update

just a few seconds to post, right in the middle of lunch for the kiddo's!!

thank you for all the comments...I LOVE comments!!!!

I know I keep saying that I will post some summer menu's and I'm so sorry I haven't yet. Everytime I think I have a few to get on here, something happens, somebody gets sick or has a major catastrophe...(you know: "he's breathing on me!!", "she touched my foot", "he's sitting in my spot")Right now we have had some major family issues happening and I have been so occupied with all of that. Just so as not to worry, everything is working out and I will post about it when the time is right, it's just been a whirlwind of turmoil!!And quite frankly it resembles a Soap Opera!!!

I'm so glad a lot of you are signing up for the 9/11 tribute...I know I feel so good to offer something, even tho small, in light of such a tragic time.

Well, back to getting the food ready!! Have a blessed day!!!

A request

I come to all my blogging family with a request, please follow the link located at the left for 9/11. The site explains it very well, but in essence, you sign up and are then assigned a victim from the 9/11 attacks. You then will post a tribute to this person on your blog, Sept.11th/06. I think this is a fabulous idea and something you can do no matter where you are!!!

Have a blessed weekend!!!

A true inspiration

Busy busy busy, I swear that is all I say!!LOL

Anyways, in one of my online birth clubs, a lady posted a link to this site:

The Shape of a Mother what a breath of fresh air!!! These are the REAL women who are out there!! I truly believe it's time we celebrated the woman's body who has birthed a child and has the marks or rather badges of honour to show for it. Be proud of your stretch marks and hanging bellies, be proud of what your body has accomplished!!! It's taken me to be pregnant with my sixth baby to be able to proudly show off my stretch marks and not be ashamed of my belly. This site has inspired me to show off my belly not only during pregnancy (which I will right up until I give birth!!) I will also show postpartum pics as well!!

It should be interesting and it will be a huge leap for me, as I NEVER show my belly after I've had a baby!!!

Have a blessed Thursday!!!

I'm here!!

Whew, just been busy as usual!!LOL

We got Kayla and Alyssa bunkbeds, so we have officially moved Kayla downstairs into Alyssa's room. I decorated each of their 'sections' with the stickups and border they chose. Alyssa went with Disney Princess and Kayla went with Dora! Maybe I'll post some pics later!

I also got some Winnie the Pooh Border and stickups for baby's room, and got those all up as well. We did Dora stickups in Mariah's room as well.
Robbie has Buzz Lightyear and Spiderman, so hopefully he can find the Spiderman border he had so I can put that up!! Alex is all about science and space in his room. Although for some reason the border won't stay up on his wall, so I think I need to get some actual wallpaper type border for his wall.

So, now I just need to find a couple of 6 drawer dressers and then I'm set!!

So, we have a definate name picked out and between my kids and I, I don't think I'm going to succeed at keeping it a secret like I had planned!!LOL
Oh well, well see!!

Some of the kids are sick, Alex has a cough and stuffy nose, Kayla the same, Alyssa is getting over it, Robbie has the full run of it, Mariah just started sneezing and my nose just feels 'tickly'.

Well, much more to write about, but not enough time!!!LOL
Bill is still off work, not sure what is happening with that...AGAIN!
My mom showed up out of the blue on Thursday night, after my not talking to her since she went on a binge after Hunter passed away. that was interesting, but not too bad. Of course she has promised she has healed and is getting help, so we shall see, only time will tell!!

Oh yeah, I got the results of my ultrasound back, my doc called a few nights ago. Apprently the placenta is anterior (on the front of the uterus) and is low lying, now this usually corrects itself as the uterus grows and stretches, it pulls it upwards (the placenta itself doesn't move!!LOl) so I will have to have an ultrasound when I am about 30wks along to see if it has moved away form the cervical opening...if not...then I will be having a scheduled c-section. Other than that, baby is doing fabulous and is perfect!! Almost time for another belly pic!! I'll be 23 weeks tomorrow and then I'll take a belly pic the following Monday, when I'm at 24wks.

Well, I would like to add a few more things around here, so I'm off!! have a blessed Lord's Day!!
