My Pumpkin Babies...


October is tomorrow and I couldnt be more excited. I have already done my Halloween shopping and decorating. Due to the fact that the month of October consist of Birthdays,Anniversarys,Homecoming,Parties and Moving. I take my kids to the Pumpkin Patch every year. I figured this time I would get a head start while no ones out.Which was good. We went to the Pumpkin Patch in Pearland where we usually go. No one was there so we were able to have the punkins all to ourselves..Our trip didnt last long due to my wild son. Who is still learning to poop in the toilet, had an accident. haha . Talk about ruin the time. So we had to rush out. The pics I got were pretty good though. Once I started messing with them at home. Of course, I dont have the good programs to edit so I use what I have. Which isnt too bad . I think they came out really good. I just wish I could had gotten one with all 4 of us. Soon though I hope. We will return soon to take the kids in their costumes. But for now here's what I got. I like them. Everyone else seems to too.. So ENJOY! Happy Fall....


This one cracks me up!!




It was hard to get this boy to sit in one spot longer than one pic..


Hays always ready for a picture.. She's a natural!


My favorite one..


and last. A pic by Hailey.. She is getting to be good at this. I think she gets it from me!!! :)

Proud Big Sister Here!.....





Well I guess its time for me to hop back on the blogging wagon. Things have been so crazy lately. But now I have lots to say .lol . Every Friday night now has been busy. Brayden( my youngest brother) plays Football for Dobie! He is a Senior this year! Cant believe it. Bray and I have never really gotten along. But this time I feel it's time to make it different. I am at every game this year for him.Not only is it fun but makes me happy to see him do so well. GO #80!



I support my brothers in all they do and hope they keep up the good work. Unfortunetly, I didnt get to live the life they are. Football,partying and College life. I am very proud of them all.Bobby will be graduating this December from TEXAS STATE. The boy couldnt stay away from Football,so he's going to be a Coach. :) Very proud of him. He's my little bro but I see him as my older brother. He's always protected me like any brother would. He loves my kids more than life and thats a great feeling. His heart his open and always willing to give to others. He makes me very proud. Im glad he chose the right path in life and I admire him very much for that. I know he's going to succeed in all he does.And some day finally make me a freaking AUNT! But for now he has his stink butt neice and nephew!



My Sporty a*k*a Blake... That's the crazy one. This kids is beyond words. haha. Sport and I have always had a fun brother n sis relationship. If I ever need a laugh I know exactly who to go too. We quote every show that we can make fun of. Daisy of Love, Pretty Lil Liars,Jersey Shore. You could only imagine. The kids out of whack. He loves Tortillas like candy. Little things make him happy like fruit snacks,oatmeal and granola bars. Although the boy can argue .lol He can be anal about stuff too. But thats what makes him Sporty. Watching him with my kiddos is hilarious too.They have great times. Sport just left to TEXAS STATE to join Bob and Monica. I miss him. Yet very proud of him too. I know he's gonna do great!



To the baby.Brayden.. Like I said it's been battle with me and him. Maybe cuz were both hard headed. This year I think Bray has started to realize alot about life and learning from it. I am proud of him and hope he knows. I support him at every game. Hay and I have our shirts made just for him. The kids love to watch him.Not to mention he's playing his heart out on that field. Bray has become really close to a kid at school that is special and taken him under his wing. He helps to protect him and treats him like a true friend. Some people arent as fortunate as others and Bray is giving back to this kid and it makes me happy to see him do this. Im hoping this Senior year is his best and for him to go join the Boys next year. All though Bobby will be gone,Sport will still be there. Keep it up Bray...



So as I have said. I am proud of my brothers and all their becoming to be. I hope they all keep up the good work and continue to make us proud. All though I never got a Sister, I wouldnt trade my baby bros for the world. I hope my kids will have the same great times and memories me and these boys did.... :)

Cancer Sucks.. Bryson Rocks..


There is no words that would describe the feeling you get when you hear that your child has "Cancer". Im sure your Heart would sink to your stomach. Well for my friend, Stephanie Watkins, it has happened to her. Stephanie has a 2 year old son named Bryson, who was diagnosed with Leukemia as a baby. This little boy is a fighter. He has just finished his Chemo treatment and had his Stem Cell Transplant.
Even when he's feeling his worst he tries his best. I have yet to meet Bryson,but I have seen pictures of him. When you look at him you know your looking at the most precious angel ever. I pray for little Bryson and his family every night. Stephanie has been through so much with him and it must be so hard knowing theres only so much you can do to try and help your baby. She is very strong for Bryson. I coudlnt even imagine how I would be able to deal with it all. But the main thing you have to do is Fully Rely on God. He is your #1 key. Power of prayer is whats making this family survive this hard time.
*I pray to God every night that he keeps my children safe through their lives. Losing my kids is the biggest fear of my life. No parent shoudld ever have to lose their children or have to deal with such a huge situation like this.But for some reason God has his plan and he chose Bryson to be his little fighter. He will beat this and when its all over there will be so much praise and happiness in this familys life.*
They have created a Facebook page for Bryson along with a website.*BRYSONROCKS.COM*
It has his story, pictures,videos and ways to help donate. Last night Chilis Southpoint did a 10% Give back night to Bryson. We attended to show our support for their family. Steph is not able to work due to Bryson being kept at the TX Childrens
Hospital in the Med Center. So this was going to help them with their financial situation. I have always been a big supporter of St. Judes since I worked with Chilis, so this also was a big deal for me. I posted as much as I could to get people to go out there.I cant wait to hear how much they actually had raised for the night.
We also bought our "Cancer Sucks..Bryson Rocks" bracelets.. We love em...

