My last entry was in March, that was a long time ago i figured i would start blogging again after all im getting no luck on myspace.

Atleast i know i will actually get comments here. I figured if was going to come back today would be a good day. As some of you know i was moving into my home exactly a year ago when we bought this home.

So sadly no trick or treating last year.

But this year i must stress safety for your young trick or treaters.

How safe are you?
How safe are your children?
Is your neighborhood all that safe?
 
Is there something lerking? Find out here
 
 
Most of you know that i live in the country out of the 5 towns including the one i live in there are only 6 predators its nice to know that they are not that many close by.
 
When i searched my old address the thing lit up like a christmas tree.
 
You always want to think you have your children safe but do you really. Knowing is just the next step to being aware
 
 
Im sure some of you might have an idea or know where predators are located in your area.
 

Also check out www.familywatchdog.us   for a national predator registry to make sure you don't land on the wrong door step

Tips for treats

Make sure they are prepaird for the cool fall night to night

Make sure they have a responsable shaparon

Make sure they don't eat any candy til the get home

Make sure all candy is checked before eating

Make sure you bring a snack and or eat before they leave the house

Make sure they are wearing a reflective or light colored costume if not make sure they have some sort of light to be seen at night , flashlight/glowsticks/etc

Last but not least also the most important

do not walk up to a house that is not lit.

Feel safe knowing where they are so you can make the proper precaustions.

I hope everyone has a good night tonight.

* Friday Already *

Its been a while since my last post but for good reason.

Well last thursday was a long day. I got tired of waiting to see Donna i did everything i could do to progress my labor I MEAN EVERYTHING

i would walk up and down my stairs as much as possible

i would be the one ALWAYS taking the dog out

when i did i would walk around my front and back yard as much as i could

i was doing sitting lunges and kegals and pelvic tilts everytime i took her out

i took a nice warm bath and did some kegals

once i got out i did some more kegals pelvic tilts and sitting lunges

well after tiring myself out i went to bed around 10pm

and of coarse couldn't sleep so i started to do some kegals til i feel asleep

well at 10:30 i got a contaction checked my watch went back to sleep

jayson came up to bed and we di what most couples do when there in a bed together and not sleeping

then went to bed i was still getting contactions but not as often so slept them off

come 2:30am i just couldnt sleep anymore

so i got up and walked around the house timing contractions..

i have timed 5 contactions and they were 2-3 mins apart

not the 4-5 mins like i was told to call the dr at.

i woke up jayson he got hectic and was rushing i was all calm and cool..lol

i called the dr on call and she said okay..

so we went to the hospital

jayson had to stop at the local gas station

to get him a soda a candy bar and a can of chewing tabbaco

he came out and asked are u sure ur in labor(with kali i had false labor 3 days b4 i had her)

i said yes they checked me in hooked me up waited for 20 mins and then i was allowed to do what needed to be done

i walked for like an hour off and on wasnt working(did with kali though)

the rest of the time i set in the bed handled the contractions

then my water broke it slowly leaked and then created a forebag...a pinched pouch of ammiatic fluid

so the popped it still doing fine the contactions were flying by i was getting tired but still strong

then i dilated to the point were my body was saying push and it was real hard to control those

and let them just roll off .... i did 6 contractions with those and it was hard relaxing my butt muscles causing more pain.

and they kept doing cervix checks and donna was facing upside down i cant remember if that is her ead was facing down or facing up.....

anyway a couple hard contractions later my body is tired of waiting i have to push so i pushed and pushed

5 mins later she was out.....

now with kali the 3rd hard contaction i wanted to push and was told not to push like i was with donna in that case i had a little tear with kali

after her birth followed the rest of the good stuff but it just set there.....and it felt werid just throbing then it came out a few mins later.

with kali it came out with in seconds after having her.

after taking out the sac the examed me no tearing or any stitches needed.

