Found Some!

Well just my luck. My sister had downloaded SOME of my pictures on to our computer at home on Christmas. Here a just a couple that I found. I mainly wanted to show my dad's wonderful tatoo. He is the only guy I know that could get away with this! :)Me, Ky, and the dada

Gone..

Well my Christmas was fanstactic, I would post pictures BUT guess what.. My car gotten broken into and my camera is now with some guy or girl who knows doesn't know anyone in pictures but I guess needed some quick cash to make. Yes my camera got stolen with not only Christmas pictures on it but pictures of my dad and Karter that I will never be able to replace. Many of you should know that my dad lives in Hawaii and we only get to see him about every 6 mos if THAT.. We had taken Karter sledding and my dad was the camera man which makes the video's so much more fun and hilarous because he can hardly speak english sometimes (in other words he is a MAJOR F.O.B). It also had pictures of a wonderful experience I had on Christmas Eve. I am just so hurt that someone could take something so important to me. I dont understand how people can take something that isn't their's and feel fine about it. Not only did my camera get stolen but my window got busted out and my friends purse got taken. She had already had over $600 charges on her credit card. Luckily she will be refunded for those charges and got her purse and wallet back. Its just the fact of feeling so violated and taken advantage that both her and I wish it wouldn't have happened. I am just so upset at the world and what it has come too..

Past the venting, I really and honestly had an amazing Christmas.. I was surrounded by all my loved ones and got to experience the amazing gift of giving. On Christmas eve a co-worker of mine (Desi), Santa, and I got to deliver Christmas to the most AMAZING and STRONGEST person I have ever known. Her name is Stacy and she used to be my old lead here at work. I have never met someone as kind, as giving, and as strong as her. She had found out that she had a brain tumor and that it was stage 4 cancer. They had to do surgery to get most of it out but couldn't get all of it. She has 3 beautiful kids that needed a great Christmas and some hope. It was the most amazing thing to take them Christmas presents and let them experience Christmas Eve with Santa there.. I got to spend Christmas with my dad and it was wonderful. Karter loves his Poppa. He had woke up on Sunday asking where Poppa was at, and I had to tell him he had left. I am glad that Karter loves his Poppa so much even with the scary tatoo on his face :)

Anywhoo.. I will end here, lol. I just have to say that I am very thankful that I have amazing family and friends and that stand by me when times are rough.. I am just so very thankful that something like this didn't happen while my most adorable son was in the car. Those pictures will never be replaced but I will have time to make new. I will for sure never be in the position again to have my car get broken into.

Happy Birthday!

I just wanted to say Happy LATE birthday to Megan Howell! She is the strongest person I have ever known.. This was taken on her birthday a year ago but HEY it works! Love ya Megs!

Christmas is here!!

I can't believe that Thanksgiving is already over and that Christmas is only 23 days away! We got to go up to my Aunt Kathy's for Thanksgiving. It was a lot of fun and I always look forward to hanging out with my family.

This is their amazingly huge back yard. I had to get a picture of Karter running around with his cousins because it reminds me of how much fun my cousins and I would have there. There are a lot of memories I have of sleeping on the deck after fireworks, jumping off the deck onto mattresses, and sledding down the hills during the winter. I love her house!Karter and I on Thanksgiving

Karter and I put up our little Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. We got some really cute ornaments from Target and he absolutely loved it!

Weekend Fun!

This past weekend we got to celebrate Adiel and Ashlea's Bday! It was really fun! We went to a place called Mikado's to eat (GREAT salmon) then went to my friend Chris's for a black and white party. I love these girls! Alisha, Danielle, and Me

Adiel, Me, Ashlea, and Alisha

I had to post this picture again of my eyes! :)

** I would like to say thank you to my wonderful mom for being so GREAT about watching Karter at the last minute. She is the BEST mom ever and I have no clue what I would do with out her! **

Gotta LOVE kids!

