So i know i am a tad tardy with this post, seeing how it is two into the new year but that is how i roll, Tardy! I must say that 2011 was quite a joyous year full of family get togethers, nightly dance recitles in the living room, school activities, laughing, love and miracles! 2011 will always hold a special place in my heart. It was a year that made me realise how lucky i am and that prayers are answered! I do have to say that sending my little side kick off to kindergarten was not one of my favorite moments! I still miss that little girl like crazy for those two hours and forty five minutes everyday! It is so amazing how much she has grown in this last year. But even though my little girl is growing up i think i will be ok with it since the most amazing, beautiful, blue eyed little man has entered my life! This little butter ball melts my heart at least 1000 times a day! So i guess in the end 2011 blessed me with all the happiness and blessings one girl could need! Oh and i want to say congrats to all those wonderful girls who also brought a new bundle of joy into their lives this past year! I do have to say 2011 was definently a year of prosper! As i sat and thought about what i would like to accomplish in 2012 i dicided that i am going to make this year a year of renovation! Starting with myself. 1.) i died my hair brown 2.) i recently purchased my first pair of skinny jeans. (Which make me look like a funnel!!) so that brings me to #3.) Lose all my well worth it baby weight and maybe a few more extra l bs just to make sure i no longer look like a funnel in those skinny jeans! 4.) Start adding a little bling to my life, i decided while i was pregnant that i am pretty plain, so i am ready to jazz myself up a some. (good thing Pait got a bedazzler for Christmas huh ;) I also have a little renovation planned for my spiritual side. I would like to become more patient with my children and husband, more kind to all those around me, start seeing only the good in people and not judging them for the bad and i would like to become a more charitable person who is willing to help anyone with anything at anytime and always keep a good attitude! Along with my self renovation i will be renovating my entire house hold decor situation, i have spent hours finding the perfect ideas for my dream home and this year i will put them all together! It will take a lot of work but i am excited. my lawns are also on the list! So stay tuned for the progress of my 2012 renovations! And if there is anything else you feel could use some renovation in my life, please let me know!

Another Christmas has come and gone. Leaving behind trash bags overflowing with boxes and wrapping paper, a new toy to open everyday for

at least a month, five more pounds to lose and at least two hours worth of cleaning and putting away! I love this holiday no matter how much work it is to get ready for and recover from and no matter how many time i have to hear frosty the snow man or jingle bells from a ridiculously excited five year old it all is worth it when i see the huge smile and the freak out dance when Pait sees that Santa has once again found her and ate her cookies, drank her milk and left her a ridiculous amount of presents! So no matter how much work it is the outcome is always worth every penny every moment of stress, every second of back aching wrapping and minute spent cleaning it all up.

No Way!

I can not believe a month has gone by since the sweetest little boy ever came into our family! He has been so good and is gettting so dang fat! i love his little double chin it cracks me up! His big sister cant get enough of him. Sometimes she gets a little carried away with her patting and bouncing and makes me a tad nervous but when i say something to her she reasures me not to worry cause she is really good at this stuff.

We all love him so much and are so glad he is part of our family!

So are little man is here he arrived Novemeber 22, 2011 at 11:34 pm he weighed 7'1 and was 191/2 inches long. He is so sweet! And here we are a week later and still in the hospital with the poor guy. He has Jaundice and cant seem to get rid of it we are shooting for going home tomorrow but that is what they said yesterday so im not getting my hopes up! But i guess this will make it that much better when we finally do get to bring our sweet little Krew home! Wish us luck!

So my heart was broke on Thursday i took Paityn to her first day of kindergarten and i took her to her class to talk to her teacher and i looked back and she was gone i went outside and got her and she told me "listen mom you go in there and i will go to the playground, its time for us to go our seperate ways." It broke my heart, here there were kids hugging their mom and crying they didnt want her to leave and i was getting told to get gone! So im pretty sure the first day of kindergarten was way worse on me! And Thank you Grandma Parry for the back pack Pait LOVES it!

Is been so long since i have updated it took me two posts to fit it all. So here is just some pics of our summer! It was filled with camping, lemonade stands, shooting, cousins, first and second teeth lost, tee ball and fun with family.
