because I am to stubborn to have it any other way.

4.  Being a grudge holder  is my greatest weakness.

5. My life is  great. I love being a stay at home Mom/Wife!! I have the best Husband, daughter, family and friends ever!!

6. In high school I was  all about the parties. I did not care about much of anything else but  when and where the next party was!:) Good times!

7. When I'm super tired I tend to get a little bitchy!

Happy Friday!

Happy Hump Day!

Sometimes just a random picture message can make your day...well it can make my day. I guess that its one of the small things that I just love. Yesterday I was having an ok day. Nothing special but I got a picture message on my phone yesterday evening and it just set the moon for the rest of the night. And it was great. A picture that if I sent it to anyone else, they would not appreciate. It really is the small things that mean the most. This is what made me smile from ear to ear........................

**Alexander Skarsgard**

When most people look at this they will just see a random guy flipping people off.....When I see this I see someone that is so freaking hot, who is a total bad ass and  the only other man in the world that I would love to have in my bed (other than my husband)!!!!!!!!!!!!! This picture alone can make me smile anytime of day!!!



He is perfect!! That is all there is to it! He has got it all!

Happy Tuesday

Yesterday was my first day helping out in Abby's class with Art. It was an adventure to say the least. I am very very lucky to have a well behaved child. She is a handful sometimes but nothing compared to some of the kids in her class. I will be back up there on Thursday and boy am I glad that I did not have to go back up there today...I needed a break. Haha. It was fun being able to see what all they do in class and meeting the kids. Abby really enjoyed it too.

I am so ready to start feeling like myself again.. I am tired of the night sweats and nausea. I have recently stopped taking my Celexa. I have been on it for a couple of years and since Justin and I are trying to have a baby I decided to just get off of it all together. Most Drs say that you can stay on it till your 3rd month but I don't want to have to deal with all the side effects along with being preggo. So I guess that there is no better time then now. I will never get back on anything like this unless it is a HAVE TO type of deal. I have been feeling terrible. I have not taken it in about 2 weeks or a little longer so I am hoping that I start feeling better soon. :)

We have no plans this afternoon and I am so glad. I think that we all really need sometime just to relax. Abby seems to be feeling better. She is still a little nauseous at times but I am pretty sure that is from the high dose of antibiotics. Poor baby girl, she is ready to not have to take medicine 3 times a flippin day!! This script she has to take for 14 days so she has a while till she is all done with them. :(

Yesterday my husband posted the sweetest thing on Facebook....

"Today 10 years ago my wife and I started an adventure that has had it's ups and downs but we are still moving forward and I still love her as much now as I did then. I love you baby."


Aww, how sweet is that??? It made my day. :) Yes, he is right we have had an adventure. I am really surprised that the both of us are alive to tell about it. :) I hope that the next ten years are a little less dramatic and a lot easier.....and I hope the next year includes us having our second child!!!

Weekend Wrap Up

What a weekend.....

My weekend started out super. :) Friday morning I got to help out at school with Teddy Bear Day!! We had a great time. I am so thankful that I am able to be a part of all the activities!! I am blessed!

Here is her class :) Sorry about the pic quality they are from my phone.



The Cutest Teddy Bears I have ever seen!!!



This was my favorite when I was her age!!!



Friday evening I met Steph at the Oyster Bar for a much needed dinner date! We had drinks, food, laughs and tears! It was great!!! I had a wonderful time. It is amazing how just sitting and talking can make you feel so much better. Thanks for the invite Steph! I hope that we can do it again soon!!!

Saturday morning we were up early for Abby's soccer game. She did not seem to be feeling 100% but she went out there and played and had lots of fun:) Here are a couple of pics.

Abby before the game:)

Getting her Saturday morning cartoon fix:)

Game Time!



