new student, any volunteers to show me round the academy? :)x

Well can I make this decision?: We decided to keep the baby. I really appreciate all that you are doing for me Wilda. I can only imagine, wait I can only feel how you felt when you found out. I was just so shocked and now I'm scared and excited at the same time. I have a little bump now.

We decided to make names for them already.

Girl: Faith Rose
Boy: Alexander Nathan

What do you think?

Congratulations on your decision Ash!
I know that you, Jeff and little Faith Rose or Alexander Nathan will be happy and ocntent together!
So yeah, by the way...i love the names!
If ever you need anything...

And Wilda, Im glad! I honestly didnt mean anything nasty, i seriously love the courage of young mothers, and the love they bring their children up with. Although I do envy children who have had their parents around them their whole life. Because mysister was more of a mother to me, even the maid is now
But yeah, even though Im not Ash, id like to thank you aswell

...hmmm, i think im going crazy

lol Chloe you aren't going crazy I'm sry your parents aren't around much. My mom worked a lot and was rarely home as well. Well up until I was 14 and she finally ahd a job where she could be home more but by then I was at the age where I always wanted to be gone lol.

Ash, I'm really glad I can help and be there for you. As for the names, those names will most likely change a hundred times before he/she is born lol. I was about 6 months before we finally agreed on Isabella but like a week before she was born we decided on Isabelle instead. Not a big difference but she just didn't feel like an Isabella (although she wishes her name to be Bella now-she's a huge twilight fan lol). But I love the names Faith Rose and Alexander Nathan I was definitely wondering if Rose would be a part of her name

Thank you babies.

Yeah Wilda, my momma said the same thing. I wanted to give him or her a good strong name. Faith Rose came from the fact that all the Faith in my life should be in her name because of all the people who love her and Rose, because of the strength she will have and that her mother and father have that strength for her to be here and that she will be a strong little girl.

I picked Alexander Nathan because Alexander is Jeff's middle name. I am hoping that he will be just like his daddy. Nathan is his fathers' name, he and Jeff are so much alike. They are both strong and willign to please their women and no when enough is enough and when to let us have our time together. I gave Jeff the name eligibility for the boy and he helped me with the girl's name.

We originally wanted to go with him using my middle name in our little girls' name, but I decided for her to have her own identity. The boys' name had to have his fathers' and grandfathers' name or I would have had thrown a fit.

Oh good
Thankyou Wilda! Ive got an older brother and sister, so its not like I dont have older figures in my life. (and then theirs the house-staff)
But its just little things like Consultation Evenings, and Mother-daughter events and Father-daughter events. And seeing other teenagers with their parents. But like you said, I don't miss them all that much anymore, maybe ive learnt to deal with them not being here, or just because im at the age where i know they would probably annoy me
And Im sorry that your mother wasnt around when you were younger But Haha for her being there when you were going through adolescene No, Im kidding

I remember when my parents were trying to name my younger sister. They would text names to eachother and myself, brother and other sister. It was a funny time

Haha funny!

Oh! I went to the doctor's today and found out I'm actually two and a half months pregnant and now I'm on mommy-to-be-lock down! I have sooo much to be careful with. I have to take special medicines, excersise, and I can't over excert myself. Being pregnant is tuff!

wow I figured 1.5 months. You've been pregnant a month longer than you thought! And yeah pregnancy is tough. All kind of dos and don't come along with it.

Ugh! But the one good thing is that I get to have Chocolate! Only once a month though, but who cares I get to have chocolate! I think I would die without it! Aw man Jeff just told me he doesn't have any on hand, damn it..., oh well I guess Dylan will sneak it for me!

Whoa, a month more than you thought!
I guess that explains the bump, and the way you were feeling though
Heheee..chocolate. Lavvy (the cook) made my sister a birthday cake with chocolate from Belgium on Monday!
enjoy the chocolate when you get to eat it...i miss it!

