Baby Caiden is SEVEN MONTHS OLD!!! So hard to believe. He pulls up on any and every thing in the whole house, has one little tiny tooth peeking out on his lower gums and crawls everywhere I happen to be at the time.

Confession....
I must confess. I have issues. Serious, serious issues. Food issues. I love food. If you get between me and my meal, you'd better look out cause you're fixin to get smacked. I wasn't always this way. I think I began my food obsession in college, but that's another story for another day.
I don't understand those people that look at the clock and say, "Oh gee. I forgot to eat." Me, I'm always checking the clock, thinking, "Two more hours to dinner! I think I'll eat a cookie." That being said, on Friday I was on my way home from Paris and stopped off at a fast food establishment that will remain anonymous to protect the innocent. Now, having two kids in the car, I decided to go through the drive thru. It was already 2 and I hadn't eaten since that morning (that's a lie. I'd had a protein bar at 11, so I wasn't starving) and was becoming ravenous. I pull up to the speaker and wait. And wait.
"We'll be with you in a minute."
Ok. No biggee. Hmmm. Do I want the grilled chicken salad or the number 5. I think I want the number 5 so I can get fries, but I really need to be good and just get the salad. What to do what to do.
Five minutes pass of me debating between the salad and the trans fat laden french fry meal.
"We'll be with you in a minute."
"Ummm. Ok?"
Another five minutes pass and I finally place my order. I get the salad. I pull up, pay the nice woman in the drive thru and she tells me to pull ahead, that someone would bring my order right out. So, I pull up. I check my email, play solitaire, listen to Nemo, twiddle my thumbs, and wait. And wait. TWENTY FIVE MINUTES PASS BY!!!! Umm, helllooooo? This is FAST food?
I drive around and pull up to the drive thru window. I'm ticked. I'm hungry. And I want my money back. The lady in the drive thru window looked at me and said, "Hold on a minute, let me get you some crackers."
"No, actually I will NOT hold on a minute. I want my money back. I don't want the salad."
So after some more finger tapping and eye rolling, she gets my money back and I ask to speak to the manager. "He's the one that was handing this order." "And?"
The manager comes to the window. He's all of nineteen years old. He blows me off and sends me on my way.
Oh, no you didn't! I call the headquarters for this establishment and tattle. Yes, I did! I told them exactly what happened! I pulled into this joint at 2:10 and left saladless at 2:50. I was pissed. Like I said, you don't come between me and my food. I might bite. Hard.
By the way, I did stop later and got a grilled chicken salad. And a large order of fries. I burn lots of calories when I yell.

Happy Birthday to MEEEEE!!!!!
Yup. I used to be cute. Many, many years ago!!! I think Corgan looks a bit like me, dontcha think? Anyway, yesterday was my 27th birthday. So here are 27 random things about me!
1. I'm the youngest of 5, and yes. I was spoiled.
2. As spoiled as you can be when you are dirt poor, but whatever.
3. My heroes are my parents.
4. My dad went to medical school with five kids.
5. My mom supported him and worked from home so she could be there for all of us.
6. I've experienced both a c-section and natural childbirth. Both are miracles. And both hurt like the devil.
7. I've never excelled at anything, but have done a lot of things.
8. You never ever use alegbra. Unless you're an algebra teacher. And then you're just plain nuts.
9. Cadavers really do stink, but are fascinating.
10. My first kiss was when I was thirteen years old. Which was way too young. You were right mom!!!!
11. I love the Smashing Pumpkins. Obviously.
12. I have no clue on how to decorate. I'm a complete idiot. HELP DANIELLE!!!!!!!!!!!
13. I hate laundry. No matter how much you do, there's always more to be done. Sheesh.
14. I really love going to church. I always come away feeling better.
15. I'm not going to my ten year reunion. Is that bad?
16. There is no freaking way I will ever sky dive, bungee jump, or do any form of extreme sports.
17. I HATE as in H-A-T-E roller coasters.
18. My dream car is a minivan. So, so sad.
19. I love my husband. He gets on my nerves, but I really do love him.
20. I sing in the car.
21. I put my makeup on while driving. Very very bad, I know.
22. I'm always nice to drive thru workers. That job has to totally suck.
23. My very very first job was working in concessions at a movie theater. To this day I will NOT eat movie popcorn. I have a story about mice that I would probably get sued if I told.
24. I had to buy man's whitey tighty underwear for my boss's husband when he had a huge boil on his butt. ;)
25. I love to take naps with both of my boys. Corgan on one side, Caiden on the other.
26. I love my family. Every single one of them. They rock.
27. I say bad words. I know, I shouldn't, but sometimes no other word will do... It's something I'm working on!
So there you go. A couple of confessions and a few random thoughts. Stay tuned. A confession of epic proportions is to come soon!!! Don't miss it! ;)

