New project--Toy Bag...

Ok so I decided to make Madison a super large toy bag to hang over the front of her crib--I am currently adding some embellishments so I will post a pic after it is all done...

11 months...

My sweet angel is 11 months old today.  Just 1 more month to go and she will be a year old....makes me so sad it is happening way too fast.

Birthday Party...

I went shopping for Madison's birthday party supplies .  I got supplies for 100 people so that should cover things.....lol--it was fun to shop for though and I got the goodies that I wanted so there people....

Stocking update...

Ok I haven't posted an update on the stocking--I finished it and I used thread that I had at the house that sucked and it shreds so there is a spot that has came undone already so it would have to be opened back up so I decided to use it this year (you can't see the tear) and then start a new one later so I can make it the size that I want.
 P.S. It looks a little funky shaped b/c I have stuff that is too big folded inside and toys shoved down the foot.

stocking part 1

I started the stocking and it is way smaller than I wanted it to be.  I cut it out way too small but it was my first time and I cannot sew....it is going better than I expected since I messed it up by making it too small....not done yet so stay tuned for more updates....

Starting to Rip my Hair out!!!

Ok so apparently I don't think that I have enough to stress about.  I am trying to start preparing for Madison's 1 year birthday party.  And Holy COW!!!.  What was I thinking?  I have started a rough draft of people to invited and WOW, my list is 83 people.  What am I going to do to narrow that down?  Any suggestions?  I don't want to hurt someones feelings by not inviting them so I added some people that I would not have otherwise even though I left a ton out that I thought would be ok with it....

This is worse than planning a wedding!!!!

Madison 10 months...

I took Madison to the doctor today.  She has had a cold for a week now and I am tired of her coughing when she is laying down.  Poor baby can't rest.  So I took her b/c I wanted to make sure what I was giving her was any good or what else that I should give her.  Doc gave her a perscription for some cough medicine so hopefully it is better than the over the counter stuff.....So she is now 19lbs 2oz's and 28 1/2 "....my baby is growing up so fast--she will be a year old before I know it.

So Saundra put the fabric and such in the mail today so hopefully in the next few days I will be starting to make Madison's Christmas stocking....I am nervous I can't sew at all and I will be doing it all by hand.  I will be at Paula's next Saturday, man I wish she had a sewing machine and could show me how to use it....lol!!!

Stay tuned for updates on the stocking....

Update on Insurance...

Not a happy camper today.... Insurance will not do anything b/c they say that the insurance is for a fast accidental problem and ours was a slow leak that happened over time....so our floors are our problem...yeah!!! I love having insurance like when people don't have insurance on their vehicles and get into accidents--ooh well is what you hear about that--but they say you HAVE to have it b/c it is illegal not to....I love how nothing seems to pan out no matter how much money you throw at it.....I would burn my house down but they would say that I started the fire so screw me.  Also have to replace our hot water tank b/c it has a leak that can't be repaired but it works great.....

I want to know when we will get at least a tiny break in all the crap that keeps poring down on us.

P.S.  I thought I had the day off tomorrow and just found out that I don't and I have no clue what hours that I am needed.  Also my pay check was not in the bag like it was suppose to be so now I have to track down the mother to have her bring it by tomorrow even though I am suppose to have it today.  I would dig a hole but I would just hit rock so why bother....

Lazy day...

Ok so today nothing is going on....I need to clean the house but all I have managed to do is a load of laundry...Check back with me tomorrow to see if I managed to get anything done.....

Thursday the Insurance Inspector is coming by to see about our damage to our floors--on the up side Matt found the leak and can fix it so the ultimate question is "Will the Insurance Company cover the damage to the floors?", they need to be ripped up and redone and replaced in the kitchen, all 3 bedrooms, bathroom, and hallway--I think the living room is ok but not sure--the cost would be way more than what we could handle so please pray that the insurance will take care of it.....

This moments thoughts...

Ok so this year my husband has to work Christmas Eve and Christmas day....SUCKS!!!  This is our first year as parents and we are super excited (me more so than him but I am an extremenist--if that even is a word....).  So we have decided to do our Christmas this year on the 23rd--works for me b/c my "baby girl" gets to open her presents a little bit earlier--(no lecture from you paula)!!!!  On the top side I am sitting her munching on some bbq cornuts...HOLLA!!!!

I guess I am back...

Ok so apparently I am getting back at this thing since my peeps are on board....I have had so much happen in my life since I last blogged but if you know me than you know my life....so that is all I have to say for now....
