This cracks me up(especially the ending)! Dont mind Ariel's shaggy bangs.. we're growing them out and unless we're going out, she doesnt let me fix her hair. Stubborn girl!

How was your 4th?
I hope everyone had a fantastic 4th of July! ours was pretty good! My parents were over here for part of the day (they came in on the 3rd). So we got to spend some time with them. They left around 3 pm. Jesse & I had no idea where we were taking the girls to see fireworks as this is our first year over here. We ended up going over to Maggie Valley. Oh my gosh that place was packed! Every hotel had no vacancy. Cars everywhere. People in chairs lining in the streets and at the festival grounds. We parked & walked around. We didn't bring any chairs so in the end, we decided to watch the fireworks from our van (yes I said van! We got a decent deal on a used Toyota Previa so now I have something to drive when I need to run errands and Jesse doesnt have to take a day or half day off to chauffer me around. yay!). The fireworks were long. LOL. Jesse & I laughed that it was the never ending fireworks display. Then the finale came and it was the never ending finale! Then afterwards when people were leaving, I guess they had a few they forgot to shoot up, so they did those. It was hilarious! The girls loved them this year. I have some video (very dark so you cant see the girls but you can hear their 'wow's!). Even little miss Emmalyn was mesmerized she just laid in my lap staring up at the sky watching them! Now for some pics!

Yikes!
well it's Air-Air's turn to be sick :o( She woke up this morning crying about how bad her throat hurts and choking on her spit. Same thing I just went through with Clarity 2 days ago. Peachy. My poor babies.. I so hate it when they get sick! Hopefully Emma won't get it..or Jesse... or myself. I guess I get to spend today disinfecting the house & toys. Be right back.. Ariel just got so choked she puked. UGH! Well thank God for small miracles it was just a bunch of spit. Poor baby! She just keeps wandering around the house crying and asking if she can give her bad germ to me because she doesnt want it anymore. Breaks my heart. I'm praying she feels better super soon.
I was watching an infomercial this morning about John Becks Free & Clear system. Supposedly this guy will send you all the info you need to buy a house for a couple hundred dollars. All you have to do is pay back taxes on it and it's yours! ha! I decided to look it up online & see if it had actually worked for anyone (I honestly didnt believe it) and my gut was right. It is a HUGE scam and people are losing their butts on hundreds of thousands of dollars. How is this guy not sitting in prison? It amazes me that people can come up with something crazy, put it on tv, scam people out of butt loads of money, keep doing it, and still walk away richy rich. oooh Karma is so gonna have to bite him in the butt one day!
Well I guess I better stop eating these peanut butter M&Ms (thanks mom.. lol) and get my butt off of the computer and get to cleaning. Hopefully I'll have a happier post next time!

I wish
So much time hasnt passed between updates. My blog is my baby but lately my internet hasnt been so wonderful. We're probably going to check into getting cable internet soon.. this satellite mess just isnt cutting it. But it's what we have for now so I'll just have to be thankful! lol.
Poor Clarity is sick... again! It has been a week with her. It started last Sunday... she got stung on the foot by a bee. Well her foot swelled up & turned red & hot. She couldnt walk on that foot and cried about it. Sleep was out of the question. Monday comes & she's running a fever and has a rash on her shoulders & tummy. This made me call Jesse home from work to take her to the ped. We get there and there are cops everywhere. They haul some guy away and impound his car. Well the cops being there made our wait take FOREVER. We finally get back there and Jesse asked the nurse if it was anything we should be worried about with all the cops everywhere. She told us no that some boy had been brought in with injuries so severe they had to life flight him to asheville. Poor baby must've been really bad since Harris Regional is right next door! I never have heard any more about this so I dont know exactly what happened or if he was okay. But anyways we see the ped and she said she thinks Clarity has a virus on top of the sting that it was a viral rash. I guess it's a good thing that mom of those boys didnt use me to babysit (guess she found someone closer to where she wouldnt have to backtrack.. she never called). I would have had to call her to come get them the first day I watched them to take Clarity to the doctor! lol. Flash forward to now and yesterday Clarity starts whining about having a sore throat. She's not running a fever but her throat is just bugging her. ugh. Poor girl. It's been a rough week!
Grandma, Abu & Patrick came over to see the girls this week. Ariel was thrilled to death. And it made it even better that her Uncle Patrick came along! She is always talking about him and how she misses him and when is he coming to see her. So when she saw him standing there, I think she about had a fit! It was a nice surprise :o)
Well other than all that, not much else is going on. Emma is growing like a weed and amazing me more & more everyday. she is giggling, grabbing at her feet, trying to play with toys hanging above her. Just getting so big and taking so much in! I love it when she wakes up in the mornings... she just seems so happy to be here and just lights up with a huge smile. She melts my heart. All of my girls do!!!
Jesse is going to Hendersonville to look at a vehicle for me today. If it's as good as they say and he approves he's going to give them some money to hold it & the rest when our check comes in. I hate that our stimulus is going to be gone in one shot... but I could so use something. Just having the truck and being stuck at home all week is getting to me.
well I'm going to take some new pics & vid of the kiddos today and I'll have that put up soon. Seems so much has been going on lately. I'm exhausted!

