To Do List: Call FEMA

Yep I need to pencil in a time to call FEMA sometime soon. I am seriously thinking that Zilla may be a 5 on the Tornado Fujita Scale! His new hobby has become "lets see how much havoc I cam cause in a short amount of time" and I have to say that I'm not really digging this new hobby as it always ends with me wanting a nanny cleaning.

Doesn't Look Comfortable

Zilla certainly has an odd idea of comfort that's for sure. I found him IN his toy box when I went in to get him after nap one day! He had a pillow in there which made it better but he left the toys in too - oh well maybe it's a boy thing but I personally prefer my memory foam!

This is How All Weddings Should Be

OMG my sister sent me this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-94JhLEiN0 and its SOOOOOO dang funny. Seriously every wedding should be this fun! Go watch and enjoy - sorry I don't know how to put the video actually on here - if you know and want to share feel free!!

Why you shouldn't drink and Text

Okay recently a friend (she said I could say who but I won't) told me about a nice night out drinking with her friends and I just couldn't help but use this as an example of why people shouldn't be anywhere near their cell phones when drinking. Okay heres the back story: She works for a company and met this guy at an out of towm work conference. They live on opposite coasts but over the moths have become quite close -just friends up until this point even though they do talk everyday- and she recently decided that she wouldn't mind going a little beyond friends with him. So....she decided that she should tell him, via drunk txt, that she likes him. Here are the texts: (her comments -to me- are in RED )
Me: Hi Hun...how are you?
Boy: hey hun! getting ready for my flight later...drinking time! aowwww!
Me: I need to woo you do you have time? (classic)
Boy: plenty of time...2 drinks done
Me: Well...
Me: Apparently I suck! (have no idea why i said that but i probably do)
Boy: you don't suck! pleassssse! you rock
Me: So when are we going to see each other again?
Boy: lpl baby! (my work conference in ca)
Me: See you then :)
Boy: oh hell yeah! you and me...magic
Me: Ha ha ha...I miss your sexy ass!!! (LOL...i can't believe i agreed to you posting this)
Boy: oh the things i'd do to you...
Me: yeah yeah...tell me all about it!? (i make no sense)
Boy: when i first see you...i won't say a word...i'll wrap my arms around you and kiss you for a LONG time
Me: that would be so nice...you better not be teasing me :)
Boy: waaayyy into the truth serum...then we'd walk to my car....and why not...we'd make love
Me: Really??? I'd hope for that but your sceptical?!?! (not sure why i said he was sceptical)
Boy: who says i'm sceptical? sure things are easy...you just know :)...btw..the plane is going to take off in 10 min...will be off line for 2 hours
Me: here i go...i really like you! i like your personality and I like you...Hopefully talk to you soon...blah blah (LMAO - one of my friends should have stopped me before this one)
Boy: don't worry i like you more :) a lot more...here i go..i think about you a lot...and include you in my plans :)
Me: no worries...looking forward to seeing you soon :) (WTF am I talking about?)
Me: I was hoping we could camp (still don't know WTF i was texting.)

I have to say that my FAV part is the 'wooing' comment - it's just sooooooo dang funny that 1)someone would say this in 2009 2)a GIRL would say this at all and 3) that if said person would say this it would be via texting because the whole concept of wooing someone should not even come near any kind of modern day tecnology LOL I her but this stuff seriously made me almost shoot coffee threw my nose when she told me on the phone. Also funny is that when she e-mailed them to me she listed him as 'boy' - they are 30 lol. Ok I'm still cracking up over this. I gotta go before I pee my pants reading it.

FanFic addiction? DZ would say yes!

Okay I've been keeping myself busy with the FanFiction for a while and since I know I promised to give up some links to some good ones here goes! These are in random order and like I've said before some are seriously mild and then some most  okay all are rated M for mature so keep the kids away.

Stay Edward is an actor who falls in love with Bella his nieghbor in the small town that he goes to escape his fame. It's a cute story and there is some sex but its mostly rated M because of the language. No vampires - sorry! I liked this one it was really cute.

Tattoo Bella is a girl who doesn't believe in love but maybe Edward can change that. Lots of cursing and some sexual scenes. Rated M No vampires. This was good and there were parts where I just couldn't stop laughing!

Tattoo Two'd This is the continuation of Tattoo. Also very funny and had me totally cracking up! Still Rated M.

For the Love of Bella Alrighty this one does NOT have Edward in it instead Bella is best friends and roomates with Emmett and Jasper. Bella and Jasper figure out they have feelings for each other. Rated M for mature due to language, sexual scenes and violence. Really nice story even if Edward isn't in it. No Vamps - sorry!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun This one is Bella Rose and Alice are taking a Disney Cruise/Vacation to celebrate graduation and they happen to meet three handsome doctors on board and fall head over heels for them. Throw in a sister and some crazy "special brownies" and this story will have you bending over laughing! Some parts are just silly but then again with all that Disney you have to expect to roll your eyes a little. Again no vamps!

