Too Long To Post :)

2010-10-09T19:55:00.000-07:00

So I logged on today and relized that along has happened since the last time I posted. So lets see I will take a trip back in time. lol Okay so that sounded kind of cheesy. So lets see.......... Ally got to meet more of her dads family and they are so great. They have been there for her alot more then her dad. We have been hanging out with Mikelle and Kambry so that ally can get to know her sister a little more. But you can tell they are sisters they sure fight like it lol. I am a new aunt again! Mike and Dlaina had their baby and named him Brock. He is so cute!! We went to st george with my friend Lucy and the girls got to ride a horse which I think was their most favorite part of the trip. Well and I figure out that Rylee is a real country girl at heart. Its cute she wants to be a cowgirl for halloween. Ally is going to be belle from beauty and the beast and I got to make her costume this year. She is going to look so cute in it. I was fun to do it. Time consuming as well. We are staying with my grandma right now due to some hard family issues at home. But it is nice we still get to see my mom and spend some time with her. It has been nice. My grandma and aunts have been such a great support for me. I am lucky to have the family and friends I do that I know are always here for me. I realized something though is that I need to get out more and do play dates for the kids and get out for me. But until I can think of more to write I will try to keep up on this more.

Birthday Girls

2010-02-03T13:35:00.000-08:00

So Allys birthday was yesterday. I can not believe she is 2 already. They grow way too fast. Here pretty soon Rylee is going to be 4. I guess my babies arent babies anymore. Where does the time go. My friend tesha larsen did some more pictures of the girls for there birthday. So I just had to post them cause they look so cute. And yes there is some of Ally smiling this time. Yay!!!!

Ally and her sister Kambry

Hey Everyone

2010-01-23T13:43:00.000-08:00

Hey I hope everyone is doing well. I know we are. I decided that I am going to be a better mom, friend, daughter, sister,....etc. I am going to try and not worry about the drama in life. I am going on with a positive attitude.

To start I have stopped drinking soda pop and have lost 10 pounds already. I have been working out at night. I want to look better and feel better.

Yesterday my friend Tesha did Rylees and Allys birthday pictures. I cant believe how fast they grow up. It feels like you just have them and then they are all grown up. But once I get the pictures back I will post them so you all can see. I can wait to see what she does with them. She is really good at what she does. I just want her to know that I appreciate all she has done for me.

Ally is also spending more time with her other sister Kambry. I know as they get older that they will be good friends. She is also going to meet her other grandpa tomorrow. So wish us luck.

Also something new for this year is I have Rylee in a dance class. I am doing it so that maybe she wont be so clingy to me when she starts Pre-School. Plus I thought it would be a good way for her to get her energy out. Her teacher is the best. She is so good with her and Rylee really likes her. I am so excited for her first recital. It will be fun. But I will keep up more this year. Love you all. Thank you all for all you have done for me.

Rylee, Ally and me would like to wish everyone a very merry christmas and a happy new year. We had a great year, sharing it with friends and family. We hope the next year will be better and that we can all get together more. Do more girls nights and do more play dates. It was nice to see old friends and make some new ones. We all you all very much.

Thankful For .....

2009-11-17T21:42:00.000-08:00

I just want to say I am thankful so all my wonderful friends and family that love me and my girls and know how to make us feel better when were down. I also want you to know that we love and care about you all So don't ever forget it.

I am also thankful that I am able to go to school. I love learning about the different things that I can do to help other people. I am understanding it really well too which makes it easier. I am thankful for Melissa for going to school with me. I don't know what I would do with out us doing this together and making a better life for our kids.

I am thankful that I have such fun, cute, and sometimes trying little girls. They have made my life such and adventure and I would never take it back. We have been through our ups and downs, but we always seem to make it through. I think that know that you will have some one that will always love you and be their for you helps make going through each stressful day just a little bit easier.

I am also thankful that Rylee was able to get her teeth fixed so that now she can eat tons better and act allot more happier.

I just wanted to say too that I hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving. And don't forget to let the people know that you are thankful for everything they do for you.

