The Bottle Snatcher

And so it begins. I told myself this summer I was gonna get Chantelle off of bottles all together. So far it has had its ups and downs. I stared yesterday when I went to put her down for her nap. She was not a happy little girl. She cried for about 1 hour tells she finally fell asleep with a straw cup instead of a bottle. She only slept for about an hour. She seemed to be happy for the rest of the day as far as Cory told me. Anyway, Then around 10ish when it was time to put her to bed she did well. She laid down with her cup and just played in the crib for about 1 hour until she went to bed. She slept through the night and then at 8am today she woke up. I changed her gave her more milk in a cup and she freaked out. She threw the cup out of her crib and stated throwing a big fit. I said to her in a nice calm voice that I could not do anything for her and then I gave her back her cup. Then I told her I was sorry. She usually sleeps tell about 10 and if she wakes up earlier than that in a bad mood I do not get her out of bed. She didn’t cry for very long and now she is quit. Not sure she is asleep but I think she is getting the idea that she cannot have bottles anymore. I am gonna pack them all up in a box today and hide them away. I told Cory that he may not give her a bottle at all. So I must hide them from him as well. He is a push over. I am very motivated to do this. First we get rid of the bottles and then we get her a bed. One step at a time. Its gonna be a long and bumpy road but in the end it will be okay. I am one hundred % sure that she will live through this and so will I. I am determined to not have a child on bottles at all next time. Wish me luck everyone.

Where Have I Been…Such a Slacker.

Okay, so I know what you’re thinking…why does this woman have a blog at all? I’ve been slacking like crazy with writing every day…and every month for that matter. Well I thought it might be a good idea to start writing in my blog again. That’s what it’s there for right. Well first things first I guess.

Cory is working for the Army still and making good money, He still however bitches about how freakin board he is and how much he hates his job. It pays well so he can’t quit. He just need to get off his ass and find something to do to keep him from being on his ass all day…The only thing he every does is play World of Fag craft. He keeps bitching about his wait and how he is lazy and just sits on his ass all day at work. What doesn’t make sense to me is that he bitches about that, and then he comes one and just sits on his ass someone staring at the freaking computer for the rest of the day. Granted I am not here half the time when he is playing, but come on…Stop bitching about your weight. Get off your butt and work out rather than sit on it and watch your characters run around. That’s why he is gaining weight anyway. Whatever, I freakin hate that danm game and I wish he would just get off the computer and spend some time with Chantelle wail she still can. Pretty soon he is gonna turn around and realized that he missed a whole hell of a lot of her life. I hate bitching about him playing that game but hey, that’s all he ever freakin does for hell sake. Why can’t he just give it up already? For shit…he sits and complains about the game and says he hates it and wants to stop playing it, but does he…no. Anyway enough about my boring husband.

Chantelle is good; she is becoming more and more like a 2 year old. Never listens and gets into everything. If she doesn’t get what she wants to trough’s a fit. She is still cute even though she is a brat sometimes. She will grow out of the brat thing…maybe, some day. Anyway, still doesn’t say as many worlds as I would like her to. I don’t know, maybe that’s my fault. I bet if I would have read to her more when she was a baby and more not then she might use more worlds. I can’t for the life of me get her to say please. Yay, that’s the one word I told myself she would know and use all the time, but she doesn’t. I don’t know maybe someday. Anyway, she is getting bigger every day and more beautiful. She gets that form her dad. Maybe a little form me but who knows. She got her first hair cute last month. Not much of a different but her bangs aren’t in her face anymore. Anyway, she has her good and bad moments. What child doesn’t?

I am okay, Just living life, still not working. I’m still going to school and it seems to be getting harder every term. I’m sure that is how it is suppose to be. Anyway, I hope that I will pass this term. I guess all I need is a little more confidence. If you can’t tell all ready I am in a bad mood at the moment. I came home and Cory was and is in a bitchy mood and that put me in one. Now he is looking at me trying to suck up, For real, we all know what he really wants. Anyway, School is good…just hard. Still going strong though. I am in the middle of my 3rd term. 3 more terms to go and then I am done. Yay, I really hate that I have school all summer long with no brakes. Cory is going to be board all summer and I am the one who gets to hear him bitch about it all year. Anyway, my 5 year reunion is coming up, Weird, I am almost 24. I am getting older..It happens to everyone. I guess I’m not too old.

Props on karilynn and Vicki for doing so freakin good on the weight loss program. You girls kick ass. Keep going strong.

The New Car

So I let Cory go car shopping without me yesterday and let me tell you how it turned out. First of all Before he went we looks on the website to decide which cars he should look at when he went to the dealer ship.I had him look at a Mazda 3 2006 witch we both really liked from the picture. The only problem was that it didn't have power windows or locks. She I said know. Then he looked at a few other cars that we looked at. He was about to come home with a really nice one that we also both liked. Then right before he had decided on the car, A nice black Mazda 2006 pulled up out of no where. Now i didn't look at this car before. It was not on the website. So The fact that he picked a totally different car then what we were looking at kinda pissed me off. Lets just say that the fact that i wasn't there made the situation not good. So he got the car. Its nice but now we are paying off that and a little from our old car. That's the part that makes me mad. He took the deal when they were only going to pay 9,000 of what was left of the other car. Let me tell you. If I was there that would not of happened. We wouldn't of taken deal and we would of kept the Nissan. Now that fact that is is a Mazda and not a Nissan sucks...Our insurance went up b/c Its not a Nissan. AHHH....Cory is stressing about money now and I am okay but still kinda mad. Now I did not tell him this....so don't go telling on me. Anyway, the car is nice but we owe 22,000 on it....for shit sake. Our payment went up to 385..its is pretty much what we were paying before we refinanced the Nissan with our bank. The insurance is 185 now and that is what we were paying with our old car that Cory had when we first got marred. With everything going up and all the bills we will have 650 left over in the bank every month. That's not that bad..but still Cory stresses. Anyway, the new car is smaller then the Nissan even though Cory doesn't think so. Its a nice car and has low mileage...Whatever makes Cory feel more safe I guess. I guess next time I will go with him....AHHHH I wonder if we could trade it in for a Nissan...You know, go back and say oh, we don't want this car now...can we get another one. I might talk to Cory about it. I'll post pictues of it tomorrow....

