a little update

Well i dont do this often lol so here ya go.
Its that time of year again kids are back in school and the days are getting cooler. And that meens i get more time in the day to get things done... well sorta lol. Machell is in second grade now and is doing good so far, i just hope she keeps it up and this school year is a little better then the last. lol she did however get in trouble the other day but i didnt agree with the teacher. She had a slip sent home for saying a bad word, well when machell told me what happen i almost laughed. She was in the bathroom and read a bad word on the wall out loud without realizeing it was a bad word. And yes i wrote a note right back. I dont think she should of gotten in trouble for that. They should scrub the bathroom walls.
Riley is getting bigger as she is now around 11 pounds maybe more by now and 23 inches. She is getting sooooo active now, can almost grasp things infront of her =0) tummy time is gettng easier for her too now. She still gets mad after about 10 min of it tho lol. She loves to talk to you and munch on her little fingers. Every morning she wakes up she greets me with the biggest good morning smile and we share what we dreamed about that night. Riley is always such a happy baby.
I just started a new job today cleaning for my landlords other tennant she has. The lady is very nice but deff cant keep up with the house cleaning.She has a few medical problems that makes it hard for her to get around. I just have to go to her house twice a week in the mornings and help clean up the house for her and keep her company while her husband is at work. Dave stays home with riley untill i get home then he is off to work also. Its not much but it helps with gas and other things a little bit, she only lives right down the road.
And one last thing, my brother will be leaving the 19th this month for basic training for the nat. guard. I wont see him for quite some time and that make s me sad. But i am so very proud of him. We all are and i wish him luck, this is a big step in his life. i know he will do just fine.

this year

Ok so here it goes....This year has been quite the adventure im not sure where to start but i guess ill start with somewhat of the beginning.Last year i met a man named Dave, we fell in love after a few dates a couple months later. Now this year He proposed to me, wow i thought this handsome man wants to marry me?
 Well he did (Giggles). after he proposed i found out i was prego a month later. Yeah this is where the stress and panic truly sets in. We were living in my fathers basement... how was i suposed to fit a baby in this house? Should we have the wedding befor the birth or after? What if we cant find a place of our own befor the baby is born? And of course the planning of the wedding... Yikes!!! A million questions were running in my head.
  Well we took it one thing at a time we set a date for the wedding after the baby would be born, and started saveing for a place of our own. We decided that july 9th would be great for the wedding. I started talking with my mom and my cousin heather about wedding plans, i was soooo overwhelmed.  lol i hate making plans...
  But anyway my cousin had sooo many great ideas and helped me out sooo many times when i was a freaking mess <3  
  During all the wedding plans we found out the baby was a girl and picked out a name for her Riley ann Loudin. Shortly after we set a date for the birth (c-section) june 3rd. I continued to keep busy with my oldest girl and with wedding/ moving stuff.moveing thing deff was stressfull for me, i had to get out of dads befor this lil one arrived. Dissapoinment after dissapointment we could not find a place for almost 3 months. ugh but.... finaly finaly did i find one? Yes i did!! like a month befor the baby was due... omygoodness. What a load off my mind, i could leave the hospital and have a place for my family to be together. yay!!! And riley came out just as perfect as i thought she would...


    so long story kinda short (lol) within a few months we moved had a heathy baby girl and were married!!
oh and my wedding... well that was another adventure. soo many things whent wrong, i was about to give up an call it off at one point. Nothing whent right that i had pictured in my head. Dream wedding? not exactly.. but i married my dream man and was surounded by the ppl who truly cared an that i truly loved <3

I am now a proud mamma of two awsome girls, i now have a new family who i love to death an a husband that i compleatly adore <3