What the heck?!
Ok. Caiden will be seven months old on Sunday and he is already crawling, pulling up, climbing, and sitting at the Little Tykes table with Corgan. I'm kinda freaked out!!!! I think I'm in for it with this one! He is so totally different from Corgan that I'm starting to think Nature over Nurture here.

So sweet....
The other day I took Caiden to the pediatrician for his six month check up. Here are his stats:
Head 45th percentile
Length 50th percentile
Weight 10th percentile
Ok. This weight thing is really bugging me. I mean, babies are supposed to be little chunky buckets of dimples and rolls. But my little guy is, well, kinda skinny. I think I'm shooting out skim. Poor guy!!!
When Caiden had his shots, Corgan stood by looking at Caiden with this really concerned look on his face. After he was pricked I scooped Caiden up to comfort him and Corgan came running over, gave Caiden a big hug and said, "It's ok Baby Caiden. Corgan's here." Isn't that sweet?! What a good big brother. I'll have to remember these good moments when they're fighting over toys in a couple of years!

Six Months OLD!!!
Oh my goodness. Where has the time gone!? My baby is SIX MONTHS OLD!!! Here are a few of the things he has accomplished: Sitting independently
- CRAWLING (This blows me away! Corgan didn't crawl until he was 10 months old!)
- Says "Da da" and "zzshshth" Whatever that means.
- Does NOT LIKE FRUIT! Weird child.
- Eats lots of veggies. Loves anything orange and has a lovely orangy glow to his skin.
Just look at those fingers!!! What a mess!

Leap Frog...
Before Corgan was born, Travis, Mom and I went to Baby's R Us to buy all the baby essentials that we just HAD to have before the new arrival. Mom and I had picked out this play gym that had all these excited lights flashing and bells dinging and annoying sounds to stimulate the brain of a newborn. Or cause seizures. Whatever. Anyway, Travis saw this "educational" learning gym that taught things like counting in japanese or german, saying hello in french, and stuff like that, but didn't have a lot of "cool" features. Mom and I both thought, "BORING." But, Travis insisted and since Travis rarely insists on anything, I thought I'd throw him a bone and then laugh at him when the thing collected dust. Alas, I was mistaken. Not "wrong" mind you, just mistaken.
This toy has entertained for the two and a half years that we've had it! Corgan LOOOOVED it when he was a baby and actually kept him entertained during a twelve hour drive from Georgia to Texas. And I learned how to count to five in German, Japanese, French and Spanish. Added bonus! Now it is Caiden's most cherished toy. He will sit in his Bumbo and push the buttons and laugh and squeal while listening to the music. By far the best forty bucks we've EVER spent on these children!

Tent Fun
The other day I walked into my bedroom to see Corgan, Caiden and Daddy camping out in the family "tent". It was so stinking cute, I had to grab the camera to get shots of their little legs sticking out from underneath the sheet.

