Who's the Baby??

Ava and Nora seem to make their way into the baby swing more often then Jack does! I usually holler at them and chase them out of it,telling them that it is for babies and they are no longer babies! But sometimes it is just too cute not to take a picture and wish that they weren't growing up so fast!

Maddie's First Day of PreSchool!

Maddie was very excited for preschool to start this year! It was a little easier for me this year to drop her off since we had done this last year! I am really excited about her new teachers and her new adventures! I am also extremely excited to have one more year to enjoy her mostly to myself before she starts kindergarten! She is such a beautiful, bright and happy girl...it is fun for me to watch her make friends and to grow! I got a few pictures of her and the other kids before we headed off. Ava starts school tomorrow and she is equally as excited!! It's a beautiful thing, yet extremely difficult to watch your babies grow up!

I got a PedEgg!

I suppose this post is mainly for the amusement of my sisters ...but you all will be happy to know that I am now the proud owner of a PedEgg! Its this great device that shaves the calluses off your feet, perhaps you've seen them on TV? My husband was thoughtful enough to buy one for me the other day! I think after I scratched him with my callused heels the other night, he decided I needed help! I used my sister Nikki's once and I found it to be fantastic! So while I could have been offended with this gift...I was pleased...very pleased!

Why I never have Time to Blog!

This afternoon I was on the phone(which I should never do while the kids are up) with my mom. I hollered up to the girls to get out of the bathroom. To which they responded...we are cleaning it for you mom! Oh great I thought.(sarcastically) I finished up on the phone and went to see what they were up to! They were washing up the tub with their body wash. they said look mom we cleaned the whole tub...we used toothbrushes to help us! Discusting! Thats what happens when i don't pay attenetion for 5 mins!

Already!!!

I knew this would happen sooner or later!!!
I walk into the room and there is Jack swinging with a necklace around his neck!!
I am sure this little boy will have his share of moments like this with his 3 sisters!

The Birth of Baby Jack
