Ryanne, she's been trying forever to get a restraining order. They hope to have one by next week. It's been going on like this for 4 (or maybe he is 5 now) years and has gotten super bad for the last 2 or 3 now. It is really crazy how nothing has been done yet. Until the police have proof that he is the one that has done everything they can't charge him. And until her son gets hurt they can't grant her full custody. It is so messed up.

Nice weather always makes me want to clean more too! Right now I am listening to music while cleaning and typing to you.

Hello ladies! Wow, a busy couple of days.

NicoleCan and Yolanda, bless you for all the photo comments over on fb! I logged on when I got home this evening and had eleventy million notifications - totally made me

NicoleCan, your cousins situation sounds awful. Of course I will pray for her. I'm also sorry to hear your family are being fussy...I hope you and Lorne can plan something fun for the weekend together.

Crystal, I *love* the second page try. Gorgeous.

You guys, I am so tired, in a lovely way. I was up in Birmingham last night for a dinner, and was going to come back this morning, but instead I stayed in town having lunch and shopping with a friend. Such a lovely, lovely day. Of course, means I'll have to work up a storm tomorrow and I'm very tired just now, but such an unexpected treat

Nicole- I will be praying for your cousin!!

Yolanda are you going to be staying somewhere else while the reno's happen?

Lexie- hope you have a great day with the kids!

Jae- sorry you didn't get much sleep, but there are the naps in the day! That's how I make it through!!

Chelsea- your photos are awesome, you are very talented. Now if only you could take your own belly shots And yay for MAry sleeping!! I asked a few weeks ago about her but can't remember reading your reply.

Ryanne- eh, cleaning. I get nagged about that sometimes too, I hope you can sort it all out and stuff.

Today is a sports day at the school where I taught not sure if I will take the kids for a bit, I can't be bothered, didn't sleep well (as usual LOL). But you know what? Hubby was nice last night! Instead of the grumpy face when he came in he smiled when he got home. He didnt moan when I asked him to hold Nath so I could Grace ready for bed. And even when Nath woke up just as we were going to bed he said "Thank you" to me Good start!!

Ohhh, I was listening to it all afternoon, and it was free, and now I tried to go there and it wants me to sign up! grr.

I'll try to find it somewhere else!

Not exactly sure yet...depends if we can have the power hooked up or not while the house is moved. If not, we will be living with my in-laws...I love my in-laws, but not so much that I want to live with them! LOL She already has a spare room ready for us and one for Chase!!
Oh, hubby is on the phone with our electrician right now, we'll see what he says.

It works, Yolanda. Sounds pretty good.

Oh and my DS always gets the "song" thing too. His name is Jeremiah. I never thought of that happening before naming him

For some reason it works if you go from google, but not if you link directly to it!

I'm going to go visit my mom today, I don't really visit much since my parents split up. It's hard to be there in the house. Oh well, hopefully we can spend lots of time outdoors. I think it's probably too cool to use the pool, but we can probably go play outdoors.

I got to go to a fire last night. I usually don't get to go because I'm home with Chase, but last night I dropped him off at my SIL's and drove my own car to the scene. It was a garage fire, it was already falling down, and there was nothing in it, but it did melt all the siding and shingles on the house

I still haven't gotten my blueberries cleaned!

Crystal, how is the scrapbook going?

Nicole, are you feeling better today?

Nicole, so glad to hear your hubby is warming up!!

Seeya later ladies.

Ryanne - We have had issues over my lack of cleaning too

Claire - That does sound like a lovely day!

Nicole (from down under) - I was so happy to read that your hubby was sweet to you last night. I hope that it continues.

I am so excited about my parents, sister, BIL, and nephew coming tomorrow and staying the whole weekend. I love my family! I have a lot to do between now and then so my goal is once I sign off not to get back on until all my stuff is done. I think Hunter and I are going to a consignment shop today to look for a inexpensive second hand car seat. Hunter is starting a parent's morning out program (just ONCE a week) and hubby offered to pick him up on his way home from lunch. But, it would be such a hassle because I would have to switch cars so I figured it wouldn't hurt to have an extra car seat anyway. We shall see...

During nap time today I have got to get busy cleaning, doing laundry, and all that fun stuff. Hubby is mowing the lawn tonight and doing yard work so the house will be in order when they get here. Busy bees we are today!

Nicole AUS, glad to hear your hubby was pleasent to you.

Chelle, all that cleaning you're planning on is making me tired. Nathan had a bad night last night, took forever to get him back to sleep when he was up at 3am. By 5:15am he was back asleep, but dH just decided to go into work instead of getting more sleep. I'm glad his work is flexible, so that if he does start early he can leave early, provided no one earnestly needs him in the early afternoon.

