On the ick note, Randy finally got the support paperwork that states he has to pay $7,200 or something similar for spousal support to his ex wife. It’s at my parent’s house but we’re going to get it this weekend when we go over. We will be sending the absolute minimum possible per week, especially considering circumstances. It’s a messed up situation all over that never should’ve even occurred but NY is stupid like that. We have each other and our daughter. That’s something she can never have influence over.

So onto bigger and better things. Pictures are Monday at 3:30. Depending on sitting fee costs, I may consider family portraits if possible but who knows. I’ve never had professional pictures done before and they’re mad expensive from what I’ve seen. We have her little dress all picked out and everything. Winter has finally hit and I am NOT enjoying it. It’s cold, it’s wet, it’s windy/rainy/snowy. Welcome to December.

Here is a video of Gracie talking for a full 30 seconds. She was sitting on the couch, toppled over, and this is what she had to say about the whole thing.

I got weighed today at WIC and I am at 287. I was 316 before I delivered. Is anyone calculating here? I lost 29lbs in 2 weeks. That is freakin AWESOME for me. I was 290 when I got the positive pregnancy test. I’m proud and can’t wait to pull out my tote of “clothes I stored away when I was pregnant and depressed about only fitting into PJs and sweats”. Those are getting dug out Saturday. I also am going to buy a new pair of jeans from LB probably to celebrate. I have a ton of weight to lose still obviously but it’s good to know everything I gained was baby.

I’ve been doing much better since the initial depression I suffered when I first came home. I will admit I hit a very low point where I wanted nothing to do with her or anybody. It felt awful to admit to anyone but I’ve adjusted a bit more to the routine of things. Randy had court today for his last ticket he obtained before going to prison. Altogether with his 3 tickets (2 driving w/o a license, 1 DWI) the fines we have left to pay are $860 but that’s not bad at all for the charges he’s got. Hopefully he will have his license back around Jan/Feb so I can stop being a taxi. I also don’t fancy the idea of taking a newborn out every day 2x a day in the winter.

Colby is doing very well. His swelling went down, the bullets are lead but unless they’re in his intestines they’re not damaging, and his broken foot is in a splint for 6 weeks. He’s a good little hopper and can even take the stairs but jumping onto the bed is a task he likes to whine as us for. His 55lb butt is not fun to lift, let me tell you.

My birthday was Sunday. I didn’t do anything. I got $20 from my grandma and my mom watched Gracie overnight and all day Saturday which was a good enough present for me. Randy said he didn’t know what to get me and this week money was tight due to Colby so in a week or so I’m hitting up Newegg and spoiling myself with either a new HD or a 23 inch flat panel. My 19 inch isn’t cutting it so much anymore.

It seems like the blogging world has been quiet lately, what’s going on new with anybody?
