baby growth

So, it has been a while!

So, I have not kept my word in that I was going to try and make this a routine to keep all of my beloved friends updated on my side of the world!  Well, I have some time, although, I should be sewing a few things right now, but I would rather sit my big ass on the recliner,ice my plantar facaitis, blog, and watch a movie while it is 12 degrees, zero with the windshield outside!  My Lovie is sleeping and hubby watching ufc and Jett at grandma's.  But, I am tired, I can barely keep my eyes open, so I will get started!
Jett is hopefully getting over his terrible 3's and heading into fabulous 4!  He is a smart butt and is just smart in general.  His preschool teacher said that he could actually skip a grade, I was seriously considering it when a whole week he came home, screaming at the top of his lungs constantly.  I asked him why he thought that he can scream all the time and he said that another kid in his class does it.  Well, I went into his class for a Halloween party and yes, the kid is off the wall, but Jett helps him all the time and he is Jett's friend!  LOL  So, I have to explain that it is not acceptable and that I don't want to hear it again, ya, how stern I am!!  LOL  I am blessed that Jett is a pretty bright kid.  He is able to make sentences in spanish and know what spanish speakers are talking about, grandpa is teaching him how to play the guitar, and then just the general everyday things that he excells in.  I just can't believe he will be 4. 
Lovie is a hoot!  She finally started walking at 13 months and then teeth.  She teethed like no other starting around 4 months and after a long while got her 2 bottom teeth.  Since then, she has only protruded her "I" teeth, yes her vampire teeth!  I have never seen a kid grow this set of teeth first and we all call her "vampira."  She is little miss thang that loves her brother but will try to bite him or hit him if he pisses her off!  She loves to listen to music and sing, at times she hums to put herself to sleep.  She likes to eat, play wheels on the bus, play peek a boo, itsy bitsy spider.  She is a busy body with vampire teeth!
Me, well I am really enjoying my job, these catholic kids I think are onrier than public school kids but smarter than s**t!  I really enjoy praying 12x a day and going to church twice sometimes 3 times a week.  We did just get word that the school is on a budget freeze and they will not get rid of any teachers next year so I am grateful to have a job.  I don't mind driving 2 hrs a day, the kids are taken great care of my parents.  
Donnie and I well, let's say, it takes a lot of growing up, courage, and mercy. 
Enjoy the photos, I will try and keep updated!

Summer 2010











Well friends, I have been away for quite some time but with good intentions. I have finally completed my Masters and am very proud of myself! Lovie is going to be 9 months and is a hoot! She is starting to lose her cheeks, but they are still good size! About a week ago, she finally pushed out her first tooth. Thank goodness, we went threw several months of slobber! My Jett is not fully potty trained and heading to pre-school in Pittsburg with momma. I got released from my teaching position due to budget cuts again in Louisburg and now will be at a private catholic school that is 45 min east of where I live. I think that I will be there for more than two years. I will be head softball coach and will be coaching jr. vball. and teaching spanish. I am very excited. I went to college at pitt and loved it there!

Lovie Marie Cosby

Jett was not sure what to think of his sister. But he held her.
lots of cheeks!

Lovie is sensitive to the good smelling J&J lotions. She is following in her brother's footsteps. Lovie and The Jett are laying in my hospital bed watching T&J!


You can tell the allergy reaction to the lotion. Her whole body is blotchy red! poor girl! Look at those cheeks!




Sorry this was as soon as I could get pictures out. I could not keep anything down due to the spinal tap. This c section, I was not shaking like crazy and I felt a little more pressure and the doctors pushing and pulling my innards everywhere. I did get nauseated, my mouth was full of saliva and the anethesiologist ended up giving me a small dose of sleeping cocktail to get me through the rest of the surgery. It helped! I took morphine this time and was itching like crazy, especially around my mouth like i was a drug addict! Lovie fially ate at 2:30am. I got to watch 3 episodes of Three's Company, awesome! i finally ate some crackers at 4:30am. I was starving. This mornings breakfast was great! The shower felt amazing! i feel pretty good!
Ifelt tons better after taking a shower this morning

34 weeks and counting down!!!



My cooch hurts terribly and I am having those braxton hicks contractions. I have to complain, because I never felt these with Jett. I am terribly uncomfortable when I sleep, walk, and sit!!


Luckily, I have this terrible pain with the second and last child!