The staff was so please how pleasent i was during labor and delivery other than the contractions i was completely fine and normal.

right after birth they wanted to make sure i didn't hemmorage so the first thing after bith the did was beat my tummy as a punching bag and bbbbbbbboooooooooy did that hurt.

i got up went to the restroom put on a wonderful diaper they changed my sheets i began to feed donna the "natrual way" and then the contactions from after labor and feeding her were painful

yah i know i went through labor DRUG FREE yet now the slightest bit of pain is killing me.

i once again got comfy and then had a bit of breakfest had maybe 30 mins of nappping and was moved to my new room for the next couple days

got lunch and ate breakfest,lunch and dinner on there scedule i even had salmon and it was goooooooooood

the staff was great with helping me they were a wonderful bunch of ppl and i thank the staff at

SHAWNEE MISSION MEDICAL CENTER SPECIAL ADDITION MATERNITY CENTER

by friday night as the family was going home i was so ready to depart with them i missed them so much

i didn't want them to leave me here.

by saturday jayson arrived and i had just woken up and needed to take a shower meet with my dr and donnas dr for discharging i wanted to leave at 9:30am but didnt leave til 2pm......

i came home to find that miss kali was being spoiled while i was gone.........not by mamaw but by daddy...shocking huh

she got 2 new pairs of shoes tennis shoes(that light up all around) and dress shoes socks a brand new twin bed(she had a toddler bed b4) and a tricycle but when i was home i just added to the spoiling and got her a play tent and a new toy

the first 24 hours of being home were hectic donna had a poop spree and was filling her dipers left and right with nothing but poop....

althought i still have no pain the bleeding is manageable its not alot like with kali the only pain i have is the occasional cramps from my uterus contracting back down to its normal size

over the coarse of the week things have gotten better i took donna in for her 1 week appointment

and she was doing just fine and weighed in at 7lbs and 4 oz

...::::Stats::::...

donna came in at 6lbs 14 oz 12 hrs of labor and 5 mins of pushing no drugs(yes thats right) upside down no tearing or stiches on thursday febuaray 23rd 2006 at 9:39am

kali came in at 6lbs 14 oz 15hrs of labor and less than 30 mins of pushing i had nu/morph(nubain and morphine) she came out the right way i had a slight tear with some stiches on tuesday november 25th 2003 at 10:25pm

I don't quite have pictures of donna just yet but i do have her website up if you would like to view it ,it has 2 pictures of donna up and 2pictures of donna and big sis up.

* Still Waiting *

Well my mother in law arrived on time it was her first time flying and she was not scared at all she got window seats the whole way and she said she was BORED...... if anything okay you heard it from a 50 year old first time flyer from herself......

She got her sunday afternoon not jet lagged just bored lol... Kali has adjusted to her quite well.....remember kali has not seen my husbands family since she could stablize her head.....she already says mamaw......and it all sounds to like mommy so it drives me batty....but it keeps kali outta my hair for a while and allows me to get things done i know that sounds bad but its nice break for a change...

Okay you know you can have the baby anytime now right(jayson says) i said yup i know............really i do know.....i have gained 35 lbs now and i feel that all to well i know i gained anywhere between 20-33 lbs with kali never 35 and its taking tole on my body and driving me nuts so im ready any day now......i have explored my options

Im hoping this baby comes out by wednesday is not no biggie i had kali at 38.5 weeks and i will be just that 2morrow and if thats the case this baby will be baking longer than kali.....don't have problem with that just don't want to have a big baby either....

I have explored my options of natrually inducing my labor some i know of some of which are new to me.

• Walking...climibing stairs
• eating spicy foods or pineapple
• having sex or sexual acts
• drinking castor oil

Okay i know walking helps didn't really know climbing steps did but it makes sense, i did not know eating spicy foods or pineapple .....i knew having sex (which is at the top of my list)  and im not going as far as drinking castor oil to induce labor.

I have also considerd about medically inducing labor.....on my due date(still yet to discuss with the doctor) i would really like to use that as a last resort because there are side effects like hemmorraging after birth stuff like that something im not really willing to taking a chance on.

I WANT TO GO AS NATRUAL AS I POSSIBLY CAN.

after birth.......birth control.

Well after this baby is born we had set out for jayson getting a vasectomy ....his dicsion not mine so i was like okay go on ahead well.........coming closer to the end of pregnancy i askedh im again.....he said he would handle it.....welp i  asked him just recently and we acutally got to disscussing it more and he said I don't want no one coming that close to me cutting me open......so other words he chickend out.

