WOW! Feb. 17th was the last post that I made!!! I think it's over due for me to update!
My sweet SWEET boy is fixing to be 9 months old? Can you believe that? I can't!!!
He is now crawling and getting into everything! He says Mama and Baba! Yep, he STILL isn't saying Dada... it eats at daddy but I think it's so funny! ;) I'm just starting the new journey of Cloth diapering and it's actually not as bad as one might think! It's actually fun! I love the cute diapers! And it's come a long way from back in the day, not that I know what it was like, but I do know that they didn't have inserts that you can just throw away! lol! He still has no teeth, which is perfectly fine with me..lol, but we have our 2 bottom ones that won't be long before making their appearance! Ok, I'll update some more later! :)

Sick Baby.... He stopped breathing....
Sunday night by sweet boy Mason started to get a cough, poor baby, and by Monday morning he was so stopped up that he would spit his milk out when he ate because he couldn't breathe. :(
I called into work and told them that I wouldn't be coming in because Mason was sick. And what do you know, right when I hung up the phone he gave me a BIG grin!!! I said boy if your starting that now, I don't want to know what your going to be like when you start school and REALLY play sick!! haha!!! He wasn't playing though, he really did feel bad.
Mason isn't the type of baby to just lay around and be lazy, he wants you to talk to him and play with him, he just get bored to easy... BUT, the past two days he will just lay there and look around with spaced out eyes because he is so wore out from being sick, poor baby!!!
Anywho, I took him to the doctor Monday and they gave me some meds. to give him for his cold and told me to bring him back if his fever got really high or if he got worse. Well Monday night he got REALLY bad, I mean you couldn't suck out enough snot (sorry..lol) for him to be able to breathe... it was never ending.... and because of that he stopped breathing on me twice!!!!!!!!!!! I was actually really calm and just shook him (not hard) and blew in his face and said "breathe baby breathe". He started screaming and I was SOOOOO relieved!!! For a mom to see that, ah, you go into extreme mommy mode I guess and it's just a reaction to make them breathe... it was scary!!!
Needless to say, I didn't get any sleep that night and he slept on my chest while I sat on the couch and watched him!!! So Tuesday he starts running a really high fever and starts to throw up... I bring him to the doctor and he gives him antibiotics and says that he has a really bad sinus infection because his flu test came back negative!!! Thank goodness!!!
So we have a cool mist humidifier going, vicks plug-ins, baby vicks, his meds. and pedialite for him!!! He seems to be a little better today, not running a fever and he isn't throwing up anymore!!! But you can tell that he doesn't feel good and he just isn't himself!!! He just lays there and screams if you're not holding him, but right when you pick him up he's out like a light, poor baby!!!
Anyways, All he needs is to be in his mama's arms and he seems a million time better!!! It makes me feel really really good!!!
That's me and my life until next time! :)

A trip down Pregnancy Lane...continued...
At about 9 week pregnant I got so sick that I had to be put in the hospital for dehydration, yuck! I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sick, I had the worst morning sickness, I had to be put on nausea meds. that they put chemo patients on, it was horrible!!! Finally at about 17 weeks or so I wasn't sick anymore!!! Thank goodness!!! That, was the best feeling I have EVER felt after beeing dog sick for 13 weeks!!!
I think being sick in the beginning made up for everything at the end though!!!! I had a great great GREAT pregnancy!!! The day I went in to have Mason, I could have walked 5 miles!!! I mean don't get me wrong, my back ached like every other 9 month pregnant woman in the world, but nothing that would stop after rubbing it for a couple of mins!!! My feet did swell towards the end and my blood pressure would get kinda high every now and then!!! But it wasn't anything big!
The best part of being pregnant though is not having period and even better feeling the baby move!! I loved to lay in bed and play with Mason while he was moving around!!!
One more thing, I had a great support group not only from my friends and family, but from WTE Ladies!!! If your pregnant go to www.whattoexpect.com and under community you can find the month your due and talk with other ladies that are in the same boat as you!!!! You really get connected and get close to each other!!!
So, that was a little about my prenancy!!!
That's me and my life until next time! :)

