Do Do Dooo Lookin' out my backdoor...


Yes that's my back yard...

OK so I pretty much hate winter.... Don't get me wrong, the snow is pretty... and it's nice to have it on the ground for Christmas... but I hate being cold! I hate walking through slushy parking lots, I hate having to bundle up, I hate having my feet be cold and wet... it SUCKS! I'm a tank top and jeans, bare foot kind of girl... so winter is just really annoying. I still wear tank tops, pretty much all year round, but of course when I go out I have to throw on a hoodie or a stupid jacket. Oh and socks! I hate to wear socks.... If I lived in Florida... Oh I would love that! I would be barefoot or have flip flops on all the time! OK done with my "I hate Winter" rant... :D
Now on to happy stuff!!


I can't believe Christmas will be here in just 2 days!!! It came so quick! We are going up to the lake for Christmas Eve and I can't wait!! I can't wait to put out cookies and milk for Santa and some carrots for the Reindeer! I can't wait for Caidy to wake up on Christmas morning to find out that Santa put a stocking full of goodies on her bed! I can't wait to watch her and Kaylee (my niece) tear into their gifts!!! This is going to be such an awesome Christmas!!

Dreams...

I've been wanting to write down certain or weird dreams I have for a while, but I always forget and 1 I have shitty handwriting and B I hate to actually write things... lol Anyway sometimes I remember a few dreams from one night... Like little mini movies.
I have A LOT of very strange, funny, random dreams... SO here's what happened in dreamland last night!

First one...
My husband got up for work and then kept coming back into the room to tell/show me things. *** He works Tuesday- Saturday and gets up at 5am except for Tuesdays and Thursdays when he gets up at 4am** So he keeps coming in and telling me that he's doing dishes, or he's doing something on the computer.... Then I hear a LOUD noise.. I'm like what in the fuck is he doing out there now?! He comes in and tells me that he's ripping out the baseboards... So I said WTF?! Don't you have to go to work?? He tells me that he still has a few minutes before he has to leave. I sit up and say WHY are you doing this now?? I have kids coming in here at 7:30 and the baseboards are all ripped off the walls and there's shit everywhere! Then he just says "Ooh! I need to go to work now!" Then he leaves....
That dream ends.... lol

Next dream...
I'm walking around in my back yard... but it's not my back yard. I'm holding Gavin... then all of a sudden something starts moving in a bush near me. I step back a little and watch. Out pops a little yellow duck! *** For those of you that don't know I LOVE ducks!*** So it waddles up to us and I back away a little just because I don't know how it's going to act.... Then IT GROWLS at me!! So I'm like shhhiiit! What kind of creepy ass duck is this?! Just as I'm about to turn around and get away from it, it jumps up, lands on my chest and knocks me down. I tried to get up but I couldn't... So I'm laying there, holding Gavin and there's this little duck sitting on my chest... Then it just looks at me and I swear it looked like it smiled, then it hops off and happily quacks around in the yard. So I'm like ooookkkk... and I get up and slowly back way. It follows me and ends up coming into my house. Geoff looks at it and says "You should probably put some papers down in case he has to crap or something." *** This would not be a normal response from him... He would of been like WTF? We're not keeping a duck! LOL** So the duck moves in and is like my little shadow... It follows me all around and never lets me out of it's sight! Even in the shower! (Can you imagine taking a shower with a friggin duck?! LOL) So that was the end of that one....

The last dream I remember was just a quick little thing about me walking down to the store with my dad**** My moms house has a store like a 5 minute walk from the house, it has a little garage next to it where they fix cars*** When we get to the store my dad tells me to go ahead and wait at the store. So I go, and I see in the reflection in the door at the store, that he's talking to a few guys at the garage and he hands them some money and they hand him little rolled up pieces of paper..... So then we go into the store buy some shit and walk out. We're walking away and he says "What are you wearing? You smell like flowers..." I look at him and just say "Yea, well you smell like pot!" Then people start laughing... o_O like a laugh track on a TV show. My dad puts his arm around my shoulder, laughs a little and says "Yea..." Then the dream like fades out...

So... Theres a few of my weird ass dreams....

The Christmas Spirit...

You know that warm fuzzy feeling you get around Christmas. All happy and giddy... that "Magical" feeling?... Well I lost that a few years ago... I don't know why, I wasn't depressed or anything, but every year when Christmas rolled around that feeling just wasn't there. Even when we had Caidy's first Christmas... I thought for sure I'd get the warm fuzzy's that year... Nope, nothing.... Not that I turned into a grump or anything, I just didn't feel any different than any other time of the year.


This year though, I don't know if it's the new house, or Caidy being old enough to understand Santa, or the new lil man... Maybe it's all of it together, but I am SO excited about it this year! Putting up the decorations, I felt like a kid! I got so excited when I took out the cookie plate and cup for Santa. We'll actually be able to put cookies out for Santa this year! I mean I guess we could of last year, but Caidy was still pretty young and it wouldn't of really meant anything. I can't wait to wake up Christmas morning and watch Caidy open her presents... I just think it will be different this year because she's older and will be excited for Santa! I'm going to leave her stocking on her bed after she falls asleep on Christmas eve... I wonder if she'll notice it.
***aww Gavin just spit up on me... How cute...LOL. Ha ha And now Caidy just brought me a delicious cup of "cookie tea" OMG I love them so much.... ***
OK time to make dinner! My little Buglet of course will be at my side standing on her potty "helping" I really should get her a little step stool....

Making Cookies!

