Those Darn Ants!!!!

I am getting itchy writing this. Last night, I got a little hungry at about midnight and I went into the kitchen to make a snack and I was leaning over the counter and I started feeling itchy and I looked down and saw there were ants crawling all over me. My hands, my shirt...they were all over my countertops. I HATE ants. They make me feel so icky! I cannot stand to see them in my house. We have had problems in the past with them, but this year they seem so bad! I didn't notice them on the counter because they kinda blended in with the back granite. I had to blog about this because hubby is sitting over here in the recliner, sratching. He just had one crawing on his leg. I am now convinced they are in all our food. A couple of weeks ago, I had a HUGE gnat problem. I had to pour bleach down my drains and set out vinegar traps. I finally got rid of those, and now I get ants in their place.

Just another day in so called paradise!!!

Today has been a WILD day. The kids and I went shopping this morning (I didn't watch the weather) and we went off to Little Rock and down came a monsoon. Three kids+lots of loot @ Garden Ridge+one small umbrella=alot of wet people and stuff! Not to mention that Caden had cotton in his ears in all the stores. He kept touching stuff and not listening to me. I really hate to say it, but I can't wait till school starts!

My dishwasher is sick. It is currently out of commission. Back when Camden was first born, we lived in a house that didn't have a dishwasher. I remember having three babies (2,1,and newborn) and ALL I did was wash bottles and sippy cups. I hate standing there..it hurts my legs. And I hate having wet hands. Ugh. I have taken the kids to Taco Bell and Subway for dinner the last two days so I wouldn't have to wash alot of dishes. Tonight I cooked the kids dinner. (Poppyseed Chicken, garlic green beans, and Sister Schubert rolls.) It was SO good. HOWEVER, my kids decided they didn't want to eat tonight after I cooked. They picked at their food. Then it took me an HOUR to wash all the dishes!!!!

I miss you!!!!


Just piled the dishes up after I washed em!




****I want you guys to know that I wouldn't trade this chaos for anything!!!! These kids are my life, and my job! Sometimes it gets a bit overwhelming!****

Wordless Wednesday

I know, I know, I look SO HOT!!!! *COUGH*
Go do it to yourself!!!!!

Click HERE!!!


Ya'll have a Fab Wednesday. Me and the little bits are bout to go do some shopping!

Quick Saturday trip

So, on Saturday we went to Springfield, MO to go to Bass Pro Shops. Because Daddy had to. We left Benton at around 7:25 and made it there at around 11:30. We left Little Rock sunny and warm and drove into chilly rain in MO. It was kind of depressing. So we drove 4 hours to shop for three. Kinda silly when I think about it. Other than that, we had a pretty lazy weekend.

Scotty surprised me with Sugarland tickets and I was super excited. I LOVE Jennifer Nettles!!

I will leave ya with some pics of the kiddos at Bass Pro!

Calling all you Southern Belles....

Does anyone besides me watch this show? It was my guilty pleasure for a few weeks. I realize it was really silly at times, and a little over the top, but I loved it!!! The players Kelli, Emily, Shea, Hadley, and Julie were all so different and I actually felt connected to these people...ok, I know I am ridiculous with my reality TV. I think the reason I liked it was because all these women were unmarried, childless and all about my age. I like to see how people live who aren't married and don't have kids. It makes me KNOW I wouldn't change my life for a million bucks. As Kelli's dating business says, Dating Sucks. And I sure wouldn't want to be doing it!!! Anyways, I still like to watch. I hope it comes back on for another season. And as ridiculous as I am, I actually cried at the end tonight of the finale when Shea talked about Jeff cheating on her. I saw that coming....
Ok, maybe I watch a little too much reality TV!!!
Good night, Ya'll!!!

Help....

What the heck is up with blogger???? I follow about a Gazillion blogs and they're all gone! It says I do not follow any blogs!!!!! Ugh!!! Where did they go? :(





So, if I follow you, I did not delete you on purpose and will add you back as soon as I figure this mess out!!!!

Just wanted to tell ya bout a giveaway!

