Vacation here I come.....

Today is finally Friday, and it couldn't get any better. I am getting off work early and I am off for the next 9 days....WOOHOO!!!!

I went to the doctor yesterday. We were hoping to hear the heart beat but couldn't. The nurse told me not to worry about it, she could see it. Christon didn't get to go with me so sissy wanted to and we got to see it move and got some really great pics. If I can get my scanner to work I will get them on here. If not I will see if I can go over to Jill's and scan them ( I think she has one). Emily's friend Kelsey went with us so to go shopping after my appointment. After my appointment we went to the mall. I was on a mission to get a swim suit and some clothes for vacation next week. Em had to have a swim suit also, and Kels need some shorts. I told the girls to let me get mine and then we could get theirs. They were fine with that. I found everything I needed in my new favorite store Motherhood. Even though it is some what expensive they had some good sales goin. Also it was the only place that had a big enough swim suit to fit my huge chest. I got my stuff and we went and got what the girls needed. We got Em's swim suit on sale and some what a great deal and Kels found her some shorts that weren't too short. I was starving so we headed to Red Lobster. I have been craving it for about 2 wks now and Christon hates the place so I had to take my self. I had the Ultimate Fest and cleaned my plate. Needless to say I was miserable. I needed to go to Wal-Mart and Target but I told the girls I could go with Becca Friday. We grabbed Christon Mancino's before leaving BG and headed home. I had to take the girls to mom and dad's. On our way there we seen Bubby at the community center so I took the girls home and stopped there on my way out. Andrew Forbes and Jerry Ashton Hurt are having there wedding reception there Sat and were decorating. I talked to them a while and me and Bub headed to there house. I showed Becca my ultrasound pics and played with Mackenzie for a bit. Becca got me some of her maternity clothes together for me to take home. I visited with them for a while and headed home.

Today is mine and Christon's 5th year anniversary. We have been together going on 9 years. It has been a great 9 years though, I can't complain. I know our next 5 will be completely different with the baby on the way. But I know that it will be a great change for the best. I couldn't ask for a better husband. He takes care of me when I am sick, cleans my house, does his own laundry and mows the lawn. I know he will be a great dad also. I don't know what I would do without him.

We go to Vandy this coming Monday. Hoping that it will be our only trip. So I ask that you pray for us that it will be a safe trip down and back, also that it is our one and only trip. Also we are leaving Tue morning for Eldora to see the Dream and the Prelude to the Dream race. I am very excited about that also. So keep us in your prayers of traveling mercy.

Too I understand that Tara and Rodney McMillin's youngest is having test run today on his heart I ask everyone to also remember lil Lawsen. Tara I promise God will take care of your lil man.

Back at it....

It is Tuesday and not a day I was looking forward to. I had a great weekend, even though it was a whole day longer it still wasn't long enough. But very eventful.

I left the office Friday and went and got my hair done. I got to see Laurie and do some catching up with her and Melissa. Laurie tried to get me to cut all my hair off and I just couldn't do it. After I got my hair done I went home and watched TV and went to bed.

Saturday we got up early to go to Bowling Green to get a new refrigerator. We were hoping to leave by 10am but I had a bad nose bleed and we didn't leave the house until going on 12pm. We went to Sears and got the one we wanted, it will be IN the house this Wed. I am very excited....lol. We went looking for Christon a trailer so he can haul his lawn mower. He didn't find what he wanted. No one had the size he wanted so we went and grabbed a bite to eat and headed home. Garrett, Becca and Justin brought lil mac over to stay the night not to long after we got home. She was a sleep when she got there and started to wake up, I went to put her passy in and couldn't find it. We looked everywhere for it and it was nowhere to be found. Christon called Garrett and he had it in the car with them. Needless to say they had to turn back around...lol. We watched tv and played with her for awhile and Christon decided he was going to the grocery. He was hungry and didn't want anything that was at the house. I had rented movies on my way home Friday afternoon and we were going to watch them when he got back. Tiff called while he was gone and her and girls wanted to come over and watch National Treasure 2 with us. Jason had went to races and she don't like sitting at home alone with the girls. I told her to come on over. They got there about 9pm and Emma was already a sleep and it was lil mac's bedtime also. Hannah played with her for a lil bit and then they were both ready to go to bed. I got lil mac to sleep and Hannah laid on the couch with mom. They left about 11pm.