I just had to post how much I love my lil man Karter. He is so amazing for being such a tiny little thing and not knowing very much. Yesterday was probably the longest day of work, and just other things going on. Last night we were saying goodnight to eachother and I said I love you Karter. Then of course he says wuv you, then we were laying there in my bed (yes my bed, i let him sleep with me) and he turns give me a kiss and whispers wuv you. It was the cutest whisper I had ever heard. Even though he is so tiny and doesn't understand the FULL meaining of I love you, it still MEANS the world to me and makes all this hard work so very worth it! Sorry kinda mushy but I had to share!

Ash's Bday!!

Not this past weekend but the weekend before my cute lil ash got to come home for her Bday from Colorado! It was so much and I am so glad she came.. I am so proud of her and what she has overcome! Love ya ash!

Ash and me

Ash blowing her candle out (chopstick) on the wonderful cake me and adiel made her!

My Besties! We were missing Megs from all this action, but that was okay! We still love you tons and are praying for cute lil Peyton! We love you guys!!
ALSO over that weekend I got to go see my cousin Nicole's son Daniel get blessed. Yes we drove up Sunday morning and came back Sunday night. It was really awesome and I am so happy for them!

Last but not least I had to post this picture of Karter.. He has 3 BINKIES in his mouth! Gotta love the lil stinker!! Any help on getting him off of the dumb things, feel free to let me know!!

Crazy Weekend!

Here are some pictures from our fun weekend! It was so much fun taking Karter around on Halloween. He also got to come to my work on that Thursday and got SO much candy. On Halloween we didn't go very many places except to visit everyone that wanted to see him! He was the cutest lil Monkey I saw, but I really liked Carson's too!

This is my cute lil nephew Keon! Karter LOVES to give him kisses.

Cheesy smiles :)

Carson just chillin thinking Meg and I were so funny!

TThis is Carson Karter and Peyton! We got to go visit them for just a minute but it was really fun to just see them in their costumes. Peyton was so funny cuz we couldn't get him to smile! Carson just giggled the whole time while he laid there! :)

This is my lil monkey and of course his 'bb'

This is me and lish in 'jail' and yes that is my REAL eye! :)

CACA!!

So Karter is now getting to that age where he knows when he needs to go the # 2. I think it is so cute how he just runs and hides in a corner like its SO EMBARRASSING! The other night I was cleaning the room and couldn't see him anywhere, I looked in the closet and here he is doing the duty in the corner of my shoe closet. I asked him what ya doin, he goes I POO! Its just amazing how they learn so fast and how cute it is see them grow (not like pooping is really cute LOL)

This is him saying 'awww man mom you caught me!'

Now he is trying to distract me :)

This is the cutest little kid name Terick that lives down the the street from my grandparents. Karter loves to play with him and shares so well! Isn't that the cutest SMILE ever?

UH OH cheerleader!

So last week Karter got involved with the Hunter High Cheerleaders *Jenny Clark* and did a performance! He practiced all week and was such a lil stinker. I was so worried about him performing on game night *thrusday night* but he actually did so so good! It was seriously amazing for a 22 month old.. He pratcially copied all the other kids and did almost every move. He surprised us all! I couldn't get really close but here are some pics of the night.. Thanks so much Jenny for inviting us and being so so good with Karter! GOOD JOB baby boy!

Doing stretches!

He is right in the middle

Karter and Jenny! So cute!

Karter was scared to death of this witch!
On Friday I got to spend time with my friend Megan and her cute lil guy Peyton. We went to lunch then decided to head over to Gardner Village. We were bummed because they didn't have a whole ton to do for our rascals. I had a lot of fun and love getting to play catch up with Megs. We tried to snap some pictures of the boys it kinda worked but not really :)

Also my son learned to say SHUT UP! (its more like chut up), I know its horrible. He is not even 2 yet and its so hard to teach him that you can't say that word. The worst thing is we are trying to teach him to say auntie lisa (for my alisha) , everytime we say to say her name he points at her and yells SHUT UP! So any suggestions please help me! :)

well i got sucked in

So i have now gotten sucked into the blogging thing. I figure this will be the best way to keep in touch with most of my friends and family! Any suggestions on how to make this cute and fun send them my way as I have no clue what I am doing :)
