The infamous return...

Bri returned from her trip to California on Monday morning at 3am. She had to drive 24 hours to get home (well, her Dad and Grandfather did). So, at 3 am ( I was sleeping on the couch waiting for the doorbell), my spunky little 8 year old came in the door. Hi, Mom, I want to show you something.
Okay, she pulled out some funny pictures of her and her Dad's dog briscuit.
I put one of the frames on my dresser. She asked my why I would want to put up a picture of her father's dog. I said, the picture was cute of her and the dog reminds me of her dad. He's a bull dog.
Then, she thought about it and said, "That's not very nice, Mom." And, I told her the theory of how dogs look like their owners...
she seemed to buy it, but the picture cracks me up!

Anyways, after showing me the picture, she pointed out these things that itched on her stomach... I said, Bri, I think you have chicken pox.
Oh, she said... well I thought they were kind of weird.

Anyways, yes, I sent her to school the next morning because she was able to conceal the pox and she has had the chicken pox vaccine.
I probably shouldn't have sent her but she had no fever and didn't feel sick.
So, the next day I sent her dad a message that Bri had chicken pox.
He said, "Oh yeah, I meant to tell you about those."

Anyways, she also had a cut on her foot from her Dad's dog briscuit, and she could barely walk on it.
I said, Bri, how come all this stuff happens when you go away and you never get hurt when I'm around to take care of it.
She said, "I don't know".

Atleast she made it home and she seemed to have a great time!

Last night we went shopping at Justice for girls. Bri had a gift card from her birthday party, so we bought a new dress and some matching sandals. Then, there was a purse she just had to have! She said, "Mom, I kept thinking about that purse when I was in the dressing room." I said, then that definately means you need to buy it!
So, she used her gift card and money she had earned from chores to purchase her new items.
She wore her dress to school today but I made her wear a sweater so the pox on her arms wouldn't infect anyone :)

That's all for now

27 Weeks Pregnancy Update

27 weeks today. Is this the third trimester or not?!? Some websites say it is, some says 28 is. So, I'm not too sure. Weight Gain:  33.3 lbs total. Only half a pound of away from what I gained with Jamyson and I still have 13 weeks left (waaaahhhh.....) I feel huge. I am huge! It's harder to walk and my feet hurt now, lol. Exercise:  I'm still walking but I cut back last week and only did 14.7 miles. I broke the 200 miles for the year for the "run the year 2017"! However, the more I walk, the more I eat and the more weight I gain (eek)! Cravings/Diet:  I've been craving lemon lime gatorade. Weird right?! It's delicious. I've also been getting reece's blasts from Sonic. They are so good! I threw in a cooke dough blizzard from dairy queen. That was delicious and not helping with my weight gain. Morning Sickness: Still no morning sickness but I'm still taking 2 diclegis every night. Sleep:  Didn't nap as much last week. Just didn...

Our Experience with Covid 19

I'm writing to share our experience with Covid-19. With the reopening of the lockdown, many new cases are flooding the world. My husband is the Regional Sales Manager at Century 21 Judge Fite in Rockwall. He has been in real estate for the past seven years. He is an amazing realtor and even better manager. I am very proud of him and I stand behind him no matter what. Saturday July 5th is started feeling ill after a work out. He had recently joined Legends Fit in Rockwall and started a program where he had to lose 25lbs or 6.9% body fat in 6 weeks and he would get a free membership for the year. After 3 weeks and a very strict diet and workout, he had lost close to 20 lbs and 5.3% body fat. He started running a fever Saturday afternoon and felt very fatigued. No real respiratory symptoms and his pulse ox never dropped below 98 percent. His heart rate was double his resting heart rate. He tested on Monday morning and received word Tuesday around 5:30pm that he was pos...

Ashton's Birth Story-VBAC

I started this last pregnancy journey with the goal of finishing my second VBAC. Here's the story (So that I never forget any of my children's birth, I have documented each one's stories)... Around 4pm on Thursday August 1, 2019, I went into the hospital. I was having irregular contractions, dilated to 2 cm and 50% effaced. I was 39 weeks and 3 days pregnant.  Here is a photo: I am almost 6 feet tall and had gained nearly 50 lbs. Most of which I gained in the first and second trimester. I continued to workout this whole pregnancy in hopes that my body would bounce back quicker. Time will tell. So, my doctor came in around 5:30pm and said he was going to do the foley cervical dilation balloon again since that worked with Elizabeth. So, they inserted the foley balloon which is extremely painful because I have a tilted cervix which apparently hides behind my spine. He tried to do it with a tool and ended up having to do it manually with his hands.  Then, I ...
