A GREAT idea!!

My dear friend Karen shared this on FB and I wanted to share it here because it is so sweet!
From a friend of mine: CHRISTMAS in November. My sister-in-law, Cindy has a friend whose 5 year old son, Noah, is in his last stage of a 2 1/2 yr battle with Neuroblastoma cancer. The family is celebrating Christmas next week and Noah's wish is to get LOTS of Christmas cards. The simplicity of this request brought me to tears.· Please send cards to: Noah Biorkman, 1141 Fountain View Circle, South Lyon, MI 48178
I can't believe this! My little guy is 5 and can't wait to "unload" his wish list to Santa! That is so touching! I can't wait to sit down with Jake and make a card for that little boy!

Long Time NO Blog!

Well I feel like I have fallen off the Blog Bandwagon! But I am slowly trying to get back on! We have some New News.. We are OFFICIALLY having a Baby GIRL!!!!!!!!!! CRAZY HUH?!?!?! We are VERY Excited! No we don't have any names picked out but Jake has been helping and coming up with some VERY cute names! Of course he does say Batman, Spiderman ya know but it has been WAAAYYY Easier making a list of girl names than boys! We only had a total of 5 names on our boy list with Jake! And when we do pick our names we don't tell anyone, SORRY. So it's just here is our baby... fill in the blank! Jesse feels like you can't name them till you see them, so we pick 2 names we take to the Hospital and then decide. But for now it's still list mode!
We had a good Halloween! Jesse was off work which was GREAT cause last year he missed it! Jake was a Vampire! My little Edward!! He picked it last year and NEVER changed his mind! We have enough costumes to start a small store and that's what he picked, and whenever anyone asked him he always said Vampire! Jes and I dressed up like Pirates.
Things have been crazy and hectic! Jake tells everyone that his "My Mommy is fat cause she's pregnant! And she throws up ALL the time!" it's pretty funny. But I HAVE been throwing up A LOT!! I swear cause of my endometrosis and PCOS being pregnant is the only way I can lose weight! I'm down 20 lbs! I am 22 weeks, that's like almost one pound lost a week! I go in to the DR's in 2 weeks and they said they HAVE to see increase.. I'm trying.
Jesse got "promoted" Well in the only way WE could get promoted. He should be making more money, different hours, recognition and out of his old position! BUUUUTTT what WE got was He is working 2 Jobs! SAME Pay, same everything except working 2 jobs in 2 different departments! AWW Ain't life GRAND!!!!!!!!! This ALWAYS happens to him! the Boss's find out he knows so much and cashes in on it, Spanish, computers, accounting, whatever he can do they ask him to do it, but do they pay him more, show him respect?? I DON"T THINK SO! They just take advantage of him all the time! When my mom left her job here in AZ they had to hire 3 people to replace her and all that she did!! But she wasn't paid for everything she did! Not fair.
We hope everyone is doing ok! We are looking forward to the Holidays and NO matter what I love my family and they are what keep me going! My Husband and my sweetest son are my life! My boys and a sweet baby girl coming to complete our family is what I am thankful for this Year and every year! Happy Holidays!

If you can't laugh.... you'll proabably just cry

SO being pregnant is wonderful but hard and scary and gross but the reward is Amazing! And you know what they say laughter is the best medicine. On Babycenter.com which is a GREAT website for all stages of kids lives and a great source of info! They have a link for "What I wish I would've known.. pregnancy, birth and after" and It was so funny. I TOTALLY remembered the 1st time around and ALL the things No one EVER told me! Babies stay scrunched for a long time. And when you only have 1 child You can't POSSIBLE know ANYTHING, like when my child had acid reflux or an allergic reaction-same response was told to me over and over--"this your 1st child isn't it?" I am a well educated woman with an amazing 6th sense but seeing how I ONLY had 1 child I was brushed off. But along with no one trusting me and a scrunched baby there were a ton of things no one ever told me, like these confessions "How bad the forgetfulness and mental dullness would be. Stupidity has been my worst symptom!" — Cary"
About the constipation and flatulence. My husband was convinced that someone kidnapped his real wife." — Anonymous*** Jesse has been dying because my mental alertness is WAY down this time. It's SO bad trying to have a conversation is HARD work! He's NEVER seen me struggle like this... it's SO bad it's like you can see the wheels churning when we're talking. The other one is all about the embarrassment of your bodily functions and the lack of control! so far so good this time around. The other comment that made me laugh was this one..."To have a bag packed about two months ahead of time. I went in early and my husband ran home to get some stuff for me. He brought me thong underwear!" — Devan**What a typical guy!! i loved it!! Just imagining those HUGE diapers they give you after labor and thong underwear just makes me laugh out loud! TOO FUNNY!!

Funny email I had to post!!!

The other day I went downtown to run a few errands. I went into the local circle K for a snack. It was a payday bar and a diet coke in a plastic bottle-not in a can. I was only there for about 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 minutes. When I came out, there was this cop writing out a parking ticket.

You know me and parking tickets. I said to him, 'Come on, man, how about giving a retired stroke victim a break'? He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. His insensitivity annoyed me, so I called him a 'PIG.' He glared at me and then wrote out another ticket for having worn tires. So I proceeded to call him a 'doughnut eating NAZI.' He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he wrote a third ticket when I called him a 'moron in blue'. This went on for about 10,11,12, maybe 13 minutes. The more I talked back to him the more tickets he wrote. Personally, I didn't really care.
I came downtown on the city bus, and the car that he was putting the tickets on, had one of those bumper stickers that said, 'Obama '08.' I try to have a little fun each day now that I'm disabled with the stroke. The doctor tells me that it's important for my health.

Laughter is the best medicine!!

Going Private

Unfortunately this is going to be a big pain and everything but we are going to go private. if you wish to still be updated on what's going on please let me know and give me your email address and I will contact you with all the info! Sorry if this is going to cause any problems but this being open to other people are causing MAJOR problems for me and my family! Which is REALLY sad. if they spent a 1/4 of the time they spend causing problems and spent it getting to know us and what we've been going through these past 4 years maybe they wouldn't do and say the things they do... once again this won't happen right away but i really appreciate it. Thank you to those who support me and my family!
