Glasses For Ashley

Ashley's new look. She loves them and I'm glad. They have so many cute choices these days it was hard to pick. So I pretty much left it up to her.

A Recent of My 3 Girls

Kiley doesn't like this thing much because she only goes backwards. I don't like it because she runs into the walls. So therefore, it's time to make it a driveway toy for when we're hanging outside. Mak...she's a mess ALWAYS! Always dirty and into something. She has pants on, it's just the bloomers to a dress. She changes MANY times a day. Ashley, she's just EASY!!

Learning To Walk Is The Next Step

Kiley learning to walk with her toy. When she fell she hasn't quite caught that you need to let go and it flipped over on her. She wasn't happy about it and I'm sure she wasn't happy I was taking pics instead of helping her. :-) I twas just a first moment I had to capture. She likes to walk on her tip toes which is making it difficult.





Chivas Soccer Fundraiser

We had a trash pick up fundraiser for the Chivas. We picked up about 40 bags of trash on top of the cave my mom works for. It actually wasn't that bad! The girls found a bike and really wanted it to work, but the tires were flat and really bent. Then we found a monkey thing that someone probably won at a carnival. All in all it was easy money for our team & community service is always good for kids to learn just how good they have it!







Everyone Loves Ice Cream

Kiley had her first taste of a low-fat fudgesicle & loved it!





Kiley...Pulling Up Is The First Step

I feel like I post alot about Kiley, a little bit about Makayla, & nothing about Ashley. Well, truth is, kids do/learn more in their first year of life than any other year. So therefore, I'm taking pictures of all the 1st happenings. Plus, sometimes Ashley is with her dad and is unfortunately not able to be in all the pictures. :-( A few of her coming soon though.... Anyway, Kiley started pulling up on things this month and able to stand on just about anything. She even found the tupperware drawer! She's not much for just sitting around. She likes to be held ALOT, crawls to find me and try to climb up my legs, or I have to stand her on something so she can see what I'm doing.







Fun After The Snow

Makayla played dress up in one of Ashleys old Halloween costumes (which are the best things ever to keep!) Then when I wasn't looking like a bad mom, she put Kiley in a laundry basket and she just sat there like it was no big deal!






Snow In March

We had about 7 inches of snow at our house in MARCH! It was fun to play in though as you can see. Makayla loved it and it was the first time all winter we were actually able to play. I just wish Ash had been home this day. :-(

Ashley Loves Being Big Sister...well, Sometimes

Ashley & Kiley remind me so much of eachother as babies. They look quite a bit alike too, which alot of people say is like me. I tried to get the other picture turned, but it wasn't working. It was a cute picture though, so I had to keep it on. Ashley is a big helper with Kiley even though I know sometimes she gets tired of it. Sometimes my hands are just full doing something else and so it's wonderful having her help! She loves to snuggle with Kiley & reads all the time to Makayla. She's a great big sister!




Kevin Turned 32

On February 20th Kevin celebrated yet another wonderful year. We went out with some friends on Friday night for dinner and a couple of drinks. Then Saturday night his mom & dad came over for enchiladas, oatmeal cake that his mom makes that's wonderful, & then a little play time with the girls. Then on Sunday another party at my moms where we had dinner & cake/ice cream. Luckily we cheat on our diets on weekends. Kevin has lost 15lbs so far and I've lost 10lbs. We are eating healthier & working out 5-6 days at the gym. The girls are adjusting to it too....for one, we eat alot of chicken & ground turkey, plus wheat everything if we have any carbs at all. Then of course, lots of fruits and vegetables. So all in all, it's good for everyone. Here are a few pics of the birthday celebrations.....