If you would like to purchase one you can do so on his website. They have all the information on everything that is going on.
Their also having another donation event on Saturday the 28 at the Krogers parking lot on the Beltway in Sagemont. It will be from 10am to 4pm. So anyone reading who lives in our area, I highly encourage you to come show your support. We will be attending as well. I pray that Bryson and his family overcome this bump in the road that they are going through. Please become a fan of Bryson and show your support..
God Bless this sweet Angel...

Nanny turns 90.....


90 years ago my Great Grandmother was born in the Netherlands.. 26 years ago I was brought into this world and she was there to hold me and know the joy of becoming a GREAT Grandmother.. My NANNY! She is the most beautiful person inside and out. She celebrated her 90th birthday yesterday with family and friends. I thought when we celebrated her 80th,"Wow". After celebrating yesterday its just so GREAT! She has seen so much in this life and it amazes me how strong she still is. She lives on her own and loves to watch Wrestling on Payperview every Mon and Sun nite. Watching her eyes fill with tears as we sang Happy Birthday to her brought joy to my heart and tears down my face. I hugged her and she whispered to me" THank you, I love you sweetie,THank you thank you for making me a GREAT GREAT Grandmother to my beautiful babies, I love you!" Those words will forever play in my head. This was a moment I will forever hold in my heart. The joy of her saying this to me was like giving birth to my children all over again. Life is so precious and she takes it that way.She would never turn anyone away. She welcomes strangers with open arms. Every person she meets is like she has known them forever.How do we get so lucky to be blessed with people like her in our lives? She is truly an Angel sent from God. I hope I live to be at least half the woman she is and give all the love she has to her family and friends. She is so loved by everyone.
As I walked into her house yesterday I was ovewhelmed with how many flowers and cards she had recieved. Dozens of flowers everywhere and cards lined up all over walls and shelves. Everyday she has atleast 1 visitor. Thats how loved she is. Everyone wants to be around her. I wish I had more time to see her and I will make it now. Time is so precious and I will forever treasure this time I have with her. I hope to see another 10 years and watch her blow out that 100 candle.:) Happy Birthday Nanny.. I love you!

Lets try this again....

So I started this Jillian Michaels workout programs a few weeks back. I was doing really good on it until my dumb knee decided to give out on me again and put me behind. Right now I weigh about 130..Well the last time I checked.. My goal is to get around 120 again. I have got to target this extra baby fat in my belly and this nasty cellulite that has built up in my legs. EEkk gross I know... Im only 25 and I dont wanna let myself go. So Im going to try to do it this time. On Monday I picked up this Jillian Michaels 14 day Cleanse and Program pills. So far so good. 2 caplets in the morning and 2 in the evening with water for 7 days. Then you go to the Fat burning pills. Im going to start running ( hopefully) and more sit ups. Maybe that will pick up the process. I feel less bloated taking these and my jeans actually fit better today. This is day 3 so far. I think having that food poisoning helped me shed a few too.. hahah... I hope..

But we will see how this goes.. I will try my hardest to keep up with this.. Wish me luck and we will see how far I go... I feel its working and I recommend it. It comes with a money back guarantee if you feel it doesnt work.. Wont hurt to try and maybe shed a few..

Lets try this again......

My New Camera...Finally

So Daniel finally caved in and got me a nice DSLR camera.. A Sony! I love it.. I have waited forever to get one.. So worth it.. We got it right before we left to our trip to Sea World. I have always loved photography. I took a class in high school and my dream was that after high school Jennifer Muniz and I would move to New York. She wanted to do Fashin Design and I was gonna be the Photographer. Well it didnt work that way. I got Hailey instead. LoL. Which that worked for me . Her and J are now my little models. I love taking pictures of them and any other times that can capture a great memory. I m going to try and learn a little more on how to work it a little more. I would like to get a good photoshop program too. It will all work our later. Im still deciding if I am going to go to school for Web Design or not, so maybe this will point me in my direction in some sort of way. Im hoping. But for now this is all for the fun and memories...
Here's a few pics I have taken with the camera.. Did some photoshopping with Photobucket since its all I got for now.. So Enjoy!!

*My Hay Bug is 6 *

I cant believe I know have a 6 year old who will be a 1st grader in just a few weeks. It feels as if just yesterday is was July 23, 2004. I was 19 years old and becoming a mother to this gorgeous little baby girl. That day was so scary with all the complications I had but so worth it for her.
Everyday she amazes me how smart she is. I really have no idea where I would be without her and I couldnt even really imagine it. I think I missed out on alot with my friends and such. But I grew up pretty fast and it was worth it. She helped me realize the meaning of life. I realize know the meaning of True Love. The love my parents always told me that they felt for me. It's great.This little girl loves me more than the stars in the sky. As I feel the same for her. I love to take pictures of Hailey. She is so photogenic and she loves the camera.Every year I take some sorts of pictures of her for her birthday. This year I had a friend of mine take a few , which came out AMAZING! Thanks to Mrs. Ashley Cochrane. Here is a few of her 3rd, 4th, 5th and the 6th... Happy Birthday Hay Bug!!

Here's to Good Times...


I love to take pictures of my kids and have fun! I dont think I go a day without taking some kind of photo.. It s usually mostly of my crazy kids. I think having a blog about life and my kids will be fun... We will see how it goes. Im not as creative as my "future" sis in law Monica.. lol But I guess I will try... So heres to the good times!!!