Well i looked up both female and male procedures for permanant sterliaztion there relitively done quite the same  except the incision site his is inbetween both organs mine is right under my belly button or on my abdomn the same place they would use for c-sections and there is no easy way to do mine they now have a "no-needle or no-scapel" to do male sterlization and only cut maybe a inch into the male organs with women its twice the size for the smallest incision and even longer for my abdomn....there is technally no reason why i can not get my tubes tied after this baby but theres a chance that it can come undone..........i am not willing to take that chance after labor when i can do so i have decided to go with the IUD the merina hubby is not comfortable with the dicison BUT my options are limited because i want to breastfeed this baby.....and im not going back on " THE PILL " screw that.

Well my due date is fast approaching and im awaitign my daughters grand apperance anytime now.....as of the last weeks check up i am dilated to 3 cms there are 10 cms til i am fully dilated any one wanna take a stab at

• How long it will be til i go into labor?
• How long my labor will be?
• How long it will take the baby to be pushed out?
• How much she will weigh?

let me give you an idea to help you guess......

1. I was a week and 3 days shy from my due date with kali
2. I labored 15 hrs with kali(women can labor from 1hr-3 days)
3. I pushed for a little less than 30 mins til kali was out(women on average push for 30mins-2hr)
4. Kali weighed in a 6 lbs 10 oz

Now it is said that,

 laboring is usually shorter than the last baby

The baby is bigger when born as well as the baby is pushed out quicker 2.

Hope this helps...

I am off to take a shower i have to take the dog to the vet to get shots and to see if she still has worms....

Til next time.....

ps. my next doctors appoinment is this thursday at 1:15pm and hopefully my last.

*Thursday at Last*

I went in for my doctors appointment as sceduled i signed in at 10:43am and my appointment was for 10:45am i set and wait and wait and wait.....til 11:20am i asked the receptionist how much longer she said 10 more mins......i said ooooookkay well 10 mins passed and she comes back with an announcemnet that anyone here for dr. rips she will be delayed....she had to go make a delivery well 30 mins later she comes back and were back on track i get into my appointment at noon and am getting nauseated i havn't eaten since 7am well i go in and get weighed i weigh in at 162 lbs  i weighed 163 with kali when i had her but didn't gain this much weight with her i have gained 34 lbs im like OMG i am fat. well the nurse say undress from waist down i know this like an old hat buy the time i do that and the dr. comes in kali says she has to go pee..........ummmm im in no postion to walk outta this room nakie butt and all to take my daughter to the potty the dr. was nice enough to take her for me and she comes back praising her quite abit and was shocked how well she did and asked me how long has kali been potty trained i said she was 22 months old....she just needed help off the potty and needed a boost to wash her hands everything else she did on her own.....well she listend to the babies heartbeat and checked how long i was then checked my cervix.....im gonna spare the details needless to say i am still the same since last pelvic exam......which puts my mind at ease i get home call my husband and mom and my mother in law and put there minds at ease as well.....

I went to my dr. last week and she told me some good yet not so settling newsabout my pregnancy.

well i am 3 cm dilated im sure some of you didn't need to know that, and that i might not make it to 2 weeks. Given my current pregnancy i carried kali for 38 weeks. She also thinks that my labor will be faster as well and this baby is small im hoping for a 7lb baby kali was 6lbs 10 oz

and since my visit i had some labor pains but fortunately have not had them this week. phew. and i might have a possible hernia............and i am 19....boy my body has deffinitely taken a beating.

why do u ask am i not so thrilled with being dilated well my back up is on vaction til the 19th of this month with her family and my mother in law wont be here til the 19th. I really want my husband to be there holdign my hand throug hthe delivery. I would like to hold my daughters hand as i walk the halls of the maternity center.

Next doctors appointment is this thursday wish me luck.

I also have some photos i want to post of kali and the new puppy but don't have the time. I am sorry i do not have anymore belly photos. More to come in the next couple of weeks.

