Sex

We had the music on and the song all I wanna do was on and Joey said the guy on there wants to have sex with his wife. I asked where he heard that and he said at school. I asked him what else he knew he siad he knew what french sex was I asked him what it was and he said it was when both people got completly naked. I asked him why it was only the french that did and he said they were crazy

strange animal laughing

Jessie was out on the porch calling Sarah to come in.She came in and said "mom some strange animal is out there laughing at me. it goes waaah waaah waaah" I laugh and send her back out. Joey goes with her to the porch and they both come back in and Joey says the same thing and imatates it.Jessie looks at me all pittiful and says mom come listen. So Haley and I follow her and Joey outside and listen. we hear it right away and Jessie looks at me all worried and freaked out and Haley looks up at her and says "It's a duck Jessie" it was the duck that lives across the street. I about died laughing at her

Pizza and a Movie

I told the kids tonight that I would take them and rent a movie and get pizza for dinner. Well Kirk was going to a game to ref it and he told Haley she could go with him. I told her we were getting pizza and a movie. She said "that's ok mom put mine in the pizza box for me"

We went to walmart tonight and I bought some orange juice. When we got home Jessie asked "hey mom can I have some and then she spelled gucie" she ment juice

It is drying out

Haley is sitting in front of the tv eating a pickle. She just jumped up and said I have to turn off the light. I told her no I'm reading. she then looks at me and says " I have to mom my pickle is drying out"

Like Mamaw's boys

Picking up Haley from school yesterday as she was getting in the van her pants were coming down a little. I told her she was loosing her pants and pulled them up. she giggled and said "I'm loosing them like mamaw's boys lose their pants." Had to laugh. Steven and David both like to wear their pants down around their butts. I am always telling them pull your pants up boy. Just found it funny that even thoug she doesnt see them often she thought of them when I told her she was loosing hers

My day with haley

We went to the gym today and I got sick.(not been eating well and needed salt) anyway I was in the pool room with everyone else and mom went to the hot tub. I told her to hurry I wanted to go home. Well she said something so I went over and poured some of my cold water on her. She gave me the evil eye and I told her to watch it or I would go get real cold water out of the fountain. Well Haley decided to go get it for me. when she came back I told her to pour it on mamaw and she said "No I want ice cream" (mom had told her she had some at home and she could have some if she sided with her against me.)
anyway this evening we get home from church and the little snot cutes her hair. I so thought we were past all the hair cutting but I guess not. I am so mad at her right now.She cute alot of it off. Luckily though I think there is only one place it doesn't blend in enough not to see.

Sunday with Haley

We have a rule that during sacrament meeting if we have to take the kids out of the chaple they get no candy after.(there is a lady there that has candy for all the kids every week) Well Haley has had to come out the last 3 sundays. This past sunday she started in saying she never gets candy and she is going to be hungry forever.Well when that didn't work and get me to talk to her she started crying there is no air in this room and I have to have air to breath. I can't breath in here I'm going to die. Do you have any idea how hard it is not to laugh at this child when she does things like that when she is in trouble? Very just let me tell you.

Haley funnies

All three of the little kids had games tonight. While I was watching Sarah play, Haley was fighting with me.(play) she was running up and jumping on me.She said "we're fighting mom" I said we are. and then asked her if she thought she could win. she said "yes" so I have her wrists in my hands holding her and wrap my legs around hers so she can't move. She gets this look on her face and rolls her eyes at me and says "Mom that is cheating" I had to let go I was laughing so hard.No idea where she got that.
then she was wanting to run over to some of her team and play. I told her no that I was afraid she would disappear on me. she has these looks that are funny all alone but then she talks and you die. she says " Mom I wont disappear on you I'm not a witch" again I have to laugh. she asked again and when she said she wasn't a witch I told her I think you are. she starts flapping her arms like a bird and says "I'm not a witch mom I can't fly."

"stay"

We were at the soccer field last night for practice, Haley was g oing to walk with Jessie and she put her gatorade on the bumber of the van walked away,only to go about 15 feet.She turnd and as she did she put herself into a pouncing stance pointed at the gatorade and said "stay"

Haley stuff

I got her up this morning for school and she climbed on the couch and covered up all the way to the top of her head. I told her to get dressed. She pulled the covers down and said turn off the light I'm blind. Funny girl.
She has a follow up ENT appt this afternoon. I am really freaking out about it. She has been asking more and more for me to turn stuff up cause she can't hear.Dr. Mimms doesn't believe in giving us good news. So I am worried and crossing my fingers that he we actually get good news. I really do not want to think about another surgery for her ever.

