Well, I know there’s a reason And I know there’s a rhyme
We were meant to be together
That’s why We can roll with the punches
We can stroll hand in hand
And when I say it’s forever
You understand
That you’re always in my heart
You’re always on my mind
And when it all becomes too much
You’re never far behind
And there’s no one that comes close to you
Could ever take your place
‘Cause only you can love me this way
I could’ve turned a different corner
I could’ve gone another place
But I’d a-never had this feeling
That I feel today
Yeah And you’re always in my heart
You’re always on my mind
When it all becomes too much
You’re never far behind
And there’s no one that comes close to you
Could ever take your place
‘Cause only can love me this way
Ooooohh… Na na, somebody love you
And you’re always in my heart
You’re always on my mind
And when it all becomes too much
You’re never far behind
And there’s no one that comes close to you
Could ever take your place
‘Cause only you can love me this way
Only you can love me this way
Today I am so grateful for my dear hubby who gave me my beautiful children. I am so grateful he is such a hard worker, that he will find any work to bring in his share for the family. I am so glad that we have not grown apart during all these hard times in our life. We have continued to face problems/trials face on, hand in hand. I am a lucky girl! Right now I am sitting with Jason watching our usual tv shows and listening to my kids giggle and play with the legos in the other room. The simple things are sometimes the most incredible blessings :) Happy Friday everyone!

Case of the Mondays
I look forward every single day to reading my sister in laws blog because she writes the funniest things. She last blogged with a list of questions she had to answer for getting tagged. She didn't really tag me but I need something to keep my mind from going crazy on this CRAZY monday so here you go. For those of you that don't care, skip it but at least it was fun for me ;)
1.Where is your cell phone: on my desk charging
2.Your hair: in a messy bun............I may or may not have washed my hair this morning.......
3.Your mother: amazing person. She keeps me from going insane! I love her so much!
4.Your father: one of the nicest people you will EVER know. I want to be just like him when I grow up. Always doing stuff for other people and doesn't complain. I love him so much!
5.Your favorite food: wow this is a dangerous question...........being pregnant it really depends on the day. As of right now, spaghetti, oranges, orange juice but give me a day that might all change.
6.Your dream from last night: such an annoying dream. I had it at least 20 times last night, replay over and over... I was laying down at the dr. while Jason sat next to me and was there to find out what we are having and over and over again the dr. would tell me "its a girl" and then I would cry and Jason would sit there with a big grin on his face and the dream would start over again.
7.Your favorite drink: normally I would answer diet dr. pepper, diet coke with lime if no dr. pepper in site and water. Now I drink milk like crazy (must have ice in it), water and orange juice.
8.Your dream/goal: I want to be home with my little kiddos.........to raise them and to be there for them every step of every day. I also have wanted to be on the show "Don't forget the lyrics" for the longest time. Pretty sure I will try out for it ha ha

10.What is your hobby: crafty stuff (mostly making hair accessories), watching tv, being with my cute family.

Family
Makayla is in the "awkward" stage with her teeth. Poor thing has teeth sticking out like a "hill billy", some missing, some huge, some small and all the other problems you can think of with her teeth. BUT her eyes, her beautiful blue eyes seem to jump out at you. Both kids have fair skin, blond hair and piercing blue eyes. She will be chased by the boys when she gets old that is for sure ;) That is if she doesn't chase them first! Daddy has his hands full with this one. 
Brother and sister! The thing I love most about the family pictures we had taken was the fact that there is one more little addition to this family that is present but you can't see. So truly we are a family of 5 and I ADORE my kids and can't wait to see/hold our new son or daughter.
One of the only pics I like out of all of the ones taken of me. I was SO sick in the first part of my pregnancy you can see it in my eyes that I just don't feel well. I do love my hubby so much and this is one of the only pics we have together. Lets just say I don't like pictures of myself. I really like this one and once i have this baby and can drop baby weight I promise we will have a re-do.
I LOVE the look on Kaden's face and how Makayla is starting to crack up. Cute little kids! Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Voting Time!
We find out what we are having in exactly 2 weeks! So I thought it would be fun to do a poll to see what people think.......boy or girl? We already have names pick out for a boy and for a girl and I would be happy with either :)

Frugal Friday
"Mama always had a way of explaining things so I could understand them."
I have been posting so many serious posts lately that I thought I would do something a little different. I am going to laugh myself into feeling good *kapeesh?*
Don't worry I DID fail just about every spelling test I ever took in school, I know I stink at spelling. I also still get mixed up with where, were, effect, affect, and yes I used to spell want, WHANT! SO ground me!
Anyway, I used to post a frugal Friday every week. I would post tips I have learned etc. about how to be a cheap-o! It was fun! I want to hear from you guys, what is the one thing that helps you save money? Do you shop a certain store for groceries, do you coupon clip etc. I want to hear it! I promise I will get back on the Frugal Friday posting by next week!
In case you are asking yourself, "why does she use ! after almost all of her sentances?" It is a habit I picked up long ago. Just like putting a million little periods after typing something.............see what I mean? OH another thing I get mixed up on, meet/meat. LOVE YOU ALL!

What has happened to my week?
What a frustrating week this has been!
Sunday I found myself in the ER with shortness of breath and bad chest/back pains. I knew something terrible was wrong so we headed to Urgent Care around noon on Sunday and they sent me right up to the ER. I spent the entire day there. I had a CAT scan, a chest x-ray, an EKG and blood work done. They thought I had a blood clot in my lung. It was pretty scarey but at the end I was told I had pleurisy. Very VERY painful. I wouldn't wish it on any one. So Monday and Tuesday I spent the time sleeping and crying. Wednesday I went to work and was not doing well so I left around 4:00. From about that time on I couldn't keep a single thing down, not even water. The next morning I had my normal Dr. check up and my Dr. saw me and told me I needed to go in for IV therapy. So I had an appointment at 2:00 for IV therapy. I spent another day in the hospital. This time in a smaller, less comfortable room hooked up to an iv. I had to have 2 liters and pumped full of zofran. I didn't sleep much last night but I am at work today trying my best. I have been able to keep food down so cross your fingers I am over this! Just giving everyone an update as to why you haven't heard from me for a while. Hoping that next week is a little less CRAZY!