I am trucking along spending Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday in Olathe and Wednesday and Friday in KC. Wednesdays I also go to Pittsburg for class! Jett has been doing great going back and forth between Donnie and I. I believe he actually knows what is going to happen when we bring home his sister. He looks at babies when we are out and about and he says "awww like my sister!" He also prays for her at night which is toooo cute.
I am 34 weeks measuring 34 weeks. I just gained 4 lbs in 2 weeks with a total of 14lbs thus far. Jett came at 37 weeks so, I am thinking she will too!!
I found out last week that the short term disability for my new district is not covering my pregnancy, since it is a pre existing condition,,,I think that it is a crock of S$@^! I am bumbed a bit because when you think you are caught up in money, you fall right back and can not see to get out!!! I will not be able to be with the baby as long as I would have liked! I tried to pay for extra on my old STD but the company would not allow it! Needless to say, I have tried everything and nothing is going the way I would like!!

I can not wait to meet this burrito, she is head down and poking me every minute!!! She sticks her butt up and you can literally see it, it hurts too!!


My new school has pretty good kids, I have not had a bad or stressed out day with them yet, knock on wood, I wonder if I will remember their name when I get back from leave???? LOL

Well, well, well

Donnie and Jett. Jett actually fell asleep, I went to the store and missed the passed out Jett.

Quinten and the Jett

OK, so it has been awhile!! I am pregnant, did not know if I ever put that on here. I am 31 weeks, and supposedly having a girl. Thanks to Aurora, I have some clothes to start off with. I also, have this awesome blanket that she gave me, I really think she should be Mexican.
Anywho, I had 2 online classes this summer towards my masters. The first class in June was easy, although, I had to hand in a portfolio, that was tons of writing. I also had watched my nieces and one of my friends girls during the day. Needless to say, it only lasted through June. I can not handle being pregnant and summer together!!
July, I had a hard ass time consuming class. This professor meant it when he wrote it is like you are in 3hrs of class and then at least 3hrs a day of work!! He was right. I have never made an 80 slide power point before in my life!! I hope I will never have to again!!
I feel like this is my only free week before I start school. I start Aug. 10 this Monday, and I am kinda excited. I am once again a head coach and teaching spanish. A little rusty at both, but am ready!! I will be living part time at my sister's in Olathe, which is 30 min. from my job and part time in Chanute. I will do my maternity leave in Chanute. We will share Jett everyother weekend or every two weeks!!
As for the baby, I have a sonogram tomorrow, going to make sure she is still a she. I have a scheduled csection on Oct 8th, regular due date is the 15th. I think she will come early, this little girl can hit, kick and punch. Jett was due on Feb. 15th and he came Jan. 25th. Great possiblity!! I am at 2 weeks to the doc!
I will try to do my best to keep up on my blog for you guys. I have been reading you alls, just not posting on mine!!

Peanuts

Thanks for all the replies. I am glad that I did not have to do the scratching of skin and or taking blood! I would suggest trying this type of alternative medicine first.
Needless to say, I was not sure if Jett was allergic to peanuts because I have just stayed away from them and peanut butter.
We were at a birthday dance, you know us Mexicans, we still party when we are 85! Anyways, I had peanuts on my plate and before I knew it, Jett grabbed one. He had eaten it before I could get it out of his mouth. He started coughing a little, I thought he was getting a little choked up and then he got some red dots around his mouth, and then his eyes were itchy(I could not tell if it was from all of the icing that had transfered from his fingers to his hair). Prior to this, Jett was a dancing maniac. Well, he would not let go of me, so when he told me his tummy hurt, i immediately went home. We got home and I gave him a shot of Benedril and about 5 minutes later he puked.
So, off to Joplin we go again!! I probably will not go till school is out, that is 4 more weeks!! My friend just took her son today, he is 4, and he is allergic to lots of things. Mainly milk, cheese and nuts. Anyways, they had Monica take some air from her house. They told her to vaccum and leave a jar open and then close it and bring it in. Gabe was not allergic to any house particles, but definitley all the other things. He told her that usually if they are allergic to milk, they are allergic to peanuts!! I wish he would have told me that! Watch Austin, Ryann!


More pictures to come!!

Not Enough Time in the World

Jett and I at Shananigans in TX.

Look at this approach. Jett loves bowling.
Jett and dad at their best!