Its not wednesday i know

I promised you a belly picture last wednesday and i didn't pull through wednesday was a long day so was this wednesday but i have dedicated all day to getting this done. Its not a 10 weeks belly pic but it is a 11 weeks belly pic. I dunno as far as doing a Newsworthyness News this friday either i have alot of stuff to do. Since the car has been running i have been driving it every day which is not good with the OUT STANDING GAS PRICES i mean come on its bad enough our home and truck are making us broke and my HUGE EATING  but gas 2 i mean come on hubbys works about 30-45 mins away from the house and we have no other choice but for hubby to go to work and get money. My daughter has gotten very fond of my tummy as well she knows theres a baby in there but she still needs to learn that we dont always have to lift up mommies shirt all the time. I got a Heartbeat moniter to hear the babies heartbeat im still not far enough along to hear it but im so hopping soon i want kali to hear it. I think it will bring her closer to the baby. Other than that im good i have no aches and pains and i think its because kali keeps me up and going i havn't been exercising like i should and really want to i maybe am able to do it 1 a week the only thing i have been getting is a huge eating habit i love food it looks yummy look out. I have been getting light head and my blood circulation is poor, i have been gettin bad heartburn i didn't get that til 3rd trimester with kali. <guys advert ur eyes>My bewbies have grown as well hubby cant see it but i can. I grew one cup size with kali so i might go up another with this baby.<okay guys u can look again> My dr. appt was moved it went from Aug 26th to Sept 9th it soooooooo sucks. My parents are coming to town from Sept 3 to Sept 11. So they will be present for my appt. I dunno how i feel about that........

I think thats all that i can remember. Im gonna be lazy today i still have stuff to get done still as well as make dinner and go to the store and pick up a few things. Im also very stinky 2. im fuming lol. Well talk to you all later.

* There's some coffee on the stove if you need it*

Well its been a week i thought about posting more after my last post but was 2 busy and couldn't find the time i have tons of news for you guys.

Well after a few months of reading to my daughter i have finished book one of the Harry Potter series. I amto start reading book two Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets tonight. I read 1 chapter a night to my daughter for bedtime.  I have had the book for since i was in 8th grade tee hee but have never finished it. Until now, i must say not bad different from the movies that for sure so go out and buy the books.

I am now 10 weeks pregnant goooo me. I am as of Monday 10 weeks and 1 day pregnant. I will be posting belly pics this wednesday so look for progress. Me a lazy person did not take pictures while i was 9 weeks but that catches us up and i will be posting my 10 weeks belly shots.

The car is finally fixed the brakes work but they need to stiffen up yet. I drove BY MY SELF to the store well its just up the road but. I didn't have kali with me and i didn't have jayson over my shoulder buy this dont buy that hurry up. Although i was only picking up a few things it was a big step for me. My first time since i have had my liscense for a year and to be driving MY OWN CAR.

This weekend was great we finally got away from our boring drab life of tensed to are ear lobes and unable to do anything fun because of limited money we decided to catch a few movies at our nearest drive-in  which was an 1hr and 7 mins away the place opend at 7pm it was 6:40 and we had to pick up dinner. Well we got there and it wasn't even packed yet ppl just started packing in at 8pm

It only cost 7 bucks per adult and children 12 ans under free. This weekends features were.

Dukes of Hazzard

Stealth

War of Worlds

Dukes of Hazzard:

i must say pretty good i liked it. But Missy Daisy Duke was her usually frisky self. The actor jessica simpson did a fine job but there was nothing wrong with her waredrobe there was nothing she wasn't showing that she wasn't already showing before she was married and innocent.

Only thing she was showing was cleavage and she was not wear daisy dukes she was wearing " Hot Pants" big differnce they did not show her but it was not hanging out but it did show off her shape.

Uncle Jesse did a good job it looked like they made him put on some weight but u can tell movies is not his thing but he is the infamous " Willie Nelson" after all.

The other dukes did pretty good 2. Over all i just wished they stuck to the time the original the tv series was based on

Stealth:

On the other hand was ALOT BETTER THAN THOUGHT. Theres not much to say there it turned out better than they advertised.

War of the Worlds:

I was very very displeased by this movie they should have stuck to there guns on this movie. It maybe a PG rating movie but i will NEVER EVER EVER allow my daughter to see this movie. It just didn't make sense im not going to say much.

