Daddy's and Daughters

HELLO!! I only titled that Daddy's and Daughters because BC just told Clay about a song called that by Kevin Fowler, and it was soooo cute! You should hear it! I dont know if i like kevin Fowler singing it, it kinda sounds weird, but the words are great! Definitely a good song for Clay and Nova!! Hers looves her Daddy!

So i just got done with my Zumba class! i started instructing on July 19th at Lonestar fitness! I love it! Except tonight, i didn't know the hook up for my ipod wouldn't charge my ipod and play at the same time, and when i got there my ipod was DEAD! compltely DEAD! When it came on, it was so dead i had to let it charge and couldn't play a single song! i felt very unprepared and embarrased! Thank the lord above that two of the ladies had some back up music we used while we waited for it to charge! We only got to do about 40 minutes of work out, but it was hot in there and i did some good songs that made you sweat! I know some people dont like it, but I love it! If your not sweating, your not working out!!!!!! Hopefully i get a set class that i can be more prepared! lol i swear it will not happen! I got certified to teach it last August, then the next week i found out i was PREGNANT! haha! Good stuff! so im just now getting back into it! but I do  love it!

I dont know if its just me being at home more, or if im just trying to start making something and maybe starting to sale some stuff if i find myself talented enough lol but im fasinated by antiques lately! I bought a few items from Madi Kay Designs, who is very talented!! She made this piece for us which im in love with:

Isnt it gorgeous?! The red birds are our good luck charms! My nanny always loved them, so everytime i see them i think of her, and she was sooo inspiring and happy! She always had so much hope for me and clay! She would looove to see Nova if she were here! K i got off track, lol Anywho, I also bought this piece from her as well:

Im in love! But i thought i would give it a try and antique it myself! I know clay's grandmother can really do it, so i am going to have her help me with my first, but i pray i dont mess it up! haha! i would hate to! its going to go perfect in our spare bedroom! im very excited to start on it! Hopefully i can be as good as Madi Kay Designs! haha! But in the mean time, ill just keep buying her amazing pieces! lol I will def be posting an after picture! well, if it turns out okay!

So here is the latest on my little BF Nova Ann! hers will be 3 months tomorrow! i cannot believe she is already 3 months! It seems like yesterday we just found out we were pregnant,  and here is this precious child God gave us! Im absolutely in love with her! She completely makes my day 100% better! I think she is teething too! She has been drooling for a while now, and started putting her hands in her mouth and now if you happen to stick a finger in there, lets just say if she had some teeth it would hurt! She is not a newborn anymore:( which makes me verrrrry sad!!!!! BUTTTTTTT i know when i even want a baby fix i can rub my sister in laws belly because they are pregnant with #2!!!!!! Im so freakin excited i could SCREAM! They wanted their little ones closer together, which i actually thought about, but am rethinking lol i dont know that i could handle two! But i know if anyone can its Blaire and BC! they are amazing parents! AMAZING! Mason Reed is beyond amazing and i cannot wait to be a proud auntie kaykee again to this new bean growing! I cant wait to find out what we are having either! lol

They sure can make a pretty blue-eyed baby boy! I can only imagine how gorgeous this next one will be! Im very excited for them! love them soooooo much!!!!!! can you tell im a proud Auntie?!?!?! Well im off to shower! Tomorrow we have lunch with Auntie Sammie, then maybe a work out! hopefully! lol Im counting down the days till i get to see some of my family again! 9 days until my mom comes! yay! not sure when dad is coming again, but i pray its soon! one day, I know i will have all of them here! i just know it! until then! NGHT!!!!!!
love always,

just another saturday!

So its the beginnning of August and I am so ready for a change in my career path, or maybe im just ready to be done with school so i can have a big girl job! lol I hope to start at TAMU on the 28th of this month, hopefully everything comes through, because i have never not been in school and would prob freak! lol I think im just ready to be done with school cause of having Nova and feeling like its time to grow up. I feel like i cant support her, and im not sure im a type to be a STHM... i give major kuddos to those that do! I feel like sometimes, not because of Nova, I am in a big square, cause there is no windows in our living room, and i cant get out. lol Im too scared to get nova out in this terrible hot weather, so we stay here all the time. I think its time to start looking for that big girl job, and day cares! ew.... lol that scares me to even say!

