Border Battle Game

Today is the Ohio State Buckeyes vs the University of Michigan Wolverines football game. I will be watching the game during 'dinner' with Jake's family. We are just now celebrating Thanksgiving at our house. I am going to root on Michigan as I grew up with a family of Michigan fans. I really don't get in to college football but I do watch this game every year. Chances are Michigan will lose as they are having a bad year but I am rooting for them anyway.




I signed up as an independent rep for a company called mark. in order to bring in more money for my family. I am hoping that between mark., ChaCha, and donating plasma at Biolife that we will be bringing in enough money to move out and get a place of our own. Vinny will be walking soon and our room is  not safe for a baby on the go. If you are shopping for a woman in your life or looking for amazing makeup, fragrances, bath and body, hair products, and fashion you should go to http://cgambrel.mymarkstore.com/ you will find fabulous products in the store. For every $10 in sales I will donate $1 to the Allen County Humane Society Dec 27. So a little over a month, here is to hoping that we can donate a good amount of money to those deserving pets!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I would like to start by saying I am thankful for all my friends and family that support my dreams of being a book author. I am also thankful for Jacob, without him I would probably still be living in my grandma's house, hardly eating, dating abusive cheaters, and worse of all I wouldn't have my amazing little man. I would definitely love to thank Vincent. I never knew there could be a love so strong. ote
I will be going to my grandma's house at 1pm. Jake worked 4am to 1pm yesterday and went back to work at Midnight and got home at 8am. He was not planning on going to dinner with me to my grandma's but has decided that he will wake up at noon and get ready. However, he wants to go to my grandma's for half an hour and his brother's for half an hour. I don't agree with that as I hardly get to see my family and we live with his family. Not only that, but his brother will be here on Saturday along with the rest of the family for their Thanksgiving dinner. They postponed it so that his other brother could be here. We are watching the parade on tv and Vincent is loving it. He gets upset every commercial break and squeals when it comes back on. Oh by the way we now have 6 teeth :)






On a sad note, my grandfather on my mom's side of the family passed away just two days ago, he lost his battle with cancer. My mom wanted nothing to do with me when I was born and until I was 15 years old I hadn't met any of that family. I only met them then because I had a cousin that was in the same school. My grandpa never got to see Vinny which really upsets me. I am sorry to share such harsh news on such a day.

Pictures!

I am happy to share that Vinny no longer sleeps in his swing. He has slept in the crib every night for the past week and three days. I have let him take a nap or two in the swing but the first couple of days we hadn't even allowed him to be in the swing. He was either in the playpen, walker or his crib. He also is getting better with other children. With the holidays coming up me and Jake started going to Biolife Plasma Services and donate plasma to make extra money. I have left him in their daycare three times and he has had no problems what so ever, even when the other kids come up and try to play with him. He usually just stares at them. He is starting to chat a lot. He started off saying hihi about a month and a half ago, then dada for a couple days then it was a constant mama, now its a constant dada. he still says hihi and mama just not as much. I love him more and more every day.

I finally got some pictures on my new computer so I am going to share a bunch of them and an adorable little video.