Family

2009-10-30T22:15:00.000-07:00

I love my family to death and love spending time with them, but I hate how some times like for instance big holidays when they plan separate parties and dont invite everyone. It is sad because that is what holiday's are all about. Spending time with the ones you love and showing how much you care.

I think we all need to get past the crap and start learning how to be a family. I have seen us all get along at family things before and I know we can do it. But if we are going to start acting like we dont cant and spending it separately then I dont want to be involved with any of it. I want everyone to get along and start acting like grown ups. To learn to share the warmth of the holiday's together and getting along like we use too.

I dont know who all follows my blog or not. But if you do, I am not trying to be rude I just want an understanding of why things have to be this way. I want us to all and try to get along. To do what we all know we should do. I am sorry if this upsets anyone but I think we all need to grow up and start learning to act like a family. I love you all and always will.

Family Pictures

2009-10-15T21:28:00.000-07:00

So we finally got our family pictures taken and one of my really good friends took them for us. They turned out really good. But because ally really didnt know tesha she didnt really smile but i think as she gets to know her that she will start smiling at her for pictures. Cause we all know ally can smile cute.

So of course rylee was my movie star. She loved having her picture taken and it was cute to see how well she did. Once I get her teeth fixed I want to get her into being a model in photo graphs. I think she would be so cute. But I guess that is just a mom thing. Everyone thinks that their kids should be in mag. and commercials. But here they are. I hope you guys like them. She did an awesome job and if you are looking for some one to do it she is the one. Just let me know if you are interested I can give you her number. That is if she doesnt mind.

Halloween

2009-09-28T09:44:00.000-07:00

So yay halloween is coming up. The time of ghosts and goblins and witches and yummy halloween treats. I am needing some ideas on what to dress the girls up like. I want to do something really cute cause I want to get there pictures taken. So any ideas would be great. Rylee has been a fairy 2 years in a row and ally was a spider last year so some thing cute and different. Also I was thinking that it would be fun to get together and do a little halloween party for all the kids We could do like a carnaval thing and each parent can do a game. Let me know what you think so that we can get this planned and started. I think it would be fun. Let me know if you want to help or Join the fun. How about we do an rsvp. If there are people you want to come let me know. This is for anyone who would want to come do something fun. Just post on here or email me at mygirls23@gmail.com. Thanks again you guys are awesome.

Just Venting

2009-08-23T19:17:00.000-07:00

Ok so lately I have been feeling a little down in the dumps and I dont know why. Well ok so I kind of do. I feel like I never do anything. My life is just a repeated cycle of wake up, go to school, get the girls from daycare, then come home and clean. I only have my self to blame really because my friend lacie sends me texts inviting me to go out with her and some other of her friends. I also have scared away and great guys that I would have a good relationship with. I need some opinions or comments on how to get out of this rut I am in. So any suggestions would be great.

Update

2009-08-20T20:01:00.000-07:00

Ok so it has been awhile since I have been on. But what has been happening is that one of Rylee's earrings was pulled out by eth while they were playing and we were unable to get it back in so we ended up having to take them out. It was sad and she bugs me all the time about getting them done again. But I told her if she would let her hair grow long(which it is) that I will get her ears done again.

Ally has gotten more teeth in. It was a hard few weeks case she was really sick and now much on eating. And those who know her know that she usually loves to eat all the time. She is my good eater. But now that they are in she is happy and eating well.

Now with me I am now in school at Stevens Henager and am going there to get my Associates Degree in Medical Specialties. I am loving it so far. It is fun and Melissa went back with me. It is nice to have some one you know there to help you out when you need the support of someone else.It will be a good experience for the both of use. So when I graduate I will let you all know and you can come. Thanks for following my blog.

