O my has it been a day in our house.
Makaylee was up at 3 this morning and didnt go back to sleep till almost 5. which made for a super long day for me. We went and looked at to places and got an application put in for one of them. and then we had a very emotional little girl all evening. pretty sure it is the teething, finally found a medicine that takes the pain away. One thing I have learned so far with a redhead is dont get to excited when you find a pain med that works because mostly likely six months down the road it will mostly not work the same way. I have also learned that she sure takes pain a little differently.

Life of us
It has been quite the few days lol. I have a little girl that seems to think that sleep is an option.
She sure hates sleeping and with that comes a tired and cranky momma. And the personality that she has is so amazing. I am loving the toddler stage already. I never once thought I could do this mom thing and even now I wonder if I am doing a good job. She is so smart and creative and makes me wonder sometimes how her brother would have been at this age.

F.R.O.G
what a wonderful message this morning in Church. Nothing like learning about John in another different way.
Got on timehop this morning and saw a post from a year ago. \
Do you know what F.R.O.G means as a Christian?
it stand s for Fully Rely On God. This was an awesome lesson that was taught at a ladies day done by our pastors wife last year. I was so much fun and really opened my eyes as to what I wasn't doing correctly as a Chritian women and what I needed to work more on.
As for our morning before church o my where do I begin. Lets see here first off Makaylee was in bed by 8:30 last night and up at midnight went back to bed at 1 this morning and was up again at 6 this morning. She had a screaming break down this morning over breakfast but that was quickly healed when she saw that I made scrambled eggs for breakfast. Then she got mad because she had to wear a skirt to church and to make it worse I honestly think this kid knows her colors already because when I pulled out the shirt she would be wearing she almost had a panic attack because it was pink. Dont get me started on how doing her hair went. That always leads to a fit being thrown because she hates having her hair done. We get to church and she got to go play in the nursery =) Happy baby for sure, She fell asleep in our Pastor's Wife's arms during service and woke up just before we left to head home.
Her Yaya and Peepaw had to leave to go home after church which always leads to tears. Luckily they will be back tomorrow night.
Have I told you all yet that I can pretty much repeat brown bear brown bear in my sleep ? O yes that would be my daughters favorite book. Never knew there was such things as a purple cat and a blue horse. But hey ya know I guess its whatever it takes to make a kid happy right ?
Cant even tell she had a shot at her 18 month check up Friday.

4/11/15
It sure has been a busy day, between say good bye to my parents and my in laws coming to town. But the crazy little redhead has been up to no good all day. She has 3 teeth coming in and you couldnt even tell. I got told the other day that is going ot be a smart little cookie. I turned and gee what makes you think that one lol
SO it is church in the morning. I am sure happy that God has blessed me with this life. Don't know where I would be if he had changed plans.

What a day lol
O my what a day it has been. Nothing like starting it off by waking a half hour before Makaylee's doctors appointment and still managing to get there 7 minutes early. She is 26 pounds and 33 inches long. So of it for sure today, she has learned that screaming will get daddy to jump lol. Also found out tonight from my sister in law that she is the rare type of redhead. I forgot to add to the post about her that she has blue eyes. As crazy as it sounds her color of blue changes depending on how onery we are. Today she decided that by helping daddy clean up her toys it meant we needed to dump out everything her put back. She also got to spent the evening with her cousins. Jumping on the trampoline is one of her favorites of course. I guess what cracks me up most about today is that she got a shot at her 18 month check up and it didnt even faze her. She has also figured out how to reord tv shows on her aunt and uncles tv,

Just a little about me
I have so far told you about my sweet son and his baby sister so now I guess it is time to tell you a little about me.
I am me lol I am sarcastic and crazy, I will you the honest truth. I am a Christian women that struggles daily on remembering that God is there. I am also the one to help ours rather its a good thing or not. I am 24 years old and honestly very proud of where I am to this day. Yes I have had my hard moments but who hasn't. I try very hard to make everyone happy and I have learned it is a little harder said then do. I try to make sure I study God's word everyday .
I love the color camo and loving being in the mountains. I am a small town country girl at heart and living here in Boise sure doesnt feel like home. I always put my husband and daughter first. I have an older brother.
That is me. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.
May God Bless you