Also i forgot to add about the names.
Whatever you do do not call your child anything old-fashioned. Because it will sound stupid, like me and my siblings have found out

My parents are old-fashioned lovers, and live a little in the old-fashioned manner
So they decided to give us the honour of having these hidious names ..
Evangeline Tabatha LeLaney
Aaron Rupert " "
Celilanor Annesce " "
Grace Elizabeth " "
Charles Sebastion " "

Fair enough for my siblings that their names can be modernised :
Evangeline - Eva
Aaron and Grace have modern names so they are lucky i guess
Charles - Charlie or Chuck

But then there's me
And incase you dont know how to pronounce it, its like See-Lie-La-Nor An-esk
I have the worst name no?
Annesce is my grandmothers name on my mothers side
Oh dear...

So yeah..Ash promise me, you won't do this to your child!

Those names aren't bad Chloe. I've heard worse lol. It took me 16 yrs to like my name. I'm named after my grandma and great-grandma. I used to hate it. I was picked on for the longest time. I like having a different name. I have met another Wilda before though. It was kind of weird lol. And I;ve discovered on the internet there are others with the same name so I guess it's not a unique as I thought but oh well lol. And how did you get the name Chloe?? I can see where Eva, Charlie and Chuck come from but I'm having a hard time seeing hwo you got Chloe from Celilanor. The more I say it the more I like it. It's one I've never heard before.

And Ash, they told you that you could only have chocolate once a month?? Thats insane! I was never told that. I mean I knwo you shouldn't go chocolate crazy but still. Luckily I never craved chocolate while pregnant. With Isabelle I craved orange chicken from a restraunt in the mall called Asian Chou (and yes I woudl only eat it from there), and flaming hot cheetos. With Tyler I craved orange chicken again, spicy chicken sandwhich from Wendy's, pasta, and other stuff I can't seem to remember. I couldn't have sweets with my son. I ended up having gestational diabetes. Which is how I lost 15 lbs before gaining any weight. It sucked though cause pasta makes your sugar go up so I had to be careful and when your pregnant and you are hungry and craving something you don't want to watch what you eat

So I know you said you are 2.5 months so I'm guessing the baby is due sometime December?

Heheee! Well its really just the middle names that are embarrassing. When we first started school, people would always know your middle names, as it went up on school boards, and people used to tease our family alot. Call us other names. We didn't like it clearly, but we got over it..we were strong y'know? Thats why my parents went a bit lighter on the youngest two

And I LOVE the name Wilda!

Oh yeaaah, well when i first started going to school, no one could pronounce the name, not even the teachers or anything. They used to call me Celie or Sicelinort? Dont even ask me how they got those names? And it took people ages to just say any name if they had to read it off paper. So my parents got a little annoyed at the nicknames people gave and how no one could pronounce it right. And people would call me by my last name..so they just decided to change it. This was when i was about 7, i think. And they named me after one of my mothers friends. I actually prefer the name Celilanor to Chloe if im honest And i liked a nickname some people gave me when i was 5..Lila. But people just call me Chloe now, because my parents write that to register. Ofcourse, my name is still Celilanor in all the certificates and papers, and my parents and all the family call me by that name. But now that im about to move schools (a private one, which doesn't look too appealing) my parents are thinking of changing it back.

I would have put that as my name on here, but i knew people would be like "wth?! " to the name

I promise Chloe or Celilanor. Wilda said the names for the babies will change everytime we turn around. IT's already happening too! But we are sticking with keeping Faith in the girl's name and Nathan in the boy's.

Wilda your name is very exotic. I find it coming from a south of Spain or nothern German nature of names. Sorry I am kind of a geography and name nerd. But hm... I do really like your name though. If you don't mind I want to tell Jeff to consider on naming our little girl after you.

