What on my mind...

My Fiance and I are going on a date tonight, Just Us! We will finally get to spend some quality time with each other. But the thing is.. its a suprise to me where we are going and what we are going to do so its kind of been on my mind today what we are going to do.

I love little Kids!!

When I was younger I use to babysit for my next door neighbors

and my parents while they went to work. I babysat about 5 kids in all.

They were around the ages of 7 months to 5 years old. I use to say that

I wanted 12 kids when I grew up but now since I have had one I think

I'll stick to one or two. I am a proud parent and wouldnt change anything.

Accomplishing Goals

I am getting very far on accomplishing my goals.

• I am staying home more which lets me spend more time with family.
• I am starting to help out around the house alot by taking some of my mothers responsibilities like cooking and cleaning and doing them myself.
• I am making straight A's.. if I might add very high A's. :)

Switching Places...

If I could switch places with anyone in the world I would switch with someone famous.. Im not sure who.. I just want to see what its really like being famous.

My Weekend...

My weekend once again wasnt so great. My Malli has a virus.

I missed school Friday because she was throwing up everywhere,

she was running a high fever, and she had alot of mucus. Me and Griff

went to the ER 2 times. The first time we went was Saturday night and then

Sunday morning. Me and griff didnt get ANY sleep at all friday, Saturday, or Sunday.

Malli looked pittyfull and I felt so bad for her. Usually when she feels bad

she will still smile, laugh, and play but when Malli got sick this weekend I

knew something was very wrong because she didnt act like her happy self.

Favorite things to do.

Sleep ( I never get enough)

Having family trips

Shopping

Eating (I absolutely love eating. I eat every 3 hours)

Spending time with my little girl

Spend time with my fiance Griff

This Weekend

This weekend was a pretty good/bad weekend. I went to reflextions day spa and stayed there for over 3 hours getting a manicure, pedicure, and facial. Then spent time with griff and malli, which is always fun. Watching Malli climb on the furniture, then falling down and crying. The bad... im not going to even start to explain. I'll just say Im really glad about the outcome.

Valentine Plans

My valentine plans were to suprise griff when he got home and have a candle lit dinner by the pond. Well, griff's parents wont be there this weekend and his mother told him what I was planning to do and that I couldnt do it because they didnt want us cooking(they have a gas stove). I was very anger this morning because I had spent 2 weeks planning it and it was very hard to not tell him what I was doing, then his mother spoils the suprise. Well he called me this morning and now we are going to go to his grandpa's house and cook and have a dinner by the pon over there. So I am better now.

Favorite Website

My favorite wedsite this week has been the Martha Stewart website. I have been going there alot to see how I can decorate for Valentines Day and also she has alot of good recipes I want to try.

Parting Hair

I part my hair on both the right and left side.

It all depends on how I feel that day. I guess it

can be true that if a women parts their hair on the

left they are considered reliable and intelligent or that if you part your hair on the right you are viewed as gentle and feminine. I am all of those things, I guess I can say..depending

on the mood.

Open House

Monday is Open House. I usually dont go to Open House but this year I think I am going to. I need to get I Parent because we take a quiz over channel one everyday in 1st block and sometimes she counts them and sometimes she doesnt. So I really dont know what my grade is in there and I would like to. I think I am doing good in my classes.

Smoking in the bathrooms

I really hate people smoking in the bathrooms. It really stinks. There is this girl that smokes in the concorse one almost everyday when we go to lunch. Locking the doors to the bathroom DOES NOT help. What is the point of having a bathroom if you dont use it and if we have to go all the way to the concourse, it makes us late for class. The administrators might think that if a teacher stands in the bathrooms in the mornings, at lunch, and in the afternoon it would help but I would feel that it would be an invasion of privacy. I really dont know a solution.

My sis had a baby

Monday my sister went into labor. She had a baby girl named Emily Brielle Batten. She was 7.5 lbs and was born at 6:45pm. I got a chance to hold her yesterday morning for the first time and it took me back to when my little girl was born. Malli was 6 lbs 12 ounces. But when I held Emily it didnt seem like Malli could weigh less. Emily was practically weightless. It was kind of a shocker of how fast your kid grows up. Well a new addition to the family is good, even though I think we will never have a boy. (My mom & dad had 3 girls, I had a girl, and my sister had a girl).

Michael Phelps smoking from a bong

I think that every act, singer, & sports man does something wrong that the newspapers pick up and tries to make them look bad. Michael shouldnt have been smoking in the first place and I do think its wrong but there are people all around the world that smoke but the tabloids dont care because they arent famous.

American Idol

I dont watch American Idol usually because I dont really have time but I seek a few looks every once in a while when I can.
