September 16, 2011

Well today started out horrible, I had went to bed last night with a horrible migraine and woke up with the same one. Thankfully it went away. I am excited because Eric is off tomorrow and we are having a date night and we are going to the derby tomorrow I cant wait. I love our date nights we dont get them very often. So they are great when we get to have them.
We got the paperwork in the mail today to order Lainey's headstone. it is going to be so pretty it has an angel and rose and it has her name and Infant Daughter of Eric and Amanda and it has Born Sleeping August 2, 2011 and has Our Precious Angel on it. Its gonna cost $364.00 which was alot less then I expected. I cant wait to see it in person!
Mom ordered my Angel necklace that has her birthstone in it, it should be in by the first and I'll take a picture and upload it so yall can see, I cant wait to see it, and wear it. It matches my Mother's Ring she got me too.
I have not heard from NILMDTS or Mamie's Poppy Plates and I wish I would because I am ready to see them. My pictures and my Memorial Plate with her footprints on it.
I made Lainey's Shadow Box the other day, it is hanging in our room but will go in the living room once it gets painted. It is so pretty I love it. It has her outfit and blanket from the hospital in it and a lock of her hair and her Lainey onesie that Catherine got her and her Hair bows that Andi and Nicole got her and her Harley outfit that PawPaw bought her. and on top is a photo frame with several photos in it and her rubber ducky from her baby shower cake and her eeyore i bought her. Also it has one of every flower from her grave in it, and her Obituary from the funeral home. it turned out so good. I will upload photos later of it.
Well I guess I am fixen to head to bed so I can be rested for my date night tomorrow. Goodnight all.

Some People

Ok so I am pregnent and my hormones are outta control and people tend to aggravate me easier than usual. So here I go on my soap box agian. GUYS IF YOU GET A GIRL PREGNANT STEP UP WE HAVE ENOUGH DEAD BEAT DADS IN THIS COUNTRY WITHOUT THE YOUNGER GENERATION FOLLOWING ON THAT PATH!!!!!!! Now with that said I'm tired of our generation being stupid, i mean for real guys come on...birth control is free at health dept. and so are condoms, do we really want our 13/14 year olds raising kids, they can't drive yet or have jobs i mean really have ya'll checked out formula prices lately...I HAVE and its gonna suck when my baby gets here and real life begins, am i scared not really but I'm 26 years old if i would throw me into this situation when i was 13/14 i would have been scared outta my mind. I just found out my 16 year old niece is pregnant, for real. I honestly dont know anymore Parents do you even know where your kids are or who they are with and what they are doing at all??? God help us all.

Life as a mommy-to-be

Well, so it's been a while since i have posted. My life has recently threw me some curveballs...and that's an understatement. Me and my Fiance' finally set a wedding date for June 4, 2011 and told everyone and was so excited, but then on December 22, 2010 I found out I was pregnant, needless to say plans are changing. I'm still planning my wedding for June I am just now planning for a baby to be due in August. You could say my life is a tad bit hectic at the moment. So far I am very much so enjoying being pregnant I have not been miserable but a few days and my "morning" sickness is now pretty much not happening...SO NOT COMPLAINNING, but so far i am loving being pregnant. I have got to hear the baby's heartbeat and at the end of march I get to find out pink or blue, either way it will be a biker baby :-) I am so nervous about labor...ok nervous don't cut it I am terrified! But I think all first time moms are. I am a tad bit upset I dont get to ride this summer on the harley with my family but it will not mean I am staying at home, I'll be driving a car or truck behind the bikes and enjoying the fun when we get to the destination. I WILL NOT BE RIDING!!! I feel that it is to much of a risk, even though I know some mommy-to-bes have not stopped riding, I pray for them because anything could happen, but it is their choice no matter how ridiculous i believe they are for risking not only the mother's life but the unborn child's also. I have recently been "getting ready for baby" which means my animal population has downsized I have 4 dogs as of now and I am in the process of finding a home for one more. I love my animals but my house is barely big enough for the humans in it no less the dogs and a newborn to boot. I love these mommy-to-bes that EVERYTHING is a facebook moment, I threw up all day today, I feel horrible, I hate everyone around me...well honey as much as you hate us, we are not so fond of you either, with your bad gas and raging hormones...I have my own problems and honestly don't give a sh*t about yours :-)....oops i guess that was my hormones. but honestly why does people think everyone on facebook wants to know EVERY detail of every minute of your day, you are not the first woman to be pregnant and are not the only one at this point nor will you be the last one, so keep your moments to yourself because no one else cares. harsh yes...truth...yes I'm just brave enough to say it out loud and online :-). one more point before I go, if all you can say is the bad about your pregnancy please don't post it WE DON'T CARE!!! now that I'm off my soap box, I have a loving fiance' who is dealing very well with my pregnancy and everything that goes with it and I love him so much, Also I have a mother who is a rock, and mother-in-law and father-in-law who are awesome and friends who are my support, me and my baby are so blessed and I love everyone for it. More to come later, and yes ultrasound pics will be posted :-)

Dang computers!!

