Whew...

Man, am I behind. I haven't blogged in over a WEEK...that is just plain bad!! These are the latest pictures I have. I will just summerize again...

** Shayden is growing up so fast! We took her for her 4 month check-up & she weighed 13 lbs, 12 oz. & was 24 inches long! She is in the 50th percentile which is bigger than Bish at this age!!!! She talks ALL the time & is sometimes quite loud...don't know where she got that?! She wants to sit up so bad but of course she can't...she tries though. SHe loves to play in the saucer & with her gyms & of course BE HELD!! She is still not sleeping at night but she does nap well during the day (if only I could...:)!!!

** Bishop is growing equally as fast...I cannot believe that he will be four this weekend! It blows me away!! He is so smart that it scares me...he talks SO grown up. His thing right now is to add "you know" to the end of his sentence..., "That dog looks silly, you know." It is SO funny:)!!! We are working on writing our letters & learning the lower case alphabet. We are also working on the letter sounds. He loves to read & LOVES to play on the computer...he is already a computer geek:)! He can get online & play any of his websites or get on & paint. He is huge into Power Rangers...we don't let him watch the shows but he loves the action figures. He loves going to church & playing with his friends. He LOVES the park & anything that has to do outside!! He is just so big & so grown up...he is an amazing big brother. I am SO blessed to have these two precious children..most days I don't feel like I deserve THEM!!!

** Brad will finish his associates degree in TWO WEEKS!! It will be so wonderful to have my husband back!!! He has been so busy...it will be a relief to have him home more! He will probably wait a while to work on his bachelors...maybe when the kids get a little bigger...it is just too time consuming right now. I am really proud of him though...he has had to persavere through a lot!!!

** I am BUSY, BUSY, BUSY!! I thought since I quit the pre-school that I would be bored...HA HA!! The kids keep me ridiculously busy. We go to various activities...the local malls all have kids clubs that we go to. Of course, we go to McD's on Wednesday's. We go to pumpkin patches & parks & playgrounds...we are always on the go. It's fun though...a bit overwhelming at times but fun:)!

Have a GREAT week!!!!!!

SIX FLAGS!!

I haven't blogged about Bish's first trip to Six Flags yet but here are the pictures!! We had a blast & Brad was brave & rode the roller coasters with Jenn & I. Bish was VERY brave. He rode everything he was tall enough to ride, the mini-mine train, the log ride TWICE, Sponge Bob, the Batmobiles, even the Mexican hat! He loved it!! Strangly enough the only thing he didn't like was a ride made FOR kids...the Yosemite Sam thing. He played games, he walked a million miles & had a giant pretzel...he was in HEAVEN!! Brad, Jenn, & I went & rode all of the "big" kid rides in the morning...it was a lot of fun. I was SO proud of Brad:)!!!

Thank you Elizabeth for keeping Shayden so we could do this!!!
We had to buy one!! It was Bish's first trip to Six Flags:)!!! Look how brave he is!!! Posted by Picasa
