Proud To Be American!

Yeah, I did it. Ok, some of you may think that I'm a freak, but I have only voted one other time than today. It was the first time Bush ran, and Yes, I voted for him.
Anyway, I wanted to express my pride and pat myself on the back for taking my God given right and using it!
I have been in a prayer ALL day today. I know, it's only a bit after 9am, but I've been up since 4:25am, that's a LONG time!
While I was driving in to work this morning, Air1 was talking about the election and something just fell over me and I began to cry and just pray for our country. Then after I got off of work and was heading over to my polling station I began to cry and pray some more. This is a HEAVY year for elections, no matter what side you are voting for.
The state of California has a few ballots up that are really going to effect the outcome of our children.
First and foremost
The future of our children rely on your YES vote. I won't get into ALL of my views on this, but just knowing that the vows of a marriage are made to be between a man and a woman says it all. Not to mention that God created Man and from Man was created Woman. If it was intended to be something different, then it would have been.










Secondly~ Proposition 4 http://www.yeson4.net/default.aspx
I want to know why in the world ANY adult, that would be a parent, would even put into act something that wouldn't allow you to know what is going on with your child. Especially having an abortion behind you back!?!?!
Anyways, I've done my part, now go out and do yours!
I pray that the Lord's Will is done during this election and NO MATTER WHO is put into office, I pray that the Lord's hand be upon him!

My Election Day Baby

My election day baby girl turned 10 years old today. She is such a good girl! I never thought I would get over those days that she whined and cried all the time, but I did!
She still has her days, but that just makes her who she is, and she is definitely a girl!
I had to go to court with my mom early this morning, so the kids stayed home from school. When I got home she was ready to go to school. She seemed to have a good day when I picked her up.
We all went home and put groceries away and I began to cook and clean.
She requested Chinese food, so I made Egg Drop Soup and Chicken Fried Rice with Fortune Cookies and Apple Dump Cake for desert. It was all VERY YUMMY!
James & Devin came over and had dinner with us (Gail was sick and Sarah just didn't come).
It was all in all a very nice day for her.
She had a visit from Bill & Karen who brought her a card with 5 $2 bills (this is a tradition of Karen's for the kids) and a really nice shirt.
Then Mona came over and gave her some mula as did Jodi.
I totally forgot to give her our present with everything else going on. So just before bed I put her outfits on my bed and had her come see them.
Jose and I got her 2 outfits. One is a Limited Two Sweater with a pair of Levis and the other is another pair of Levis with a Hannah Montana purple top with a Hannah Montana Boys Cap, scarf & gloves that all match.
So Happy Birthday My Baby Girl!!!
Mama Loves You!!!

Halloween Pics

So after yesterday's post, I was VERY bummed I wasn't going to be able to have a camera to take pics. Well, I called my Sister In Law and asked her if I could use hers until I got mine fixed (she isn't a pic taker like me) and she let me use it...YAY!!!!
So, here are pics of Halloween...
Ant & I painted my belly like a pumpkin




The end result...

Dominic & the Baby as pumpkins :)

Devin & Dominic

After T&T we went to a friends house from church and helped out. Here is a pic of Bob

Anthony put Smarties on the eyes of my pumpkin and I had a glowing thing in my belly button

My cute little boy

Ant & Me

My Honey & Me


I just realized I don't have a pic of Adriana. She was a construction worker.
The night was LOTS of fun, but MAN was I in pain!!! My back and pelvic bone was KILLING me just after an hour of walking. Devin's little legs were hurting him & Dominic was done. Not to bad for being 3 & 4 year olds out walking.

I am SO bummed!

I just got the bill to fix my refrigerator. It is going to cost us $155 to get it fixed. WHAT!?!?!
Jose found the part for just under $15, these people are a rip off! I am praying Jose can figure out how to fix it. We had to pay them $35 just to come out...IDIOTS!
Then I did an estimate for my camera to get fixed and that is going to cost me $149!
I am SO bummed!!!!
I can't go without a refrigerator, but my life involves my camera so much!
I couldn't even take pics of the kids carving the pumpkins last night, I can't take pics of my kids tonight dressed up for Halloween, nothing!
With the baby coming, I have to have my camera!
What am I going to do!?!
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
If you have any suggestions on what to do with my camera situation, I would really appreciate it!
Otherwise you are more than welcome to wallow in my pain with me.

