New Name

Hey y'all! I have decided to change my url to crazyinal.blogspot.com. When I originally chose the girlsgirlsgirls, I intended for that to reflect that I have lots of female children, however, I fear that when I am being googled, this is not what people deduce!! I don't know how I always seem to get myself into these type situations. Please remember when I first signed up at blogger, I thought it would be cool to have adsense, that was until I was advertising Hot Russian Women on my site!! Anyway, I hope that you will continue to visit me at my new, less X-rated name, crazyinal.blogspot.com.

OOPS....

My pal Valarie pointed out that I only posted 5 things instead of 10......Sorry, I'm a little slow this morning. We had an....ummmmmm......eventful weekend.

Here's the other five
6. I Must watch Dancing with the Stars and Grey's Anatomy weekly.
7. I secretly would love to dance like the people on DWTS
8. I have a BA and MA in Social Work; one from Auburn and one from U of Alabama
9. I totally flip out if anyone even thinks about touching my collarbone....you don't want to see what happens if someone accidentally touches that area.
10. I come from a long line of enablers....i think this directly relates to the profession I have chosen......."do as I say, not as I do"

Thanks for keeping me straight Val!!!

100 Things About me

My girls had to do this at school. They had a hard time and I got to thinking about whether or not I could do a list of 100 things about myself. So, I started and let me tell you, it's harder than it sounds. I have decided to post 10 at a time each week until I get all 100. If anyone wants to play along, please do. This is a good way for us to get to know each other a little better, even though you may not want to know some of the stuff that I have come up with!!! LOL Here goes:


1. I have been a wife to my hubby for 5 years


2. I have been married twice


3. I am a mother to 4 beautiful girls


4. I am an aunt to a 17 month old neice and a 4 day old nephew


5. I am an Auburn fan.......WAR EAGLE!


Ok, so those were gimmes, but check me out next week for some stuff you probably didn't know about me already!

UPDATE: Our little man is named Lucas Christopher. He is doing well and will probably get to go home today....YEAH! My SIL got to come home yesterday. Thank you for all your prayers.

Little Man


Our new baby got here yesterday!! He weighed 5lbs 9oz and was 17.5 in. He is in the NICU right now cause he is having trouble breathing, but they expect him to be able to come home on Monday. Here is a pic a few minutes after he was born.

Hmmm......

Today, as I was eating a very nutritious breakfast that consisted of a 3 Musketeers and Dr. Pepper, I was told by a coworker that this is not good to eat for breakfast. This got me to thinking, again, about who decided that candy was candy and that you could only eat it for dessert. Who decided that eggs were for breakfast and for that matter who decided that cornbread goes good with dinner? Likewise, who decided that curse words were curse words? Why is butt not just as bad as the explicative for butt? We all know what it means. If anyone has seen the Obrit comercial where the guy gets caught cheating you know what I'm talking about. They say things like "What the French, Toast?" While I find this wildly hilarious, we all know what could be said in place of this? So why is one bad and not the other. Another example is the work "freakin'" I have to threaten my oldest's life most of the time not to use this word. To me it is just like she is saying the F word.
Anywhoo, I have tried over the years to implement words or phrases that I think are cool. It almost worked last year when I started using my fingers and mouth to spell out "WOW". I really thought this was catching on, but I did it the other day after a long period of not doing it and did not get the response that I was looking for. Anyway, my point is that either if I am not important enough to start catch phrases or come up with words, who is? Who are these powerful people that came up with the word Yogurt or balloon, or bologna? I need to know these things!!

Countdown to Baby!

Well, shortly after my post yesterday we found out that we will be getting a new addition to our family on Thursday. Our little boy decided that he has waited long enough! My SIL is 36 weeks now so they are thinking that everything will be ok with him. She just keeps losing weight and her BP is sky high (169/100 yesterday)......So at 7:30 on Thursday we will get to meet our new little man. Still no name yet, though I think everybody has put in their two cents about the name! Anyhoo, I will put up some pics as soon as I get them on Thursday! Please pray that everything is well with him when he makes his grand entrance!

I also met two new pals in blogland yesterday that have big families like myself. Jana and Julie both have five children. Go visit them!
