Beckett Anthony: 18 Months

Beckett had his 18 month well visit on my due date - 5/27.
Playing in the waiting room.

We did the usual measurements and he is 32.5 " tall (which puts him in the 57%) and he weighs 24.6 lbs (54% for his age). He's going to be my mini but mighty little guy!



Playing with the books in Dr Schnick's Suess room. 

My feisty little dude is getting so big. He's starting to lose the last little bit of his baby phase and is almost a full blown toddler. To be honest, it makes me a little sad that I don't get to thoroughly enjoy this last little bit of him being a baby with his new brother being here. I'm trying to soak in every second that I can. He's such a sour patch kid. Haha! He'll hug you and kiss you one minute then punch you in the nose and giggle. He's started to speak more and more clearly and saying more words than just gibberish. Most of the time I can make out a word or two when he's talking now. His favorite words are "mine", "more", "please", "bite", "Braz", "Jake", "go", and "Daddy". Much to my dismay, he now calls me "mom" instead of "mommy". :( He's too little to call me "mom" and drop the "-my" from the end. Such is the fate of younger siblings I suppose.
I love my little screeching, tough and tumble little stinker so much!! Don't grow up too fast ok my little love?

Ramblings of a Panic Attack

I’m having a panic attack. These stupid meds are killing me. I hate them. Stick with it, stick with it, stick with it. I know it’s the meds. I just have to get through this and relax for a couple weeks. I hate this job. It’s not even that bad it’s just HORRIBLY boring. I don’t want to do this every day. I appreciate learning the process and gaining experience but it’s not what I like to do. I don’t even like accounting that much to begin with but there are aspects I like and I know it. The pay is killing me. I need money. I can’t continue to be completely broke before the first week of the month is over. Collections calls ringing all day. I’m applying to jobs like crazy. I’m trying so hard. I’m just going to keep pushing forward. Keep. Pushing. Forward. I hate that I wanted a life with Jason. That I was too blind to realize what he was. That I was ok with him even from the very beginning when I knew better. Why didn’t I want better things for myself? Seeing him makes me want to vomit.

Tersinar Christmas 2015

After graduation, we raced down to Hepler to spend Christmas with my family and mom and dad's. We ordered chicken for dinner (of course - yum yum!) and we had some of the traditional Christmas goodies too, like pie and Grandma Sonja's cinnamon apples, French cookies and cheese ball.  Hudson made the rounds with everyone :) Uncle Dustin is the best to play with After dinner and some visiting, it was time to open presents! The loot! Kids first of course. The anarchy! Hudson among the shreds of wrapping paper Big kids' turn! Opening my Royals blanket <3 I LOVE IT! Thanks Jen :) I got Grandma's name again :) Hudson helped play Santa Mom loved her gift from Heather - a frame with all our family's pictures in it. Jason's gift from Raymond. The kiddos watched a movie or two after we were finished opening gifts.  Later after everyone left, mom, dad and us siblings (minus josh) played Cards Against Humanity... HILARIOUS. Haven't laughed that hard in a very long ti

Jason's Graduation: Part II

Dr. Allen, DC 4/5 of our marriage has been spent working towards this day. To say we are excited would be a great understatement. I can't even put into words how excited/happy/scared/proud/relieved, etc, etc, etc we are. There just are no words. Jason has worked tirelessly towards this goal. Countless hours of studying. Sacrificing time with me and the kids. And all the work he put in advertising and recruiting patients into the clinic. Personal training early mornings and late nights to help makes ends meet.  And I think of all the sacrifice we've made as a family. Living in a townhouse and then a tiny apartment. I've been the primary provider and a mostly single parent during some stages. And a constant cheerleader and standing behind pushing. We've both been pushing uphill for what seems like forever towards this goal. And we've made it. Not to discount his hard work, because he was the one who really accomplished this goal but I like to think we accomplished thi