She has her eye on the ball!! ;)



Taking a lil break!:)

After the soccer game we headed home to take a nap...we were all tired from having to get up so early, we are not used to getting up early on the weekends. After the nap Abby woke up feeling bad again. She was running a fever and throwing up again so we headed to the ER around 2:30. I was worried that her UTI from almost two weeks ago was not cleared up and that she was getting sick with that all over again. And after being there till almost 8:00 pm we found out that she did still have the UTI and that she had some blood in her urine. We had a terrible time up there. They had to draw blood and give her some fluids...For most of the time that we were up there I am pretty sure that I was in tears. She was breaking my heart. I hate hate hate when my baby girl is sick. When we first got there she was not too bad but the longer we were there the worse she got and she was not happy to find out that she was going to have to have an IV and blood drawn. 



She was doing alright here....



She was a little worn out with the place...



Breaking my heart!!!!!!!

She seems to be feeling a little better today. She has not been eating much but she is drinking plenty and watching football with her Daddy and I. :) I hope that tomorrow she will be feeling good enough to go to school. She will not want to stay home. 

Today we are hanging out at the house being lazy and watching football and baseball!!! I am loving it. Hope everyone has a great Sunday evening!!!

Thank you Steph!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Teddy Bear Day:)

This week at Abby's school science unit has been learning about textures and the sense of touch. Tomorrow they are having some activities with Teddy Bears. Abby gets to bring a Teddy Bear to school and they will being having "Teddy Bear Games" for most of the morning.



Abby is really excited about it and so am I. I get to be a part of it and help out with it all. I don't remember doing things like this at school when I was her age. Maybe we did but I just don't remember. I am sure it will be great. She has been trying to decide which teddy bear she is going to take. Ha ha. How nice would it be only to have to worry about which teddy bear to choose??? That would be wonderful. Oh to be a kid again.

I will be sure to take some pics and post them tomorrow when I get home. To make things even better....I am having lunch with Abby tomorrow. So I guess I will be hitting up McDonald's to get her a happy meal. I can't wait. I am sure it will be a fun fun day.

Busy Day...

Well today I am gonna be busy. I am about to head out to my Mom's house and start moving things to storage and within the next month we should be all moved in out there. :) Today Justin recruited a couple of guys from work to come and help move the pool table out of what used to be the game room and what will be our room. I am so glad that we are finally getting things going with this. We are all ready to get the show on the road. After the pool table is moved then the rest my Mom and I will be able to handle on our own during the week while everyone else is at work and school. 

The weather today is so great.....if I was in bed sleeping. It is very cloudy and rainy and nice and cool...my favorite time to sleep.

I guess I am headed to grab a latte for my Mom and I and then we are gonna get to work!

Happy Thursday!!



12 Days

After 12 days of being gone from the Endoscopy Center I stopped by to visit. It was nice. After working there for six years and seeing the same people daily, it is a big change not seeing them anymore. It was nice just to be able to stop by and chat and then leave without thinking that I had to go back up there to work the next day. It is not that I hated my job by any means but sometimes people change and want/need different things in their life. I was the girl that changed. The daily grind of working and rushing home to hurry and cook supper and bathe Abby and get her to bed, that had changed me. It is funny that it really did not take long for the change to come around. Abby's first day of school was Aug. 22nd and since then I have been a girl on the change. I had gotten to the point where I really did not enjoy coming to work, yes I know there are not many people who really enjoy working, but I did. I mean, I did not love to be there or want to be there all the time, but I did not hate it either. I can sit here and tell you that I miss somethings about working there. Some of my co-workers, talking to the patients, the crazy conversations that went on in the office, Yea I miss that so much. It was great to chat with everyone there today and nice to see their faces. :)

And I will continue to visit from time to time....That were my thoughts while I was leaving the Endoscopy Center today.  My idea from time to time is when I am ready to go and visit. Like I was today. I was ready and I was in town and I went to visit.

