Im DONE with doctors!

I've had it!! No more! For 72 looooong hours I had to where this holter monitor. I was pissed!! I thought Im going to kill Justin for making me go to the doctor and do all this! First I got and Ecco-cardiogram done on my heart and the tech told me I had nothing to worry about, that it just sounded like a small murmur and that everything was going to be okay, millions of people have them. So then I had to go and get all these wires put on me. I thought why do I have to even do this if the EKG came out just find. The lady tells me to lift my shirt and she proceeds to put a thousand of those cirle things all over me and theres all these wires hanging down and a monitor at the end. She had okay you cant take it off for 72 hours, you cant take a shower for 72 hours and if you dont bring it back by the due date then it will cost you 2000.00. Great, freakin great! I cant take a shower for 3 days, Im killing someone when I get home! After 70 hours of itching a scratching I said forget this Im taking it off! When I took the circles and tape off there where huge blisters there and have been itching me ever since. Errrrr Never again, I said, I would rather die then go through all these tests again.

Chicken Express

So for Easter I just had to do it. I bought chickens!! Baby chics!

 I was at work and it was the day before Easter, my co-workers and I were standing at the cemetery waiting for this family to leave so we could finish up and go home. We all got to talking and one of the guys mentioned that Tractor Supply had baby chics for Easter for sale. He said they were only 2 bucks, I was like WHAT! I'm gonna get a bunch, you know how many baby chics I could buy. Then I thought Justin is going to kill me. But the guys at work conned me into it.(I think they just wanted to see Justin's reaction). So after work I went to Tractor Supply and asked about the chics and the man said that the minimum was 6 and I say no way, there is no way Justin will ever let me have 6. So I tell the man I only wanted 2. The man gave in and let me have my 2 baby chics. I really wanted a Rhode Island Red but they were all out. My beloved Sophie Jo (R.I.P) was a Rhode Island Red. I told the man I wanted one that lays white eggs and one that lays brown eggs. He says okay get one Pullet (lays white) and a Straight Run (lays brown). 

When I got home I told Justin Happy Easter!!!! 

As I'm holding the box behind my back, I say, "I got something for you!" Then I whip them out and he shakes his head and says OMG I can not keep up with all your projects, and I give him a very sad face and he said "okay fine we will keep them". I named the Straight Run, Henrieta and the Pullet is named Petra. 

Yay! Happy Easter!!

How does your Garden Grow?

So the last two days Justin and I were both off from work and we were determined to get our garden planted. Tuesday we finished our above box garden and planted, squash, tomato, okra, green and red bell peppers, hot peppers and zucchini squash. And yesterday I worked on the ground garden which took me 6 hours but I got the job done. I planted carrots, peas, onion chives, lettuce, watermelon and cantaloupe. We also have a blueberry bush and we planted 4 pots of flowers. 

Jaina hung out in her swing chair pulling weeds as she was trying to eat them. lol

Texas Bluebonnets

I Have been begging Justin that we needed to get Jaina's Pictures made in the Bluebonnets so we drove back behind our house and found a little patch on the side of the road and the pictures came out perfect!!!

Do I really have a Heart Murmur???.......

So the other night me and the hus were laying in bed talking and I asked him if it was normal to have two heart beats in one setting. and of course he says no and then starts to flip out. So we listen to my heartbeat through the stethoscope at home and of course says we have to make an appointment right away. I told him that this has been going on for a long time, way before I had the baby and before we got married so its probably nothing. I told him that basically it feels like two chambers of my heart fire off at the same time and then theres and pause afterwards where I have to take a deep breathe. So yesterday we go to the doc and they do an EKG on me which is fine and then she listens to my heart and then proceeds to tell me that she thinks I might have a heart murmur but isnt for sure. I then have to give some blood to see if everything else is ok. and then next week I have to go back to the hospital and get an ecco-cardiogram done on my heart and then I have to wear a heart monitor for 72 hours. I keep telling Justin that this is a waste of my time because its not like they can rip my heart out and give me another one, plus they probably wont even find anything wrong. But the doctor just wants to make sure that none of this is related to the labor I had.

The Weight game

Okay, so I have offically started weight watchers last week......and it sucks!!! and the meeting was really stupid. But Im going to give it a try and really stick with it. I have always been a pretty skinny girl until I got pregnant and hit 208 at the end of the pregnancy and when I got home from the hospital I thought I am never going to loose this weight. I didnt actually relize how much weight I had gained in those 9 months. Ouch!!! 30 pounds has come off so far really easy. I would consider myself a pretty lucky lady cause all I do is eat whatever I want and i would consider myself the laziest person I know. So for the last 2 months Ive been stuck, and cant loose anymore weight So me sweet-as-can-be husband suggested I go to weight watchers. So I thought what the Hell Ill give it a try. I absolutely hate to diet and love to eat really really bad stuff. I LOVE to cook and at the moment I am trying to master baking so I dont think this is all going to work. My goal this week is to pretty much starve myself and loose atleast 2 pounds. LOL No seriously We are going on vacation in 2 months and I need to have lost at least 10 pounds by then so wish me luck, cause Ill need it. Speaking of food, Im hungry...

Doctor's order's

This past Wednesday I had to take Jaina for her 4 month check up even though she will be 6 months in two weeks. We had to change appointments because our normal doctor moved to the ER so I told them to just stick me with whatever doctor who can see her. and they couldnt get to her until now. So let me just say I left the doctors office in tears and cried seriously for like an hour. When I get there the doctor comes in and says " So am I your childs doctor or not" and I said I dont know I just told the person on the phone to give me who ever. Then he proceeds to look through my daughters chart as fast as he can and then says okay so she will be getting her 4 months shots today and I say No me and my husband choose not to give our daughter shots until she was at least 6 months of age because giving her 7 shots at 2 months was way toooo much for her tiny body to take so we as parents decided not to. Our first doctor that she saw when she was 2 months said that it was fine not to give her shots until we wanted to. Our daughter does not go to daycare and is at our home 95% of the time. So then he grills me about what a horrible decision that was and we a horrible parents for doing that and he's seen children die from stuff like this. and I say well she will be 6 months in 2 weeks, we were planning to bring her and get her shots then. And he blows up again and tells me if we dont bring her back to get her shots then he would refuse to see her!!!! I was like WHAT!!! I was so pissed!! That is not his choice what-so-ever!! Then he tells me I am feeding her all wrong and then checks her as fast as he can and then tells me thank you. I was sooooo flippin pissed I called Justin and cried, becuase it made me feel like we were bad parents for the choices we made. Justin was so pissed he made a complant on the doctor and had the doctor call and tell me sorry. I should have just got up and walked out when I could. but needless to say we will not be seeing him again. We choice a doctor that is mucher younger and can relate to us and will respect our choices and she will be getting her shots in 2 weeks so everyone can calm down.

We went and got Jaina's Easter Pictures made and she laughed at the lady the whole time.