Just funny stuff

This morning she came to me and asked me to scratch her foot. So I did and then stoped.She said it wasn't good enough and told me to do it again.I told her no that she could do it. She looked at me and then took my hand and put it on her foot and said you do it, I don't know where it itches.
Then Kirk was laying in bed this morning texting me about breakfast when I was right on the other side of the wall.It is his birthday and Haley went and got him 2 of her toys and gave them to him. After awhile she asked him where his star was.He told he rit flew at Jessie cause it didn't like that she wasn't giving him a kiss.I love how he got out of trouble with her for throwing the star by telling her it flew over there.

I'm all wet

Sarah cought Storm so I figured I should go play with her. well I brought her up front to eat some grass and got the bright idea to start getting her used to the water hose. Not sure why I waited till she was almost 3 months old for this,but anyway she really didn't like it and I think I got as wet as she did. I really need to get new pictures of her

my turn

We took Haley to the gym today and after we went to the mexican place to have lunch. We were ordering our drinks and I told them Haley wanted water.She looked at me and then the waiter and said it is my turn to pick and I want sprite.

Haley's first day of pre school

This morning she got up and was all excited about going. I sent them all out to the bus and stood on the porch to watch them. she turned just before the bus got there and said "I love you mom" I wanted to cry. My baby is getting to big. rMom and I went to pick her up and go to the pool.Well he thanked me for picking her up and then she started singing "Shoe fight don't bother me" we laughed and told her it was "shoe fly" took us forever to convence her it was fly. then just now I told her to pick up a tortilla shell that she dried out and smashed on the floor. She did and went to throw it away and then came back to the living room going ouch ouch ouch. She said"When I was picking up that tortilla shell I droped it on my foot" I told her it didn't hurt.She said "yes it does it hit my vein." I about died.

I'll be alright

While giving Haley her bath tonight we were talking about her starting pre school on Monday. I asked her if she was excited. She told me yes so I asked her about riding the bus and getting to sit with Jessie. She said cause she is my bus monitor. I told her yes and she asked me why she needed one. I told her it was Jessie's job to make sure she was safe. She then told me she didn't want a monitor that she would be alright.

horses,puppies, and Haley

This morning I went to let Beauty and Storm out of their stall only to find that the door was part way open and Storm was out already. So I let Beauty out and then decided if I could catch her again I would bring them up front to eat the grass.I cought her and they came without a problem.Well Serena (my sister) brought her 2 kids puppies over to mom's last night so Haley and I had to go get them. I told her I would keep them for a few days.Haley is in love and wants to keep em.She gets all upset when they play fight.Anyway when we got home I noticed that Storm was in the big field again and mommy was still up front.The only thing I can think is that she jumped the fence. Not sure how a 2 month old baby horse jumped a 4 foot fence but if she did I am so getting her and Jessie into jumping.
This morning while Haley was watching deigo a commercial came on for dove soap and it had a woman in the shower with all her clothes on. Haley said "mom she has all her clothes on, humans don't take showers with their clothes on."

School has started

Well the older kids started school this morning. Can't believe how fast the summer went. Haley doesn't start till the 24th of this month. She is excited. I thought she would throw a fit this morning when the kids left but not at all. She stood at the window waving bye to them.

