New Years Resolutions

This year went by pretty fast I must say. It was full of so much happiness. I've rekindled friendships and am still friends with my best friend, who I am so thankful for. She is always there for me and knows me so well. Of course i'm thankful for my two boys. I love them so much.

Then there's Mike, we've been together for four years and I love him with all of my heart. Just recently he has decided to join the army. Which I am hurt about, but it's all for the best.

Now on to my resolutions.
1. Lose weight.
This is something that is everyone's resolution i'm sure, but it's time I lose all the baby weight. I am about 40 or 50 pounds more than i was before I was pregnant with Jered. So I have quite a ways to go. I will be trying to complete the Bikini Body Mommy 90 Day Challenge.

2. Potty train Jered.
I know this is pretty random but I would like him potty trained by his second birthday.

3. Start eating clean.I guess this should go with number one but this is a big thing for me. I eat so horrible. I know i won't be able to eat completely clean right off the bat, but hopefully over time i will. And I also hope my family will start eating clean right along with me.

4. Be a more active blogger. I don't blog as often as I would like. This year I am going to try and blog at least once a week. I plan on having a "Mani Monday" every Monday, since I paint my nails so much I might do two or three different ones in one post or spread them out throughout the week.

That's all I have for now. I didn't want too many cause I eoyld just give up on them.

So stay tuned for more posts from me in the near future.

In The Hospital

So on Wednesday my youngest son, Austin, had a seizure. We took him to the E.R. And they said it was a Febrile seizure. Which the doctor said is a seizure caused by a fever getting too high too fast. After all that everything was fine so they discharged him.

A couple of days later Mike and I felt like we were getting sick so my mom took Austin for the night. We were in bed, watching tv, ready to go to sleep, when my mom called and said Austin was having another seizure. So we went to the E.R. again. This time they admitted Austin into the PICU. This all happened last night.

Earlier today they did an MRI. Which went well and we should have the results today. He also had an EEG done. Which also went well but as Austin was getting hooked up he was screaming. We should get the results of the EEG tomorrow at the latest.

My poor baby has red spots all over from the EEG... I still can't believe that this happened to him..he's only four months old:( Hopefully he'll either grow out of the seizures (Like his father, Mike, who had them as a baby), or that this is something we will be able to control... I'm hoping we aren't here much longer. The nurses are all so wonderful. Austin also got a stocking filled with goodies which was so nice.

This has been a very stressful week...until next time...

November

So its finally November. I turned 21 on the 16th:) Anyway, haha. I feel so bad that I haven't been posting. I've been so busy with Jered and Austin.

Jered's a handful on his own. He's such a picky eater and he's starting to climb on everything. The other day he climbed on top of his crib to the top of the dresser where we keep our tv...Gave me a heart attack.

Austin has gotten so big. It's hard to believe he was in preemie clothes when he was born. He's been "talking" a lot lately and he sounds like a squeaky toy. Ima so cute.

Now for some pictures. This is what Jered looked like after he ate a Kit Kat. This was before Halloween. I spaced on taking pictures ON Halloween. So I will have a couple more posts today. So look out for those!

Until next time..

October.

I'm so glad is October. Its almost Mike's birthday! And mine is next month. I'll be 21! I doubt I'm going to go out and drink. I'd rather go out to eat with all three of my boys:) Maybe go to the casino haha.

In other news. Jered had his first dentist appointment yesterday. He does not like people poking around in his mouth. But the dentist said his teeth look fine. He got a cars toothbrush and wouldn't stop brushing his teeth. They also give kids toys after their appointments, so he got a pack of three toy cars. Then Mike got an appointment right after Jered's so we waited for him and he has to get a couple of teeth pulled. And he got a rechargable eclectic toothbrush for being a new patient. Pretty cool!

Then later last night we went to Denny's. Jered enjoyed it and didn't let go of those crayons the whole time we were there and I'm the ride home.

That's all I have for this post. Until next time!

One Year Old!

So on May 26th my amazing son turned one! It seriously feels like just yesterday we were at the hospital. Time sure flies!

Jered's birthday party was the day before his actual birthday. I was so excited and hoped nothing went wrong...but of course something did. When Mike went to pick up the cake he called me and said that they spelled Jered wrong. I understand that his name isn't spelled a normal way but I wrote down his name. Like really?! It related ticked me off. Then once we got to the park we noticed that there was a hair on the cake..a hair! Ugh. Anyways. We called and complained and will get a refund.

Everything else went pretty smoothly. We had a volleyball net set up, there was a playground right next to us and tennis courts and basketball courts. I didn't take as many pictures as I wanted. I didn't think I would be so busy. We served subs with potato salads, and chips. Then we also had a cotton candy machine and snow cone machine thanks to my grandma. We got a plain white cake with baseball decorations for everyone. For Jered I made him a baseball cake. He wouldn't touch the cake at first. Until we gave him a fork. He didn't have much but it's okay:) Next came the presents. I didn't get pictures of everything he got. The drum set he plays and it's so cute! Mike and I got him crayons, a coloring book, a dry erase board, dry erase crayons, and a baseball mit with a baseball and a football.

It was a very stressful week leading up to the party but it was all worth it:)
