Fear

Image
For two week Jaime was home. It was great. I was able to sleep at night without a care in the world. He just went back on_____day. On the first night he was back, it wasn't too bad and I thought I was growing accustomed to him being gone at night. Then my parents informed me that there have been some car break-ins. I think three houses have been hit with my parents house included. After them telling me that, and my car being new, I have been unable to sleep for the past couple of days. I fear that I may need some pills to start sleeping. I have been sleeping till 1 or 2 in the morning and waking up a couple of times after just to check on Megan and around the house. So when I wake up in the morning, Im pretty sleepy and draining through most of the day. Jaime's schedule is not too bad, but on the days where he gets overtime and he is gone for three days in a row. Yep, my body feels it. Not only do I feel lonely but Im so scared. This past week, I also di

Megan's room

Its very safe to say that Megan outgrew her tiny little toddler bed. Which means she is no longer a toddler. Last week on Thursday we decided to buy Megan her big girl bed. I was pretty excited about it and so was Jaime. He wanted to buy something pink but I would like for her bed to last till she is at least in High school, so I wanted something that she would not be so embarrassed about if she was to invited friends over.  I still want to add more to the room but My God does the girl have toys oh and lets not forget the  ridiculous amount of shoes she has too. She has a little less play space but it's still a good amount for her to play in. I wish her room was just a tad bigger but for her at this time, this is perfect. I think when baby G wants to come out and play, it is going to be a little crowded but don't think that will be happening for awhile. So I think for now we are good. Her bed is so nice and comfy I have already slept on it. She comes to o

Senior Year

Image
Today is the first day of my senior year in college. It is a bitter sweet moment. I'm scared, nervous, happy, and excited. I mean this is the time when I should be jumping up for joy and all but all I keep thinking about it next year when I will be having a classroom. I need to start getting a library together, I need to get my tests going, I need to start being a little more creative. I need to loosen up with the kiddos. I need to make some impressions, which I think I have already, and to get our family ready for the next chapter in our life. Wish me luck on my first day back.

Great week so far and it's only Tuesday

In reference to the title...I wrote this yesterday:) This is now my last week as a Junior in college. Starting Monday, I will be beginning my senior year of college. I could seriously cry right now but I wont because I'm just too happy to be crying right now. I have done all the finishing thing for the semester and next week I will be contacting my hometowns district so I can be a student teacher in one of their schools. Pretty scary stuff, I tell ya. This week has kicked off on a great start and that rarely happens so lets start with the biggest news. We bought this beautiful Honda CRV. It has been my dream car for a very long time and we now have one. We actually just wanted to see how much we would paying every month. We didn't necessary plan on buying it that day. They gave us a great deal and we just could not say no. We did negotiate numbers so I felt a little bit better about that. We thought it would have been more on the price but it was perfect price and we need

100 Books (41-50)- Might be a long post

Image
This past January I made a reading goal of 100 books to read for 2013. I love to read and I can never have enough with just one book. I don't know if I will be reaching my goal this year because of my senior year of college, but I'm having an awesome time reading these amazing books. Well, I would say most are amazing, and some of them are just ok. If I think a book is just o.k I will let you know. If I think it's awesome, then you should get it. Most books I get for free from my public library. I either get them from their eBook database or I check out the books. I sometimes buy books from amazon but only if it is not regular price. I have noticed that when you buy a book from target it's probably regular priced or 30% off and sometimes when you compare those prices to Amazon, it's much cheaper to buy from amazon, but sometimes it's not always the case. Just search around for better deals. Other post on books DIY Bookmarks January Reads The Se

The Big 26!

I spent most of the day(Monday), making a new design for the blog. When I should have probably been studying for my practice state test on Wednesday. Bad on my part. I just got tired of seeing my design. I think it's been there for awhile and it was time for something new.   Now if only I can make buttons, we would be in business! I know someone sent me the link so I can get it done but I didn't understand it. I need like a step by step type of thing for me. This past weekend was Jaime's 26th Birthday. We just had a little small thing for him. Some of my family and some of his. All he wanted was some hotdogs, he's in a weird phase with hotdogs all of a sudden, and some drinks for his special day. He got a ton of clothes and a watch. We fell asleep pretty late and the next day (Saturday) we spent most of the day indoors. This past weekend was Tax free weekend in Texas and I expected that stores to have more people but Jaime and I decided to get out of the house o

Vacation!!

Image
Jaime and I had been talking about taking a vacation somewhere. We mentioned Corpus Christi, San Antonio, Austin,Glaveston and Houston. Ultimately, we chose San Antonio and decided that we would see all the things we didn't see the last time we were there. Megan is  a little older and she would be more able have some fun at the park. We had a great time at the park. There was not a lot of people this time around. I think the last time we came it was on a weekend and there was just too many people. We went on a Tuesday so there was not a lot of people. I mean seriously there wasn't any lines at rides. Crazy huh?! We also purchased a stroller..and let me just say the stroller was a god sent! The last time we came we didn't bring a stroller and we regretted it so much, so it was awesome. I recommend taking one. We also went on the riverwalk and went to the the Rainforest cafe for the very first time and it was amazing!  Megan was a little scared with the whole thunder
