Fighting

No, not me. :)

My favorite UFC fighter Randy Couture is defending his title tonight and I have been banned from watching the fight until Rob gets home to watch it with me. He can watch it over in UAE for free, but is waiting too. I guess that is sweet...but I SO want to watch it!!

Rob had his very first MMA fight last Wednesday. I didn't even get to be there for it. Ahh well. Anyway, I guess the guy he fought was a really good wrestler..shot in to take him down. Rob brought the guy's face into his knee. Faces don't usually like that very much! The guy was knocked out after 24 seconds. He fights again on the 3rd. Hopefully this next fight lasts long enough for his friend to get the video camera on! Since this is done on the base, they fight in a ring and I guess they have to wear pads. They also can't use elbows.
I've seen him train, but there isn't full force hitting during training. I think if I were able to watch him fight, this would be the way to go. Padded up and no elbows!

Mimi is asleep. So now I need to go find a distraction.

Getting Creative

http://www.cafepress.com/mommysbabies


So I decided to make my very own CafePress store. I just started it today. I only have gender neutral and girl so far. After you click on the link you will understand what I am talking about. Hopefully I will be adding baby boy soon though. The artwork is mine. When Rob gets home we are going to open a couple others with our photography. I'll put up those links when the time comes. :)

Baby Pics, Football and Birthdays

I have been trying to add a bunch of older pics to my MySpace album. I finally sat down and figured out how to use my dad's fax/scanner to scan pictures directly to my camera memory card. As soon as that happened I immediately gathered stacks of photos to scan! Most of my old pictures of the kids got destroyed in the hurricane but luckily Dennis and Sarah have a bunch of the copies. And since he happens to live next door.....
Well, its really hard to choose pics of your babies so I ended up with a PILE of pics to scan! One of these days coming up I will start scanning again. Unfortunately we can't seem to find many of Justice as a baby....a million of Chandler....but I have quite a few at my house in NJ so I may have to wait until I come back to add more of her. Come to think of it, I might have stolen all of the baby pics of Justice and thats why we can't find them! LOL

Its been hot here so I took the baby swimming for a little bit yesterday. She holds on for dear life, yet squeals "Weeeeee!" It's too cute. It's not nearly as hot as where Rob is though. He sent me a picture of the outside thermometer. 130 degrees!! He is going to be a popsicle when he gets home.

The boys started football last week. So far they seem to like it. The hitting hasn't started yet though and they aren't practicing in their full gear yet either. Ugh, just thinking about how hot that is going to be makes my stomach turn!

Justice...uh...yeah...she signed up for cheerleading. MUCH to my chagrin! I hope this is just a phase. Please lord, let it be a phase!! She really wanted to do it though and her daddy never could tell her no. It's cute when you're 6 I suppose. And she did look pretty adorable in the uniform. I'll take pics when the real ones come in. She is cheering for Griffen's team, and boy was she mad! We asked her, "Don't you want to cheer for your brother?" She crossed her arms and said, "No! I want to cheer for MYSELF!" Yeah, she doesn't quite get it yet.

Nothing else is really going on. Just hanging out with Sarah during the days. Well me, Mimi, Sarah and Avrie. :)
Mimi is toddling all over the house now and is saying more and more words every day. Avrie taught her "NO!" And the only time you hear her say it is to Avrie, when Avrie is trying to take away whatever it is that Mimi has at the time.

Chandler's 10th birthday is coming up next month so Sarah and I are trying to plan that too. I can't believe my baby is going to be 10! I feel so old! lol

Aight, I'm tired. Mimi woke up at 3:30 am once again last night. Ugh. So I am pretty much counting on being awake around that time again tonight. Therefore I must try and sleep!

The First One

I've been bored with my parents always gone and the kids being in school now so I decided to start playing around with blogs. I am going to try to start using this format to blog from now on and I'll just post the link to my MySpace blog when I write.

Obviously the title of my blog stems from the fact that I pretty much live out of my suitcase. Travelling back and forth from NJ to MS.

That might change in a few months though. We'll see...

Anyway, my butt is numb from sitting in this computer chair for so long. Time for a change of scenery!

Later!
