The Not So Many Faces of Mono...

So leave it to my Kaitlynn to get it..Yes she got Mono. Have no clue how. Heck I haven't heard of anyone having it in like forever. Seems like she has been sick for months now!! Her poor immune system is just shot, so she seems to pick up anything and everything. She is not even 2 and has step 4 times since October. No kidding. Her tonsils are just horrible. Her doctor had shown me them when we were the other day. Broke my heart.
With the mono..she sleeps ALL the time. No kidding. She is only awake for a few hours at a time here and there. But even when asleep, its not good sleep, cause her tonsils are so big and nasty, she coughs and gags in her sleep. She is miserable, and has the saddest eyes. I finally caught a picture of her awake LOL..its kinda blurry..but you can see just how sad she looks. I cant wait to get her tonsils out!! We are going back to the ENT here in a few days. He wanted to wait till Juneish when we were there last a few weeks ago..as she was a bit small and young he said..but since the 4th round of strep and now mono..it will be very soon! So I am hoping it helps her and we can finally get her healthy and feeling better!!

Chris's Birthday Party..oops..Im late

Well..my sweet son is 8 now. And I'm lame and forgot to add some pics of his party LOL. So here are a few of his day. I'm bummed cause I didn't get some very good shots. But we did get some. And we still have his Baptism to look forward to in April. So I'll for sure be getting way better pictures then LOL.
Chris had a really nice party. Full of family and a few friends. He had gotten a new bike (which is really needed), a cd player for his room with a attachment for his MP3 player. Hes been losing more hearing and isnt able to listen to his MP3 player anymore, as he has to take out his hearing aids to use it and then he cant hear a thing!! GGRRR..so we found him this one and he can now listen to all the things on his MP3 player in his room!! He was excited for that. And his sweet Grandpa and Grandma got him his first set of scriptures with his name on them. He was all smiles when he saw that!! Tim wanted to get him his first suit for his birthday for his baptism..so we took him to Farrells and got him his first suit! How stinkin cute is he!!! He picked out 2 ties to with it. What a handsome boy!!
HAPPY 8TH BIRTHDAY My sweet son!!!

And I have no idea why the pics are all over the place..I couldnt figure out how to change it!!

A New Adventure...

So I have decided to try my hand at selling Mary Kay products. Which may sound a bit strange coming from me LOL. But it never hurts to try right?!?

I had gone to a Mary Kay party a few weeks ago, and just fell in love with their skin care products!! My skin felt amazing!! So that kind of sparked an interest with me for some reason. So I did some research on the internet and asked around...and with lots of thinking, pondering, and praying..I decided to give it a try. It sounds like, and I hope it will be worth it all, but I figure, if anything I get to use some amazing products and maybe help some friends along the way. As well as give me something fun to do that's just for me. So we will see where it takes me.

Anyway..I am posting this to see if anyone I know uses these products or would like to use these products. I literally just started and would love to be able to be someones 'go to person' for their products!!! I should be getting my catalogs here in the next few days or you can look at the whole catalog on the internet at www.marykay.com if you are interested in anything, and I will be glad to order anything for you!! So please please..pass the word!! :)

Or if anyone has done this before I would love some feedback!!! Thanks alot!!

11 years???? WoW

So Tim and I have been married 11 years today. Is that even possible?? LOL Holy cow where does the time go? I swear I say that alot..but come on..time needs to slow down just a bit I think. I tried to add a few pics..but alas my scanner still sucks LOL. Soo sorry no pics.
I had told Chris that Tim and I had been married 11 years today..he sat there for a sec..You could see the wheels a turnin'...then he says " you have been married 11 years?" I said "Yes"...more thinking.."Mom, you got married when you were 14?" I laughed and said "No"..He continues with "But you said you were 25?!" hehehe I forgot I had him convinced I was still 25. LOL. And I keep forgetting he knows math now!! Dang Ive been caught!! LOL
Seriously though..I cant imagine that I have been married to my sweet husband for 11 years. Its been a ride! A few moves, 3 kids, 2 dogs, a cat, 2 hampsters..and lots of love. We have had our ups and downs. But I wouldnt change them for anything. They have made us who we are and make us stronger together. Its been a blast and I love every minute of it.
I love him for who he is, who he was, and who he is going to be. He has given me something more precious then anything..to be a mom. He is my best friend and I couldnt imagine life without him. And I cant wait to see what forever bring us!!! I love you babe!!! Happy Anniversary!!

Christofer Turns 8!!!

Here it is..February 1st, and I cant believe my first born is turning 8 today. It is a trip to think about how fast time goes. I could make this blog 10 miles long with all the things I could say about my sweet blue eyed boy. And most of that 10 miles would have been pictures. No kidding I was stressing over what pictures to put on this blog!! And then my scanner decided to not want to work. So I dont have any younger ones and I wish I could have added them to show off how absolutly adorable he was.
Christofer Peyton was born February 1. We barely missed the 2/2/2002 birthday by only 4hrs!! Dang it. He was 6lb 8oz and just as sweet as you could get. He was the best little baby you could ever ask for. Awesome sleeper, not a crier and just the cutest (yeah I say that alot about him!!) thing you want! He was and is one of the funniest kids. Never a dull moment with him. And of course..Those eyes. Who can resist those eyes!!!!! The most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen. You can see his little soul through them.
Here are a few pictures that I was able to get to upload. I thought they should a bit of his personality.
Ok so I just adore his smile..it lights up a room!!
He is absolutly a Daddy's boy!!!
Ok did I mention how cute he is??
He has the sweetest little spirit about him
And a bit crazy!! We find him alot with things drawn on himself!!
He is our Superhero kid!! He has been through it all and overcomes it all!!
He takes a lickin (in this case..a big one!)..and keeps on ticking!
He is one of the funniest kids I have ever known!
And of course..a HUGE Steeler fan!!!!
I cant wait to see who this little man turns into. I am so proud to have him as my son! He lights up my life and I wouldnt be a mommy if it werent for him.
Happy Birthday sweet boy!!!