Sunday we got up and went to mom and dads to help Garrett clean up the river front for Rebecca's birthday party. Got there and Christon mowed mom and dad's yard while me, Emily, Eliza, Becca and lil mac goofed off around the house. We didn't get the river front cleaned b/c Christon had to mower Garrett and Becca's yard and Garrett had something go wrong with his disk and had to fix it. So that set us behind on everything. Mom cooked a ham for supper. We all ate and played outside until the bugs got to biting. We left there about 10pm.

Got up bright and early on Monday and went to mom and dad's to finish what they didn't get done on Sun. They got the river cleaned up just in time the rain came in. I had brought movies with me to watch just in case it did rain. It was a good thing I did too. Mom made veggie soup and hot corn bread for lunch and we all laid around and watched movies all day. Me, Christon, Garrett, Becca, Mackenzie, Mom, Dad, Emily, and Uncle Steve all stayed in the living room for the rest of the afternoon. Daniel, Mykle and Riah all came in later. The rain finally stopped. We all went outside and sat on the porch and talked for a lil bit. Everyone left about 6pm.

Well I better get back to work. I have a lot to do before I go on VACATION next week. With this being a short week and I go to the Dr. on Thur. I don't have a lot of time. Hope everyone has a great rest of the day.

Finally Friday.....

Man this has been a long and rough week for me. After the bad nose bleed on Wed. I also had one on Thur. This weather is to blame. But I plan to rest this weekend, with 3 days off I am sure to get plenty of rest.

Wednesday after work I stopped by the shop to see Tiffany and Jason. She wasn't there when I got there but came in a lil bit later. Tiff, Hannah and I went and picked up Emma at Cool Springs Day care. Tiff dropped me off at the shop to get my truck and Hannah wanted me to come over and see her new steps. They just got there steps and front door finished. So Hannah had to ride with me. After Hannah showed me the stairs and everything Tiff asked if me and Christon wanted to eat supper with them. So she ran to the store and got stuff for supper and I stayed and watched to girls. We sat outside on the porch and Hannah entertained me and Emma with her singing. She is such a funny kid. Hannah doesn't like me to hold Emma for a very long time because she thinks Emma is hurting my baby...lol. So she wanted to go in so we could put Emma on the floor to play. Mom finally got home and we started supper while Hannah fed Emma, which didn't last too long I had to finish feeding her while Tiff finished the meat loaf. Tiff forgot the mashed potatoes and gravy so she called Jason to stop by the store on his way in to pick them up. When he finally got to the house he was empty handed. He wanted to drive the car that they were test driving. We got everything in the oven and me and Hannah sat down to watch Hannah Montana, our favorite show. 30 min later no Jason, then 45 min still no Jason. Tiff and I both tried to call him with no answer. Mean while Tiff was trying to fold clothes and Hannah was not helping by getting clothes out of the basket and playing with them. After Tiff trying to get Hanna to stop, I told Hannah it was time for a bath. When I got her in there she was in a hurry to get out for some reason and I didn't understand because she LOVES taking a bath. Finally she told me that she had to hurry up because she want to go the the David Bridal concert(meaning David Cook).....lol. She was talking about American Idol and she wanted to see Carry Underwood on there also. So we had to take a really fast bath. We get out the bath and she had to have her hair dried and curled for the concert....lol. I told her we didn't have time to curl it and she was surprisingly ok with that. I get her hair dried and her dress on just in time for the David Bridal concert....lol. We go to the living room and Christon had come in and Jason wasn't too far behind him. Me and Tiff finished up supper and we all sat and ate and watched American Idol. When it went off it was time for General Hospital and that meant time for Hannah to lay down with dad on the couch. We were leaving but not fast enough for Hannah. She literally kicked us out the door and turned all the lights out behind us. We went home and I went straight to bed.