My sweet redhead
My sweet little redhead is sure something you can call a miracle. She is 18 months old and I am telling you now she is smarter then she lets on.
If you would have asked me about two years ago I would have laughed at you when telling me I was going to have a redhead. Her name is Makaylee and what a girl she already is. I have honestly never been one to push her to do things. She has proven to us time and time again that pushing her only makes it to where things will take longer. This sweet girl is for sure just like her momma. The open spoken and sarcastic is already coming through with all her gibbering.
My husband and I had only been dating a little over three month when I got pregnant. But once again all pregnancy test decided to say negative and I even had a trans vaginal ultrasound with this one and she decided that hiding was way better then being seen. So after feeling sick for three months we decided to take a home pregnancy test which came back positive. When it came to the doctors appointment I sure had the poor doctor stumped on how we missed her and why all the test weren't showing anything till now.
After going into early labor with her and finding out I had Gestational diabetes with her they decided to induce me at 39 weeks. That didn't work so they sent me home to wait. Well just a few days later my water broke in the early morning and lone behold the next morning we were holding our princess. and that began the long journey with my sweet redhead. At 2 months old she got a viral infection and was in and out of the doctors office until we moved to Idaho and we ended up in the ER with her at the age of 6 months old. I will never forget the ER doctor telling me that they would have to do a spinal tap to make sure she didn't have meningitis.
The one thing I will have to admit about that night is that was the night that God truly showed us that he was there and was going to prove to us that he would never leave us. I was sitting in a quiet room as Daddy and Makaylee were in with the doctor having the spinal tap done and that is when I decided to pray to the Lord and let him know we needed him and at that moment the hubby was doing the same and telling the Lord that since he gave us Makaylee it was OK if it was his time to take her back. and as I was praying (I was the only one in the room ) I felt a hand on my back almost like telling me I am here and its OK to cry. I will never ever forget the fact that peace came over me and I was OK with whatever was thrown at us.
Lets just say we are so very happy that God has been with us through everything. Because almost one year later we were back in the hospital with one very sick baby and this time it was RSV. That sure was one week I thought I was going to die due to lack of sleep. One thing we most certainly have learned is that Redheads handle pain so differently. and the stubbornness is...... O my no words to explain that one. I am so thankful everyday that God blessed me with my sweet husband and the happy little girl.

A little more about my Angel baby
So I will always remember my sweet son.
I was 19 years old and in what I thought was love and living in Laramie Wyoming as my at that time fiance was going to school at Wyotech. We were only about a week away from moving back home to Oregon when I started to get very sick with what we thought was the flu. So we got him through graduation and we got all packed up and moved back home. My mother kept telling me she was pretty sure I was pregnant and I just kept telling her no I am fine its just the flu.
March 2010: I fianlly decided to go to the doctor and take a pee test to see what was going on. Little did we know that this was the day that would change or life and relationship quickly. The nurse and doctor informed us that I was for sure pregnant and we got to see our sweet baby for the first time that day. As the months went on things sounded good
June 25, 2010: This was the day that changes everything and yet one I will never ever forget. It was just another normal check for me and baby or that is what we thought. The doctor decided that it was time to check the heartbeat and he couldnt find it. So into the ultrasound room we went only to find out that our sweet son had no heart beat. We were only a few days away from finding out what we were having. I had to wait just a few hours to find out that I was to be at the hospital the next morning to be induced to deliver my son.
I gave birth to my sweet Warren on June 27, 2010.
I am so greatful for the fact that I had so many great family memebers that were there to support us and I can honestly and strongly say at that moment I realized that I need to start growing up. I later went on that year and got CNA license. I am no longer with my sons father but this is the path that God put me on for a reason. I am now a stay at home momma to a sweet redheaded princess. please feel free to ask questions about me or my family. I honestly love telling people about my son and how I feel about the whole thing.
and for those of you that have lost a baby may God Bless you with a sweet Rainbow baby like he did me.
" If God Brings You To It, He Will Bring You Through It." not sure exactly where this quote came from but I know it is one that got me through alot of things after my son gained his angel wings.

It's Me
I never ever thought I would have the guts to start blogging. But after being told I could do it , Here I go. Man, is it odd to say I never once thought I would have a redheaded kid. I know for a fact that I would not change it for anything in the world. However some days I find myself wondering if the attitude and stubbornness is coming from me or my husband, Or if its the redhead coming out. I do know that after reading an article on facebook the other day on red heads that it truely explains so much about my daughter.
I love to ponder late at night and imagine what life would be like if both my children were here. I know for a fact that My sweet little boy would love his sister so much. I know there are still days that I miss him so much it is crazy. But then I look at his sweet sister and know that he is always with me through her. and One day I will be able to hold him and he will know me when we meet in Heaven.
I also wanna say thank you to those that will be reading this. As it being my first post I am sure it is a little rambling. I am hoping to get better as I post more =)
May God Bless you !!
