Our new car

2007 suzuki xl7 luxury edition

Comes with a DVD player, Heated Seats, MP3 Player and hooks ups in the back for game systems. We didnt set out to get a luxury edition of a car , but that was what was on the car lot in our price range. I wanted something 2007 or higher and low milles on it. We couldn't pass it up. I always wanted to put a Dvd player in our other car for when Izabel was older anyway so it worked out great. My husband loves the remote start. When he get ready for work he starts the car and by the time he get out there its all nice and warm.

It sure has been a crazy few weeks. My glasses were broken in the wreck so I am weaning my spare glasses till I can go to the doctor to get a new pair. I've been fighting an infection. When the airbag hit my face it caused one of my teeth in my mouth to get infected. It didn't happen right away. Well It did but I didn't show signs of it. I had to have a Root cancel and a tooth fixed. Yeah for Insurance. With out medical and dental insurance we be in a world of trouble. I don't like going to the dentist but it was an emergency my face swelled up and I had to get a prescription to take the swelling down. So Friday I had the root canal and the dentist isn't done yet. That was just clean out the tooth and the root and add medicine to the root so it can heal.

Did I tell you guys that Travis hand is broken in 5 places. Well He is now in a cast and hates it. On monday he goes to the doctors again. His cast was put on while his hand was swollen so we are wondering if they are goign to give him a new one after they check his hand or wait. If it dosn't heal right in 2 more weeks he will have to have surgery. I just hope if does have to have surgery that he dosn't have to have any time off work.

I don't want him to have to fight an insurance company to pay for his time off work.

It bad enough that are inruance company had to pay our car out since it was totaled and they bill the other inruance company that hit us. They didn't want to give us the full value of the car. They said are car wanst worth 15k when our insruance company said it was.

So we have had one thing after another it been pretty bussy here.

Sad, when Izabel was born My sister n law got me a stroller car seat combo. Now today the insurance guy calls. Not my insurance guy, but the guy for the lady that ran into us. They said Since Izabel car seat was in a reck and though nothing happen to her or the seat we have to give it to the people who are holidng are car and get ride of it. I dont want to buy a new Car seat but I will for the safety of my baby. I didn't want to break up the set.

They think They will have to total out are car. I told my husband I don't want a car has to be another SUV. The police officer siad if it hadnt been for us being in an SUV my husband woiuld of been dead or hurt from the waste down.

So What kind of SUV do you drive? What do you think is the best and w hat should I look for?

From Good to bad.

I was so happy that it was christmas and I got to spend it with my Baby girl Izabel.. I couldnt wait for Travis to get home fromt he airport where he works. I figured he change, then I'd wake the baby up feed her and change her. Then after we load up the car with all the presents we would go to Grandmas house for christmas. Life dosn't always work the way you want it too. So, don't ask me how Izabel First christmas went.

We where on are way to Travis mother house after wook. You know he work at the airport so he dosn't get a holilday off unless it falls on one his days off. Anyway light was green so we were going north and a lady decied to go 50mph in a 30mph going east, ran the red light and hit us on the driver side and totaled Our car. We Spent Christmas in the Emergency room. Me and Izabel are ok. Travis Broke his right hand and has cut and bruises all over. Lucky Izabel is a baby and wont remember this, but it scared the living crap out of me. Travis had to break his door open to get out of the car. The airbags both went off. I was so scared, never been so scaredin my life. Wasnt for my life it was for Izabel life. Lucky Izabel sits on my side of the car not behind daddy seat. A 77 year old women was driving the other car. Her car is totaled also, the whole front end is gone. So What a christmas. So when people ask me how Izabel liked he first christmas this is all I can think ab0ut

ABC

On christmas Eve we let the kids open one present. So Izabel got to open her present form her Grandma and Grandpa. It was so cute I had to post a picture of it.The abc caterpilla is bigger then Izabel. I think it mesaured at 4 ft tall the length of her crib or something like that.

moving

Did I ever tell you that moving sucked. We been moving as much as we can each day. It not easy with a 10 1/2 month old baby and having to move around my husband work schedule. We never knew we collected so much stuff or should I say junk. We werent able to paint any the rooms but the kitchen and it still not finshed. I will post pictures later.

new house

Hello again.

Sorry havent posted lately. We been in the proccess of buying our first home. Now it not a big home. Just 3 bed 1 bath. But the lot it on is big enough that we can build a second bathroom or a dinning room. It will be ours. No more living in my inlaws second house.

Also. We will be 5 minutes from Travis work. Right now he is 30 minutes away and that burns alot of gas. When gas was expensive we were were paying 45-65 dollars every week and half.

Right now we signed all the paper work and the seller (bank owned) has excepted our offer. Since it a bank owned (VA HOme) we are waiting on Va to send the paper work to the bank so we can close. We wnted to close by Thanksgiving but that dosnt seem like it goign to happen unless we get a miracle monday or tuesday.

Long they dont want to close dec 15-19 cause we will be out of town. We been playing our trip for 6 months.

So Pray that we can close soon on our house. We are ready to go paint, clean popcorn off cleanings, get curtains and move in.

9 months check up

We Went to the doctors today for Izabel 9Th month Check up. Anyway it seems no matter what we do our doctor is called to the hospital. She great but always busy. Today she had to go in and do a blood transfusion for a baby. Baby was brought in 30 minutes for are appointment. So again we had to wait.

Izabel is up to 27 inches long and 15.` oz in weight now. She can semi crawl more of a roll and scoot but there a crawl kind of in there. She can sit up on her own now if she wants. She will also stand u p if holding on to mommy or daddy hands. My baby is growing up so fast.

She got two teeth on the bottom front comming though. I mean you can see the white of the teeth now. Her top teeth on the front look good too the doctor says. She say the gums is almost gone which means a tooth is ready to come in. Since Izabel likes to eat Mash potatoes and pizza crust. The doctor thinks that we should move her up to Gerber stage 3 foods. She still on the hypoallergenic formula still. It the best formula for her. She get about 7 oz ever 2-3 hours.

Oh yeah I forgot to tell you she got part 1 of her flue shot today. Since she so little she get half now and half next month.

We been fighting our insurance company they wont pay for the RSV shoot. They say we don't have the fun or the deductible even thought we got a 4k deductible. It crazy that they would Deny a child something that they think she needs. So lucky since she was born in Colorado she also go Medicaid as her secondary and the doctor going to push it though. Good bless the State for when your insurance company is stupid.

All in all I think she is doing good for starting out so small and wouldn't eat.

BEES

I know it not great to let kids watch tv. One day I had Izabel in one those Dougant lookign chairs where she can bounce up and down. She can stand up or sit. She has all these things on there to play with. Anyway The Bee Movie came on and she turned around and watch the whole things. If I try to turn the channel or if i try to turn the tv off while that movie is on she crys. I don't know what it is about Bee she likes, but she loves this movie. Anway My husband ran to Best Buy to help his sister pick out a lap top for school and work. He comes home with the Bee Movie. My daughter saw the cover and went crazy she was bouncing up an down and trying to grab the movie case. She wont sit though most movies she normaly get boards and want mommy or daddy to play with her or pick her up. At 9 months old she loves the Bee movie.