Two Words+A whole Lot More

Viral Meningitis. Ugh. Just let me tell you how painful it is. I would never wish this pain on anyone. It has been horrible. I am at home resting and my headache is some better so I decided to blog a little. When I was wallowing in my misery last night at my worst pain, I was so scared. I thought I was going to die. The pain meds made me have crazy thoughts. ;)

This morning, I was lying in bed mad that I have to pay all these medical bills (we don't have insurance). I was mad that I was at home with the kids and noone to help me. I was annoyed that my husband had to leave me straight from the hospital to go back to Nashville. As I was feeling sorry for myself, God spoke to me. I am SO blessed. I have three beautiful children. There are so many women out there who want babies and I have been so blessed. I have a husband who was willing to spend the night at the hospital with me and get no sleep and still drive back to Nashville. I have a husband that adores me and would die for me. My kids have a Daddy that works harder than most to provide a very comfortable life for them. My parents are healthy. I still have my grandparents. I want for nothing. (except to lose a little weight :) I have kids who while they are messy and don't have the best listening skills, love their mama. And they told me I was pretty today even though my hair hasn't been washed in 2 days.

God provides for our needs all the time, but sometimes we don’t appreciate all that he does for us. Just read Psalm 65. It defines it all so clearly. Something led me to go read it today.
"But my God shall supply all your need according to his
riches in glory by Christ Jesus."
Philippians 4:19

Sometimes it is so easy to wallow in our misery that we can't be thankful for what we have. And He gave it all. Lately, I have been so caught up in being sick, and stressed out that I haven't told Him thank you. We should have thankful hearts.

My kids, as much as I love them have stressed me out alot lately in the last few months. It's so hard to take care of three kids on your own during the week. It's hard to not be able to go where I need to go because of the kids. It's hard because I see my husband leave every weekend and know that it breaks his heart to spend the week away from his kids. I see my little boy crying...Daddy, when are you coming back? I feel sorry for myself sometimes for having a child on the autism spectrum. I feel like noone understands. Sometimes when people stare at Wal-Mart when I am telling him not to do something or he runs off, I want to tell them to mind their own business. As I poured all this out to Scotty earlier, he reminded me that so many other parents have it way worse than we do. Our son is healthy, handsome, incredibly smart. So what if he is a little different?

I am going to make an effort to be more thankful. I needed a wake up call.

Are you being challenged beyond your ability to endure? Don’t believe that you can do it alone! You can’t! Jesus said, “apart from me you can do nothing!” Did you get that point? Nothing! Don’t try anything today without relying on the power of God! He knows your weak, but He is available to help, if you will call upon Him! When we are at our weakest, He is strong!


This is what I am most thankful for:


My Hog Crazy family!!!!
Hope everyone had a fabulous Monday!

These pics came from our outdoor camera at our land. How many of you women out there have husband's whose first love is these creatures?? (I like to hunt.)
I just know come October 1st, I won't be important for awhile!!!

Well, my Dr. got the thing out without surgery!!! My mom was sitting in the corner, praying! (She went with me because she wouldn't let me drive!) I am feeling some better. I still have an on and off fever. I am just glad my husband is at home to take care of me and the kiddos. I missed them. They gave me Stadol at the hospital and it made me completely loopy and dropped my BP and essentially I just ended up with a hige headache. The Gyn said he does not like to use IUD's, so really after the five years I've had, I would never do it again or recommend it. I will leave you with a couple of precious pics of my babies. I have just ralized how much they have grown in the last year, so I am posting some older pics. Nothing else to blog about.:)

This one of Lai is from last Sep. She was watching a movie and I thought she looked so sweet.



Me and Cade after his Taekwondo. I think this was last October.



This is Cam on his 4th Bday. I can't believe he is almost 5!




Hope everyone had a fabulous day!

icky

I had a lovely night in the hospital last night. I couldn't take the pain amymore so my mom took me. I have the world's worst headache and still have a fever. At least I got pain meds in my IV. I am at home now and my family has taken away my children and I miss them like crazy. I just wish they were here with me. I am going to be going to the Dr. this afternoon and when Scotty makes it in from Nashville, he will pick up the kiddos. I miss my husband!

MIsery...

