Spring Break

(here's a pic of Jayd and her cousin Drew at the park)
I am so excited for Spring Break, and so are the kids. Nick and I decided to take the week off also so we can spend time as a family. Today we are kicking it off with a Dentist appt. . Ace had to get a few fillings today, they give him a liquid sedative similar to Valium. It can be quite funny. His equal Librium is off and he does some pretty funny things. So needless to say we are sticking around the house. Tomorrow we are gonna go to the local skate rink and spend the day, the kids love this. On Thursday we will head over to the Coast for a couple of days of fun the Saturday we have my beautiful niece Leah's Birthday. It will be fun filled and relaxing all at the same time.
WE also had a surprise Party for Jayd with some of her Friends this weekend I will be going through pics and videos to do a post later this week on it. Her face when she walked in was priceless, she started to cry she was so shocked!! Her expression alone made all the stress and work worth it.
Happy Spring break to everyone.

Hoopster Girls


WE had such a busy weekend! Boy am I glad its over. Jayd had basketball tournaments all weekend, starting Friday night at 7:30. Lets just say thats kinda late for the folks in my house.


The girls did great. WE lost by 1 point on Friday, won on Saturday and win on Sunday. OUr girls did great! I am sooooo proud of them. My heart wants to explode every time i see my girl out there on the court fighting for the ball. She is so sweet and passive it took her along time to really get aggresive on the court. But on Saturday while she was batteling for the ball she got taken down to the ground! Big mistake for the other girl because my 110 lbs. girl fell on top of her! But Jayd did come out with a few bruises. And on Sunday my gril got one of her very few foul's! Yes people I am proud of that! If you ever met her you would be too.


So allas basketball season has come to an end with The Hoopsters ranking 2nd in league and 3rd in tournament!


She is going to do track in April then Softball starts in MAy.....we are busy people over here folks! Very busy!

Oh and the boy gets to play soccer with the Kinders. this season bacause he is 6 in October. Probably an good idea since he towers over ALL of the pre-schoolers.LOL

03/11/1999


Today is the day I became a mother. Jayd Rene was born at 8:41 a.m. weighing 6 lbs. 14 oz. 19 in. long. She was perfect! So tiny and dark and perfect! I loved her more then I had ever loved anything before and I had just met her. I was going to be everything to her. i was going to be the mom that my mom wasn't able to be.

I took all the parenting classes I could before and after she was born. I was going to be the expert! And I was, with allot of help from my mom. Jayd was my world! Everything I did was for her. She brought my mom and I together after so many years apart. She was our Angel. If it wasn't for her I have no clue where I would be or what would have happened between my mom and me.


She was an amazing infant and an even greater 10 year old. I am blessed to be her Mom. There is no greater job that I could do. She made me the woman I am, she completed my life. She made it worth living and living right. Through her I reclaimed my relationship with my mom, built one with her dad, and found God again. I am the one blessed to be called her Mommy.
(I know these pics are blurry, sorry.)

Poor me

I'm sick. I feel terrible. I need sympathy.

I thought I was just tired form the party but when I woke up on Sunday with and ear ache, sore throat, body aches and headache. Well I knew I was sick. So here's to getting better.

Lots of fluids and lots of rest. Oh and plenty of cold medicine!

Turning 10

Today Jayd had a couple of girls stay the night to celebrate her turning 10 on the 11Th. Not a party at first but that's what it turned in to! LOL We had a pinata, Guitar Hero battles and swimming! I am beat, the girls were up til' 3:00 a.m. doing make overs! But no time to fret we have another friends party to get to. So here's a couple of highlights from the evening.




Oh and by the way the pinata was impossible to break. The kids tore it out of the cieling while hitting it so I had them all tear into it and it still took awhile for them to get into it!

Movie Night

Yesterday Nick had a great success at work so we decided to celebrate. We ordered a pizza and rented a couple of movies. LOL I rented The Lucky Ones for us after the kids went to Bed and Labyrinth for us to watch as a family. The Lucky ones looked really good on previews but was actually really terrible, you know the ones where you are just sitting there waiting for something to happen. And nothing does! It was terrible, really. But The Labyrinth however, was as good as when I was a kid. Ace loved it! He was cracking up through the whole thing. There is nothing cuter then hearing your kids giggle non-stop through a whole movie.*sigh* ;) Nothing like the wild life of parenting!

A day with the Boy

Today my mom and I took Ace to see Bolt at the $1.50 movies while Jayd was at a Birthday Party. It was such a cute movie! I strongly recommend it to anyone with kids or just in the mood to see a good cartoon. We had a blast and went looking for any good deals at the mall. Ace and I each got a sweater for $3.60 each. Gotta love a good clearance sale. Then picked Jayd up and had dinner. Not to exciting but really relaxing. Tomorrow Ace has a dentist appt. at 8:00 a.m. so wish me luck! He has to be sedated so he will be out of it for the majority of the day. Maybe I will get a video of him while he is out of it!

Walking to the Bus stop.

My daughter walks half a block to the bus stop for school everyday. If I step outside our Cull-De-sac I can see her the whole way. This year I started letting her walk with a friend by themselves after many a conversation how she's the only one who's mom walks them and waits. Well there is a reason why. A couple of days ago my daughter and friend were on there normal wrought. They crossed another Cull-DE-sac checked for any cars and there were none. They were in the middle of the street when a car whips around the corner swerves towards and around behind them hits my daughters backpack pulling her backwards! My daughter was VERY shackin and was crying at the bus stop when the car comes back around yelling at her to "watch out for her in her car"! I get a phone call from the school shortly after my daughter leaves with all this info. They explain to me that when my daughter leaves our home for school she is at that time in the school custody so she is there responsibility and they are working on pressing charges but I should call and file a complaint with the local police department as well.
Mt daughter is in 4Th grade and I can no longer allow her to walk to the end of our street without an adult because other adults are irresponsible. My daughter is completely trust worthy to walk on her own but because I can not trust other people she will no longer be walking without me. I will be escorting her to and from the stop from mow on. What kind of world are we in when other parents are trying to hit our kids because they are in a hurry? My child's life was not important to this woman so it was no big deal for her to hit her with her car? Thats is obserd abd ridiculous. This woman will suffer the consequences. She will have charges pressed against her. She will suffer for her actions.

Have you met Miss 9?


I don't know if you've heard of her. This Miss 9 I am talking about. I would like to introduce you to her. Female, 4'10", around 100 lbs. . She is a peach I must tell you. She mysteriously appeared about 11 months ago in the form of my beautiful little girl. I have asked her to leave nicely but that hasn't worked she's still here. I forbid her to show her face around here again and yet she is still around! I can't figure out how to get rid of her! I took her belongings and she still stayed. I grounded her for weeks on end and she didn't budge. I can't get the thing out of my house!

Miss 9 is set to leave in a few weeks and I couldn't be happier Miss 10 has kindly offered to take her place(I hope Miss 10 is much more bare able)because Miss 9 is no longer welcome in my home. She has over stayed her welcome. She will no longer have the family living on egg shells. she will no longer have me wondering what personality is coming home from school. She will no longer hate everyone in this house! Good bye Miss 9! And good riddance!

I will end our relationship with a quote from knocked up " I know this is the hormones talking so I just want to tell you hormones F-you, hormones! You are a crazy B!#*h HORMONES! Peace I'm out!"

*this blog is to my daughter. I love and miss you so.
