Our Day Off!

The girls and I both were off today so we decided it would be a good day to change rooms. But before moving rooms around we decided to paint them first which we have never done. We had a great time but I have offically decided I am way to old to only get three hours of sleep before getting up and painting again. So here is the girls and I's paint job!




This is Michelle's room!







This is Elizabeth's room!

We are gonna work on the curtain hopefully tomorrow but I have a house to put back together first.

GO ME, GO ME!!!!!

It has only taken me what over a year almost to figure this whole changing you layout but I did it! Okay girls be proud I posted twice in one week! HE HE HE

Let's play catch up!

Hello Everyone! I know I am terrible at keeping this thing up but I am trying. We have been very busy with the girls and our own stuff.

We recently took the girls to their first basketball game at WSU! We have never been to a basketball game that wasn't theirs or someone we know at school. We had a great time and hope to return again soon.


The girls both had a good season in basketball. Elizabeth's team won all but two of their games and Michelle's team only won one game all year. But at our house it isn't how many you win it is how much fun you had playing so I call it a good season. Michelle is going to be playing in MAYB tournaments this weekend and possibly again in March. This is something new for all of us at our house so I hope it goes well.




Nick and I are doing great. There have been alot of things going on at Bradbury where Nick works. They have fired 20 or more people since Christmas. We are praying that no one else is fired. My job is keeping me very busy. I am up to 9 kids registered for daycare. I only have 3 full time kids though the others are all part time. I just took on my 3 baby about two weeks ago and I must say little boys are way different then girls. He is 7 weeks old and a cutie!

This is Samantha and she is 5 months old.
This is Peyton she is almost a year old! I have had her since she was 7 weeks old.

This is Kristian and he is 7 weeks old now!

I have kept Conner a few times this month while his daycare provider is gone. I will say now that I think he is just like his Uncle Nick and Daddy! But we really enjoy the time we get to keep him. He is growing up so fast!


Things are our house just never seem to slow down. We are going to being starting Baton again next week. So Michelle and I will be busy on Saturdays doing practice getting ready for the parade in May. So as you can see we are very busy and I must say love that I get the chance to do so much with my girls. They are growing up so fast. Beth is almost 12 and Michelle will be turning 11 shortly after that. I just wish there was a way to slow time for just a little while so I can keep them small a little longer. I hope everyone is doing well and I will try to do better about updating my blog sooner.

Halloween

Well while I am here I am gonna post Halloween pictures!

We had a good Halloween the girls each had a friend here for trick or treating. This is the first year I have stayed home part of the night and handed out candy while Nick took the girls trick or treating. The girls came home with way more candy then they will probably eat but that is why we have Nick here to eat the rest. HE HE

Well I will try to update a little more often and I hope this email find everyone doing well.

New daycare babies!

Peyton is the baby I have had the longest. When she started she was 7 wks old and now she is 8 months old. She is a joy to have around but I think she might be a touched spoiled since she has been the only baby here for a long time.




This is Elizabeth she is 3 months old and a very happy baby. The only time she cries is when she is hungry. Nick has a soft spot for this one. But don't get me wrong he loves having all three babies around.




This is Samantha and she is 3 months old. She is a great baby too and doesn't really ever fuss unless she is hungry or tired!

I really have enjoyed being at home with them and I am very glad to be at home with my own girls. I wish I had about 8 more arms most days but things are really going great. My girls are having an absolute blast with these girls. I also have a two year old who only comes 2 days a week for a few hours his name is Aiden. I have two school kids that are in the 3rd and 4th grade. I have a good group of kids and couldn't ask for better daycare parents.
