Sunday Confessions

I confess that I don't want to go back home to Utah. I love it here in Arizona.

I confess that my friend Lauren and I hung out at the pool all day and had some cocktails. I wore sunscreen, but I still got burned.

I confess that I could not live without the internet.

I confess that I am more attracted to guys that have kids and single of course. :)

I confess I can eat sugar cookies for breakfast.

I confess that I shave my arms. I hate hair on my arms.

I confess that I hate talking on the phone, I would rather text. There are very few people I will talk to on the phone, you know who you are. :)

Happy B-day Mom!

We are finally here in sunny Arizona and loving it! We almost didn't make it and from the flying experience I am not sure if we will go back home to Utah! The whole flight was a nightmare! I have flown a few times by myself with both kids and they have done great. Not this time! They were both so tired and Kaylie still had a little bit of a cold. Going through security was a nightmare because Jaden wanted to push the stroller through the line and he couldn't. I had to put the stroller up on the security belt thing. He freaked out! He threw a full on temper tantrum and I had to drag him through security. I put him in the stroller and he cried the whole way to our gate. Jaden was so excited to get on the airplane and look out the window. After a few minutes of taking off they got really squirmy and whiney. Jaden hated the fact that he had to stay buckled into his chair and started throwing a fit. Jaden cried his really loud cry off and on the whole flight. Kaylie cried also. I really thought I was going to die, it was so stressful. Jaden fell asleep the final 20 minutes. I guess that is better than nothing! I am not looking forward to the flight home! Pray for me that next time will be better!

So last night after a long day of stress and flying and no naps, I decided to lay down at 7:50 pm. I was thinking I was just going to take a nap, but I ended up sleeping until 6 am this morning! I can't remember ever going to bed that early! I woke up this morning to quite a few text messages and missed calls. I guess it was much needed beauty sleep!

Today is my mom's birthday, Happy Birthday mom! I love you lots! We had a good, relaxing day. I was able to go to lunch and Target all by myself today while my mom watched the kids. Then we all went out to dinner at California Pizza Kitchen, mmmm-mmm! It was yummy! Then my mom and I did what we do best, shopped! :)

I haven't uploaded any pictures yet, but I will soon!

Sweet dreams, from Arizona!!!

Whatever Wednesday

I missed the Taylor Swift concert last night. My sister had a ticket for me and it was all planned out, but stupid AJ failed to send me any money this month so I couldn't go. Whatever!

I hate when people make plans with me, but don't give me specifics of what time and where. They just expect me to wait around for last minute decisions. I do have kids ya know! Whatever!

Kaylie has had a high fever the past couple of days. She is a miserable little girl. I hope she gets all better by tomorrow so we can fly to Arizona. Whatever!

I'm moving into a bigger place next month and today I am going to look at the place. One thing, it doesn't have a dishwasher. The Housing Authority doesn't allow dishwashers in the units that they rent out. Seriously?? Whatever!

The Cavs lost last night, again. Now the series is 3-1...they got their work cut out for them. I really want it to be a Lebron and Kobe showdown in the finals! Go Lebron!!!

Most of you heard about my date that didn't happen awhile ago. I got stood up. Well I heard from the guy like 3 days later and he said he "lost his phone" at work. Oh, did he lose his computer and house at the same time, too? Whatever!

I have to go get my car's emissions and inspection done today...ahhhh pretty sure my car isn't going to pass. Whatever!

Confession Sunday

Here's a new one I just made up, Confession Sunday! Feel free to tell me yours, too.

1. I confess that I actually like the new Heidi Montag song Blackout. My kids do, too. Still hate Heidi, but love the song!

2. I confess that I have made up a few stories to end a date if I'm not "feeling" the guy.

3. I confess that I am slacking on Weight Watchers.

4. I confess that I love to go fake-baking aka tanning.

5. I confess to being a Facebook addict.

6. I confess I just re-pierced my nose! I love it, thank you very much.

7. I confess that some nights I don't even clean up the house after the kids go to bed. Sometimes I just lay on the couch and doze. Hey, I don't have a husband or anyone to impress. :)

8. I confess to forgiving pretty easily, but if someone has hurt me pretty bad it is very hard for me to forget.

9. I confess that I am baby hungry. (Don't worry Mom and Nicole, I'm not gonna get pregnant again until I'm married!)

10. I confess to lying on the couch in the morning if Jaden wakes up way too early. Jaden will watch a tv show and I try to fall back to sleep, but usually can't.

11. I confess that I actually love being a single mom and am terrified to get married and lose my privacy and space.

Flashback Friday

My bff Kimber and I were pregnant at the same time...twice. Well twice for me and once for her. Here we are on March 31, 2007

I was 7 months pregnant and I'm pretty sure she was only 3 months pregnant here.

And then here we are again September 18, 2007...the same baby is in Kimber's belly and a new one in mine!
Kimber had her little girl McKenzie Shae only 2 days later and I was only barely 2 months pregnant with Kaylie. I just think it's pretty funny, it usually doesn't happen. :)

Thankful Thursday

I am thankful that Kris Allen won American Idol.


I am thankful for my step-dad Walt. He always does so much for me when my mom and him come to visit. I always have a list of things I need help with around the house, fixing things, installing things, etc. He is a very sweet, genuine guy and I'm so happy my mom married him. I'm looking forward to going "home" next week to my parents. :)


I am thankful for my friends Nicole and Carlene. We have so much fun hanging out together and always have good conversations. I know I can always count on them and I really love them to pieces!


I am thankful that the kids and I get to go on a vacation next week! Arizona here we come!!!

Whatever Wednesday

Some of you may have gotten a crazy, angry text message from me tonight saying that my power was out in my house and I was going to kill someone because I wasn't going to be able to watch American Idol. At about 3:45 pm my power just went out when it was storming outside and I heard a little bit of an explosion. Apparently the transformer blew out up the street and they were estimating that it would take about 5 hours to be fixed. SERIOUSLY!?! The night of the American Idol finale! Are you kidding me? I was so mad and sad. I called Nicole and told her what had happened and she laughed, yes I repeat, she laughed. She thought it was so funny that it was happening on finale night of all nights. I told her that we are no longer friends and hung up on her. Just kidding, I didn't hang up on her, but I did say we are no longer friends. :) I ♥ you Nicole. Be thankful I am a forgiving person. :) hehehe!
Thankfully at 7:15 the power came back on and I was able to watch most of American Idol!!! I am so happy that Kris won! I jumped up and down in excitement when Ryan said his name! wooohooo! When he sang with Keith Urban, I thought it was so cute. Good show! I can't wait to buy Kris' first album!
