Baby Friemel....

Baby Friemel.....

So Everyone keeps asking me what we need or what we need for Mister baby Friemel. We have a list I had made a few months back. We won't make a baby Registry, but i have a list of things that we still need for the baby if you are still wanting to know what we need :)!!!
If it has a line through it, it just means we thought of it and have it already, and if it's off the list we probably forgot about it or we haven't thought about using it for this baby. Anything you want to get for mister baby friemel WILL NOT be taken for granted and I want to thank everyone in advance. 

Before I begin to tell you what we need or want I want to tell you more about what is going on..

Most of you didn't even know we were pregnant until a few weeks ago, some probably do not even know it.. It's NOT because we did not want you to know, so do not think you were left outta the loop. We had some very scary health issues. Due to those the doctor told us it was better left unsaid until everything was figured out.
With this pregnancy I have lost 25 lbs, my legs were turning purple, and I was in extreme pain. No one could tell me what was going on and we were scared. My uterus is twisted and tilted caused from a baby c section with little miss LoreLei Lane. Also other things that were causing things to go bad, but now we are extremely excited to say we will be having our first and last little boy. :)!

If you have any questions or comments go ahead and ask me .. Worst thing I'll tell you is to bug off :)!!!!!

My Baby Wash Rags...

My baby wash rags...


Here is my very first baby wash rag I made for baby Friemel. I can't wait to make more. I think I'd have to say my sewing skills are getting a little better thanks to my husband :D

I did make a few pink ones for my brother's new baby that will be coming as well as a few others I can not wait to get them all complete. As soon as I do I will get them updated on here :D

And this is why..

And this is why I want to grow out my hair .. 



postpartum-ponytailspostpartum-ponytails





I don't know what goes through my mind every time I chop off my hair. So for now On I think i'm going to post a picture of long hair on every mirror in my house and on my fridge. 

I know this is kind of corny for a blog, but everytime I see someone with perfect long hair I get so jealous. I don't know why I keep cutting off my hair. Its normally not a big deal but I want to keep putting myself together to look more and more like a mother and not a little punk kid. Most people think I look like i'm 13 or 14 I'm almost 27 years old. It's time to put myself together a little more :)!










What to do with LoreLei Lane ..

LoreLei's Birthday .. :)

On Oct 31st was LoreLei Lanes Birthday Party And More..

We have a very eventful day with Lorelei and Lily. We had so much work to get done in the morning and surprisly we got it all finished on time, even with two little girls who didn't want us to get anything done. Both were surprisingly crabby. Maybe crabby is not the correct word of choice, but they sure weren't themselves. LoreLei was just over tired, and Lily is teething.

When Lily went down for a nap though she went down hard. She's such a little sweetheart though I don't mind her being a little fuss butt. :)! Her smile melts me in half.

Okay on with the day....

LoreLei had her "girls" come over for a while since they couldn't come to her party. They brought her some chalk and make up.. She was so excited. I think she was most excited about the balloons though.

Their mother, Miss Deborah, helped me mix somethings while I got Lily ready to go home. THANK YOU miss DEBORAH for all your help.

Also thank you Mister Wildon who also spent all day in the kitchen with me :) and going on my little runs when I forgot to grab things at the store.








LoreLei Lane did however get her darn purple cake that she wanted. When we made frosting though we made pink and green. It was a lot of fun :)!



We ran outta time for the frosting so we did a QUICK frosting job, but the cake and the frosting sure we yummy :D 

I LOVE WEDDING CAKE FROSTING :)!















thank you jenna and kristie for bringing your families over to share some time with us for lorelei's birthday :D

30 Day Challenge

What Am I thankful for ....

1 st ... I am thankful for my life... :)!!!!! So many people are unhealthy at at this point in my life I have been lucky to be very healthy with everything that has happened.  Might sound kind of an ego  thing but i see to many people being ill.. makes me sad :(

2nd .... I am so thankful for my children and child to be. Sometimes this mother gets a little frustrated with things they do or say, but it doesn't mean I'm not thankful for them. I love them very much.