Nothing interesting to write. I am sick, have a fever and feel like poop. I won't go into too much detail (I will spare you) but I have a uterine and a cervical infection. It has been making me miserable. I was hospitilized back in October and have been dealing with this for a couple of years. It is believed to be because of my Mirena IUD. (At least, I believe that.) It has broken and is perforated the side of my uterus. As most of you probably know, I don't have time to be sick. I feel like someone is stabbing me with daggers. Soooo...tomorrow they are going to try and get the thing out in the office. The reason I haven't done it is because they think they will have to surgically remove it, and I didn't like that idea. My legs hurt, I can't walk, and I am so uncomfortable.

My little Camden has a bad case of impetigo he caught from his brother and his face looks terrible. I know he's miserable, too. We are both taking abx.

And for any of you out there thinking about getting a Mirena, think again. Research. Because I have had a miserable five years!!! Lastly please pray they can get it out and get this infection cleared up. The Flagyl makes me ill.

Used Toys=PRICELESS

My kids do not play with many of their toys. They would rather ride their bikes, or watch a movie. Sometimes they play games or put together puzzles, but I rarely catch them playing with the expenzive toys they BEG for. On a rare occasion. Today we went to Savers to get the kids some play clothes (Yes, I do buy play clothes there!) and the kids were awed by the used toys in the clear plastic sacks for $1.99. You would have thought that was the greatest thing ever. They saved my day, really because I had shopping to do and the priceless junk I bought kept them busy.

Also, on Saturday the boys got the greatest gift ever from Chris and Tammy (Scotty's cousin and his wife). Their son, Matt (Scotty's cousin) was killed this past October in a bicycle accident. A drunk driver ran over him the day before his birthday. He was 19. You can read about it here. I am sure if you live in our area you may remember. This has been very hard for Matt's parents and sister. I can't imagine their pain. They have bought a chunk of land and they have built their dream home in honor of him. We spend alot of time their with the kids, riding 4 wheelers and enjoying the scenery. Anyhow, Chris called Scotty on Saturday and told him that he had a gift for the boys. When we got it and I opened it, I realized it was Matt's. It was a Nerf gun blaster (three of them) and the vests and ammo and other goodies. It may not sound like much, but the boys were SOOOO thrilled. They have played and played with them. They know they were Matt's, so they are taking good care of them for him. :) The boys have been so occupied with shooting each other that they have left my stuff alone. Thanks Chris and Tammy! That was so thoughtful!!! And please, remember their family in your prayers.

Ok, so I need to know. Hubby says this is tacky but the kids really loved it. It's the fishbowl sink from the estate sale. I think it will look cute in the kid's bathroom. But, who knows? I may be wrong. Opinions, please!!!

Thursday

Yesterday morning, my dad's wife, Sharon called and invited me to go to a broker's open with her. I was kind of leary taking three slightly borderline WILD children into expensive homes.(She said it would be fine to bring them!) That could be a potential nightmare. But there were three broker's opens scheduled with lunch and dessert all on the same street. These homes were all historic, which I LOVE. They were all upwards in price...way more than I would ever pay, but I love to look at old homes. So off we went to Little Rock to go look. The homes were AMAZING. I'm talking gorgeous tile fireplacs, 12 foot ceilings, grand staircases, thick moldings, charming to die for kitchens, exposed brick, transoms above the windows, stained glass....Sharon had never been to this part of Little Rock(She's from Cali) and I had pre warned her it gets kind of rough over there....If I was going to pay that much for an amazing home, it sure would not be there. But I loved looking. The kids got free lunch and dessert. I am sure we were the listing agent's nightmare. We pretended I was a potential buyer for her. The kids were good for the most part, they have looked at many houses over their short lives and have been to many open houses, so they are kind of used to house touring. The kids took full advantage of the free sandwiches and dessert. All in all, they were pretty good. The last one we went to had an estate sell going on. Everything was for sale. I fell in love with two reupholstered leopard chairs. They were in their formal dining room and she wanted $125 apiece for them. We tried to talk her down, and she woudn't come off the price, but after I talked with Scotty, he agreed to let me buy them. They will be perfect in the dining room. I also scored a hand painted fish bowl sink from Mexico to put in the kid's bathroom. I really love it, but Scotty said it was tacky. I tried to post a pic, but blogger won't let me upload it.

