>The One With All The Cleaning .... (And 1 less roommate!!)

>Weve had drama drama drama over the past couple of months. Our situation with our roommate reached an all new level and well, she no longer lives here. After a few yelling matches, 1 extremely dirty bedroom full of trash and evidence un-potty trained pet, 1 filty bathroom with a stopped up tub, and a visit from the local police, we are without a roommate. And we are so Thankful!!!! We treat our fur-babies like real children... So we expect someone living in OUR apt to treat their dog the same. Well at least feed it and take it out on a regualar basis would be fine too. Some people shouldnt be allowed to have pets or kids, ever. But now, all is said and done and we have a new bedroom and bathroom to decorate (all completely stripped and cleaned now!!!)

Aside from all that drama, weve been studying and taking care of the "kids". Kiwi and Mango are quite a hand-full. But we wouldnt trade them for anything in the world. Kiwi, our older chihuahua, enjoys a laid back day with lots of naps in our bed, on the couch, or her bed. Mango, our little one, loooooooooves to be wherever Kiwi is, especially if its in her bed. He loves to run around in her bed (her bed is really big for their size and alot bigger than him!), sleep in her bed, or bring all his toys in there and chew on everything. Kiwi tolerates this behavior from him as long as he stays somewhat still. The moment he starts running or "digging" in her bed, shes out. She comes looking for us as if to say, "Mom!!! That brat is in my bed again!!!" Hahahahaha oh the simple joys of our house.

>And then there were 4 ;)

We got a new puppy!! His name is Mango!!

>Valentine's Day at Hilton Head Island, SC

>

Jessica surprised me and took me away to Hilton Head. She planned everything and we left shortly after her basketball game on Saturday. We arrived at the gorgeous Crowne Plaza Resort on Hilton Head Island and omg.. it was perfect. She booked the Ocean Sunrise view room, the view was amazing. She also planned breakfast at the hotel :) My favorite meal is always BREAKFAST. Although, on the ride down it was quite obvious that I was coming down with her cold/pneumonia from last week. (Hopefully I'll just have the cold part!)Anyways, I had a massive headache and was barely hungry. =/ I still hate that I didnt eat much! lol .... But I was determined to have a good day and we did!! We ventured around the town, shopping and taking tons of pictures. We went to the Harbor Town Lighthouse. I think there was 144 steps and my legs HURT nooow. But it was worth it. We decided to skip having a fancy dinner and just shop, so we ate a our favorite burger place "Five Gu.ys" YUMMO!! Nothing made me feel more married to her than being on a romantic night away and us missing our furbaby more than anything. lol Oh! and the looks on the peoples faces at the hotel when they seen us coming/leaving was priceless!

HAHA... While we were shopping the guy employee was offering to help us all through the shoe store. Asking if we found everything ok and making small talk with Jess about where we were from, when I wandered away to look at more shoes ;) To keep us from waiting in line, guy of course opens up his register for us. Poor guy started asking a million questions like what brought us to Hilton Head, where we stayed, what all we had seen in the town... and then.. as if he mustarded up all the courage he could, he said "Im not wrong to assume yall are a couple right?" Yes, Yes we are.
He especially loved when I gave a card to pay, as he asked for I.D, Jess had to show hers. Because Yes I have a card with her name on it... He said "well guess u can sign, I'm sure youre used to signing for her card =)" Yes Sparky I am. :D

>Snow Day =)

>This has been crazy with midterms and studying non-stop!! Last night, my history exam had me so nervous and sick, I didnt think I would survive. I did manage to take the test and actually feel good about it. After the test, I got me some dinner and sat in our bed to relax before diving into hardcore biology study time. Jess was away at a game, that I unfortunately had to miss because of my study history test =/ (but they won!) So I started studying and then it happened. The severe winter storm newscast was shutting schools down left and right for most of GA! Woohoo! Unfortunately, nothing ever happens in our little college town so I assumed everywhere but here would be covered in snow and I would HAVE to take my biology exam. I studied till Jess got home, checked our emails hoping for a cancel notice.. but nope.. no such luck. So we went to sleep.. and prayed for snow!! =)
And... this morning, nothing. No Snow. Jess checked her email again, nothing. So she dressed, put Kiwi in bed with me, and left for class. (She always leaves before me) I layed there, mentally studying my flashcards I had memorized, when IT happened. A text message that said "No Classes Today =)" Woohoo!! I jumped out of bed and sure enough my classes were all cancelled!! YAYYYYY!! I only wished at this point that Jess' school was cancelled too. Although, her school cancelled everything after 12... lame.. because she was done then!! And still nothing.. no snow.. anywhere. Just tv warnings scrolling saying it was coming. I so didnt care because I now have a 4 day weekend (monday is president's day= no school!) Then, around 4pm the snow arrived and covered everything in sight in just a few minutes. Our little town is now a gorgeous snow postcard ;)

>"The One With The Baby Names!"