Big Update
I'm probably going to be all over the place with this post as it is midnight and my mind is scattered everywhere and lots has been going on.
Jesse missed work yesterday. He pulled a muscle or did something to his lower back and he literally had to roll out of bed. lol. He had been up all night the night before and come morning he was no better so he stayed home. Luckily the r&r helped him and he was back at work today and feeling much better. It did end up being a great day though...I was browsing on Craigslist (I did get that bumbo and tummy mat.. it was a steal and I'm so happy!) and came across a listing for a trundle bed & dresser for $150. The couple had a son about Ariel's age and he had used the top bed for not even a month and the bottom wasn't used at all. The couple was moving and just didnt want to deal with taking it. Well I emailed and wasn't expecting them to have it. They did! I asked the girl if we could just pay like $120 or $130 for the bed that the girls didnt need a dresser and she said that was fine, we'd work something out. I talk Jesse into driving to Asheville.. I really wanted to check this out! Well let me tell you we hit the jackpot! The mattresses are about brand new... one even had the warranty tag still on it...and they were Serta! So comfy! The trundle bed is in excellent shape and what did the people ask for it....$115! We hauled that baby home! You can't even buy one of the mattresses alone for that price. So the girls now have big girl beds in their room. Clarity is snoozing away in hers right now.. and Emiley is in the other. Yes Emiley... she spent the night tonight :o) Lisa brought her over to play and she didnt want to go home so I told her she could just stay. I had my moments when I wondered what in the world I was thinking.. but it wasn't her.. it was just having three kids running around the house making messes! lol.
The woman with the two boys came over with Camden and Carter yesterday. The are two of the cutest, sweetest little guys! Her and her husband were nice.. they've really been put through the ringer as far as babysitters go so they are being very picky and cautious. Who can blame them? I havent even left my kids with a sitter that wasn't family yet! She did love the house, the yard, and she said I was the best yet (She has been interviewing like 7 other sitters). So hopefully they pick me. I don't know yet, they havent called but she said she hoped to be bringing the boys back. Camden didn't want to leave.. lol. The dad says, "Well that's a great sign! He's comfortable here". She's hoping to be using someone by next Monday and I hope that's me. I guess I'll find out soon. We could really use the $$.
What else... oh yeah. I'm on my way to becoming a cloth diapering mama! It is EXPENSIVE to start but I think in the long run it will be worth it. I'm honestly not doing it to save money... it would probably be cheaper to keep using disposables honestly... but I am hating throwing away tons of diapers to be hauled off into a landfill when I could be more "green" about it. I'm a nutcase about recycling and taking care of the environment. Before I moved here and really started recycling, I didnt think it would make much of a difference but it really does. I have one or two big blue bags full of recyclables out by the curb and just like two bags of trash. When before we would have 5 or more bags of trash every week. I just want to do my part to take care of the world my babies are going to be growing up in.... now if only we could get rid of the crime and scumbags like that... recycle them into something more valuable... wouldn't that be something?
Well everyone is sleeping.. I guess I should be doing the same. Dont know what time the girls are gonna wake me up asking for breakfast and tearing through the house so I better snooze while I can. Goodnight!

Yay!
for Craigslist! As soon as Jesse comes inside & helps me get the girls ready we're going to pick up a bumbo seat & tummy mat new for $20! The girls son hated both so score for us! I was just looking at bumbo seats last week but couldnt justify spending $40 on one. So I get my bumbo after all. I doubt she'll like the tummy mat either, but hey, it's worth a shot!
You liking my pop music selection you are most likely listening to as you read this post? Yeah I never grew out of my teenage love for boybands and pop! So if you don't like it... tough... deal with it. Either that or you can scroll down to the bottom of my blog and turn it off. lol. Well I still have a ton to do around here.. just wanted to jump on and update a bit for the day.
Oh yeah we have had rain showers all day! woohoo! Maybe my hay like brown grass will be happy and turn green again! God I sure hope so.

