Big girls need Life Insurance To

Ok so I am just gonna vent a little here! So about 2 weeks ago, the husband and I go and sign ourselves up for some life insurance, you know, the responsible adult thing to do, since now its not just us we have to support! So yeah, we go after work one day sit for 45 mins - 1 hour getting all the necessary paperwork filled out. Only for me to get a letter in the mail 1 week later stating that I have been denied for Life Insurance due to Medical reasons!

Medical Reasons!!! Seriously? Am I sick? Am I dying? What is medically wrong with me that I dont know? Well after a few phone calls ( or no phone call) I fianlly recieved my call today telling me the exact Medical reason! Are you ready for this? Im over-weight! Seriously tell me something that I didnt know...hahaha.....but seriously, they are denying me all together because I am 15 -20 pounds over-weight!

So Im over-weight yeah yeah..........but this is why I am ticked..........WHY COULD THEY NOT HAVE JUST SENT ME A LETTER SAYING " Hey lady you are Fat, loose weight and try again" lol.....no seriously, why not just say, we are denying your claim, because you are a few pounds over our limit! Instead they went the easy way with Medical Reasons! Had me thinking there was somthing wrong, that even I didnt know was wrong!

So now my question is............What do BIG people do if they can qulify for life insurance, and something happens.......I honestly think that they should just make Bigger people pay more, regardless of how over-weight they are!!!!!!!! I mean seriously BIG PEOPLE NEED LIFE INSURANCE TO! I think this is just the insurances way of getting out of something like this! For heavens sake....Im sure they make their moneys worth off of young people (or young peoples parents) who sign up and pay for life insurance for 60 -70 years..

So Im just saying.....this really ticks me off......so guess now my fat butt needs to go on a diet and shed these 15 -20 pounds........then maybe this big girl can get some like insurance!!!!

Not Me Monday

So I thought that I would participate in MckMamas' Not Me Monday blog canival! So if you would also like to admit something you "didnt" do (but actually did), then hop on over and join in on the fun @ http://www.mycharmingkids.net/

This past thursday I did not lock my 7 month old in the car, and then I did not freak out and run around the car 2 times to make sure I hadnt missed a door handle on the first trip around!

And this said 7 month old did not sit in the car for 30 - 45 mins before someone could come and get him out!

Again this said 7 month did not slither out the bottom of his stroller and stand at the bottom and think that it was to funny that I did not see him stading there! (really I didnt even know he had exscaped!)

And again this said 7 month old was not standing up in his crib holding on to the side, I did not notice it and instantly run to grab my cell phone to grab a quick picture, which I did not turn around immediatly and send it to my mom to look at her big boy grandbaby! All while he was still standing up!!!



And I so did not just post that said picture and think "awww he is getting so big!!!"

Not me, not ever......I always pay attention to where and what he is doing!!!

Weekly Wrighting Assignment

I was reading the prompts of Mama Kats weekly writing assignment. And I decided that I was actually going to participate this time!!! So if you would like to participate also, here are the prompts:

The Prompts:

1.) How did you meet your best friend?(inspired by Kati from Country Girl, City Life)

2.) What are you feeling guilty about? or Memories of your childhood home.(inspired by Josie from Sleep Is For The Weak)

3.) Tell why you are ecstatic "The one that got away" got away.(inspired via twitter by Jay from Halftime Lessons)

4.) Have you found your bliss? What path did you take to get there? or are you still searching)(inspired by Carma from Carma Sez)

5.) Create a conversation between one of these three couples:(inspired by myself)

I have actually decided to go with prompt number 1 and prompt number 5……so yes I am going out on a limb on this and doing two of them!!!


Prompt #1: How did you meet your best friend?

So this is a story all about how my life got twisted /turned up side down, and Id like to take a minute, just sit right there, and I will tell you how I became friends with my best friend!( I know the song is stuck in your head now….hahaha) but anyways to continue........

So I moved to Alabama when I was 12 years old…….my dad decided that he wanted to move here, so we did. We loaded up all of our possessions that we could fit into a UHAUL truck and into the back of my parents Jeep Cherokee and we headed to Alabama. We would figure out where we would live when we got there! My dads’ family lives here in Alabama, so we figured it would be OK! We drove 8 hours all the way up here, I cried probably 6 hours of the trip! I was loosing all of my friends and family that I had known since I was little! What in the world was I going to do now?

