It may not be perfect...

balancing life and stuff.

2010-03-24T19:09:00.000-07:00

Only recently have I really been able to balance everything. I sort of think it might have something to do with the fact that I'm taking time out in the day for my workout. Since March 1st, I've been working out regularly... like almost daily. It really has helped a lot. I look forward to my time to just tune in my music and go for a walk or workout on the elliptical. I think it was a healthy choice, both mentally, physically. I feel better in the morning, more clear minded... it's amazing that something so simple can really make a difference in your attitude.

Dear Blog... it's been to long.

2010-03-10T21:23:00.000-08:00

Wow, It's been a long time. For some reason I just can't seem to keep up with the blog world... anyway here I am again. Today was Christians first birthday and it was an awesome day. Got up and decorated the house, made his cake and ran some errands. Next thing I knew his party was over and I had a mess to clean up. I'm so glad that we have a video camera so I can watch him eating his first cake again and again... it was so hilarious. He was not shy at all about just digging in :) I still can't believe that a year ago I was in the hospital and at about this time (11:29 pm) I was probably crying and asking the nurse to take him in the nursery because I was so tired and had not slept in almost 2 days and he wouldn't stop crying... haha what a day that was. It's fun to look back at it, but I'm in no rush for that to be reality again. Well better go to bed, got work in the morning :)

Poor Baby...

2009-08-20T16:48:00.001-07:00

Well, Christian had to go to the Doctors today. My little baby got a cold. I'm not really sure where from, but my guess it is from the church nursery. He did get some medicine, hopefully it clears up soon. I feel so bad for him. Love you pumnkin!

Baby food.

2009-08-18T10:41:00.000-07:00

Sunday, me and Josh went to walmart and stocked up on some jars of baby food. Well Josh just had to get a jar of Chicken and chicken broth. For some reason he wanted Christian to try meat. Well, yesterday I opened it up to feed him some and His face was priceless. If i could upload pictures i would upload one but he deffinetly didn't like it. I smelled the jar and I almost threw up, it smelled like cat food. That was my final decision maker right there that I'm going to make my own baby food. You never know what you're going to get when you buy it. I really think that is was cat food. Yuck.

Sundays are for rest.

2009-08-17T06:15:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was probably the best sunday that we'd had for quite a while. Nobody was sick, Josh didn't have to work. We started the day out quietly, not with the baby waking us up. Actually I had to wake up him to give him a bath. We then went out to eat and went to church. The service was good, AND I actually got to enjoy it because I put the baby in the nursery and didn't feel bad about it for once. I think its because its a little older now, because when he was just a newborn, it was hard for me to put him in there. After church we went by walmart, and grabbed a bunch of baby food. I've started buying the jars instead of the plastic because I want to start making my own baby food, and i need jars to put it in. After walmart, we headed over to Joshs friends house, were we just sat outside and had conversation. It was nice, after being stuck in the house for a week that is exactly the kind of day I need. After that we came home, Josh made dinner and we just sat around. It was a perfect day. A little bit of everything. Church, friends, and relaxing. :)

(Oh i forgot, before we left for church, Josh was looking for his wallet and it turns out that I washed it... ooops)

baby weight...

2009-08-14T15:03:00.000-07:00

I regret now, eating all that ice cream when I was pregnant. I am determined, though, to get this last 10 pounds of baby weight off before October. That leaves me about a month and a half to get on the ball. I have a exercise video that I do, but its hard to keep doing the same thing everyday. I have yet to find a diet that I can actually stick too.

Anyways, on a different note, Josh started a different job this week. He's happy so that makes me happy. I just wish his hours weren't so chaotic. I never know if hes going to be home at 2 o'clock in the afternoon or 8 o'clock at night. It drives me crazy, and it makes dinner hard to make, not knowing when to start making it. I think I'll just do what my mom did. Make it at the same time everyday, and put a plate away for him. I guess that makes sense. I don't like eating so late into the day, thats probably part of my weight problem. haha

It's been forever.

2009-08-13T09:20:00.001-07:00

It seems like it has been forever since I last wrote. I guess it has been like six months. The baby has came and grown. He was only 6.8 lbs when he was born and now he is nearly 20 lbs. Next month he will be six months old already, where does the time go? I can't imagine how much bigger he will get in the next year. I'm very excited to watch him grow though. I was supposed to start going to college this month. Unfortunatly the financial aspect of it didn't go as planned. I guess it could be a good thing or bad, depending on which way you look at it. I wasn't to bummed out because i'm happy to be able to spend my time with the baby, not trying to get school work done. He's finally to the age where he can interact with you and I don't want to miss a thing. It seems like he will be crawling soon. He already gets up on all fours, but all he can do now is go backward. I don't know what I'll do when he starts crawling! Everything will have to be moved up, up, up :) Well i better go, I hear him walking up for his nap.

Can't wait...

2009-02-05T04:00:00.000-08:00

Well, I'm finally in my 9th month. Can't wait for Christian to get here already. I'm getting very excited, more and more each day actually. I had a doctors appointment on tuesday and she said he is moving down quite a bit. Me and Josh finally went and bought a car seat the other day. It was a bit harder to find one than I thought it was going to be. But we suceeded after countless stores. If we were having a girl, things would be so much easier. Seeing how there is always tons of girls things to choose from and only like one boy item. There is still quite a bit of small things that we need. Those will have to wait til payday though.

January...

2009-01-19T04:33:00.000-08:00

Well it's already 2009. Time seems to just be flying by. Nothing really is new around here thats for sure. We had a good holiday season and now we're back to the same ol' thing. Well for a few more weeks anyway. I'm 34 weeks now, so It won't be much longer until everything changes. It's deffinetly going to be different, but I'm excited and ready for the most part. Tomorrow I have to go to a WIC appt. Well I better get back to babysitting. I'll update more later

29 weeks.

