Miss B and Mr B Pictures
What is that?!
Daddy's girl
Ribbit Ribbit
What a handsome little man
She is such a good big sister. She is always trying to help me with Blake. She will try and give him his paci or cover him with a blanket. The ladies at daycare tell me that she is always trying to help with the other babies that are there. They absolutely adore Bayleigh. When she has been away for a while they tell me they will ask each other if one knows when Bayleigh is coming in. :)
Our fearless child
She is such a daredevil
Look at Meeeeeeeeee!
My New Baby
Isn't he sooooooo pretty?! I'm trying to see if he's related to Dun Gotta Gun b/c of his coloring and eyes. They breed this specific trait in their horses and he's a HUGE reining horse. So I'm excited to see. He's not registered b/c of a divorce but I'm hoping I can at least get the papers on his dam and sire. He needs more weight and muscle and a lot of fundamental training, but since I have BOTH the Clinton Anderson Fundamentals and Intermediate (Matt bought that as my push presant :)), he will be an outstanding horse. AND the Advanced series comes out this fall too!! HAPPY HAPPY Girl! I can't wait to get him! Just wanted to show him off.

Long overdue post
Wow, where to begin? Oh yes. Here is the after photo of what happened to Miss B when she jumped.
So Not Cool Mom LOL
Things are going great here. Blake is getting much better every day. He is starting to smile more and really interact. Sleeping is getting better too. Finally started to get a schedule down during the day. At night it's getting better as well. He is either sleeping 4-5 hours or if he has been awake most of the day, he won't wake up until 4 or 5 in the morning when we put him down at 730pm. He is such a stubborn little guy though. Sometimes for nap time I have to let him cry it out and he will cry, like literally red in the face cry, for 20 minutes. He won't give it up. It's funny sometimes, but it gets on my last nerve too. He loves to be held, yes he has already figured out how to get what he wants. He's getting really good at it. LOL
When we went to the doctor for him back at the beginning of June he weight 13 lbs and was 24 inches long. Can you believe that?! He is going to be big and is going to be bigger than Bayleigh is in no time. We measured her the other day (we have one of those height charts) and she was only 32 inches at 22 months old. LOL Yeah, Blake is going to be huge! Haha Bayleigh doesn't have a chance when they are older.
I swear, Miss B is getting smarter by the second. That child amazes me every day at how smart she is. She knows her please and thank yous, I love you - then added all by herself "Momma Dadda." We were shocked when she said that. She has started to kick the soccer ball. I LOVE IT! She is starting to speak in sentences too. It's awesome!
Matt and I are doing well. We just got debt free so we are thrilled about that. So we celebrated with a bottle of wine last night. :) We are so excited about our Pensacola trip next week. I cannot tell you how bad Matt and I are looking forward to this trip. We are going to have so much fun. Grandma and Grandpa are coming Wednesday to watch the kids until we get back. I know they cannot wait to see them. You both will be shocked at how big Blake is already.
Since we are debt free now, Matt let me get a horse. I am so excited. He is so pretty. He's basically a project horse but I plan on keeping him a long time. He's only 4 and needs more weight but when he matures he's going to look so good. He comes from cutting bloodlines and I'm so excited about him. He really tucks his but when you ask him to "whoa", more than Koda did. Sylia came with me this time and looked at him and said he looks sound and his conformation is really nice. Which makes me feel a lot better about him since I spent a lot on Koda at the vet trying to figure out her issues. I can't wait to get him. Hopefully this weekend. The trainer that has been working with him said that I have a really nice seat and was surprised at how well I rode. He thought the horse was going to be too much for me, but was happy that he saw I could handle him. The horse kind of took off on me but I got him under control. I'm so happy about him.
Ok, I am going to upload photos later tonight. I PROMISE! I've uploaded some on facebook, but I am being summoned b/c Blake won't go to sleep. :)