I was supposed to be a Brittany. I know, but my mother decided not to name me after every other woman who's name is Brittany, so she decided to name me Ashley (spelled like this at first) then she thought, "She could have another form to spell it." Then I came out like this: Ashleigh. I like the spelling but it sucks for souvenirs with your name on it. But I'm moving to Florida when I got to college, so my grandparents might try to change my mind on the baby names.

wow Ash you made me tear up a bit lol. Thats really sweet of you to consider. I like the way your name is spelled. My niece's name (not the one who ran away) is Kaycee. I love it when a popular name has a different spelling.

What college are you wanting to go to in FL?

My name gets pronounced wrong too. They usually say it like Wild-ah when its pronounced Will-da or duh I just looked it up on babynames.com it means untamed and the origin is german. My middle name is Pearl. Wilda Pearl. I soooo hated it when my mom would yell Wilda Pearl! It just sounded mean but I guess thats hwo it is supposed to come off when you are in trouble huh? My brothers and sisters all have normal names. My mom's kids are Ronald aka ronnie and Renee. My dad's kids are Theresa and John Jr aka Johnny. And I have a sister I never met whose name is Sara. She's only 3 yrs older but something happened and her mom kept her away from us after I was born.

anyways...

I think they should let you choose which name to put down cause it'd be the name YOU would go by.

In case you haven't noticed I'm in a bit of a rambling mood today

Aww I didn't mean to make you cry! But yes I love the way it's spelled because I find it names that are not common and common but spelled differently are special. Well I want her to have something exotic and unfimiliar so why not that?

I can see that being you. Untamed huh? Rebelious and sneaky! You sound like me! Ok well it's not all bad I promise!

I'm planning to apply to (if time permits and the finacial aid will cooperate with me) Florida State or University of Florida. Or if I can I will start off in a community college, get my prerequsites for nursing then go to one of those two schools in order for me to finish and specialize in the area of Nurse Practitioning for the OB/GYN field or A Nurse for the crazy people in the nut house.

Yupp, can't ever get over the fact that they mispronounce it. Everyone has a nickname for me: Ash-lay, Ashumms, Ashes to Ashes, Princess Ashlaya, and my favorite Ashley Simpson! But only my firends (you guys) and my family call me Ash. Yeah I get the whole trouble name calling thing, ooh when my mother yells my full name, Ashleigh Elizabeth!, my blood runs cold. Hearing that oooh it just makes me feel like I am in trouble even when shes addressing me formaly.

Yes, that seems logical.

I can see why your husbands niece was found!

ooOoo FSU. I hope you stick with that plan and that it all works out for you I used to want to go to FSU or NYU. Thats what I wanted when I was 16 anyway. Now I have no idea what I want to do. I don't want to put my son in daycare so I'm waiting until he starts school in 3 yrs to go back to school. I'm thinking about taking either night classes or some online classes a yr or so before though. I hate the thought of being 27 almost 28 when I go back to school. But I'll be going to a technical school so it won't be too bad. Most likely I will end up at the vet tech school. There's 2 courses-1 for domestic animals and 1 for domestic and exotic animals. We'll call them d and e. The D course is at night which would allow me to start before he starts school allowing for the internship to start after he starts school. But the E course is day classes so I'd have to wait until he starts school. And thats the course I really want to do. I'd love to eventually work at a zoo helping with the animals-preferably baby animals. Who knows what will happen over the next 3 yrs so we'll see.

I wouldn't really call myself untamed. I wasn't exactly a wild child. Rebelious and sneaky? yeah I guess I was

Hehee, well good Ash!
It would have been very difficult for you guys to have to type that out every time as well though

Oh thats a good idea Ash I love the name Wilda! I think its unique and beautiful!

And im with you guys, i like names that are uncommon and spelt differently..there are so many Chloe's in my school that i go to atm..when someone calls Chloe, Clo, Zoe or even No i turn around to answer

And i like the way your name is spelt Ashleigh!

