Days go by...

I just realized it has been two weeks since my last post.. I've been busy and stressed and have just been enjoying reading your blogs.
Since I have last posted I have watched AL beat LSU and MS State.. Roll Tide! I actually went to the AL vs LSU game! The game was awesome, seats were good.. we had a great time.
We had Riley's birthday party at Chuck E Cheese... I just thought it would be less stressful to have it there.. man was it crowded. AAHHH! Thanks to all that came and I hope you all had as much fun as Riley did.. He got lots of great things and enjoyed it there. That was his first time there. We will have to take him back since we didn't use all his tokens.
Me and Zach went to the doctor to find out that he has some abnormal chromosomes which could cause me to miscarry or have a child with a chromosomal disorder. That is a 50/50 chance.. but with our other issues the chances of us getting pregnant on our own are slim. They suggested we do invitro or have a sperm donor. At this time, we are not able to do either one.. so we will not be going back to the doctor. So just pray that we will conceive a healthy baby on our own.
Zach is still jobless and Riley now only goes to school from 8-12 each day. He seems to be enjoying not having to take a nap.. that's what he told me. Last weekend me and two others tackled my kitchen wallpaper.. after 8 hours of hard work we got it all down. I am so glad that fruit wallpaper is gone. My husband has spent the past few days getting it painted and pretty for me.. I started the project but he has been nice enough to finish it for me.
Tomorrow night is GNO at my house for the first time. I am excited for everyone to come over.. we will miss the ones who can not make it this time. It is going to be very slim.
I would like to say congrats to Amy and Mark on having their baby yesterday. I know they are super excited and are blessed with with a beautiful baby girl!
My niece is in her 8th grade pageant Saturday night so we will keep our fingers crossed that she will do great.. I can't wait to go see her.
Have a great weekend everyone and I will see most of you this weekend sometime!

P.S. Sorry no pics! Check out my Facebook for the latest pics.

ROLL TIDE!

Short and Sweet

Thought I would post some pics from Halloween and Riley's Birthday. Both were good..

This is one of Riley's birthday gifts..



Zach carved the pumpkin to match Riley as batman and added his name to it!


My very own Batman and his Bat Mobile


Riley and Aubrey.. (Bambi's daughter)


Logan, Riley and Aubrey.. they all go to school together



My baby turned 4! Where has the time gone to???

Zach did this for him and when he got home he was so excited!!


He loved his gifts.



He was so excited about showing his Transformers gun to our neighbor Hannah that he fell running full speed in our driveway.. OUCH!




Me and LeAnn went to see Morgan and Baby Brooks today. He is so precious and Morgan looked great. I am so happy for them and I know they are so proud.

Lastly, I would like to ask you all to pray for us. Zach got laid off from his job of 6 years on Riley's birthday so we are now on a job hunt. Also, he got a letter from the B'ham Police Department to take their physical test on November 21st. He will be spending the next two weeks trying to get in shape for that. He has always wanted to be a cop so I hope the God has sent this at the right time.. I ask that you pray for him to do well.. I will let yall know the results of the job hunt and police thing.

Have a great weekend and Roll Tide. I am going to the game with my boss and co-worker Kala.. Woo Hoo! Can't wait.

Weekend Recap

Here are a few pics from the Miley Cyrus concert (well before and there):


Riley and Karley..



Me and my Sissy




Yeah we were one of the parents that paid $10 for a light up necklace.




Before the show

I got a little let down about the whole concert. Riley was not near as excited to see Miley as I thought. I think now that maybe he was too young. He sat there and just watched and clapped his hands ever now and then. I told him that the guy was Miley's brother and he said.. is that Oliver? HA! He really likes Hannah Montana. I was thinking it would be more on that line but I was way off! We all still had a good time!

I must say ROLL TIDE after that nerve wracker. We had Zach's dad and some friends over for the game. Needless to say, I saw a beer flying as we blocked Tennessee's last kick.. courtesy of my husband! Not to mention, beer splattered all over our TV. I could not believe as protective as he is of everything that he did that.. I guess the beer got to his head!!

After the game we played some Guitar Hero.. which has not been played in months.. I am thinking that whole Wii thing was a waste of money but since it was my Christmas gift.. I won't go there. Here is Riley playing his own Guitar Hero.




Sunday I slept in from my late night Saturday and then worked for five hours.. Yeah I am a dedicated employee!!!

I go to the doctor Thursday so I will let yall know how that goes. Have a wonderful week everyone.. and good luck at the doctor as well Morgan!

