I was showing my "birthmark" to one of my classmates yesterday so I thought I would post it on the good ol' blog. These are my baby's actual birth footprints! I took the page of her baby book to the tattoo shop in Addison, TX. This is by far my most meaningful and most beautiful tattoo. My daughter is <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">Nataleigh</span> Nancy. Her name is derived from a combination of my middle name Leigh and her dead beat dad's name, Nathan. Nancy is after his mother who has passed. Which pissed off my mother; she wanted part of her name shoved in there. I told her she would have to die before that would ever be a possibility and that her name sucks. <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">Bonnita</span> Marie, a white lady! Come on now, seriously? Was her mother banging the gardener or what? <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">Lol</span>.

In that time frame I have put on 40 pounds! I gotta lose some weight, stat. You know like when you try to put yourself on a diet and all you can think about is what you can and can't eat? I obsess about it. My doctor won't write out a script for diet pills, damn her. I am eating cookies that I just got out of the vending machine as I blog this. It doesn't help that my boyfriend is a chef and I am a "good eater". He is really excited about me meeting his mother this summer. He said she will cook for me non-stop and love me because I am such a "good eater". But seriously, the Apocalypse could happen at any moment. If it all goes down I don't want to die not having eaten a big ass slice of carrot cake. I would like to think that Jesus will roll in with a pan of brownies or something. Surely in heaven I can eat gummy bears all day? Any suggestions for an appetite suppressant?Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14255523369506084470noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379774433760548557.post-1123258038759248562010-06-15T10:46:00.000-07:002010-06-15T10:46:50.153-07:00Any advice on airfare?I have a few places that I would like to fly to this summer when I get a moment. I am trying to go see my family, and meet my boyfriend's mother (yikes!) here in a few weeks. All of those travel sites suck. I have been trying to do Price Li<span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">ne</span> for the time frame that I want to go but I can't find anything that suites the time constraint between classes ending and starting. Would any of you guys know the best route for me to take to reach my destination?Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14255523369506084470noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379774433760548557.post-26116154274568210282010-06-15T09:28:00.000-07:002010-06-15T09:29:10.228-07:00The Great Flood of '10Yeah so yesterday was crazy right? All that rain....I was about to bust out my Bible and follow the instructions for constructing an ark! Like I had said a moment ago, my friend's car was submerged in the water and she sent a photo to news channel 9, nerd. The car is a <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">camero</span> to boot! You know that was down to drown. I stayed inside and off the streets yesterday. With my driving record it is best that I did. I scrubbed the bathtubs, cleaned like crazy, swept and mopped, and did laundry; clearly I stayed on the busy side.Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14255523369506084470noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379774433760548557.post-13962238992968290352010-06-15T09:08:00.000-07:002010-06-15T09:08:18.993-07:00Get me to the BlogAll day long I think about things I want to blog about.

I was convinced that I was about to die on Monday night. I started to run a fever. The lowest score that the thermometer rendered was 99.9 on Monday night, and the highest was 101.9, yesterday morning. My body and head ached severely. I knew I needed some sort of medical treatment. My boyfriend was sweet enough to take me to the doctor and fill out the paperwork while I lay dying on my Alice In Wonderland pillow, with my Happy Bunny Pajama pants, sporting my glasses. Not a pretty picture, more like a feverish, hot mess. So I am on the road to recovery, armed with antibiotics and <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">lidocaine</span> gargle stuff for my throat hole.

I have looked forward to this day, many years, for many reasons. One year in particular 4/20 fell on Easter Sunday. At 10:33 am the Easter Bunny delivered the best gift I have ever received, a 7 lbs. 5 oz., 18 and 1/2 inch "quacking" little girl made her way into the world. She immediately captured my heart! <br />This Tuesday, on 4/20, I will be taking cupcakes to her classmates at school. I can't believe she is turning 7, how time rushes past. I have cherished every moment of her development and I thank God for giving me such a blessing. Being a parent is amazing. For those of you who do not have children you will be shocked by the revelation that you could love one little person more than you have ever bargained to love anyone in your entire life.<br />The assigned readings this week were full of themes relating to life, love, memories, regrets, and death. I love how you can really put things in perspective after reading such engaging material.Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14255523369506084470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379774433760548557.post-25135070437019734842010-04-12T02:46:00.000-07:002010-04-12T02:51:03.005-07:00Texas StadiumTexas Stadium was blown up early Sunday morning, April 11, 2010.

I was anxious to participate in English Literature Since 1800 because I enjoy reading and writing. I am surprised that the class requires that I create a blog and eventually a web page! I am grateful for this requirement because I need to learn how to do more with computers.Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14255523369506084470noreply@blogger.com0
