HERE I GO! HERE I GO! HERE I GO AGAIN... GIRL'S WHAT'S MY WEAKNESS?...

CHRISTIAN! Hahaha.... thought I'd start this blog off with a little Salt-n-Pepa. Completely unrelated to this post.... not this post will have any direct topic to it. It's mostly going to be random thoughts, random events, and probably a few jokes mingled in there.

Let's see.... I have Scoliosis. GREEEAAATTT.... if you're curious as to what scoliosis is here are a few boring facts:
2% of women and .5% of men develop scoliosis.
80% of scoliosis develops in adolescence.
Some Symptoms Are:
shoulders are different heights (check)
appearance of raised or prominent hip (check)
rib cages are at different heights (check)

I knew that I had a little bit of a curvature to my spine, but since I am going to a physical therapist for my neck and shoulders, they have also decided that we need to work on this also. I'm a mess. But my physical therapy is going really well. They have really helped me with the pain in my shoulders and neck. It's still tight and tense but it's getting better. I have about 5 exercises that I have to work on while I'm at home. It hasn't been easy, but well worth it.

Ok... so let me vent for a minute with out anyone trying to punch me in the face the next time they see me. NONE OF MY SHORTS OR CAPRI'S FIT ME ANYMORE!! I know what you're thinking..."wah wah wah! Kristy's tiny so she doesn't deserve my sympathy." Well my wardrobe strongly disagrees with you. Nothing fits me. It's a bit frustrating.

We went to Crabtree Lake on Wednesday with a bunch of my sis-in-laws and their kids. The girls had a great time. Funny story: So Mia had to go potty and the only thing around us were 2 portapotty's. So we walked on over and opened the door. Mia looks and says, "That's nasty." So we go to the second and she promptly tells me she no longer has to go potty. So about 40 min later she comes up to me and says she went pee pee in her pants. Which she BARELY did (this kid has GREAT bladder control). So here's my solution. I took her to the car. Put one of Landen's size 4 diapers (yes! landen is a size 4... crazy!!) and told her to pee in the diaper and that I would throw it away. This is the part of the story where Christian asked me why I didn't make her pop a squat in the trees. And I reasoned with him by explaining that if she did that, I would be cleaning pee off her legs and shoes. This was much easier of a clean up. Anyways, so she pee's in the diaper and all is right in the world again. I'm actually very surprised that she went a long with it.

Later on that evening I found a tick on me. I was not pleased! I felt very violated. I told Mia later on that I found a "bugga bugga" on me. And she was like, "ohhhh just like me!" (I had found a tick on her several weeks earlier). We now have a new thing to bond over.

We have this old stuffed Dinosaur from when Christian was little. It's Little Foot from the Land Before Time. Anyways, this thing is pretty big. It's the same size as Landen. So needless to say, Landen is weary of said dinosaur. The other night we were reading Scriptures before bed and Landen was eyeing the dinosaur. So as he gets closer and closer I was curious to see what Landen would do if the L.F. started moving. So I made the dinosaur jerk towards Landen. Not a good idea. Landen FREAKED out and started crawling (and crying) as fast as he could to the door. Poor baby. He didn't even try and go for Christian or I. He just wanted out of that room as fast as he could. Landen is also starting to pull up. When he started doing this Christian called me and asked me if I'd seem Landen pull himself up yet. I haden't, so I told Christian to trip or push Landen down when he saw him do this. KIDDING KIDDING! I mean, I really DID tell Christian to do this, but I wasn't being serious. Come on people!

Kalea asked me the other day why I didn't do the grocery shopping. And I told her because Daddy does it. She then asked me if it was because I didn't know how to use the coupons. And just to end the interrogation I told her yes. So what does she do? She proceeds to cut out squares of paper and asks me how to spell banana, yogurt, apples, lemons, cereal, etc. Later on she brings me 12 little homemade coupons and told me that I could use these coupons at the store (if I wanted to). What a sweet little girl.

Ok... I think that's it. If I think of more... I'll let you know.

PEACE LOVE AND CHICKEN GREASE