A trip down Pregnancy Lane!!!!
Seeing as how I just started this, I need to update everyone on stuff from the past!!! I'll make different posts today about things that have happened in the past year with being pregnant and Mason coming into the world!!!
First you might want to know how I found out I was pregnant!!! :) BTW, we were NOT planning to have kids yet and I was on birth control! Hadn't missed a day from the time I started taking it!!! And we were not financially ready either!! But in the end, everything worked out and we can now afford and love the miracle that God has blessed up with!!!
Jake and I went out to eat one night at a Mexican restaurant and I was STARVING!!!! We get inside and order our drinks and we are looking at the menu when they bring out the chips and queso!!! I dipped my chip in the queso and when I put it in my mouth I smelt the cheese and almost lost it!! I had to put it back down.... and while Jake was eating dinner, I kept asking him if he was almost done. We FINALLY left and on the way home I told him if he didn't speed up I was going to loose it in his truck. How I held it in I have no idea but when I got home, I threw up for like an hour.... it was horrible!!! Jake thought I was coming down with the flu or something, but I knew exactly what it was because I was a week late, and I guess I just didn't believe it until I got sick!!!
Jake said that he wanted to go play poker for a little bit and asked me if I wanted him to stay there and help me because I didn't feel good. I told him that I was feeling much better and for him to go and have a good time!!! Right when he pulled out of the drive way, I grabbed my shoes and purse and headed to wal-mart to get a test! I bought 2 and when I got home I peed on it (I couldn't wait until the morning)!!! It says to wait like 1-3 mins, but it didn't take 1-3 seconds and there was 2 pink lines... I screamed and slung it out of my hand and grab the other test and ripped it open!!! I peed on it and the same thing!!! So, I called my sister and told her what was going on and not to tell anyone, because I wanted to tell Jake before anyone else knew!!! She met be back at wal-mart and I bought a bib that says "I love my Daddy" and a small gift bag!!!
I put the 2 tests and the bib in the bag and waited up on him to get home!!!! When he got home he came in the bed room and I told him that I had a present for him! He knew that something was going on because it was 11:00 pm and I was still up!!! (I go to bed early, like 9:00pm..lol) He opened it and just looked at me. I started to cry and he asked me what was wrong and I told him that I didn't want him to be mad at me because we were having a baby!!! He laughed and told me that he wasn't mad and that he couldn't be mad because he had a part in it too!!! lol!!! So he thought I was just tricking him because I still hadn't gotten my revenge on him from a while back!! lol! I told him that I wasn't joking and he said that He better not get excited and then me say that I was for real just joking!! So he called his best friend and said, "Man, I'm going to be a Dad!!!" With a big smile on his face!
That's me and my life until next time! :)

First Things First!
So this is my very first post and I don't really know what I'm doing. haha!!! I'm having fun finding layouts and trying to figure everything out though! So here's a little about me for those of you who don't know me or are getting to know me!! I am 20 years old (will be 21 in July)!! I love to have a good time and laugh and be loud!!! I am a people person and I think if I had to be by myself for a couple of days I would go crazy!!! Although, I do like a little me time! I love God dearly and have been a Christian since March 11,2001! I attend Immanuel Baptist Church and have been worshiping there for 7 years! I am terrified of the dark, I mean really really BAD scared! I will pee my pants if you lock me in a dark closet from screaming so loud, I mean it's that bad!!! haha!!! It's really really hard for others to embarrass me, unless it's something that's like OMGosh out there, then good luck!!! Although I do embarrass myself because I have this problem of not thinking before I speak sometimes!!! lol!
I have been married since June 28, 2008 to the love of my life Jacob Nash!!! The first time he saw me, he told his mom he would marry me, even though I was only 13!!! He moved to California for a couple of years, and EVERYTIME I heard he was coming home to visit I would get so giddy!!! THEN, when I was told me was moving back here, I thought that I had died and gone to heaven!!! He is my sole mate and my best friend!! I love him! :) Even the with the little things he does, like picking flowers for me from the side of the road or cleaning the kitchen when he knows I've had a hard day, make me smile!!! I hope and pray that he dreams of me the way I dream of him!
The other love of my life just arrived on December 1,2009!!! My sweet Mason boy is my everything!!! And he sure does love his mommy! :) I love love love all the little sounds he makes! And when he smiles at me my heart MELTS!!! He has a head FULL of long dark thick hair and everyone always thinks he's a girl when they meet him because of it! haha!!! Even if he is wear for real boy clothes!! I just laugh!!! He gives the best sugars anyone could ever give, for real!!! Sorry Jake, you come in second on that one!!! lol!!! I love that when someone else holds him and he gets fussy that he just gets calm and relaxes when I take him and hold him!!! He makes me think that he's thinking, "ah, mommy's arms". I love him, he's the best! :)
Well that's a little about me! I hope you stay tuned to what I have to say later! Hope you liked it! That's me and my life until next time! :)
