has is really been 44 days???

wow thats a long time to go without blogging!!! i guess i have been doing alot of updating on facebook and i just kinda forgot about my cute little blog :( but i am going to try and post more cause i really like to go back and look at pictures and my randomness at later dates lol!

so anyways whats been going on the past 44 days....

caleb turned 1 and thats just crazy that he is that old hes actually 13mts now its just shocking really that my baby boy is getting so big my mom and sister were down when we celebrated his birthday so that was cool he was not impressed with the cake one bit thou i forced him to try the frosting and he acted like i was trying to poison him lol but i suppose thats no surprise cause he is not much of an eater he like Cheerios, pretzel's, and chicken and thats about it!!!

hummm chad is still gone :( and will be gone still for a long time and this deployment is taking forever and ever and i am very bored with it!!! but in june we move to panama city for shore duty so we are really looking foward to that i can't wait to be out of mayport most days it feels like june will never come but in the other hand its really not that far away!!! i will miss a few people from here but honestly i am not really a person that "hangs" out with people i am more of an email friend i just don't really care for social gatherings and i think party's and group outings with husbands involved are torture lol but every once in awhile i do enjoying going to the park with a friend and chatting it up or coffee at a friends house and chatting :) but thats about it! well what started as an i miss chad ended in my anti social behaviors intresting....

lets see i have discovered an awesome new website called wish upon a hero its just full of awesomeness you have to check it out and here's my profile if you want to grant my book wish lol or just add me as a friend :) but its a great site i have helped people with food, clothes, and cards and it feels great and cheyenne got so many birthday cards for her birthday last year its amazing how a card can make someone feel so good seeing them come in had me in tears and kyles getting them in now his birthday is 11/27 and honestly its just awesome i can't say enough good things about this site!!

i started working out again on monday and it sucks but its going pretty good so far and i needed to start cause i am getting to big from all the eating out we tend to do when chad is away so far i have lost 2 lbs i am sure its just water weight but i'll take it lol!! we got a wii fit and it does make working out kinda fun i love beating the kids running scores and hula hoop scores lol!!!

well i guess thats all i got today i might add a few pictures later but right now i need to go clean the kitchen and living room later guys!

not much going on...

sorry i have not been around alot i have been been reading alot and just chilling around the house with the kids we have not really been doing much so there is not much to write about! we went to the park over the weekend and poor kk got stung by a wasp i was worried at first she might be allergic cause her poor leg got all red and puffy so we went home right away and by the time we got there it was fine and just a little puffy where she got stung so i knew she was fine but that was a little scary at first! and she wanted to go to sonics since that wasp put its poison in her haha shes so crazy!! it was happy hour so i figured why not so we all got slushies and headed home and watched monsters vs. aliens we LOVE that movie its so funny if you have not seen it yet you should go buy it or get it on netflix or something!!! well i guess thats all i got I'll try to get some new pictures posted soon i just can't find my camera to get them online! later guys!

I'm back lol... so anyways I've been gone for awhile but chads been off work alot and i have been playing games on facebook in my spare time and that really left me no time for blogging lol but i hope to get back on track now! chad just left for deployment today and that was a super big ole bummer we are all pretty sad about it i mean its his 3rd deployment in 3 years!!! thats crap i tell you!! but anyways chad traded his truck in and got a smaller and much cheaper truck he had a big Chevy 2500 diesel crew cab and now hes got a Toyota Tacoma single cab its actually really cute but he does not like me to call it that hahahaha its so much cheaper so we will finally have some extra money and on tax time we are just gonna pay it off and work on getting out of debt and trading that other truck was a huge step in the right direction of getting out of debt! lets see what else is new since last time i have wrote....oh yeah cody went to the dentist and this is his 3rd time going so you would think he was used to everything but he was just having a crappy day i guess and was being a butthead and whining about everything even the water going in his mouth and guess what happened he jumped and the drill hit his lip yikes huh!! its pretty rough looking like he got punched in the mouth but i don't blame the dentist at all cause cody was just in a crabby mood we all were really cause it was chads last day in all but in a couple weeks i guess we are gonna go back and try again and hopefully we will have better results with cody and he can get tooth fixed and we can be done with the dentist for awhile... hopefully!