Happy Halloween

This is my picture for the holiday, because my camera finally kicked the bucket yesterday... :(
We carved our pumpkins yesterday afternoon. Dominic didn't want anything to do with it at first. He couldn't stand the feel of it, but after Jose working with him and showing that it's not that nasty, he was fine. Dominic & Jose carved the pumpkin that Adriana drew out and then Anthony carved his own pumpkin.
They both came out really cute!
Today I have to do a K-Mart run to get some orange paint for my belly and pick up Dominic's costume from Gail.
Then tonight we will be going out Trick or Treating and then heading over to one of our friend's house to help with the candy hand out for our church outreach.
I am very excited! I love Halloween, it's just so much fun!!!
Hopefully I will make it through the night. I have been feeling sick and heaviness in my chest. I really think it's my allergies that are moving down into my chest...BOOOO
Anyway,,,I hope you have a wonderful holiday!

Recent Scores

Well, yesterday must have been a day of blessings.
I have recently found a group called Freecycle (new to me, old to others). What Freecycle is, is a group of people that posts things that they are trying to get rid of, instead of throwing it away or selling & people post things that they need.
Well, on Monday I went and picked up 2 older dressers that had been sitting outside of a house that someone was trying to get rid of. Well, I am in the process of re-finishing them and changing them into dressers for Dominic & Baby D.
Well, here I will just cut and paste. Makes it easier for me, and you can just read it all out...
I have been SO stressed over things for the baby, it's not even funny!
Anyways, I have been praying that the Lord will bless us with things that we need, not what we want.
Well, my friend told me about a local Freecycle (never knew they existed) and so I joined.
Monday night I went and picked up 2 really nice dressers. They are only 3 drawers, but one will be used for Dom and the other will be used for the baby.
They needed to be cleaned (DONE!) and I have to sand parts down and repaint them, but they are perfect & I can customize them to what *I* want
Then I saw a post the other day

Infant sling. This is the kind you wear around your body to craddle your infant. New Fisher Price Baby Monitor w/Receiver in the box. Never used. Would like to give these to someone who really needs them. Please indicate in your email the day and time you can pickup. Will make a decision by tomorrow evening.

So I replied to the post

Hi Elisa, I saw your offer. I am going to have my 4th in January and unfortunately gave everything away from my last baby (not expecting to have another.) I was interested in your items. Also was wondering what type of a baby sling it was, I LOVE wearing babies. I think it is SO much better for them. Thanks for any response.

And this is what I found in my box yesterday

Hi!
I'm going to offer them to you. I just had my 4th (unexpected), so I know what's like getting rid of everything and start over.
The baby sling you wear around your body and you tuck your baby inside to carry with you. It's more for a new baby. If you're not interested in it, I could give it to someone else. I think it's very nice.
When could you come pickup?

Elisa

Yeah, I was SO excited that I posted on a board that I have been on since having Dom, just to share my excitement. Well, to my surprise, these were the responses:
Steph~"wow Melissa!! What a blessing!!
I'm so glad that God is providing thru unexpected sources for you and for this baby!!!
So do you seriously have NOTHING??
just the stuff that you've been given recently?? "

My reply~"I seriously have nothing.
Actually, a girl that works out at my work brought in a bag of 3-6 mos girl clothes, a pink & brown diaper bag and some funky toy that attaches to the car seat I am assuming.
My SIL bought a car seat for me from a yard sale (I posted about this a while back).
I have bought some baby soap, baby lotion, baby powder and a pack of onsies(those are all the onsies I have).
I have a friend giving me her son's crib and I plan on making my own bedding since it is so expensive.
That's it... "
AGAIN, not my intention to "whine", just answering a question. I am BLESSED to have what I do have now! Well, this is what I get next...

Jen~"melissa, that rocks!!! can you list other things you want/need, so i can keep an eye out on freecycle and stuff? you know i am the master at finding good deals "

My reply~"You can list what you want. I am still new and feeling it out, so really don't know.
It's a Yahoo group here for me.
Try looking it up. "

Jen~"OH no no melissa, you misunderstood, sorry i was clearer-i am a freecyle pro, been doing it since i was preg with mairi.

i want YOU to make a list for ME of the things YOU want and need for the baby So then I can keep an eye out locally for stuff, and then ship to you (I'll pay, I want to bless you!)

