Fav Foto Friday

Jalena before school, Mommy gave her a toothbrush so she can try to keep her busy and happy so she can finish getting ready brushing her teeth.

Again!

Jalena slept through the night again! Wooo whooo!!!

Soo excited!

I have offically booked our vacation! We are going to:

Disney World!! I am sooooo excited! lol....WE are leaving Sunday March 1st and returning Wednesday March 4th.

Please.Please.Please

UPDATE 1/30/09: Tuesday passed away today. Please continue to pray for the family for peace and strength.

Please pray for this family and beautiful Tuesday:



This Mom just found out today that her daughters cancer doubled in size, and is horribly aggressive and no longer chemo sensitive.

I could never imagine.

Please PRAY!

She did it!

It worked!! Jalena slept through the night!!!! Wow! lol...But I think the couch is going to look pretty comfortable for the next few nights, not really, I will be seeing the chiropractor later today! But in fear that she will wake and see me! I'm so proud of my princess!! This is probably the 5th time in her whole life! (15 months) that she has slept through the night! 9:00 pm-6:50 am! wooo whoo!

C.I.O. Update Night #2

So last night Jalena went to sleep around 9:00. I slept on the couch, alllllll night! :-) She woke up around 12:30, cried for 5 minutes, then went back to sleep till I woke her up at 6:45! Huge improvement, obviously because she didn't see Mommy in the bed next to her, and scream for me to pick her up! Hopefully tonight is just as good!!

C.I.O.

So my soon to be 15 month old daughter still doesn't sleep throught the night. She has recently been waking up 3 times a night. And WILL NOT go back to sleep unless she has a full (10oz.) bottle of milk. With that being said, my daughter DOES NOT need 30oz. of milk in the middle of the night, So last night she went to sleep at 8:30 then was up at 11:30, and would not go back to sleep. Finally I put her in her crib, and went to the couch (We share a room). Now, let's just say that she cursed me out for a good 30 minutes. So tonight is offically night 2 of C.I.O Yes, I did just say that (insert sad face here) I have the video monitor set up, so I can watch her all night long, of if she's crying too long, I can go rescue her.

Does anyone have any good night time tips? We both need sleep.

Random pic.

So this weeks random pic challenge is brought to you by.....

Contest Anyone?

So..I was feeling rather crafty tonight, and went up to Michaels, the craft store....And decided to make a hair clip holder. I made one for Jalena and one for my best friends daughter, Kaylee. Here is the finished product:

It was so much fun making them! lol..Painting made me feel like a kid again. I was actually thinking of having a little contest nothing MckMama size, just something small, and was going to giveaway some babylegs, that have gone unopened...but now I'm thinking of having a contest and I can make one of these for your little one's hair bows, or if you don't have a girl..then maybe for someone you know? What do you all think? Anyone in? If I have enough people who will participate, say like 5-10.Of course the more, then better, but I'm saying 5-10 because well, I don't have much blogging buddies! lol ...then It's a go.. Let me know, and I will think of what kind of contest to have to give away one of these adorable clip holders!

My daughter.

Soo yesterday I got another lovely phone call from Jalenas school. It was 9:25am, I dread any phone call from the school. I knew it was either she was sick, or she got hurt and they called just to inform me. NOPE! Neither. She recently has picked up on a wonderful behavior. Biting! Yes, my daugher bites. This was the second time in 3 weeks, the first time I was hysterical..yesterday not so bad. Just disapointed. They call me to tell me, she went up to another kid, who was doing nothing to her, and bit her on the hand. They redirected her told her "NO Biting!" and she got "time out". After some thinking, I think I am going to request to see the tape from yesterday morning, to see what really happened. Not that I think my child is perfect like her Mommy and could not do this, but I need to confirm that my child really is a Pit bull, and recognize my fears that she is not the Princess I think she is!

Really, I know children do bite, and it's a stage. But I would like to see it for my own eyes.

Signature

I'm moving up in the blogging world! Now I have a signature!! lol

41 Degrees!

This morning as we left the house it was 41 degrees and freezing! Espically when we are used to 85 degree weather! It was soo nice! Here is Poo in the morning when we were leaving for school!

And this is after school, when we got home!!

Please Pray!

There are a few babies that need our prayers. Here are their blogs, please pray.

Not Me! Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

I did not start potty training my 14 month old! And she did not go pee pee on the potty 2x's already!

I certainly am not about to go shopping on Target.com just because I didnt have time to go to the actual store this weekend, and won't have the time until next weekend!

I did not have a girls night out on Friday for my BFF's birthday, then eat leftover birthday cake for breakfast on Saturday morning.

