Hey Yall!!

Whats up??? I really have no idea what I was thinking. Why did I ever start a blog? I don't have time to blog!!!! LOL!

Well everything is going well at my house! Gavyn's top teeth are finally coming in, and he is as good as ever. He is really is a good boy. He is REALLY spoiled though, and you can tell it sometimes. He is crawling and pulling up on everything. He also puts everything into his mouth. He is my human vacuum!! LOL...also, his tests came out very good. He's not diabetic, YET! I hope it never affects his life. It is such a pain, just ask my mom.

My mom is having surgery on June 11. They are going in to drain the fluid and blood from behind her eyes. They told her that this surgery has a 95% chance of working. Then she shouldn't have any other problems. I pray that this will work. I can't even imagine being in her shoes right now. She is stronger then I will ever be.

Doug and I are great! We are preparing for Gavyn's 1st B-day. The theme is going to be John Deere. We live on a farm in the middle of no where. That's all hes ever been around is John Deere. Its just natural that-that's what the theme would be, right? LOL!! We've already gotten the decor and such. The plates and cups are so cute. They say "Happy 1st Birthday" on them. I also got him a hat that says something like "Its my 1st Birthday". It is just adorable!!

Well that's all pretty much it. We are getting a pool. I ordered it this week. I can't wait!! I wanted to get it for Gavyn's bday party, but then summer would be almost over! Why not get it now and then it will be ready for his party! Im excited about it and I think Doug is too. Gavyn is just not too crazy about water, so Im not sure how he will like it. Maybe he will like it before his party. That way he won't be all crazy and screaming then.

Well all....Im outta here.....bye, bye!!

My Lil Man is 9 months old!!!

Well everyone.....I am officially depressed. My lil man is 9 months old. I honestly hate even saying that. I don't want him any older!! He is GREAT the way he is. I don't know what Im going to do when he turns 18 and moves out...LOL! I know, I know....I say that now, but then I will be ready for him to move out. LOL, isn't that the way it goes?

Well this month he hasn't really done a whole lot. He has been pulling up more. He does like to be on his feet more then on his knees. That hard floor just kills his knees. Hes a BIG boy! His front two teeth still aren't in. You can kinda feel them breaking thru the skin, but they aren't OFFICIALLY in. Hes finally getting broke from biting, slapping and pinching. I was really worried we had a "hellian" on our hands there for a while. Im telling you....the biting and pinching back is starting to take a toll on him. He knows know!! His biggest milestone this month is.......He's drinking out of a straw! Yes, O Yes...My lil man is drinking from a straw. He loves it and I do too. It really has gotten so bad that we have to order him drinks at restaurants. That's ok though. Im glad he can do it. Its way better then spilling the drink all down the front of him!!

Well next Monday my lil man goes for his 9 month check up. I really am nervous. My husband and I have diabetes on both sides of our family. At this check up they are going to do blood work to look at normal things like his iron levels and junk on top of checking his sugar levels. They want to make sure that he isn't diabetic. I really hope that those levels are good. I will hate so much for my son to never be able to experience a normal lifestyle. Im sure it will be ok. Im going to be positive......things can always be worse!!

Tomorrow is finally Friday!! I am soooooo excited. It really hasn't been a long week, but Im ready for Saturday. Saturday is Doug's work banquet. I just want to dress up and spend some time with some adults for once in a REALLY, REALLY long time. Im not really excited about all of the people that will be there cause I don't really know them. But the few that I do know....Im ready!!

Well all, have a wonderful weekend!!!

My New Camera!!!!

I really have no idea what this pic is, but its my lil boy just smiling as big as he can!! LOL!

Heres a pic of Gavyn's two teeth. We are working on the top two now. They are almost thru the top!! Thank goodness!!!!!!

Well everyone, I found a new camera. I love it! Its very similar to my other one, but this one actually works!! LOL! Here's some new pics Ive taken with it. I hope you enjoy!!

It's Finally Friday......

Hey all, sorry for taking so long. I'm just not as good at this blog thing as I thought I would be. Oh, well. Maybe I will get better in the long run.

Well this week hasn't been the best, but its been tolerable. Monday and Tuesday were just like normal....I won't go into details!!

Wednesday I took my mom to her eye appointment. She had to have more laser surgery. She is going to have 4 this month. It really hurts her and makes her sick. I just hate it, but maybe in the long run it will help her eyes.

Also, on Wednesday Doug, Gavyn and I went to visit my dad. Its always interesting to go visit my dad. Him and his family are just so different then what I was raised. They are all just quiet and my family is loud and outspoken. My mom and dad got divorced when I was 2 and so I have just went to visit them like every other weekend since. That's why I say his family and then my family. Not that I don't think of them as my family, they just aren't immediate. They are really extended to me. O well. Anyway!! Gavyn seems to like them ok, especially since he don't see them as much as everyone else. Gavyn just kinda stares at them and gives them weird looks, but then he smiles at them so I guess that's good. We ended up coming home at like 9 and I was beat.

Thursday was an "ok" day. I started tanning. Thank goodness!! I don't think I could go to the lake or on our vacation if I didn't start tanning now!! LOL...Lets just say I'm white as white can be.

Gavyn was fussy all day on Thursday and his gums are swollen on top. I do believe he will be having two top teeth before long. He didn't sleep at all last night and I really hate those nights. The Dr says Gavyn should be sleeping all thru the night now, but there's no way. He does just wake up once or twice, but come on, Really??????? I don't know what to do to get him to sleep all night. He eats cereal, baby food, and a bottle before bed and he still gets hungry in the night. I wonder if there's a way to wean him of this.....hmmmmm? I will have to think on that.

Well today is finally Friday and I am sooooooooo happy!! I hope this is a relaxing weekend. Mom and I are going shopping tomorrow. I have to find something for Doug's banquet and I also want to look at cameras. My camera hasn't been right since Gavyn was born. That's why I don't have a lot of pics of him on here. I hope to find one this weekend. Well, so long!!!!!
