Hailey's Halloween

Here is the most recent picture I have of Hailey....she is getting so tall... but she is so fun to watch learn all her new habits.... including getting ahold of the house phone and calling 911.... no more playing with the phone for Hailey bug..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AVERI...

This is a post to express Happy Birthday Wishes Averi....She will be 4 tomorrow, Nov. 2, 2009 she has been such a fun little girl to have in our family... she is full of fun and mischief, but she is so loved....Her is a picture of her we took yesterday also..

Halloween??? GONE?????

Okay I admit I haven't been writing on here very much, but to be honest... FACEBOOK has taken me hostage, and I haven't been able to break away.... but I apologize...
Halloween came early for Lauren this year... Her school had their dress-up day on Thursday because they didn't have school on friday, so here is her picture in her costume....



Yesterday Saturday October 31, 2009 was such a beautiful day, that we decided to take the kids out for outdoor pictures.... 5 of my 6 grandkids were here to take pictures... Chloe wasn't feeling to well, so she stayed home with her mom while Heather and Megan were out taking pictures of the 5 other ones... here are just a few..

Where is the time going???

Man, I can't believe that time is going so quickly... Seems like I Just got finished tending Hailey, and now Erin has gone back to work and I am tending Chloe.... She is such a smiley baby... Only cries when she is tired or starving with hunger..... messy pants don't even bother her, so I have to be alert and check her often...... ANYWAY... I love tending her, and it will be exciting when I get to start taking Lauren to Kindergarten and pick her up the days that I tend them..... Averi is starting pre-school this year, so she will go 3 days a week to learn all that their day care lady has taught Lauren over the past 2 years.... SO FUN

Have I been slacking or what??

Wow... to start, I can't believe that it has been this long since I blogged anything.... guess I have to confess that FaceBook has been introduced in my life,and that has seemed to consume my time.
Chloe is doing great... she was 13 pounds on Monday and doing great... She is starting to make little cooing noises and smiles for everyone all the time.. I am anxious to be able to start tending her on Tuesday....

Lauren and Averi had their swim lessons, and they come and swim in my pool quite a bit... Averi will finally jump from the step of the ladder into the water.. she is so funny... amazing what swim lessons can do to build a child's confidence in themselves...
Lauren will be starting school this fall, and she also is going to sign up for soccer. She is quite the little runner, but whether she will be able to kick the ball and run at the same time is yet to be seen.. but at least she has the opportunity to expand her interests.... and that is something very important during a child's upbringing....
Ok I have rambled on enough.
Have a great day
