Went to the Doctor yesterday. Everything is looking real good so far :-) She did tell me to drink more milkshakes ha ha!! I've lost weight every month so far, except for this month. But I only gained 8/10's of a pound. Which is fine for me, but I guess it's not for the baby! LOL Guess it's time for me to fatten up!
The kids are doing good. Went and picked up Lexie tonight. She's going to stay through Christmas.
The kids and I are going to go to Indy tomorrow. The Cowboys are playing on a Saturday night so I'm going to go watch the game with my sister! :-) Haven't really got to watch a lot of games with Jess lately. Haven't even really got to spend a lot of time with her, and that sucks! I hate living so far away from her! Hopefully she'll move closer soon! (hint hint sean!!!!!!) lol
Ok well that's pretty much all going on right now
Hope everyone has a GREAT HOLIDAY SEASON!

Well it's been a while....
So much has happened since I last posted!
We moved in with my parents at the beginning of September and was there for about a month. Our roommate Heather went completely psychotic and just lost her mind! It was just a mess. We lived with my parents until the beginning of October when we moved into a house. We stayed out in Clarks Hill. I'm loving this house! :-)
Tommy is starting to have some problems again. He goes to the doctor Tuesday and I'm hoping they will increase and/or change his meds around. He is not doing good in school. Has 3 D's and and F as of right now. He was kicked off the bus this past Thursday and then lies to me about it! It's just getting to be ridiculous.
Lexie is still doing good. She comes home about every other weekend. I'm not sure what her grades are because her dad refused to keep me involved for some reason! I dont' care that they live 2 hours away! I would go to the school for parent/teacher conferences or anything else she has going on but of course he just flat out refuses to keep me in the loop when it comes to our daughter.
For those of you that don't know. I'm currently 16 weeks pregnant! We are getting very excited about it. We are both hoping for a boy (will have an ultrasound here in a few weeks to find out). With me having a boy and a girl, and him having a girl, a boy would even things out! LOL
The pregnancy has been pretty hard on me. I've been so sick! I passed out 2 weeks ago at the doctors office and ended up being taken by ambulance to the ER. They said all the tests came back fine but they had to give me fluids because I was dehydrated from being so sick so much. Things are going good right now. I go to the doctor again either this week or next (I can't remember LOL) and after that appt I will come and update and let everyone know how things are going! Oh my due date is May 24, 2009. If that changes after the Ultrasound I will let you know! :-)
Ok well i need to get dinner done before we have to take Lexiebug back to her Dads!
Hope everyone is Healthy and Happy!

Tommy's Birthday...& short update
Alot has happened since I last posted anything.
Today is Tommy's 12th Birthday! I can't believe he is 12 already! My boy is growing up so fast!
I'm now dating an old friend from High School, Adam. I couldn't be happier! He's seriously the best thing that has ever happened to me. (besides the kids, of course). We moved in with him yesterday and going to go get the rest of my stuff tomorrow. I never thought I'd end up with someone I've known for so long, but I think it helps that we've been friends for so long.
Tommy's doing great recently. He's having a little trouble adjusting to the move. We have a roommate Heather. She is also an old friend from High School and we get along GREAT! She has 2 boys. They are 4 and 15 months. I think that's the thing that Tommy is having the most trouble getting used to.
I know this is a short post, but I don't have a lot of time. Adam should be getting home from work soon and we are taking Tommy to Cracker Barrell for his birthday dinner. He got to pick. :-)
Hope everyone is doing good!