Jett and dad watching wrestling.


You can't see that well, but Jett is in his wrestling stance. Ready to go!



I feel real bad that I have just abandoned my blogger friends!! Since the last post 2 months ago, a lot has gone on.
The one thing that I would like to blog, is my spring break. Well, I did nothing except for working on projects for my masters, playing with Jett, and softball practice.
Jett had been allergic to milk(dairy products), eggs, and chocolate. The last weekend in February, I was in Salina watching my cousin at State wrestling. I had mentioned to my cousin that I had scheduled an appointment at Children's Mercy to get Jett tested for allergies. One lady budded into our conversation, which was fine, and said that her friend went to this allergy doctor that is a chiropractor and he made some adjustments and she had been fine. So, I ask her if she could give me her number so that I can call this DR and see what this is all about! By that Monday, I had his number. His name is Gary Parker. His practice is in Joplin, MO. I had talked to his secretary, that was not so bright on insurance, was able to tell me the procedure. We get there and there were a couple people ahead of us. My sister and niece went with me, because my sister said it sounds too good to be true. Well, the people that were there in the waiting room were there for adjustments, not allergies, so we could not ask them questions.

We get in. Dr. Parker has hundreds of viles of allergens and he makes sure what Jett is allergic to and then gets those viles. He has me sit on the table and has me hold the vile in my left hand while I am holding out my right hand. Dr. Parker then tries to push my right arm to the floor and he can't. He does this with every vile and I resist. Next he sets Jett on my lap and has Jett hold the viles and has me still put out my right arm. If I resist, Jett is not allergic, if I don't he is allergic. Low and behold, I could not resist the pushing what so ever!!! While Jett was still holding the vile, Dr. Parker took this 25mm vibrating gun and did 3 adjustments to his back. He did this with all three viles.
Under 5 minutes Dr. Parker said that Jett had two problems in the adrenal gland and one in the kidney. It totally made since to me because, you know the tags on Jett's ear, well when he was an infant we had to go get his kidneys scanned twice to make sure nothing was wrong with them. When the ears grow the kidgneys do to, so it totally made sense. My sister was sold then! Dr. Parker said to not feed him those things for 24 hrs. and then after that he can eat away. Christina got in at 2:30 that day. When we got there, the waiting room was full. Yes, allergy people!! So, we talked and one lady had two sheets of things that she was allergic to, just from being tested prior to finding this witch doctor. She was from St. Joe, MO and she said that her friends had no more than 3 allergies and they are doing great now. Dr. only does several at a time, so she has to keep coming back until she is finished. Another man sitting beside us was from California and had read about him in an article and thought he would bring his family to Branson while he came here to try this Dr. He was refusing to get put on shots again. Another lady was from Corpus Christie, TX. Her sister had heard about him through a friend and said she wanted to try it. By this time, Christina is pumped up.
Christina had 3 major things that she was allergic to, one being ragweed. Which is really bad around our area but not til fall. Another big one, was dust mites. Dr. had her lay down and placed the viles on her tummy. Like for trees, she knew that she was allergic to trees, but did not know which ones and Dr. just put the whole draw of different trees on her tummy and eliminated the tree viles. So, she got adjusted and she said right away she could feel a difference when she walked out.
My sister actually slept through the night and was not sniffling at all. She got up the next morning and one of her nostrile was clear and the other a little stuffed, but towards the day, she was great!! The next day, she felt awesome and still does to this day.
Jett, is a cake eating, egg eating fool!! He has not broke out what so ever!! Jett actually had a whole slice of cheese pizza at Chucky Cheeses. I had tried to stay away from that place because of Jett's allergy problem and now, we can go as much as we want!!
My niece and nephew also got adjusted later that week and they are not miserable!!
I give my props to this guy!! He is an old fella and is getting ready to retire soon. I am going in the summer to get me fixed, I believe I am allergic to dust mites and mold. Possibly some smoke.
Dr. says that right away, mother's bring in their newborns and gets them adjusted, I am considering it with my next kid.
Poisen ivy is the only allergen that you have to go every year to get adjusted. He does not have a website, just an email. He does take insurance. There is a first anitial visit fee and then $15 an allergen adjustment. My bill was only $125 for Jett.
I don't have any pics of the adjustments or any of actual photos of Jett eating cheese or cake, but it is for reals!!
