First pictures

These are the very first pictures of Dakota Kayl, taken on March 10, 2005....before we knew she was a girl, before we knew her due date, when total chaos was going on because Natasha and Brad were separated and she was seeing someone else, (who according to Natasha started AFTER she and Brad were separated)...of course only Natasha and Randy (who is Dakota's father and Natasha's significant other and "roommate") will ever know for sure. I guess is adds up though, they separated in December, and Dakota was conceived in January...pretty close though, but I am rambling on. Anyway, Dakota and Allyssa are sisters and nothing is ever going to change that even if they do have different last names. You can raise you children the best way you know how and when they get older some of them are going to depart from their upbringing. I have 2 children that are doing just that. But I am sure that it will all work out in the end and there is no need for me to worry about it, they are adults and it just makes my life miserable trying to make it right....I love them just the same...OK enough of the sappy stuff.....

Here's looking at ya, kid.....

This picture was taken July, 2004, when Allyssa was 3 years old. She is such a funny girl. She loves the water. The other pictures taken with this one will show that fact. Today I went by Mom's house, (she keeps Dakota on Tuesdays and Thursdays all day and gets Allyssa at 2:30 when she gets out of school). I had to take Mom's sewing machine back to her. Yesterday I had told Allyssa when we were on our way home that I had something to show her when we got home, but instead I ended up having to drop them off by Natasha's work earlier than usual. We did not make it to our house. Today I asked her if she remembered that I had something I was going to show her yesterday and she said yes. I had a pair of jeans on that is one of my favorite pair. Right where the top of the pocket is sewn to the pants itself it has started a small hole and my lavender underwear was showing. I had to keep making sure that my shirt was down over it the whole day at work. I knew that Allyssa would get a kick out of "my underwear" showing so I was going to show her. So today I told her about it and she started laughing, saying "Nana, you are silly". Then when Natasha was leaving Mom's house with her and Dakota I had to go get an empty box out of my truck to put some glasses in that Mom had given me. I walked back up to the car with the box on my head and Dakota and Allyssa started laughing. Allyssa told me I was "crazy"!!!!!! She is such a silly girl, but at least I can make them laugh even on the "roughest" of my days!!!!! Love those two little girls..... I know it is hard on my Mom to watch the girls like she does. But I also know that she loves it and although it wears her out, she would not change it (maybe think about every now and then!!!!)

Watched House tonight. Right now it is all about House. I get a kick out of House's (Dr.) egotistically, arrogant, smart-tail comments that he makes. Not that I would want him for a doctor you would have to talk to, but for a doctor who can find out what is wrong with you, then I would want him for mine!!!!! Well, am kinda tired now, guess I will get ready to go to bed.
