Sick Baby!!!

Well today we went to moms house and helped her with her garden! Christian slept till about 8am and I was not feeling good this morning, so we did not get over there until 12pm. We went out and bought her flowers for her pots, and then we went home to her house. Christian feel asleep on the way home, and when we pulled into the garage, he woke up! We went inside and ate some lunch, well, mom and I did, and Christian went to sleep! Mom and I went outside and and we started working! I pulled weeds and cut down trees. Boy am I tired! Christian woke up I guess screaming, (my mom went and got him) and he was in a bad mood after that for the rest of the afternoon. He did help my mom plant flowers and such, but he was whining and whimpering the whole time. We went home a little later, and he was worse than before. I just thought that he wanted to sit with me and snuggle, but then I felt his little body, and felt that he was REALLY warm. HOT! poor kid. I took his temp by ear, and it was 99.7*, then I took it under his arm, and it was 101.5*. Then I called Doug...Jory's uncle. I then took it rectal. He did NOT like that, but it is the most accurate, and it was 102.7*. I said OH MY GOSH!!!! I freaked out!!! Doug told me to take it, his temp two hours later, and now it is about two hours later and his temp has gone down with the help of the Tylenol. Thank God!!! I did not want to take him to the hospital tonight! Poor guy is so tired! Doug thinks that he might have an ear infection. I am going to take him to the doctor tomorrow! Anyway, that is all I have for now! I will post pictures of my flower pots later! It is too dark to take pictures of them!

My Big Boy Bed!!!

We finally did it! We put Christian in a "Big Boy Bed"! He is in a real big boy bed too, he is sleeping in a queen size futon! He looks so small in it! LOL!! We decided to put him in that bed, because we did not want to have to by a toddler size bed and then in a year turn around and buy him a twin or a full size bed. This is a really nice futon...not your college dorm room futon. It has the top of the line mattress and heavy wooden frame. Jory bought it when he moved into his apartment with his friend Jay, before we got married. It is really comfy. To be honest I was really nervous about putting him in this bed, I was really worried about his nap times. I was worried that he would not take a nap. Thank God that is not the case. He loves his new bed and he does take his naps. Funny story...I put him down for a nap the other day and I told him to lay down and go ni-nite and then I walked out and closed the door. I did not hear him for a bit, so I thought good he went right to sleep. Boy was I wrong...I heard him a little while later, playing with his tool bench in his room. I laughed and went on with my laundry. I brought up a load to fold in my room and so I thought that I would look in and see if he was still playing. When I opened the door I saw him sprawled out on his bed asleep! He must have gotten tired and climbed back up on his bed and went to sleep. He was so cute!

Everything has been going well with the bed. For the first few nights he fell out of it and got a little scarred and disoriented, so I had to go in a lay with him. That is another bonus about the queen size bed. I can lay in there with him if he needs it. Other than that, all is good in that department!

This morning I watched my nephew, Chase for a few hours. The boys LOVE playing together. It was so funny, Jenny brought us breakfast this morning, and Christian loved his pancakes. Chase however did not like his. He would try a bite and spit it out! LOL Christian then took that time to eat Chase's too! My son is a PIG!!!!! So after they ate...well Christian ate, I put in a baby Einstein movie, and they both climbed into Jory's chair! They were so cute. They sat there for the entire movie! Without hitting one another! AMAZING!! Christian is the real bully, at least he is when he is in his own domain. He sometimes does not like it when Chase has a toy that he wants! We are working on the sharing thing. He does really good in the Nursery at church, as far as sharing goes. Maybe it is because he knows his cousin and maybe it is the fact that it is own toys and he is a little more protective of them. Who knows! Anyways....It was a fun morning! Christian is now in bed and dinner for Jory and I, is almost ready. I know It is late to be eating dinner...8:30pm and it is weird that Christian is not eating with us, but he was just too tired! Bless his heart, he played hard today. So here are a few pictures of the bugger butt! Enjoy!

Christians New Wheels!

HI!!!!!

So sorry it has been over a week since my last post!!! Not naming any names, but I have been bugged! LOL

So we went to Meg and Drew's house on Sunday for her birthday. She and Drew had the fam. out for hamburgers and such! It was really yummy. The boys went out side and I went to look for the cat. He (Niko) was hiding under the car in the garage. I looked over by Drew's car and saw that they had a play house and this little tykes car. The people who lived there before them left them in the yard. I said to Drew..."can I have them?" He said that he was trying to get rid of them for a long time! LOL I forgot about them, otherwise I would have taken them a while ago! So anyways, We don't have the play house, but we have the car! Christian LOVES it! It is easer to drive in the grass than his little John Deere tractor. It is so fun to see him play outside and learn and discover the trees and the plants! He is just like his daddy in that way...loves being outside!

I have been so busy this week! First off I am sick! I have allergies that turned into a sinus infection and now a cough! AHHHH I hate allergies! I emailed Jory's uncle Doug earlier this week to see what the symptoms of Strep throat. My throat hurt so bad on Sunday and Monday. I had no voice and could barely swallow! Then Tues it started feeling better, so I don't think that it was Strep.