We've been waiting for this day for awhile

That's right.. it's finally here....
No I'm not pregnant!
It's the Miley Cyrus concert.. Riley has been asking me all week about going to the concert. I doubt he even knows what a concert is but he does love him some Miley Cyrus. Today I am leaving work early so that we can get there in time. Since it is a paperless ticket concert, it probably will take awhile to get in. I went shopping Wednesday night and found Riley a cute shirt for the concert.


I also got me one from Rue 21. We are going with my sister and niece Karley. Since we could only get 4 tickets my niece Lindsey is going with her friend.
On a different note.. I also found Riley a cute birthday shirt on Etsy. com. He is getting too old for all the monogrammed stuff so I thought this one would work great.


I'm sure he will like it. He loves clothes and shoes just like his daddy and mom.

Last Sunday we went to the Pumpkin Patch in Hayden with my friend Dana and her family. We got there about 2 and it was extremely crowded. It has never been that crowded when I was there and the pumpkins were far from great this year.. there were tons of rotten ones and no really big ones. Needless to say, I was not impressed. Riley did enjoy riding the pony and playing on the inflatables. Oh I must tell this part, Riley climbed up the stairs to ride down the big slide one and when he got to the top he started crying so I made the girl behind him push him down it.. he was crying the whole time.. I'm not sure why he gets so scared at stuff these days.. After that him and Zach did it together and he loved it! All the pics from the Pumpkin Patch are on my Facebook. We took tons!
On the pregnancy issue, we will meet with Dr. Long Thursday to see what he wants us to do next. I will let yall know how that goes!
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and I hope your team pulls off a victory. ROLL TIDE ROLL!

These boots...

This is my niece Lindsey and her friend Rayme at their Homecoming game.


At her best



Me and Zach before we went to the Alan Jackson concert. Which was awesome by the way!

Riley thought he needed to wear his daddy's boots and I thought it was too cute! He's a mess!
I will see my GNO girls tonight! Pumpkin Patch on Sunday.. can't wait!
Have a wonderful weekend and of course ROLL TIDE!

Everything comes out fine

Some of you know that Monday I had my HSG procedure. I was sooo nervous about it. Mostly because a man doctor was doing it and not my normal lady OBGYN. Anyways, it was the fertility doctor, Dr. Long. He walked me through the procedure and all I felt was a few cramps.. and the end result was... my tubes are clear.. So that was a good way to start my week. And the doctor was really nice too! I got back Friday for some more bloodwork to see if my Clomid worked. We'll keep our fingers crossed that this will be the month!!

On another note, Zach's job is cutting their hours starting next week. So 1/3 of his paycheck will be missing. They can only work two days instead of three. Gotta love my life right now. I think Zach will soon be finding himself working on the weekends.

My little man turns 4 on November 2nd. Man how time flies. Makes me sad thinking back! I'm still try to figure out where to have his birthday party. It is hard when you have a November birthday because you never know how cold it will be outside. He did tell me he wanted a Toy Story party so at least I have somewhere to start. I was thinking about Trussville Park but who knows.

I am getting ready for a busy weekend. Saturday I am working and then we have a wedding to go to at 2. We are going to the Alan Jackson concert at Verizon that night. Hopefully the weather will cooperate. Sunday we are celebrating my grandmother and niece's birthdays at my brother's house. It is even better because my Aunt Mary is home from Las Vegas visiting this week. So good to see her. It's been two years.

Lastly, here's a pic of my Big Boy cheering at Lindsey's game! Yean Zach has soo not seen this.



Have a great weekend my friends!

Good news...

Zach got his heart monitor results back today and they did not see anything wrong. So that is good. We still do not know what caused his heart to race and him almost black out but at least we know he has no major heart problems, which is very good news. My dad had heart problems and I know how scary that is.

I went to see Shannon and baby Henley last night. She is precious. I got to hold her for a little while. She was asleep the whole time. Shannon looked great as always. Harper was soo cute in her big sister outfit too. I'm glad everything is going well for them!

Tonight I am going to watch my niece Lindsey cheer for Rudd. I have not been to one of her games yet this year so I am pretty excited. She is the captain of their squad so I will get to she her at work! She also made Homecoming court for the 8th grade so in a few weeks I will get to watch her walk out on the field at halftime hopefully winning the crown!

My niece Lindsey, my sister, and my niece Karley

On another note, I go to the doctor tomorrow for an ultrasound and blood work. No I am not pregnant yet. They just have to check my ovaries and such and see if I can start my Clomid again. Hopefully everything will be fine this month and we can try again!


Tomorrow night is GNO at Ashley's. Can't wait to see all of you there. Have a great rest of your day!
