Girl's New Room

Just thought I'd share a shot or two of the girls "new" room. Me and V put alot of hard work into it.......It's a shame not to show it off at least a little bit. Not that we haven't already gotten the payoff we wanted. The girls won't leave their bed for ANYTHING! They even get DRESSED there, lol. Nina even drew a picture of it in school and had bragged about it to all her freinds. Jessie says it's her favortie room-"it's the best room EVER! This is the best HOUSE EVER!" omg. was it worth it? yes, yes it was.

WTF

MY BOOBS WON'T INTO ANY OF MY BRAS ANYMORE. WTF. GODDAMMIT.
JUST THOUGHT I'D SHARE THAT WITH THE WHOLE FRICKIN WORLD.
FUCK.

Still Takin Bets

Soooooooooooo-I put a countdown timer on my page so everyone can just SEE when I'm due and stop asking. There ya go. Enjoy. And I DON'T know what it is yet. Everybody keeps assuming I do. And when I say I don't they're all like "oh-Do you not want to know?" And know this mockery is not directed at ant ONE person-EVERYBODY HAS DONE IT. EVERYONE. Which is why it is driving me so insane. Of course I want to know what it is. I am not by any means at a point in my life where I need to "suprise" myself. I've waited 5 long ass months-I'm ready to KNOW, dammit! I have shit to buy. I need to know which of Trins old clothes to pull out-b/c while it is perfectly acceptable for a girl to wear a blue onesie-it is just not ok to put a boy in pastel pink. And not that Van would allow it. Oh Lord. This is gonna be HIS child if it's a boy-not mine, not ours, just his. And he has made that clear and set me up to expect that and says he doesn't wanna hear anything about treating his first boy any different from his other three girls cuz it's true-he will be. Poor guy. Lol. I'm hoping it's a boy for his sake....ugh-and the sake of my eardrums. girls SCREAM so much man, jesus christ. And speaking of boys-my sweet, lovely, beautiful daughter is STILL being mistaken for a boy! I could understand it when she was an infant. She had like a blue blanket, and blue shoes-and so people would ask me if it was a boy or a girl. Now I take my baby out-dressed in pink or red-with pretty light up Dora shoes, and her hair all down, and carrying her "baby" DW-and people still ask me how old is "HE". We went to Payless so the girls could pick out birthday presents for their sister-and they each picked out very cute, very girly, size 7 toddler shoes. We take them up to the register and I ask the sales lady to put each pair in a seperate bag (so they don't fight over whose caryying the "presents" and she's very nice-she happily obligies. She also comes over and gives Nina three Strawberry Shortcake stickers, Jessie three Strawberry Shortcake stickers, and Trin three SPIDER-MAN STCKERS. dude, wtf?!?!?!?!?!
And I can't go off on this lady as much as I would like to. If Van had been there and seen my face he would have done that freeze up and inch away thing he does when I snap on someone in public............but I couldn't do it-she was just tryna be nice-she went outta her way to be nice. So I tell them all to say thank you and I walk away. And as we're leaving the girls ask me-"Why did she give Trin Spiderman stickers?" "I don't know." I respond "She must've thought Trin was a boy." And they give me this look, like "C'mon, mom-don't be ridiculous." B/c-they don't think their baby sister looks like a boy. It happened again at home depot(where, by the way, I feel i should mention some lil wannabe cute heifer was tryna hit on my husband-but thats neither here nor there-just if anyone knows a lil hispanic girl named Ashley that works at the Home Depot on Elston-pls do her a favor and let her know I WILL cut her. Thanks s'much.) at the the paint counter some chick with a slavic accent feels the need to come over and say "He looks just like his dad, no?" And as I clenched up my jaw-I saw Van giving me this look like-"No, babe, don't do it." So I went over to hime and I was just like "I think she is a very PRETTY girl-why can nobody else see that???????!!!"
Erh. That ends my tirade on that. I just happen to think my daughter is not boylike at all.
Back to the potential boy in my womb. I go to my ultrasound on the fifteenth of this month-and hopefully they'll be able to see WHAT I'M HAVING, finally. And I will update you all.
But until then-I'm still taking bets. More people think it will be a girl than a boy-but I guess we'll see.......

