Happy Birthday Sam!!

Since Sam is basically my brother, I figured I would give him a nice Happy 32nd Birthday shout out!! (Dang you're getting old)!

Now if I remember correctly... my Mom made an awesome He-Man cake for Sam and Chris (the little boy we babysat). It was the Castle Greyskull, with the little figures. It seems like it had a moat, and that green coconut for grass. I think that she made it for a Cub Scout bake sale, then bought it back herself. I could be wrong, but it seems like I remember Sam and Chris blowing out candles on the thing!

Anyway, have a fun Birthday. Hopefully that new little baby isn't keeping you up too much. (Hey atleast you get to have the week off)!!

Happy Birthday!

My Personality...




Well, I took the same test as Eden, and here are my results. I especially like the fact that my femininity is low, and my masculinity is high. That made me laugh, because it's totally true about my personality. I don't have much empathy, or patience for people... oh well. At least DJ's kind heart balances me out. He said that he's afraid to take it because it might show his femininity really high. I kind of wear the pants aroung here.

An Intervention....


I need your help! It appears that we need to stage an intervention for DJ. He has a recent addiction that he can't seem to break.
It all started last month. We purchased Webkinz for the girls for Valentine's day. For those of you who are not familiar, they are stuffed animals that come with a special code. You then go online, and enter this code to adopt your pet in the Webkinz world. Once you adopt your pet, you have access to play games that can earn you Kinzcash. With this fake money, you can buy and decorate an entire home for your pet, and buy all sorts of cool things in this online world.
DJ helped Taylor get started, and it was all downhill from there. He loves playing games to earn tons of cash "for Taylor". He has spent multiple nights staying up until midnight, playing games. I finally have to tell him to shut it off and go to bed. Taylor awakens every morning to a large sum of Kinzcash in her account.
Taylor has been able to purchase a house with all sorts of furniture, including a Plasma TV and leather sofa. She also has a large yard with a pool, barbecue grill, pond, and garden. She is having a blast blowing all of her newly acquired cash. (I'm sure that she's learning some wonderful lessons in money management).
So basically, DJ has a problem that he needs help with.... pray for him please!

Help Me Mom!!











I guess that a nice Mom would stop to help her poor big headed kid take her shirt off. Instead, I grabbed the camera and laughed until my stomache hurt!! It probably took her a full minute to get the dang thing off. When she was finished she yelled, "Stop buying me these little shirts!!" Too bad she doesn't know that the shirts are not the problem.
Nat, I'm sure that this is a daily problem in your house. Maybe if I go along with Ginny's idea, and buy her all sweats, we could avoid this problem in the future. Sweats are probably a little stretchier. If not, there's always the zip up tops. For now, I'll just laugh until it hurts, every night when it's jammie time!

Happy Birthday Lindsey!


Happy Birthday Lindsey! I thought that you would enjoy a little eye candy! (Barf, I know, but I couldn't resist)!!
I'm going to have to delete this in a day or two, so that we don't all have to look at it all of the time! (even though I know that you secrectly love it)!!
Enjoy being 26!!

Camera Happy


Ever since Taylor got her new camera, she wants to take pictures of EVERYTHING!! She had to have a picture of her holding the baby, and of course Ginny had to get in too. I though that it was too cute not to share!

Lucky Me!!

The shirt says it all! Reese is such a sweetheart!
She is so easy going and fun. She just lights up our days. We all just adore her so much.

We were worried that Ginny would cause us stress when Reese was born, but it has been the exact opposite. Ginny gave up her "Lovie" the day she was born, and her tantrums have been fewer. (She wouldn't be Ginny if they stopped completely)!

Now if we could just get the kid to laugh. She grins from ear to ear, and starts to let out a laugh, but it scares her, so she stops. She is just so mellow, we call her a toned down version of Taylor. She is just like Tay, but I don't think that she is going to get anxiety or stress like her. (Thank Goodness, it can be exhausting)!

Reese has a flower mobile that hangs in front of her window. It is right underneath the heat vent, so it sways slightly when the heat turns on. Reese has learned this, so whenever she hears the heater, she rolls to her side so that she can see the flowers move. It is so funny.

She hadn't been around anyone for several weeks, so I didn't know if she had stranger danger or not. My Mom stopped by for a few minutes a while back, and I asked her to sit with the 2 little ones while I picked up Tay from school. Apparently Reese wasn't too happy with that. Every time she saw Granny, she just bawled. I figured that stranger danger had kicked in. Well, it appears it's just my Mom! She likes everyone but her. Poor Granny... Tay didn't like her either when she was a baby!

I was worried about having a third (this one came quicker than expected), but I am so glad that we have her!! She's probably our last, so we are just enjoying every bit of the baby stage. (Although DJ keeps saying that he is sad that she's our last. I told him that if he wants another, then he's going to have to carry and deliver the thing himself).

Who knew that kids could be so much fun!!
I love my girls to death!!