Pierced Ears

2009-06-19T14:39:00.001-07:00

So rylee has been bugging me for along time that she has been wanting to get her ears pierced and I decided that I would take her and let them go through the process and if she would let them that she could get it done. So she started out good letting them clean and mark her ears but then when I put her on my lap to actually get it done she did good up until they had the earring guns at her ears.After it was done she only cried for a few seconds and them was fine. But not too long after was she out there showing them off to everyone. They look really cute. They are diamond flowers and she loves them. She said that she wanted her sister to go get her ears done so that she could be like her and her grandma. You gotta love kids!!! I know I do.

Missionaries

2009-06-01T18:41:00.000-07:00

So The missionaries came over because I feel that it will help me learn more and stay closer to god. But any ways it was funny because ally was sitting by them flirting with them like the cute little flirt she is and so Rylee took that as an oppertunity too get into trouble. That always seems to happen when I am trying to do things like that. Like everytime I read the scriptures she will mess the room up. Grrrr. Ha ah ha. I dont know what that was?? So doesnt it seem like that always happens though that every time you try to do something spiritual or I guess I should say anything for you kids get into trouble. Like right now for instance I bet you can never guess who is off getting into trouble. So I will go and leave it at this.

Whats Happened Lately

2009-05-27T20:34:00.000-07:00

Ok so sorry it has been awhile but to catch up on what has been going on. Ally is starting to walk. It is cute cause she is one of those babies that she will do it when she wants and when she is ready too. Gotta love being a parent. Rylees hair is really short now. Long story full of hair cut experiances. I am not dating a sweet guy. But I am taking it step by step. I dont want to rush into anything until I know for sure. I will be starting at Target this weekend. I am so excited. So you will all have to come say hi. It is the one in orem off of center street. But that is all I can think of for now.

Back Home Again

2009-05-18T18:31:00.000-07:00

So we are finally back in Utah for good. It is so nice to finally be back with everyone. We missed our family so much and it seems like we were missed as well. I will hopefully be getting back on at target this week. Then the girls will be going to a day care called Kinder Care. It is such a good place. They work with the kids and teach them some fun things which will be good for Rylee it will get her ready for school. She is so excited to go there and so is Ally. When we went to check it out Ally wanted to get down and play with they kids. Soooo Cute.

But I am back living in Lindon with my Parents and my number is still 995-2304. So if any friends would like to get together to do play dates with the kids or just get together and do a girls night let me know.

Also now that we are living back at home it is fun for the girls because Rylee and Ally have someone to play with. Michael and Dlaina are living in the basement and Ethan and the girls are really both enjoying some one to play with. I will try to get some pics on here soon. Love ya all.

Church

2009-05-03T13:41:00.000-07:00

I am so proud of Rylee today. When we went to church today and dropped her off at nursery she was a little nervous at first but she did it. She stayed in there the whole time and they didnt have to come get me. I am so proud with how big she is getting and also how grown up.

Plus lately she has been so excited to learn about jesus. She says that she loves jesus and that she wants to go to the temple. And right now she is making up a song about heavenly father. What a gift children are. They can be such an example to us in so many ways. I hope that I can start to be as loving and forgiving as her.

You would all be proud I have been reading the scriptures almost everyday and praying every morning and night. I like Rylee would like to be able to go to the temple some day. I have seen how happy it makes families and couples who get married and sealed in the temple. I want to be with my family forever. I miss you all and hope to see you all soon.

Vegas Life For A Single Mom

2009-04-30T22:48:00.000-07:00

So I am adjusting to just moving from utah to vegas and I am having a little bit of a hard time. It is really hard when everyone is asleep or in the room with someone and you are out in the family room to really thing about how lonely you really are. I know it sounds pitiful but I just feel sad when I have time to think about the direction my life has taken me. I have had a beautiful little girl. Been married then divorced. Had another beautiful little girl then dumped and hurt by many men. I know that it was for the best that those things happened but it doesnt make it any easier. I would talk to my family about it but I just dont want to hear that I told you so or that I knew it wouldnt work out. I havent been here long so I want to give it a try.

