Cloth Diapering

OK so i said i would be writing about cloth diapering, well it started becasue aleya would go potty and had to be changed right then so when she was awake she woudl have to be changed about every 20 min and that was getting very expensive, so i looked into clot, the inital price is expensive but worth it.

becasuse now when she wantes to be changed no more thowing money in the trash. all i do is flush the solids and rinse the liner and then in the washerit goes and i wash then at night then out them int he dryer int he morings. and i use pocket diapers/AI2 on size diapers i like happy heiny's the best but i sttred with an off bran off ebay which owrk just fne as well.

i also went to nashville for the day on saturday and joe kept aleya all day which was a goo day and he did  great job i missed her but after finding out i have post partum depression it was a much neded get away.

We had aleya's 2 month pictures done and ill be possting them as soon as i get them..

anymore questions abou diapers or ppd just ask me

have blessd day

Aleya's First Easter

ok so i said i would post about easter,


Sunday morning we got up andgot ready to go to church, i knew she would get hungry bout 9am but she did not i was leaving for church at 9:45am and its an hour drive to church. well9:30 camearounf and she was hngry so i said well maybe i can give her 3oz to her until we get to church he only drank 2 of the 3 i got lucky. so i got her dressed and got our changes o clothes and off we went.

We met joe's mom who went and joined us at our churh fo easter (this made me really happy)
oce we got to church of course everbody had to see her and say how pretty she was. church starts with the handbell choir now aleya loves music but hated the handbells she sarted to cry and i feel terrible when she cries in church(normally because she ishungry) then sh statred to cry becaus she was hungry but every time we snag a hymn she had to stop drinking because she loves music and hearing me sing that much.

After church we went to my cousin's house and whole family onmy dads side got to meet hr 9 my grandmother grandfather and aunt had alreadyseen her in the hospital but in 2 months she had changed alot for my aunt and my gm and gp only see her 1ce a week)
well she wa fussy almost the entire time because there was so much going on that she did not want to nap she wanted to know wat was happening and being passed around between the woman just stressed herout. so we left arounf 4 and she slept frm t emoment we got int he car the whole way ome and the  3 more hours. ten slept all night minus one feeding at 2:15

Needless to say we had a really good easter just wished joe could have bee off work

now a few pictures

Tomorrow

Just an FYI when I can get on the laptop tomorrow I'm going to be posting about my easter

What wa suppose to be big news

Well what was suppose I e big news just turned into a big mess up on my part, I was suppose to take my written test for my cosmetology state board test on Wednesday, so I go to the testing site mom has aleya no big deal so I walk up to the door the sign reads:

"Only open on Tuesday's and Thursday and some Saturday's" ( its Wednesday)
So then thee is another sign "if you show up for a test and nobody is here please call (and it gives a number)"

So I call only to find out my test was Tuesday at 11:30 not Wednesday at 11:00. I missed my test I was so mad at myself because I wrote down as she was telling me my date last week April 3 at 11:30 but when I got off the phone I was saying wednesday April 4 at 11:00. So now I have to send state board a letter satin I missed it with another $50 then they will send me something back in the mail for me to reschedule so I'm looking at another 2 weeks, I was so mad

End of spring break!

Wednesday joe came home!!!!! Well more like 1:30 Thursday morning. But during the day wed my mom came to visit with my sister aleya and me and we went shopping and Xander spent the day with joes mom. Then how was off Thursday an he and Xander did yard work and played basketball. Friday Xander and I did absoulutly nothing. Then Saturday joe was off again and he spent the day with aleya and Xander so I had a nice relaxing day. Church on Sunday of course and the usual day in Huntsville then took Xander back to his moms, for once joe was home when I got back from taking Xander. So now I'm laying in bed with a baby who is wide awake!! My 6 week post pregnancy appt is today! Wednesday I have something big happening but I'm going to wait until after it happens to tell y'all about it. More to come have a blessed day

the start of our spring break

well as yall know im out of school finally graduated but it is Xander's spring break and it is our spring break to have him this year.. so i picked him up on sunday night and got taco bell for dinner we have fallen in LOVE with the dorito tacos!! then monday my sister took him to play golf while Aleya and i ran a few errnads then they got home and we lounged around all day. joe got home pretty early so all five of us got the spend time together then we cooked dinner.Joe had to go to Myrtle Bech for meetings but will be home late wednesday night.

So today joe leaves at 1:30am headed out of town so im at home with aleya and xander and brittney.
ny grndmother cme over and brittney and her and me went to gadsden to look for easter outfits while xander was with his mawmaw. then we came home and i had a breakdown becuase i had a moment where i wanted to be by myslef with aleya and no body else, and my grandmother told me to let her hold her so i pretty much shoved aleya at her then felt even worse like i was a terrible mother for doing it because it was not aleya's fault. so here i am in aleya's room crying and texting joe while brittney and aleya dn my grandmother are in the livingroom, then thanks to my lovly sister my grandmother leaves and aleya and i get in my bed and rest having mommy daughter time. xander came home and brittney started dinner, and xander did the sweetest thing and ask me how to pick up aleya because he wanted to hold her and he was giving her kisses, then he put her back on the couch next to me and she started LICKING my arm,... we videoed that it was so funny, so now we are all just relaxing.

Xander will be with his granny tomorrow and my mom is coming to spend the afternoon with aleya brittney and me so i will write about that probably on friday and ill do a post of just pictures from my phone ( what i take all my pics with) later tonight..

Being a mom of a 1 month old

Well joe has gone to work ( he leaves between 5 &6 am) so its just me and miss Priss all day, but because I don't work i let hubby sleep through the night so I'm up and down through the night then up all day with feedings and diaper changes and just cuddling with my sweet daughter,

We laying in bed until about 11:00am then it's bath time and lunch time then she takes a nap in her swing then time to eat again and diaper change and just a repeat process.

I was so happy when she would sleep in her cradle because trying to sleep all night with a baby asleep onuour chest is not easy ( the only way she would sleep) well more later today or maybe tomorrow joe is off tomorrow and we have my stepson ( he is 10) Xander for spring break starting tomorrow as well we will see


God bless everybody

Aleya Marie Jolley

its been awhile due to having my sweet baby Aleya!! she was born Feb. 17,2012 at 5:13am weighing 9lbs 2ozs and 21inlong. iwas in labor for at least 24 hours before she arrived. she is now 5 weeks old and growing like a weed, and looks like her momma. she can hold her head up by herself and can roll over already. i love just watching her sleep and just look up at me and smile. she loves her daddy soo much.

What a relaxing day to begin a wondrrful weekend

Well i have done nothing today besides wash a few dishes fix myself breakfast and lunch and take a very nice and needed 2 hour nap. Joe will be home probably about 9 or 9:30 tonight but ill have my stepson xander at 6:00 for the weekend. I hope my mom comes to visit me tomorrow i have not seen her in two weeks.

Well now that I have finished cosmetology school and 39 weeks pregnant all I have to do lately is relax and get the house even more ready for the arrival of my beautiful daughter. My husband joe is already gone to work for the day( he works so much sometimes) I don't have much to post this morning maybe more this afternoon
