Its going to be a long one..

so my Laynie says to me the other day "Mommy when I get bigger and bigger does that mean I am going to forget everything like you do?" haha I laughed pretty hard because I must be coming up on another birthday.

Ok so here goes I feel like i havent posted a real message on here in awhile and I am way over do. I should be sleeping right now but Its not that easy to get on here. I have a cold and I am working at Nascar all weekend with my sister so this is an official week with ZERO days off. Yikes, but the extra money is always nice.

I feel like I have been very productive this last month I finally sold the last of my Victorias Secret inventory on ebay, and I have moved on to my next ebay project.
We also sold the boat today!! Which is bitter sweet, it needed to happen but there were a lot of fun times on the boat.



My sweet husband was trying to make up for the lack on gifts for the last 2 valentines days in a row so this year he surprised me a suite at the Palazzo on the concierge level along with tickets to the show La Reve. It was so nice to go on a date together, we got engaged on val day, so it was a good reminder of why I fell in love with him from the beginning. Thanks you so much Matt!!

La Reve show

My lil Laynie started her ballet class again with her friend Hailey. It is so cute to watch her play with her new friend. She told me the other day that they would be friends forever. I thought it was adorable. Im glad that she has someone that she can get her energy out with.


Mr Peyton is standing up to everything and I dont think it will be long before he was walking everywhere. He also is getting his top teeth I guess the better to eat his birthday cake with. Its hard to believe that it has been almost a year. Wow how time flies.



Rachel (my sister) gets to find out what the baby is this week and I am so excited for her and Chris. I know she will be a good mom.

I am so grateful for my mom, she is such a blessing at times. Lately I have been working so much along with Matt that she was always been there to watch my kids and help me out. She does not complain but truely enjoys the time with them. I love you MOM.

Life seems to be throwing a lot of wrenches at me lately, but I have managed to keep on truckin and try to keep smiling. At times I feel like I am at my breaking point but then I look at all of my blessings and somehow it makes it all feel better. I am so blessed and I know that the lord loves me and everything happens for a reason. I love my family, and it will all work out the way it is supposed to. Until then I guess I should probably go to bed....

So much to catch up on...

Wow it feels like forever since I have blogged but so much has been happening and I havent had the time or been able to stay awake at night to do this. So this is long over do and I feel like I have a lot on my mind right now.

We were able to take a fun little trip to California for a few days which was nice to get away. It was fun to get the cousins together because they dont see each other often. Laynie and her cousing Aubryn (they are only hours apart) had their first sleep over which was super cute. I had fun visiting everyone and doing a little shopping of coarse.

Laynie first sleepover

I cant believe my little Peyton is going to 10 months in a few days.. I feel like the time has just flown by. He really is a mommas boy which I love. It is nice when he only wants me sometimes. It doesnt matter what kind of day I am having one little smile from that guy and he melts my heart.

cutest buns ever (yes they are chunky and he is short but look who his parents are)

My Laynie is getting so big and sometimes I feel like she is 3 going on 30. She reminds me of myself as a kid so grown up for her age. She says the funniest things. We are getting ready to sign her up for ballet and gymnastics again.

like father like daughter

I am trying to hang in there my stress level is at an all time high but I know that there is a light at the end of tunnel and it will get better. I have the love of my life, 2 beautiful kids, the gospel and a roof over my head so life is not that bad. I am back on the wagon for weight watchers and we are doing BIGGEST LOSER at work so watch out because nothing to motivate to get the rest of this baby weight off like $$$$.

Lastly I have some bad news my cousin Kyle Sims passed away last week after a long battle with cancer. It was very hard to say goodbye to him because he was so young and was leaving a wife and his son behind but I know that he will not be in pain anymore. For those of you who had a chance to know him know that he will be missed. He was like no other. May the lord be with you Kyle.. we love you


Kyle Sims 4/19/1978 - 1/26/2009
