I Apologize

Wow! Evidently I suck @ blogging. Or it could be I am a busy single mom... (probably the former) So whats new on our life? Well oct was great Kennedie was a monkey for halloween, don't worry i'll post pics soon. November went by too soon, next thing i know december and christmas is here. My tiny little baby is now almost 5 months old. She is 14 lbs, 25 1/2 inches long and perfect. She smiles at strangers in the stores, loves singing (she doesnt know the words yet) and loves to stand up holding your fingers. For christmas grandma and grandpa beach got her a excersaucer and she loves it! From santa she got some cute clothes and some fun toys! She is at a super fun age and i can't wait for more fun opportunities to learn from her! She rolls over and tries to crawl already. She can get her hands under her and almost her feet but doesn't quite know what to do next. its pretty cute to watch.

I am still living at the same apartments but upgraded to a 2 bedroom and got a roommate. His name is Darrell, he is my best friend and he rocks! He is a single dad with 2 kids that he has every week morning and every other weekend. He also works with me at t-mobile. We get along amazingly well and he is a neat freak. (for those of you who know me you know i'm def not) Natalie and Shellie moved down to st george in Oct so without Darrell it would have been quite lonely. Its nice to have a strictly platonic best friend who can be there for you when you need him.

I had my gallbladder removed on the 23rd and that was quite the experience. (painful that is) i spent christmas in a Loritab induced narcolpeptic state, falling asleep everywhere. But i am much happier with out the pain. I got gallstones 1 time before in Oct but it wasn't bad or urgent enough to have them removed. It was an outpatient procedure but i spent one night before it in the hosp because i couldn't keep anything down and was writhing in pain! MERRY CHRISTMAS! I started dating again but its a slow and cautious procedure. Mostly I don't want to spend any more time away from Kennie. I'm in no hurry and just know someone will come along who is amazing and deserving of me and kenn. I'm truly happy with most of my life and don't mind being single. I work too much and sleep too little and feel like the luckiest mom in the world. When that sweet baby cracks her smile, it makes me grateful to be her mommy.

Thank you sincerely to all of my friends and family for the love and support this year. Kennedie and I are blessed to have you. Such love is hard to find. I hope all of your Christmas's brought joy and laughter in this hard financial times and pray that the new year brings change and hope. I know this year has been hard for all but feel optimistic that things will get better. I love you and to those of you far away wish i could see you and catch up. Happy New Year!
