AJ stays the night with his grandparents every Friday night & Friday nights are me & the hubby's date night...I am feeling some better..not sure what we will get into tonight..hopefully go grab a bite to eat somewhere get outta this house b4 I go stir crazy..I haven't left this house since Tuesday.All I have done is watch TV & movies,eaten soup,popsicles & drank tea out the wazoo! I brought Tiger inside & held her..been blogging & doing Facebook to pass away the time.Today I actually felt like going around the house picking up & straightening & putting things that were out of place back where they go.I just put some eggrolls in the oven to bake & am planning to dip them in duck sauce..soo yummy! AJ's friend,JD has invited him to a Halloween party Saturday evening..& then we plan to go see my nephew in Anderson,SC...:) Sunday is church it will be great to just be able to get out of this house...I def have cabin fever don't get me wrong I'm a home body but just to know I can't get out & go anywhere drives me bonkers! LOL! Hope u all have a blast this weekend! Love & Prayersr!

The Future Is Coming!!

Me in our pool..:)
Our House

My SUV-(Isuzu Rodeo)
 When I was 13 I wrote a paper in my writing class that went something like this:Ten years from now I will go to college majoring in Nursing.I will try to find cures for diabetes,cancer & heart disease.With the money I will make I will buy a fancy car & have a chauffeur.I will live in a big mansion that has a huge pool.Hmmm..taking life as it is is hard sometimes.Because it is never how we see it at age 13.After all that dreaming of being a nurse I'm a stay at home mom & I'm married.I have a good life.I don't live in a mansion but I do live in a nice house & we do have a pool.I don't drive a fancy car but I do drive a SUV.I have not been the perfect parent or the perfect wife but my son loves me & I've been married to the same man for 11 yrs.I think all that God asks us to do is too accept where we are at this moment,on this day,at this time & at this place.So I take my life as it is & I'm very grateful.

New Baby In The House

AJ is 9 now..he loves to ride his scooter..:)
I had my first baby in 2002..Alan James "AJ" Cain.I was a new mom & scared to death.He was due July 1,2002 but God had other plans.I went to the Dr for a checkup on June 11th & because my blood pressure was thru the roof & I was soo swollen he did bloodwork & discovered I had "Toxemia".I wondered why I waddled like a duck & had cartoon feet.I didn't have AJ's baby nursery finished yet but he admitted me to Athens Regional & did a C-Section..well @ 6:11pm on 6/11/2002 I met the second man of my dreams..the lil guy who for 9 months had been kicking my ribs so hard I thought he was training for the NFL.Well ready or not he was here weighing in @ 7lbs.1oz.20 inches long.I stayed in the hospital 2 days & then was discharged to go home.We stayed at my parents house the next few days.The first night AJ was a toy..we played with him until bedtime then put him a cute lil onesie on him & put him in his basinet & we all settled down for a long summers nap.At 2am that cuddly lil baby went off like a smoke alarm & all 4 of us-me,my hubby,my mom & my dad collided in the hallway,looking for the nearest exit..lol!! Now that cuddly lil baby is not a baby anymore..time passes by soo fast..AJ is now 9 yrs old & in 3rd grade.He is involved in sports & I must say he is a natural.He may be a lil boy now but he will always be my baby..:) Always cherish your lil ones & enjoy the time when they are little because in the blink of an eye they are grown & then they are gone off to start families of their own.Love & Prayers..:)

My lil Pooh bear,AJ
