I can't take it ANYMORE!!

If you wondering why I am so emotional and alot bigger... well.. our families calendar's are marked for Sept 30th! Yep you guessed it... FINALLY we're having another baby :)
McGuire is really excited! the baby has to be awake when he is awake.. When I get upset with him he tells me not to make to baby sad (then he starts crying). He has to kiss it goodnight and good morning everyday. I'm so happy he somewhat understands why mom is getting so big!
I'm about 15 weeks along, and boy does it show. :) We are all really excited, but not excited for the LONG HOT summer that lies ahead.

AWESOME NEWS!

That duplex I have told you about... well! We GOT IT! Mov in date is May 1st! What a great way to start the summer! Now the next step is to get some furniture! We had to let a few things go when we moved to my parents (sad for Taylor, yay for me) If any of you know about garage sales, good store deals going on, LET ME KNOW! I'm in the market!

Anyways, that some good news for you on a great friday! Hope everyone has a great conference weekend!

Good News and Hopefully good news!

Good News.....
April 24th, 2008 Taylor and I got married... then we had a falling out and got divorced 17 months later. We are tying the knot again on April 24th 2012!! Now don't be offended that you didn't get invited, theres no party, reception or anything.. Since April 24 is on a Tuesday, we're going on our lunch break and saying our I do's and then going back to reality. Basically we need to renew our marriage license. :) For our honeymoon, Supercross baby! Not enough money to do anything else, pretty magical huh!?!

Now for Hopefully good news.....

So we are finally getting to the point of possibly moving out of my parents house! I know we're thrilled and I know my parents are too (no hard feelings here!)
There are some duplexes my dad built for a friend way back in the day and they are so nice. They are a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 car CARPORT (we can't complain, at least they are covered!) The duplex will be available May 1st, we put our application in for it and I keep having dreams about living in it... so maybe thats a good sign?!? Keep us in your prayers so we get it!!! Hopefully we'll get good news soon!

Movie Critic Time

If I was a movie critic.....
I would have given the Hunger Games a good 4 1/2 out of 5 stars.... It was probably the best movie I have seen in a while. They kept to the book closer then other movies, it had some comedy, some love moments, and I will admit I cried 3 times in the movie, ( I myself am no cryer when it comes to movies).
Taylor was so cute and had me update him on what was going on, some of the things you knew cuz of the book. Taylor only heard the book when I told him about a great part. So he was a little lost.

They missed out of a few things, but I mean you can only cramm in so much in a movie time. The Actors were a great pick and Hit the charactristics of each one PERFECTLY!
One thing I will add... Do NOT sit by little 12 year olds, they will make you want to lean over to them and tape their mouths shut. And don't give them a HUGE bucket of popcorn.. It will spill all over you too!

The Thanksgiving pointe Theater is AWESOME! Dinner and a movie in one place! Its pretty awesome, and you can eat it in there, during the movie!

Happ Hunger Games, and may the odds be ever in your favor. ( I know dorky, just go with it)

YAY! So Exciting!

Last night Hunger Games the movie came out in theaters, I was really bummed that I couldn't go that night.. and that I most likely will not be able to go this weekend due to not have a babysitter.... Well my sweet hubby pulled some strings and got us a sitter, so we get to go watch a movie I have been WAITING for, for like 3 months! Thanks babe! YAY for tonight! If any of you have seen it, GREAT job! If not well I'll give you my feedback.

Have a great weekend!

Just a thought

I believe in weird stuff sometimes... so bare with me, I have to just share my thoughts :)

Close to 5 years ago my best friend was taken from us here on earth, it was the hardest time in my life to go through. It made a huge transformation in my life. I moved back home, lost a job that was awesome, lost my identity again, went into major depression.....

Ever since that day of misery and loss, I have dreams of her... I believe that she can communicate with whoever she wants thru dreams. Some dreams we are at a diner, with all our friends; other times we are just in her room, or my car (where we would always be) She always has great words of wisdom for me, words of support, inspiration and love. It is always what I need to hear during the time. I just think its such a blessing that something like that can happen. It always puts such a comfort in my heart to know that she is still here with us in spirit, and she really is looking over the people she loves. What a blessing!
Just a thought for the day and a way for me to vent!
Thanks for listening..

Good News!

After a long time of driving, hestitating, discussing and deciding.... We BOUGHT a car! No Financing or anything, it is straight up ours!! I'm so excited about this decision cuz it was a STEAL! Ken Garff Nissan is the place to shop for cars by the way! My expericence there was so good, I would just go back to say hello! They have Massage Chairs, a play room for McGuire , which he absolutely loved! AND free POPCORN! Lol I know I always enjoy the little things!
Our Sales Guy, Billy, was so nice and awesome to us, he made sure we got a great deal! Drum roll please......

2005 Chevy Colbalt, not as big as i wanted (i wanted an SUV or something like it) but this really was such a good deal I couldn't pass it up. It has 117,000 miles and only got it for under $4,000! Automatic Everything, CRUISE CONTROL..... Need I say more. Seriously, it was awesome, now Taylor and I argue on who is going to drive it to work and stuff... lol. But we are so happy about this transaction in our life! So you;ll be seeing us in this fancy car for a while :)

Looking for a Vehicle!

So its come to my attention that I need to get a new vehicle of some kind. Preferrably a SUV/Truck, that includes 4 wheel drive or all wheel drive. And under 5,000.00 :) I know impossible right?!? I totally agree, but I think the impossible is possible sometimes. So if anyone knows or sees a vehicle that is for sell, reasonably nice and safe for my little family. Let me know. I'm on the look out :)
Thanks!

New pics

Lately its been an eventful month! On news Years Day we had a tractor come to our house and take a wood burning stove off our hands, McGuire LOVED IT! He wouldn't let the poor guy go with out letting him ride in the tractor first lol!

MJ didn't like that I was taking pictures lol

1st Family pic of 2012

January is the season of ward basketball to start! Taylor and I love it cuz its something to look forward to other then work. McGuire loves it cuz he can play for a minute then cheer us on while we play! Of Course he gets REALLY frustrated by not being able to play with all the dads out there. But he learns to watch and cheer!



This is McGuire giving Taylor a thumbs up while yelling "Way to go Dad!" about 5 different times. McGuire had to dress up like the team, so he put on a jersey.

Here's a better pic of the jersey! Cute huh!

Last weekend we went to the Auto Expo, it was more for Taylor and my dad. But we all went for the ride. It ended up being really fun and entertaining. Tow Matar was there from cars, and Mcguire was so excited to see him! We had to get a picture with him!

Mcguire also had to sit in a couple of cars as well! He got mad that he couldn't drive it drive it. Now he tells me, "Mom, I want to drive today, can I drive the jeep?" I say, "Well buddy, in about 13 years I'll let you drive it around." He slumps his shoulders and then says in a quiet muffle, " ok mom."

It makes me laugh everytime we get the conversation going. He says the darnest things! Can you believe ONLY 13 more years and he'll be driving! Time better slow down!

Here is McGuire in a 2012 MUSTANG GT!





Potty POWER!!!!

WE DID IT!!!!

McGuire is Fully potty trained!!! I no longer have to hassle him, bribe him or even force him to go potty!! It took a lot of us to do get the job done. But we are now free to let him be a big boy!!!

This is such a big deal, now we can save $$$ on Diapers!!! YAY!!! I never realized how much they really were til I had extra cash in my wallet after I got done with the store!

Congrats McGuire for being such a big boy! Now I got to do my end of the deal and get him a motorcycle! :s (I'm in a pickle i think lol)
