I love the 80's

I bought Addy leg warmers. Weird, I know. But, they are so very cute. I love them. They were meant for her shoes.


If anyone cares to know, they came from from knottybabywear on etsy. They have millions to choose from. They also have them for arms. I got some of them too!

Oh no!

I noticed recently that my daughter is often running around with my cell phone. No big deal. Not until I realized that she's calling people. Some of you have gotten that phone call. She likes to push all the buttons, and carry on a great conversation. She's so cute, until I try to take back my cell phone, and she gets mad and says "mine!" I'm always trying to hide it, but she always seems to find it. She's also getting into my purse, going through my wallet, and taking out my credit cards. Do you see my concern here? This is a glimpse into my future of me telling her to get off the phone, and "no" she can't have anymore money. Nobody told me it started this early!

It's a Beautiful Day

Today we met Steve for a picnic lunch at Hunter Park. It is so nice outside! We were able to sit right by the water, in the sun, and we didn't melt. Now, my kids are energetic and like to run around, but today they just sat there peacefully, and enjoyed it. Noah occasionally had to defend his food from his sister, but no biggie. A nice lunch. I loved it.

I just had to post this because I've come to the realization this just may be the best I'm going to get. I've been trying for weeks to get a picture of Noah and Addy together, and they all end up the same. No compliance from Addy, and Noah always hunch's down next to everybody he takes a picture with. I don't know if it's because he's so used to being bigger than everyone else, that he just wants to be on the same level as the person he's with or what. So, this is as good as it gets.

Yuck!

This is why my kids are always sick. I don't encourage this. I've been trying to keep them away from Addy, but as you can see that's working! That is so gross. You give her a kiss, and at the last second...she licks you!

Sugar Bear Spider Man and Beary chillin on the couch. He keeps telling me that he feels really bad. Poor guy!

Cookie's 101 with Noah

Noah is a pro at making cookie's now. He's been making them since he was at least three. All I have to do now is give him the right measurement utensil, and crack the egg for him, and he goes to town. I don't even worry about a mess anymore because he really doesn't make one. Maybe one day he'll be our pastry chef! I know ya'll be stopping by then. These were made special today for Mrs. Ashley who is having a birthday (Happy Birthday!). As you can see, he got Addy's approval too! Noah had to stay home from school because his fever was still lingering last night, but I think he would have been fine today. He just gets an extra long Fall Break. It's been nice to spend some quality time with him too.

BEAT TEXAS!!!!!

Pumpkin Patch

We went with Noah's class yesterday on a field trip to Shepard's Cross. It's a real nice farm north of Claremore. They had a pumpkin patch for the kids, along with lessons about god and the harvest. It could not have been on a better day. The weather was beautiful. Noah had fun on the hayride, and Addy just enjoyed running around the pumpkins. I've been suffering with my head cold ever since though. I think I probably should have stayed off the hayride. Oh, well. It was fun.

What a Mess

Family Pictures 2008

Here's our family pictures for this year taken by my wonderful friend, Ashley. I have to give a huge thanks to her because she laid in some pretty yucky grass to take some these, and it made her all sticky. I love these pictures because they totally capture us. It's hard to tell, but Noah's fly is down in all the pictures. That is everyday! I'm always telling the boy to zip up his pants. Addisyn was very cooperative too. (Which isn't at all how she normally is, so "Thank, you God".) Man, Cameron is growing up so fast. Before long, he'll be as tall as me. Then, he'll just be taller than me. Life is so crazy when they are this little, but I remind myself all the time that they will only be little for such a short time. So, with that in mind, I'm enjoying every minute with them.

Thanks again Ashley for everything!

Daddy Time

Oh, Goody...It's rainy Monday. I could have done with some sunshine today, but apparently God thought the ground needed some water. He knows better than I do. It's just that I was stuck in the house with three kids all weekend. I would like to get out and get some fresh air. Steve was gone all day Saturday painting the Claremore HourGlass building. Addy got really sick that day too. At one point her fever was 103.4. She's doing better now, so who knows. We did get to spend time together on Sunday though which was really nice. The boys got to build their fire trucks with Steve. Got to love Home Depot projects! I know they did. Addy got a little one on one time with Daddy too as he read her a book. I'm so glad they adore their Dad. Gives Mom a chance to breathe a little after wanting to go crazy at times. Thank you Steve!

Best Guy Ever

I just have to say that I love this guy! I thank God everyday that he gave me Steve, and our family. I could go on and on, but I won't. I'll just leave it at that.

Just some Pics of my Girls

Well, today has just been full of lots of little surprises. Seems like every hour or so, something happens. All very random things. Cars not starting, thinking I lost my debit card, and so on. I've been on the verge of tears, on the verge of freaking out, and almost cracking up! (Not all at the same time!) So, anyways as far a s funny things, my daughter received her first phone call today. I actually thought someone was messing with me when I answered and they asked to speak to Addisyn. I was like"excuse me, who?", and she was like "Addisyn Roberts, please". I told her that I was her mother, and she couldn't talk (literally). It was the lady from Season's in downtown BA telling me she had won a Webkin. Yeah, for Addy! Then later, after bringing her home from the school, I lay her down for a nap. I just went in to check on her and she's asleep...Butt Naked! She disposed of her diaper in the middle of her floor. I don't remember the boys ever doing that. So, at least I've had some good laughs today. Hope eveybody else is having a better day!
And, yes I do have that picture of her, but I won't post it.
