I'm still pregnant!

One more stinking day! I'm hoping my doctor will stop being so stubborn and induce me already! I have an appointment tomorrow and am wishing for the best.

Almost There!

As of today, I have 7 DAYS LEFT!! It feels like eternity, but I'm almost there. At this point in pregnancy, I don't know which is worse: morning(or in my case, all day) sickness; or lugging around this massive kicking load in front of me. It's a toss up! Only 7 days...

New House?!

James just talked to a loan officer(?) about getting a loan for a house! We have to have our credit checked and have some forms filled out before Oct 1st; then we would qualify for the $8,000 from the government. We would also get $5,000 for buying our first home through this bank. Can we say down payment!! Now I don't know all about what goes on to buy a house; but I'm still pretty excited!! Especially since we recently found one online we fell in love with!! Wish us luck that all goes well!!

"Glee" starts tonight!! We're so excited to see it again!

Poor Jarrett had a tummy ache last night. He's been a little constipated so we've been giving him a laxative. I thought the tummy ache was from that, so we sent him to bed hoping he would relax enough to sleep. Low and behold, about 20 minutes later he came out of his room crying. He was covered in vomit! So James took him to get cleaned up and he was so sad. James asked him what was wrong and he said "I threw up on my dog". He didn't care so much that it was all over him, his bed and his pillow, just that it was on his dog.

Day of firsts

It's a day of firsts in our house today.
It's Rachel's 1st day of 1st grade!(I made it there and back without shedding a tear!) I can't believe I have a little girl in the first grade! Where has the time gone? This is good for all of us; mostly because now Rachel has something to do and won't be fighting with everyone so much.
It's also the first time I'll have one-on-one time with Jarrett...

Cherry Hill

We took the kids to Cherry Hill to go miniature golfing.
We spent a good hour and a half there, well worth the memories and the smiles!!
Just ignore my extra bulkiness here. I only have 6 weeks left!!!

What happened to my sweet little girl?

Isn't being pregnant hard enough without a 15-year-old stuck in a 6-year-old body?! I swear Rachel could be 15 with all the fit-throwing, door slamming and yelling in my face she does every day of her life! Sometimes I just want to throw in the towel! Am I really that bad of a Mom if I don't want my kids to have candy every single day? If so, shame on me. I would give anything if we could have one happy day together where both of my children act like the little angels I know they are. But then life would be too easy, right? Here's to parenting!

Happy Birthday Rachel!!

This past March Rachel fell off the monkey bars at the park and landed right on her arm, breaking it. 8 x-rays and I think 2 months later, she finally got her cast off.
This was her Christmas Program for school
4th Birthday
Easter
Rachel starts 1st grade this year and is super excited. I'm also excited as well as scared. I'm sure I'll get over it. We love you Rachel, Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Rachel!!

Rachel is 6 years old today!! Once again, these are out of order, but oh well!
