Press On
Nothing in the world can take the place of perseverance.
Talent will not;
Nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent.
Genius will not;
Unrewarded genius is almost legendary;
Education will not;
The world is full of educated derelicts.
Perseverance and Determination alone are omnipotent.

I know these are trying times and you feel like you are stuck between a rock and a hard place, but press on. You can take any situation and make it work for you if you put your mind to it. Take these challenges and figure out how the HELL you are going to get them done. Get creative. Stretch your mind. Because this does matter to you. Because this IS who you are. Don't let the disappointment of others bring you down. Keep producing and persevering and you'll accomplish all you need to and then some! You may be a "rookie" at this game but remember, you've studied the rules and know the strategies. Now use those to your advantage and get resourceful. I love you and you're amazing. So kick some damn ass!!

Nursery Ideas 2...

My favorites are the first three. I can't wait to hear what you think baby. :)

Island Surf Nursery Bedding
I think this is so cute. And I love the bold colors in it and feel they aren't too overwhelming. It would be fun to decorate the nursery around this.


I swear I didn't pick this because of the owls. I just loved the colors. I like these primary colors, as you can probably see becoming a trend through these pictures, because we can do so much around them that doesn't require us to follow a theme.

I really like how simple this one is. It would allow us to do whatever we wanted with the nursery. I know it's kinda boring in a way but I think that will allow so many fun accents.

This isn't really one of my favs...just wanted to feel you out about it. I'm really not feeling green for the babies room...it looks too much like moss....or fungus...lol

This one just seemed fun. A bit busy but just because it comes with certain sheets doesn't mean we have to use them. We could always do solids and use the bumper as the accent. Just a thought.

While we were out..

Today while I was out shopping for clothes, Summer made friends with the women at the Motherhood store. They let her play around the store and help them rearrange clothes while I tried on clothes. During Summer's play time with these ladies, she picked up a monkey. I came out of the dressing room to find them trying to explain to Summer that the few pennies she had in her pocket would not cover the cost of this little monkey she had attached herself too. I was planning on paying for this silly little monkey when the woman behind the counter proceeded to give Summer 7 Dollars out of her own wallet so she herself could pay for him. You can't imagine the smile on Summer's face knowing she could purchase her monkey ALL on her own! And the woman refused my money in return. She said "if I hadn't of wanted to do it, I wouldn't have." And so Summer made her first purchase all on her own. She came over to me afterwards and said, "Mommy, I didn't buy this for me." So automatically I thought she had bought it for the baby. She then said, "I bought this monkey for Tom. Remember how much he likes monkeys?". At that moment, I lost it in front of everyone in the store and cried all over Summer. It was the sweetest and purest example of love I think I have ever experienced. She loves and misses you so much. Here's a pic of her and "George".

Rio!

rio-movie-poster

Summer and I went and saw Rio tonight. It was cute. Lots of great music that kept our booties shaking through out the whole movie! We had a nice little girls night. After the movie we went to Wings and Things and got a boat load of Teriyaki wings to share. Oh so good. Yummmmmm. Then we played a round of baseball in a pin ball machine. Summer was kicking my butt! I would have gotten pictures but of course my phone died. :( Kinda allowed me to focus on everything we were doing. :) She also ate her apple sauce through my straw. Her spoon fell on the floor and we never saw our waitress again so we improvised and had fun doing it. Great night. Wish you could have been here with us.

It is amazingly empowering to have the support of a strong, motivated, and inspirational group of people.

I want to be all the support you need and the one you turn to but I am only one woman and as much as I'd like to think of myself as super woman, I know I'm not. I will be here as much as I can for you. That doesn't mean I'm always going to know the correct thing to say or give you the comfort that you need. I really am trying my hardest but I'm human and will fail just like every other human. Having a strong, united group behind you allows others to be the support you need. They may not understand everything that you are going through, but they understand what they are going through with you. Each person will offer you love and support as well as a moment of distraction. You never know what someone is going to bring up or have to share with you. Giving them the chance to do so allows some of them a chance to share this experience with you. Like I said, I always want you to turn to me if you want to but please be understanding with me and patient if I don't have the right words or distractions to share. I love you and support you whole heartedly and I promise to keep trying to aid you and be by your side through this. But please remember, ultimately, God is by your side. He will get you through anything. 

Summer at the Drs....

Summer was put on a nebulizer at the doctors. She has to do the breathing treatment every four to six hours. I have to put this medication in the tubes and she has to sit and breathe them in for a good 15 minutes. I have to even do it when she is sleeping. But luckily I have a mask I can put on her which means I don't have to wake her up every four hours. She's also on steriods for the next five days. Poor baby.. I hope this treatments knocks it out. Her temperature has been around 102 all day. Selfishly, I'm semi nervous about myself. Mainly because of the baby. I don't want to get sick.. I see the doctor on Monday for my fourteen week appointment so I plan on talking to them about it if I feel any symptoms. Not gonna screw around with getting sick. Summer's been a trooper. She takes her medicine and does her treatment like a big girl. I'll have to treat her to icecream once this cold has been kicked. :)

I do..



"I Do"

It's always been about me, myself, and I
I thought relationships were nothing but a waste of time
I never wanted to be anybody's other half
I was happy saying that our love wouldn't last
That was the only way I knew 'til I met you

You make we wanna say
I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do doo
Yeah, I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do doo
Cause every time before it's been like
Maybe yes and maybe no
I can't live without it, I can't let it go
> Ooh what did I get myself into?
You make we wanna say I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do,

Tell me is it only me
Do you feel the same?
You know me well enough to know that I'm not playing games
I promise I won't turn around and I won't let you down
You can trust I've never felt it like I feel it now
Baby there's nothing, there's nothing we can't get through
So can we say
I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do doo
Oh baby, I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do doo
Cause every time before it's been like
Maybe yes and maybe no
I won't live without it, I won't let it go
What more can I get myself into?
You make we wanna say

Me, a family, a house, a family
Ooh, can we be a family?
And when I'm eighty years old I'm sitting next to you

And we'll remember when we said
I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do do
Oh baby, I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do do
Cause every time before it's been like
Maybe yes and maybe no
I won't live without it, I won't let it go
Just look at what we got ourselves into
You make we wanna say I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do,
Love you
