Our Cinderella!

On Friday, mini me woke up crying saying that her head hurt. She was laid up on the couch all day- that night i took her into the Dr. and she threw up in the waiting room. ( thank goodness no one was around- she had 19 mo sissy narrating.. ewwwwwwww.. dossssssssss as she tossed her cookies)Dr. tested her for strep and flu and both were negative- he figured it was a secondary virus she got from having flu 2 wks prior, so immune system was down. She continued to be laid up, with a fever and no eating. Saturday came and i was SUPER bummed.

Girl Scouts puts on this Daddy/Daughter dance that's a HUGE deal around here. Full blown dinner, dessert, dancing, photgrapher, the whole shebang! 60 bucks for NON-REFUNDABLE tickets! She wanted to use her flower girl dress she wore in a wedding last year, so we had it cleaned, bought a new bow, shoes, wristlet, and rhinestone head band. She was set- we called all the people we knew just to GIVE her tickets away, to no avail. she started getting a litte energy after a nap, so i put her all together and was super excited that she'd be able to go with her daddy since they'd been planning this for OVER a month!

They got to the dance and she was feeling terrible! she was laying her head on the table after only 20 min- the event was THREE hours long. I told the husband to just stick it out thru the photographer so we could at least have pics!! They did, and then left.. no dinner, no dancing.. uh.. i was HEARTBROKEN!!! so so sad! ....

Sat night, all of Sunday she was S-i-c-k! Thankfully they called off school due to all the snow here - uh.. we had N*O*N*E! but.. i figured it would give her one more day to heal... to no avail. She woke up this morning STILL sick, crying.. and with a temp.

Took her to Dr. this morning.. she has a full blown left ear infection, and a secondary infection-- she's pretty bad. But nothing a little anti-biotics cant fix! they had to give her a shot to give it a jump start- it was BRUTAL! i guess its super thick and very painful cause i about lost my hearing when they gave it to her. The nurse warned me.. she asked if she'd had one before, and mouthed to me : "its baaaaaaaaaaaaaad"-

They dont want her back at school until FRIDAY, so were renting movies the next few days- good ol'd REdbox ;) - Thanks to them, HSM3 is playing right now.

Enjoy the pictures of our Cinderella and the Prince in her life right now.. WHAT PRICELESS PICTURES, I JUST LOVE THEM!

Look who thought was going too- lol. She had her lunch box, and 6 binkies to take with her.. so funny! yes.. the outfit is even funnier. she picked it all out-

Leaving-notice the hair.. i curled it ALL, we're talkin this chick has soap opera hair.. and i did a side pony that had soft curls.. so pretty.. she had this DAINTY silver headband with tiny rhinestones in it.. so classy-

I've FREAKING had IT!

About a month ago, i got some new neighbors next door.. after having it vacant for MONTHS- ... they have a daughter. a teenage one. uh... The first time i saw her, i tried to make conversation, and welcomed her here. SHE .HAS.NOT.SPOKEN.TO.ME.SINCE. She's so rude! i will smile and say hi, she looks away. that just makes me mad.. no respect.!!

Last week, she started hanging out with this boy and his two tag alongs.. they just sit and hang out on the metal stairs outside my bedroom wall. I was taking a afternoon nap and they started running up and down the stairs- they woke me up.. that's like waking a bear from hibernation. i walk out there, look at them and said: "WHO is running up these stairs? I have a baby that's sleeping and my room is right there, could you PLEASE be considerate and not do that? " The oldest boy had eyes the size of gumballs and said : "yes, maam. " i am the type that re-thinks EVERYTHING i say or do after i do it.. i thought.. maybe i wasnt nice enough. So, that night i saw them and walked up to them.. they were probably freaked. i said :" hey guys.. i love that ya'll hang out here, please dont think i dont. i said you guys woke me up and i was just flustered that's all. " I thought it was a NICE gesture on my part. Two days later.. i hear snickering and BANG- they hit the wall directly behind my bedboard.. scared the snot out of me.

Sat.. i walk out to my car.. ITS BEEN EGGED! good lord.. seriously?! RESPECT.. i could strangle them.. but i have no PROOF it was them.. funny how i never had problems until this bratty child moved it. Unfortch, her parents work ALL.THE.TIME which means the brat runs the muck while they're gone.

This morning.. she slams the front door, i 'm not exaggerating.. at least 20 times in 5 min. i'm shaking i'm so mad..

so..i call the office and give them the run-down.. THEY can take care of it.

my question is: " WHERE THE HELL DID RESPECT FOR AUTHORITY GO?! " seriously.. i'd like to tell off each of them and slap them all in the face.. if that was MY kid.. i would ground her for the attitude.

I.COULD .SCREAM! ( and her parents are SO nice.) April 16th cant come fast enough.. but i'm NOT backing down from some junior highers.. BRING IT ON, you little brats..

TOO BAD THE PINK OWL CANT SICK HER POSSE' ON THIS GIRL AND GIVE HER A GOOD SCARE!

UPDATE:

its now 6 pm- i called the office for the door situation. It stopped. THEN, i go to take the dog to the bathroom, like i do every hour and the 5 kids are just hanging out in front of our door since that girl lives next door. i thought her parents were at work, but apparently BOTH home. I go to take dog out again, and there is a shattered glass bottle everyhwere, i call apt office again. A boy cleans it up.. or so i thought.. i just go to take dog out AGAIN and the little **** swept it INTO THE GRASS AT THE END OF THE HALL so my dog and kids can step in it. called the office AGAIN and hopefully should be taken care of.. THESE KIDS ARE GOING TO DRIVE ME TO THE NUTTY HOUSE!!