wow am i glad i have noting else to do this week, Monday cody had to get a baby root canal done its not really a root canal but its pretty much what it is my poor little dude, he did great thou there was one time he was in pain ;( and had to be given another shot but once that kicked in he was fine and had a heavy tongue for a long time (lol thats what he called it) but today hes doing great you would have never thought he just had some major work done yesterday!! and today kyle had to go and actually get a tooth pulled and a space maintainer put in which was pretty scary for me he did great when the dentist was done i asked kyle if he wanted to see his tooth and hes all what mom they took my tooth out already hahaha i was pretty happy about that cause i would hate for him to have been in any pain!! both boys still have to get more stuff done kyles going back on the first to get 2 of his teeth capped cause the filling are bad now and Cody's got to go back on the 15Th and get another baby root canal done ;( but at least we found an awesome dentist office one thing we never found in Oklahoma so for that i am very very grateful!!

in other news chads out to sea again ;( for about 2 weeks and that really sucks hes gonna miss the independence day fest on base they are doing it this weekend so i guess its just me and the kids going bummer on that!!

we went to the beach and chad and kyle fished on Sunday and they saw a bunch of sand sharks chad said he saw one that was pretty big really close man how scary is that, they were not even that far out we went at high tide and about an hour before sunset and it was so nice out there the water was calmer then i have ever seen it!! well i guess i need to go and get some stuff around the house done i just wanted to update the blog since its been awhile ;)

darn my kids teeth!!

well i took 4 of the kiddos to the dentist this week kk and cody went Tuesday and i LOVE their dentist but am sad to report Cody's has to get 2 caps and then 3 fillings ;( and kk needs 2 caps ;( so thats pretty uncool we brush twice a day everyday so really how does this happen??) and then on to kyle and Cheyenne kyle is not doing well either he actually has an infected tooth thats gonna have to be pulled ;( and that was one that was filled in stupid Oklahoma and all the other fillings he had in Oklahoma are bad now and will have to be redone just another reason to dislike that crappy place! but Cheyennes teeth are perfect as usual! so yeah to that but i hate that the other 3 kiddos have to get a lot of stuff done it makes me sad!!

in other news my dishwasher is finally fixed so thats some good news!!! well later guys i need to clean up a bit!

Wow I've been gone awhile lol

so i am just sitting here waiting on maintenance to get here and fix or replace my dishwasher they are not late yet but they will be in 1 minute lol they were suppose to come between 8-11 and ummm no they are not here yet!!! very annoying!! i think the thing that annoys me the most is pest control is coming today also to spray for spiders and stuff and they were suppose to come between 8-11 and they are not here also yet so whats up with that crap??? but anyways i cleaned my butt off yesterday so they house looks pretty awesome, well as awesome as it can look for a house with 5 kids under 8 lol!

I took Cody and Kaylee to the dentist yesterday and i love the place i took them to!! I was so happy with the dentist and hygienist and that NEVER happens i have never really liked any of the dentists my kids have been to cause they were all rude and have crazy rules like you are not allowed to go back with your kid and i just think that's wrong!! but this guys awesome and so is his staff there i go back again tomorrow for Cheyenne and kyle while its annoying i have to go back there this soon i am okay with it since it was such a nice place!! other then that we have not been doing all that much chads out to sea for about a week give or take a day so i am sure i will be blogging again hes been home early alot so i have not really had the time to well later guys I'll be back later with new pictures ;)

I Heart Faces ~Blurb Photo Book Contest~ #2

This is one of my favorite pictures of Chad and Kaylee it was when he came back from his last deployment in October 08 and she missed him so much she is a total daddy's girl and you could just see the joy in her eyes for weeks!!

"I am submitting this photo into the http://www.iheartfaces.com/ Blurb Book photo contest. I am granting I ♥ Faces permission to use my photo in a printed version of a book for commercial use and possibly advertising of a photo book on both the Blurb and I ♥ Faces web sites."

better then cloth diapers lol lol

I missed my Tonya ;) UPDATED W/Pictures

i have to admit i am so freaking happy right now this morning Tonya (my ex step sister lol) confirmed me as a friend on myspace see i have missed my Tonya so much we grew up together my mom and her dad were together/married from the time i was about 12 or 13 till i was 18 so we spent a big part of our life together and we always had fun i remember this one time she mooned the traffic on scenic hwy hahahaha and then i remember all the funny pictures we would take and i remember this one time i said something to her from the earphones in our little stereo and she like god is that you hahaha it was so funny i am sure it does not sound funny but it was! it has been so many years since i have been in contact with Tonya when i joined the navy in 98 i did not talk to her much and then my mom left her dad in like 99 and then my mom moved to Texas so i up until like the summer of 2007 (i think) i had not seen or talked to her but my mom moved back to Pensacola and i called mark (yuck lol) to get Tonya's number and we met up and it was awesome seeing her but sadly we only got together that one time and now its 2 years later and she is finally on myspace so i am pretty excited and shes getting married in 6 Mt's that's just so awesome!!!



