Wow what a wk. So I went out to the bar on Tuesday and what happens I drive there I have headlights on the way back however I do not. That is right 12 am and no headlights for the 13 mile drive home. It was one scary drive at least my flashers worked.

So we decided to take the van to get fixed because we could not drive it. We had to go to Grand Forks so that was lots of fun. We made a mini vacation of it and decided to stay at a hotel that had a water park I would so recommend this hotel it was a little pricey but so much fun. We ate we shopped and we had a ton of fun. My favorite part was after I had sat at the car dealership for 4 hours I got back to the hotel and my wonderful husband and children bought me a new Willow Tree. They are so good to me.

The dealership was so nice but not a fun experience. They could not find out what was wrong with my car so we Kia ended up getting a rental until our car was fixed. We had to drive home a little Toyota Camery with 3 car seat I defiantly missed my van the whole way home all we heard was he is kicking me his is hitting me...The best news yet our van is fixed now all I have to do is find out when I can go get it. It is too long to go once Kaitlyn is dropped off at school because I would not make it back to pick her up in time. I guess I have to wait until Matt gets home.


Ohh the best part is Jerome wanted to be a big boy after getting naked by himself when we came back from swimming he was standing by the toilet arching his back and peed all over the toilet and floor it was so cute but such a big mess. We were very proud that he wanted to do it and did it all on his own.

Wow I can not believe that it is already Valentines day at Kaitlyns school. She has a little boyfriend who is so cute, he sends her love notes home. Now I am not condoning this but it is cute. Today we thought we would make it a special day for her so We went and bought her a rose and delivered it to school. When I gave it to her I told her this is because we love you, her reaction was "I can see that". How adorable is that. We also got a new game for the WII that we will let the kids play tonight and tomorrow because we got a baby sitter I know shocking we never get a babysitter. In Charleston we had a few close friends who watched the kids but not very often and never a teenager. I am just so excited to know the girl watching the kids and I trust her she help out with the kids at Sunday school. Sense I got Kaitlyn a flower you know I had to take a few pictures so here they are...

A long wk and it is only Tuesday

So we have had a pretty busy wk and it is only Tuesday. We have worked on the house all wkend and now looks like we have not done a thing to it. Lucas and I are starting school work here at home I just want him to be a head of the game next year when he starts kindergarten. I can not believe he will be in school all day it is almost bitter sweet. The poor guy is already having trouble with girls, He has 2 girlfriends but they have decided to share him lol. We are still working on the potty training but I am kinda giving it a brake right now. Kaitlyn has been reading so well she is really into Junnie B Jones books so I think we will be buying some for her. We are awaiting on our tax returns so I can buy my tickets to Charleston. I am so excited yet thinking it is bitter sweet. I miss my friends so much and wonder if it would be better to come when I can come for longer than just a few days. I only am going to be able to fly out on Friday and fly back on Sunday so that is kind of sad. Matt really wants me to go, so that will is really nice. My great friend Natalie showed me a great way to display pictures so I have been playing around with it a few are old but that is ok. Well better go it is about that time that my baby girl will be getting off the bus.... Did I mention she has a boy friend more to come on that subject daddy and me are not quite sure what to think about that.

Who at the cookies from the cookie Jar

So kids do the weirdest things. When we got JT ready for bed the other day we relized he has chocolate on his face, well the next day Jt kept sneaking off so I thought I would check on him.... Well I found him in the kitchen with the tub of cookie dough between his legs and 1/3-2/3 of it gone. Now this was an almost brand new tub. He say me put the cover on the cookie dough put it back in the fridge. Now we have relized he has been doing this a few times because by inspecint the fridge we found cookie dough on the handle. I did not get a picture but really wish I did.. I am sure he will do it again when he finds a new tub of cookie dough. He really is trouble but I love the kids.

The big kids have been really good getting into a routine sense the move and we have had a lot of fun with teaching the kids the lessons about god. I really do love watching my children grow and can not imagine life without these crazy people in my life.

Thinking about what we have become

There are days I can not believe that 8 yrs have passed sense I found out I was pregnant with Kaitlyn. It shocks me to this day of were we started and how we have grown as a family. I know many people did not give us much hope to make it but we really have shown them wrong. I was 19 when I had the most precious little girl and even though times were rough we loved her and loved each other more than you can imagine.From what people described as puppy love we were able to build with the help of god to a wonderful life. I have been blessed with three of the most precious children alive and the most warm and loving husband I could have ever imagined. I just am in shock that I have been married almost 8 yrs with 3 kids.


From 2 you kids in love
