Posted by on Nov 12, 2000 in 6- Kylan & Kaleb | 0 comments

I hate that I don’t get to see him much… I love him to death – he’s so precious! I can hardly wait until Barry gets visitation. He isn’t my son but I feel that he is a part of our family because he is Barry’s son…

Oh, and Barry and I have set a date to get married on July 14 of next year at 2pm at Shady Grove. I CAN’T WAIT!!!

I got a job and Briyana started at Mt Carmel today… she had a lot of fun. I came to get her and she was just playing away! She is so smart- even her teacher said that after being with her for one day- I was so proud of her!

How confusing can things get?

Posted by on Sep 20, 2000 in 6- Kylan & Kaleb | 0 comments

Barry and I have had a rocky few days… just found out he is going to be a father again. He wasn’t exactly ‘being still’ while we weren’t together this summer. Kara called me on Barry’s cell phone when I had it to let me know to tell him that she is about 4 months pregnant again. It’s something we have SLOWLY decided to work through (due to me freaking out and him groveling, but hey who’s keeping score?)… I decided to get back with him knowing that he’d been staying with her… and he decided to get back with me knowing I had been dating… and I can’t exactly be upset about what was going on when we were split up (even if I managed to not “do” anything while we were split up, but again… who’s keeping score?). It’s hard to swallow but we’ve been spending more time together- just laughing and having fun together… it’s wonderful to FEEL the love between us… and then up pops this and it’s like last year all over again… I just can’t let all of this go… there’s nothing greater than the feeling of family to me. I never had that feeling… my father was never there, and I don’t want that for Maya! I have this burning question in my mind if I’m making a huge mistake though. I mean, really, is this going to be an annual thing for him? Maybe I’m an idiot. I don’t know. Time will tell… we’ll see how it works out. Kara told me she knows I’ll be stupid and stay with him anyway. Um… call me crazy, I’m sure a lot of people would handle this differently, but of the two of US, I’m the stupid one? Funny.

My baby is growing up…

Posted by on Sep 17, 2000 in 1- Briyana Amaya | 0 comments

bribabypic-24Amaya made 7 months on the sixth! She is doing so many new things! She says Dada and waves goodbye! She gives kisses and LOVES to be tickled! She likes to look in the mirror and dance! Yes, DANCE! Tonight, she stood up by herself for the first time at 7:20pm! She sticks her tongue out all the time which is adorably hilarious! She smiles every time someone looks at her… Barry and I are getting closer again, and I can tell things are settling down between us. We spend quality time together and he says the sweetest things to me. It makes me feel like I am in heaven. You can tell Maya just eats it up when we are all together… I can’t explain it but it’s great!

Briyana and Kylan finally met!

Posted by on Sep 17, 2000 in 1- Briyana Amaya, 6- Kylan & Kaleb | 0 comments

And, yes, I did say “met” – this is the first time they’ve seen each other, and it wasn’t due to Kylan being “allowed” either. Was purely coincidence. In any event, it was SO nice and SO sweet.

Briyana is 7 months and Kylan is 10 months

We went to KJ’s first birthday party (Quintena’s son) and Barry’s mom had Kylan there so we took this picture on the back of the car :) Isn’t that so sweet!?

BriBabyPic-24Wowwww… Briyana can stand up by herself UNsupported {as of 9/10 @ 9:20pm} and she plays by herself for pretty good stretches of time. She turned 7 months old on the 6th of this month and went to church for the first time {also on the 10th}. She did SO well for her first time. She didn’t get bored or frustrated and didn’t cry at all. :) She’s my little blessing baby!!