Here's some old pictures of us they are kinda crappy cause i took them with my camera i really need a scanner but they are still cool ;)


here's a picture of Tonya from probably 1997 ;)
and here's on of that crazy sister of mine from 96 i think?? hahahahahaha

and here's one of me and Tonya and wally cat from 97 or 98 ;)

and another one of me and Tonya from 96 probably yes i look like a boy thanks for noticing lol!

one huge reason i love foodlion

so a few weeks ago i lost my wallet and if you know me you know i lose my wallet all the time and it just always turns up in the car or under my bed etc etc etc and i kept checking the accounts and noting was stolen form them so i just knew it was in the house but we have been taking turns being sick and i really have not had time to look for it! so yesterday i had to go to foodlion and get a few things and i went to my favorite cashier shes just really nice and cool and has a sling like mine and she always makes Caleb laugh so she sees me and says where have you been ( i usually go to foodlion twice a week but like i said we have been sick) and i was like ummm we have been sick it was weird lol so she says I've got your wallet i found it on the ground in the parking lot i was like OMG thank you so much (this foodlion is not in the nicest of places so wow thank you lord for her finding it) so yeah foodlion rocks!!

man...

wow its been a rough couple days i really thought i was gonna die Monday and i have no idea how i got thru the day before chad came home cause that whole day is a blur we have a nasty little virus circulating in our house right now it all started on Sunday for me yes what a wonderful mothers day gift lol we did have a great day still the kids all got me some awesome little homemade gifts and then they all had some flowers and and Cheyenne had a balloon and teddy bear that kk stole like 15 minutes later haha and then we went to the beach for probably about 3 hours, haveing the big umbrella is awesome cause we can stay longer chad fished (and caught noting lol, but we did see a baby shark someone caught and that was cool) the kids had an awesome time playing in little tide pools and it was cool having them play in the pools cause i did not really have to stress out and worry about them being carried off to sea so it was really relaxing! i even let Caleb play in the tide pools and he had a blast I'll try to get some pictures posted later theres a really funny one of him tasting salt water hahaha! so after all that we went to Wendy's for dinner and then just chilled at home and watched a movie and that night is when it all started i had a really high fever that took 4 hours to break and yes i took Motrin and Tylenol and it still took that long it was crazy and then the next day(Monday) my head hurt so bad i really thought it might just explode and that was ALL DAY long finally Tuesday i was feeling a little better but i still felt like crap but at least i could get off the floor and take care of the kids and myself and then yesterday (Wednesday) chad got it and he was in bed all day with the horrible headache and fever but today he went to work so i am guessing he is doing better i think kk and Caleb and getting it now which really stinks cause i hate my babies to be in pain please pray for them and that they will not get the worst of it!!

Any one want some free diapers..??? these are promised to someone now sorry

***these are now promised to someone thanks anyways for looking and sorry you missed them!

hey guys since i am making my own diapers now i am not really feeling the need to hoard all these diapers i have!! ( i have tons) so i am gonna get rid of the ones that need work i have 11 fuzzi bunz that all need new elastic i also have 3 or 4 others that have leaking problems you can have all of these for the cost of shipping (about 6 bucks) or if you want i will fix the elastic for 3 bucks a diaper just make me an offer it may take me a few weeks thou cause i do have 5 kids and my time is usually short! the 11 diapers with elastic issues have no leaking issues that i can remember but they have been thru 4 kids and have stains please see the pictures i also wanted to add that there are no inserts with these you can buy them from any cloth diapering website or if you wanna be super cheap you can just use rags but they will not absorb near are good as ones that are made for diapers!


they are size medium mostly but there are a few petites

see lots of staining!

i've got sewing fever!!

OK this is just a cute picture of Caleb and daddy sleeping and if you read little mans shirt it says my dads a geek hahahahaha