Addendum: Ok, so this was from last Thursday and I have had no internet since then. (AGAIN.) I am getting so irritated.

So, it's now Monday and I hope everyone had a fabulous day!

Lunch at the park with Grammy

(I just totally realized I needed to resize my photos!) I will do it later, I have got to get the kids ready for church.)


Today the kids and I decided to go to the park for lunch and we invited Grammy. We had a nutritious, yummy, (not so much) lunch from McD's. The kids were a little off today from their normal selves. Usually at the park, they are running everywhere wanting to play. Today they just swang on the swings. I think the heat is just too much. I thought today was cooler than it has been so it wasn't so bad. They like playing in the stream at the park. They were trying to catch fish. After the park, we went to Wal-Mart and each kid had a dollar to spend. I am trying to teach them the value of a dollar, and how far it can go. Or how far it won't go, if that makes sense. My kids lately have become very whiny at the store, wanting everything so I am trying to give them their own money to spend. After we left Wal-Mart (I bought a cute dress there) Laiken informed me she left her purse at the park. That girl and her purse. She carries lip gloss and a brush and I don't know what else everywhere we go. So we had to go back to get it. I will leave you with a few pictures from the park. Have a great Wednesday!!!!!

Mom and Kids



Cam and Laiken


My little ham



Mom, Cam, and Lai


Mom and I (I have being photographed next to her. She makes me look cow-like.)


Laiken and Camden



And in case anyone ever wonders, the reason Caden is not in as many pictures as much is because he hates it. Caden has Asperger's syndrome and is not very sociable. He usually is off playing by himself. :)

Picture

I love this picture!! It was taken in 2007, and I love the picture because I remember how happy my kids were that particular day.

Blog Hop

I thought I would participate in the Blog Hop. This week, on TUESDAY, 7/7/09, the theme is A FAVORITE PHOTOGRAPH. Post up one of your favorite photographs and a caption that tells the audience about it. Be sure to enter your own link to your own blog hop post as soon as the blog hop starts!***

Here's to you, Mrs. Clark!!!

Before I get off on what this post is all about.....which is my Memaw...

About my day--I started off sleeping in till ten!! I hate that. I have insomnia and I cant go to sleep at night then I oversleep. My memaw, the kids and I went to Arby's and on our way out I hit a parked car. The Commander smashed into a Suburban. I am so praying he doesn't file a claim. My driving record (two tickets) is holding me up with the foster care situation. I cannot believe I backed into a parked car. It knocked off my park assist sensor. Lovely....
My mom came over tonight and I cooked my favorite easy pasta dinner. It's one box bowtie pasta (I use the 1.00 Great Value from WM) butter, garlic, chicken, and tomatoes. Sometimes I add little bits of broccoli. To cut down on time I season up some chicken tenderloins plop them on the George Foreman, and cook the pasta. I cut the chicken all up and garlic it some more. Then I drain the pasta and add the chicken. I add a diced tomato, and about 3/4 stick melted butter with garlic and then I drown it in Parmesan. It takes about 15 min and the kids love it.
Then I made homemade lemon bars (which I am waiting to cool so I can devour)

Anyways, I just wanted to tell my Memaw how much I love her. She has her own way about her and is not afraid to tell anyone how she feels. She witnesses to the people in the checkout line. She tells everyone about Jesus, and holds nothing back. She tells my kids that she has old ears, so my kids tend to act good around her. She won't take whiny kids. I remember being swatted at when I was a kid for making sounds. She used to let me cook at her house. I loved that. She stands up super straight and is very tall. She is super skinny and has great posture. She doesn't eat much, she picks at her food. She takes a few bites, and that's it. I love having a hip, Jesus loving Grandma. She wears fashionable clothes, and looks very great for her age. In fact, all the women on my mom's side of the family age very well with very little wrinkling and gray hair. Please, Lord let me be like them!
My Memaw is always supporting me no matter what I do, even though I know she thinks I am a nut. (Im really not!)
Back in January, she had a photo shoot at my house to model her new dental implants by Dr. Jirik in Cabot. The photographer was amazing and it was so fun to watch her feel pretty. It was really a fun day. I just wanted to say I love you, Memaw! If you want to see a pic and an article about her teeth, click here!!!