But this is all left open for disscussion if u have seen these movies and would like to comments on them

My latest breaking news.

Famous Newscastor Peter Jennings Died on Sunday with his battle to lung cancer. It couldn't of happend to a better person in my mind. He is one of the many who should not have died when he did. I dont know if u have caught and of his work or heard or seen any of it.

But he had reported that he had indeed had lung cancer he was a smoker and had quite and was off for 20 years although he did smoke during 9.11 tradgedy but who wouldn't it was a hard hitting ordeal.

I wished i had more but i don't

I am off and hope you all have a wonderful day i want to take kali to the library get a card maybe go to the pool today and park depending on todays weather. I am off

Your Hawaiian Name is:

Kai Kalia

Okay im back and it's Wednesday!

Not alot has changed here just the usal house work take care of kali so on so forth but i must admit my house work has declined since i have been preggy and its bad enough because im not a good house keeper period. I dunno why i just always have been and its sad really i have tried different things it just doesn't work. I have backed up dishes and i don't wanna hand wash them or just dont have the time 2 do so i have to sweep my floors BAD and i don't know when the last time i mopped my living room floor was i mean its not bad there are spots but i REALLY hate mopping the whole thing. I have maybe a few loads of laundry they get washed and dryied but NEVER brought upstairs. I don't know when the last time i whiped my counters off in the kitchen.  

As for other things Im gonna try and bring my blog out of inactive i just get upset when i loose my blogs that just make me so angry

I mean i had a really good blog going it was all news worthy and everything it had news at home news going on in the world as well as odd news as well. I had a huge thing going on for the opening of devils rejects i mean i advertised that movie for i dunno how long and i didn't post a blog for the opening...... I also had celeb news as well as my updates from other news. I had the top 10 list of books as well as  bunch of movies to be coming out in the next year or less but after i had lost the post the tralior started coming out for it. Its gonna be a really long time b4 i come out with a blog that jammed packed with news again.

But Like i said i am bringing my blog out of inactive im only going to try and post 1-3 times a week. I know its alot less but im sure the ppl out there who read my blogs on a daily basis wonder what happen . That and im cooped up in the house the next 2 days i have stayed in the house for much longer but usually because of other reason mainly just didn't want to go outside or be lazy.

I was given specific instructions from hubby that the landlord and some land scapers were doing some work around the house and he didn't want me in the way of everything the only time i can go out it to get the mail other wise i am 2 stay in 

Which is okay no biggie.  Im also cleaning out my photos if u havn't noticed. And adding more to come.

Well back when i moved from ohio to indiana and than to minnesota my parents bought a 2nd car i mean it wasn't much 2 look at but it was 2nd car a 1991 chevy lumina car and they used it til they moved from ohio to indiana and it just set it still had ohio tags than when i moved from indiana to minnesota my parents gave it to me as a gift. YAY! right............wrong it set and set for about a year til now and we had the money to get tags put on them only 59 bux i was shocked than we went to go put insurrance on it 86 bux for 2 months not bad then we got the parts for it that it needed back brakes and rotars only 90 bux once again not bad well hubby hates working on car so he went in heard first with a negitive atitude once he struggled and finally got the parts on.....i drove it it was all good until the brakes went out.........the car had been setting so long that we also now need calipers on them and MAYBE just MAYBE and master cyclinder i was so happy when the car was up and running that i was the offical owner of a 1991 chevy lumina my first car and well my dreams shattered when we ran into the talk of more money for the car for MORE parts i was like omg.......so its gonna set until we get the money to fix it RIGHT this time. i also called my agent to let her know that we didn't exactly have the money we thought we DID for the car so im gonna set and wait. Did i tell u the tags for the car that were on there expire in 2002  and its 2005. 

Just when i think things were looking up........

Also Wednesdays are gonna be now called

" In the Womb Wednesdays"

Okay i know kinda cheesy right but it was all i could think up

I will be answering any questions about pregnancy if u have them on this day and posting them u can remain anonymous i will also be sharing some pregnancy tid bits from what going on during this week stuff like that i will also be showing my preggy belly off 2 i do have some pregnancy pictures at 8 weeks i am going to show u i am 1 week behind i know.