Funny Kid...
The other evening I was getting Corgan ready for bed and kept pulling up his shorts like Steve Urkle. Corgan thought it was hilarious, walked around like a total dork and said, "I'm Daddy!!!"
Hee hee!!!
5 Months Old!!!
My little Buddy is FIVE MONTHS OLD!!! (Well, actually he's almost six months old, but these pictures were taken on his five month birthday so leave me alone.)
Caiden is loving to roll all over the floor, is getting to where he can push himself backwards, which really frustrates him because he's trying to reach the toys in FRONT of him. HE is a super sweet baby with a very deep voice. He coos and cuddles, playing with your hair on the back of your neck. He gets so excited when Corgan comes around, already worshipping his big brother!

Buddy Time....
Corgan wanted to read Caiden a nice story the other day...
"Ok Caiden. This story is about a depressed catapillar with low self-esteem named Percival. He felt very inadequate about his looks."
"So one day, Percival goes into a deep anesthesia induced slumber, and comes out lookin fierce, with very enhanced features..."
"Moral of the story is...
If at first you don't esteem,
Try, try to change.
Or something like that.
Maybe you can even do something about your ears."

You asked...
On my 17th birthday I was a cheerleader in high school and my birthday fell on a Friday. Fridays are a BIG deal in a Texas town during football season, so during lunch we had a pep rally. I was head cheerleader that week (we rotated so EVERYONE could feel special...) and had just said, "Ready?" for the last cheer. They didn't say, "OK!" I was really confused. One of the cheerleaders said, "Not yet!" And proceeded to lead the entire gym in an offkey rendition of Happy Birthday. It was so awesome!
My mom and brother were there for the pep rally and had brought me a balloon boquet with Diet Dr. Pepper and Junior Mints (which were my favorite things at the time). There were seventeen little mini boxes of junior mints with a memory of each year of my life taped to the box. I still have the little notes my mom wrote in a memory box in the attic! It was a lot of fun!
!!!UPDATE!!!
I think my air is finally fixed. YAHOO!!!! We had several days of very uncomfortable living conditions, but have finally maintained 76 degrees in the house for three whole days. It's a miracle. How on EARTH did people survive without AC?????
I will post more pictures of my adorable spawn soon. My camera will not connect to my computer, so I have to go to Walmart and get a picture cd made. Very convenient...

I'm Baaaaack!
Sorry I haven't blogged in a while. Things have been... crazy. This is what I've been up to in the past twenty days...
* Watched the new Harry Potter movie. Pretty good. Harry's kind of turning into a hottie.
* Read the last *sniff* Harry Potter book. Ok. I'll admit it. I read the last two chapters first. I just couldn't stand it!!!! Don't worry. No spoilers here. You'll just have to read all seven hundred and something pages yourself!
* Caiden turned FIVE MONTHS OLD!!!! Holy crap! He is super close to being mobile which completely freaks me out since Corgan was such a slacker and didn't crawl until he was ten months old. Caiden can't wait to catch up to his older brother. He spins around when he's on his belly and is sitting up!
* I've been sick... My throat hurts, my head hurts, I cough all the time and sneeze from my toes. I was complaining to Travis tonight about my ailments and he said, "Try some Chloraseptic." "I already did..." "Well, did you try the Halls epileptic?" "What?! I said sneezing, not SEIZING!" "Oh, I mean Mentholatum." Trust me folks. He really is smart. Just a little confused sometimes.
* I've been teaching a BUNCH. At least two, if not three classes a day. Psycho, I know. What can I say? I'm a bit of a freak.
* Our AC was on the fritz, so I've been sitting in an 87 degree house in the middle of the day. Oh, yeah. I would pack the boys up and we'd sit in the car with the AC on full blast to cool off. It actually felt better outside than in this house. So fun.
I think that about sums it up! I'll post pictures when I can finally download them from my camera. We switched to Windows Vista and our camera's software isn't compatible. Sheesh. So, hold on to your panties! You'll get some awesome pictures soon!!!!

New Word!
Time to censor my language! Corgan has a new favorite word! Anytime he falls down, bumps into something, or can't get something to work, he says, "Crap!" Very very clearly. So it looks like I'm going to have to stop saying "naughty words." Crap.

I'll blog more when I'm more chipper.