Ok the reason for all this silly beating around the bush is that on my way home I got a call from the Endoscopy Center and asked if I would be interested coming back to work but only as PRN. At that moment in time it sounded wonderful.. I would have no set amount of hours that I would have to work a week, I would only have to work at lease one shift every 90 days to keep a PRN status. I told them it sounded good and I would be interested in something like that...Or maybe I was wrong and I was really interested in it. Maybe I just liked the thought of seeing my co-workers every so often. I really have no idea what I am thinking. So the rest of my drive home with my Mom, after the phone call, I said very little. Just really thinking about the phone conversation that I had just had. Did I say that I was interested because I really wanted to do it or did I say that I was interested because I know that they need someone to help them out since they have not filled my position yet..... And that I am still unsure about at this moment. I did let them know that I would have to talk to my Husband about it and get back with them so not to get things rolling quite yet. I know that my Husband is going to say that I should do what will make me happy but damn I really don't know if that would make me happy. I am so completely happy being at home and being involved with my daughter everyday. I love that I don't have to rush anything anymore. I really get to just sit back and take in everything that is wonderful and great in my life. Would going back to work PRN take this away form me?? How would my daughter feel about it?? There would be days that I would work and not be able to pick her up form school. I have wanted to be able to be a stay at home Mom since Abby was born and now that I am able to do that I am not sure that I would be completely happy going back to work, even if it is just PRN. I am very unsure, as you can see of what I want to do. I need sometime to just sit and think about it and talk to my Hubby!

With all of that out there, I think that I will sweep and mop and finish my laundry.

Happy Hump Day!!

Weekend Wrap Up

Sunday's this time of year consist of football. And I love it. It is not long till the Cowboys game and I hope that they pull it together and get a "W"!!!

Abby and I cleaned her room from top to bottom this morning and got rid of a bunch of toys that she has not played with in forever. I was surprised that she did not try to keep everything that I tried to throw away. She really does not like to get rid of things. :( And I hate having a bunch of clutter. It is time to de-clutter this house before the big move. Kind of a "out with the old, in with the new" thing. I absolutely love that I can actually enjoy my weekends now that I am not working. I used to spend the weekend catching up on all the house work and laundry but not anymore. :) I love it.

Yesterday, Abby and I went shopping with my Mom at Walmart. I really hate Walmart. It is always a mad house in there! And people are so damn rude these days. Abby got her hair trimmed and the new Barbie movie that she has been waiting on F.O.R.E.V.E.R! She was so ready to get home and watch it. But by the time we got home and unloaded everything we got hit with a pretty good storm and had no power for quite awhile. So we ended up just laying on my bed, looking out the window watching the storm. So thankful that we got some much needed rain!!

Not sure what my week will entail but I think that Monday I will go and have lunch with Abby. I think that I will surprise her. I would love to take a few pics of her and her friends playing at recess and eating lunch. :)

Well it is time to fix a snack for the Cowboys game!!!

Happy Sunday!!

Happy Friday!!

My first week of being a stay at home Mom/Wife has been a busy one.

Abby was sick the first part of this week. She went back to school on Wednesday and then soccer practice that evening. Thursday after school she had an appointment at the new salon in town to get feathers put in her hair. She was very, very excited about it. I am not sure that they are worth 25.00 bucks, but she loves them, so I guess they are. :)



**She was all smiles for the rest of the day**

Today Abby had school pictures. I can't wait to get the back. I am a little worried about her smile though. She tends to over do it most of the time. Haha. But I am sure that they will turn out wonderful. I was very happy to know that they had their pictures done first thing this morning, I was worried that they would have to wait till after recess and she would be a hott mess when it came picture time. Thank goodness it did not turn out that way. Yesterday I had to run to Walmart to pick up a few things and I found the cutest Hello Kitty flats that I had to get her. She got to wear them today!! And she LOVED them.

They are the cutest right??

And here is my Lil Abigail this morning as we were leaving to take her to school!!! Love her so much!!!

**My Baby Girl**





Not to sure what the plans are for the weekend but I know that my Hubby is glad that he is NOT on call. He had to work pretty much all last weekend. I think that we are going to try and move the pool table that is at my Mom's house to storage and then my Mom and I can start painting and getting things ready at her house for the big move. I am so ready to get this show on the road. So maybe with some luck we will make some progress this weekend.:)

I hope that everyone has a wonderful weekend. :)

And I am loving this weather!!! Great movie/sleeping weather!!!

