Happy Birthday Emma!


We celebrated Emma's fifth birthday this week. Its hard to believe that our baby girl is already five years old. I still remember the day she was born like it was yesterday.

Go again and the next visit will be free...

Not really, but it seems that visiting the Urgent Care is as close to Chuck E. Cheese as it gets. When you first go in, you get crayons and coloring books. They also give you a cool orange watch/bracelet. Then they check you over with these cool gadgets that go on your finger and under your arm. Then someone comes in and REMOVES THE POPCORN KERNELS FROM YOUR EARS!!!! I had to take Riley in because he put the kernels in his ears and I couldn't get them out. This is the second time that he had put some foreign object into his ears. I am surprised that the nurses and doctors don't recognize us. We have been to the urgent care three times the past couple of months.



I guess its a boy thing.
About a month or so ago I lost (sob) my beloved camera. It wasn't the best camera, but I was able to take pics of the kids and upload them whenever I wanted. Knowing how it was tearing me apart that I couldn't take pics of the kids anytime I wanted, Lee told me that I could purchase a new camera last payday. Have I mentioned how much I love that man??? I looked online and found a pretty good deal on ebay. I went and bid on it when there was less than a minute remaining, so I knew it was MINE!!! I waited on pins and needles until it arrived, and tracked the package at least 10 times. When I got it I couldn't wait to start snapping pics. So here are some of those pics....ENJOY!!



Here is Riley, sporting a new haircut, I guess the flash surprised him!


Jackson and Emma, she just LOVES her baby brother!



I was so excited that I woke Lee to show him my new camera.



Here is Garrison...not sure what kind of face that is.

New to Blogging!




Hello! Welcome, this blog is going to be about me and my family and all the "craziness" that is part of our normal everyday lives. I guess I should start out by introducing everyone.


Hubby-A hardworking man so I can stay home with the kiddos. He is the "King of the Castle" BUT is treated more like the court jester...and he wouldn't have it any other way.


Emma-My first born is getting ready to turn 5. She is such a GIRL!!! She loves anything and everything that is Princess related. Her favorite colors are pink and purple. She tells me that she is going to marry the ice cream man so she can give out ice cream to kids when she is older.


Garrison-My first born son, he is the a cuddle monster. He loves to hug and snug. He is an electronics FREAK!!! He will find anything with buttons and figure out how it works. He has mastered the DVD player, microwave, and password protected computer.


Riley-Beat out being the first born son by a minute. But he is the more aggressive of the two. He is all boy. He loves Thomas and anything train related. He enjoys music and likes to dance. Riley went from being the runt of the family to the macho man!


Jackson-My little man. He is the sweetest boy in the world. He is a mama's boy and I LOVE IT!!! Although he is starting to watch and interact with his two brothers and he thinks they are a riot. He also LOVES his big sister. They play so well together.


Me-What can I say? I am a SAHM to four GREAT kids! I am back in school, again, and looking forward to learning some new things. I am also looking forward to adult interaction. I love Lauie Berkner and all...but I can only take so much Noggin!
