Tuesday, October 17, 2006

Soooo i decided not to do the CNA classes because unlike the other classes that start in Nov, the next one doesnt start until mid-December. So instead i am getting a certificate in Medical Coding and Billing...it is all done online so i can do it at home while isabelle sleeps and says it takes about 586 contact hours (hours actually on the comp) and then you have to spend more time reading the txt books and studying...a little nervous cuz i have to do A&P 1 and 2, medical terminology and a bunch of stuff...but it's $1,000 and free since the program is paying for it so i gotta work my butt off!
Other thing is that i went to get the paper voucher from the program im working with today, and they couldnt give me it because Health and welfare still have my benefits pending (so i still havt received any financial help AND cant start my classes until they release my benefits which was supposed to happen Oct 5th!!!!! As you can tell, its taking forever....and as you can tell, we're both getting tired of waiting!

Just chillen like a pimp





Well nothing new...i am starting my CNA classes early november which will be good! Brian just recently decided to write an email, asking if he bought us a plane ticket if id bring her to visit....I am debating it. I want to see kylee, kelli, all of you! It would be oct 24th till the 29th if i even decide to come. He hasnt actually even called about it and never responded to my email so im thinking he probably, as usual, wanted to be a dad for one second and now he probably is "too busy". However, im tempted to say " ummm you say you have no money to help out but you can afford a plane ticket? How about instead you send some of that money to actually help support your daughter!" Dumbass.......

so this is our decoarted halloween house!!

What we've been up to

all these pictures are from today! Oct 10th 2006


Well...nothing is really new. This weekend we hung around the house as usual. I still am doing all the cleaning, helping with dinner, and taking care of the isabelle while my my brothers get away with doing nothing...but of course contribute to making all the messes. We watched some football with my brother and watched a little of "Fear dot com". What i saw of the movie was pretty creepy, a little gross, but interesting so i want to see how it ends...ill let everyone know if its good!

Yesterday (monday) we went to my friends parents house to visit. My friend stephanie is gone at school, and i think her parents miss having all of us girls over there so they invite me and isabelle for dinner every once in a while. Yesterday me, isabelle, and jennifer (
stephanies mom) went on an hour walk which was nice. Jennifer is the funniest lady ive ever met....when we'd all get ready to go party she used to make us all go to the living room, every time, for a meeting to make sure we would be safe, and go over the "no zones" which was anything below your hips and above the belly button! She just cracks me up.

After the walk isabelle stayed with them for about an hour while i went to my dr aptmnt (postpartum check up). Everything is good! I am getting an IUD since my medicaid covers it...its 99% effective, 100% hormone free, can stay in for 10 years, and when you chose to take it out fertility comes back immediatly....soooo basically ill be on birth control now that im not ever going to be having sex, dates, or anything and by the time i am and i have even met anyone, ill probably need a new one lol :)

Today we are going to my weekly meeting with SL Start. Hopefully she'll have the info for my CNA classes and i can start doing that. I meet with them starting next week every monday at 2:45, and then have to call to check in every tuesday, weds, thursday, at 2:45, plus keep my daily pa
renting journal. Along with that i have my dr apt the 18th, a WIC apt the 19th, and then isabelle has her dr apt for immunizations the 31st. I have to take a bunch of stuff into health and welfare that they just called and told me about because the said they'd "fallen behind' with stuff so i still have not received any cash and wont until all of this is taken care of, which i have to wait to receive in the mail. I havnt talked to Brian since his b-day september 20th. He never has answered any of my calls or emails. He called last thursday finally and left a message saying he was seeing how isabelle was doing. I called him back last night to tell him everything was fine, in a message of course because he doesnt answer my calls...let him know he doesnt need to call anymore, that were fine and happy. I just dont want to put up with someone who treated me like crap, wont even be my friend, and then calls one day every month or so when he feels like being a dad, for one day, and then i dont hear from him again until about another month or so when the daddy gene kicks back in for a few seconds. oh well.

Amber- baby stuff

So i have read a million different things about breast feeding...some say you can have two cups of coffee a day, some say you can have 5, but no more than five...everything gives charts and different perspectives about drinking (like feed her, have a beer, then it'll take about 2 hours for it to leave your breast milk so when you feed her again she wont be exposed to any alcohol at all...and then others say if you are having more than two drinks, just make sure to have enough bottles pumped so that she can eat, and you need to wait about 6-8 hours till its completly out of your breast milk...) So how in the world do you know what is true?
Well with all that, my main question is storing it. The pump i bought said that milk can be stored in the fridge for 4 days and frozen for 4 months...but in one of my books it says store it in the fridge for only 48 hours and depending on your freezer you can only freeze it between 2 weeks or up to 6 months if your freezer is at 0 F. SOOO how in the world do i even know how long to store it? My pump directions were totally different than the book i have, and it didn't mention anything about storing depending on the type of fridge (1 door, 2 door). What the heck!

Our Pad

So this is our little room! It took a while to get it all cute..especially since i had to un-pack and get everything organized about 2 weeks after she was born....exhausting! But it turned out pretty cozy...and as you can see, she likes it!