might be moving

Kirk has been putting apps in for jobs all over just to see what would happen. Well he made the certs for a job in OK. He was interviewed and they loved him,but there was a date wrong in one spot on his app and hr didn't catch it even though it was right everywhere else. So he should never have made the cert.They are reposting the job so they can legely hire him. Even so it is still just a maybe thing. We told my mom last night that there is a chance we will be moving. She has already started freaking out and laying on the guilt.That is the whole reason I didn't tell her sooner. I just didn't want to deal with all the stress it is causing and maybe for nothing. Up till now there really wasn't anything to tell. Heck there still might not be. He has to make this cert and then beat out the other people that apply.The only thing in his favor at this point is they have already interviewed him. Doesn't mean he will make the cert of be the best for the job once they post it again.I am looking at everything from different views. We both have thought all this through. Yes it will be hard to be away from everyone,but I have done it before when Kirk was in the Navy and he didn't even come home every night then. I know how hard it is not to have family close by. I also know that I don't spend much time with them anyway. Yeah we go to the gym from time to time and the kids are attached. Heck the 2 little ones don't know anything but this house, Joey only remembers ever being in Ky.There will alot of adjusting for everyone.Deosn't mean we wont get through it or haven't thought it all through. At this point we are going on with our lives as if there isn't even a job out there.I still plane on starting college on the 17th.The kids are starting school on Thursday and Haley starts on the 24th. I wanted to have the bypass surgery to lose weight.That I am putting on hold until we find something out. I wouldn't have had the surgery until Christmas anyway. So I have time to wait a few months at that before I have to start it all.
It wont be all that much harder finding a babysitter out there as it is here. No one wants to keep my kids.They all bad mouth Joey. Yes he is a handful,but still none of them want him around.Jessie watches the kids now when we need someone.True Jessie doesn't take change well but we really haven't changed all that much stuff with her since she was 7. She understands all this and acepts it.Doesn't mean she has to love the idea. I think her biggest complaint is that she wont get to date Scott Miller before we move if we do.I just wish things would go back to normal. Mom isn't even talking to me.I mean come on we don't even know we are going anywhere. Mom did email and asked if a little more money and time with Kirk was worth moving away from family.The thing is that is mostly about getting kirk into the field he has a degree and certs for.Here he doesn't even have that option so with him doing what he is it looks bad on his resume. How does that help anyone? It doesn't and he isn't happy in the field he is working in now.I just really don't know what to do with it all at this point. I hate people being upset with me.But on average with the exception of my mom I see the rest of the family 10 times a year, other then church and you really can't call that seeing them.Even when we have the potlucks at church they never sit with us.Mom says I wasn't happy when we didn't live close by.News flash I'm on anti depresants now.The biggest reason I moved to Ky was to be with my little brothers and they never really spent much time with us even after we moved here and now Steven is 20 and David is 18. Only a handful of people in the family like Kirk and that in itself is hard on me, and mom is not one of them. So I don't even have an outlet to complain about the stuff he pulls.so that wont be any different except they will like him less now.But I look at it all like this. The Lord had to have a hand in that app getting messes up so he made a cert he should have never made. The amish are interested in renting this place if we move so we can keep it so we have it if we come back.Things are just falling into place. If that is where we are meant to be for the time being the the Lord will put us there.I have to trust he knows what he is doing. He sees the big picture not us.

Haley's surgery

Well over all it went alright. I knew right away that something was wrong. It took way longer then it should have and when Dr. Mimms came out to talk to us he took us to a consulation room. He has NEVER done that before. He told us that her right ear drum is too thin to get a ear tube to stay in, and not to be surprised if in the future she has to have recontructive surgery for that drum. Not something I even want to think about. She also had her tonsilles and adnoids removed this time. We are 3 days out and she is really bouncy back fast. Well with the playing and stuff. she still doesn't want to eat or drink.We keep telling her to drink.She wants to go outside so bad and every time the other kids go out she cries and says it is not fair. I feel so bad for her.
When we were doing the pre-op stuff she was cracking us up. They gave her some meds to help calm her down and when they really took affect her head was bobbing and eyes were rolling.She had a pulse ox thing on her finger and it turns your finger red. She finally laid down and was fasinated with her red finger. She was moving it all around real slow watching it. You could tell she was really druged up.
Jessie and I went to wal-mart on Friday the day after h er surgery and on the way home I stoped at Mcdonalds to get her a milkshake and Jessie asked if she could have her tonsilles removed. I told her no and that it was painful. She asked how painful and I told her they are cutting in your throught how bad do you think? She told me I don't know so I passed on the info that her grandmother had it done at 17 and it was very painful. So she changed her mind but asked if we could pretend she had it done and baby her like that. I had to laugh and then told her no.

