Blast from my past


Yeah, so this is a old old picture. I was going through my old old pictures on our old old computer and came upon my "i'm pregnant" file. I have baby on the brain. It's a serious condition, I know. Thought I would post a little pic. I also wrote in a journal almost daily during my pregnancy. I came across some days I wanted to share...
August 28, 2004 Saturday ( 6 wks 1 day)
Sick, not fun. Throwing up bile in the morning. Nothing beats that. Tasty!
August 29, 2004 Sunday (6 wks 2 days)
Sick, not fun...repeat Saturday. I thought I would feel up to going to John's race today. But our little baby had other plans. I stayed home by myself. No one was near me. I was all alone. Maybe I could have used that depression phamplet I was given. Just kidding.
August 30, 2004 Monday (6 wks 3 days)
I'm beginning to think these are my worst couple of days. I'm not going to work today because I'm doing the "morning sickness princess" thing I do so well. Tomorrow is my first OB appointment (for reals this time) and I'm hoping I can make it.

April 3, 2005 (37 weeks 2 days)
Okay I'mm feeling pre labor contractions. There not bad at all, but I have been having them all day today. Tyler is coming early I know it. I'm getting my bag packed tonight! John might think I'm crazy for saying that, but I know my body......Could I be in Early labor? Or could it be another week or two before D day? I'm calling Dr. Bryan's office tomorrow, or should I call L&D tomorrow? I don't want to go in than get sent home. I'm not saying I'm gonna deliver tonight, but if these contraction feelings keep coming like they are (here's one right now) and if they get more intense in the middle of the night, I wonder. I realy want him to come out when he's due so I don't have to go back to work so soon. Because my disabilty post partum starts the day Tyler is born. But then I do want him here now. John wants him here now too. Well....we'll see!
April 4, 2005 (37 weeks 3 days)10:00AM
(Heading to the hospital because Jaime is having frequent contractions and they are lasting about 1 min to 1 min and 30 seconds). I am really excitied that today might be the day I finally get to see my boy! -john
April 4th, 2005 11:00PM
Well, today was the day indeed. Jaime did wonderful throughout her labor. I will let her explain more when she gets home. Yes, she is at the hospital right now and I just arrived back home. We decided it would be best for us both to get a good night sleep. I feel bad leaving her there all alone but I know she is in good hands with the nurses who are watching her. Tyler was born around 6:15pm and he is beautiful! The most pride I have ever felt in my life came when I first saw him. I cant even try to explain how happy I feel. He is healthy and cute, weighing in at a whopping 7.3 pounds and 19" long. Blue eyes and brownish reddish hair, which later will turn more straweberry blonde, like mine. Anyway, jaime will have more to write when she gets home. I am starting to tear-up just writing this, so I think I will stop now. God is continuing to bless me with his wonderful miracles.
G-night, love you Tyler!


So there I have it...you may wonder what has brought all this up...I look at Tyler and wonder "where the time has gone" Seriously though...I saw a pair of "2T" size PJ's and think those are huge they will be so big on my boy. Nope, they fit perfectly. It's sad. I look in pictures and he is so big. Where is my boo-boo bear at? I want another one.

Christmas in the city...ring a ding...

I'm back...I have been busy, tired, lazy, I hate my camera, working, mom-ing, wife-ing, not cooking, some cleaning...but I haven't been blogging and that's for sure. I'm still frusturated with the link love on my behalf. I don't know how to display it. But thank God Burgundy has a blog like mine and J rocka can come to my rescue when he gets time from his hectic life to help a sista out.

Anyhoo, we all went to my mom's Christmas party at Teen Challenge on monday night and here are some pictures. She was all into it, because all of us were there. She was beaming with pride and joy. Like she should be, we all dressed up (except for John) and I think we all clean up pretty well don't ya think?? "Say cheese!"

sick

Sick of sickness. My child has bronchitis. I have a cold. I'm also sick of heartless people. You know who you are out there. I'm sick of the unknown, not to be confused with being scared about it, just sick of it. "IT" has it's story, which soon I will blog about, I just don't think I'm ready to. So yeah this doesn't deserve a picture. Well, I guess I can take a picture of my used kleenex that's facing me right now. I'm home alone sick. I maybe worked oh about 13.5 hours this whole week...I usually work 21...just taking care of people around me that I love. Lucky I have a understanding boss. Today I am taking care of ME. Man when mom's are sick, we still have to function. Even if that means taking care of a sick child and staying up with him watching Curious George until he has calmed down to go night night. On the other hand when Dad's are sick...yeah on the other hand--I'll just leave it at that.