That is how hubby's job is too, very flexible with his schedule. It has definitely made it nice at times especially those nights like you mentioned.

Ok, see you ladies later! I have got to get busy so if you see me on again anytime soon kick me off or tell me to leave. Have a great day!

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Good morning.

Yolanda, it's going ok I guess. I can't believe how much time it takes for one page! Who knew? I worked on another one. You can see it here for now, but I might take it down later today since it has my in-laws names on it and I'm not sure how they'd feel about that.

Whatcha think?

Someone asked what program I'm using... I've been working with Photoshop 7. I'd love to upgrade. Anyone want to buy me CS3 for Christmas?

Nicole - sorry about your cousin. That's awful.

Chelsea - your photos are fab!

Is Donna having a baby today?!

I have got to do some cleaning today. I've been lazy with that this week, and it's showing. I need a maid. I don't care how nice the weather is, it never makes me want to clean.

Crystal, that is a cool page!!!

I need to do some laundry today. We have a pretty busy weekend, I'm taking the kiddos to a b-day party and my parents are coming in to stay the night Sunday/Monday. So I need to get some cleaning done!

Crys, feel free to combine the "My friends Jeanie and Dana" page with the "My favorite cuts of meat" page if it saves you some time. I'm also willing to ship you gobs of photos of "My little buddy Adam who will be friends with our baby, too" for that page. You just let me know.

I'm sure Rachel would be happy to take a photo of Isaac with the bug spank if you want to do a page on "Our kid's cool friends" page.

Rachel, I'm glad your folks are coming -- how fun! Chelle, too!

Hey, ladies, I believe my husband's one and only sibling, his sister, is in labor now (water broke this morning). We sure wouldn't mind some prayer for her and the baby! (hint hint)

Jeanie

Lexie, how FUN to have an anniversary bbq! That is an excellent idea! Just one more reason it's great to get married in the summer, huh? (You are talking wedding anniversary, right? I haven't slept much so pardon me if you're talking about a different anniversary.)

Ruth, I'm sorry to hear Nathan had a rough night.

Nicole/CAN
: The weather is kind of cruddy here today so if your parents were planning on visiting us this weekend NOW IS NOT A GOOD TIME. (Can you joke about that or are you going to throw stuff at me?)

Yolanda, my SIL is probably having their baby today. What time is your electrician going to get here?


Oh, look at me -- all serious about everything today, huh?

Where IS everybody today? I'm going to end up filling another page with my kid's avatar if nobody else shows up. Are you all busy cleaning? Yeah, that's what I should do, too, well, actually things look okay though I could go over the paper stash that has accumulated on the desk we like to call a "dining room table". (More desk than table these days)

I think I have nervous energy now awaiting our niece's arrival. They didn't tell the name ahead of time so we have no idea what that is. The only thing I know is my MIL said "I hope Adam can pronounce it!" Now, that could mean anything, you know? I mean, first off, Adam can't pronounce ANYTHING yet - unless they name the kid "Muh" or "Ooo" or "Uh". Or one of those Hawaiian names like Muhooouh. Then he could pronounce that but it would be totally on accident.

Look, I'm not going to hide the fact my kid is smart, but my kid isn't THAT smart. He's only 5 months old. But he does have a wonderful ab workout schedule going and one of these days he is going to sit bolt upright and probably scare the pants off his father and me in the process. Then we'll KNOW who has control over the house. (Oh, who are we kidding, he already has the control of the house.)

See what happens when you ladies leave me with no one to talk to but myself? I hope someone shows up soon...I could start talking politics and religion soon if I have to keep going-it alone.

Hey, what's the difference between this winky face --> and this one --> ...just the nose? Oh, I see....the first winky face (no nose) is "Italy". The second winky face is "Mexico".

I seriously have too much nervous energy right now. Must.slow.down.....

She was gigundo- 7lbs 10oz

They told me to expect a peanut baby- less then 6lbs

So... here is my dilemma.

I am in my 3rd semester of nursing pre-reqs. I have one more semester to go, then I can apply to a nursing school(or multiple ones) we also want another baby before Gabby is 15. I am basically trying to get my RN so that I can begin a RN-Master's program, the masters program can be done entirely online so I figure I can piddle away at it while I stay home with Gabby and baby #2(if we are so blessed). Here is the real problem-

Denver School of Nursing= $36k in tuition, no waiting list, 90% NCLEX pass rate will NOT work with federal grants or loans.
Arapahoe Community College= $15k (or so) in tuition, 2.5-3 year waiting list, 100% NCLEX pass rate
Denver Community College= $15k in tuition, not sure on the waiting list but don't think it's long(trying to get ahold of someone to ask), 70% NCLEX pass rate.

I am SO torn.