I did not go to Lion Country Safari on Sunday and almost pee in my pants at how close I was to these animals!














And last, I did not have a wonderful weekend! and enjoy my time with my princess sooo much!

Baby? or Big girl?

Today was such a fun afternoon! I picked up J from school, we stopped by my friends house to say hi! Then came home had dinner, then colored! Here is J hard at work!


Tonight after bath time!

So while I was Christmas shopping I came across something that I knew would be valuable for us in the next few months. I decided to take it out now, to get Jalena used to it. I now show you her new favorite "toy":

She loves to sit on it, I always let her sit for a few minutes before bath time, and yesterday she even went pee-pee! :-) So now I ask, baby or big girl?

Productive weekend.

We had a great weekend! Very productive! Friday I picked J up from school and we hung out outside all afternoon playing, although when she kept trying to run into the street I decided to take her to the park.


We went to the park @ 5:30, at 5:40 the Park Ranger closed the park, I was very upset and protested that the park didn't close till 5:45, and we still had 5 minutes, needless to say..I didn't win! So we left, and Daddy came over.

One of Jalenas favorite foods:: CARROTS! I told Jalena let's go sit in your highchair, we can put the carrots on your chair, and that is exactly what she did! lol




One very excited little girl, to be eating her veges!

Jalena's new obsession...

ICE!

Only problem is when she is eating it, we go through alot of shirt changes!

Saturday afternoon Kristen and I took the girls to get icees...here they are! Best Friends like their Mommys!

Oh, I hit publish and forgot to mention, my highlight of the weekend, I got to sit at the Dr's again, on Saturday morning! J has another ear infection :-(

Have a great week!

My princess cheesin'! lol....so cute!

I hate the flu!

So Jalena was home throwing up Monday, yesterday I worked till 6, and my Mom picked up J from school. I was 2 minutes away from my house, and my mom calls me to say she is thowing up. 20 minutes after I get home, its my turn! I was up all night vomiting. Then this morning my sister and dad get sick. This flu totally stinks, its so nasty!

Bad day, Good Night!

Sooo yesterday I was really sick, so I decided to send Jalena to school, go to the doctor, then go home and rest all day. So thats just what I did. Except I got to have my little princess at home with me! Just as I got home from the doctor, I got a call from her school saying she was throwing up! So I rushed to get to her, took her home, and took good care of her! She threw up a few times, but with a nap and some Pedialyte she was Allllll better! As for me, I felt better too!

Now, for the good part!.................................................................................................................................

Jalena slept from 7:30 pm- 6:00am!! did not get up once!! I of course did, checked on her about 5 times, but she finally slept through the night, now lets see if this is just a fluke or if she can do it again tonight!!

Not Me! Monday

Early edition.

I am not sick and feel like crapola!
I did not take Nyquil 1 hour ago, and am not wondering why the heck am I still awake?!
I did not stay in bed all day today!
I did not go to the mall yesterday with hopes to buy myself something, and only find things for the princess!
I did not get what felt like 50 tweets in a row from MckMama on New Years eve, and get accused of my "boyfriend" texting me, by my boyfriend!
I did not set a New Years resolution to start my diet on Fri, only to tell myself to start on Monday, and I am not freaking that tomorrow is Monday!

Now its your turn, head over to http://www.mycharmingkids.net/2009/01/not-me-monday.html and then do your Not Me!

Christmas.New Years eve.

Long time no post!! lol.WE have been very busy, and I finally have a chance to update everyone!
Our Christmas was great! Jalena got too many toys! lol, Santa was very good to her! I'm a little upset though, I didn't get many pics, for some reason I was more concerned about getting everything on the camcorder. Even though that battery died 20 minutes into our 5 hour gift opening!


Here is Jalena checking out the tree..she was obsessed with the ornaments!

Her new favorite thing: BOOKS!The dollar section at Tar-jay does wonders!lol

Christmas day:dressed for dinner, then the movies!

She loves her new horse! It's cute..it interacts with the tv!

One of her favorites! Her princess table. In which she gets the chairs taken away daily, you ask why? See pic below!

Don't mind the mess, we haven't yet learned the "One toy out at a time" rule!

Another favorite...her princess tent! It's also Giga the cat's favorite, too!

Jumping on the horse!

Then it was New Years eve, Daddy and I went to Hollywood beach, walked down the strip looking for a restaurant to eat at! WE gave up after finding Joe's Pizza...in which was prob the 4th pizza place we saw out of all 7 restaurants we passed! Here is us in the car...

Mommy, before we left!

So that's it! Hope everyone had a good Christmas, and have a Happy and Prosperous new year!
