Preparing.....

During the last week I have been doing a lot of cleaning and preparing for my family to come over Thanksgiving. I have gotten a lot done and a busy weekend ahead of us.. i'm so excited about them coming. I can't even begin to express how happy I am. I'm a little stressed about having so many people in our house at once, but hey that's how family gatherings are right? LOL, i'm excited about cooking too. I LOVE TO COOK! yummy!

I posted these picture of Bryce because I found them. He was like 8 months old on bottom and 6 months for the top one!! and it just reminded me of how fast he's grown. It's truelly remarkable when I think about it. He had his official 18 month appointment and is doing really well. The doctor says that he is tall for his age. He is 2' 8" tall and he weighs just under 29lbs. He's a big boy! He has like 14 teeth now and just talks up a storm. He says a few sentences already like Mommy! I did it. And what you doing? He is super smart and can get into anything. He has learned how to get into the cupboards that even have those safety clips on them. He is learning his body parts really well. Whenever I ask him to tell me where his little piggies (toes) are he points at them and says "Shoes, bye bye?" so adorable.

We have been debating whether or not to enroll him in pre preschool. he would be with kids from age 18 months to 24 months and I could take him every day of the week or just a couple days a week if i wanted. Its reasonably priced I think at only $65 a week. Isn't that unbelievable? wow i thought so.. Anyways.. So, we've been thinking and praying about it. It would be great for him and great for me and school. But carlos is pretty unsure about it for money reasons! we'll see!

well, its getting late and I need to do a bit more school work. WOW. hahaha

BUSY BUSY BUSY

WE GOT TO ATTEND THE MARINE CORPS BALL AT THE BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER AND IT WAS REALLY FUN. I ENJOYED GETTING ALL DOLLED UP AND TAKING PICTURES AND GETTING A BABYSITTER AND HAVING SOME TIME ALONE WITH JUST ME AND CARLOS. NEEDLESS TO SAY HE GOT REALLY DRUNK, (WHICH EXPLAINS THE PICTURE LOL!) BUT THAT'S WHAT MARINES DO AT THE BALL. I'M JUST THANKFUL THAT HE DIDN'T DO A KEG STAND LIKE EVERYONE WANTED HIM TOO. TOO FUNNY

BRYCE WAS A LIL BEE FOR HALLOWEEN.. HE REALLY ENJOYED IT THIS YEAR. WE WENT TRICK OR TREATING AND WHEN WE WENT TO THE DOORS AT FIRST HE WAS REALLY SHY, AND THEN AFTER A COUPLE HE STARTED SAYING "EAT O EAT" (FOR TRICK OR TREAT) SO ADORABLE. HE LOVED IT. AND IT WAS HARD GETTIN HIM OUT OF HIS COSTUME AFTER AN HOUR OF RUNNING AROUND OUTSIDE. ITS BEEN REALLY WARM. ITS WEIRD CUZ IN IDAHO I'M USED TO THE COLD AND IT'S GETTIN UP INTO THE 80'S STILL DURING THE DAY. ITS WEIRD AND FEELS WRONG. IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE THANKSGIVING IS IN TWO WEEKS.. GEEZ.. NO A WEEK. O MY GOODNESS. ANYWAYS.. TIME IS GETTING AWAY FROM ME THAT IS FOR SURE.

WELL IT'S BEEN KINDA CRAZY AROUND HERE LATELY. I HAVE BEEN GOING TO THE DOCTOR ALOT LATELY FOR AN INFECTION IN A BIOPSY THAT I HAD DONE ON MY ARM. OUCH. I GOT A REALLY BAD INFECTION AND THAT HAS BEEN TAKING UP ALL MY FREE TIME BETWEEN BRYCE, HOUSE WORK, AND SCHOOL. O AND CARLOS AS WELL, DON'T FORGET HIM. HEHEHE GOD BLESS HIM. HE TRUELLY IS THE GREATEST MAN EVER. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. HE IS JUST AMAZING.

WELL MY PARENTS ARE COMING TO OUR HOUSE FOR TURKEY DAY AND SO I'M REALLY SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THAT. I'M EXCITED TO SEE THEM, BUT NOT SO MUCH FOR THEM TO SEE WHERE WE LIVE. THIS TOWN IS HORRIBLE. I WAS SO EXCITED TODAY WHEN I FOUND A FREAKING DOLLAR STORE. I KNOW SAD, BUT SERIOUSLY ALL WE HAVE IS A WALMART, KMART AND GROCERY STORES. SO I GET BORED AND ADMIT IT, YOU CAN GET BORED OF WALMART AND YOU CAN ONLY BUY SO MANY XMAS GIFTS FROM THE SAME STORE.. UGH

WELL I GUESS THAT'S ENOUGH FOR NOW. I'M SUPER TIRED AND NEED SOME ZZZZ'S

HOPE ALL IS WELL AND HAVE A GREAT TURKEY DAY IF I DON'T WRITE UNTIL AFTER!

LOVE
