Gabby's 3rd Birthday!

Gabby's 3rd birthday party was a HUGE success! :) We rented a moonwalk and had it from Friday night until Monday morning. We had a HOUSE FULL! A good friend I used to work came up Saturday night and ended up staying all night! I had Gabby, Lexie, Roy, Faythe, Jeni, Chunk, Isis, Daphne and Pops stay all night. Still can't believe she's 3 already!





She doesn't like being sang to! LOL







Gabby and her big sister Faythe!

Here's a few updated pictures of my rugrats!

I guess I really suck at blogging!  LOL  Been quite awhile since my last post.  Gabby is going to be 3 in less than a month!  Where in the world has the time gone?

In a few of my posts I've talked about Tommy. I can honestly say a LOT has changed with him.  He got into some trouble at his Dads house in February of 2011 and was put on probation.  Since getting in trouble he has all passing grades, has NOT been kicked off the bus or out of school, has had NO detentions.  He's really growing up.  It's sad that it took something like this to make him straighten up, but maybe with him being so young he will learn to stay OUT of trouble.  He's still very talkative, and fidgety but that's just Bub. 

Lexie is still at her Dads house.  One minute she wants to come  back and live with me and the next minute she's wanting to stay at her Dads.  She just turned 13 a few weeks ago (4-5), and is a typical teenage girl.  I miss her, but I just want her to be happy.

Gabby is almost 3 and is just the smartest 2 year old I have ever met!  She can count to 14, say her ABC's, knows ALL her colors..  The conversations I have had with her recently just simply amaze me!  It's been so long since Tommy & Lexie were this little.  I know for a fact Lexie didn't talk this well at this age.  I know Tommy was talking early, and he's just never stopped!  HA HA

I'm planning Gabby's 3rd birthday party, and I just don't know how big of a party to have.  Is she really going to remember her 3rd birthday?  Or should a big party wait until she's 5 or 6?  Sometimes I feel like a 1st time Mom with her!  Seems so long ago that the other 2 were this little!

I'm still working at Don Pablos.  Been there a little over 2 years now and I'm now a Certified Trainer.  Trying to get them to train me in the bar, but so far that hasn't happened.

Ok well this was going to be a short update but once I start typing it just seems like my fingers keep on going!  It's 2:30 in the morning and I'm having a hard time falling asleep since Adam's at work.  He's driving a flat bed tow truck for Jim's Garage and is on call 24/7.  He's currently taking a car to Indianapolis. Hopefully he's on his way back home.  Going to try to go to sleep without him next to me, but I haven't had any luck the past few nights..

Hope everyone is Happy & Healthy!

It's been over a year?!

I can't believe it's been over a year since I've posted. I'm sure nobody reads this anyways!

Tommy is now 14 and in the 8th grade. He's still having the same problems that we've had every year! 3rd week of school and Tommy was already kicked off the bus for being aggressive. Not sure what to do about him! We go back to his dr in a few weeks.

Lexie is still at her Dads and is wanting to come back home. She keeps telling me as soon as she's old enough to make the decision on her own, that she wants to go back to court and tell the judge herself.

Gabby is now 15 months old and into EVERYTHING! I forgot how exhausting a baby really is. She's walking, running, climbing, and talking! She says so many words it's just crazy! She absolutely loves her bubby and sissy!
I got a new van yesterday and I am LOVING IT!!! I hated my car! It needed a new exhaust and was sooooooooo loud! My van is so quiet that sometimes I can't even tell it's running.

I'm working @ Don Pablo's as a waitress. Been there since March. I really enjoy it. Just wish people would learn how to tip!

Well I guess there's not much more to say right now.. Hopefully I will remember to update this more often!

Later Gator(s),

Gabriella Leigh is here!

WOW it's been awhile since I've updated everyone!

As the title says...Gabriella Leigh is here!

I came to the hospital Wednesday morning @ 6:30 am to be induced. Adam is leaving for South Carolina tomorrow (Saturday) to take care of some family business with his Dad. I talked to the Dr. a few weeks ago and asked to be induced before Adam leaves, IF Gabby didn't make an appearance on her own by then. He scheduled me for May 20th.