Just another day...
Not a whole lot has been happening since I posted last. I hope everyone had a good Holiday Weekend. Mine was kinda boring.
Tommy was with his grandma and Lexie stayed at her dads. I went to my friend Jason's house and went into his huge yard with Jersey (his dog) and him. We could see fireworks from all sides! Jersey was TERRIFIED of the fireworks.
Took Tommy to the Dr. last night. He pulled hangnail sometime last week and when he got home from his Grandma Lena's house his thumb was majorly swollen and was green! YUCK! They had to use a needle to drain it and we are keeping antibiotic ointment and Band-Aids on it. He is packing a suitcase tomorrow and going to his Grandma Lena's tomorrow night. They are leaving Thursday morning to go to Michigan. They will be gone until Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. Going to be a nice little "mini vacation" for Mom! LOL I will miss him like crazy like I do every year they go up to visit family but I know he will be up there with Uncle Perry (one of his FAVORITE uncles) out on the boat and in the pool, and just enjoying every minute. He looks forward to summer break ALL school year long. Just glad it's something his Grandma Lena has kept up since Papaw passed away.
His behavior is getting A LOT better! I think we FINALLY got the dosage of his meds figured out. At least until he outgrows these levels and has to be increased again. He's so much more loving and calm. He loves hugging and kissing right now, and I love every minute of it. He's going to be 12 on the 30th of this month and I just know the loving, caring, hugging, kissing little boy that I have now is not going to be that way forever. I keep telling him he's going to outgrow it and he says he's not. Oh yeah, he STILL tries to sit in my lap and he's nearly 100 lbs!!! He's not much shorter than my Mom, and he's catching up to me pretty quick! Anyone have any boys clothes they want to Donate? LMAO! I can't keep up with this child!
Little Miss LexieBug is at her Dads. Haven't seen her in about 1 1/2 weeks and it just absolutely tears my heart out. I should be the one with her EVERY DAY! NOT her Step-Mom! How fair is this? Just because he is married and owns his house he's a better parent than I am? He thinks MY daughter is better off with ANOTHER woman raising her? Yeah I still get to see her but he does NOT involve me in her life. I have her schools web page and I check it frequently when it's the school year so I can make sure I go to everything that I should be going to! She keeps telling me she wants to come back and live with me. I just have to tell her that's not possible right now. I wish I had the money to afford a lawyer to fight for her! He has money and knows that I do not. He uses it against me all the time! Ok well enough on that subject for one night. Even though I don't get to see Lexie as much as I would like I still get to talk to her.
I started seeing a therapist today. 1st visit -- can't really say how it's going to go yet. We did get into a few things. She didn't have any open appoitments until August but she got me in @ 5 pm next week! LOL I'm glad I started going. Maybe with the right meds, and therapy, I can FINALLY come out of this depression I've been in. I've been depressed for as long as I can remember, and I'm tired of it. I'm ready to be happy with myself, and everything around me. I'm tired of being so miserable for NO reason! Things will get better. I have faith in myself. I have a few things I'm working on to get myself out of this funk I'm in. Waiting on a package from Ivy Tech State College. I want to go back to school for nursing. I know it's going to be hard, but I have put myself through school once, and by God, I'm going to do it again! If I can do it with 2 toddlers, then I can do it with a 6th and 4th grader!
Well that's my update for now. Will try to write more later!
Hope all is well with everyone else :)

Boring Day
Well I guess I forgot to tell you guys what did happen. The front tire was not connected to the car anymore. A few of my guy friends say it sounds like the ball joint broke. Boogie is down in Kentucky until tomorrow so he hasn't had a chance to look at it.
Been very sore today. I called my Orthopedic Surgeon this afternoon ( I slept until around noon). The nurse told me my Dr. is out until Monday. Figures huh? She told me if I start to hurt worse to go to the ER and if it's still hurting Monday to give them a call and they will get me in.
Today was a pretty good day -- Tommy wise. There wasn't anyone else here (kids) for him to fight with. I also think he's a little sore from last nights accident too. He got in the pool a few times, drew some pretty cool drawings. I need to get my scanner working so I can show you what he's doing. I think he's finally adjusting to the new meds as well.
My mom came and brought us some stuff we needed (milk, sugar, chips, cookies, cigarettes LOL) since apparently I have no car and I really don't feel like driving anytime soon.
Well this is just a short update. Think I'm going to head to bed a little earlier than usual tonight. I'm pretty worn out. Even tho we stayed at home I cleaned the house, made dinner (BBQ Chicken, Mashed potatoes, Corn and Biscuits), then cleaned up again! LOL Then Tommy wanted Bean Dip for a snack so I made some of that and cleaned up yet again!
Hope everyone is well tonight.