>(Posted by Bake)

So I know I don't write blogs on here that often, but this subject is very close to my heart! Since I can remember, I have wanted kids. The same is to be said for my wifey. From the first time we talked to each other online the night we meet, baby names has been a topic of discussion. So after being together almost 2 years, we have came to the agreement of our children's names! So here they are. In the order of which they are born.

Boys
1) Preston Christopher (Christopher after her Brother)
2) Aiden Lucas ( Aiden from Sex in the City and Lucas from One Tree Hill)
3) Jordan Kane ( Jordan for her moms married name and Kane after my nephew)

Girls
1) Skyler Machelle ( Machelle after my sister and niece)
2) Peyton Elise ( Peyton from One Tree Hill and Elise after her niece)
3) Jesslyn Faith ( Jesslyn....after me)

Here's the funny part about 2 of these names. The very first time we ever talked online and I told her my name, she acted a little shocked like she couldn't believe that my name was in fact Jessica Lynn. When I asked why it was so strange that it was my name she told me that since she was little she always wanted her baby girl to be named Jessicka Lynn. (Yes I know her version has an extra letter in it but still...what irony). So that's where Jesslyn comes from! The second named that has significance to it is Skyler. When she asked me what I wanted my first daughter's name to be I told her Skyler. Again she thought I was joking. But no. I had loved this name ever since I can remember. And of course, so had she. And we even agreed on the spelling!

I know these 2 seemingly random facts about the two of us seem unimportant..But I believe that our conversation that night was the start of the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me. And to be honest, I think that night is when I started to fall in love with the woman of my dreams!

 

>"The one where they go back to school!"

>Tomorrow, class starts! We (me, Jess, and roomie) are D.R.E.A.D.I.N.G school tomorrow!! Jess and I have thoroughly enjoyed being together everyday with our chi-chi. I dont know how Kiwi is going to react to us leaving her alone! But on the bright side, the sooner we start... the sooner we'll be done!!

Today, we had planned to stay in the house all day, soaking up time together before school..(because that seriously how bad we are dreading tomorrow!!) however, it seems we left more today than ever before. lol We decided to order chinese when we woke up around ..oh.. 1230pm.. :D but their delivery driver was out. so we ended up driving to get it. Then Jessica's car wouldnt start, so we had to go borrow jumper cables, then drive it and get gas.. and then go get candy.. and so on. So much for lazy day in the house. :) We did however manage some time to unlock several objects/courses on Mar.io Ka.rt Wi.i!!

Guess its time to get books and notebooks together and wash some clothes!!

>Fight-Fight-Fight

>I dont know whats been going on lately. All we've been doing the first days of the new year is FIGHT! Weve been fighting about everything.... money, living space, cleaning and so on. We even argued at 6 am yesterday because one of us (Jess! lol), was hot and slinging covers around on the bed. And of course, me being the bitch I am was pissed when she woke me up for the second time.. ahhh so so petty. LOL. We're just going to chalk it up to "HORMONES". Our monthlys are like four days apart so our moods are out of control. We're better now as all loving couples eventually end up being.. However, I believe I got some really bad advice. Someone, a friend, read my status on face.book, and texted me to see if everything was ok. Now my status was simply: " .. is so over 2010.. seems like this will be a year of fighting". HELLO! I was in a bad mood. So this person says to me-- "Why dont yall just break up?! All yall do is fight!!" W.T.F. First of all, everyone argues. We live together and spend almost every waking moment together. Which on a normal day is fine cuz we also BFF. Id rather hang out with her than anyone else and vice versa. Of course, were gonna drive each other crazy. Right now, we dont even have school so were only apart when she goes to practice (2 hrs a day). I was just like "Are you f***ing kidding me?!" Anyways....

On Monday, we go back to school. BLAAAHHHH!! Which were both dreading. Jess never wants to start school so this is normal for her, but Im always ready to go back so I can get it over with. I dont know why this quarter is so different. Maybe its the time of year... its cold! And I love it being cold as long as Im snug in the bed with my love and my chi chi. =)

ahhh school = 4 days.
