My Baby is Sweet 16 Today!



I can't believe it! There is no way this child can be 16 today! He was running around in diapers with a "passy" sticking out of his mouth yesterday and today he lies around in his boxers with an Ipod stuck in his ears. (umm...that doesn't seem much different I guess) Still it's hard to believe that my sweet angel baby is almost a man. He is such a good kid. I am very proud of him. Some of my most favorite memories of him include the day I first layed eyes on him-I fell in love instantly. It was the kind of love I had never felt before. For the first time I understood the meaning of unconditional love. I knew I would love and take care of this precious child for the rest of my life. I knew he would break my will and probably my heart a few times, but that no matter what I would love him until the day I died. I remember all of his firsts; first smile, first laugh, first steps...it all seems not so long ago. Now he's able to drive a car! This post, pictures and the slide show are dedicated to him today. I wish I had more of his baby pictures on her, but my scanner is not working so I can't put any old photos on here except for the one I have of him in black and white and with his baby brother. (Baby brother will get his b'day tribute in July)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SON!

I giggled when I read your sweet 16 post about your son. I have a two year old and he runs around all day in diapers with a paci in his mouth. I just know that it is all going to fly by because it already has. Happy Birthday to your big boy!

Big Fat Loser

Okay, I know I suck. I haven't written hardly anything in weeks. My adoring fans (all 3) have probably deserted me by now. Well..... I'm back! It finally stopped raining so I can come out and play. The depression has lifted (almost) and I am feeling better. Thanks for the kind comments. I do have some good news. I have lost 6 1/2 pounds in a week and half! Yay !!! Shout it from the rooftops! I am. Really, I stood on my roof and shouted; "I lost 6 1/2 pounds!" Shortly after that some little men in white coats showed up at my house and tried to carry me away.... No really, I am excited about the weight loss. My secret? There's not one. I started counting calories and doing a little (and I do mean a little) bit of walking on the treadmill and of course the Wii -Fit! (I got a great work out with by lifting it and moving it around every time I needed to dust or vacuum) I have been going to my doctor's appointments. Today was the Gastronolgist visit. I

T'was the Day before Christmas

Image
It was the night (actually day) before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring to help mama clean, not even a mouse The stockings were hung by the chimney with care in hopes that someone who would help clean would soon be there The teenagers were nestled all snug in their beds while mama cooked, cleaned and slaved needing her meds And mama in her "kerchief" (WTF?) and dirty dishes in the sink I hoped for a miracle or at least a stiff drink! When out of nowhere there arose such a clatter I sprang from my chair to see what was the matter Down the hall I flew in a flash opened the door with a smash When what to my wondering eye should appear but two fighting teenagers over xbox and their gear I screamed out loud and moved so lively and quick and said there will be no presents from St. Nick! I've had it with you two They'll be no more fighting I'm through! More rapid that eagles their chores came I shouted them out by name Clean toilets, clean