several things in 1 post

Well awhile back Kirk started putting apps in for a new job. He wants to do what he has his degree in and his experiance in.He will not get that anytime soon where he is at.Well he put one a couple weeks ago and last week he got a call for an interview. He had that interview yesterday morning. Well come to find out becouse of the way his app was and HR messing up he should have never made the cert for the job. He talked to the guy this morning that is charge of hiring.He told Kirk he was glad things were messed up or they would have never known about him and they want him for this job. So they are trying to find a way to push him through for it.If they can't they are going to have to readvertise for the job. This one will be worded for Kirk to make it.When it is up and open for apps they boss is going to call Kirk and tell him to get it in. They wont leave it open long.So he has the job just not yet due to technicalities. All this does is pushes us back moving a few weeks. So anyway this job is in Muskogee Ok.Jessie is not reall happy about moving but is dealing.The little ones don't know yet and no one else except Ivan(my uncle) knows he was even looking. I figured why freak everyone out that we might move if it might never happen. I still am waiting to tell everyone until this is a done deal. If you know me you know why. I believe if something can go wrong it will. So when I have something to tell I will.
Next Haley is having surgery yet again. I feel so bad for her. It is her 5th set of ear tubes in 3.5 years.This time though they are taking her tonsilles and adnoids.We are praying that this will help with the fluid and she wont ever need another set. She told me the other day her ears were closed. Makes me want to cry.She knows they doing the tonsilles and adnoids she just doens't knmow it is going to hurt any more then having the tubes. and she remembers the last time she got those since it was just this past Dec. She is excited about the ice cream and popsicles that she gets and none of the other kids can have any. I am letting her focus on that.No reason to scare her.
Sarah is working with Storm. She loves to walk her around and I'm letting her do it all she wants.
I signed up for college classes this past Tues. If Kirk gets the job I will have to drop them all. funny thing we just bought me a laptop for class.lol oh well I love my laptop.
Ok time for a Haley funny. I took Jessie and Joey to church last night and just droped them off so Haley rode with me. On the way back she was talking about loving me and me loving her and it somehow progressed to where she said "I don't want you to leave, but if you got shot I would need a new mommy" Ok I had to laugh at that, but thinking on it now I sure hope she wasn't having some kind of vision.

I bet it's bedazzled

Jessie and I was watching the live coverage on Michael jacksons funeral the other day. I was just watching to see the casket. I know I'm sick. Anyway jessie was wanting the computer so she was huffing and saying come on poepl show it already. then she just says " I bet it's bedazzled" I about died she still doesn't really get it.

Lets say I break into your house

Let's say I break into your house
A lady wrote the best letter in the editorials in ages!!!
It explains things better than all the bologna you hear on TV.

Her point:
Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the
country protesting the fact that Congress is finally
addressing the issue of illegal immigration.
Certain people are angry that the US might protect
its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this
country and, once here, to stay indefinitely.

Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind
these protests Let's say I break into your house.
Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave.
But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the
dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors.
I've done all the things you don't like to do.
I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house).
According to the protesters:
You are Required to let me stay in your house
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan
You are Required to Educate my kids
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me and to my family
(My husband will do all of your yard work because he is also
hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part.)
If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my
friends who will picket your house carrying signs that
proclaim my RIGHT to be there.
It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself.
I'm a hard-working and honest, person, except for well, you
know, I did break into your house.
And what a deal it is for me!!!
I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost
of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without
being accused of cold, uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, and
bigoted behavior.
Oh yeah, I DEMAND that you learn MY LANGUAGE!!! so you
can communicate with me.
Why can't people see how ridiculous this is?! Only in
America ...if you agree, pass it on (in English).
If not blow it off......... along with your future Social
Security funds, and a lot of other things.


Now before you get all upset with me. I have nothing at all against LEGAL immagration but I believe it should be done the legal and right way. I do not agree with letting them stay and having better benifets and insurance ect ect ect them my own children do that were born here. Why should they be better off then those of us who were born or again came into this country legally? but don't get me started on the having to press 1 to proceed in ENGLISH. that is a really soar spot with me.

Jessie is on a roll

I was looking through craigslist this morning just to see what is there. I found an add that says "Need a Farrier" I had it opened looking at it and Jessie comes up and asked me why I needed a Ferrari. I told her I didn't and let it go. Thought she was crazy. Well I sent the link to Kirk cause we need the horses feet done. When I sent it to him she was still behind me and said "Mom you DON'T need a Ferrari." I cought on then that she thought the farrier was a Ferrari. I about died and told her that was not a Ferrari but a Farrier. She asked what a Farrier was and I told her and she said oh well they are spelled the same. So I had to go look up a Ferrari to show her they are not spelled the same.
then when I went to add that here so I would never forget what she had said I was looking at some of the other posts and was reading the Turtle one and she read it and then looked dumbfounded and said "OK was it really laying eggs" Again had to laugh.

Houston we have a problem

Well we had 2 horses on craiglist for sale. Eragon which was Joey's, we sold him this past Sunday.then we had Romeo on there. He is Kirk's horse that he just had to have. Well we get him home and he is WAY too much horse for Kirk. Jessie was on him once right after we got him and he took off with her so she wouldn't get back on him. Well today I made her get on him so I could take some pics of someone on him for the add. After about 10 min she comes up and says I love him can I switch with Daddy and he can have Beauty.Kirk was ok with it.I told her she has to ride him everyday.
Kirk just talked to Jessie and told her Mommy told me my horse is no longer mine. She said "nope" he said so Beauty is mine she told him yes and he said so I can sell Beauty then. She yelled "NO" Kirk and I started laughing and she just said "jerk"
so anyway we will give her some time with him and see how devoted she really is with him and go from there. If she doesn't work him alot which he really needs then we sell him.

