 Eddie.This is Eddie at bathtime. Who is Eddie? He is my three-year-old miniature schnauzer. In January my boyfriend of six months, Ben, took a job in Texas and moved away. I got his dog. Ben still calls and writes to ask about Eddie, not me. Ha ha, that's ok, I don't blame him. Eddie is the sweetest, most obedient dog ever. I absolutely love him. Pet Peeve. You've all seen it. Boys in pink polo shirts with the collars turned up. I have one question..."WHY?!?" Don't you think that would get so freaking annoying? You know that feeling you get when someones tag is sticking out of their shirt? It drives you crazy and you want to tuck it in? Well, i get a similar feeling with these stupid collars. I want to fix it. New Job. Tomorrow is new job day. I hate starting a new job. Oh well, here it goes. 
Goodnight.

Awe, Baby Sam. I got to play with her. I can't believe how much she's growing. When I think of her, I still think of the newborn ♥Samantha. She's so much fun right now. Recently she learned how to spit and she does so constantly. Her dad spits back at her and it makes her laugh, which i love. Rolling over is also a favorite activity now, but after she gets on her tummy she gets upset and Alex is always there to roll her back over and assure her that "it's okay my Baby Sam Samantha". Ha ha, she's so sweet to her little sister.
Today I went with my Mom to Brittneys end of year drill team review. Brit's an awesome dancer, and I love watching her. At the end of the performance they had all the girls dads go onstage to hand their daughters a rose. I was shocked, no one had told my mom and I, and on one had thought of Brit. Poor Brit stood on stage alone and cried while the rest of the girls were hugged and given roses. Why are people not sensitive to things like that? The people who planned this know about our dad. I was really upset, maybe even more so than Brittney was. If they would have told us about it in advance we could have found someone to step in for our dad. There are a lot of people who would have done it for her.
Good news! I finally got a job. I start training on Monday. It's a call center, which isn't to exciting, but my best friends husband is the trainer there and he's the one who got me the job, so I'm not to worried. At 9.50 an hour I'll be making a lot better money than most of my friends and I'll finally be able to start saving to get myself back into school-something I'm really looking forward to.
All for now.

Samantha came Saturday October 15th, 2005 at 12:54 p.m. I'm told that I'm lucky because I only worked for about twenty minutes until I heard her first cry. She was 6lbs 11oz at birth and exactly 20 inches long. My mom got to cut her umbilical cord, which she's still proud of.
I stayed in the hospital until Monday afternoon, and my mom didn't leave once the entire time I spent there. A lot of friends and ward members came to see us. My favorite visitors came on Sunday. Ivan and Becky Earl brought their two year old daughter Alex to meet their brand new daughter. I have never seen two people look so happy to hold a baby. They didn't stay long, but it was really good for me to see them with Samantha. Alex wasn't so sure about her new baby sister at first...
I took Sam home for four days. While she was with us we took about a million pictures, got no sleep at all and spent unbelievable amounts of time staring at her do nothing at all. At three days old we took her to the mall to her her picture taken at Kiddie Kandids. She was perfect the whole time we were there and we got some of the cutest pictures of her.
While we were there a lady walked over to us and asked me how old my daughter was. When I told her she looked at me and asked "Are you crazy?" It made my mom mad, but I just laughed and told her "Probably a little bit."
It's one a.m. More later.