I dont know that i could ever leave this little girl though! She has acid reflux, and lately its been pretty bad. but the doctor said she doesn't want to put her on the meds because she is growing and healthy, and the meds can have bad side effects. She said she will outgrow it, hopefully thats sooner than later. I hate to see her choke... and that is another reason why i am so scared to put her in daycare. Im scared they wont knnow what to do when she chokes...:(  I know they should know what to do, but there is always the what ifs in the back of my mind...:(

So here are some of my maternity pictures by Brittanie Simon! She has pretty  much captured me and clay from the beginning of our engagment to our wedding and now to our little creation! she has done a great job and we cannot wait to have her do our family pictures this fall! so excited! Me and clay talked about having another baby, well one day, and right now we are going to just wait and see what the future holds! I think im going to get the "implinon" in my arm, which lasts three years. I dont know if we will wait three years, but until the time comes, lol id rather be safe than sorry! Nova was pretty hard to figure out in the beginning, espp with not having my mom here to help me everyday. I became a mommy really fast, which we asked for, but man was it hard! your never really prepared to be a mommy.. but now it is amazing! she laughs, coo's, smiles (all the time unless poopy or hungry) and talks so much! She loves her Gannie and seeing her everyday too!

Speaking of Gannie, this lady has came to my house every single day since Nova was born. She has uplifted me, and given me so much hope for the future! I honestly dont know what i would do without her! If it weren't for her, i honestly dont know how i would make it everyday. Not having my family here, it kills me.. some days are harder than others. To me, its just not normal to not be right down the road from your family. That is how i grew up.. i understand i am a big girl, and have my family now, but i dont want them to walk in one day and see that Nova doesn't know them like they would like her to..I want Nova to know her "honey" and "poppie" and uncle Dee and zanic.. I get extremely jealous seeing other girls talk about being with their mom.. so yes i dont know what i would do without my "gannie." Nova loves her to death! she Smiles and laughs at her all the time! She is an amazing little lady! Im very thankful to have her in my life!!!

Well im off for the day! Nova just woke up from her little nap! Till next time!

My First Blog!

Hi!!! My name is Kourtney Curry, I married my highschool sweetheart Clayton Paul, on July 24th of 2010, and we had our sweet little Nova Ann on May 10th of this year! I have created a blog because I am currently a STAM with Nova and have gone through some major changes this past year, and have so much to vent and talk about and facebook just aint good enough! haha! I hope you enjoy everything i say, vent about, post pictures of and give advice about! So to start out, Ill bring you up to my life now:

Me and Clay just celebrated our 1 year anniversary on July 24th! We have been dating since May 25th of 2003, 8 years!!! It has been an amazing journey, and am proud to say I am such a lucky lady! We had the best wedding party ever, and our wedding day was one to remember! We danced the whole night!!!! One year down, 70 more to go!

We had our sweet precious Nova Ann on May 10th 2011, a day after clay's birthday! We have had our girl name picked out since we were in high school lol!!! Nova is from my dads middle name backwards, Avon. And Ann is after my moms middle name. Nova Ann Curry. She is truely a blessing to our lives, makes us smile every second, and I cannot wait to watch her grow! she is already got daddy wrapped around her little fingers!! Hers is 12 weeks now!!

We have had a "hell" of a year! From getting married, to finnding out we were pregnant, to my parents divorce,  to Clay becoming full time at Red Oak Fire Department, to buying our first home and having a house fire! To finding out we were having a little girl, to me graduating with an associates (finally) and having our sweet Nova, and finally celebrating our 8 year anniversary with our 1 year wedding anniversary! its been crazy! I have learned from everything that it all happens for a reason! God doesn't put too much on your plate, esp not something you cant handle! It definitely felt like at sometimes I coudn't handle it, but we have managed! Hopefully this next year will settle down some! lol 

 My family is currently in mississippi and Tennessee. My seester is almost 20 and my brother is 11 and started 6th graade today! holy cow! I wish they were closer so i could be close to them and watch them grow up! Its hard to be close to them when they are almost 500 miles away... esp with my sister! One day we will be close again i hope! My parents divorce was one of the hardest things i have ever dealt with.. Its hard to even vent about it. Its wierd to think a year ago our lives were completely different. I know they both know I am here for both of them as much as i can be! I pray everyday my whole family moves back, so they can see Nova grow up, so I can just have them here. Not having your family especially when having a baby is extremely hard.. i give kuddos to those that deal with it! lol I'll just keep begging until they are all back in Texas!!!!

Well i think i have summed up just about our life over the past few years! hopefully you enjoy this blog, the posts, the pictures, the advice and the extreme venting! lol Leave comments if you would like! I love to hear from ya! ill be posting just about everyday!!! See ya soon!!!
 love,