Me and the Buglet made some cookies last week! She had so much fun! Here are the steps to make some Yummilicious cookies!


First get all of your ingredients together:
Then mix all of the dry stuff together...

Then you put the brown sugar, and the white sugar and the butter in another bowl...
Then you should taste the sugar to make sure it's yummy!
Then if it's yummy enough, mix it!
Then you add the eggs...
Now add the flour and stuff to the sugar and stuff!

Yum! Chocolate Chips!!!!



Then you put them on a cookie sheet...
Time to put them in the oven!

Are they done yet?!?!

Yay!!!! They're done!
Mmmm...

Gavins Birth Story

You know it just occurred to me this morning that I don't think I've typed this out anywhere yet. (Except on my message board... I love you girls!) Anywhoo...

Thursday July 10th 2008, I started having contractions at about 8am. After like an hour of having about them 5 minutes apart, I e-mailed the twins moms, and told her that I might be calling her to come get them. About 9:30ish I called my Dr and told him what was going on, and he wanted to come in so he could check me. So I called the twins mom (I didn't have "Grabby" that day.) and told her she needed to come. Then I called Geoff and told him that I was going to see the Dr.

I get to the office, Dr. W checks me and I'm only 1cm dilated. So he suggests I go home, and try to labor there... which I gladly agreed with!

So back at home... Me Caidy my sister Steph and her daughter Kaylee (3 months younger than Caidy) sit around and watch Lifetime movies. The contractions are still coming about 5 minuets apart, but are getting VERY uncomfortable now. So around 4pm I tell Steph that I'm going to try to lay in bed for a bit. Steph and Kaylee go back next door, and just as I'm about to go next door my friend Christina (one of my message board ladies <3) calls and asks "Is there a baby falling out of your vagina yet?!" I tell her no and we talk for another few minutes and then hang up. Just before she called (like as the phone was ringing) I had another contraction.. while talking to her I had another, then I went upstairs and went into the bathroom to pee.. had another one. They're coming about 3 minutes apart now. I call my Dr and they say go to the ER. So I called Steph and told her to come back and bring me in. She was like "What?? You just told me you were going to lie down.." (it had only been about 10 minutes since she left... I guess getting my fat ass up off the couch and walking up the stairs got things moving along! LOL) So she said she'd be right over, and I called Geoff and said you need to get home like now. He tells me he's on his way!

**SIDE NOTE!** My husband is a CDL truck driver, he drives the flat bed for Lowes. **

So Me, Steph and Caidy get into the car and Steph starts driving like a crazy person to the hospital. I tell her to chill out, I'm not going to have the baby in the car. She still looks panicked, but says OK and slows down. We get to the ER and I get a wheel chair, and my Bug sits in my lap. We talk to the ER nurse and then start to head upstairs. After Steph slammed the wheelchair into a few walls the nurse walking us up asks if she could take over. We finally get into the elevator and get to the maternity floor. ( the nurse had let us into the elevator and left) So Steph slams me into the doorway of the elevator, then we get out and go to the nurses station and they put me right into a room. It's just before 5pm by now. Steph and Caidy hang out for a bit, then Steph takes Caidy to the play area. Geoff walks in a few minutes later and tells me that he drove his truck right to the hospital!

So I'm all hooked up to the machine so they can monitor Gavin's HB, and stuff... Then Geoff asks me if I want to sit in the jacuzzi tub and I say yes. So I get in the tub and hang out there for a bit, and Geoff sits near the tub. All of a sudden Gavin decides to do a flip IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONTRACTION! Man that felt weird! My whole belly moved! After a few more minutes I get out of the tub and back into the bed. Dr. W comes in and checks me and I'm 9cm.. He decides to break my water and about 2 minutes after that I tell them I need to start pushing. The nurse tells me to wait and I'm like WHAT?!?! I couldn't help it and I started pushing anyway. The nurse puts her hand on my whoo-ha (his little head is already coming out) and tells me to breath and stop pushing, the Dr was still getting ready. I'm thinking What the fuck?!? Wait!?! Get over here and get this kid out! So after what seemed like 45 minutes of watching Dr. W put his gloves on and whatever the hell else he was doing (it was probably only like 2 minutes. lol) he comes back over and I push maybe 3 times and out he comes! Gavin was born at 5:52pm 7lbs 11oz! I pushed for a total of 6 minutes! Also just like with Caidy I had no pain meds of any kind!

About 5 minutes after he was born my sister came back in with Caidy, they had gone to the Cafeteria so she could get Caidy some supper. They walked in and Steph was like Holy Crap that was fast!! :D

Caidy has milk on her shirt... lol

My First Blog

Hi! Welcome to my Blog... Thanks for stopping by! ;-)

My name is Kris and I'm 27 years old, I live with my wonderful husband Geoff, and two adorable children Caidy and Gavin. Caidy is 2 (She'll be 3 in March) and Gavin just turned 4 months old. I'll most likely refer to them as Bug, or Buglet and Little Man.

We just bought our first home! It was so much fun painting, and putting in new carpets and just making it all our own.

I'm a work at home Mommy, I have a small in home daycare with three children. Twin 3 year olds (a boy and girl) and a 2 year old girl. It can be pretty crazy here sometimes!

In this blog I will not censor myself, and I might even share a little TMI sometimes... SO if you don't like swearing and stories about poop and boogers (or whatever else) , then don't read anymore! ;-) This Blog will be my place to vent, blab on endlessly about whatever and talk about important things going on in my life! (You know, kind of like every other Blog out there! lol)
