YAY BABIES!!! MY NIECE IS HERE!!!!!

My sweet baby niece was born yesterday (Nov 18th), at 10:18am. I'm SO excited!! i have another niece to love and spoil! :) I cannot wait to go see her precious little face in person. My sister is doing well, and Bella is too. My nephew Leif is a very happy big brother!! OH her name- Isabella Kayann.

Isabella Kayann

 Yes I realize Isabella is like THE most popular name right now, but I know my sister better than anyone on the planet, and I can bet on the fact that she has never EVER looked at a baby name book, site, or the 'most popular' lists....ever. This is a name they picked out because they truly loved it. She doesn't CARE that it's popular, and that's fine with me I guess. LOL well everyone that knows me, knows that I wouldn't use a popular name myself (having one myself is why), but anyone that knows me ALSO knows how well I can shut my damn mouth with my opinions or feelings if you HAPPEN to be related to me, or very special to me. I would NEVER EVER say a bad thing about my sister's, my sister-in-law's, or a good friend's name choices. THAT is off limits IMHO. I keep it to myself, smile, fawn over their names etc. Call that two-faced, or whatever I really don't give a fuck....my friends and family gave me the same courtesy when I announced my children's names too. *shrug* I see no need to hurt anyones feelings over this when they are FAMILY.

Bella and big brother Leif

((Strangers on the Internet ASKING for my opinion...that's a different story! HAHA))
Anyways- Kayann.
My mother's middle name is Kay. My brother-in-law's mother's middle name is Ann. thus- Kayann. Again. i get the sentiments, so i will shut my mouth. :)

Honestly though- just look at her face and tell me you could say ANYTHING about her name accept....OMG she's gorgeous!! :P haha.

Puppy Update!

Lucas will be 5 weeks old this weekend. Zoe will be 4 weeks old this weekend! I cannot wait to see their new pictures that will be posted on Sunday. Visit SweetPeaPups to see my best friend's dogs and her puppies!! She has Yorkies, Pomeranians, and Yorkeranians (a mix of the Yorkie and Pom) for sale. Her pups are well cared for and loved so much! i really enjoy looking after them when they make trips out of town. My best friend and her husband are trying to have a baby of their own so they go see fertility specialists out of town frequently and i look after their dogs. They are also very close to their family that live in Oklahoma and they travel to visit them often, so i watch their dogs for them then too! i love it! their dogs are sweet and so friendly. I just cannot wait to bring little Lucas and Zoe home with me!! :) As you can see on her site my puppies are "pending for Jae". lol I'm so excited!!

I hate being sick

It figures i would get sick this weekend. The weekend that Kevin has to work till 11pm. and of course the week that i need to make dozens upon dozens of bake goods for the bake sale the squadron is doing. AND the week that i have a parent/teacher conference with Laney's teacher.

I have to be sick now. That's just fucking awesome.


Sigh, Jaesus

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Halloween was SO awesome! That day was fabulous! Laney and Kyle went to school that morning and Kevin and I started fixing up the yard with our decorations for the night, the lights, the giant grim reaper yard decoration, the tombstones, torches, window zombies, hanging ghosts, etc. so much stuff! i had a blast.

Then I spent that afternoon getting myself ready for it, my makeup and hair and then the kiddos too. We all got dressed up in our costumes and out we headed into the crowded neighborhood full of Buzz Lightyears, Cinderellas, Spidermen, and My Little Ponies.

Of course there were also other pirates, witches, creepy zombies and serial horror flick killers such as Freddie and Jason, and even the occasional dressed up pet dogs...(one a cowboy, one a hotdog, and one a fairy). TONS of kids running around, screaming, laughing, and running from house to house. We had tons of fun walking from house to house and getting Candy. Then we made the long walk back home and passed out our own candy! I cannot WAIT for next year! I love this holiday SO MUCH!!! Next year we're going to be doing the Wizard of Oz theme!! :P I will be Glinda the Good Witch, Laney will be Dorothy of course, Hayden will be the Cowardly Lion, Kyle will be the Scarecrow and Kevin will be either a munchkin or the Tin Man. haha. I might even get a couple of our calmer dogs in on the action, I think perhaps my new puppies can be characters too.

 I would die for a flying monkey costume for dogs! but i haven't found one yet. and of course Lucas (my yorkie) can go as Toto. But we'll see! I also plan to add some moving pieces to our yard decor. Maybe a moving witch or a flying witch or something. I have to do something about the side of the house though. we live right next to this field and have on the other side of our grass a gravel area that separates our yard from the field, and people want to walk UP it thinking it goes to the porch that we are sitting on instead of walking up the driveway. 

 or they walk through my yard (which i hate!)....so i will work out some sort of fencing or taping off, and then lights up the driveway and to my porch walkway to where we are sitting. We'll get it worked out. haha. i might even have signs that say- Candy....THIS WAY ------>. haha. We'll figure it out. Here's to another GREAT Halloween!!!

Baby Shower!!

My sister's baby shower was in October, and we had a great time! She got tons of things for the baby, and we had a nice cake, and the kiddos there played all over the place. This is how my family is...very "family friendly". i know of a lot of showers (some I've been to) where kids and spouses are not invited, it's just "the girls"...i find that ODD! I guess it's weird to me because my family always uses any celebration as an excuse to get together and have fun! :P

Me, My BIL Jeff, My sis Callie, and My Grandmother

So everyone was welcomed to this shower! Mine were like that too. I was assigned the task of writing every gift down in her baby book. Boy there was a ton of stuff, and my poor hand was so tired after it was all said and done. LOL. There was tons of pink of course, and then a few of Jeff's friends (Jeff is my brother-in-law) thought it would be funny to give Jeff and Callie (Callie is my sister) a few "just in case" gifts...ya know just in case the baby turns out to be a boy instead. LOL it was hilarious. They had so many

gifts that we had to load up their car and others to get it all back to their house. I really enjoyed seeing my sissy. The last time she was pregnant i lived in Oklahoma and never got to see her during her pregnancy, i hated that. My sissy has been having some pretty strong braxton-hicks contractions over the last 2 weeks now. Just last night she texted me saying that she was having good contractions every 10mins or so....but they eventually went away. I think she's getting close!! She's due on Nov 21st. (the day after my bff's bday too!) but i think she might go into full blown labor next week/weekend!!!! I cannot wait to see my new little niece! I'm so excited, and I'm hoping for another little redhead! :) We need another little redheaded girl in the family. haha.
