New Pics!!!!!

One more week till Christmas!!!

Hope you have all of your shopping done because this week will be sooo crazy in the stores. I have decided I will give money to my nephews and forget the shopping. This weekend flew by. Usually Mom has Greyson every Saturday night but the last couple I can't stand to give him up. He is so fun to be with. He smiles SOOO MUCH. Each time he smiles, I tear up a little. He has us wrapped so far around his finger. I told Mom that my heart feels like it's going to explode with love for him. I really don't know what I did without him.

This weekend Mom and I will go to the Christmas program at church and then we'll be having Christmas at Tami's house. Soo fun! Last year we had a blast over there. You know I will have pictures on here as soon as I can.

Carlos' boss and his wife are more than generous. They always buy us such huge presents. I wish they wouldn't really. It makes my present look like it came out of the cracker jack box. We went to Longhorn Steakhouse today and had a yummy lunch with them. I knocked over a whole glass of water on my son's lap. I was going to check his bottle to see how much he had drank and I hit my glass, WHOOPS! I felt so bad, he was soaked.




Anyway, I hope you all have your shopping done. I think I am gonna throw the towel in and be finished. Have a Merry Christmas!!

Fa la la la la

Greyson got to meet Santa for the first time this week at the babysitter's house. I didn't know she was even going to have him come over. I love this babysitter. When it's a kid's birthday she decorates her whole house with balloons and streemers and they celebrate that kids birthday all day. It's really neat. I am really glad to have her.

Christmas is only in a couple of weeks, do you have your shoppping done? I don't. I need to get something for his sitter, any ideas? I don't know who will answer me, maybe Rachel. Thanks Rachel for being a dedicated "The Real Me" blog reader, ha ha ha. I know I have a couple others but no one ever comments. I must go now, I have to get my dog from the groomers. He got beautified. Have a great weekend!

Snow snow go away!

Minnie decided that Greyson looked awfully comfy so she decided to hop up on the bouncer and cuddle up. Their wasn't enough room for me, so I didn't get to cuddle with them, LOL. We got lots of snow here in Missouri and so I have been entertaining myself taking pictures and watching movies. Carlos has been plowing snow for 36 hours straight. I feel so sorry for him, but he's in pretty good spirits!! Hope everyones weekend is great!

Goodbye Thanksgiving, Hello Christmas!

Well, Thanksgiving is over and done and I am sure I am a few pounds heavier because of it. With Christmas coming up I am excited about spending more time with my family. I really can't wait until next year when Greyson is a little older. It will be much more fun to hand him a present then.






I am back to work and things are going well so far. It's nice to have that structure back in my life except I miss my little buddy while I'm there. Right now he's loving his little gym and is trying to touch all of the things on there. It's so cute to watch. I am looking forward to the giggling that will start in the next month. That is going to be worth a million bucks for sure. We are loving him so much that we are already planning the next little one. We will probably start trying again in April of 2008. So, I am gonna enjoy him right now.

This weekend we ( me, Carlos, Tina and Brad) went to Kansas City for my 31st birthday. We had a great time. We went to this little bar called the Peanut. They had the best wings. And the city was so beautiful all lit up for Christmas. Tina is almost as crazy as me, ALMOST! She's so funny. That's her and I below.






I will stop rambling for now! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Holidays!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

I am VERY thankful for my gorgeous baby boy that God gave me. He couldn't have made him anymore perfect. Prayer must really work! I am also thankful for the family that God gave me and wonderful husband who takes great care of his family and is so proud to do it too. Life is short and we all need to stop and realize that it can be taken away so quickly. God has a plan for all of us. I will always cherish the things I have. I love it all!

Just wanted to tell anyone who reads my blog, Happy Thanksgiving and I hope you and yours have a beautiful time together over the holidays.

Don't eat too much like I always do. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

The Papasan

This thing is a lifesaver. I bought this last night because I started taking Greyson to the sitter and I want to bring a swing to her house for him. Well, I decided I wanted a really nice one for home and I would bring the one from home to the sitter. It was the best decision I have ever made. This is the Fisher Price Papasan Cradle Swing. It knocks Greyson out!



It swings side to side or back and forth and plays the coolest music while butterflies and birdies fly around. He won't fall asleep unless I am holding him, well not anymore! He sits in this thing and falls asleep!! Now, don't get me wrong, I LOVE holding Greyson. But, it's nice to be able to put him in this and get stuff done. I might actually have time to do things!!! So, this is my recommendation for a great swing. Sometimes you will try anything!

Video of Greyson

I believe if you just click on the link it will take you to the video. I go back to work on Wednesday and I have bitten all of my nails off because I am a wreck thinking about leaving my sweet, baby boy. He has become this little man with a great personality. When he smiles he literally makes me cry. I tear up every time. I know I have to go back to work so I am trying to just suck it up, but it's hard. How could you WANT to leave a precious face like this?

Occifer Greyson, LOL

Well, last night was Halloween and you see what Greyson was. A lot of people asked me if he got a lot of candy. Do people really think I would take a 2 month old out for trick or treating? Not quite people. Besides it was like 40 degrees out. At least it wasn't raining. We went to Tess and Gary's, lots of people were there celebrating Halloween with them. I had gotten some Cardinals bracelets and posters from my neighbor so Gary handed those out, and kept a few for himself. They went very well since we just won the World Series. Well, that's all for now. I guess we better start Christmas shopping since it is only less than 2 months away now. YIKES!!!