What a Day!
Today started off pretty uneventful. I didn't work today because Tommy just had a med change and his mood swings have been pretty bad. Anyways around 4:30 we left the house, with Tommy, Alyssa and Shannon. (my best friend & roommates nieces) We took them to McDonalds for dinner and then went to the Nursing Home to visit Anna's Dad. On the way back from the nursing home I thought I had hit a pothole. (at least that's what it felt like) I lost control of the car. We were on top of a bridge going over some train tracks. We swerved to the right into the concrete wall. The speed limit is 55 mph and that's about what I was doing. I hit the wall and the front of the car actually came up OFF the ground. Anna and I thought we were going to go over! Thank God we didn't. It bounced and came to a stop 20-30 feet from where I hit the wall. Thankfully everyone is okay.
I'm calling my dr about my arm in the morning. I had surgery on it May 15th. My Ulna bone didn't stop growing when I did. I wrecked a dirtbike October 14th and ended up having surgery to remove part of my Ulna bone. Went to the Dr. last week and the bone is not healing at all yet. This accident has me scared. I don't want to have to go thru another surgery for them to fix it. When we hit the wall my arm got jammed into the steering wheel.
The girls are sore and upset. Their Mom came to the accident site and picked them up. They just needed to be with their Mommy tonight.
Tommy's okay. He's more worried about me and Anna I think. He's not hurt at all.
Anna and I are pretty sure we have whiplash and my arm is hurting pretty bad.
I did call the Dr's answering service and had them page the Dr. on call! LOL I'm so paranoid about this arm getting more messed up than it already is! He told me if the pain gets too bad to go to the E.R. but if I can wait to just call them first thing in the morning.
Was going to post a blog about Tommy tonight and the problems we are having but I just wanted to let everyone know what happened, and that we are all O.K.!
Hope all is well with everyone else.

Ok well this is my first post on here. I'm Chrissy. I'm 28 years old and the single mom of 2.
Tommy is 11 (12 on July 30th) and going into the 6th grade. He's a bit of a handful but I wouldn't trade him for the world. As of right now he has been diagnosed with ADHD/ODD, Severe Sleep Apnea, Aggression Problems and Asthma. We just recently switched doctors/therapists and I'm going to start seeing a therapist myself. Yeah I know some of you have done the math, and yes, I was 16 when I had my son. I did graduate from High School with alot of help from both my parents and Tommy's grandparents. Anyways, back to Tommy! I had a meeting with Tommy's new therapist last Saturday and I really like him! I really hope he is able to help me. I am not ready to give up on my 11 yr old son! I have had a few therapists tell me there is nothing more they can do for my son, but I DO NOT believe it! He is 11 years old! He is just a child! Give the kid a chance ya know! Ok well as you can tell this is a very sore subject for me and I'm hoping with the combination of his therapy, my therapy and therapy including Alexis it will really help.
Alexis is 9 years old (thinks she's 25!!) and going into the 4th Grade! She is my baby girl. Right now she is living with her Dad. He took me to court and got custody of her and I really think the way he did it was pure EVIL and wrong! That's for another day though. I hate not having her here with me all the time. She is PURE Drama Queen! My mom says she gets it honestly tho! LOL
I have 2 sisters. Jessica is 25 and live in Indianpolis and I miss her like crazy! I just got a car and so far I do NOT like it! LOL There is no way I'm going to trust this P.O.S. to get me all the way to Indy and not leave me stranded on the side of I-65 or I-465! Either way, I don't want that to happen! Jessica is dating Sean. He treats her great and I'm so happy for her! She has a son, Roy, who is 7 yrs old and is complete 100% OBSESSED with Football.
Morgan is 18. She just graduated from High School, works for the Child Support Prosecutor in our County. (she also just got promoted!) She is getting married August 23rd, 2008 to her best friend, Braden. We all call him Boogie! :) He's the closest thing I have ever had to a brother and he's probably sorry he's marrying into this crazy family! I call him about every other day with another car problem! LOL I am so proud of my baby sister! I really wish I could afford a dress so I could be in her wedding. Alot of times I feel like I don't know Morgan. I am not happy with this at all and I really hope soon we can become close again.
As you can tell I have a few things I'm working on. Plus there is alot more I didn't even put in this post! LOL I'm just giving u a little insight of my life! I know a few of you have known me for awhile (either in real life, or online) and the last few years of my life have not been the easiest. I know I haven't been the best person in the world, that I have done some things that I am not proud of, but I have finally admitted that I've been depressed, and I am seeing someone for it now. Since being put on medication I feel alot better somedays but then there are other days that I just don't feel like getting out of bed. That I feel like the only thing I ever do everday is disappoint someone, but I try to stay positive.
Ok well I didn't mean for my first blog to be this long!
I hope everyone is happy and healthy!