So make a list already "

Leah~"I wish I would have realized you needed some things, I would have held on to all the baby boy clothes I just gave away to someone else for you (until you had the baby-- to see if you need BOY clothes). I literally just gave away 6 big black trash bags FULL of baby boy clothes. I kept all of Slaydes things, I guess at the time I didnt realize the amount I actually had. Until I pulled them back out for Griffin.... I was totally overwhelmed and had to have my mom come over and help me sort through them all. I also threw out a baby monitor, and a basinett, and a wipe warmer (I didnt like it)."

Kelley~"Melissa, if you'd put the list on here I could watch freecycle and craigslist here for you. Plus sometimes Moms at my Preschool will offer stuff to me (for the preschool dept) and I'd be glad to send some good stuff your way!

Give us a wish list!!

Are you not finding out what you are having?? "

Can you say, 'Emotion Overload!?!' I am so set back by my dear friends (they are all across country, LIKE N.Y. & VIRGINIA!). They care SO much that they are willing to go out of their way to find me things for my baby and bless me.
WOW. Absolutely Speechless!
Thank You My Dear Friends!!!!! Off to grab the box of tissues again! I can't even bring myself to make the list, I am just SO overwhelmed!

Your willing to give what you have

Recently Jose & I have been having a time, if you don't know...Jose has been VERY slow on work! Times are tough, but we are continuing to stand on our promises and know we will get through.
Well, yesterday I had a friend call me and ask some questions. Here's what our conversation sounded like,
M~"So Melissa, do you have any paper towels?"
Me~"Yeah, I have a roll, why?"
M~"Can I have some?"
Me~"Well, I only have one roll, but I will give you some if you need some."
M~"Do you have any toilet paper?"
Me~"Yeah, I have a few rolls and a new package, why?"
M~"What kind do you have?"
Me~"I bought White Cloud this week."
M~"Can I have some?"
Me~"Yeah, how much do you need?"
M~"Do you have any laundry soap?"
Me~"Yeah, I have a bottle, why?"
M~"What brand do you like?"
Me~"I buy what's on sale."
M~"You don't buy a certain brand?"
Me~"No, I'm not too picky, especially being tight on money."
M~"Well, can I have some?"
Me~"Sure, how much do you need?"
M~"Do you have any Downy?"
Me~"No, I bought Suavetel this week, do you need some of that too?"
M~"Yeah."
Me~"Ok."
M~"Alright, I will be over after work to get it from you."
Me~"Well, tell me how much you need and I will have it all ready when you get here."
M~"Don't worry about it, I will let you know when I get there."
Me~"Alright, I will see you later then."
M~"Ok, bye."

So a few hours later, I was in my kitchen cleaning and getting everything ready for my brother's birthday dinner. Anthony yells, "Mom, 'M' is here!"
So I tell him to let her in and have her come to the kitchen.
She comes in, carrying 2 bags chuck full of stuff. I said,
"M, what are you doing!?!"
She replied, "Melissa, you have nothing and your are struggling, yet you are still willing to give me things that I might need. These are for you."
UGH, my heart about dropped! I know I have friends in my life who care, but WOW!
I'm not one to take hand outs, nor am I one to "whine" about my situation. I know the Lord will provide and I feel like I don't need to go around announcing my problems to everyone. But the Lord knows what we need, and as long as we are faithful and have a giving heart, I feel like He WILL bless us in return.
It's not what we say, it's what we do and what is TRULY in our hearts that matters the most.
So, Thank You 'M' & Praise You Father God!

Back In The Day

I know I have shared w/ a few select of my friends...
I used to rap. Yeah, little white girl-wanna be mexican-rapper.
My favorite was Queen Latifa & Da Brat.
Well, while I was out picking the kids up from school today they played a song that I used to rap to. It's Ahmad-Back In The Day
While listening to it and attempting to rap like back in the day, I started realizing the words and thinking, this guys sure is right. Here's a verse of the song:
"I miss those days, pouting like a jerk, wishing all I had to do now is finish homework. It's true, you don't realize what you got 'till it's gone...Sometimes I do sit and reminisce then think about the years I was raised, back in the day... "
Of course the video is being attached


OK, and so while I was on that page, I couldn't help but take myself back to 1 more song that YES, I used to rap to. Here they are, I hope they take you back too...
Skee-Lo I wish
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xtcy-PWCHvw

