Two Teeny Tiny Babies!!

Skyler called me on Wed morning to see if I could come down and sit with her while having her stress test for the babies... (Lucy's heart rate had dropped so they wanted to keep an eye on her for a couple of more hours.) I told her that I would be right down.... (My mother's intuition told me to take the rest of the day off.) I went down to the hospital and thought I would be there for a couple of hours....Skyler was a little nervous.....We could hear the babies heart beats....Strong and loud.. Skyler told me that Lucy's heart rate went down to 50 but when she got on her side it came back up. After about 1/2 hour the nurse came in to do a test on Lucy. She started the ultra sound and we could see Lucy.. She had her cute little arm resting on her eyes like she was in a deep sleep and just chillin.... The nurse tried for about an half hour to get her to move anything. She put a horn on Sky's stomach and pulled the trigger.. Kash moved but Lucy didn't. She then tried with her hands on Sky's stomach to move her alittle, still no movement.. The nurse then said .."let's move you to labor and delivery and have them watch you for a while... We headed over to labor and delivery when the nurse said..Let me call your doctor and see what he wants to do... After a minute we were told, you are going to have babies today...Get everyone here that needs to be here.....You should have seen Sky's face....She called Braden and I called Thom. Anyway!!! Long Story Short.......and Braden and his dad made it to the hospital in record time....( Braden's dad went 90 miles down the freeway) WE HAVE TWO OF THE CUSTIEST, TINY BABIES IN THE WORLD!!!

I'm know I'm a Slacker!!!!

I was told by my girls and daughter in law that I need to up date my blog....I do have another grand son and he is darling.... I will post pictures of him tomorrow as tonight I get to tend him while Jen goes back to playing with the orchrestra.

He is Nic and Jen's baby Carter Eugene Rudd... He is so cute, but he still sleeps so much.. I hope he is awake when I tend him tonight....

I'm working at the center today... So I don't have my cable for my camera to download pictures...

I watched Courtney's kids last night while she was at work and Shane is out of town... They are so cute and so good... It was a good nights sleep. I was up early this morning and Ethan heard me. I opened the bathroom door and he wasn't quite awake and told him it was still night and to get into bed with mommy...He hurried off to do so.. When I left, all was still quite, so hopefully Courtney got some more sleep....


Just got back from "Our Sister's Trip" It was great fun..... Nice and relaxing.... Next year Hawawii here we come......

Can I tell you that I love my job!!!! I love working from home and picking up extra hours if needed....

Well lunch is over. back to work... I'll post some pictures.....

***********TYLENOL RECALL!!!**********

As most of you know that I take Tylenol pm every night to help with my insomnia.. I have taken it for years and it has done the trick for me.

For the last couple of months, I haven't been feeling very well at all. I have had horrible head aches, almost like a migraine. I don't have much energy and just want to sleep to help my headache go away. Tonight as I was watching the nightly news, I heard about a Tylenol recall.. I got my Tylenol and found the lot number on the side of the bottle and sure enough it had been recalled!!!

They had a number to call to see what you need to do and if you were having side effects. Of course it was an eastern number, so I will call tomorrow.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO CHECK THIS WEBSITE AS THERE ARE MANY OTHER BRANDS THAT ARE BEING RECALLED AS WELL... LET EVERYONE KNOW ABOUT THIS... HERE IS THE WEBSITE..

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

I'm going to be better about keeping my blog updated!!!

We had a great Christmas season with Eddie and Kendall and their darling little girls with us.. It was a great surprise for everyone.... All the kids got along really well and my house was always filled with laughter and talking and playing... The girls loved the snow and we had to go out in it. Kenna touched it and told me that it was cold and wet...
Shay and Kenna were worried that it was snowing on my head.... We saw the movie the "chipmunks". It was so cute when we got settled and Kenna asked me where the popcorn was? I got up and got some for them and it was so much fun to watch them dance with the music and laugh at the movie...
My house is so quite.... I don't know what to do.... This was the best christmas present I could have gotten...We even got to spend time with both sides of our families and that was fun.

Now... back to reality and cleaning my house of all christmas decor and looking for a job.... As for my spending.. I have done really well and haven't bought any thing that I didn't need... I did buy Christmas presents but other than that...nothing.. I'm really proud of my self.... and it hasn't been that hard..

I hope that you all have a great 2010... May all your hopes and dreams come true....

Till next week..... I have the best family in the world!!!!!

No New Halloween Witch!!

I saw the cutest Halloween witch the other night.. I had to have her!!!! Everyone knows that I add a new witch every year to my collection... I called Heather and she told me to turn off the TV and don't buy it.. I did with great sadness...
That night and the next day, that is all I could think about.. She would look so cute in my new basement.
I remembered that I got ten dollars a week to spend or save to buy what I wanted.. Forget getting my nails done.. I would suck it up and get the witch and then save again for my nails later... I can do that.. I was so excited to buy her... ( I haven't spent one dime in over a week in a half.. Opened a savings account and saved 26.00 last week on food. )
I got online to buy my wonderful new addition..... I was so excited....... I told everyone at work what I was going to buy and how cute she was going to be and my grandkids would love her.................On the website.. I can't find her..... I'm looking every where for her!!!!! SHE HAD SOLD OUT!!!!! Oh my heart!!!!!( for those who don't know me, know this is a big deal).
I'm so sad.... Not in the picture for me this year... So my nails can be done and life will be good... However I will think about her through out the fall season which starts in next week.....
Can't wait to get my decorations out.... Love the Fall!!!

Back to school!!

Well everyone is in back to school in Alpine School District.... The buses are rolling... New school clothes, back packs, kids are so excited....
Thom started driving on Wed for the 7th graders. Thursday everyone but the kindergardeners were on the bus. He was happy to see all of the kids and how they have grown during the summer. He said everyone looked spify in their new clothes....

Jasxon came over this morning to show off some of his school clothes... It brought memories of when my kids would come and and do a fashion show for my mom.. It was so much fun... I can't believe that I now get to enjoy this every year now.
He starts school on Wed. He has been such a good helper to me this past year with our remodel and with the yard work this summer so I told him I would buy his back pack for school. So this morning we were off looking.. (Heather this doesn't count, as I told him long ago that I would buy this for him). Nothing at Shopko... so off to Target..... As we got closer to the back packs he was looking for the "right one". There were many choices to choose from... Transformer, GI-Joe... Well, GI-Joe won hands down. It lights up in the front.
He looks so big with it on his back.... He came home and showed Thom and I didn't take a picture of it. So you will have to wait till Wed when he comes over again and I'll post one... He told me as he left he would remember everything that first day so he could tell me all about it....

Riley starts school on Monday at Challenger again this year and she has new clothes as well..
Shaylee starts school on the 31 of August...
I can't believe that they are going to school... They aren't old enough... Next thing I'll know is that they will be off to High School.
