I shall never grow up, make believe is much too fun

Hi, I'm Kayla! Nice to meet you. I'd shake your hand, but that's kind of hard to do through a computer screen, and I'd rather hug anyways (which is even harder to do through a computer screen). I suppose I'll start out with a list of my mods, eh?

iam:pregnant Piercings:
*Both nostrils
*Septum
*both nipples
*Lower belly button
*Ear lobes (5/8')
*Typical girlie second and third ear holes.

Retired Piercings:
*2ga Tongue (darn you, work!)
*Labret
*Sternum surface piercing

Tattoos:
*Pink, green and black stars on hips (yeah, I'm a stereotypical girl, what of it? They're gorgeous)
*Pink and white star by my right eye
*Cupcake on left upper ribs
*"Not all who wander are lost" (From LOTR!) on upper back
*Next Monday, I'm getting Swedish Fish on my ribs near my cupcake! Eventually, it's going to be a full candy/junk food piece. It will be pretty.

Sometime in the near future, my plans include (hopefully!), getting at least the outline of my candy/junk food done on my ribs, and splitting my tongue. After that, I'd like to get a Dark Tower themed tattoo on my leg/foot. Exciting.

So a little about me aside from the fact that I'm lightly tattooed and pierced....
I'm 19. I live in Hastings, but work in Grand Rapids. I'm a preschool teacher. I'm in love with anything pink, sparkly or fuzzy. Summer is my favorite season, but I hate flip flops or sandals in any form. I have a golden retriever named Diesel, he is my baby. I really like music, and I don't really discriminate... However, punk, rockabilly and ska are my favorite kinds. I'm not a fan of rap for the most part, and screaming metal doesn't usually do it for me, but sometimes they're okay. I own wayyy too many pairs of shoes, and I have a walk-in closet full of clothes (and then some). Salvation Army is my friend. I like wearing dresses and heels, but I'm just as comfortable in jeans and a tee shirt. I'm a walking contradiction.


16 Weeks.
Tattoos are still looking gorgeous :)
 



2007/09/13 11:27 Wow, it's been a while! We found out that the baby is a girl! I was hoping for a boy, but I can't complain. She's going to be gorgeous :) Her name is going to be Sydney, but we can't decide on a middle name. I've been pushing for James from the beginning, but pretty much no one else likes it. I think Sydney James is a lovely name. The family wants Lynn to be the middle name, however I find it to be a bit boring for my tastes. Sydney Lynn Dykstra is just too much "y" for me, I think. The only reason I'm even considering Lynn is because both my mom and Lee's mom's middle names are Lynn. Perhaps this is poll-worthy? I think so. The end.

2007/05/29 08:15 So I'm sooooo bloated, and definitely starting to look pregnant (or just fat... but I'd like to think pregnant). Bleh. So yeah, here's 2 pictures of me, tattoos, and some pregnancy-related bloating! (or perhaps I'm further along than I thought and I'm starting to show a tiny bit? Who knows.) The end.

Mommy Kayla(?!)
2007/05/26 12:34 So I just found out on Thursday that I'm pregnant! It definitely wasn't planned, but I'm getting pretty excited. I told Lee (the daddy), and he is beyond geeked. I'm so afraid to tell my mom. She absolutely hates him... She doesn't even know we're together, how horrible is that? I don't know what I'm going to do there, because we're obviously going to be moving in together soon (Lee and I). I suppose this will have to be my pregnancy diary for the next 8 months or so, because I really don't have anyone/anywhere else to talk about it. None of my friends have had kids,a nd I'm sure they're all going to be kind of dissappointed in me... That's okay though, I think this is going to be the beginning of the best time of my life. I can't put into words how excited I am to have this little dude in me. I never thought I'd be happy about getting knocked up unexpectedly (especially when I'm this young), but I'm definitely ready for the challenge and it will be an adventure.

2007/05/07 05:20 Good morning! It's been an exciting few days, as usual. I've had the last 4 days off work. Thursday I was sent home because they didn't really need me (not enough kids), and Friday I called in because I was "sick" (Jena, my best friend was in town, and we went shopping then came back to my house for a House marathon). Saturday was wonderful (as usual). I got to spend the whole day with Lee, and we made dinner together. I love cooking, and cooking with that goofy kid is even better. I've never enjoyed doing it with anyone else before, but for some reason we're excellent together in the kitchen. We just made mashed potatoes and chicken, nothing fancy, but it was definitely the most fun thing I did all weekend. Saturday night there was a keg at the Wescott residence. You know what is really weird? Drinking with the people I've partied with for years, and the Wescott parents. For some reason, drinking with parents still weirds me out. Tracey was belligerent as usual, and Jeff was hilarious. For some reason, there was beer pong going all night (frat parties, anyone?), and Jeff was leading it. He kept losing, so he was getting wayyyy more shitfaced than anyone else. Oh yeah, and it was like a damn zoo there. The combination of rowdy boys, wescott parents, 3 dogs, a few cats, and a fresh litter of kittens... Yeah. This felt like one of the first real summer weekends. My class is officially over at school, the weather was gorgeous, I got to take Moonshine for a walk, watch my favorite little brother skateboard for a bit, drink keg beer, driving with all of the windows down blaring ska music, etc. The leaves are out, and green, the sun is shining, I'm wearing summer clothes, and life is good. On a side note, I'm thinking about leaving my job. It's been a really hard decision, and I have no idea what I'm going to do. I love my job more than anything, but it exhausts me so ridiculously much! The 45 minute drive kills me, and I'm thinking if I'm going to go to classes full-time in the fall, I might not want to be so exhausted... I want to give my best so I can do well. I wish I had someone to tell me what to do at moments like this :( But yeah, to help entertain the masses I have pictures from this weekend. I've got a picture of Moonshine riding in the truck, my adorable brother being silly, and Lee being hilarious wearing my shirt. Good times :)