OH, and I found my "inspiration" song!!!! I almost got into a fight w/ some little punks while walking to the store. My best friend, Janis and I were walking and a couple of little boys called me the *B* word.
Well, I took the words that The Queen used and said, "Who you calling a *B*!?!" and perused to get in their faces. Those boys were not about to disrespect me and it was all because of what The Queen said! No, I didn't fight them, someone heard my big mouth and came to my rescue. I don't know what would have happened, but this girl was NOT about to take anything from any boy. I saw too much growing up and I was not about to be treated the same way.
Now that you know the story, here is the song.
(It's not letting me put the video up, so here is the link)

Such a proud wifey

So, amongst a million and one things smacking me in the face this week, my refrigerator broke! UGH, I can't tell you how done I am!
My sweet & hard working husband who thinks he can fix the world has really been trying to get the 'fridge fixed. Unfortunately we can't pay someone to come out and do it, but he is really trying hard!
Last night I was busy doing something, and I looked over and noticed him pulling the fridge out, again. My poor husband had just got home and ate & he is just non-stop. After a few minutes pass, I notice he is on the computer. Now if you know Jose, he is NEVER on the computer, well it's rare!
I continued doing what I was doing and after a while got up to see what exactly he was doing on the computer.
Well, my smart little cookie of a husband, who rarely uses the computer, was on there looking up tutorials on our refrigerator trying to figure out how to fix it.
Definitely a Proud Wifey moment, I just have such a good husband that will figure anything out that is given to him!
So, after working on it for about an hour, he thinks he might know what is wrong with it. But, still not positive.
So, I will keep you posted as the refrigerator saga continues...

A test of faith

I have been being taught lately to have "Faith". Let me tell ya, have Jose and I been tested in this water!
The Websters definition for Faith is: belief and trust in and loyalty to God (2): belief in the traditional doctrines of a religion b (1): firm belief in something for which there is no proof (2): complete trust
WOW, now if that aint the truth in my life right now!
As I was talking to God this morning and just asking him for what needs to be done. I asked Him, "Lord, give me something."
I was going through my lesson for Sunday, Nothing.
Going through some message boards, like I would find anything there.
Then I started going through some updated blogs. There is one that I follow that has been off for a while, but she updated last night. What she wrote caught my eye and included a song.

I am in a valley right now but I HAVE to believe that He will bring me through....please keep me in your prayers.

So simple, yet so powerful! So as I post this, I just ask that you keep my family in your prayers.

Wanna Make A Bet?

Last night Jose had a softball game at 9pm. So after Adriana's practice we went home, I got Dominic showered and ready for bed.
Well, since Anthony went with Jose, Dominic refused to go in his bed.
So I let him lay in bed with me and relax until I decided to go to sleep.
Well, I grabbed the jar of M&M's that is on my night stand, and was eating a few. I told him he could have just a few also.
He asked me, "Mama, wanna make a bet?"
I replied, "What does that mean?"
He said, "You close your eyes and open your mouth and I will put a nema-nem in your mouth and that's a bet."
I said, "OK, but who taught you this?"
His reply was, "Sissy"
So, I closed my eyes, opened my mouth and he put the 'nema-nem' in my mouth.
A few minutes later he asked me, "Mama, wanna make a bet to me?"
So I of course said, "Sure."
He closed his eyes, I put the M&M in his mouth and he said,
"See, now that's a bet!"

25 weeks & 3 days

And not ONE donut!
Before I knew I was pregnant, I have been craving donuts.
I didn't know where this came from, because I despise donuts, I seriously do not treat the kids to donuts. They are a waist of money, food, calories, just everything in my book. Jose on the other hand thinks they are great, well a few select.
BUT, for 25 weeks & 3 days, I have resisted...Until today!
I woke up tired, had a headache and just didn't feel well. You want to tempt me, get me when I am tired and not feeling well, I don't fight well under those circumstances.
So, knowing I had a few bucks in my purse I came to work, opened up, and informed the girl working out I was going to get some coffee.
Well, the closest & only place open at the Godly hour of 5 am was Yum Yum Donuts. I walked in with the intention to ONLY buy a coffee, but then I saw something that I have been fighting...
THE DONUTS!
UGH, those darn donuts & my wonderful friend Noe putting Apple Fritters in my head (he was talking about apple fritters Friday night at bible study) I couldn't resist.
I bought a large coffee, an apple fritter & an orange juice.
$5.12 later I walked out a happy camper.
Then I got to work and realized, I could have went to Bakers and got me a whole breakfast for the price I just paid for a stupid donut, coffee & o.j. UGH!
Oh well.
I ate it, and I enjoyed it!!!
I still have my headache, and don't feel well, but I got my apple fritter...