Haley is at it again

She is sitting at the kids computer just laughing and telling Sarah please come look Sarah this is a funny game. I looked to see what she is playing and she brought up the search ingine and there is a puppy on there and she is dieing when it moves.

I'm a staple

I just gave Haley a kiss and she told me "you can't kiss me mom I'm a staple"

"Fresh Poop"

We were outside riding the horses tonight and Sarah was on Flash of course. Haley was running around following us.Well Flash stoped to poop and Haley said "Look mom she pooped Fresh poop" I about died

Goats

Well we sold 9 of our goats a couple weekends ago. Which is half. We had thought about getting rid of all them but decided to keep half of them and go from there. We are having some problems with the hotwire to keep them from going under the fence. The neighbors are getting upset. I can understand, but yesterday he called and left a message in Kirk's cell cussing him and saying if they got out again he was going to shoot them. I think that is taking a bit too far. so we are working on fence again this weekend and hopefully will be able to keep them home.

Turtle

I got home this evening and Haley came to me and told me they had found a turtle over by the neighbors house, and they have it in a white bucket. Not a feed bucket though.She said they are going to keep it as a pet. I told her they could keep in the pond. she said no we have to keep it in the bucket. I asked her what she was going to feed it. She looked at me with that DUH Mom look that she has and said " turtle food" so I asked her what turtles ate and she said fish. I asked her where she was going to get fish.she told me " in the pond with a fishing pole" I told her I think they eat bugs not fish and she got all excited. She told me the turtle is a girl and she was laying eggs next door. I told her they had to put her back if she was laying eggs. she then told me "she will finish laying them in the bucket"

Lots has happened

Well last Monday Kirk had carpel tunnel surgery and that has kept me busy itself taking care of him.He is doing well and went back to work today.He is so ready for it to be healed so I will stop telling him you can't do that.lol
I found out last week that the other part of my thyroid that we thought was alright is in fact screwed up with the rest of it.so I am on yet another med. I don't mind except for the cost. Waiting to see how I feel after it takes full affect.
Sarah is in a play today and has her kinder graduation. I am looking forward to going and seeing her in the play.
Jessie is having her 8th grade graduation tonight.She is so looking forward to high school. Me I want to know when my baby got old enough to go to high school? doesn't seem right.
Anita tought Haley to go around and say "Silence I kill you" It is from achmed the terroist(think I spelled it right.) It is so cute when she says it.
We sold 9 goats yesterday.Half the heard. Now we have to get another billy. still praying that some of these have babies that live. We are trying to sell Romeo and eragon. We have had alot of interest but the people never show up to look when they say they are coming. We did have someone come yesterday but she was all high and mighty thinking she is better then every one and knows all there is about horses. she was telling us that Romeo was 6 that he was at least 10 more like 12. sorry lady we had Samuel look and we trust him when he agrees witht he people that we bought romeo from in his age.Anyway we are just trying to weed out some of the animals and Kirk can't ride Romeo he is just too much for him to handle, and Joey has lost all interest in horses so why keep eragon? Plus he has started chasing the kids or I would just give him to Haley. Kirk and Joey bought chickens. I so hate chickens unless they are baked and on my plate.
Tomorrow is the last day of school. I am ready for summer break. I plan on riding or going to the gym everyday. Hoping that I start to lose some of this weight.

Salt in cookies

I was making chocolate chip cookies from scratch for a fundraiser the young women at church were having for camp. Joey came in the kitchen as I was adding the salt to the dry mixture.He said "MOM that is salt" I calmly told him " I put salt on EVERYTHING" ( for a little background info. I really do add alot of salt to my food but only mine and never in baked goods.) So he looks all grossed out and goes to Kirk in the living room and I hear him say "Dad don't eat the cookies they have salt in them"

" I Need Help"

Haley was on the phone with my mom. she walked down the hall so I didn't see what happened but heard it all. She yelled " I accidentaly hung up on mamaw" I told ehr to bring me the phone but by this time it was doing the peeping thing phones do when they are off the hook. then that recording came on that says if you need help to hang up and call them. I hear haley at this time say "I Need Help" I about died laughing. I couldn't see her but I can picture her standing in the hall looking at the phone and talking at it saying I need help.

