Revival

OK. i am going to try to get back into blog gear.

the thought of catching up is so overwhelming.....so i came up with an idea of how to do that without much work on my part.......... b/c i am a lazy woman.
the following are my facebook posts from September -November 2009. it has kind of become similar to journal entries for me, an almost daily thing.
so mostly this entry is just for me----- to have a way to keep these posts instead of them being lost in facebook world.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sept. 3----my daughter puts on the most fabulous most pitiful show when she is fighting sleep. she pulls all sorts of tricks: i have to potty, i have garbage in my mouth (??), i dropped blankie, i pee peed, i need a drink etc. here is a new one today: Mommy! I cry into my pillow! ha ha ha

Sept. 3----okay, so far jenny's bedtime performance tonight has included these classics: "mommy, i hurt myself!" (a regular that i forgot to mention) and also a new one: "kristen? you in there?"

Sept. 6----made it to worship against all odds, only to discover while there that my princess is sick. no wonder she was kicking up so much about going to nursery. sorry everybody whom i possibly have infected!

Sept. 21---its hard to get a shower when you have a tot and an infant also. that is why i stopped by jordan hare on saturday night for the super soaker. what a good game. glad that we stuck it out. Weegle Weegle to my auburn fam!!!!!!!!

Sept. 24---i can't stand it when i am at grocery store and need some item that is hard to find. have been looking for velveeta at bi-lo for a whole month. there should be a spot in grocery store just for these miscellaneous products with no proper home..........

Sept. 25---serenity now ---my dog ate a mushroom and is on death bed. was curious if any of you have any mushroom stories or information??

Sept. 26---our sweet Hank has gone to doggie heaven. he was the best of all the bestest dogs that ever lived!!! he was a golden retriever and golden is good way to describe him. we struck gold when we adopted him. p.s. watch out for mushrooms people!!!

Sept. 27---somebody stop me from facebooking and make me start getting ready for church!!! its a miracle i woke up this early!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oct. 2-----i love our mom's bible study!!! God bless all the teachers and volunteers!!!

Oct. 7-----people----we LOST the blankie. in the mall. i am exhausted

Oct. 7-----Jenny is really being a big girl about losing the blankie. i am surprised that i am so disappointed that we lost it. i guess i am sentimental ! today for nap and bedtime she was satisfied with the backup blankie--- aka "troy's blankie". she has not had any sort of meltdown yet. but i did not take her to bible class........

Oct. 12----bad experience today at doctor office makes me want to smoosh people

Oct. 13----as a result of the bad experience yesterday, i did not get my flu vaccine as i had planned to, and then i had some flu symptoms begin on the same day. how bizarre is that? i think it is going to be a light case......whatever it is.

Oct. 15----my child just purposely spilled about 8 ounces of milk out of her sippy cup onto our tan velvet chair. Lord help me not to whoop her too hard

Oct. 16----my very first trip to the ER -----wasn't so bad

Oct. 16----Jenny has on my shoes and she is walking around pretending to be me. She says "I got on shoes and goin to da hospital" then she says "I go to doctor and get band aids" (both accurate accounts of my day) what does this say about me? can't stay away from the doctors this year!!!

Oct. 22----i really think that life on second shift is the best fit for our family. Not sure what Will thinks about it, and I suppose his opinion IS important since he is the one actually working it. hee hee

Oct. 23----accidentally stepped on a wooden alphabet block. my middle toe did not approve.

Oct. 23----had a blast at Boo in the Zoo!! Jenny was Cinderella and Troy sported his Jackolantern outfit and a silly halloween hat. We really enjoyed hanging out with our friends. Fun costumes, trick or treat, face paint, pony ride, carousel, funnel cake etc. We are maxxed out on fun!!!

Oct. 26----jenny and her friend thought it would be fun to sneak away from the halloween party today at church and give their moms heart attacks. after 5 min. we found them in the GYM sitting on the bleachers. that is like a whole mile away from the cafe - seriously??!! i only took my eyes off of her for 10 seconds. just goes to show how quick those little villians are. SCARY STUFF! who needs horror movies just lose your child.

Oct. 26----if Jenny doesn't poop in the potty soon i am going to just lose it people. any suggestions? or just some sympathetic stories i can relate to?

Oct. 30----I was denied access to facebook for about 2 days and surprisingly i have survived

Oct. 30----must have bad karma cause i am sick AGAIN. fever is not cool.

Oct. 31----booooo. my kid got sick on halloween. not BOO! but booooooooooo........
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nov. 1-----ya'll can all hate on me, cause my babies still slept until 8am today, despite the time change. i love them, i do love those babies. they are good to momma when it really counts. they know how much i despise getting up early.

Nov. 3-----troy tickles me when he watches TV in his chair. all he needs is a tiny bucket of KFC and the remote. his favorite is of course football.

Nov. 4-----my cat is in charge of me and that really bothers me

Nov. 5-----just another day in potty training paradise

Nov. 9-----took jenny for her first trip to play in "sandbox" today (at chester frost). how did she make it this long without ever playing in sand i don't know. poor girl didn't have a shovel --i got her a big scoop from the kitchen. finally took my camera with me somewhere. maybe i will be inspired to post pictures on here. its a rare occurrence

Nov. 13----i am scared. my dishwasher and washing machine are "talking" back. it must be the drains. it comes and goes. they are making noises like a coffee pot makes.

Nov. 14----getting things in order for our small group wieny roast tonight------woot woot! love a good fire and some marshmallows too!!!!!

Nov. 14----if you happened to be in soddy daisy today at 9am, and you also happened to be standing on my front porch, and you looked in my window.........you would have seen my girl
Jenny doing her business as usual behind the curtain. but THIS TIME, people, THIS TIME she was sitting on the POTTY !! thats right i said poo in THE POTTY not in the pants. talk about excitement. she gets to pick out a new doll at the toy store!!

Nov. 17----Fall means no bugs, no sweat, no sweltering heat. Not to mention the gorgeous leaves! My heaven will have fall weather

Nov. 19----dear Santa: all i want for Christmas is for grocery stores to PUUUULEEEEASE come
up with a new shopping buggy for those of us who have a giganto car seat in the main part of buggy!!! and a 2 yr old in the buggy seat!!! i need to get more than 1 bag of groceries, and that is all that i can cram in around poor Troy. although i am perfecting my skills. sometimes i raise his canopy and prop the bread up over his head.

Nov. 21----i have this bad habit of putting the trash on the back porch sometimes. if its stinky. then i forget to take it down to the can. and now tonight i have an unidentified large critter snuggled up inside the bag for a long winters nap. i was made aware of our visitor by Dee who was making his crazy noise while he gazed out the door.

Nov. 22----so this morning it was obvious our little visitor was gone b/c the trash bag was no longer intact and the trash was scatter around some. BUT guess who came back tonight and peered at me thru my back door while i was eating my pot roast?? jenny thought he was pretty great. he finally left the porch and jenny said he went home to his momma to get some food. he really wanted my pot roast.

Nov. 28----I believe in Auburn and love it !!!!

Nov. 30----is very excited that yesterday is over. jenny sick with fever all day and me wallering in headache agony all day. So glad Will was off work !! Now, what fun can we get into today?