Thursday was a short day at the office. I got out at 12 and went to the bank and home. I took a long hot bath and sat around the house and did some laundry. Becca called me about 3 and asked if I wanted to come over for a bit that she was making potato soup. I got dressed and headed that way. She called right before I went out the door and said that Maw's head stone was up. I called Emily to see if she wanted to go with me to she it and then to Becca's. I went and picked up sissy and visited with mom and dad a bit and Daniel came in while I was there. Me and sis went and seen the head stone and it is absolutely gorgeous. We got the Becca's and Mackenzie was asleep so we watched some TV and I help Becca with a cheese cake, which was really good. Lil Mac woke up and we played with her for a bit and ate. Bubby came in not much longer. We watched Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. It was about 8pm and I told sis I needed to get home. I stopped to get gas and milk on my way home and about had a heart attack at the check I had to write. I was $5.93 shy of writing a $100 check at IGA express. I was not happy.

I sorry this one was so long, I guess that is what I get for not updating it daily....LOL. I better get back to work. Everyone have a safe and happy Memorial Day weekend.

Bad Day...

Today has been sooooo long and I got here an hour late. Yeah I had a TERRIBLE nose bleed this morning that put me an hour behind. With that I haven't felt all that great today. I plan to go home and take a nap. Hopefully I will feel better after a nice nap.

I go to Vanderbilt in about a week and a half to see if this is going to be a high risk pregnancy. After seeing my doctor in Bowling Green and informing him of all my health issues, he suggested that I go and see the high risk doctor at vandy. The main reason for this visit is to answer some questions. If I have to have intravenous iron is it safe for the baby, if not then can I have a blood transfusion? Dr. Beverly was unable to answer those questions for me so he is sending me there. Also I already have a doctor at Vandy who could also work with the OB doctor there and help with everything. I go there on June 2nd and leave for vacation on June 3rd. So I am asking for everyone's prayers that this will be our one and only trip to Vandy.

Ok now let me tell you about my refrigerator problem......
Well back about year ago our refrig ice maker went out and made a huge mess. Then after that it started to leak out in the kitchen floor. Not knowing that is was leaking in the back we had a problem. We pulled it out and noticed the water damage on the wall and the floor. It had leaked all the way over to my stove and it was about to fall in. So in April Christon decided that he would take off work and replace the floor. My house was turned upside down. My stove and refrig were out side on the back porch for a whole week or longer. When he was done the stove was put back in and the refrig was to stay outside. This was because it is a side-by-side (which we both hate) and it leaked. His mom was to get a new one and we were going to take her old one and her stove. Then after having to go outside to get stuff out of it and with all the rain we had I was getting really frustrated about it. I complained every night about it and on top of that I got a head cold right after I found out I was pregnant and running in and out to get stuff didn't help. His mom had a sit back on getting hers and was told that it would be in at the end of May. When hers come in Christon had Garrett come over and help him move everything around. So they move my stove over to his mom's in Beaver Dam and bring her stove and refrig back. So a month and a half after waiting on a refrig to come in my house IT DON'T FIT!!!! I was pissed. I was so mad I couldn't see straight. So they had to take everything back. He wouldn't let me take the stove either because it "don't match"....lol. So now after all that I still don't have a refrig in the house and my kitchen table is still in Emily's room because he don't want to have to move it in and then out to get the refrig back in. We plan to get one this Saturday.


Thanks for listening to me ramble. Hope everyone has a great rest of the week.....it is almost over.

Long Weekend!!

Well it is Monday....and i didn't want to get out of bed.

This was a really long weekend for me.

