Well Hello.......

So its been a while since I have blogged. I actually had forgotten about it :( But I'm gonna try to change that now. Baby Ava is here and is almost 8 months old (it has been a while since my last post LOL) She is great and getting big along with the other kiddos.

Recently I have been trying out the whole coupon thing and LOVING it ! Its takes a lot of time that I was already short on but I'm gonna give it a  try. I will try and remember to start posting all my deals here. I have also been doing all kinds of free sample sign up. Which is pretty cool as well. I don't care what it is if its free I'm gonna order it LOL.

WOW baby ava has decided to lay on the artery in my back causing very high blood pressure and me having to lay on me left side or it goes up again im going nuts

the dentist......

      we have been trying to find a dentist that we liked and treated us all well and let us go back with the kids for years..... finally 6 months ago i found one.. so we went it... i already new my oldest I had some cavities, even though she was the one who was meticulous about her teeth. flossed, brushed , if she ate candy she brushed... and yes she had quite a few cavities. well the dr told us too hold off and see if they were getting worse or if maybe she could hold off since they were her baby teeth... we said ok ... since this dr uses lazers to numb the gum instead of needles and it was  alittle pricey...


      in the mean time ida hated the cavities , for someone who cared so much  about her teeth to have the few spots on them was awful.... so i went ahead and made her cleaning apt and then a couple days later made her apt for a few fillings..... we have a little extra money right now so we decided to get it done....


    well today was the day... daddy got off work early so he could take her and be in the room with her while she got everything done..... she did awesome... didn't cry or anything ..... i am so proud of her.... in a couple weeks she goes in to have a couple on the other side of her mouth done and i'm pretty sure that they went ahead and sealed her permanent molars she already had in too... 
anyways... i'm so proud of her she is turning into such a beautfiul young lady its funny how much of a difference in age and maturity there is between her  and E  with there only being a years difference in age... it amazes me....

papaws visit

       so my dad and his wife came to town lastnight and stayed the night.... as soon as they got here B who has only met my dad a few times and i woudlnt' think woudl remember him very welll, knew exactly who he was... i love that.... my dad is the kind of grandpa who gets on the floor and plays with the kids and picks them up and swings them and runs around the back yard with them even though hes a smoker and it kills him... LOL.... i just wished he lived here or was able to visit more...  
    shortly after my dad arrived we went to walmart to buy the kids each a fishing pole...( we were planning on going fishing today although the weather did not agree.... ) when we got back from walmart dad put the practice piece on their fishing poles and they went in the backyard to practice casting... the girls did wonderful... B didn't really have the hang of it but he also grabbed a fishing pole that was a little too big....  since the weather did not agree  with us today and tomorrow is supposed to be much better we are going to go to my sisters house where my dad is now and fish in the pond behind her house... i am very excited as well as the kids.... i havent' been fishing in forever and use to go all the time with my dad when i was  a little girl :)
ok enough rambling... i've had a very busy couple of days and i'm going to bed :)

oh the fun i had today :)

     so today started off with a headache but thats nothing new..... LOL.... after b and i dropped off the girls to school this morning we were hanging watching some pbs kids and he was just being the cutest snuggliest thing in the world.... i love when hes like that.... and he does the cutest little expressions... i can't believe how grown my kids are.... the girls are starting to read and write and b's turning into a regular little man...  :) 

    well, after picked up e i was folding some clothes trying to prepare for my dads visit on friday ....  i thought b and e were in the bedroom watching a movie.... WELL apparently i was wrong b had first of all pooped in his pants and then decided to play in it and rub it in the carpet.. oh yes... and i was already feeling queasy this morning... so i put him in the bath and cleaned him up and then was off to clean up the carpets..... b comes up to me after i'm finished and am back to folding clothes and says " i sorry momma" how cute is that... i wasn't really mad i dont' think i even yelled or anything .... he tends to do this a lot so i just clean it up and move on... although it totally grosses me out... 

 i recall both the girls doing it once when taking their diapers off but not like him.. must be  a boy thing... LOL

    both the girls came up to me when going to bed and gave me  a hug and kiss and then both at the same time on either side of my tummy kissed it.. and said it was for the baby... it was sooo cute...

    ok i think b's asleep and i really need to get some more done tonight ... the hubbys off tomorrow and we have tons of running around to do :)

a little pregnancy rant

    ok for whatever reason with this final pregnancy i have had way more issues than the rest...nothing huge... just minor things that are a pain in my butt.....
i have been getting so many dang pimples its ridiculous.... i was also getting fever blisters.. real big ones on my lips.... right now the main thing is pimples.. big pimples that hurt bad and last forever ... my hubby jokingly and lovingly calls me the freak show and says that can be my wrestling name when i wrestle the big show... LOL....  no it doesn't bother me nor do i get mad because hes only joking... and he knows i'm still hot. LOL   anyways... so they are all over my face especially right in between my eyebrows... its great and the other day i found one on my back and after i got out of the bath there was one on my neck... really ?? my neck..... geez....

     also i have been so much more tired than with the others..... by afternoon i'm so tired i can barely keep my eyes open... and my boobs... they are already 3x's the size of my pre baby ones and all the saggy skin from the other three pregnancys are filled in... i know i know too much info... but its awful.. i'm not one of those women who wants big boobs... i woudl prefer my pre kids ones but those are lost forever so i want my old saggy ones back LOL


    lets see what else... the nausea isnt' as bad but i still get it and it sucks.... and my sinuses are always full grrrrr.....

    i am 13 weeks tomorrow and i can not wait to find out what we will be having... can't wait.... will it be ava jane or micheal christopher????    i also can't wait till i start feeling my little one move.. i can feel little flutters but i love feeling my little one inside moving around.. best feeling in the world... aside from holding them in your arm that first time :)
