I HATE KEYS!

So last week I was headed out of the house with my three children to go to breakfast club. Some women in my church get together once a month to have breakfast and socialize (and as a stay at home mom of three you all know that I NEED IT!). I left a few minutes early to run to CVS to get some medicine for one of my daughters that had a small cough. I purchased what I needed and when I went towards my car I couldn't find my keys. Yes, I locked them in my car. I just cried. I just wanted to give up. $90 later I had my keys.
Today I went to visit my sister in Arlington. We got out with four kids to have lunch and to run some errands. As we were leaving one store the search again began for my keys. Nope, we couldn't find them. This time I knew that I did not lock them in the car. I knew and remembered closing my sliding doors(minivan) by my key faub (sp?). We went through both our diaper bags three times. The huge double stroller several times and nothing. Finally I called yet another locksmith ($45 this time) and they opened my car door to tell me that my keys were not there. I thought that I was going to go crazy. The guy started to make another key for my car...............wait they were found. My sister set them up on the visor of the stroller and then the visor got pushed back and so the keys were folded up in it.
All I can say is I HATE KEYS!!!

I Survived!



Mackenna was begging me to let her feed Pierson this morning. So I gave in and let her. She did pretty good until I decided to take pictures of her. Then she goes and puts the spoon too far back in his mouth. Guess what! He survived.

Look At My Mad Skills




The kids and I were getting ready to go to church last night for a fun slide show with the youth of our church. Kenna was getting her shoes on and tied her own shoes. She has been doing this for several months now, however I'm still amazed at how smart she is. What mad skills she has. You go girl!

One Of My Most Favorite Things


I really love when babies fall asleep in my arms. This is my cute nephew Parker. He's three weeks older than Pierce. He was so tired by the time we finished our family monthly birthday party. I was holding him so that his mom could get all her things together to leave and bless his heart he fell asleep in my arms. I didn't want to let him go.

Swimming Lessons




So the girls started swimming lessons today through the local recreation center. They loved it. They both love the water and were so excited to get in to begin, however not too excited to do some of the things they asked them to do. Charly didn't want to straighten those arms. I hope through the next few months they will feel more confident and actually learn how to swim. I don't want to have three kids that can't swim this summer.

I went to give Pierce his nightly bath last night and he drug in with him this toy french fry. He started to move around and had it just hanging out of his mouth. I just had to take and share this photo. It reminded me of little old man. This little guy has such a big chunk of my heart. I can't believe how fast he's growing. I promise I'll be posting pictures of my beautiful girls soon.

Proud, Proud Me!!




The girls had a friend come over to play this morning. Pierce was following close behind all the running back and forth. During this all he managed to pull up to the easel, grab the chalk and start making marks on the bottom blue bar. Doesn't he look so proud of himself. I'm just glad he didn't put the chalk in his mouth. Oh I love this little guy.

CALGONE TAKE ME AWAY!!!!!!

I have always loved the age difference (17months) that is between my girls. I think my mind is changing as of the past week or so. I might of thought twice about having them so close if someone would have told me about the constant competition and fighting. Oh wait! Maybe I should have stopped and thought about how my relationship is with my sister that is 11 months older than I am. I really hope they grow out of this. Don't get me wrong they have their good days also, however the past week it's been different and it's been having me scream CALGONE TAKE ME AWAY!!!!!! Please tell me that it will work. It does in the commercials? Right?

I really hope that they will always be good friends and sisters to one another. It's just a stage. Right?

Look at What I Can Do!!!!






Pierce is seven months. He is crawling everywhere. He loves to be in the bathroom when the girls are bathing. He has started to pull up to things also. I'm still learning this blog thing. I haven't figured out how to turn my pics. Advice and tips are welcomed. I didn't even to think about turning them before uploading. Who thought of that. Thanks for help.

New Things for the New Year!

I'm an avid blog reader. I love to read the blogs of my friends and family, however I've never started one of my own. So I decided that the New Year brings new things. One of them is a new blog.