Anyway, So I have my anatomy final today. last night I was freaking the hell out... But I'm better today. I have been studying a lot sense that night, and i almost pulled an all nighter to study...But i decided to go to bed. Well wish me luck...I hope I pass.

Busy woman

No I have not fallen off the face of the earth. I have been busy getting ready for Christmas and also studding for my finals for school. I’m almost done with all of them. I have one today for my massage class. I’m not too worried about that one. But tomorrow is a different story. I have my Anatomy final and I am stressing, man am I stressing. I have tried to study, over and over again. It’s not that easy when the little one wants me all the time. She is sick right now and when she is sick she is clingy. You all moms out there….you know how it goes. Anyway, it’s snowing again. What a surprise there. School is good other then the fact that I hate Anatomy. We are done with school on Wednesday and we don’t go back tell the 21 of January. Fun stuff. Now I’m going to be board all day.

Chantelle is great, other than the fact that she has a cold and is still not walking. I don’t know if it’s just me, but she seems a little slow to me. When do they start understanding what I am talking about? I want her to be to the stage where I don’t have to fight her to get dressed…to the stage where she can help me get her dressed…My niece is to that stage and she is only 15 months old. I have friends who have kids younger than mine that are already walking and sleeping in a real bed. Help me out here guys. I need my kid to be just a little faster. I’m not sure if it’s the way I am razing her or if she just needs time. But I want her to grow faster. I want her to start walking…and I really want her to stop fighting me when I try to get her dressed. Anyway, she finally figured out how to get in the cabinets…so now I have to go buy lucks for them. Oh yeah, I tried to find a lock for the toilet but freaking Wal-mart didn’t have them. Anyway, if anyone out there has some advice for me...by all means send it my way.
I guess that’s all for now. I really need to start studding before Chantelle wakes up. I’ll try to keep you all posted on her progression and I’ll let ya all know if I passed my anatomy final. Bye for now.

Happy Holidays

Twilight sucks

I cannot even begin to tell you how bad the movie was. It was crap and I am so mad about it. Everyone had high expectations for this movie and they shouldn’t have. It was the worst movie I have ever seen. Maybe that’s just b/c I have read the books. But I was so disappointed I wish to God that is was all a dream b/c there is no way that betrays Twilight at all. It shouldn’t even get a star in my book. I love Stephanie Meyer but why woman would you let them destroy the move and books like that. I think they should re make it with a different Cast and a different Director. Can Harry Potter please come out so I can was away this memories of a love story in a book that was so ripped apart by the movies. I am so disappointed and so sad that I let myself get so excited about the movie. I had high hopes for the movie but my hopes were shred apart at the begging of the movie. And it only got worse from there. Why Oh Why Stephanie. Why would you let them release that? Oh Wake me up and tell me this is a dream.

Waking up Confused

Okay so every now and then I wake up in the middle of the night all confused I get out of bed and look around like I am looking for someone. Its kinda weird b/c Everyone who should be home is home. Its like I am looking for a ghost or something. Someone who isn't there. Someone who is missing. "Is someone telling me something?" That question always seems to come up when I wake up in the morning. Its like We are missing a part of our family or something. Maybe someone is missing. Maybe We are not done having baby's or something. I don't know, but its kinda weird. Anyway, Waking up during the middle of the night is kinda getting old. Oh well, what can yeah do. What do you guys think about it. Is God telling me that my family is not complete? Blah..to much thinking this early in the morning.

So yeah..Is 8:30 and I am so tired. I really should get out of bed and get ready for the day. I was thinking about taking a walk..maybe getting a hair cut. Blah...So tired and now Chantelle is waking up. Guess I wont be going back to bed. It looks like its going to be a nice day.

Oh my heck...I am so excited about going to Twilight on Thursday and so Excited to go to Vegas...Yay, I want it to be Thursday already. Anyway, I think maybe its time to get out of bed and shower. I guess that's all for now. I can't think of anything to write and I don't want to write on about nothing. Bye...

Thanksgiving in Vegas and NKOTB

Okay so instead of going to my moms for Thanksgiving this year, Cory and I decided we wanted to go to Vegas with his mom and dad. We have to take Chantelle which limits us from Gambeling..But that's not really a bad thing. So As most of you may know. Phantom of the Opera is playing there and I told Cory that if we are going to Vegas I am dragging him to see that and he has no say in the matter. So we bought the tickets for that today and we Reserved our room at ex Caliber. So Excited to go see Phantom. So I guess we are going to just go to a buffet for thanksgiving with I am totally fine with. I think Chantelle will like all the lights in Vegas. I'm hoping she has fun to. So I will be sure to take my Camera and take lots of pictures of our trip.So

As most of you may know I when to the NKOTB concert with my sisters on Saturday and it was a lot of fun. Karilynn was really funny. Whitney went with us so that means that non of the ladies could flash the boys. That's okay though...its not like any of us would anyway. (Well maybe Kari, she was kinda crazy..lol) Anyway, I got some pictures but not very many b/c my freaking camera died. So here they are. Here is our blast from the past.

NKOTB...I Only got two picutes