It's been a while
So I know I haven't posted in a long time. I'm sorry! It's just that at night when Matt gets home from work, we eat then I head to the barn then it's off to the gym after that. By the time I get home it's almost 9 and I take a shower then I'm in bed b/c I want to get a few hours of sleep before B2 wakes up. He's been doing really well at night, which I am thankful for. It's still tough getting up though. Matt has been wonderful with taking turns and not complaining. :) Thank you hunny! I just got back from NC and guess what, I left my camera at my house! UGH. B had so much fun though and MiMi just couldn't get enough. I got to see Nurya as well. We had a girls night and went downtown to some snooty clubs, but it was fun to be with her.
A BIG thank you to Jamie, Andrea, and Dana for coming to help Matt and for making this trip possible for me. It was so nice to be at home and see my family. I really appreciate you all taking the time to come and watch Blake. It means the world to me. Love you guys!
Anyway, just thought I would give a quick update. Matt went running a little bit ago and I just got back from mine. I tripped and fell...it was great! LOL I am still laughing at myself. I still got it (B/c I never had good balance in soccer either) We are about to watch True Grit. Excited! Looks good. Matt and I LOVE westerns. Plus we love Jeff Bridges too. I will try to get some pictures up this weekend.
Have a good Friday Eve!

My Saving Grace
So I forgot to mention that last week how Rosie rescued me. It was Wednesday evening and I had had a bad night with Blake the night before and the whole day. I was tired and had hardly any sleep. Well around 7pm someone came knocking on my door. It was funny b/c I was thinking that if it was some solicitor or some Jehovah's witness crap I was going to go off. LOL I opened there door and there is Rosie with a smile on her face telling me to basically get lost for a little bit and that she would watch the kids. It meant so much to me and I almost cried...really...but of course I wouldn't let her see that. :) I put on my running shoes and went for a run/walk. It felt really good to get out and get away for a little bit.
When I got back, she had done my dishes, which I was so embarrassed b/c they were stinky. LOL Then afterward she and I talked for a while and it was so nice to have some adult company and get things off my chest. She knew exactly where I was coming from...sort of. Haha But she and I are a lot alike. She isn't a stay-at-home mom either. She, along with me, can't stay couped up in the house all day with kids. She told me that when she thinks of me she thinks of glamour, b/c I always like dressing up and make-up and all that jazz. And I don't really get to do that b/c I don't really have anywhere to go or a reason to really get dressed up. But she said she understood and as I said, it was so nice to have my girlfriend over to vent.
So thank you Rosie! I love you and I owe you one. If you ever need met to watch the kids or ANYTHING, let me know. You are the best. :)

The past week...
Was NUTS! Matt left Monday for NO for a couple of days for a short duty assignment. It sucked. Just to summarize, I was exhausted. Blake didn't have a great night Tuesday night and Wednesday I thought I would going to have to be admitted to the insane asylum. Haha. But I got through it in the end. It was just really hard. Luckily Miss B had daycare and spent some time there which gave me a break for a couple of hours to tend to Mr B. When Matt got home I was so thankful...and mad. I know I shouldn't have been mad at him, but I was and it was only b/c I was just drained and pushed to the max. I wanted to cry. I did cry a few times while he was gone b/c I thought I wouldn't get through it. I support him totally and know that that's his job. I just told him not to leave again like that until the kids were a little bit older.
Blake is still fussy, especially in the evening about 5-7 pm, when we put him down. He does great at night though. We are still on a 3 hour schedule...we usually put him down about 7 or 8 and he won't wake up until 12 or so, then it's 3 then it's about 7am. So it's not bad, just that Tuesday night I had been up since 3, every hour, and just couldn't figure him out.
When Friday came, my friend Melissa came in town to visit so she, Eric, and Shaun came over for dinner and some drinks then I went out with them here in our part of Houston. We had a good time. Since Matt had gone for two days he said I could go out while he watched the kids. :)
Shaun was off somewhere..LOL Cellphone pic too, sorry.
Saturday came and we just hung out at the house then I met up with Melissa, Eric and Shaun again to go out with them in downtown Houston. WE HAD A BLAST! It felt so good to be out with friends from home. I was excited to wear my LBD...Little Black Dress. It has been so long since I have really been able to dress up, so I took full advantage since we went to some pretty snazzy clubs.
Yesterday Popo and Grandma stopped by along with Fran, Merlene and Olan. They hung out for a little bit then went to meet some friends. The guys went fishing this morning then got back early b/c it was too windy to fish. So we all went for mexican food and Margaritas. Grandma and I looooove margaritas..we even had two at lunch. Haha. It was so great to see them. :)
I am exhausted again today. I think the weekend has caught up with me. I am going to go hang out with Matt and Miss B. I put Blake down early since he was fussy and tired too. He just fights it so bad. He will sleep for like 30 min then wake up in the afternoons. He has been really good about after his bath staying asleep. (Knock on wood) I hope I don't jinx myself. LOL
