.i wish there were 28 hours in a day.

Working 2 jobs is not the ideal situation. Especially when you also have a 3 year old to make happy. BUT it's what I have to do. Funds have been running tight so my friends at Massage Envy Arrowhead gave me another job working at night. SO with working at Elle's pre-school in the a.m. and ME in the p.m., I basically have NO time with my family. Plus I work 6 days out of the week. The only day we have together is Sunday....:( It makes me sad jost blogging about it. I gotta do what I gotta do though and one day it will be worth it. But for now I wish there were a few more hours in my day to spend with Ollie. I see Elle more than him actually, which is a good thing for her, but I miss my hunny. By the time I get home at night it's 11 o'clock and I'm exhausted. I have to wake up at 630ish to get to the morning job so I really can't hang out with him too much at night. *sigh* I just keep telling myself it will be worth it.

Well, on Saturdays they are the best because I don't go to work until 3pm and I have the entire morning with Elle. Today she asked me to open a puzzle box for her. I left the room after I did so and came back about 15 minutes later to check on her and THIS was on the floor.....

Pretty good huh? Not bad for a 3 year old. This puzzle, BTW, is 2ft x 1.5ft. So it's huge! Then she wanted me to take a picture of her....she was very proud of herself because she went "poopy" all by herself without my help just 5 minutes earlier. lol. It's funny what makes her happy but it is nice not to have to go into the bathroom with her anymore cuz she's a BIG GIRL and can do it all by herself.

This week at school was spirit week and Elle won 2 days! She won for CRAZY HAIR DAY and for NEON DAY. SHe came in second for PAJAMA DAY. lol. Guess mommy loves dressing her up.

We had a party a couple weeks ago for our friend Ty who is leaving for the army soon. Ollie had wayyy too much to drink and I got a little tipsy myself. But not as bad as the hubby. He was the toilet's best friend all night long. Stupid boys.
Ollie is really drunk here


Ollie, Nathan (in red), and Ty (Ollie is in Nathan's wedding in September :))


They decided to have a massage train


All of us...so cute



Our vacation has been spoiled again. I was supposed to go on vacay in March but it was cancelled. I was supposed to go to Chicago with Ollie but I couldnt. We were supposed to go to Cali at the end of July and now we can't. *sigh* I swear i don't know when we ever will get to go. We have planned a trip in October so HOPEFULLY that will pan out. I NEED a vacation!

Thats about it for now. Next up: Leo's 3rd BDAY party! and Elle goes to the 4 year old classroom! yikes.

.just for you April.

So I have had a makeover....well my blog has. Thank you April. :) To quote her, "It is way too cute not to use it!" lol. Well here I am, another few months later. You'd think I would be able to keep up but my life has been so ridiculously busy that I hardly have time to breathe these days. *sigh* The biggest change has been that I am now working 2 jobs. It's difficult to find time for everyone and everything but I'm making it work. Hopefully we will be able to do everything we need to do with the extra income coming in.

I said in the last blog that I would post a picture of my new nephew Joseph. He is however 3 months old now so he's not very little anymore. haha. But I always stick to my word so here he is. :)
Baby Joseph


Joseph Now



And how about some updated pictures of my baby nieces!! No Problem!

Sophia Grace



Katy Elizabeth



Cute Aren't They?


Well Ollie went to Chicago this past June to attend a friend's wedding.

He had a blast but it was such a hard time for me. lol. I know, pathetic right? But I just hate being away from him so it was not the best time of my life.... BUT my wonderful, beautiful cousin Alicia came to babysit me. lol. We had alot of fun and we went to the melting pot. mmmmmm.....I even got a haircut. Here it is.




Alicia, Amy and I are super cute aren't we?





Still working on baby #2. It's such a horrible waiting process. If anyone has experience in that, will you give me some pointers?! Because I'm running out of patience! :)

Elle is 3.5 and she is growing like crazy. I think she's actually going to be tall. weird. Her likes seem to change everyday but I've finally gotten her to love the classic "princess" movies. First it was Snow White. But as we speak, she is quoting every line from Cinderella. It is pretty hysterical. She also got a haircut.


She's So Cute




Ollie and I went to the midnite showing of Twilight: Eclipse! He's such a good husband. lol. It was amazing, of course, and we had a blast. Here we are in the theatre waiting.

Next up: Harry Potter on November 19th! cannot wait.


I took a brief roadtrip to Cali in June to see Tim McGraw. Talk about a good time! If you haven't seen him, go! He's amazing live.

But the biggest thing that happened so far is Ollie getting Baptized! He was introduced to his new life with the Lord on June 27th. It was such an amazing day. Here he is starting his new and wonderful life.
We are so proud of him!


Well that is about it for now. Hopefully I'll be more entertaining later, but I have a house to clean for our party tonight! jealous??? yea, I'm sure you are. lol. BYE!
