an update of sorts....

so this weekend was nice & relaxed.  not much happened, well that i can remember anyways.  :)  but yesterday had some ups & downs.  first off, hopp was acting weird yesterday morning like really fussy & just whiny.  i took her to daycare & she just burst into tears with nanny.  like it wasn't a good day, usually she is clinging on to me & crying but it was "meady", as hopp calls her.  :)  nanny looked at her face & she said, "her lips are white, i think she might throw up", we took her temp & it was good so she said just to leave her & would call me if she needed me.  well, sure enough she threw up about 30 minutes after i dropped her off.  poor baby was not feeling well, that's why she was acting so crazy!  so i went & picked her up & then on the way home she said, "i fro up mama", i said you need to throw up & she shook her head & i grabbed an empty sack in the car & told her if she was going to throw up to do it in the bag, almost before i could finish my sentence she was throwing up in the bag.  :(  poor baby, i hate when your babies are so sick!  so we got in the shower when we got home & then got some pedialyte & got some comfy clothes on.  she laid in my bed & watched some coraline & i started working on my invites to be mailed for a work thing.  we then had some lunch, she ate lots of it!  i think it was all the mucus that she can't spit out when she coughs, i know gross but most of you are mommies & totally know what i'm talking about.  :)  after the car throw up session she never got sick again & was pretty normal acting afterwards.  then she took a nap & then got mad when i had to wake her up 45minutes later to go get q from school but she was excited to see her when we got there.  :)



so sweet!!!

so here's the good part:
i was talking to q after school about her day & i was looking at her mouth when she was talking to me & i noticed something weird about her teeth.  they are starting to move around, does that make sense?  like they are going crooked & one is further in front than the other & then it dawned on me!  q is about to loose some teeth!!!!  :)  oh she has been talking about this for months!!!  so i said q open your mouth & the first one i touched wiggled!!!  :)  i touched a couple more & only one was really noticeable about wiggling so i said to her very excitedly, "q you have a loose TOOOOOOTH!!!!"  omg i wish i had been recording it, she was so super excited.  she wanted to tell daddy & nana right away so i texted jason & told him that q had something really important she needed to tell him as soon as he got on break!  so when he came out for break she ran over to him & told him about her tooth.  she was jumping around & being all silly!  such a happy momentous occasion!  i told her it wasn't quite ready yet but if she works at wiggling it we may have a pulled tooth & a fairy visit by the weekend!  :o)  i will get a pic as soon as we pull it.  oh & q got her bella ballerina shoes she has been dying to get.  my MIL took her to do some errands & they finally saw them at shoe carnival & of course every q wish is her command!  :)  you will get to see them on the hair wrap-up on friday.

speaking of weekends again, this weekend is a 3DAY WEEKEND!!!!!  yipppppppeeeeeeeee!!!!!  i can't wait!  on top of that, it's jason's bday too.  he will be the big 3-5 this saturday & finally the same age as me.  :)

i have not gotten very far on my crochet-along with inner hooker.  :(  on the first week i'm supposed to make 88 rd1/rd2 circles.  i'm only 14 deep!!!  :(  it's taking longer than i thought it would only because i hate, hate, HATE changing colors so often, all that weaving in kills me!  everyone is doing a 6 round granny but i'm only doing a 4 round granny.  so i will probably have to make more than the full 88 squares but we will see because i used a bigger hook plus i think the 4 round looks better & not so bulky.  i will post the circles (hopefully i will have more done tonight at cnc night) on wed. as a wipw.  hope everyone has a great rest of the week!



this is what my "work station" aka the couch looked like this weekend.  as you see, i have more circles done, this was only 11 & i have done all the rd 2 on the orange/red circles.  i just started the red/yellow circles.  the four colors are going to be red/yellow/blue/orange.  i'm doing dark color squares & then bright color squares.  i can't wait to see how it turns out.  i'm then going to join them in black.  it's a version of the afghan found on lafayette's couch on tb.  :o)



sorry bad pic but i did my nails this sunday, forgot about this one.  let me just say that being alone with a 2yr that can't wipe their own butts is not good for drying nails!!!  ;P  i think i have about 5-6 layers of polish on them.  i started out with a dark purple & then added a little/big glitter polish on top & then a tiny glitter layer on top of that.  they turned out really nice & i have had several nice comments on them.  i was asked it they were acrylics, nope they are all my real nails.  :) 



weekend of 7/16/11

so on saturday we did our first cash in of our cans, q is saving up for a barbie car but the way things are going i may have to get her to save for something a little less money like the new bella ballerina shoes she wants so bad.  the barbie car is $300-400 & can are not a fast way to get money.  anywho, we went to the aluminum can cash place & she made $2.50!  she was so excited, the guy asked her if they were for her & she said yes so excitedly.  :)  so we got them unloaded & he weighed them & gave us the money.  thank you carissa & christine for saving your cans for us.  i just got some from erika the other day.  so see why i may have to have her change her mind, also she is about to be 6 & the age requirement is to 6, i know she would be ok for a year or two though but it may take that long to get the money saved up.  maybe we can find one on craigslist when we get some more money & paint it or something. 

holding her can loot!  thanks again ladies!

then we didn't really do anything on saturday, nana came & picked up the girls & they spent the night with her & it was just me & jason to catch up on shows & watch our movies.  again, i like my weekends like this, laid back & easy.  :)  oh i did go to an 'adult' party at crystal's house, she even has evidence which i look like a huge whale. 

then it was time to pick up jess, we met them half way but hopp had to go potty so we made a stop at thurber & got out.  there was this little make-shift swingset with these horse swings.  ummm... they reminded me of pony play, you know the adult kinky sex play.  the girls thought they were cute but it was too funny not to pass up so i had to snap a pic.  :]

pony play anyone?!?  :D

then we got home, we ate a late dinner & i sent ALL the girls to bed.  they were so tired that not too soon after pocahontas started that they started dropping off like flies.  q ended up in bed with jess, she has missed her so much & was glad to get to snuggle with her.  jess said q kept her warm, that kid is always cold!  so glad my baby girl is at home!  i truly missed her, not too long before she leaves the house for college, so i really need to enjoy this time with her. 

everyone but hopp watching the movie!  look at her snuggling her baby!  her hand is behind her head too, that means she is about to pass out!  ;)
