Confession
I am SO addicted to Twilight. Seriously, its the best book series ever. I mean, who doesn't dream of a love life like Edward and Bella's? And I absolutely adore Jacob Black. I could go on and on. But I'll stop here. I'm obsessed. That's all I wanted to say. Whew, I got that off my chest!

Good News
Well, it looks as though my mother doesn't have heart problems after all. Good news! However, now we've just got to buckle down and get her to stop smoking because it seems that all her problems are stemming from her lungs. Long story short, my mother has emphazema and COPD and, until just recently, has smoked 3 packs of cigs a day since she was about 15 or so. Very bad. Yes. Very, very bad. So after all these years its finally catching up to her. She's having complications with things so the docs are starting to narrow down everything starting with the worse case scenario. So, that said, its good news that even though she's having chest pain, its not her heart.
Good news.
She's doing great cutting back on the cigs. I'm so thankful for that and I hope and pray this works and she'll quit for good before its too late. I've got a whole other story I could share on this but I'll save it for later. Just, please if you're reading, keep my mother and my family in your prayers. Thanks.

So there was this girl who had a BFF since...like...preschool it seems. No really, since Jr. High School. They were seriously unseperatable (I so butchered that spelling) throughout there entire adolescence. Even into adulthood. Sisters. They practically lived together. Then one day, one of the girls gets married and has children and *** poof *** her best friend is gone...
Sadly, these types of things seem to be more common that I once thought possible.
That was the story of me and my best friend. We kinda went our seperate ways. I had an obligation and responsiblity to be a good mother and a good wife. I had settled down. She was still single and had her own life. Although my priorities had changed quiet a bit from childhood to now, I never wanted to stop being a good friend. But I wasn't a good friend at all. I stopped calling her, she stopped calling me. When I did talk to her, I felt uncomfortable at times. Almost like I was talking to a stranger. I hated that. Really. I was broken, literally in tears over this realization that my friend and I just grew apart in so many ways. I don't place blame on either of us though. I can't. We were just at different stages of life and I knew someday, we'd catch back up.
I got a phone call from Tresa in December. She was so excited to tell me she was engaged and getting married. I cannot even begin to tell you the releif, excitement, joy, ect. I felt hearing her happy voice on the other end of the phone. So happy for her. So happy to hear from her. So happy to hear her good news.
So, Tresa is marrying Taylor in July. I'm honored and blessed beyond anything you can imagine that I will be standing at Tresa's side as a bridesmaid in her wedding. And more than that, she's asked for my children to be part of the wedding as well. How great is that! Morgan and Jenna will be flower girls for my best freind's wedding. I've been waiting for this day for a while.
Good news.
I have my bff back.
That's really good news.

Morgan, that little stinker. I love that girl. She's so not a baby anymore, it seems. She's started crawling a few weeks ago and now she's pulling up to furniture. Soon (a little too soon for Momma) she'll be walking and playing chase with her sister. She's cut 5 teeth already and man do they hurt. We've got a biter, for sure. She's got quiet the personality, I tell ya. She's a ham. Always so happy.
We'll take Morgan to her 6 month checkup on the 5th of February. Yeah, she's almost 8 months getting 6 month vaccines becasue poor baby endured a horrible ear infection that set us back some on our schedule. Good news, the ear infection is over and she's feeling great now. Well, until Thursday anyways, when she gets the shots. She does horrible with them. Its hard to see such a happy baby that never even cries the tiniest bit, wale in pain and discomfort. I'm not looking forward to that part. I am anxious to see her weight though. She's big. But slowing down some I think. At about 6 months when she went in for the ear infection she weighed 19 pounds.
Good news. Jenna gets to play t-ball this spring! We're all so excited about this. I'll sign her up to play at East End. She's looking forward to it.
My little miss priss gets to be in a couple of weddings this year. The one I mentioned earlier and my cousin Dara's. She's a little flower girl. I'm thrilled that she was chosen to be the flower girl in both weddings. She's excited about wearing a "princess" dress and I'm just as excited. I can't wait!
Good news. Jenna may get to go to preschool this year at East End. I sure hope so. She's so ready to go to school. I honestly don't think she actually needs preschooling, she's a smart kid, but I think the socialization part of it would benefit her. We register her in a few weeks.
Chris and I are doing awesome going to the gym every day. We're trying hard to drop a few pounds and tone up so we look smokin hott this summer, lol. So far, so good.
That's all I have for now. Until next time...
