The Big # 4

Well as much as I don't like it, Kaidynce is growing up. She just turned 4 and acts like she is a teenager. Attitude and all. She is so spunky and silly and sings her little heart out all day long as loud as she can, which some days is too much. She will sing about the wind, rain, the dishes, a rock, or even a stinky Lizzy turd. I hope that this means she is going to have a future in performing. She loves to dance, and shake her booty like nobodies business. She cracks me up! For her birthday she asked for nail polish, make-up and of course dolls. So i did get her all of it because its just as much fun for me to buy her this girly stuff. I absolutely enjoy having a daughter that loves the same things I do. She loves to get dolled up and then loves to go play in the dirt. It makes me happy. I just hope time slows down a bit so I can enjoy her innocence still, because before i know it, she is going to be sneaking off with her boyfriend. Oh boy , that'll be interesting. LOl!

4 months Already!!

Alright so time has gotten away from me and I have neglected my blog. So sorry! We have had a lot of things going on in our lives but I am trying to figure out my new computer, so bare with me. So Lizzy is now 4 months old. Sniff, sniff. It does make me sad, but really happy too. She is amazing and such a fast learner. She started rolling over at 2 1/2 months old and is working on sitting up on her own. She is so determined that it is scary. She's got little abs of steel! She is holding her bottle and every thing else that she can get her little hands on, especially her soft blankets and my hair. I will not be surprised if she is an early walker. She is also a very long baby. She weighs 12.9 pounds and is 26.5 inches long. That puts her in the 99% for her height. Its crazy. She is already wearing 6 month clothes cause she is too long. Its so interesting how different each baby has been. Lizzy also has such a spunky personality. she is always happy and easy going. She makes it very easy being her mom and even easier making the transition of 2 kids to 3. thank goodness!!! BUT, I've got to figure out the sleeping at night issue that i am having. She wakes up sometimes every hour . It makes me go crazy! all she wants is her darn pacifier or her bottle . I have gotten to that point of having to let her cry it out a few times because I am just too darn tired to get my old body out of bed again for the millionth time. I am trying to positive about the situation and crossing my fingers that she will catch on that I need my sleep too. Hahahah! Any advice would be very appreciated . Please help!!

EASTER 2012

Easter this year was so nice. The weather was gorgeous and my kids were all healthy and happy. We started the morning off with an inside easter egg hunt for our kids. Karter and Kaidynce always get so excited when they have to go find the eggs. It is always fun to watch them get so excited about it. They found their eggs and their baskets , which were filled with a chocolate bunny and a basketball for each of them. The easter bunny brought them a basketball hoop, which gets used every day! We ate some yummy crepes for breakfast and then ventured up to my sister, Jennie's house in Chester for a picnic together. We had steak, home made potato salad, chips and cupcakes. It was delicious. Next we loaded up all the kiddos on the four wheelers and went for a very long ride. It was so hot and fun. We seen deer, and coyotes and lots of rock chucks. We ended the evening with a hotdog roast in their backyard. It was perfect. I love holidays like that. Simple and satisfactory.