Shadows Bella found herself falling victim to a rapist/murderer when Detective Edward interupted the crime. They both immediately feel a connection but can he keep her safe when the killer begins stalking her? This one can get pretty intense and is quite graphic so if you can't handle reading about rape/tourture/murder then steer clear. No Vamps and obviously rated M.

I've got some more in my favs but I'll save them for later! I just love these stories - some of the people that write them do an amazing job! I've read a TON of fluff too but it's nice to have something to keep me busy! Let me know what you all think! If you have any suggestions leave them in the comments!

Birthday Bash

Okay for Zilla's b-day yesterday we had a couple of friends over for pizza, cake and ice cream. I made Zilla a 3D Lightning McQueen Cake (that I carved myself and will NEVER be doing again) and he loved it! Here are some pictures:

Happy Birthday Zilla!!!

Three years ago at 11:50am I brought the sweetest little boy into the world. Zilla came out a nice big 9lbs 15.3oz and has continued to be a huge part of my world ever since. He is constantly getting into (and starting) trouble but since he has the most adorable smile on earth we let him stick around HAHA. So anyway I just wanted to say a bug THANK YOU to the Lord above for blessing me with an Angel here on Earth!


Anna - I'll post some links later - I promise lol

Who needs sleep? Um, Me thats who

Last night I got zero sleep and I'm seriously paying for it now. There was however a reason why I choose to keep my lids open. Yesterday evening DZ, Zilla and I met a couple of old friends at a park here on post to let the kids all play together while we all chatted. Well Zilla was sitting on his knees on one of the concrete benches coloring with chalk when all of the sudden he lost his balance and fell backwards. He fell off the back of the bench and landed about 2 feet below on concrete. He hit his head pretty hard and as you can imagine I was worried out of my mind. We didn't let him go to bed and we also checked his pupils and his grip reflex not to mention that he was acting normal so we were pretty sure that all was well but...well my mom brain just couldn't actually even consider going to bed. So I checked on him throughout the night to make sure that he was breathing and that the knot on the back of his noggin wasn't getting to large or anything. He's currently sporting an awesome sized goose egg but otherwise seems to be doing well. Today would be the day that DZ has to work a day shift so no nap for me. What we do for our kids. I have to say thought that seeing him fall was some seriously scarey stuff and I don't really think that my heart actually needed that jolt. He didn't go to bed until almost 11pm and that turd stil got up before 7!

I'm SO excited!!

I just found out recently that my bestest friend and her family might be moving here to Podunk!!!! I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO friggin excited about it that I just can't stand it. I was jumping around like a crackhead for a while and if I could smile any bigger my head would explode!! This place sure wouldn't suck nearly as much if they were here!!!

I know I've been MIA for a bit but I've just been busy reading my smutty fanfiction and signing up for my accounting classes - I'm sure you can just feel my excitement radiating through your computer about that LOL. I wish that either one of those were a good excuse but since they aren't I'll just say sorry and try harder to be around for you guys!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!!!!

Hope everyone has an awesome fourth!!!!!

How Mean

Yesterday I was relaxing on the couch with DaddyZilla when all of the sudden he looks over at me and busts out laughing. To give him a little credit he was trying to hold it back but he just couldn't for long so when I asked what was so darn funny he proceeds to tell me that my hair is sticking up on either side of my head like horns! Well gee I wonder why this would bother me. So when I got offended and asked him "oh like a bull?" (he does this a lot - comparing me to various farm animals) he then said "nope like the devil" WHAT?!?!?  Then he went on to tell me that -to him- comparing me to the devil was better than comparing me to a bull. Um no, no it's not. It is not my fault that the whispy hairs on my head curl -my mom has some seriously curly hair- but to say that I look like the devil and to then put up his fingers in a cross manner when I looked at him made me want to beat the freaking crap out of him is just wrong.

FanFiction

Okay I'm usually late on this kinds of stuff but knowing my serious {yes I'm totally admitting it} addiction, hey you'd be addicted too if you finally found some books you could reread - don't judge me, to the twilight series books WHY ON EARTH didn't any of my darling online buddies tell me about all the Twilight FanFiction stories floating around on the internet? I'm demanding an answer!

I read one yeaterday and although it was VERY loosely related to the actual flow/plot of twilight it was super duper good. I've started reading a new one today and it looks really good to. Some of the ones I've heard of are pretty low key and some are pretty darn smutty. It has kept me locked up in my office all weekend but oh well - good brain stimulation is worth it right? Once I get a few compiled that I like I'll post them for you but if YOU have any {don't be holding anything back from your friends - its rude} then post them in the comments!! YEAH POSTING COMMENTS IS GOOD - I REALLY LIKE COMMENTS hint hint hint

Wow just wow

It's just crazy that in such a short time we have lost two American Icons. Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett are both now hopefully in a better place. No matter what people think of either of them I feel extremely sad for their family and friends especially their children. I just Pray that they can get through this and be left with lots of loving memories.

