My Truths!!

So I've been tagged by my cousin Brittni to admit to 10 of my honest truths...I've decided to play! Here are the rules in case I tag you! A) first list 10 honest things about yourself - and make it interesting, even if you have to dig deep!B) pass the award on to 7 bloggers that you feel embody the spirit of the Honest Scrap.

1) I love being a mom and my kids mean the world. I wish I could be more of a super mom and get everything done in a day that I planned....but I don't and I'm pretty much okay with that. I wish I could have lots of kids but I know that isn't realistic....I know I am blessed with what God has given me.

2) I really want a new house with much more room. It seems like the more kids you have the more toys/clothes/stuff you have. I feel like we walk on eachother here and that our family has just simply out grown our house. The trouble is finding a house, affording a house, and then selling our house!

3) My parents mean a lot to me. They have been there thru everything that myself and my own family has gone thru. They have supported us and helped us when we needed it. I think I would be lost without them. I seriously call my mom at least 3 times a day to talk to her about whatever is on my mind at the time, but I wouldn't change it for the world.

4) I wish I would get more respect from my daycare families. I feel like they think I do this for fun. I hate all the paper work I have to deal with, the calls I have to make, the things I have to keep track of, things I have to buy and pay for, not getting paid by parents, etc. I could go on and on about how tough it is do be a daycare provider. I just wish the parents would know that I like my job and that I am with their child about 40 hours a week....I deserve some respect, even a Thank You!

5) I LOVE SUMMER....I love the hot weather, the sun, the happy people, the fun things to do. I think if I could I would move somewhere warm all year.

6) I wish we didn't have so many bills/debt. I understand it will always be there but I wish it wasn't so much.

7) When I have time to watch tv, I love reality shows. I know they are dumb and pointless but I like seeing how dumb people act. LOL

8) I really wish I could lose some weight. I don't try as hard as I could but I wish it would just fall right off of me. When I have 2 sisters that are thin...it makes me jealous. So after I have the baby that is my next goal. (I haven't gained any weight since I have been prego....that makes me feel good :) )

9) I love being around family...no matter what we do. They always put a smile on my face and make me forget about life for awhile.

10) Even tho life is stressful and we have bills to pay and want new things....I still LOVE MY LIFE. I always tell myself things could be worse. I am blessed to have a wonderful husband, healthy kids, a house to live in, a car to drive, food to eat, etc. Things are never perfect and that's okay....


I don't know very many bloggers, so I'm not going to tag anyone....if you see this feel free to do it yourself!

Baby's First Pictures!!

Here are the ultra sound pictures of baby #3 that we had done right before x-mas. I was about 12.5 weeks along when I got it done. I want to have another one done since David City got 4D ultra sound, but I'm nervous that it will reveal the sex of the baby and I do not want to know. TJ wants to find out the sex because I think he really wants his boy. So I am going to try and convince him that we don't need to find out.....he needs my belly to do an ultra sound so I guess I get to decide. Haha!

New Year's Eve Ugly Sweater/80's Party!!!

Instead of going out on New Year's Eve we all decided to go to Natalie and Cory's to hang out and play Wii!! So to make it alittle more fun we decided to dress up. We picked ugly sweaters with a side of the 80's mixed in....and boy did we come up with some fun costumes. Natalie, Cindy, and me even went to Good Will to find some old fun stuff and came out with some old outfits that were perfet. My parents watched Sophia and Cash so we could have some fun!! We all stayed up to watch the ball drop then shortly after we went home and crashed!!

Christmas, Christmas, and More Christmas!!

The girls visiting Santa! Breanna loved Santa this year...she followed him around the store like a lost puppy...it was cute! Sophia didn't mind Santa, unlike Breanna at that age. She sat on his lap but once she saw me she whined alittle bit but then she was fine!!


Breanna's Preschool Xmas Program!! She wasn't feeling the best but she still did a good job. I'm glad she got to go and she looked so cute!


Yep that's a yawn....lol




Breanna waiting to open all her presents on x-mas eve on the Slonecker side.


Sophia just wanted to crawl all over the presents. She didn't really get into opening them or even looking at them, I think there was too much going on for her.









I think Breanna was over excited here!



Sophia snooping around the living room at all the presents.

TJ's mom opening the surprise present. She looks confused!


Oh no!! She's in shock!!

I guess Sophia got bored and decided to crawl under the x-mas tree to see if there were any presents left.

Bath time and boy was Sophia mad.....but I don't know why, she loves the bath!

Oh I think she just wanted to stand up!
