Long time away.

I have been missing my blog so much lately. Right now Kaylee and Jillian are galloping around the living room. They are getting so big. Kaylee is in Kindergarden and loves it. Jillian is so her own little person. Much like her mother I guess. I love my family. We had a ladies bible study here on Saturday and we studied Joy. They sure bring me more joy then words could ever explain. It is almost Christmas and I cant wait to see their little faces as they open their presents this year. As Kaylee gets older she is starting to really appreciate her gifts and is so thankful. Jillian will be happy with probably anything. Time to go for now. My New Years goal will be to keep up with my blog better!

We're still here

Well, we have been so busy. Jillian turned 1 last month. Kaylee has now lost 2 teeth and just graduated pre-school. We have been having a lot of fun the past couple of months. Kaylee is very excited that she is on summer vacation now. I would love to share tons of pics on here of Jillian's b-day and others but our computer will crash and die if I try to put one more pic. on her. As soon as we get another computer I will be adding more updated photos. We miss you all!

Finally a much need new vehicle

We were lucky enough to be able to use tax returns and some extra money from Nick's work to get a new vehicle. Thank goodness for that. The poor Honda was so small inside and just falling apart. We love our new van. Now we can hopefully travel more b/c having a dog it was almost impossible to go anywhere too far from home.

KK lost her first tooth

I cannot believe she already lost a tooth. It was so funny the other day after I picked her up from preschool I told her I brought her tooth fairy money and was wondering if she wanted to go spend it. She said, "mommy, you don't have to call it tooth fairy money, just call it cash." Woah. It was so funny. She bought a stretchy turtle with her money and has been taking it everywhere.

Look how big she is getting:-(

Almost 10 months now. My lttle baby is going to be 1 soon. She is so different then Kaylee was when she was a baby. She has quite the temper. Speaks her mind already. It is cute now but I dread the terrible two's. She can wave, give high fives and dance. Sometimes if there is a good song on the radio she will just be sitting in the back dancing away in her carseat. It is so cute. She is a big time mama's girl. KK was too so that is pretty similar. She loves yogurt and bananas. It is so cute, when she finds stuff on the floor like little crumbs or something like that she will save it in her hand and crawl around with it forever. If she see's us she will hand it to us like she knows that she is not suppose to have it. Her favorite toy right now is proably baby dolls. She loves them and will give them hugs. She so desperately wants to be a big girl and do the stuff that KK and Morgan do and KK and her friends. She is my sweet little baby.

Finally, back to the blog

Sorry it has been so long. Well, it has been a crazy couple of months. The Holidays were good. This was the first year that we went out to go cut down our Christmas tree. It was so much fun. Kaylee just started preschool and is having a great time. It is sad for me as her mom to let her go though. Jillian is getting so big and crawling everywhere. SHe has two teeth. I just can't believe that she is already 9 mos. Time goes by way too fast. Nick is traveling more with work so that isn't very fun. He has to travel to NY about every 6 wks now. He loves his job though and they love him. I am babysitting 2 little girls 2 days a week so that is fun for Kaylee. I also just started selling Tastefully Simple so that has been fun. Nick went hunting this year with daddy but they never got anything except for frostbite. J/k I am going skiing next weekend and am pretty nervous b/c I have not been in about 8 yrs. Well, that is it for now. I will write again soon. All my love!

Special Olympics charity dodgeball tournament

On Sat. Nick competed in the chick-fil-a dodgeball tournament to benefit the Special Olympics. It was an all day event and he had a lot of fun. KK loved to watch him in action as you can see her in the pic. cheering him on.
