Second Chance

So I really didn't see where I would have time to do this, but with some convincing from a friend I am going to give it another shot... I am just so dang busy.

Only 10 more weeks until we welcome the newest baby girl in our family and yet we still have a long ways to go to get ready. We have joined Kasey and Erin and their room is ready, but now how to combine and convince them to give up some of thier toys to make room for their sister. They have been real troopers through all of this.

We also settled on a new truck after buying one only to find out it will not hold 3 kids.... LOL
It is as big as a bus, but hey Kasey made a good point we can now take everyone in the world with us and then we would not have to feel bad for leaving them.... how cute is that.

The walls we started painting are done and the tile is done that has been setting on the work bench,. Now if I can just finish the pictures that need to be hung and the new curtains all will be good.

All and all everyone is excited. We just cant wait to hear the name that dad has decided on for our new little one. However since her nickname has already been given by her sisters of Kit Kat she will probably be stuck labeled as a candy bar forever. Hey at least it starts with a "K" right.

Well that is all for today, have a busy day finishing cleaning.. what i can clean.. and then it is off for a fun filled day with the girls.

Glorious rain allows for no soccer and no dance therefore we get to do whatever we want... Shopping for me... bounce factory for them.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

This one is for AMBER

Riley took this all by himself. Say cheeezzeee mommy....
ok YOU CANT SEE THIS ONE BECAUSE AMBER MADE ME TAKE IT OFF..... lol
I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD PICTURE.


I took this one.....

I cant remember if I sent this to you are not, but it is cute. I think Riley might have a knack for photography !!!

Amazed by how quick they learn

My day started off normal.... didnt sleep much so got up late. Get the kids dressed, get myself dressed, send one with Nana and one with Grandma, and try to get TOdd moving out the door so he is not dragging in late at work. For the life of me I dont know why he stresses being at work before they even open, but you know guess it takes go getters to start this world every morning. Me I rush rush rush, just to go and sit all day. Which is good I do get to talk to many interesting people every day working at the hospital. Which also makes me appreciate every aspect of my life and my family.

So hear is the highlight of my day before rushing to end the day with supper baths and bedtime stories.

So my little one loves to sing and sing, she does. Mostly she sings nursery rhymes, but sometimes she comes out with her very own little song. She especially loves mimicing her older sister and singing about tittie tats and witches. Halloween I think is her very favorite. Especially the totalate part.

Kasey of course is singing her kindergarten songs and all of them you spell the color in the song and then name the color. Speaking of colors and words we now have to not only say them but spell everyone we say or look at. There goes that little trick me and her daddy use when we are trying to hide stuff from her. She catches on to them pretty darn quick.

While I am cooking I hear Kaylee Erin singing and her new song goes as such:

O-R-A-N-G-E, O-R-A-N-G-E that spells Black

After singing verse after verse of this Kasey (as we are laying out the cookies to cook) says mom how do you spell black and then goes to properly educate Kaylee Erin on O-R-A-N-G-E spells orange not black.

And Erin's response.

That witch is black...

In which we all start laughing....

Kaylee Erin needless to say is going to be the smartest one of us all. :)

Have a blessed evening.

OK I am ready to do this.

Ok so here it goes. For about a week or so I have been contemplating starting this whole blog thing. I like my friends stories and thought this is easy... Yeah well after a week setting it up and then a week of what to write, finally here I am...
I thought I might cheat and just steal Danielle's Friday fill ins but hey it is Sunday and I missed Friday.

I was originally going to write about my first trip to Fall Creek Falls. Man was it beautiful and the hiking was wonderful. I even made it riding a thousand miles on my new bike. The weather was nice in the mid 70's and the leaves were already turning. The lake was calm, but the fish were not really biting. Our cabin was great, right on the lake and we just stepped outside to fish.
What a great relaxing trip, we have definately decided that is our retirement.

Then I thought maybe a cute story about my girls, but then which one.

I love reading Amber's and she gives me tons of ideas and makes me want to be creative and make stuff. Just my luck my scrapbooking items are buried under 1o000 pairs of shoes and purses and I have yet to borrow my mothers sewing machine as I have wanted. So those pretty pillowcase halloween dresses I guess will wait until next year. Very well on to the Christmas ones. This is after maybe I take another tip from Amber and unclutter all this Shhheeeeiittt t in my house..... :)

Anywho I think you are suppose to keep these things short. So I guess I found something to say and I cant wait to post some more...

PS Amber you were not forgotten I have missed your post... So next time dont wait more than a week... LOL