So Little Time

I feel so crappy I feel the need to blog about it. I don't know what the problem is....I just feel like.....pffffffft. No energy. No nothing. Maybe it's all the work we've been putting into getting shit ready for Trins party and the late nights working on the bed and the constant moving and reorganizing and persistent messiness.......I just feel drained today. And I still have so much to do. We gave the girls back early since our plans for today fell thru. Poor nina. She didn't want to go. She looked so sad. But they start back to school tomorrow-so she'll get over it quickly, I hope. Van went to go work on the bed. SO now it's just me. And Trin. And this room that needs to be cleared out, cleaned, and painted. And I just don't have the energy to do it. It's already four in the afternoon and nothings done. I need a nap. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Nap.
No. No nap. Bad ash. GrrrrRRRrrrrr. Must........PAINT.






Van-if you get home and I'm asleep.........
i'm sorry?

Today is my lil bebe's birthday!
Trinity Nerea Thompkins
Born:9/02/04 @ 9:02 AM
I'm so proud of her and love her today and ALWAYS!

Trini Likes....

What does the birthday girl like?????
As far as characters go-Trini likes;ELMO;DORA;TELETUBBIES;DISNEY PRINCESSES and anything with a dog or kitty on it.
Trini's interests include: Purses, Phones; Dishes; anything that opens and closes; anything her size she can sit on; babies; and again doggies and kitties.
Trini wears a size 7 shoe. 7 1/2 will probly be good if it's something for winter. Trini wears a 3T and 4T tops and 2T and 3T bottoms. Anything too big is still appreciated-cuz she WILL wear it eventually-and anything too smal better be a neutral color-cuz it's going to the baby, lol. She is a big fan of pockets and things that light up-go fig. lol.

Now for what mommy likes......mommy likes all childrens characters-except for the Wiggles cuz they are fuckin weird, and anything BRATZ is unnacceptable cuz they are junior whores.
I like anything "LeapPead" branded cuz that means it's supposed to stimulate her mind-so thats all good. However if you get something that plays nothing but music, loudly, you WILL be placed on my shit list. My parents gave her a toy like that once....and the volume control just HAPPENED to be broken.......assholes. Anyway-I'm not sitting thru "Old McDonald" 300 times a day for you or her. Batteries WILL be lost.
Moving on, as far as clothes go, I don't care where the come from-as long as they're cute! Her father has a thing for K*Swiss, Timbaland, and RocaWear-so if you wanna see him pee himself-you can get her one of those-but most of my friends think like me-"WTF does a baby need brand name stuff for????"
It's about to be September so please, no dresses(yes-I KNOW they're cute) unless they're really big-so she can wear em next year-or really fancy-so she can wear them for the holidays. She doesn't have a winter coat, or gloves, scarf or hat yet. I'm gonna see if she get anything of that nature for her bday-so the rest can match it, lol.
Thats it. Those just ideas in case your stuck. I never know what to get either.
Today I have to rtake the girls to pick something out to give to her-cuz when they came over they saw they pile of presents I had already bought and wrapped for Trin and were like "Oh no! We didn't get her one! Is one of those from us?" and they were very distressed. SO today I'm going to take them to get her one. So they can relax. lol.
See ya'll staurday.

Today I officially strt my first ever vacation from work.
So I'm off for a minute! YESS! I hope to see all my peoples at Trin's dinner on Saturday, cuz she's my first baby, and she's turning into a big kid! I can't freaking believe it. And it's a big day for me too-cuz it's been two years now-since I had a kid and made this ginormous transition from unstopabble party machine to responsible mama. And after then or until then or whatever


so ww can hang out. Ya'll know I tend to be hard to pin down......