A chain link fence did it

I picked Anthony up from school today, he gets in and tells me, "Mom, I think I need stitches."
I'm like, "WHAT!?!"
So, he lifted up his shirt, which has an obvious rip in it and shows me this huge gash in his right shoulder.
I asked what happened and he told me that he was running to lunch and ran into a chain link fence with the alligator lock. The lock caught his shirt, ripped his arm, it threw him around where his chest hit the pole and gave him a huge bruise on his chest, his head hit the fence, scratched him by his ear, he has a bump right under his right temple and then fell to the ground where his arm is scratched up.
Oi Vei! This kid!
At first I was worried, then VERY upset that no one from the school called me. HELLO, my son has a gash in his arm that might need stiches, his head was hit right under his temple and I'm sure the wind was knocked out of him w/ that bruise on his chest and NOBODY called me!?!
So when we got home, I tended to his wounds, which all they did was place a bandaid over the gash.
Well, come to find out, when I finally was able to talk to the lady that treated him (I was tossed to 4 different people..I tell ya, NOT a happy Mama!), she explained to me that he came in and just showed her the "scratch" that was on his arm.
Ok, I know my son is tough, and not a cry baby, but like I told her, make a call home and let me know that he has been hurt. She appologized and assumed by the way he was acting that he was fine and just got a scratch. She also informed me that it was busy in the health office at the time and now knows how "little or big" the situation, she needs to take time to meet everyone's need and not just brush them off.
That made me feel good. She at least cares enough to correct it, and I felt better about the situation.
So, after I hung up with her, I called Urgent Care and made an appt to get him in.
We went down there and the Dr said that the gash was left for too long and that stitches wouldn't do anything for it. So she just put antibiotic on the scratches (I could have done that at home & saved the money from his co-pay). Then she checked his jaw, which at that point he informed her that his jaw was bothering him. She said just to keep an eye on it.
**The Dr. was very insistent on him telling her the truth. She kept asking him, "are you sure you aren't being bullied", "are you sure you weren't running from someone", "are you sure your doing ok in school and no one was trying to beat you up", "are you sure no one else did this to you". He explained to her that if someone were to try to hurt him, he would have been expelled or suspended for fighting with the injuries. This kid!**
Then as I warned him...
He got the dreaded tetnis shot! But he begged the nurse not to put it in his butt cheek.
She told him that they do it in the arm, and he was VERY relieved...That was hillarious! All he kept worrying about was getting a shot in his butt...LOL
So all in all, he will be fine.
My tough kid, wonder whats going to happen next year when he starts his journey in football. LORD, give me strength & patience while waiting in many 'a Urgent Cares!!!

My belly is kicking

Dominic came to me and was telling me,
"Mama, my belly is kicking."
I asked, "It is. Why is it kicking?"
Which I assumed he would say that he was hungry and was meaning that it was 'growling', but no.
He answered, "Because my babies are kicking in my belly."
*ROLLING!*
I tried to keep my composure and have him explain his problem to his Papa. When he did, we couldn't help but bust out laughing.
Then Jose attempted to explain to him that having babies in his belly isn't a good thing, that only girls like Mama can have babies in their bellies. Dominic did not like the explanation and continued to insist that he has babies in his belly and they were kicking.

I feel so crazy blessed and oh so lucky

I really wanted this song on this page playing, but it isn't as popular as the one that I have and can't find it anywhere but on youtube.
So I figured I would do a post on it and a little story behind it...
The song is called Me and the artist is Plumb.
A girl from a mom's group that I belong to posted this on the board along with the lyrics and I immediately fell in love!!! I listened to it about 3 times and just couldn't keep a tissue dry.
Then tonight Dominic was being a brat, seriously! Knowing he didn't have a nap today, I knew he was tired and just needed to relax and hold his mama.
So I laid on the couch with him and his blanket and just snuggled. Then the song popped in my head with the following lyrics;
"I feel so crazy blessed and oh so lucky
To be the place you go
When you need to feel safe
When you need a kiss
It's me"
So without further ado, here is the video & the lyrics...


