Welcome Baby M!!!!


On sunday morning, March 13, 2011, I got a text message from my sister asking if I was awake. Two things popped into my head 1. She had/is having her baby. 2. She is really sick and needs the hospital (she had been sick and I thought she had pneumonia). So, I said "yes" and then next thing I knew my phone was ringing. "I'm at the hospital," she said. Her water had broken in the night but she was only dilated to like a 2. So I knew she had some time. Later on she texted me that she was at a 6 and I continued to putz around, not in a hurry to get to the hospital since I thought it would be awhile (actually I didn't putz around, I went to her house to feed and help with their puppy and I stayed and played a lot with him because I knew he wouldn't be getting much attention while his parents were at the hospital.)

Finally... I realized I better start heading over to the hospital.

Long story short, she was born at about 3:00 in the afternoon and she weighed 6# 10 oz. And she is the cutest baby ever!!!!! Tons of hair and a sweet little calm face. When she gets hungry, she does the cutest thing with her tongue and lips.

It was a beautiful sunny day when she decided to be born and she made the day even more beautiful!!!! I love her.

Warning: Political Talk on my Personal Blog


I have never been interested in politics, economics or finance until recently. I guess I finally realized that the people with the money kinda have the power to save (or break) the world. At least it seems that the people with the money seem to be better at influencing people. Anyway, I want the world and it's people, God's children, to be able to enjoy the freedom to worship and live how we please. With our rights infriged upon as little as possible. This is consistent with God's plan. Those who try and bring about laws and ideaologies that are inconsistent with what is required for God's plan to work are the people who we need to keep out of office and positions of power(yes, I am talking about communism.)

Anyhow, I stumbled on this today and found it a very interesting read.

Enjoy and pray that these individuals will allow freedom and liberty to continue.

Weight loss success story.

I stumbled upon this today and it just made a huge impression on me, I don't know why. I guess part of it is the way that the author describes the old her and then her transformation. There is more to life that how someone looks but when someone completely changes their life for the better, it is great. Think of how much healthier she is now that she lost the weight.

JANUARY!!!!

I have a love/hate relationship with January. I hate the dreary middle of winter-ness of it, but I love the fact that it is the start of a new year and time to clean up my life.

This year I plan to get healthier, which includes exercising and losing 20 pounds.

Another goal of mine is to become more educated about our country and get more involved in politics. I want to be able to help this country get to the way the Founders created it. There is far too much wastefulness and far too much campaigning, not enough focus on individual's rights and God's law.

Another reason I like January is for MLK day, which always falls around my birthday. So, I usually get a holiday for doing whatever I want. Happy Birthday me!!!!