Could be good!
well a mom got in touch with me about my ad in the iwanna for babysitting (as much as I've enjoyed all my time off since Lisa quit needing me...I need to babysit again! We need $$). She has two boys (eek boys! I dont have any so that would be nice!) ages 1 and I think 2 1/2 or somethng along those lines. I know they are 18 months apart. The best part she needs someone FULL time Monday- Friday (we would still have our family weekends.. YES!) from like 7:30-5. She said she's going out of town this weekend but will call me back Monday to hopefully see the house and meet us. It sounds too good to be true so I'm not holding my breath. she said she's called a bunch of people so I'm sure I have competition. So this weekend Jesse & I are going to go crazy cleaning & babyproofing since she has little ones. We need to for Emmalyn anyways. It's not a bad thing to get a jump start on that. I'm just crossing my fingers & toes & praying big time. I guess we'll know something Tuesday. I hope so!

Thanks Misty!!!
I found this WONDERFUL video on her blog & I have to share! They are sooo much hotter now than they were back then! Makes me even more excited for October, I tell you!

A vid!
Ignore my goofy laugh! I'm a dork! I should win a mom of the year award for giggling like a goon while my poor baby chokes on water!
Water World
mom & dad (aka grandma & abu) came over on Sunday and left yesterday. They brought the girls a slip-n-slide which has been hours upon hours of endless enjoyment! To be honest I can't keep them off of it. I tried it once and I'm not sure I'll muster up the courage to do it again. When I went down I felt as if I popped my shoulder off and my stomach muscles were sore last night. I guess I'm too old! lol. Anyways here are some pics of the girlies having big fun!

Giggles!
She is just getting too big too fast! I know.. I know.. I think I repeat myself a million times but it's true! Emmalyn started doing full blown giggles yesterday. Not the breath sounding kind of a laugh.. I mean a real giggle! Ariel, Clarity & I were all laughing at her! I was singing that so much better song to her and then I'd go down and tickle her tummy and she would just squeal. LOVE it!!
This wont be a long post.. I've got the girls chicken nuggets & fries in the oven for lunch and it will be done in a few minutes.
Not much been going on.. just cleaning and trying to get everything done. It is a never ending battle. Of course I guess having three little ones in the house.. I can't expect it to stay clean after I do it. It's a nice fantasy having to only clean once a week but I've learned it's a daily thing in my life. blah. Why can't I be one of those people that love to clean?! Or even better why can't I just be rich and just have a maid.. and a cook. lol. Keep dreaming!
The heat sucks! The girls are staying inside (they are allowed to go out but only after I put sunscreen on them and they are REQUIRED to come in at least every five to ten minutes for a drink and to cool off). But it's been so hot even they dont want to go out for very long and they usually wait until the sun starts going down to go out & play. I know others are hotter (lol Misty... triple digits.. GAH). Jesse put our window unit in last night and we dont run in much. I think it's because we live in a brick home that it stays bearable even when it's 95 outside! But I do turn the A/C off and on throughout the day just to keep things comfortable.
Well Ariel just informed me that Clarity has poured Nesquik everywhere. Gah. That kid... I swear! Terrible Two's no doubt... I dread the 3's... she's a handful now! But.. I love her!

So Much Better
I was watching Legally Blonde the Musical: Search for Elle Woods on MTV this morning. Those girls auditioning are amazing. I mean every one of them has such talent !. That show has made me want to see the Broadway Show so bad! I know I'd love it. Anyways the song "So much better" has been stuck in my head all day long. lol. Here is a clip of Laura Bell Bundy (The Elle Woods in Broadway now that they are getting a replacement for). This show just looks too cute! And you gotta love the note she has to hold at the end of this song.. I think I would so pass out!

Today was
a pretty great day! Nothing spectacular happened but it was just one of those days that just goes smoothly... where everything seems effortless. Nice. It started off great and I think I have my ER post to thank for that. I woke up out of a dream where George Clooney was my boyfriend & bringing me flowers. lmao. Dont get me wrong... Jesse's the love of my life & I wouldnt trade him... but that was nice of God to give me George for a bit & have no guilt involved. woohoo! ;o)
Jesse came home & grilled us some chicken. Let me tell you it was amazing. I'm so lucky to have a guy that will work all day and still come home and help me out with dinner. He's outside right now putting the finishing touches on his fountain he's been working on. Nate (the welder thats working with him) did an awesome job on the steel part of it. I'm going to have to take a picture of this thing. It's so creative & I love it!! Hopefully he can start selling these for some good $$. You wont find anything else like it in the world, that's for sure. oh and while I'm on the subject.. please say a prayer for Nate's little girl. I think she's around Ariel's age & at Duke Hospital in Raleigh. She had surgery in her brain yesterday to remove a tumor. I dont know much else.. if it was cancerous, if she'll be okay, but I'm sure Nate will update Jesse when he knows. Nate stayed here with his other kids & his wife is with their daughter. It must be so hard... so please keep them in your thoughts & prayers. I can't imagine.
I'm going to try to get some video of the girls and put it up asap. I NEED video of them. I LOVE having moments captured that I can replay. Especially of my babies. Okay I'm getting sentimental. Anyways hopefully I'll get some good stuff tonight and have it up soon :o)

