It's Been A While

This past couple of days have been chaotic! I have been so busy here lately! I have had a very sick baby. She has had walking phenomena & that has been an adventure in itself! She is getting much better though. One of the worst and hardest experiences I have had to go through! I have been doing observations at Maddox Middle School, which I loved! I only had to do 5 days though so that was good. I really enjoyed the teachers, class & students. I had to teach one of my lessons in Beth Borders class, & thankfully I did quite well! ;) She is a great teacher! I could so see myself teaching an eighth grade class after these observations!

We had the kids this past weekend. Jeremy had guard drill so It was me, Hannah, Parker & Brookelyn-Grace. That was an adventure on its own! One very sick baby, Hannah running small fevers and just trying to take care of everyone alone. Hard work..Not fun! Mom did get Hannah and Parker like 3 bags of the animal bracelets that all the kids are wearing. They were ecstatic!!!

Jeremy bought me tons of stuff from Kirkland's. Here are some pics of the stuff I got :)


The foyer entrance from the front door...missing one picture frame that broke :( and missing the mirror above it..got to hang it soon!

One of the plates I got. There is another one on the other side :)

A flower arrangement, plate & candle holder :) I still have got to hang this mirror too. Foyer entrance from garage.

One for each side of the fire place.

Also we got a new bedroom suit! IT IS BEAUTIFUL! It made our room!
Here it is :)



My messy closet! We put the dresser in the master closet! ;)

Christmas 2008

This year was by far the best Christmas I have ever had! Brookelyn-Grace has brought so much to mine and Keith's life! She is our everything! I loved watching her open all her presents from our families (she got sooo much. She had almost double of everything! Ugh we have a lot to take back!) Christmas morning was the best! :) She loved opening presents, but I think it was just because she loved eating the paper ha ha. Everytime she would open a present and there was no more paper she would be reaching for another! It was so adorably sweet! We taped every minute of it! When we first got up Keith went straight to the living room and got ready to tape her and as soon as me and her came around the corner she lite up! She started getting so excited and burying her head in me like she was embarrassed! It was so funny! Another thing that made this Christmas truly special is that she is "DADA" for the first time! Then the next day she said "Moma" It was great! She so discovered her voice Christmas morning because ever since then she has been saying "babababa moma bababab Dada" Its just beautiful! Well I got my I-PHONE! Yah, I was sooo excited! I usually never buy in to the phones but I just really, really wanted one for some reason. I love it! You can do just about anything on it! I also got some tennis shoes, a sewing machine, some tops and three beautiful pictures from Kirkland's to put in the house :) Everything was PERFECT!
