I was a matchup instawinner!


Well I finally entered in my game pieces and I won an instawinner coupon good at any of 6 services locations. Whooohooo! I never win things!

Here is Ashley in her bumble bee costume that she HAD to put on. She tried on her cow one also and loved them both.
I have my first OB appointment in the morning so I will finally have a due date...

things are calming down here....

Well finally things are calming down here.

Mike fixed the Ford and now it is running fine again. Plus the new alternator that he put in has a lifetime warranty. So if the darn thing goes out again, we get a free replacement and Mike already knows how to install it!

Mike broke the door handle on the Toyota so now it looks pretty trashy. We have to order a new part to replace it. But it is rigged right now so you can still open it from the outside so at least that works.

Our puppy Macy is finally getting the hang of potty training. Ahhh, I hate potty training! But hopefully she will finish up her "training" soon so I don't have to deal with anymore "uh oh's"!

Oh and the pregnancy. I think I am about 11-12 weeks along right now. I have to wait until the 30th for my OB appointment to find out for sure. So it looks like I missed most of the 1st trimester without even knowing I was preggo. So I am feeling good with very little morning sickness or anything else.

My sweet darling Ashley got into mommy's twix candy bar yesterday while I was cooking dinner. I thought, hmm it's too quiet, and went to go check on her and she was sitting on the couch with her face covered in melted chocolate. She wasn't good enough to get that candy bar completely out of the wrapper so she insisted on sucking on the wrapper which made a huge melty mess. What a dear! And then at the same time I turned around and Macy had stolen a roll of TP and shredded it all over the carpet. Wonderful!!!!

Ahh, I hate FORDS!!!!

Ahh I hate our FORD! I will never again buy one!!!!! Our Focus is a 2002 and just hit 30,000 (well 32,162 to be exact) and guess what....On our drive into town yesterday our battery idiot light came on. We took it to Sears (cause no one else is open on Sundays in GF) and our alternator is going out. What, our alternator! Ugh, Sears wanted to charge over 400.00 for new one and installation. Nope, don't think so. We went and ordered a new part from the auto store (168.00) and Mike is going to do it himself. I just cant believe that they can be so crappy! My poor toyota is a 97 and the only work I have had to do to the darn thing is a replace a flat tire (my fault) , and put in a new battery (also my fault for parking it all summer long in the garage and never starting it up)! Our next vehicle will be either a honda or toyota, no more of this made in the USA (well part of it b/c our ford is made in Mexico and assembled here)AHHHH, cars, I hate them~!
