She's too much!

You give the girl some Cake and she goes all crazy on us. This is Layla J. doing an "Imagination Movers" impersonation! LOL!

Been about 12 years!

So haven't posted in FOREVER! So by now Layla is already 7 months! She can sit up by herself! She has 2 bottom teeth! And she is startin to get to the crawling stage (Uncle Bubba..be proud...shes an expert Army Crawler!) Last month she went for her shots and she weighed a WHOPPING 15 lbs 14 oz! Big baby girl! She is in DayCare now! Has a B.F.F.F! Her name is Makenzie and her birthday JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE 10/28/08! No wonder they are B.F.F.F's! But her B.F.F.F is leaving her tomorrow. But she will be ok...She will just have to play with Ana!

As for me...where to start! I had my interview for my extern today! WOOO! Im so excited! Im going to be working Monday, Wed, Thurs, Friday- 8.30 to 5 Tues- 8.30 to 12 and Saturday is 8.30-1. So things are really starting to get intense! Im almost done! I have EXACTLY 9 days until my extern! Im going CitiMed off of Little Rd...kinda like an Urgent Care place! I'll be doing mostly back office stuff THANK GOD! And...tomorrow is my birthday HOLLA! The big 19!! I feel like something big and exciting and GOOD is going to happen tomorrow! We shall see and I shall let you know!! Things aren't to great money-wise. I got screwed like a nail in a piece of wood. My "boss" is a major butt-head and screwed me over baaad! Whatta big meanie! See if I order anything from her! Im broke..mama is buying everything for Layla b/c I can't! Hopefully things are going to be better here soon!

Hi My name is Shreai....

And soon I will be your Medical Assistant! Well Mod 130 is over! We learned more about body systems and diseases. VERY VERY interesting! My overall grade in that class was a 93! So..again..I got President's List (which is my goal until I graduate!) SO far I am achieving that goal! Next is Mod 160 and we will be learning how to administer injections! HOW SCARY and EXCITING! What can I say..nothin but good stuff is happening! I'm officially stoppin breastfeeding. On Monday I start workin w/Angie (a friend of LaSha's) I'll basically be her Personal Assistant which ok for the pay Im gettin! $10/hour! I really don't wanna work..but it don't matter what I want..its what I HAVE to do. So Miss Layla starts daycare tomorrow = (. I'm gonna miss her like CRAZY! Next week my lil Layla will be 6months! She's gettin so big!!

Family Reunion = /

Ok so driving there was a pain my butt! LITERALLY!! My LEFT butt cheek hurt the whole way there and the whole way back! It was okay...wasn't as great as Glen Rose...nothing can top that one! = ]. Layla was a big hit! I'm surprised they didn't try to auction her off! She went easter egg hunting and did very good! She loved all her eggs very very much! And I loved the candies on the inside of the egg! She was most loved by Shelly's kids! They was aaaalll up in her grill the WHOLE time we were in the pavillion. BUT they managed to make her laugh which is more than what i can do! Overall...NEVER AGAIN! The next Family Reunion I'm going to better be in TEXAS! And more organized...Lorrie....host the next one again! = ]

Documentation Rules the Nation

Haven't posted in awhile so I SHALL! So here goes!

School is gettin pretty complicated. Sad to say that I am not going to be on President's list this time around = [. Believe me I am CRUSHED! Miss Layla Thomas is almost 5 months. actually this saturday she will be 5 months. HOLY COW...she's practically in college already she's gettin so big so fast! On april 1st I am going to start her on veggies! WOO. thats going to be pretty exciting. First carrots, green beans, peas, and then squash. then after she enjoys all of those we will slowly go to fruits. I don't want her to be picky like her mom (Its not good its not good at all! I can't even take a teeny tiny bite out of a piece of brocoli w/out gagging!) She is now able to roll from her back to her tummy! At first she was VERY slow at doing it but now as soon as you lay her on her back...you blink and she's already on her tummy. Her last dr. apt. she weighed 13 lbs. and 13 oz! In 2 weeks she has her check-up for her ears and then she has an ENDO. apt. So we will see how her medicine is doing for her. Hopefully they won't have to do anymore adjustments?!

(Oh and since I know YOU (you know who i'm talkin about) are going to read this let me just say one thing...

I get the feeling your embarassed b/c me and your son had a child w/out being married. well..true we did but we had a BEAUTIFUL baby girl. He is 19 years old now and can make decisions for himself. You gotta realize that he has a daughter and the choices he makes is for her. Yes, he is going to be staying every other weekend with me. Me and him and my mom already discussed that. Please let your son live his life w/out holding your hand. I understand you don't think it's right that he sleeps in the same house w/me since we're not married, but he wants to see what its like to wake up when his daughter wakes up. He wanted to experience what I experience and I let him. And NO I'm not going to marry him JUST because we have a child together. That is the wrong reason to get married. I need you and the rest of his family to please just stay out of the choices me and him make. FOR EXAMPLE, the money he gives me. His choice to give me that not mine! I even told him last friday he can give me how much he wants. His response? I'll never give you less that 70 but DEFFINATELY more than 70. And Layla's last name. Me and him discussed that WAAAY before Layla was even born. He said he wants Layla to have his last name but he understands my reasoning and he's okay with it. So ya'll should be okay with it too! Thank you!)

sorry for that brief interruption! anyways...gami stayed w/us this past weekend. It was pretty fun. He had fun w/Layla and Layla had fun w/him. She was pretty gassy and let him SMELL about it! = D

My poor Layla

Well...I had took Layla to the dr. for her 4 month shots. I mentioned that her ear is lookin a lil clogged with wax. To the point that I can't even see in her ear! (which is MEGA annoying!) So anyways...the Dr. checks in her ears and says, "I can't even see in her ear! I'm going to have to remove the wax." AND she does, AND Layla screams crazy loud. The dr. prescribes Ciprodex for her ears. Insert 4 drops BID (thats twice daily) in her (R) ear. Ok...I did...took her back to the dr. Monday (?) b/c now she has a nasty mucousy cough! The dr. checks her ears AGAIN and says "Not good baby girl! She has 2 ear infections now. I'm going to give her some antibiotics. She needs to take Amoxyl 3 ml BID (thats twice daily!!!) for 10 days." Ok...well first of all Layla showed NO signs whatsoever of her ear bothering her! She doesn't pull at her ears, wasn't ever and still isn't running fever, no fussing out of her norm.! The dr. said most likely she's had these ear infections from her Bronchiolitis! SAY WHAT NOW?! She was 2 months when she had that!!! The dr. also said Layla is a GREAT candidate for having to get tubes in her ears...especially since she's only 4 months old and having ear infections already!! = o! My poor poor Layla!
