I'm Only the Nanny

Recently, I got a job to nanny these 3 kids.
When most people get an offer about babysitting and watching others kids you automatic assume that the kids are going to be good and sweet kids. Well.....

Mine of course are not. HAHA there are 2 boys and a girl and the very first night i stayed with them at dinner they threw there spaghetti. Yes, Im not joking when i say my kids had a food fight at dinner. I was so embarrassed and had no idea what to do to make these kids listen and mind me. So I make it through dinner and now bath time. I wish i could upload this video i took what all 3 kids were doing before bath because, they were running around with their pants around there ankles and getting major ( the horse dog aka mastiff) excited . If you don't know what kind of a dog that is here let me just show what major is... HAHA the sad thing is, this is honestly the dog.Major also can not keep his slobber in his mouth it just drools.. ugh GROSS and did i mention that the thing thinks he is a lap dog? ohh yes sir, major will come rub up against like a cat and I honestly get thrown off balance.

So once major was excited and going crazy I lose it. I call the old nanny almost in tears like Mary, Mary I have lost control of these kidos. They won't listen to me and they are running around like just plucked chickens ( literally) with there heads cut off.
Good thing Mary is so sweet and was like okay London calm down, don't stress! she says- "london you have to raise your voice at them and tell them everybody if you don't sit down where you are I am going to call your dad" so i do and the results where just mind blowing. At that very second there was silents. I couldn't believe my ears.

So basically, every since that night I have used that line. Ha
No, but the kids have be doing so much better and I learn so much from them everyday.

Finding Me

Hello Lovey's,

I know it has been forever since i last wrote on this. But I am writing now! Can't promise ill keep it up bc we all know ill probably wont but i am going to try.

For those who know me know that my summer started off a little rough! Jared and I broke up and yes, of course it effected me. But After coming back to Greenville and stuff taking place making me see this whole new well him.. Needless to say I'm doing Better than I ever was.
I am so blessed to know and have such a close walk with the lord. I know he sure has takin cre of me through this all. More importantly he has shown me that I am not in control of my life and I am so thankful for that. Also during this time I've gotten to see things that have made me realize how thankful I am that those events did happened the way they did b/c i know looking back I wouldn't of been strong enough to ever do it and I would of ended up unhappy.

Everyone who has been through a break up knows that in the beginning its hard to find yourself again. Due to the fact that you have been forming habits and thinking of someone before you for so long it almost was 2nd nature. What i have found out during all this, is that I sorta lost myself in someone else! Even the little details about who i am changes in a weird way without you even recognizing it at the time.
And if your like me, you finally get to see the real and true other person. You begin to figure out more about that person then you ever knew while dating him. Which is kinda funny how that works but its totally true. You get a better idea how character traits and personality which thankfully is normally a negative and turn off.

The coolest thing about a break up is once the pain is gone and trust me It will LEAVE.. haha luckily mine took less then most peoples ( that's what I have been told at least) But when its gone you feel this freedom, this weight lifted off your shoulders. You start to find yourself and remember the fun small details that got pushed aside. You begin to build that inner love and confidence for yourself instead of finding it from that one person. And honestly, most of the time you realize you were to good for and better off without him. especially after getting to figure out who the real "he is". You start enjoying life more then you do before that relationship. You start to really evaluate things and make more out of life. You start noticing other people noticing things about you that you once knew but again forgot. which makes life fun and enjoyable.

So needless to say I am enjoying life so much right now. I am blessed and so glad that i have had my family, friends and most importantly My God right by side through this terrible but totally glad it happened experience!!

My NeW Nephew

Okay,

Fist of all I have to ask myself " what in the heck is wrong with you"

The fact that my sister is having a baby BOY is a blessing. Who know maybe once he grows up he can knock some dang sense in you.

LINCOLN and JOHN what an amazing gift from god you two have been blessed with. To know that two people MALE and FEMALE have made this precious baby boy.

I can't wait till BABY Valin is born and ready to make his foot prints on this earth.
Linc and John you are probably the best two Christ following people i know.
I can say personally I look up to you both so much. I am so excited about this baby boy.

Secondly and LASTLY- you better hope i don't run across you anytime soon...... You need to think long and hard about what you say.. who are you anyways to talk like that about someone.
also just food for thought--- evil can not harm the stronger!!! you can say all you want about my family but just know you talking nonsense just makes us realize how amazing this family truly is and how reassuring it is to know and see God working in John and Lincoln's life.



JULY 7Th Could not come sooner.

I think I might need to rethink that.

Okay,

Jared has been talking about wanting a dog for awhile now. I always explained to him that right now in his life he just doesn't have enought time for a dog. I mean right now he barley has even time for me( his Girlfriend ).
Background of Jared: IMPULSIVE BUYER.. Yes yall thought I was bad. haha

Jared called me one day and said " Hey London what are you doing later tonight?"
me: Nothing why?
Jared: I found something online today that i think your going to love.. I already talked to the owner of the ad and im going to stop by later tonight and wanted you to come.
Me: Jared is this a puppie you found.
Jared: Well.... yes. London its so cute you'll love it.

Anways,
We go to look at the puppie and he asked to watch for the night to see how it acts around people and stuff. yes i say acts around ppl bc its a PITBULL.. Number #1 rated for being aggresive. HAHA didn't he pick the best.

But now its been about 2 weeks since jared is a proud owner of a blue american pitbull and there is no girlfriend to be found.
I am missing couple of fingers that stunner has digested and im pretty sure my toes made a full meal to him as well.. JK but for real im so scared hes going to eat one day.
But Jared and his right hand man stunner are happier than ever. Great for them right.

Anways Here is the puppie that has bit his way in the middle of Jared and I.

got my first pair of Big girl Running shoes.

So..... today i went out and bought my first pair of big girl running shoes. but, mine are blue.
My father and I are running in a half marathon in march. Yes, thank you prayers are well needed. I should be up to well 4 miles and come change and yesterday i will say i ran my 3 miles. I thought I was dieing the whole 3 miles as well. But i made it.

On another subject (cheerleading) Last night i was at optionals, and well was doing a fun stunt I've done many times where I do a handstand and my partner throws me up and I turn around and end up with my feet together and one of his hands. anyways well I hit the floor really hard. not only that but my head hit. I know I know, I'm very lucky and to be honest it scarred me more then it hurt at the time. Im really sore and the trainers wont let me do anyting until saturday. So i didn't get to cheer at tonights bball game but ill be back for saturdays.

Lets see Jared and I hit our year marker a few weeks ago. WAHOOO never thought the day would come That myself would be with one boy for a whole year. But it did and im so thankful for that and him. hes a big part of my life now and hes an amazing guy. I couldn't of ask for anyone better. Hes simply made for me. ( god told me so :)
Picture of some gorgeous flowers he got me. I arranged them tho in a pitcher. haha



Anyways thats the lastest on me. Ill keep everyone posted.
Love and miss you all.