Friday I left here at 1pm to get Christon to the Dr. by 1:30 and when I get home they had rescheduled his appointment. So he was feeling ok so we went on the Owensboro. We stopped in the see the Westerfield boys on the way and Randy was the only one there. We hung around and chatted with him for a while. He informed us that he is planning on going back to racing, which I am very excited about. Since Jimmy's wreck last Saturday he is done for the year. So it will be nice to see at least one Westerfield out there.
Then we made our way on to Owensboro. Christon had to go and look at chainsaws, which I could care less about. We never found one that he wanted after going to 4 stores. So after going to every store he could think of looking for him a chainsaw, I made him take me to Target, which he hates. I was looking for a glider rocker. But never found what I wanted. With our shopping behind us we grabbed a great steak at Texas Roadhouse and headed back towards the house. We stopped in Beaver Dam and looked a Dodge Nitro that I have been wanting at Don Moores. After looking a cars that I will never be able to own, we went to see Don Adam's new house. He has a beautiful new place there in Beaver Dam. After visiting with them for awhile I told Christon we had to get home b/c Mackenzie would be there a lil before 6am.

Mackenzie came and stayed all weekend with us. Becca had to work all weekend and Garrett had to work on Sat. and was coming over Sun. to help us move our refrig. So she just stayed all weekend with us. After visiting with some of Christon's family from Georgetown, Jessica and Caleb were coming over to the house to watch the Nascar All Star race. We ordered out and ate and had a great time. It was time for lil mac's bath and let me tell you she did NOT like any part of it. She usually likes taking a bath but I think she was just sooooo tired after playing all day that she was just ready to go to bed. So got her bath, dressed for bed and she was out like a light, and slept all night. Christon got a call from Jason and he needed him to do a rollback run in town. He was on his way to Franklin all ready on a run. So Christon was able to go and do that and be back in time to see the last to laps of the race.

I was awake by a blow to the nose by a lil girl on Sunday morning. I got up and fixed my nose and went back to bed. She finally went back to sleep and we slept till 9:30. Bubby came over about 11 and helped Christon take the stove over to his mom and dad's and bring the other stove and refrig back. They get back and the refrig don't fit. So they had to take everything back. (I will tell you more about my refrig problem later) When they got back Christon and I headed to Bowling Green to find a new refrig.
So today at lunch we are going to the scratch and dent place here in town to see what he has.


Well Jason and Tiff made it home fine on Saturday afternoon. Jas said they had a good time and got to see a lot in New York City. They weren't able to stop and look at a lot b/c it was raining so much. But they did get the drive through and see a lot. He said that it took the 6 hours to get out of New York City. Crazy!!!

I got great news yesterday that I am not going to be going through this great thing call pregnancy. My cousin Leigh is also pregnant!!!!!!! I am so excited for her and Jolly. Her first dr. appointment is June 10th.

Well I have better get back to work. Everyone have a great rest of the day.

Finally

Well after much delay I have finally created a blog. I can't make any promises that I will keep it updated as much as Tara does but I will try.



Well a lil about me. I am married to the most amazing man in the world Christon aka Zeek. We are expecting our first child in Dec. That is the main reason for my creating a blog. When I first found out that I was pregnant my girlfriend encouraged me to keep a journal. So I went to wal-mart and got a nice journal to write in every night. Well the truth, I think I have written in it one time. So I thought if I did a blog I would be better at it and it would be a great way for me to update all my friends and family that I don't see much on how we are doing, like I said no promises though....lol.



To day is a lazy day here at work. After getting up late and then couldn't find anything to fit my ever grow chest I finally made it here, (15 min late). The good thing is we don't have any patients today b/c my physical therapist is having to cover our clinic in Brownsville. So with no patients I get to get out of here early. I just wish it was a prettier day to go home early. I am going to get my nails done when I get out of here and then if it isn't raining when I get home I plan to clean out my truck. Which needs it badly. But if not I plan to wash clothes and get some put away and get the maternity clothes put in the closet. Which I have planned to do for the last week. Thanks to Jill, Tiffany and Crystal I don't think I will have to buy much. I still have Becca and Mykel's to pick through also.



Please remember the Clark family in your prayers today. Also Jason, Tiffany and Jerry are traveling to Connecticut (or somewhere close to that) today to pick up a rollback that he has bought. So please remember them that they have a safe trip up and back.


I better get back to work, I have a few evals I need to get done before I leave here today. I hope everyone has a great rest of the day.