Happy Fourth and my little Camden

A smorgasbord of July 2009 photos.

Hope everyone had a safe and happy fourth of July. We went to the lake to watch fireworks, and we had lots of fun. We stayed on the boat for hours. My camera battery died while we were on the boat, so I didn't get many pictures. I did get a pic of the beautiful rainbow after the rain. (see slideshow!) We had a cookout at Scotty's cousins house beforehand. I made my yummy Asian coleslaw and baked beans. Scotty made deer meat kabobs with peppers and cream cheese. I had a ribeye. :) I actually love to hunt but recently can't eat deer. I don't know why....I just ate my cow.

On Friday, we bought Laiken a new bed at Cleo's Furniture. Her headboard is white and pink and it was on sale for $79. She got a new pillowtop mattress on clearance for $99. So for under $200, she got a whole new bed, matress and boxsprings. She loves it. We just didn't want to spend alot.

Today is July 5th. One more month till August 5th, when my littlest man turns five. I am sad and happy, I am feeling a little nostalgic thinking about him being a baby. I miss it, he is growing up. I know it's not his Bday yet, but here's to being almost five....(This is gonna get long...Beware)
When I got pregnant, I was sad. I had an almost two year old, a seven month old and all I could think of was three babies in three years....and I did feel guilty for being sad. I had a friend who wanted a baby so badly at the time. (And before I had the 1st, I was told I couldn't have kids, BTW.)
I had a pretty easy pregnancy other than being huge. When he was born, Scotty and I decided to be the only ones in the delivery room because we were pretty sure he was the last. We wanted to have our moment with him. My epidural didn't work and so I was miserable. He was born @ 5:15 in the afternoon and was a tiny bundle of beautiful baby. (I kept dreaming he was ugly!) He had lots and lots of black hair, and I was so excited about that.I immedietely fell in love with this miracle. I love babies with hair. It was so long. He was an AMAZING baby......he rarely cried and slept alot, admidst the two year old and seventeen month old running around screaming. I breastfed him...I can remember taking them all to WalMart for the first time by myself, and coming home and crying. (I still do, sometimes!)
At birth, he was taken for a CT because he had almost no fontanel. (soft spot)
They were worried his head would become misshapen. After several visits to Children's, he was fine. And, his head is very bumpy now. I don't care because you can't tell unless he shaved his head.
At about seven months, he began having purplish and blue brusies all over his body and weird rashes. It scared me to death. I was scared to take him to the hospital, because I didn't want them to think I beat him. I just knew it was cancer or something awful. After lots and lots of testing, it was a platelet issue. It went away.
Camden was very happy and content, but we noticed he was slow. It really worried me. (Caden, my oldest, has Asperger's) so I thought Cam had a more severe case of autism. I was worn out with Caden at the time.(He was exhausting) (And Laiken had been a very sick baby) The Dr. told me that Camden was mentally retarded, more than likely. He had very low muscle tone, and was not meeting milestones as expected. Caden was already in therapy at a Day treatment facility, and so they urged me to get Camden is as soon as possible. So, at a year old my baby began speech, occupational, and physical therapy. I came to grips with having a delayed child. He was always happy, and smiling. He was so loving. He was a gorgeous baby. He had the blondest curly hair. And big huge blue green eyes. (they turned brown)
My family and friends became prayer warriors during this time. I was ok with it all. I felt at peace about it. But God saw otherwise. He have me a perfectly healthy happy little boy who by age 3, met all milestones, and caught up to his peers.
From that age on, he became a HANDFUL. He is all boy. He has the huskiest voice, and talks sooo country. He loves his mommy and daddy, but is a daddy's boy. He loves to hunt and fish, and ride bikes. He loves to be outside. He looks just like his mama, though! He is so cuddly and loveable and I am so blessed to be his mama! I love you, Camden William!!!!!!
