Ta dahhhhh!!

Chloe. She can be a handful sometimes. She has found my stash of sharpies and colored ALL over the place. Kevin, my most wonderfully brilliant husband, found on UTube a great tip. Hairspray! So, for all those who may have their own little devils that draw all over... try using Hairspray and a paper towel to get it out. TA DAHHH!! It works! Who'd have thought?

And one more makes 5

Well, believe it or not, we are pregnant! I still don't quite believe it and am hoping by announcing it that I can fully grasp the idea that I am pregnant... again. I swear, I feel like I just did this. Wait, I did just do this and still am. I go to the doctor to get the official due date after the new year, but figured my math (or rather guess) is pretty close to what he will say.

Are you laughing yet? I would be. Yes, if you did the math, Charlie and baby 3 will not even be 18 months apart. Let's just call this our Prop 8 baby. LOL...What better way to celebrate the passing of an amendment defining marriage between and a man and a woman than by a man and woman conceiving a child... as God intended. Well, that is that. I am now trying to plan and strategize how I will get anything done with three children - all 3 1/2 and younger. My life was crazy, it will be crazy still. Ahhh... welcome to eternity.

Wonder Woman


My mom is Wonder Woman.

Last week I started to feel really under the weather. My house was neglected, as was all grocery shopping. Sunday night I woke up and the room was spinning. Monday morning, I got up and almost fell over and threw up I was so dizzy. Kevin called my mom and she came to the rescue! She fed and clothed the girls and then proceeded to do about 5 loads of laundry (including folding and putting them away!), clean and mop my kitchen, do all the dishes, dust my house, clean a bathroom, clean and vacuum the girls' rooms, vacuum the rest of the house, go grocery shopping for me, and then make dinner! She did all of this while I was basically lying in bed or on the couch. I love my mom SO much. Not just because she came to my rescue, but because she is always there whenever I need help, or when anyone needs help. She is the BEST. I love you mom! Thanks for ALL your help.

Story Time

So, although I have TONS to update on, I have to drop this little post. Kevin left this afternoon to go to school to work on a group project. Chloe, of course, wanted to call him. She proceeded to call about three times...saying hello, saying I love you, etc. This last time she decided to put Kevin on speaker phone and start reading "Clifford the Big Red Dog." She loves her daddy and loves to keep him posted on everything she is doing and reading. Gosh, she is so cute and I love her!

Happy Birthday Kevin!

Today is Kevin's 28th birthday. I think he is beginning to sound older. :) This post is dedicated to the most wonderful, loving, impulsive, fun, crazy, full-of-energy dad and husband in the whole world. He truly is the best dad I have ever seen. He loves to play- really play, with the girls and I love it. He has enough energy for at least a dozen kids - not that we will have that many, but I know he could handle it. He is so hard working and never gives in. He amazes me with his work and school loads he manages to handle, all while helping with the housework and the girls- he even gets up at night if either of them are crying. He lets me sleep in. He makes me laugh. He still thinks I am a hot mama after two kids... rose colored glasses! He is the best thing that has happened to me and I am grateful for our beautiful daughters he has given us. Babe, you're the best and I love you. Happy Birthday Babe! Here's to many more to come. I love you!