Another Addiction
Another addiction of mine. ER. I'm always so late catching on to shows and this one I'm only about um.. 14 seasons late! lol. But that's good news for me because I get to have my fix everyday between 10 am and noon. I have it record on dvr because having three kids God knows it's a rare thing I actually get to sit down, relax & enjoy my show. Right now I'm watching the very early seasons with George Clooney (Dr. Ross.. the finest pediatrician I've ever seen) and Noah Wyle (John Carter.. such a hot little med student). Um yeah if these guys were my doctors I think I'd be sick all the time. lmao.

Our Seats
Okay so we'll be in section 6. Not too shabby I dont guess. Of course I'd love to be closer but even though my tickets were going through almost the minute they went on sale.. that's what we got. Somehow ticket scalpers have the really good seats and are trying to sell them online for hundreds or even a thousand dollars! Crazy! Crazy & unfair but hey, like I said before I'm just happy that from the looks of it we will have decent seats. I still can't believe they sell tickets this early. A lot can happen between now & October 29th. I'm praying everything goes okay and Ariel & I can go. I can't believe I'm already going to be pulling my kid out of kindergarten for a day and a half to go to a concert... her first year of going to school! lol. Trust me that's not going to happen often! In fact this may very well be the only time that happens for her so she better love it! Goodness my nerves are already excited... why does this have to be such a long wait? Not that I want time to fly by... I dont.. because it goes too fast as it is. I just wish the concert were sooner than October! Well this gives me something to threaten Ariel with if she's misbehaving. She's so excited to go... lol! I guess that's how you can tell she's mine ;o)
A Friend of Mine
posted on her blog about her love for Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie. It made me smile because I think everybody has that celebrity (or 2 or 3 or.. you get the picture) that they just adore. My celebs that I love are Ryan Reynolds (though he's gotten knocked down in my book for getting engaged! Pah! As if that's allowed. I'm so kidding) and my other is :
Is she not adorable? Now usually my celebrity fascinations drive Jesse crazy. He's not into them like I am & doesnt understand why I like to read People and all that jazz but he makes an exception with Reese I think. I can talk about her and he doesnt act like I'm boring him to death and he even let me give Emmalyn the middle name Reese... and yes I did that because 1) I do.. I just love Reese Witherspoon.. she has such a cute & sweet personality and 2) the name Reese means enthusiastic (I'm big on the fact all my kid's names have to have meaning and be special) and enthusiasm is a great thing in my books!
Got the tickets!!!
well we will be on the floor center stage towards the back (I guess Gold card members got the really awesome seats.. lmao). But I'm not going to complain! I think it's going to be an experience, that's for sure! I'm just praying it's a good one.. I know it will be for me... but for Ariel! I think she'll be nervous & scared at first with the loudness but I think as it goes on, she'll have a blast! I can imagine this will be one of those things she talks about often afterwards! Sure hope so! If only I could figure out a way to meet them or at least get her (who am I kidding.. and MYSELF of course) autographs :o)

Stormy Sunday
I guess it was supposed to storm today. hmm. I didnt realize. I guess it's a good thing we went out & did our grocery shopping yesterday. We didn't go mini golfing as we planned. Ariel begged for a toy cash register at Walmart and we gave her the choice she could either have that or go golfing. She picked the cash register. Her & Clarity played with it for hours after we got home. Jesse took us to Ryan's for dinner last night since we wont be doing anything for my birthday. Of course stupid me gorged on salad! Salad! lol. So between my salad and rolls I was stuffed. Never eat salad first because if you get full on that as soon as you get home you feel famished. At least I did. bummer.
well today is the day I get to scrub the house. yippy. Beth (my mother in law) is coming to stay with us more than likely sometime this week. We're not sure for how long but we are pretty sure it's going to be a while. I had the whole story typed up on here yesterday but as I read it on my blog, I felt my blog was tainted & since I was so disturbed by it, I removed it. She just needs to get away from her husband right now. What he's done, he may have driven her away for good. I know one thing.. I would NEVER go back. So anyways this will be something time will tell. I have no idea what's going to happen. If she's going to be here for a while, if she moves with her mom to Florida, if she goes back home. I asked Jesse what he thought and he has no idea either.
Well I guess I better get some breakfast & get started. I have a lot to do today.