Sarah's birthday

Sarah's 6th birthday is coming up and all she wants is a horse. She is my little horse person even more so then Jessie. We were able to find a mare in our price range that seems to fit perfect with sarah. She is a large horse but Sarah isn't afraid of being on her. Haley even rode her.We pick her up on Sat. All the kids except Jessie thinks that the horse is mine. I can't wait to Sarah's face when we give her the horse and tell her that she was actually bought for her. Those are the best parts of being a parent.Here is a picture of the mare. I got it off the add that was on craiglists.

Haley's ENT checkup

Took Haley back to the ENT today for a checkup with her tubes. Well guess what they are falling out already. This set was put in on the 5th of Dec. he also said her tonsils are large. so I am to watch her sleep at night and see if she wakes herslef up cause she has stoped breathing. We will talk more about that in 3 months when she goes back. Hoping we don't have to start talking about tubes again. He said they have another kind that is desinged to stay in longer but they tend to leave holes in the ear drum when they come out. So not sure what to do at this point except pray that it doesn't come down to her getting another set.

At the dinner table

Last night Jessie decided to play a get to you game at the table. she went around asking the kids what their fav stuff was. We missed the drink with Sarah so when we went back to her for that one Haley starts wispering across the table strawberry milk over and over again. We all laughed.

Soccer season

Is upon us. all 4 of the kids are starting soccer. I will be so worn out at the end of the season. good thing though is Sarah and Haley are ont he sme team so that will help some. Joey has his first practice tonight. I am going to get a few pics of Jessie for her 15 year old pics.Will post osme later

Naked

Haley was laying on the couch waiting for Sarah to go to sleep so she could go to bed.She got into my purse and got out my chapstick. She asked " can I have some chapstick mom?" I told her " No lay down" then Jessie went and got it from her for me and brought it to me with my purse. Haley started crying and said "Mom my lips will be naked" I had to put everything down I was laughing so hard and my sides hurt.

Haley funnies

Yesterday Haley was talking with Erin and Kayla and they asked her about who she liked. She said that she liked KC and that they were going to get married. They said you are she told them yes but they were waiting till after she turned 5. they told her that was good that you should never get married before you turn 5 and she said "Oh I know"
Today mom was here at the house and Haley had gotten some pliers and mom took them away. She told Haley to put her finger in them.She grabed her fingers and said no. Mom asked "Don't you trust me?" she shook her head. I put my finger in them and mom shut it barely over my finger. Jessie and Sarah both put their fingers too. Then mom asked Haley to put hers in. Haley cried and said " No you will hurt me. I'm just a little girl"
At Papaw's party yesterday Evan was down and he was sitting by mom talking. Haley wanted her to pick her up. Mom told her "No my back hurts but uncle Evan will hold you" So she let him pick her up and then gave mom her famous duh look and said "This is Uncle Ivan mamaw" so they walked over to Ivan and mom tapped him on the shoulder so he would turn around and she said "then who is this Haley?" Haley looked back and forth between them while Evan was holding her and then she looked at mom and said " I don't know and about jumped into her arms. Evan lives in In and we hardly ever see him.

It's Kidding season again

WE had our first babies today. Big Red had 3 billies but sadly we lost 2 of them. Crossing our fingers the 3rd one makes it. He is solid red. Way to go RJ.

WAAAAA

On Monday of last week my brother John had back surgery. Well I was up at the hospital everyday last week except Thursday. On Friday Haley and I spent 13 hours away from home to get John moved from the hospital to the rehab hospital. She was very well behaved for a 4 year old that was cooped up for that long. Well mom had stayed overnight with him at the hospital all week,but the rules of the rehab place say that she chould not stay. So on the trip home she was exhusted from everything and very emotional. She started to cry and everyone that knows me knows that I cry everytime someone else does. It was late and dark so I laughed and told mom no crying. I would be able to drive if I started that. So Haley started pretend crying and mom and I both started dieing laughing.Haley's whole plan. Well she kept it up for awhile and mom and I just talked around it. I finally said "Haley that is enough thanks for helping us." She immeditaly stopped the crying and said in the sweetes voice ever "Your Welcome mom"

Dances

Well Jessie went to her first dance tonight. She had fun but wont talk much about it. Teenagers. LOL I did find out that she danced 3 dances with boys. 2 were with the same boy but hey that counts.

She is at it again.