Summer LaRae is Summer LaRae.. My little Princess. She's my sweet cuddle bug who will tell me how much she loves me and what I do for her that she loves. She is a hard child to put to words, only because she's such an easy daughter to love. :)

LoreLei Lane.. She's my Clown. My Frankie Jane.. My baby girl who makes me laugh every single day. No matter what she's always making me laugh. If she's happy nor sad she'll still make you laugh.  She's a character I can tell you that.

3rd.... Death do Us Apart... I am very thankful for my husband. I am thankful for him because of many reasons, not just one, because he sure has changed my life.

Without him I'd be back to square one.. Lost and Confused.. He is Simply wonderful. As Korny as that sounds.

4th... I would have to say I'm very thankful for meeting some of the most amazing in EVER. Some  people don't know this but i have a very supportive mother in law. Who has been there for us and helped us through some rough times. Also I'm thankful for what my mother has been there or not been there for through out the years.. She's made me a very strong person.

5th.. I am thankful homemade Chix Noodle Soup on days that I'm not feeling very well. Not only does the taste of it make me feel better the smell of it reminds me of back home. Reminds me of the simple things that can make a person happy.

6th. I am thankful that I can be a stay at home mother for now. It means the world to me to be able to stay at home. Days I go crazy I remember what it is like to actually get dressed and go to work and not see or talk to my loved ones until the day is over. :(!

7th. I am thankful for the right to be able to vote in our country for what I believe in.. Even if the person next to me does NOT vote for the same person. I'm also thankful I don't have to listen to election stuff for another few years :D :D

8th... I am thankful for my brother Brett, who turned 16 today :)! He has actually made me the strong person I am today. Without him I would have NOT grown up fast. And I would have NOT been as strong as I am today. Him and I have went through a lot in our life time together and I love him dearly. He's one of the people I think about daily and one reason  I can not wait to get back to wisconsin for. I need my brother back in my everyday life. I LOVE YOU BRETT LLOYD EDGE.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY......

9th... I am thankful for the fact I had my grandparents growing up. If it weren't for them I do not know where I would be today. I am thankful because they showed me right from wrong.

10th..... This one might be a little harsh, but I am very thankful about how mean my father talked to me the last time I talked to him he made me want to be a better person and become a better mother.

11th... For all the vets out there like my uncle John "fuzzy" elliott... John was one of the most caring men in the world. He has showen me so much in life. He is MY HERO forever. Thank you for being part of my life.. You might be gone, but you are never forgotten. You will always have a place in my heart.

12th... I am thankful for the shelter I have over my head. Even though I might HATE HATE this apartment I am so very thankful for it. Without it I would not be able to take care of my children the way I do.

13th... My daily thanks goes to my husbands father...Whenever Wil is down or confused about something he is just a phone call away and helps Wil understand what he's confused or lost about. It really means a lot to me to know Someone is there willing to help out as much as he can and still be across the country.

14th.. I'm thankful for the babysitting jobs I have, without them I don't think I would be able to keep up with the extra activities this families wants to do :)!

15th.... I'm thankful for the nice people I've met here in Florida and the help they have given this family. One of the ladies I babysit for just gave us a mobile and bumper set.. How sweet .. :D 


16th... I'm thankful for my PAPA.. yes I said MY PAPA! He's the most AMAZING guy who is alive to this day making sure day to day we have everything we need. I love you grandpa.. Thank you for all your love and support.

17th...I'm thankful for my grandma .. Without her who knows how I would have managed over the years.. thank you!

18th.... I'm thankful for my friends here in florida.. they are amazing. I'll be sad that I leave .

Randomness From LoreLei Lane



As I'm sitting on the couch I hear something coming from LoreLei was some babbling. I really wanted to know what the heck she was talking about or two.
She was standing next to my vaccum cleaner saying OH HUSBAND of mine, 
You dear are my best friend and I love you.
While she's hugging the darn thing tries to Kiss it and says Baby I love you.
I'm going to bed goodnight .. What a nerd ...
