"Nobody Puts Baby In The Corner"

It's a sad evening. The word just hit the media that Patrick Swayze has lost the battle to Pancreatic Cancer at age 57. He was not only an amazing man, but all who knew him said he was a kind soul, and a husband we all strive to have.

He took on this horrible battle with full force, but the nasty disease has once again taken a life that was oh so precious to so many. I called my dad, because as a child I remember sitting in front of the TV and watching Dirty Dancing. I'll never forget when we got our VCR, Dad and I couldn't wait to record, "Dirty Dancing"! It's crazy the things you remember. We would sit and sing all the songs and once we watched it enough times, we were reciting the words along side them!

Thank You Mr. Swayze for the wonderful memories you gave to me. Thank You for "She's Like The Wind", a song that I can roll all the windows down in my car...turn the volume up, and once again revert back to my younger days when all I hoped for was a bad boy "Johnny" of my own.

R.I.P Mr. Swayze for your memory will live on through so many of your films, and for me...you'll always be my "Johnny Castle"!

Belly Button Be Gone!!!

Goose had her hernia surgery done last week.  I was a complete wreck.  I know it isn't invasive, however it's still your baby going under anesthesia.   We had to be at Children's at 1:30 for check in.  Goose had no idea what was going on.  She was just as happy s can be.  It was just Goose, myself and Daddy, Nana picked Bird up from school and was keeping we busy until we were home.   When they called us back she got all her vitals checked and was a champ.  We changed her into a gown and she got to play while I spoke with the nurse, anesthesiologist, and the surgeon.  When the nurse told me that they would most likely intubate her, tears just rolled down my face.  In my line of work...intubation is never good, it's a way to sustain life.  I know that in this case it's just a way to know for sure they don't stop breathing during the procedure. The Surgeon came by to see us before and let us know what would be happening.  We work...

Baby Bird turns 16

I'm still not sure how our first baby girls is 16!  I remember not only her birth story, but I remember loving being pregnant with her so much.  Except the heart burn, I could have done without that!   Beautiful Bird you have become such an awesome young lady.  One that I am blessed to be your Mama.  Your love of life truly shines through in any and all settings.  People are drawn to you for your huge heart and understanding ways.  You make friends easily, and teachers and coaches adore you for the hard worker you are, but mostly because you are a true team mate.   I love how close we are, and how close you are to your sisters.  The moments when we just get to hang out and talk life or not even talk at all and just enjoy each others company are some of my most favorite times.   I love when you get excited about things or when something really makes you laugh, I wish I could bottle that joy up and keep it forever.   We are ...