Red & Blue, Yellow too.....

Look at Mini Me- SERIOUSLY.. dont you just wanna SQUEEZE her?! ok.. maybe you dont, but i do!! she's so stinkin CAUUUUUUUUUUUUTE! Her school had a play last night they have been working on for MONTHS! she tried out and received a lead part ( Duh.. would she get anything but?! she's an over- achiever and i LOVE that about her!) she had TWO performances - one early in the am and another at night. Lil muffin didnt do well in the am due to nap time calling her and she'd dropped her Bink on the cafeteria floor.. wasnt stinkin that germ infested thing in her mouth! So, we left- She was a buttercup- we used her ballet recital costume from last year, hit up a jr. store and bought her some 5 dolla leggings.. voila!

uh, excuse me! WHEN did she get SO big?!

My 3 FAVORITE peeps in my life! you can tell lil muffin is THRILLED! once again, time for bed and she had a rough 18 mo old day yesterday throwing temper tantrums and spending time in her crib ;)



Ah yes.. remember this cute little nugget?! The Pastors son.. oh.. here he is again! He was in the play as well- his color was black in the play
We'll be saving these pics for their wedding slide show ;)

mini Me's Teacher, Ms. Georgia Peach -

Mini Me just ADORES her.. the thought of not being with her next year makes me too sad for words!

Yes, i color coordinated with her class- cause i'm cool like that! Dont poke fun of the tan face- did a mystic and forgot to wipe it off along with my hands.. lord have mercy, i look "rusty" As Ga. Peach says- I love this lady! She's my Ga. BFF!

I'm not saavy enought to figure out how to upload a video .. so no video of her part.. i know.. i am LAME!

Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuue!

Was sleeping so peacefully until some inconsiderate I-D-I-O-T starts calling his dog and clapping for him to come to him at 4 AM! hey jerk- newsflash.. there are hundreds of peeps in your complex sleeping at that time- keep it down and if your dog doesnt stay with you, here's a concept, GET IT A LEASH!

I'm irritated.. and almost fall back asleep and boom, boom boom.. someone else runs down the metal stairs right by my head board..

i cant believe how RUDE people are- i'm going to so sick Bon Qui Qui on them!

Just makes me so thankful that i will have my own house and not have to have neighbors above me, i will not have inconsiderate people leaving their dogs piles of crap in the grass for me and my children to step in and i'll have my own driveway- GOD is good ;)

(As for Mr. inconsiderate- if this happens tomorrow, he and i will be having a heart to heart.. as in ME ripping him a new one!)

Newest Obsession

You know those smells that bring back so many happy memories?! Well,,,,, for Valentines Day, the husband signed me up for tanning!!! (nothing says i love you like, GET A TAN!) yahoo!!! Like i always say, tan fat is WAY better than white fat. I know, you're all thinking..Skin cancer. Relax, i tan in the BEST beds they have that DO.NOT have bad rays in them- Onto the yummies ;)

Tanning salons charge IN SANE amounts of money for their lotions- i mean seriously the markup is TRIPLE! Well.. i hit up the ol' google and found myself some and 1/3 of the cost if not more. In doing so, i also ordered THESE two daily moiturizers. The yellow one by Designer Skin called Angel- a clean kiwi/pear fragrance and then my TOP fav, by Australian Gold, Forever After. The yummiest , yummiest smell of a warm vanilla. Seriously, i SLATHER this stuff on DAILY and every time i do it takes me back 7 years ago when the husband and i first met, and it reminds me of when our little mini me was born and the husband took weeks off of work and every day we would take the baby in our cute silver IS300 to the tanning salon...

Gosh, those memories are so cherished- i love these moisturizers- if you are looking for a good one for the spring/summer, this is your lotion!!

Our Casa Es Su Casa!!

The Rumor is TRUE! we have been looking for a house since we moved here and it seems like an easy task, but its extremely frustrating- the county, the schools, resale value, etc etc. Unlike alot of places in the US, the market stays strong here due to major landmarks and companies in the area.

We found a neighborhood we loved- and made a move FAST due to everyone snatching up these houses. Its about 2200 sq ft- 4 bdrm.. i think that grabbed our attention the most was the fact that the living room and kitchen both connected and makes it feel large- we love having people over and that's a plus for us.

Due to living in an apt, we have to put in a 60 day notice- so.. we wont be moving until the first of April. We still get the husbands moving benefits thru work which is a HUGE blessing- i dont have to lift a finger to pack.. woot woot.. let those boys sweat their blood and gutts out packing up all of our stuff..

Now that we have more room, including a FORMAL dining room and a 4th room, my imagination is running wild with what i can put where and what kind of furniture i want.. oh.. the possibilities!!

i'm a little sketched out by putting pics up.. but those of you whose addresses i have will get a address change with pic attatched ;)

the best part? A community pool in the subdivision for all those hot, sticky and humid days - - awwwwwwwwwww yeah.. i'll be sitting pool side, sipping my "mommy juice "

We have some close friends from church that are selling their house and really want to move into this neighborhood too which will ROCK!