Well Haley and Joey have both said some funny things and I be dnaged if I didn't forget them before I got on here. Jessie said something the other night at dinner and I do remember it. We were talking about state capitals and Kirk was quizzing her. We werwe all goofing off and just playing around and she got excited cause she thought she knew the answer and she blurted out Ikansas. We about died.
Ok now for the Haley. I have my playlist on and I have the song Dilemma by Nelly on here. Well the line Haley was singing goes like this. Even when I'm with my boo,now you know I'm crazy over you. Here is what she was singing. "Even when I'm with my boobs" Where she comes up with this stuff is beyond me.

Windstorm

We had a windstorm come through on Wed. it was horrible. It sounded like the wind wanted to rip apart my house.There was a couple that had the whole roof taken off their barn. They had 26 horses in that barn. Luckily they were all fine just lost the roof over their head. What is up of our barn is just fine. Even the little barn had no damage. We did have a piece of left over tin that took off. the kids had an hour delay yesterday for school.

Breaking Dawn

Well the company has bought the rights to film Breaking Dawn. They will start filming in early 2010. I am so going to take Haley to an audition and pray that she doesn't do her little shy act in front of them. Everyone that knows her knows that she is very outgoing when she wants to be. I just talked to her about being in the movie and she has fears that she wont be my daughter anymore and that I wont be with her since I can't be in the movie.I did my best to explain to her how it all works and I think she gets it but she is 4 so who knows if she really did. She is saying that she wants to do the movie.I think she likes the idea of having a movie with her in it that we can watch on the TV. I just hope they don't turn her down cause her eyes are blue instead of Brown. Hoping they will work around that.I did curl her hair a few months back and then changed her eye color in ps to see what she would look like dressed up as Renesmee.Here is what I got. I think it loks pretty good and I'm not a hair dresser.

Oh No she didn't

oh yes she did. I took Haley with me today to go shopping at goody's and she was not reall happy about being there. Well she was looking at some jeans over by the emergancy exit and then next thing you know she is pushing the door open. the alarm goes off and man is that loud. did you know that when those go off the lights shut off in the store. Well I didn't either till today. What a shopping trip

A Haley funny

last week she was sitting on my lap and said that she had hurt her little foot. She wanted me to kiss it and I told her that I was not going to kiss her foot it was dirty. so what does she do? She licks her hand and then rubs the bottom of her foot. I laugh and tell her that was gross. she said "Mom my foot is clean so kiss it." I had to luagh.

What a week

Well about this time last week my computer got a virus and I had no internet. then as kIrk was getting around to reimaging it mid way through we lost electric due to the storm that came through. First we had snow then ice then snow again. Everyone has been home all week. We don't have church tomorrow cause of the power that is still out and the ice on the parking lot. We were without for 3 days and then went and bought a huge generator to hook most everything up to and as Kirk was putting gas in it which is the point Lowes will not take it back our electric came back on. so we sent it to my aunt anita's house and they got their electric back on right after getting it hooked up so it is on it's way to Richmond to my other aunt's house who still has no power. We are calling it the good luck generator. We were without phone for 3 days.

Young Womens Theme

They have added Virtue to our theme and let me tell you as we stand to say this theme it is hard to remember to add it in. You can't get new ones yet so I made us one for our ward. Here is what I came up for. First attempt

Horses

Well we sold Bo on Thursday, they picked him up on Friday. I cried for a bit. I was so sad and felt horrible for selling him. I do know that he went to an excellent home where he will get the attention he deserves. I just couldn't ride him till I lost some weight and felt more comfortable in the saddle. well can't do that if I don't get on the horse.So we went around all day yesterday looking at horses. We found some to look at an hour and a half away. if Kirk gets everything done in time today that he has to do then we are going to go down and look.Hoping to find something soon and cheap enough that I have enough money left to get Kirk one as well. I think it would be so fun to go out riding as a family even if it is just in our woods. I would get to see alot more of our land if I had a horse. LOL We have about 20 acres of it and a 4 wheeler isn't going through alot of it. I know the kids would have a blast going riding up through there. Our next big thing would be to get a trailer and haul them up to the lake to ride. What a great family day that would be.

Haley funny/sad

Yesterday she was watching ER with me and there was a guy who had a younger brother. All of a sudden she looks at me and says "I want a baby brother" I kinda giggled and said "You do" she says "yes" so I tell her to ask her dad. I call Kirk and she gets all excited and tells him "I want a baby brother" I can here the shock in his voice on the other end of the line as he tells her "No you can't have a baby brother" so she gets the sadiest look on her little face and hands the phone to me and says "Him said no" and then she cries. I felt so bad for her but on the upside she has not asked for one again. Hoping she forgot she wanted one, since we really can't give her one.