Freebirthing

**The opinions expressed here on this blog are exactly that, just my personal opinions, I mean absolutely no disrespect for anyone who agrees with this method of childbirth. So don't anyone go and get on any high horses okay?**

I watched the show FreeBirthing on Discovery Health the other night and I couldn't help but watch it - in that same way you can't help from looking at a train wreck. The show follows moms who are practicing the Free birthing method of childbirth. These people choose to give birth with no drugs, no midwife and no medical support whatsoever.

Now I'm all about the fact that women should be able to choose how they want to give birth I mean we are carrying the kid after all but this show really put a nasty knot in my stomach and I watched with my mouth hanging open. Home births are one thing but these ladies had absolutely NO ONE with any medical training nearby! One of the couples not only had no medical personnel present at the birth but she also choose not to have ANY prenatal care and leading up to her birth she suspected (knowledge she gained not from medical school but by using the blood pressure machine at Wal-Mart and a stethoscope she bought off Ebay) that she had placenta previa! Um I didn't have that condition while pregnant but I know that it can be VERY dangerous for mom and baby. That lady had someone come to her house to teach her infant CPR instead of just going to get looked at "just in case" her baby couldn't breath when it came out - she asked the CPR instructor how long the baby would have to be without oxygen before it died "just in case" and when asked about that very real possibility she said "well I know it could happen and I know I would feel really bad about that" Um gee you think? They tied the baby's umbilical cord with a SHOESTRING!! I mean really that's just ugh.

There are mid-wives out there that will do a home birth and assist as little or as much as you want so WHY IN THE HECK would you do this and possibly put your baby at risk just so that you can have the kind of birth experience you want? I mean I just could not imagine doing anything that would put my son in danger - even a little bit of danger. Isn't a little doctors help worth your kid living a full and healthy life? I know that our bodies are designed for childbirth but all it takes is a few minutes without oxygen and that baby is DEAD - I just can't fathom being so selfish that I would risk my son for anything at all. Maybe my opinion would be different if I'd have had a horrible birthing experience but somehow I can't think it would.

What do you all think? Yep I'm asking you all to ACTUALLY COMMENT!! Come on I know you all can do it - I believe it you!!

We love Sticks

While we were visiting Nanna in Orlando Zilla became aware of Yogurt in Sticks (GoGurt is one brand). He fell in love with them! He decided to call them "sticks" and it's stuck. He practically begs me for one every.single.day!!!! He says "yumm mom need a stick, it's so yummy" LOL he really cracks me up.

Too Cute For Words

Picture Fun!!
Here is Zilla being super duper cute carrying an umbrella:

Zilla rolling golf balls with Mawmaw and bouncing on the trampoline with Nanna:

Playing at the playground;

Sitting outside in the hallway during Uncle Brandons Graduation:

Wearing his new cool hunting shirt that Grandpa got him:

Workin Hard For The Money

Here is Zilla workin hard for his spending money LOL

Fun at the Splash Park

I took Zilla to the Splash Park that just opened up here on base and he had a BLAST!! He loved running through the water and playing with the other kids! He ran around with his friend Lucian playing dinosour or monster or something that involved growling and running I'm not 100% sure LOL. They have four big rings that are lined up to form a circle and although Zilla was intially scared of them he soon found that he loved to "run in the rain" - thats what he called them haha- and kept that up for a LONG time. The splash park is gated off from the big pool -that has a awesome looking slide- and Zilla was totally disgruntled that I wouldn't take him to the pool we had a good time. I am going to request that they consider a kiddie pool though cause I just can't take him to a big pool by myself. Oh well DZ promised that we would all go together soon and he can fight with Zilla in the pool. Here are some pictures! Enjoy!

I just saved us some Money!

Yesterday I came to the realization that our dryer was not actually drying anything, it was getting hot but the clothes weren't dry. I didn't notice this until I had one load in the washer and then the one I was trying to dry. Not wanting to hang clothes up outside (not that we have a line out there or anything) DZ and I rigged up a line inside the laundry room to hang up the clothes. Here it is:


Well after I took down my now cardboard feeling clothes - seriously HOW do people dry their clothes this way? - we talked about having to go out and buy a new dryer. I wasn't really excited about spending several hundred bucks when we didn't know why it wasn't drying. I looked into the lint trap and sure enough I got like two handfuls of dog hair and stuff out from under where the lint collects. It dries now!!!!!! I love saving money and now I don't have to dry clothes on that seriously crappy clothes line!! YAY ME!!!

HE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally. Zilla PEED IN THE POTTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This morning I was relaxing on the couch reading a book and I heard the sound of Zilla peeing so I turned around expecting to catching him whizzing on the floor. Nope that's not what I found though instead I saw him standing in front of his potty PEEING!!!!!!!! He had just walked up to the potty stood over it and was doing his business. He didn't even get much on the seat - he's got better aim already than most grown men LOL.

I was so excited I scooped him up and started shouting with joy!!! Then we woke up and daddy to tell him and then text everyone we know pretty much with the awesome news!! Oh I could still dance I'm so stinking excited.
