In Oct

I get my niece and 2 nephews for 5 days. I'm so excited. So are the kids. Little (not so little)William is Matthews twin and i just LOVE him. Him and Matthew act just the same, look the same except Matthews blond and William has brown hair. Kaitlen is about to explode with excitement over having Emily here for that long. SLUMBER PARTY TIME!!!!! Code and Em are close in age and grew up together so they have fun, but Em and Katy have the "girly" thing going. Then Chris and Thomas can 'hang'.

Dinner

Went great. We got there a little after 6. When we sat down Ben asked if i wanted to call the kids. I said no, lol. He asked didn't i want to know what they were doing?? I told him I knew what they were doing. They were running around the house like wild children!!! We order a Bloomin Onion, yum and a salad and then our dinner. After that we got a coffe and walked around the pet store. The Ferrets were SOOOOOOO funny!! Ben also told me i couldnt have a corn snake no matter how much I whined and cried. I think they are so colorful and pretty. They have one there that is a tiny tiny baby, but has actually grown since the last time i saw it. I guess the last time i saw it was when we got Beau's stuff. We got home at 8. I know, it sseems impossible to drive to and from and do all that inbetween, but we did. I thought we'd be gone closer to 3 hrs........... My Sister-in-Law amde me a carrot cake. It was so good, better than any i have ever had. She is so funny, they gave Kaitlen Emily's canopy bed (a while ago) well i put the bed up but not the canopy. She found all the peices under the bed and put it together for Kaitlen, It looked SOOO cute. The only kid to really miss me was Matthew, he's a Mama's boy!!
Oh, we did make it half way through the meal before we started talking about the kids. We are pretty sure we narrowed our last dinner together to Steak-n-Stein in Ca.

Thomas

What? shouln't I be like 100%, LOL

Cody!!

Kaitlen!!!!!

Abbie!

Matthew!!

haha, i win!!

my kwazy wabbit

Last night when I went to bed i guess i only put the two cage doors together instead of hooking the. Well Mr Beau figured this out and had free run of the house from 2am till 7am. He even hopped around our room while we slept (he left evidence behind) Can you imagine if ben had got up to go to the bathroom and he bumped into to something that big and fuzzy, LOL.
I thought we were home free from any chewing damage, but i was cleaning the toy room and found he ate the speaker wire to the kids computer. It could have been worse, lucky rabbit, he could have fried himself.

Abigail

This girl needs to slow down. She can walk while you hold her hand. Where did my baby go??

Sammy

wants to eat our rabbit!!!!! Sammy stays outside and we let beau run around the den. Wellll sammy sees beau through the sliding door. She stays glued to it following up and down and sometimes jumping. Beau doesnt have clue that some glass seperates him from life or death. Beau's probably thinking, HAHA you cant get me.

I made it

I think i can make my own signature for Ivillage now

actually i made this one real quick the other day it just a pic with text above and below

My pictures

The pictures that Geek Squad got off my old computer was really close to 9,000 pictures. That was in 3 yrs.

Miss Kitty

I forget i took these pics. They are part of the ones recovered. I probably took these right before my computer freaked out.

Abigail

Can walk using one of those push toys!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'll take pics tomorrow.

more pics i scanned

We were in vegas and my mom gave kaitlen her first jello, yummmm

Kaitlen 3 days old, not sure what was up with all the blankets, lol, must have been cold in Ca, like 65 degrees or something...

Kaitlen Marie Matilda

Dinsneyland trip, i was 5 months pg with Matthew. Would you believe i was having contractions that early.

Betty and the 3 musketeers waiting for the parade

Cody and Emily. We were in line for its a small world

The Last Mimzy

We just watch the movie The Last Mimzy and I thought oh how cute. I bet they make that stuffed rabbit. ummm, they do and it's sold out but ofcourse you can get it on Ebay!! i put in to recieve an email when there is another release of the rabbit. It comes in regular plush for 25$ or collectors chenille for 60$ (that one is going for 120+$ on ebay)

Cute, Huh?... suppose to be a release in fall for Christmas. Maybe K and A's birthday gift?? i don't know. We'll see.

* I had it totally wrong the Chennille is the 25$ one (authorized replica)and it is the one selling for 120+ on ebay. The collector one(not sure what its made from) is not on ebay, i could imagine how much if it was

A date, finally

My sister-in-law called me asking what we were doing for my birthday and she said they'd come watch the kids while Ben and I go to dinner. With no kids...... we can sit at the table and talk to each other....... uninterrupted!!!!!!! Where should we go eat??? Ben suggested Brioso Brazil. i dont think i want to drive that far.
My SIL's birthday is the day after Codes so they'll come down and I'll watch their kids while they go to dinner!!
oh, Anna, i'll take one of your famous cakes too ;o)

new pics, yea!!!!!!!!

Lasagna face!!! yummy

Abbie sporting a vintage Carters nightgown. I bought them off ebay when K was a baby. Did you know way back in the day Carters wasn't top of the line it was for those who couldn't afford the best. Funny how things change. It was weird to Betty that Carters is on top now. Her boys wore Carters too. These gowns only have 3 snaps at the top on the front and the rest is open. Very nice summer gown....... Carters needs to bring them back.

Hey mom, Your not trying to work are you?!?!?!
Aaaalmmmost, just a littllllee more, and the bird is mine!!

thats our bird Tiki

Kaitlen dressed herself and i realized she had a theme and didn't know it. now if she just had her cowgirl hate on she'd be ready to go hay the fields. (dont ask why i had the camera with me in the bathroom because i dont know, I swear i do put my camera down)

What a ham.......

very tempting!!!

For Abbie, she has a temper!!!!!!!!!! that makes Kaitlen look like an angel!!!!

Happy Labor Day Weekend!!
