New Due Date

Not really any earlier than we had before, however, my new due date is March 26, 2009. If the baby comes early and is born on the 23rd of March, it will share the same birthday with my great grandpa!!!!!! I was born on my great grandmas birthday and Kendall was born on Uncle Emets, pretty cool. Cassidy was only one day away from a family friend but she has her own unique day because of it I guess :)

Hypnobirthing?

Since finding out we were pregnant again, I was remembering a conversation I had at one of our friends BBQ's, one of he women there told me of how when she had her second, she did a thing called hypnobirthing and it was the best experience of her life. She said it was relatively pain-free and just a beautiful experience. I am a little skeptical and don't know much about it so now I am starting to research it. Has anyone else heard about it? It just seems nice to be able to have a natural labor relatively pain-free. I had a natural labor with Kendall however I don't think I would call it any kind of pain free. It wasn't too bad but not pleasant, hahaha. So, I guess I will continue to research and hopefully if anyone knows about it, can give me some input.

A New Addition!!!

Ok, if you haven't found out yet, we are having another baby!!!!!!! As of right now the due date is March 28, 2009. I am so excited and cannot wait to meet our newest little one, I already an anxious to hold and cuddle it!!!! And hopefully it is a boy, we could use another boy around here :)

RIP Randy Pausch

Ok, so this is an actual death, not a fish :) Today Randy Pausch died, I didn't know him of course but he was amazing from what I have read and seen of him. If you don't know of him or heard his speeches, you should. He was told that he had terminal pancreatic cancer and only had months to live. In hearing that news, he wrote a speech called 'The Last Lecture', mainly for his 3 children he would leave behind, but for everyone else as well. It was just filled with tons of hope and things that were so positive. I don't think I have ever had as many insights in my life as he has and he had them on his death bed. I hope that one day I can be just as great as he was if I am ever hit with the news I may not live. I also feel so bad for his kids, losing a daddy is so horrible!!!!

RIP Jonas Brothers

Well, in the last 2 days, we have lost 4 fish!!! All of the Jonas Brothers are gone and one of the other ones. The last 2 seem to be really active so here's hoping we don't kill those ones!!!!! I don't know why we even got fish, they always seem to die. But, for now, it is off to Walmart to get more.......

Acting!!!!

I am going to be acting for our church group called Route 6:6. It is children's theater and might be going around to the local schools around here too. I haven't don't any acting in a very long time and am very excited to start. And after that is done, hopefully I can find something bigger :)

New Additions!!!!

The girls have been bugging me for months every time we go to the store to get them some fish, they love watching fish. So yesterday we went out and bought 6, 3 black and white striped ones and 3 yellow ones, I don't know what kind. The black and white ones Cassidy named the Jonas Brothers and the yellow ones are the Three Stooges :) Now hopefully I don't end up accidentally killing them!!!!

Insomnia

This is driving me nuts!!! It is already 1:30 in the morning here......and I am up.......again!!! I cannot sleep for the life of me. I am tired however if I go upstairs to bed and try to sleep, I will toss and turn for over an hour. I am actually not too tired during the day, however, about every 5 days I have a real sluggish day where it kind of all catches up to me, and it is really starting to bug me, I need sleep!!!!!!

12 Pillars of Success

I went to my monthly Arbonne meeting tonight and one of the girls who was speaking gave us the 12 Pillars of Success. She got them from the book, the 12 Pillars by Chris Weidner. They obviously can be used for my Arbonne business but it can also be for success at anything in life, so I thought I would share.

1. Work harder on yourself than you do on your job.

2. Live a life of health and total well-being (body, soul, mind, spiritual).

3. Make the most of the gifts of relationships.

4. Achieve your goals.

5. Master the use of time.

6. Surround yourself with the best people.

7. Be a lifelong learner.

8. All of life is sales (influence). Are you someone people can know, like and trust?

9. Income seldom exceeds personal development.

10. Communication brings a common ground of understanding.

11. The world can always use another great leader.

12. To leave a legacy.

The things kids say...............

So, we were on base sitting in the field watching fireworks and Cassidy came up to me, gave me a big hug and said "mommy, look what the angels are doing for us, it is so pretty!!" I dont think we have ever explained to her how fireworks work but it made me tear up, it was the sweetest thing!!!

Happy Fourth Of July

I hope you all have a great day!!!! We are having a little bbq and then heading to the base for the fireworks and carnival rides.