Good Morning Mommy!!


So I get to wake up to this lately. Wonderful I think. John has been out of town since saturday (sniffle sniffle) Tyler's hair is just like my sister Jennifer's hair in the morning. Well at least that's what my mom says about her when she was little and Jen agrees. I HAVE HAVE HAVE to brush it in the morning before he takes his 1st nap, because if I don't it will look like this and then it's just not a pretty site or sound in the Cram household. I have to bribe him with Superman gummies and Wiggles. Anyone have the same problem with your kiddo's hair, husband's hair, your hair, dogs fur??

Head, shoulders, knees and toes...knees and toes!


So I was at Panera Bread with my mom and sis (with the rest of riverside) and I was having tyler name his body parts to us. I asked, "where's your head?" he points to his head. "Where's your shoulders?" he points to his shoulders (looks like he's flexing...so cute) I ask, "Where's your eye's tyler?" He SAYS, "eyes"...I was shocked. Latley he has just been sprouting new words. He amazes me everyday. Of course if you were checking out Justin's blog a few months ago, you know tyler knows where his belly button is aka "bee-bo"! I have no clue what my life was like before tyler. Besides the sleeping in part! I love him.

Who wants to wear the shark costume???


Who wants to?
Does Batman (given by you know who...JRocka himself)
want to wear it?
Does mommy want to wear it? (I would but it doesn't fit, maybe before I had tyler)

Let's see if Tyler wants to wear it? (Afterall it is his costume)

Nope. Guess not. We will have to work on it. My child hates things that are covering his head. He feels trapped. Hmmm...I wonder how he felt in my womb. Poor kid. Here's a picture of him last halloween...trying to take it off...

Sharkoodle (insert JAWS theme music here)

So I dragged out Kali's custome from last year. She was unable to wear it last year due to some figure problems (we call it "winter weight") But I thought it was cute, don't you? Can you guess? Man eating shark!! Or is it man eating poodle in a shark costume? Or a wanna-be shark poodle eating a man? OR a man eating sharkoodle. Hmmm...call it what you want. Would you want her sleeping in your bed at night?

I have had it...


Okay this is my 3rd day blogging. I can't seem to figure out how to post my links to my page. I thought this was going to be super easy. So if you happen to see "Google Neww" and "Edit me" as one of my links. Excuse me, I'm still under construction. Casey was kind enough to give me some help. I thought I would be able to figure it out tonight, but no dice. I found the template, but when I insert the URL in the spot, it doesn't show up. I save it. Nothing. I refresh. Still nothing. I delete and start over. Nada. I have to be doing something wrong. Because I have NOTHING! So if anyone wants a link to Google news, come to my blog and I can take you there! So maybe I will see if my brother JUSTIN will help me...heh heh!

Thanks for the link love my brother from the same mother




I told my brother to get my link out there and he came through like glue. I also told him I would drop his name on my blog for a week if he did it (hmmm hidden agenda). Ouch. I think I dropped something, oh it was JUSTIN. HA! And yes I will be probably posting alot of pictures of my son and hubby. More so of my son!! But hey it's what I do when he is sleeping. So here's a little tease. My hubby John and I.
Tyler in the back seat chillin' and our dog, Kali. She may look like she's 90, but she is actually 3. And she has cost more than tyler so far!

Is this thing on?


So I'm here. After so many days and very long nights on myspace. I have ventured over to the dark side of blogging. I don't have much blogging friends. I feel like I just moved into a new neighborhood and I don't know anyone. I have a lot to catch you people up on...and a lot of photos to upload. So see me tomorrow!