So now going into my week....Our church revival services started on Sunday, since I am the nursery director, I had to coordinate volunteers to work the services. They went till Wednesday. I had to be there to open up the doors and get my workers settled. We only had two kids each night, but the service went long EVERY night! I didn't end up leaving the church until like 9pm each night! Tonight is the ONLY night that I will be home this week. Our children's musical is this weekend too. Last night was our regular KCC rehearsal. Friday night is our dress rehearsal. 5:30-8:30pm . Then on Saturday afternoon, we have our first performance. It is at 3pm. I think that the kids are getting really excited! The musical is "The Rock Slinger and His Greatest Hit!" It is the story about David and Goliath. On Sunday....The kids sing in the service and then that night at 6pm for the final performance. We are almost done! It just has been a busy week.

So there you have it! Just another day in the life of Dyan!

Mom your in my way!! Honk Honk!

Just too funny!!!


I could not resist! I had to post this picture!

And this story is SOOOOO funny, be prepared to laugh you arse off!

One day I met a sweet gentleman and fell in love. When it became apparent that we would marry, I made the supreme sacrifice and gave up beans.

Some months later, on my birthday, my car broke down on the way home from work. Since I lived in the country side I called my husband and told him that I would be late because I had to walk home. On my way, I passed by a small diner and the odor of baked beans was more than I could stand. With miles to walk, I figured that I would walk off any ill effects by the time I reached home, so I stopped at the diner and before I knew it, I had consumed three large orders of baked beans. All the way home, I made sure that I released all the gas.

Upon my arrival, my husband seemed excited to see me and exclaimed delightedly: 'Darling I have a surprise for dinner tonight.'

He then blindfolded me and led me to my chair at the dinner table. I took a seat and just as he was about to remove my blindfold, the telephone rang. He made me promise not to touch the blindfold until he returned and went to answer the call.

The baked beans I had consumed were still affecting me and the pressure was becoming most unbearable, so while my husband was out of the room I seized the opportunity, shifted my weight to one leg and let one go. It was not only loud, but it smelled like a fertilizer truck running over a skunk in front of a pulpwood mill. I took my napkin from my lap and fanned the air around me vigorously.

Then, shifting to the other cheek, I ripped off three more. The stink was worse than cooked cabbage.

Keeping my ears carefully tuned to the conversation in the other room, I went on like this for another few minutes.

The pleasure was indescribable. When eventually the telephone farewells signaled the end of my freedom, I quickly fanned the air a few more times with my napkin, placed it on my lap and folded my hands back on it feeling very relieved and pleased with myself.

My face must have been the picture of innocence when my husband returned, apologizing for taking so long. He asked me if I had peeked through the blindfold, and I assured him I had not.

At this point, he removed the blindfold, and twelve dinner guests seated around the table chorused: 'Happy Birthday!'

I fainted!!

Daddy ate my fingers!!


I was packing for my business trip and my three year old daughter was having a wonderful time playing on the bed. At one point she said,Daddy, look at this , and stuck out two of her fingers. Trying to keep her entertained, I reached out and stuck her tiny fingers in my mouth and said, 'Daddy's gonna eat your fingers,' pretending to eat them. I went back to packing, looked up again and my daughter was standing on the bed staring at her fingers with a devastated look on her face. I said, 'What's wrong, honey?' She replied, 'What happened to my booger?'

A Random Post!

Okay so I guess i should update! It has been over a week since I have! I have been getting pressure from someone...not naming names to update! So here it goes!

I will start out by telling you how much I love making meals ahead of time with my friends! It is so much fun! We just had our latest cooking session last Saturday. It was just Paula , Janell and I this time. Mel had a bunch of meals left and my sis Meg was going to join us but our really good friends going away party was that night, so I told her she better not miss that! So it was just the three of us! Life seems to go a lot better when you know what is for dinner! I think that we are becoming pros at this! Maybe we should open our own franchise of Social Suppers! Then we could make money and have our meals! Again we made 15 meals...they are all different this time, and two yummy desserts! Jory told me not to freeze those! Last time I forgot about the desserts! Jory did not get those till the end of all the meals! LOL So here are a few pics of the meals that we made!



Christian is SO funny! Well most of you know that I cut hair out of my house for friends and family...well Christian found my squirt bottle! He had a blast with it! Once he figured how to work it, he kept squirting himself in the face with it! The first time he did it he was like what just happened! then he laughed! I think that he went through a whole bottle of water! He was soaked to the bone! Here are a few pics from that night!



I love my mommy! Christian just loves the camera! he always want me to take pictures of him! He is NOT shy at all!



So anyways that is all for now! Got to go get my hair done!

I want to be like my Daddy!!!




The other day Christian was playing outside while Jory was cutting the grass! Of course I was out there keeping an eye on Christian while Jory was running the mower. Christian was so interested in what Jory was doing. When Jory turned away from Christian, Christian started yelling at him to get his attention! It was so cute! Christian loves everything about being outside! He is just like his daddy! Here are a few pictures!