I got to the hospital @ 6:30 am and was hooked up to the pitocin IV by 7:30 am. My nurses were AWESOME the entire time I was in L&D. They made sure I knew that I had a script for pain meds from my Dr just in case I needed them. I went almost all day w/ no meds, the contractions were managable. As the day progressed so did the contractions. I finally asked for my pain meds and they were great! LOL

Once the first round of pain meds wore off I asked for some more. They told me the 2nd round wasn't going to be as effective as the first and boy were they right! When the contractions were getting to the point that I couldn't take them much more, my nurse decided she would check my cervix. I was dialated to 3 1/2 so she called and got the epidural ordered. Once I got that and wasn't in anymore pain Adam asked the nurse how long it would be for me to be ready to deliver. She said it could be Noon the next day!!! I was not happy about that! LOL He decided he was going to go ahead and go to work and try to rush through it.

He left and the nurse came back in and decided to check me again. I was already dialated to a 6 or 7 (her words), so I called Adam and told him he should probably come back to the hospital. When he got back (in about 10 min LOL) the nurse came back in and said she checked and I was @ a 7. We sat here for about 20 minutes when I started to feel a LOT of pressure. At first I didn't really say anything, but then it got so bad I HAD to tell the nurse. She decided to check me again and I was @ a 10 and she could feel Gabby's head so she went and got the Dr and everyone else.

I pushed 3 times and Gabby arrived at 1:41 AM weighing in at 7 lbs 6 oz and 19 1/2 inches long. She is absolutely PERFECT!!!

I never imagined myself with another baby, but now I couldn't imagine my life w/o Gabby and she's less than 48 hours old!

Tommy and Faythe (Adam's daughter) have met Gabby, unfortunately Lexie hasn't yet. She is coming home this weekend (tonight hopefully) so she will get to meet her baby sister soon enough.

Going to put some pictures in and end this post. Just wanted to let everyone know that things went very well and that Gabby is perfect! :-)

Been Awhile.....

I haven't updated in quite awhile and I've had aLOT on my mind lately. Just some stuff, nothing major.

I went to the Dr. a week ago and lost another 4 lbs! I was just shocked! I don't really do anything that would cause me to lose weight! The Dr. asked if I had any other children at home and I told her I had a 12 year old so it wasn't like I had a toddler I was chasing around. Well I was also told they are trying to get ahold of my OBGYN, because I go to the Health Clinic for now, because the Ultrasound showed that the baby is measuring small. They are trying to see if he is going to want another Ultrasound towards the end of this pregnancy. Hopefully it's just a small baby! I never had anything like this with the other 2, so I'm kinda a little freaked out.

I'm sitting here right now watching The Biggest Loser, which I am SO! addicted to! LOL I don't watch a lot of reality shows but I never miss this one. Adam is at his classes for the fire station, and Tommy is in the shower. Gives me a few minutes to post a blog. I don't even know if anyone reads this.

Some of the things I've been doing a lot of thinking about is Tommy! I'm so ready for him to stop acting like a 6 year old! He is going to be 13 in July and there's times I think he acts like he's still a little kid. I guess I don't really know how to explain what it's like. He's in middle school, isn't he supposed to start getting more responsible? Isn't he supposed to stop playing with toys? I guess I never really was around boys growing up since I had 2 sisters, so I'm not entirely sure how 13 year old boys really act when they aren't showing off. LOL

Ok well I guess that's all I really have to blog about right now. I hope everyone is Happy & Healthy! :-)

Ultrasound / Post January 7, 2009

Went and had my Ultrasound yesterday. (January 6, 2009) They did the 4-D, and I can tell you those are just AMAZING!!!!!





There's just a few of the pictures. They are thinking it's a girl but she was breach and it was hard to tell so Adam is STILL hoping for his boy! The ultrasound tech said if we do buy anything pink to keep the receipts just in case.

Well there's a lot going thru my head right now that I really don't feel like blogging about right now so I'm going to end it w/ this!

Hope everyone is happy & Healthy! :)
