Up early

Bella got sick Friday night - high fever, coughing, runny nose... ARRRRGGGGGGG... I hate when she's sick! Yesterday we stayed home from church and I don't think we are leaving today for Billy's mom's house.. maybe tomorrow.. can't deal with a sick baby at someone else's house..

Anyways, she's up and so I'm up.. sorta.. lol.. *yawn*

And while I'm up what better thing than to post a picture or 2 of my little girl :)

We went for a walk with my parents and Bella rode her 4-wheeler. She pushed the "go" button all the way there and half way back. It was by far the longest she'd "driven" her little car.

Here's Bella at her Music class at the YMCA. She loves playing with all the instruments and helping the teacher put stuff away. She's *so* organized!! I wonder why... :)

She *loves* going to the park! Nothing much else to say :)
And last, but not least, Bella riding her first bike. It's really a tricicle but she absolutely loves it nonetheless! It was raining, so she went up and down the hall a hundred times!! Even after she fell and we put ice on her head (for 5 seconds) she said she wanted to go out and ride the bike again! LOL Funny girl!

Vote for Bella! :)

News, updates and announcements

Gosh! it's been 10 days since I last posted. I was sick for 2 weeks so that's partly why I've been out of sight.. Billy got sick too and Bella has been on the fence.

We are getting ready to go over to Billy's mom's house for Thanksgiving week and Bella is so excited to see the cows and grandma, of course! :) We are going to spend the whole week there and I cant wait to eat some yummy turkey and everything else! Please keep KJ (Billy's sister) in your prayers. She'll be having brain surgery on Nov. 30th to remove a tumor. Billy will be going up to Maryland with her for the surgery, so pray for me that I'll be ok by myself with Bella :)

Also, I got a job!! :) I'll be working part time at Michaels. It's seasonal and I'm hoping I can get the "real" job I applied for at the City of Houston's Emergency Management office.

And last but not least, is anybody interested in buying one (or more) Holy Bears? Bella's school is doing a fundraisers and they are only $10/each and SUPER CUTE!! You can see all the cute bears at www.holybears.net and email me with your order or post a comment here. Thanks!

Feeling sick

I hate being sick. And I hate when Billy and Bella get sick. It's just miserable and not fun at all.. I've been up since 3:30 coughing and feeling yiaky.. well, I've been coughing and feeling yiaky for a week now. That's partly why I decided to go to the ER at 5 am! My throat felt like it was burning when I woke up and I didnt know if perhaps it was strep or something worst.. BUT, apparently all I have is allergies and got 3 prescriptions for some antibiotics, steroids and allergy meds. I hope to start feeling better soon. I'm so sick and tired of coughing and feeling like crap :( Plus I've been drinking TONS of water and I go to the bathroom every 10 minutes..

I'm just glad Bella stayed with my parents last night so Billy and I could rest - even if I woke up at 3 in the morning!

Like Father, Like Daughter...

They love being silly. They love making funny faces. They love each other to pieces!! They just stood there in front of the mirror in Bella's bathroom and started imitating each other. It's just too cute and funny to see them play and enjoy each other.

Halloween Pictures

Bella was a Panda Bear in the morning and a Butterfly at night :) The Panda outfit is actually her church clothes but I figured since it was Halloween I'd dress her up in the Panda line from Gymboree. And then at night, our church had a fall festival program for the kids. And she actually wore the same costume she wore for her birthday in June.