Ok so I plugged my iPhone up to my computer tonight and of course the computer glitches right in the middle of a new software update and completely erased my phone pictures and music and all..... OMG this is a disaster I am like OCD over my pictures and I was already in an uproar over my external hard drive not letting me get into it anymore it is wanting me to format !!!! That is so permanent and for not so computer literate people format means delete .... Now all this crap happened in like a ten minute period I truly think I'm going to hyperventilate ... Just breathe Amanda it's ok... Lol anyway so now I have decided to change operating systems and to plug my external hard drive up to another computer to make positive it's screwed then if it is I guess I will format and curl up in the fetal position and cry :-( because YEARS of pictures like 10 gb of pictures are lost forever... Sigh when I say it out loud I really do think I want to cry ok now back to my iPhone problem I got most of my stuff back but I'm missing the last month of pictures and stuff which is a lot better than taking me back to factory OMG I really would have a heart attack! Dang computers are more trouble than they are worth grrrrrrr so yeah I just needed to rant so here it be nite all!!

My Baby Boy

Ok as I mentioned earlier i have a pit bull. He is a 10 month old red nose red male and he is a sweet baby. You could not ask for a better dog besides his mom and dad. now you ask where are they? Well that brings up the purpose of this post. I have always believed that its not the breed's fault for a few bad seeds and stupid humans. Now with that said I am going to say this... At one point I had 7 Pit bulls and I loved every single one of them, and they all had their own personalities. You could see the mom and dad in all of them and they were wonderful. I had the mom and dad and 5 puppies. i sold one and she had a heat stroke in this horribly Hot weather (RIP Zodie) and then 2 of them died from unknown causes because they were inside except to potty (RIP Cracker and Lily) which just left me with Shea (momma) Buck (daddy) Maniack and E-or (brothers). In April I had to move and it changed everyone including my babies. Buck shea and maniack attacked my pyrenees for no reason. i blew it off as stress the first time because dogs feels when we are upset, but i couldnt blow off the second time, i managed to get them off him before they hurt him bad but there was no doubt that something bad happened to my 3 babies, now my guess is someone was feeding them gun powder or some kind of drugs but can I prove that no but in my heart I know that my dogs would have never done that if they didnt have help. Now I had to put down Buck Shea and Maniack because they were no longer my dogs their body was there but their soul was gone. I hated it because number one i felt as if i was playing god and punishing them for something not in their control but I knew I couldnt take a chance of the next attack being a human so I did what I thought had to be done. (RIP Buck, Shea, and Maniack) Now you ask well where was E-or during all of this...well in the dog house scared to death, I actually had to get him and seperate him from his family because they were trying to attack him too. Now with all this said do I blame my dogs for what happpen NO do i blame the breed and say they are dangerous NO if you came to my house right now you wouldnt be scared of my pit the first one you would be OMG scared shi**ess over would be Rollie Pollie he is my pyrenees I will post pictures to show you why...lol. Now I do believe just as in humans animals do have "bad seeds" and that once in a while you get a pup that is just born mean and aggressive now that was Maniack he was our Bully of the litter from day one. But just like in humans do we kill our "bad seeds" no we lock them in "prison" which in my opinion is nothing but a hotel with bars but if you go into some big cities you have that anyway...but my point is why punish a whole "race" when only a few are bad. Now I just wanted to let my opinion be known because these dogs can not speak for themselves so I will speak for them!! Love you E-or you will always be Momma's Baby Boy.

Animals

Ok so everyone asks me why I dont just start a kennel or animal shelter. Well that was my intentions at my old house where I had 4.7 acres to work with but now that I am in the city I cant I just dont have the room. But I am going to try doing good for as many as I can. Right now I have a small kitten I brought home from the park who needs a home Pic below. She is loveable and sweet and would love to spend the rest of her days in someone's lap being petted. she is great with other animals she wasnt even scared of my seven dogs lol. if you know anyone that would want her let me know by commenting on this post. Thanks, and btw her name is Harley because we brought her home with me holding her on the back of our harley and she did GREAT!!!

Harley

Just a little about me!

Ok well I am Amanda and I'm 25 years old. I have 7 dogs yes I said 7 one pitbull one Pyrenees/anitonian Shepard mix two minpin/pom/weenie mix two chihuahuas and one blue heeler/spitz mix. Yes people think I'm crazy but they are all my kids and I love everyone of them. I am engaged to a great guy named Eric an I have a wonderful mom named Carol. Thay are my life and I don't know what I would do without them. Ok now I grew up in a tiny town with a population of 272 yea it's tiny... I was the quiet girl in school I didn't do anything wild or crazy until junior and senior year and boy oh boy it got interesting but that's nothing compared to my life now... Ok now to explain I was married before and yes it was a mistake and I regret it but it is one of the things that makesme who I am now. After my divorce I turned a little wild going to biker rallies and all that comes with that lol and I met Eric and he had a bike and now I couldnt see us not having a bike. We currently have a 2002 Harley davidson sportster 883 it started as a 1200 but because of certain situations we had to put it back to stock 883. I love it but can't wait to get a bigger bike. I love to ride anywhere and anytime rain or shine (although I prefer shine). I have a few great friends ( you know who you are) and some awesome in-laws. As for right now my life is great I couldn't ask for anything better (at least today anyway but you know how that goes). Well until next time stay with the rubber down and the wind in your hair. Love Always, Amanda
