Kyla is now 7!!

The kids chose to have their birthday dinner
at Texas Roadhouse. I am happy
to say that this year they actually got on
the saddle when they sang happy
birthday to them!!

I really can't believe that my sweet, happy
little girl is 7 years old now! I honestly
feel like it was just yesterday that
we had her. She is growing up way
too fast, it actually makes me quite sad!
Pretty soon it's going to be makeup and boys
and talking on the phone all of the time. Doug
is having a hard time with it too. He is in
denial that his little girl is growing up!
Happy Birthday princess!!

Jayden turns 5!

I can't believe he is 5 years old. The
last 5 years have flown by. I try and tell
him he is still my baby, but he refuses
to believe me! He says he is a big boy now,
but I tell him he will always be my baby!
He is such a boy too, he loves monster trucks,
bikes, scooters, wrestling and being a total
goof! Love you so much my little man!!

Too sweet

I have only two words to say about my kids,
very precious! I could just gobble them up!

I love him

I love this man. He makes our family work. Without
him I would be lost and so unhappy. He is my strength,
my sounding board, my protector, my eternal companion,
my one and only, my greatest advocate, the man who holds my hand
and wipes my tears when I am struggling, the one who allows
me to be who I want to be, he is the one who makes me happier
than anyone ever has. He is the glue that holds this family
together. Jayden likes to say that I am the nurse boss and dad
is the pilot boss, but we all know who the real boss is and he's ok
with that! Without him our kids would never get any vegetables
or really good, healthy food! I love that when he comes home
from being away from the family for a week, he dives right in
and does everything for the kids and for me. I will forever be thankful
to his mom for raising such a wonderful and confident man.
I know it's not easy to be married to a confident, strong willed,
sassy girl like myself at times, but I know he loves me even
more because of these characteristics. I am truly lucky and
blessed to have him as my husband and the father to our
children.

Gingerbread House

Most people know that I don't have the most patience in the world, so when the kids
wouldn't stop asking for a gingerbread house, I told them to wait until dad got home
and he would do it with them. They were so excited about that. So, I bought the ginger-
bread house and told Doug that he was going to have so much fun doing it! Ya right!
Needless to say, Doug didn't have much fun, but the kids did! Once it was done it was
all we could do to prevent them from destroying it and eating it. We made them wait a few days and this is the result.

Fun times

Jayden gets to take Grover home from preschool
periodically and he takes him everywhere! I LOVE
this picture of him. He is so sweet I could eat him
up! I love him so much.

Duck duck goose, gotta love it!