Going back to the gym

Mom and I are starting back to the gym this next week. Not really looking forward to going but I h ave to do something to get this weight off. I am about to start eating a protien bar and yogurt for breakfast and lunch everyday.that should help. I will see how things are going first. I'm just afraid of failure. Not sure what that would do to me if I can't do this. Mom keeps telling me I will have to have gastric bypass to lose the weight. I really hope not for more reasons then one. so wish me luck in all this. Lord knows I'm gonna need it

Joey's last game

Well he had his tournament today over in Richmond for his indoor legue. they lost the game 4 to 0 and Joey made one of their goals. LOL He was trying to get the ball away from the goal but I guess he got turned around or smoething and kicked it right into the goal.I about died. Oh well life happens. this child is a bullet when he wants to be. It's like he has gears. When he kicks it into high gear he can't be touched. No one can catch him. We just need to teach him how to use that to his advantag. He can outrun Jessie if he kicks into that gear. No doubt in my mind. Mom says she has seen him do it. I just whish he used it more often during these games. You can see the exact second he hits it too. We have decided that when he gets into middle school which is the soonest he can join he is signing up for track as well as soccer. Kirk and is going to start running with him and Jessie both the begining of March when it warms up just a but. I think the girls and I will go along and at least walk the track. Can't hurt.

What a day

Well first thing morning I get a call from the school nurse saying Sarah is sick and to come get her. So as Haley and I are getting on our shoes Haley is running around the house saying we're coming to get you Sarah. Over and over again. Well we get there and I had to go to her classroom to get her backpack and on the way back I stoped at the lunchroom to turn in the check for Joey and Sarah's breakfast/lunch milks and find out that we owe more money due to Joey buying his lunch when I send it. Well not too bad so we leave and on the way home I have to stop for gas. No biggie but after I fill up the tank I go to start the van to leave and it wont start. The clock on the radio is wrong so it is like my battery just up and died with no warning. I call my mom who calls Ivan and they both come to save me. Ivan jumps the van and it starts right up. Well I talked to Kirk several times thoughtout all this wanting to know what to do if/when we get it started. He told me to take it to Elwood( our machanic) Well he says you have a bad battery. We guessed this much already. So I have him put me in a new one. It is like working a jigsaw to get the battery in and out of this dang car. Elwood said they do this so you don't work on them yourself. HA well they (the company) still are not getting my money. I take everything to elwood that Kirk can't fix. I don't blame him for not wanting to change the battery on this thing. anyway $103.23 latter I have a new battery. My check engine light had been on for a long time but we never did anything about it since the van was running well. guess what. It was the battery that made it come on. go figure.And this all happened by 10 a.m. I'm crawling in a hole and hiding.LOL
Poor Sarah is still trying to keep food/drink down. I feel so bad for her but she isn't even running a temp. Very odd.Wish I could make her feel better.

Joey funny

This past MOnday I took him shoe shopping and after we went to walmart to get a few things. Well tomatoes was on the list. He was helping me find some good ones since they were not that good.He picked one up and turned it over and said "Oh this one is dead" I laughed and asked him if he said it was dead and he said "yes look at it" he showed me and it was rotton on that side. I'm just glad I was getting them from the other bin.

Went shopping and some Haley funnies

Well we went shopping Friday with my gift cards Kirk got me for Christmas. I had a blast. The ladies had fun throwing stuff at me and telling me to try them all on. I tried on all kinds of stuff and lots that I would have never even looked twice at but it actually looked good on me.LOL go figure.

Haley was in the shower with me on Sat. so she could spend the night with my mom and she didn't have to give her a bath for church and when we were getting out she said "Mom don't let everyone see your boobies" I told her well you are seeing them. so she looks at me and does her little attitude thing she does so well and says "Yes but I'm your honey" Ok first no one else could see me and second Honey to her is child.

At church yesterday mom was talking to Haley at hte break the fast potluck and was saying how big she was getting and looked all sad and Haley looked straight into her eyes and said " I can grow down mamaw" We all just said AWWWWWW how sweet. If only they could really do that.

OMG

I can't believe it. I applied for some CT spots and didn't get on full time with any yet but I did get a guest spot on Blythe Evens team and am sooooo excited. I never thought I would get on another one.
