well, life has changed at our house! now we have our 2 under 2. i will save the details but my VBAC (vaginal birth after csection) was successful...barely. Bria loves Charlee and wants to kiss her all the time, she also likes to get into things while i am feeding charlee since she knows it is more difficult for me to get her into trouble. Charlee had some problems sucking early on and they were worried since she didnt eat for over 24 hours, so bottles and formula it is and she is doing better. we sometimes still have to convince her that the bottle is a good thing, but i can tell she isnt starving...ithink she is going to be a chub!!! she gets up about ever 2-3 hours at night and sometimes every hour! she does get a tummy ache sometimes she wants to eat a lot and eats too much sometimes. not sure if we need to switch forumla or not.
i cant believe that she is already 3 weeks old today! time is flying, in a bad way! work wil come too fast.

Rough weekend
So friday night I went home and got Bria (brent was ice fishing with some friends) we ate supper but Bria didnt eat much she has a horrible cough. We found out Paxton had bronchitis so I called the ER to see if they thought Bria might have it and if they thought we shoudl bring her in. Turns out bronchitis IS contagious but that the chances that they would give Bria anything at the doctors office were slim to none, so they just told us to watch her breathing for wheezing and to give her tylenol or motrin. YAH tell that to the 9.5 month pregnant lady. Anyway, we played and she went to bed horribly and slept horribly that night. Saturday we were planning on getting Brias 18 month pictures taken, doing some last minute baby shopping (and also try to walk this baby out) and then go out to eat for Jim and Linda's anniversary. Well none of that got to happen, it rained then froze then snowed on Saturday. so we thought it best to stay home. limbs were falling off trees from the weight of the ice!!! LUCKILY our cable worked all day except for the power going off a few times. I could about imagine how Brent woudl have been freaking if the tv didnt work for the game on Sunday!!! so we hung out, Bria took a horrible nap Saturday too. We made a whole chicken saturday night and hung out. Saturday bria slept a bit better but not tha tgreat. still coughing in the middle of the nigth soo hard to make her gag and wake up.
Sunday was better we decided to go grocery shopping. ALL of us. i didnt know how that woudl bode for my grocery budget....Our total was 107 something and with coupons it was 87.24, which means i saved 26% i was soo proud of myslef!! i am hoping that this stocks us up for awhile besides bread, milk produce etc. YAH!
after we went to lunch then home, bria finally took a good nap and I reorganized our pantries, they desperately needed it! and cleaned a bit. then we sat and watched the game, you all know how that turned out. then i tried to go to bed, then at 2am bria wakes up and thinks it is time to getup!! um nope. tried everythign to get her to go back to sleep nothing worked! finally i coudlnt sit in the chair anymore my back hurt too bad, so brent got up with her, needless to say he is home sick today with a stomach bug....bria is at daycare, probably crabby and i made it in to work even though the roads werent that great!
What a great monday huh?

hello!
wanted to update on some things!
One...back in November I ordered some things from Amazon. I got great deals!! I got Fridge phonics for Bria for christmas for $10.38 (you can find this for $20.00 or mor ein stores), I got the Fridge Farm set for $8.00 (about 15 or so in stores) for a bday present that hasnt happened yet and i got a 27 piece magnetic dress up doll for $10.17 (which i have seen at herbergers for about 15-20. I also got free shipping since it was over $25.00 grand total 28.55. so already i got some great deals. well they had a promotion that you would get a year of Parents magazine with your order, but you could opt out of it and instead get $9.97 back. Well I already get Parents magazine and I have found that i dont get many chances to read it already, so I sent in my rebate form to receive a check anyway. FOrgot about it for awhile, but just recently remembered it. WELL Friday i got it in th email! yep $9.97 cents! so that makes my original purchase $18.58! not bad for 3 high quality toys! tha tis 6.19 a piece! Now i jus tneed to decide what I want to do with my rebate...put it in savings, or Brias savings or just cash and spend it. I think I am leaning towards either putting it in my christmas/birthday present fund or Brias savings. Extra money is nice!!
I also received extra money lately from my swagbucks. Now i have told you about this before but SERIOUSLY you need to sign up under for swagbucks! why say no to free money??? sign up here.

new years we had josh and stacey and their son blake who just turned 1 over, we ordered pizza and watched the movie the hangover, they left at 9pm, made us feel old, so next year i think we are going to plan to get away without kids just to feel like we did something on new years! and maybe be up when the ball drops! haha.
otherwise work is crazy training in a new girl and trying to get my work done and work prepared for when i leave.
bria is good, stubborn...man! where does she get that from? she now loves to color and is obsessed with her barney movies! and elmo movies at daycare.
baby is looking good so far, and i need to get going on washing up clothes.
mom is coming over this weekend to help me with my first freezing cooking day! that shoudl be fun but stressful cooking all those meals! at lest i have someone to keep my company.

christmas
Well Saturday me and Brent and Bria went and tried to finish up our christmas shopping. it went fairly well. I took him with because it is getting harder to carry bria in and out of the car by myself with all these people and try to make it home in time for her nap. I am just not as quick as I once was. lol.
But now the only people left to buy for is Brent and I need to buy 2 gift cards. the gift cards were supposed to be done on Saturdya but I forgot. So still hav eto get those. But i am pretty impressed that that is all i have left.
ANd brent finally gave me a couple of ideas to get him so at least i have that. something to go by. I am hoping to maybe take a day off this week and finish him up. i don treally want to take a day off but there is only one weekend left and really? i want to be done! now i need to get wrapping, i have some wrapped but not all.

ahh finally on here again!
sorry guys havent posted in awhile. things seem soo crazy and i dont always remember to post here and since i dont often get comments sometimes i forget that people even read this. then am i just posting for myself?? anyway. whats new at the line household?? well lets see. Bria is a little stink pot still. haha, she still is being stubborn and isnt walking. she is soo afraid of falling, yet when she tries to climb on things she has no fear. her new things are saying Hi, Cool and nodding her head yes, thankfully she has not realized how to say no yet. she just ignores me if she doenst want to do something lol. She also is trying to show us how independent she is, she doesnt WANT to go to bed at night lately. ugh! I also think she is teething and maybe getting an ear infection. We took her to the doc yesterday and the doc said she saw something in there that COULD be the start of something, but result...no meds. so we wait and see and until then give her motrin and tylenol as needed.
the new baby...well. i am getting big and fast!! had to order 2 new pairs of dress pants the other day, which is way differnet then with bria. i was in a lot of my regular pants with her up until the end!! Anyway, i am 29 weeks now, so 10 weeks or so left. I am hoping that this VBAC goes well!!
Brent, well he got a 12 pointer at deer hunting rifle season and can only get one doe now, so he has been going mussle loading when possible. otherwise i keep him busy i guess. or try to, he also has been helping dave get his house started before winter, so he is always busy.
Thanksgiving was good, went to Jim and lindas on thursday, ate way too much of course. friday i hung out at home, brent was helping dave, fridya night went out for a 21st birthday, havent been to one of those in ages!! Saturday went shopping with linda, brandice and jade. got a few more christmas presents done. sunday we were supposed to go to kim an dreggies, but emma threw up the night before, and with bria not sleeping well we decided to not chance it. she ended up with a fever anyway that morning, and took a really long nap that we had to wake her up from....
oh i am going to post another post about my new things i have found that you guys can join!! stay tuned!