I am excited that I finally have 2 job offers and I cant wait to start working at one of them. I know that will help out with the lonely feeling. I will being doing something productive. Then I also wont feel like I have to clean the whole house all the time. Do the dishes everynight. I appreciate them taking me in and giving me a chance at a new start. I just in a way feel lost in this world. I dont know what I should do. Where should I live? Or how I am going to make it?? Ok so the last one is one you never really know.

I really dont know my way around here so that doesnt help the situation but I dont really have any where to go. Plus I do need to go anywhere I map quest it. I thank heaven that we have that. Other wise I would never leave the appartment. I guess it is just hard living in a new place with not too many people that you know. So once I start going to the singles ward that would probably take care of that.

I am not sure if this is what you are suppose to do on a blog page but this is how I am using mine. This is my way of showing who the real me is.

Thank You

2009-04-29T18:45:00.000-07:00

Ok so I just had to add for today that Ally now says thankyou all the time and it sounds so freakin cute. Gotta love Ally. Kids are what makes life so exciting. Sorry it sounds like I am advertising people to have kids. Well I guess people should if they want too.

Which Job to Chose

2009-04-29T12:13:00.000-07:00

Ok so I have a delema. As most of you know I have moved to Nevada and have been looking for a job. And what a chore that has been especially in times like this. But any ways so I have recieved 2 job offers. One from Target, which they have been a pain because they have been telling me diffrent things each time I talk to them. Then the Marriott has offered me a job in house keeping which I got the job offer right when I went in.

Target- Will start me out at 7.50, I will be working on the sales floor, I should have had orientation 2 days ago which they canceled on me, It is a full time position and the lastest I would ever be there is 10 pm.

Marriott- I will get paid different prices for the different sizes of rooms which are time shares. I will have 3 days off and 4 days on. It is a full time position. I will get paid weekley. It is open 24 hours so hours can vary.

So I need your help. Any advice or information on both jobs would help out. I want to chose the best job for me and I am looking for votes on which to chose. This really all the information I have right now. Let me know.

Rylee's Self Hair Cut

2009-04-28T16:50:00.000-07:00

So Liz walked into her bathroom last night after the girls fell asleep and found that there was a good chunky of blonde hair on the floor and called me in. I knew that hair color from anywhere and I knew it was Rylee's hair. I wanted to cry just seeing it. I didn't even pay attention to how her hair looked when she was laying by me. When she woke up I noticed it was all in the front and when we asked he why she did it. She said she was cutting her banges. The other bad thing is that I have no money to get her hair fix and when it does get fix it is going to be a short hair cut. So parents. Always watch your kids. Be cautious when it gets quiet and never ever let your little girl play with scissors. Cause then you have to get all that beautiful hair cut short.:( Dlaina I wish we lived closer so that you could try to fix it.

All About Us

2009-04-27T13:06:00.000-07:00

Hey so I am kindof new at this but here it is. So I am Rachael and I have 2 beautiful girls that are just a blessing. They can also be quite an adventure. Rylee has just turned 3 in february. She really tests me and sees what she can get away with. But I think everyone knows that at that age that is what they do. When she was born she was born a month early because i fell on some ice when I was working at babies r us. So she was little and to this day is still tiny. Then there is Ally who also had a birthday in February and has turned 1. They are so fun at this age. Just how everything seems so fun to get into. Like she loves to talk on the phone. It doesnt matter if there is even anyone on the phone to talk to she is always talking into one. Oh and she also loves to dance to that old motown music thanks to her aunt lizzie. They are both such a blessing to me and I dont know what I would do without them. I love my girls. We have been through good times and bad and are so close because of our adventures.

I am trying to make it through this crazy world and have recently started to read the book of mormon. I was thinking that for so long of being raised in the church I have never really read it all the way through. I feel that maybe that would help me understand things a little better and be a happier person. I want to some day find a best friend who loves me and my girls enough to want to have us all be sealed in the temple together. I know that I have done alot of stuff that I am not proud of. But I want to be able to be a better person. I am getting there. I love my family so much.

That is all I can really think of to say about myself. Oh we have recently moved to Henderson, NV to live with my Step Sister Liz and her soon to be husband Luke.