2008-12-19T06:25:00.000-08:00

Doctors again...

2008-12-15T08:32:00.000-08:00

Well I finally got to the doctors today. I was supposed to see her last week but she was delivering a baby so I had to reschedule. I figured that would happen when I chose her to be my doctor, she's in practice by herself. Which is what I like because I like to know who I'm going to see and know that the doctor will know me. But everything is fine, got to listen to the babys heartbeat again. I went shopping on saturday, it was supposed to be christmas shopping for Josh, because it was one of the rare times I went by myself... but I looked everywhere and couldn't find him anything. So I have no clue what I'm going to get him. I did find a cute outfit on sale for the baby though and a piggy bank. We decided we'd start filling it when he was born.

It's been many months...

2008-12-10T08:49:00.000-08:00

Since I've last wrote on here, and a lot has changed. Now living down south and enjoying the winter without snow, although at times i miss it. Like last night, me and Josh drove around looking at christmas lights and it just didn't seem right without the snowy backround. I have another doctors appt. tomorrow, to check to diebetes. Not really looking forward to getting my blood drawn again but it has to be done. I actually sent out christmas cards a few days ago. I wanted to get them out early so then family had my address to send some back. Well I better get going the library is filling up and I've been on the computer long enough. :)

new phone

2008-06-16T10:58:00.000-07:00

Well, I finally switched to at&t and got a new phone. Its pretty cool though, because i have unlimited internet use and text. Im actually writing this blog on my cell phone.

looked fun.

2008-05-17T17:21:00.000-07:00

I copied Amie and I made a picture montage, it looked fun.

Graduation is only a week away... :D

Can't sleep...

2008-05-10T22:27:00.000-07:00

It's about 1:20 in the morning and I just can't sleep for some reason. I remembered my blog and thought it was time for an update. Only 13 days exactly til graduation. I'm overly excited about it. As much as I want it to come, I know that I'm going to miss my friends dearly. I don't think that I'll keep in touch with half of them, because people just naturally drift apart but I do love them. If it wasn't for them, I probably wouldn't even go to school half the time. It's going to be a bitter sweet day thats for sure. Still, I can't wait to be done with high school. Just the accomplishment alone will get me excited for my next goal. Which is a goal that I don't really know of yet, but It will come to me in time. I just trust God to lead me in the right direction and I know he'll do a good job. I'm kind of getting tired now, so I'm going to try this sleep thing one more time...

18.

2008-04-15T18:32:00.000-07:00

So the time is finally here. I'm only two and a half hours away from being eighteen. Which I've been excited and waiting for, for a while now. I don't really know why, maybe it's just because then your finally looked at as an adult. I'm not really sure what I'm going to do on my birthday yet. I think I'll do stuff that only 18+ can do, like go to the casino or something ha.

Day off of school.

2008-04-09T09:09:00.000-07:00

We got another day off of school today. Not really sure why... but I'm thinking it's a teacher in-service. It was a day that I needed though so I could get some graduation stuff done. I ordered my announcements, which I'm pretty excited about. I also got my gown, cap and tassel which is sweet... Only a like a month and a half til I'm done. :) And of course it snows on the day that we don't have school... like always. It's like the weather knows that we won't have school so it turns all bad outside after a week of sunshine.

:)

2008-03-27T19:47:00.000-07:00

It seems I never really have anything interesting to say on this blog. Then again, that doesn't really surprise me because I like to keep most of my thoughts to myself. Which probably isn't always a good thing but sometimes I say things that just tend to offend people, which isn't what I intend to do. It's just confusing.
My teachers say that I'm to closed minded and opinionated... I say they just say that because I don't eat up every word they say and I'm willing to hold my OWN opinion. Which does bring up something I'd like to talk about. Something I hate about Schools and Teachers... The fact that they want you to believe everything they way they see it. I hardly listen to my teachers. I listen when they give out assignments and I do them and turn them in but when they are lecturing I just shut them out and day dream so my mind isn't infected with their B.S. I feel bad for the students less foruntate who don't know not to always believe what they hear.

20 days til my birthday :)

2008-03-10T08:02:00.001-07:00

So basically, I can't wait to graduate. I finally ordered my cap and tassle and I can't wait to get out of here. Just being in the school right now makes me angry. The people here are stupid and they have double standards for just about everything... YEAH.

March.

2008-03-03T13:47:00.000-08:00

Well, It's been almost two months since I last wrote. I guess I kind of forgot that I even had a blog. I haven't really been doing to much though. Just going to school and work. Schools going all right. I'm pretty much just waiting to graduate. Spring break is coming up and I don't really have any plans for that. I might to go Green Bay with some friends and go shopping.. But who knows, maybe I'll just sit around Munising. The weather has been pretty decent though so that makes me happy. I just hate winter, It's pretty depressing.

Back again.

2008-01-16T18:04:00.000-08:00

So something happened with my last blog. It like deleted itself or something to that nature. Not much has happened since then though. It is now exam week and I really just want it to be over. I'm done stressing out about stupid Astronomy. I'm pretty sure that I won't be recieving that 1/2 a credit but its okay because I worked hard my junior year and recieved an extra credit. Either way I'll still have enough to graduate. Which is the next topic on my list. Graduation is creeping up on me and I haven't even ordered my cap and tassle yet. I'm far behind. All the other seniors have their sweatshirts, t-shirts and have ordered their yearbook. I haven't done anything. I will have to just get to that when I can.
