Because I like to Prank Others!

OKAY, I COULDN'T RESIST!

Anyone who knows me well, they know I enjoy to cause some mischief here and there! Sometimes regardless of the consequences!

The other night, I had decided to play a prank on Mike!.. C'mon, it was a Friday night, and I hadn't got out of my apartment for a week!A little stiry crazy!So I decided to entertain myself!

... Mike had fallen asleep to the TV... AGAIN!!!... I was on the phone with a good friend of mine, and then the topic had come up about pranks. Then we joked on pranks to do on Mike. I decided I wanted to do one! So we came up with drawing something on his face... I had no suitable marker... Then we decided I should use paint! So, I had grabbed some black paint, and painted a dick on his forehead!!... When he woke up bit later, he had no idea. Then, I thought it would be more entertaining if I sent him out in public. I asked him to go grab some timmies. So he did... and was none the wiser ;) I waited at home.. and I heard someone in our hallway,laughing hard saying someone drew a dick on a guys face!HAHAHA! ... I totally thought Mike would have noticed by the time he got into his car! Then, I get a phone call from Mike.. he was very mad!! He was humiliated in front of a lot of people he said, as he was even talking to people normally. HAHA. Yeah, I still think it's funny!!! He is over it now, and I know in time he will laugh at it too.

The paint wasn't perminant either, so it wipped off no problem!! It was a harmless joke!!

I may do some more pranks in time!!! ;) Stay tuned!! haha!

PS. If he tries to get me back, I will just get him back worse! I always get the last laugh!ALWAYS!haha! ;)

How Things are With Me Right Now

My life has become more busy recently, since I have begun school... I am doing online courses, as this is much more convenient for me, but doesn't mean it is an easier route! I am currently taking 'Health for Life',and so far it is going well. It is for one semester only. Then I am taking two courses next semester. They are Business Management Fundementals and Enviornmental Geography. I am trying my best, and have found I have always got better grades in an online course rather than the traditional way, in class..

Balancing all my responsibilities and priorities can become a tad overwhelming some days.With Layla,chores,pets,school,and social life.So far I am handling it quite well.Layla makes things 'easy' going most of the time.Although, the past week, I had an awful cold, so it was quite stressful... Luckily, Layla is still perfectly healthy, and didnt catch my cold!I tried my best to prevent her getting sick.

This evening,as I folded and organized Layla's laundry, I had to put all of her newborn clothes into a seperate drawer. As she no longer fits them! It just made me sad in a way, looking at how tiny she was, and just how fast she is growing and changing. When people ask me how old she is, I say 3 months!But next week she will be 4 months!At the same time, it is amazing seeing her grow and the new abilities and skills she gains each week. One of my favourite things to do with Layla is giving her a bath!I also love to sing to her, read her stories and take her out and about!

Today, Mike and I just had a very laid back day. Stayed in our PJ's all day!We just watched TV,played video games,and I started a wrestling,play fight match with him!I dont remember the last time we had done that.For some reason, I felt young again.. HA,yeah,I know,I am only 20 years old,and here I am saying stuff like that.. Well, with the way my life has been, I had to grow up fast, and have felt like an adult for quite a few years. Responsibilities do that to you I guess.

I hope tomorrow I will finally see Cinnamon and Laudie.It has been quite a while the last I had seen them, since I was too sick. .. :(

There is quite the drama on our floor in the apartment!But I will leave details of that for next blog post for later! ;)

Another update on whats up with me!

our little family!

Things are going really well at our new place!We really like it!

Mike has been playing the guitar more too.I set out his guitars as display,and he now plays finally!Been a long while since he had,and enjoyed doing so.

Layla is growing ever so fast.She is really enjoying me reading books to her, and she's starting to learn how to hold onto her toys and almost play with them.She can roll on her side and back again.She prefers sleeping on her side too.It is just the cutest thing seeing her sleep so peacefully in her crib.She now sleeps in her own room,and sleeps a full night!We almost miss how she would sleep beside us the occasional night, but we have to get her used to sleeping on her own,and she is already doing well on it.Dont seem to phase her actually!

Barley and Nikki and Kittie all seem to be fitting in right at home here too.They are all very content.At first had some issues with Barley wanting to mark his territory!But seems to be fine now!Was very gross,and I had to clean the carpet many times with variety of cleaners!The smell is out now finally!

I am now close enough to get groceries on my own time, while Mike is at work. So that is a plus.

Been feeling really good with life in general. I see my horses more often now, and they are doing much better. I love going out to see them, spend time grooming and chatting with friends there!

Riding just takes all stress out of me. Always puts me in a good mood, and makes my day.

Hopefully I will see the horses again tomorrow :)

Just a little note on what's up!

Yesterday was so hot outside!So me and my sisters went swimming!Sure was refreshing!The pool was warm too.I decided to let Layla try going in the pool!!It was so exciting having her do something for the very first time :) She did great.I didnt dunk her head under the water,as shes still a bit young for that.

Mikes been working hard at work lately, laying bricks and whatnot.Which sucks a lot,as it's one of the hottest weeks of the summer!And we have a busy night to pack the rest of our things,as we are moving tomorrow!!AHH!!..

Im very excited to move!Although,we will partially miss this house... lots of memories. And Mike grew up here!! But it's nice to start out fresh, have our very own place. Decorate it the way we'd like,paint the walls colours we like.Make it OUR home. :) I actually will enjoy not having stairs!Everything on the same floor!Yup,I am lazy,mostly in the summer time,as I cant handle hot weather very well!