I haven't had
A chance to sleep
And when I wake
I wake with your dreams
I guess my pillow
Holds some kind of key
To your peace
Your peace
Me
I wouldn't trade your love for all the candy
In this great big world
Me
I feel so crazy blessed and oh so lucky
To be the place you go
When you need to feel safe
When you need a kiss
It's me
I haven't showered
And I tried to eat
But all your tears
Oh they needed me
I need some time, some time to think
But when I hear you
And what you need is...
Me
I wouldn't trade your love for all the candy
In this great big world
Me
I feel so crazy blessed and oh so lucky
To be the place you go
When you need to feel safe
When you need a kiss
It's me
I wash your face
To make room for
All the kisses
Of tomorrow
And every day
That I get to
Be here with you
Is sweet
Me
I wouldn't trade your love for all the candy
In this great big world
Me
I feel so crazy blessed and oh so lucky
To be the place you go
When you need to feel safe
When you need a kiss
It's me
Oh don't be afraid
Cause you'll have is....
Me

It's Done!!!

Thank you SO much Ali!!! You can go to her page if you are interested in getting a new layout for your blog: http://missionfielddesigns.com/

My dear friend Mo came up with my new title & blog name & the song I put on my page is a song that reminds me of my babies. Not to mention a song that the Lord has given me from Him.

Thank you all who helped me come up with a name!

24 Weeks=6 Months

I took some pics of my growing belly & thought I would share.
Covered Belly


Anthony thought he had to be a part of the pic. My jealous boy


Side view bare belly

I don't like candy corn

Ok, so the topic was brought up on a group of moms I am involved in and I just had to blog about it. Just a memory that if I ever forget, I will be SO upset!
So here it goes...
There is a channel on t.v. called "Noggin". It is focused on pre-schoolers and has little characters that do little skits between cartoons.
They seem to do good at focusing on seasons and teach the kids matching, rhyming, colors, etc.
Well this season (fall) they have a song called "I don't like candy corn". Here is the youtube video of it:


Well Dominic & I LOVE this song!!! We also LOVE candy corn!!!
I believe that you are ONLY allowed to eat it during Halloween time (in my book, it's against the law to eat it any other time), you have to eat it color by color, either by the top or bottom, and you can ONLY eat the original candy corn (even though I have heard that the caramel one is really good).
I am just a dweeb with Candy Corn, but every time we go to eat it, we sing,
"I don't like candy corn."
Then I will ask Dom, "do you like candy corn?" and he will either answer yes or no, joking of course, and I have a little cauldron next to the candy corn container and if he says "Yes", then I say, "Here, you can have mine." And I give him the cauldron w/ some in it.
It is just a sweet little memory that will last just for this time, but I want to remember forever.
So after posting this & everyone reading, I encourage you to make memories with your children. Jot them down and remember them forever!!!

Can I go in the alligator, Mama?

Dominic and I went to my Dr's appt today. While I was driving there, we went by Beaver and he yells, "Mama, where you going?"
So I told him, "To my Dr." He replied, "Your Dr. not here, your Dr. over there." Pointing to the "old" Beaver building. Continuing to explain to me that his Dr. is in this building (the 'new' Beaver building.)
So as I continued to drive and explain to him that I do go to the Dr here, thinking that maybe because he hasn't gone with me to this one, only the Redlands office, that he was confused.
As I am pulling in, he begins to argue with me again that, "Mama, this NOT your Dr. my Dr. is here, your Dr. over there!"
I told him, "No Dominic, Mama comes here to."
He finally accepted that mama does go to the Dr where he goes to the Dr. So he asked,
"We'yell, can we go in the alligator then?"
I asked, "The alligator?"
He said, "Yes Mama, the alligator that takes you up, up, up to my Doctors."
*ROLLING!* He meant the ELEVATOR!!!
After I got over the initial burst of giggles, without trying to make him feel bad that he pronounced it wrong, I told him, "Yes mijo, we can go in the alligator."
Well, as I was parking, I realized...
This isn't where my Dr's office is...DUH! It is in the building, next door, where Dominic said it was!
UGH, I think I need some much needed sleep.
So, I told him, "Dominic, you were right, Mama's Dr isn't here it is in the other building."
Of course he replied, "See I teld you Mama. We go there before."

While we were in the Dr's office waiting, we were talking about his dentist appt that he has tomorrow. Well, he is insisting that he goes in the alligator...LOL
