Dumb Boy Thing.

I told Kayden to let the dog off of his leash i go inside and help my mom with the computer and i hear Kayden screaming bloody murder. SO i open the back porch door and Kayden is standing there holding his eye i scream out to him "WHAT IS THE MATTER" My eye my eye my eye so i run down the steps and pull Kaydens hand away from his eye and this dog leash hook thingy is hooked to his FREAKING eye. I mean it was way in there like "why the heck did you do that in there?" So i take Kaydens eye lid pull it out and unhook the leash in his eye. its red bruised and man oh man i bet that hurt. SO i take him to his Doctor.



He uses a fluorescent drop gel stuff to see if his cornea was scraped and it wasn't.
Thank goodness gave us a prescription of eye drops to make sure there is no infection and sends us on our way.

His eye wasn't this bad, but it had some goo and his eye was so swollen.
I bet he wont do this again.
Q: So what kind of kid stories do you have? Has your kid/ someone you know done a dumb thing? Tell me all about it.

Adoption!


I cant imagine how hard it is to be an adoptive mom who has an open adoption with the their birth moms. Just thinking whether you had done something right or wrong? Are you raising them the way the Birthmoms wanted them to be raised? Is there something else you could have done better? Am i doing the right thing by having an open adoption? * well i guess the whole are you raising them the way the Birthmoms want is a little over board, but that was the only way i could think of it so don't take that question the wrong way* :)

Well the answer to those questions, there isn't anything you could do wrong, you raise them the way you were raised, you teach them the way they should be taught, you discipline them the way they need to be disciplined. There is nothing you could have done to make it better or worse we chose you to be there mom we had a connection that just kept telling us you were the one and no one else was going to give us that feeling of relief, because you had the qualities and things that we didn't have at that time. An open adoption just means they get to know two different kinds of parents, they will know you by the parents who loves them kisses them takes care of them makes sure they get ever cut and scrap kissed and I someone special in their lives.
Being a Birthmom is so special to me. Not only do i get weird looks from people saying you have a daughter? and that they would like to meet this wonderful girl and her family, but i tell everyone my amazing experience how i chose this family that i get pictures, and i get to be there for every Birthday, Christmas, and any other special occasion that they invite me too i have the best relationship with this family, that i could have ever dreamed possible sometimes i wish i was little and Shannon and Jeff adopted me i love them so much. * Shannon i want a pony too* :P and do i get to sleep in the room next to yours too* HEHE. There is one question i get the most from people and that is "Do you regret making this decision?" absolutely NOT!. Well why because there are people out there who have made the wrong decision by keeping there baby and are paying for it RIGHT now because they cant take care of themselves let alone take care of their child, and i wasn't going to be one of those people who struggled and watches their child struggle as well.

Hallie is where she needs to be, and the best part she is SEALED to her heavenly father & Parents for eternity, she is where she is today because of 3 people Shannon, Jeff, & I. She has been taken care of so well i couldn't ask for anything more.
I love you SWENSEN family. :)

Music Sociology to the MIND!

Picture came from Google Search:

I love Music. Music is stimulating to the brain. I have found that listening to music every morning gets my-self motivated and i usually get things done not only that, but it is calming, and i find I'm not in a grumpy mood. It is said that listening to the right song can change the way you feel everyday. So you listen to a sad song you are more likely to be in a sad gloomy kinda way, you listen to some hard core stuff you are likely to be aggressive and so forth i don't know if this is how it really is, but it makes sense. :)
Some fun Facts:
U2 with or with out you, came out the month and year of my birthday.
Lauryn Hill, Beverly Sills,& Kitty Kallen we share birthday.
Trivia:
What is the minimum number of musicians a band must have to be considered a "big band"?

A: **

Hint: Two numbers. last number being a zero.

Your Turn:

What kind of music do you like? Is music something you listen to everyday? Do you agree that certain music has some kind of impact on the way people feel? Who do you share a birthday with? Tell me all. :)

This is so CREEEPY!!!!!

I don't know what i was doing when i found this, but i have always been intrigued by the paranormal. I love watching Ghost Hunters, Paranormal State, Ghost Adventures etc... One day it would be a lot of fun to get a group of people & go investigating in a haunted house or some haunted place "Like Ted Bundies" My Sister has told me that place is pretty creepy. :) Be sure to mute my music at the bottom of my page. There isn't anyone talking in this video, but its better when you have the sound effects ya know.

Q: So do you believe in ghosts? Have you ever had some kind of encounter? What did you do? Do you like ghost stories i want to hear all about it. You don't have to be a blog user to answer to this one my comments are open to ALL!!! :)

Go and get there wonderful Salt Scrub and they Gently exfoliate and soften your skin, using healing mineral salt from the Great Salt Lake Basin, and avocado, sesame, apricot kernel, and jojoba oils. After a rinse, each scrub concludes with a luxurious moisturizing treatment.

Back To School

I can not Believe how fast this Summer has flown by. It feels like we have done nothing this summer to enjoy it, but really we have. We went Swimming, went to Lagoon, went Swimming, The park, birthday parties, Swimming, Movies,Swimming etc...., but this whole summer i think Kayden was more excited to start school then anything. :)
Kayden has started Kindergarten this year & so far loves it.
Last year when he was in Preschool there was not enough competition in the class so it was kind of boring to him, but this year he really has to use his noggin and loves it.
He loves his Teacher a lot, and gets along with the kids in his class, Yesterday when we went to pick him up from school, he says " guess what Mom & Dad i have a girl friend already and it has only been 2 days".
Chris tells him" WHAT you have a girl friend and we have not even met her yet". HA HA HA Kayden laughs.
Im really looking forward to see how Kayden progresses this year.
Before he started school, they had him take a test to see where he was at and what not he did pretty good tell he got to the number TWENTY then he just started guessing, but she said that was normal for some.
