Happy Birthday!!!




Remember Conner? My cousins son that was born a couple years ago ...who was a preemie?? That is him above on the right....he is a little ham...love him to pieces! He is holding his new little brother Elijah who was born in July...he loves being a big brother!

Say CHEESE Conner...haha



The picture above and below is my cousin Sandra holding her first born son Conner at the hospital where he stayed in the NICU for awhile...he has come so far!



Is he not precious...and so alert for being such a tiny little thing....that is his grandads fingers...up next to his tiny hand..

Happy 2nd Birthday Conner!!!!!!!
  • Tonight I called my mom and aunt and together we all planned that we will have Christmas at my grandads with the whole family on the 20th...which is a saturday after church.... we are having finger foods....something simple for everyone...so no one is under stress.... Blogger is giving me alot of stress tonight cause for some reason now in the middle of my entry it's not letting me space between sentences or paragraphs if I want to....always something...oh well! 7 yrs ago today the furniture factory in which my mom and I and many others in my family worked at....closed the doors....it was a sad day indeed....I cried like a baby....cause it was the only job I had ever known...I worked there 7 and a half years....and mom worked there 27 years...my grandad retired from there he worked 44yrs...and my grandma worked 10yrs once their 9 children started school..... my stepdad, 3 uncles and 3 cousins worked there as well up until they closed the doors...but in years past all of my 8 uncles and aunts worked there at some point..... I don't like change much and I was scared of the unknown....not knowing how long it would take me to find another job.....scared of learning to do something new and meeting new coworkers and being the new kid on the block...and lowest on the totem pole...just scared of starting over period.... I drew unemployment for 6 months and then went to work at the hospital....during those 6 months money was tight but I sure had a good time....being a housewife...lol.....I seriously never got bored and would love it and hope to someday be one....but as of now I love to spend money too much to survive on one income....and these days it honestly takes two to make it, it seems...anyways I could babble all night....but I really need to get off here and finally eat supper and spend some time with my honey...I've been on the phone all night making plans for Christmas and online trying to catch up which is nearly impossible...lol Until next time.... Nitey Nite!