Day Two of Stay at Home Mom/Wife

It has been a day...

Abby and I were up about 5:30 this morning and we headed to the ER a little after 6:00. She was still feeling bad and was not getting any better. She was breaking my heart. After staying there till almost 10:00 we were worn out. We got her meds filled and came home and took a wonderful, much needed nap. They said that she has a UTI and that is what was making her sick everywhere else. It is crazy that a UTI can cause so much other, you would think non related pain and sickness. Meds for nausea and antibotics and she already seems to be feeling better. It is crazy how kids cn be sick one minute and feeling better the next. Crazy or not I am just happy that she is starting to act normal again.

Bless her heart!!!

Now she is up from her nap and laying in bed watching some good ole cartoons. And if she stays fever free for the rest of the night and is feeling better she can go to school in the morning. She has been so sad that she is missing school. I hate that for her. So we will be keeping our fingers crossed that she is well on her way to feeling good again. I am missing my little girl that never stops talking and is always looking for something to get in to. Haha. Yep, I said it!! I am missing that!!!

Well time to hit the laundry and start planning supper for that hottie hubby of mine!! Happy Tuesday!

I miss you Steph!!!!!

Day One of Stay at Home Mom/Wife

It was a little odd this morning when I got up to get Abby ready for school and I did not have to put scrubs for work. I think it will take some time to really sink in that I don't ever have to go back to work at the Endoscopy Center again....

Abby woke up this morning feeling good, she at breakfast, watched cartoons and finally got dressed. She is pretty slow in the mornings. (like her Daddy) Dropped Abby off at school around 7:45 and headed back home to start my busy day of laundry and cleaning. I really wanted to go back to sleep but I didn't. My plan was to get the house clean and laundry going that then I would go and get my much needed pedi......But when you have children things usually don't go as planned. At 9:11 the school nurse called and said that Abby was in her office throwing up and that I needed to come and get her, so I grabbed my purse and was off to get my sick baby girl. Poor thing,she got sick in her classroom and did not make it to the trash can or bathroom. :( Bless her heart. She said that is was not a big mess. Thank goodness.

We got home within about 3 minutes and she was ready to crawl in bed. I think she was in her PJs and in bed before I even had time to put my purse down on the kitchen bar. I put on one of her fav Barbie movies and got her some juice and crackers and she was set. It did not take long and she was out. That is pretty much all she has done all day long. Besides making trips to the bathroom she has been in bed all day long. And for Abby to stay in bed that long means she is really, really sick. She is still not feeling any better this evening but the nurse said that even if she was that she had to stay home tomorrow.  I really hope that she is able to get some rest tonight and that she wakes up in the morning feeling 100 times better. I hate when my baby is sick. I would rather it be me.

I was able to continue my cleaning once I go her all snuggled up in her bed. I actually got a lot done today. No pedi...but if I have waited this long I can wait a couple more days. House is all clean, supper was ready when my Hubby got home and I only have some blankets left to wash tomorrow. Good stuff.

Thank you Hubby for letting me be a stay at home Mom/Wife!!! I love you!!!

Long Time No Blog

It is been forever since I have had time to blog. Well I may have had time but I think that I just have not really known what to blog about. I have been at a loss for words, I guess you could say. And that is really odd for my because usually I am always full of things to say.

This Friday will be my last day at work. My husband and I decided that it was more improtant for me to be able to be involved with Abby's School than for me to be working full time. So I am a very happy camper. I am going to love every bit of being a stay at home Mom. I will miss a few peeps at my work and I will stay in touch with a couple that really mean alot to me. But I am really very very ready for this change in my life.

I just got a call from Abby's soccer coach and she has practice tonight. OMG, she is going to be so excited. She had been telling me that she wanted her team to be pink and black...and guess what, they are! We went this weekend and bought her clets, shin gaurds, ball and bag and she is all ready to go. I can not wat to see her out there on the field. It will be the cutest thing ever, I am sure. The Coach sounds super nice and i think that we will have a great season. I can't wait to meet her tonight. I am soooo ready to be a Soccer Mom!!!