Yeah I know Wilda. I want to change my name back, but i cant really do it whilst i still go to the school im at right now, because it would confuse everyone
But im either moving to Queen Ethelburga College (which is boarding and in YORk for christs sake! ) or Oswestry School (another boarding one) or some other private schools. So I'll change it then.
However the thought of moving to one of the schools my granparents and parents have in mind...don't really appeal to me they're all horrid clothing, way too many rules, and ages away from my home!

And Oh Ash! Good luck with those colleges whichever one you go to!

Haha Wilda! My granparents shout that all the time. Infact my grandmother did it today. I scratched the plate too loudly with my knife at lunch and she went "Celilanor Annesce LeLaney..how dare you be so rude?!" And she was fuming? My brother almost spat out his drink at the idiocy, and Shane was just thinking 'huh? what did she do?' And I wanted so much to just do anything lse "unacceptable" but i just said "so sorry grandmother, i apologise greatly, how rude of me." And left the rest of my meal. (because thats what we have to do )

And so you want to be a vet?
Im not sure what I want to be yet...but everyone says i should do theatre and Ballet. Which i wouldnt mind, i guess?

And Ha! doesnt everyone have their sneaky side?

And sorry to burden you guys with this..but when your parents or grandparents met any of your boyfriends or husband were they rude?
because honest to the lord, my grandparents are terrible!
They have been so harsh to Shane, and have been throwing abuse at him about his father. Ahhhhhhh! They're evil!

SS they are being like that Chloe. My mom was never like that. She only "officially" met 2 and right after meeting my husband I got the stupid embarrassing sex talk I'm sure your grandparents just want the best for you and probably think no one is good enough for you.

Pahahaaa! The sex talk That is embarrassing
My parents gave it to me, when they came home for bank-holiday, and my brother decided it would be funny to make actions behind them

And yeaah, i dont think thats it..they are just generally not very nice people But i suppose that is probably true

Congrats Jeff and Ash! And thanks Wilda and Chole. I can now officially rejoin the conversation!

Hehe Rebecca!
Rejoin wooooohoooo!
How sit been going?

Thanks Wilda. Yeah, I'm most likely going to be goign there, only because I love the beach, sun, and being close to Sea World! Damn whales and dolphins though... little bastards need to keep thier traps to their damn selves. Sorry not an animal hatter, but when they bite and you are allergic to them you tend to be not so tolerent towards them. But that is really good you are pursuing that, I have a lot of respect for used to be teen mother's going back to school, they tend to be meaner when they get home... but they rock in the end. A zoo? Sounds fun, which one? I used to live in Florida, coming down this summer actually, the.... actually a few days after my ultrasound. I like the wilttle Jay raffs!

That you Becca?! Haha JK! Thank you, Jeff says nice hearing from you again, what's it been ten years since we last talked?

Parents SUCK! But eh mine are................................................................................... ok... They love Jeff actually, when they met my other boyfriend after Alex... Demitri, they hated him. He was a douche bag so whatever. But they like Jeff WAY MORE than anyone else I ever went out with. They said he was good for me, a gentlemen, a sweet heart (how embarassing is it when they call him that?), and that he would make a great husband if it went on to that. Guess it is now, oh and they said he would be a wonderful father the way he handled Tasha and Michael (R.I.P. Baby), so they were just right on. And I have noticed whatever they say, futurewise, about me or someone involved with me happens to me! WTF?! I blame my parents for thier pretensious irony.....................

haha something I have learned is sometimes parents actually do know whats best...but not always.

idk what zoo I'd want to work at. Most likely Lowry park zoo in Tampa or the Central FL Zoo in Sandord (other side of Orlando) being that its closer to me...then again with traffic they would probably take the same amount of time to get to lol. Thats at least a few yrs away so I've got plenty of time to decide.

Thats great that you are coming down this summer. I know you said your grandparents live here. I assume Jeff will be coming with you? Oh and it's really hot here too. But it's the raining season and that seems to be all we are getting this week. I love the rain but hate when it ruins my plans.

WB Rebecca

What are you girls up to this weekend?

Ash: What happened to Micheal???????

Jeff and Ash: More like forever!