Well I will tell you what I did……My mom enrolled me and my older sister in school shortly after we made it to our destination, and I began my 6th grade year at a new school with new people that I didn’t know! Was I scared? Sure……but I figured what the heck, I better make the best of it, because we weren’t going back to Florida! So I started trying to make friends. Some people were nice, and others were just mean to me!

The first time I ever met my BEST friend was when I got put into the same class as her for our homeroom teacher. She was one of the first people to be mean to me! Yes you read that right! She was mean to me to begin with! But after a day or so she realized just how cool I really was…..Ha-ha….no really she realized that she was trying to hang with the wrong type of people and that I was different than them! That I was generally a nice person who didn’t judge someone because of their clothes or their haircut! So from 6th grade on we have been inseparable! Don’t get me wrong we have had our disputes, but no matter what we have dealt with the differences and moved on!!!

So here is to 13 years of friendship…..Best Friend………and to many more to come!

Prompt #5: Create a conversation between one of these three couples:

I chose to do a conversation between the 3rd couple

Mrs. - Would you get off of me!

Mr. - I just wanted some sugar!

Mrs. – That’s fine…….just don’t kiss my freaking neck you know I can’t stand it!

Mr. – Ohhhhhh is it driving you Nuts?

Mrs. - Yes….but not like you wish it did…..now get off of me! ~!!!!

Mr. – But………

Mrs. – but nothing….get off……..why do you always do that while I’m cooking dinner or something! It’s not like it turns me on! Get off!

Mr. - (sulks away mad….because in the end he didn’t even get any sugar!!!!!)

So now you take your turn at trying one of these Weekly Writing Assignments!

TEETH!!!!

First of all I just wanted to say....... Will has a tooth!!! I felt it last night while sitting and watching my little sis play powder-puff football! He is the sweetest thing, just sittin there letting me put my fingers all in his mouth to check for some teeth! and sure enough I found one!!! Im so excited, he couldnt figure out what all the excitement was about...but thats ok...im still excited!

On another note......we went to walmart the other night to get some things, and I got the cutest darn picture of Will in a shoping cart, so I thought that I might share it with yall!

Its Time

So I guess it is time for a new blog.......to update on little man! He will be 7 months old on the 18th of this month! Man has time flew. He is trying to crawl now. It is soo cute when he is on the floor on his hands and knees and just cant figure out how to get those hands and knees moving at the same time to actually move! So instead he just rocks back and forth before he makes a face plant into the floor, towards what ever it is that he wants! He is pretty quick though, considering he isnt actually crawling, he can get to something before I even notice he has it in his hand/ mouth! He loves to eat, he will eat anything you give him. He loves to laugh...and I am talking a deep down from the lowest part of his belly laugh! It is the best thing to hear when you have had a bad day! He loves his mommy, daddy, pappy, grammy, pop, nanna, aunts, uncle and cousin more than anything.

He loves his cat precious, and she loves him just as equally. Well for right now that is anyways!


He had his 6 month check up back in August. He weighed 18lbs 14oz, he is a big boy! He thinks that he is to big for his car seat now! No suprise there though....he has never really enjoyed that! He went on his first florida trip in August to see Mamaw and Papaw. Im sure that is the first of many! He went to his first Go-Kart races last weekend.....again a first of many Im sure! He loved it, they didnt scare him at all, he wanted to get in them every chance he got. I have some pics I will have to post!

Here is his first time in a Go-Kart though......start them out small and they will do it forever! HAHAHAHA

He loves to go and watch his Aunt Haley play softball......he is such a ladies man already!

He loves to watch T.V. it dosent matter whats on, he just loves T.V ingeneral!

He is such a ham when it comes to the camera! He loves for his picture to be taken!

Guess thats about it for now!

Baby boy update!

Well baby boy is finally better, it seems that his stuffy nose is finally coming to an end! Thank GOD, I honestly dont know how much more I could have taken from the in-laws before I blew up! I look back at before I had him and I seriously dont know what I did without him.....it is such a joy to have! I look forward to picking him up from daycare, and him jabbering all the way home to me, like he has a days worth of stuff that he just has to tell me! But let me tell you, that is the only time I can get his little but to jabber to me......as soon as we get home, its all about his daddy! That boy loves his daddy......I am so glad though, hes not a clingy mommas boy! Only when he is sick or sleepy! But Jay is getting much better at getting him to sleep, his patience is getting much better also. I love to just sit and watch my two boys laugh and talk to each other! Its the greatest feeling in the world to be a mommy! But anyways, as soon as I get my pics off of my camera onto a disk I will most definatly post some of the most adorable pics you have ever seen in your life!