I should probably get back to packing now... have to try and get as much as I can done during the day.

Just a day out and about...

I took the bus to the mall today,and printed out some pictures, as I was going to do some scrapbooking.Something I had never done before! As I was at the check out,I seen my mom walk by,really fast,and down an aisle,and then my sister said hi to me quickly and said that my mom dont want to keep stuff from dad,so shes not talking to me at all.Well,that hurt and I found to be quite rediculous!The least she could do is wave at her daughter... Never thought my own mother could just turn her back on me,and not even care she has a grand daughter.But whatever, that's her choice, I just won't be going up to say hello to her anymore if I ever see her out in public. A good mother,always loves and cares for her children,regardless of a minor mistake they've made!!I think it just bothers me more,because I had a good relationship with my mom... my sisters never had too strong of one with her,so it don't upset them as much as it does to me. So,after I left the mall,I cried a bit on my walk to my friend's house... she comforted me..and then,I looked at Layla,and she was smiling a lot,so that just cheered me up instantly.
Then we started to scrapbook!So I have just become a fan of scrapbooking!It's fun!So far I'm making one of Layla,and then of our wedding. I also put some pictures into frames!FINALLY!I had been wanting to do that for so long already.haha.
Not much else happened today other than that...

Love Life.

My heart melts on how I see Layla growing so fast.She will already be 3 months old next week.I soak up every moment I have with her being this small!I remember when she just came out of me and was in my arms.I remember every moment when she had come into this world.From the first ultra sound,the first heart beat and kick,and the labour.I won't ever forget the details of the day she was born.Was the day that had changed my life forever, but in a great way. Layla has been a blessing. Amazing on how I've known her for such a small amount of time,and just love her unconditionally!I almost cry when I see her sound asleep in her bed, as she smiles in her dreams,and looks so peaceful and warm. I think of how amazing it is,how Mike and I have created such a beautiful miracle.
It's funny,how the smallest and simplest things can amaze us,on things she does.But it is all new to her!She started to attempt lifting her head about 5 or 6 weeks old!And her eye sight had improved after 1 month. She now recognizes us,and our voices and will turn her head to watch where we are. She loves looking at things,exploring,and probably drives her crazy how she just dont know how to get anywhere on her own.The best part,is seeing her smile,and make coo sounds!Her favourite toy is her colourful purple elephant!And she cannot stand any little amount of a dirty diaper,which I think could be a good thing as she may be easier to potty train!I haven't had too many difficult times with her YET!She's had a few fussy days,where she was awfully crampy, but we found that a nice warm bath really soothes her when shes not feeling the greatest.
She also really likes Barley,when his hair tickles her against her cheek!
I try and take a lot of pictures and videos,as I know I love looking back on pictures and videos when from my younger days.She also really loves going for walks,well,being pushed in a stroller anyway!I noticed she likes to be outside,and car rides make her fall asleep almost instantly!
Mike ''jokes'' about having another baby to me.I just know we aren't ready anytime soon on another baby,and if something like that happened,it definitly wouldnt have been planned like Layla was!
Yes,we planned to have Layla.At that point of our lives,we felt we were ready,that we were set.We had a mortgage,a home,that we thought would last forever,I had my career going,and he was working full time.Things were going quite well at that point. But unfortunately,things changed,on a variety of circumstances we knew we had to give up the farm.I was upset at the time,as I felt maybe having a baby wasn't such a good idea anymore.That we were now starting all over again,and would be hard to support a baby when I couldn't work for a while.But,things have been going better than I thought,and I do not regret having Layla.Not one piece of me.I feel she's probably one of the best thing's that could have happened to Mike and I. Layla is what keeps me going in life, she makes me happy and just makes me stronger everyday. I fight through any bumps along the road of life!

All I have to say is that I love being a housewife, and a mother. I love my life,even through the toughest times,Im lucky to have the ones I do in my life.

... bored..

Not much going on right now.We didnt do a whole lot this weekend.. .so I guess this could be a bit of a dull blog,but maybe that's because I'm having a dull evening,had nothing else to do.
Spent a lot of my time at the mall, just browsing around.Then we went to the apartment we will be moving into next month.Just wanted to get measurements of the unit and other information.
We will need quite a handful of things when we move to our new place.Floor lamps,shower curtain,toilet scrub,blinds,dinning table,coffee table,vaccum and some decorative would be nice,such as plants. Apartment life will be different from what I'm used to.. As Ive always had a big backyard,lived in a house.But I really dont think this will bother me.Plus,this apartment has a big court yard. It's a decent area in Kitchener, and I dont think itd get much better.It has everything we are looking for!!

AWE. Cant believe how much my baby Layla is growing. She is just so adorable, and we notice changes and her development every week!She now smiles a lot,and coo's,and seems to be able to see further. She now likes the soother!At first she didnt like it,she would gag from it.

On another note, I hope mike and i will be able to go on a honey moon next winter!Once Layla is a year old. Im not sure where we can go, or where we would want to go. We both were thinking of taking a road trip to California!Hollywood would be awesome!Im more affraid of planes,and a road trip would be cool.My motion sickness has been getting better lately.
Id like to visit Hollywood,Las Vegas,and New York at some point of my life. Yup, all the big busy citys!!I dont trust tropical island places, due to food and liquids I just couldnt trust.

Well,I dont have much else to say!! .... =P
