While I was waiting for this to load, Lexi came to me to get the knots out of her Junk Roke (jump rope) i tried to tell her how to say it right but she insisted on calling it junk roke!! I had to write it down because those are the things I want to remember.
Here is a quick video of carters latest trick. I had another video of carter trying to chase kimber but it was to long and so the file was to big but it was so funny! it's almost like he's a person now!!!
Ok so yesterday at church during sunday school, Carter was playing on the floor and made his way to the chair in front of us. he started gumming the leg of the chair so I picked him up to rub his gums for him and guess what I found?!! A tooth! a sharp little poky thing right there in his mouth. so I am excited . He is so much like Ashlyn in so many ways that this just adds to the list because she had two teeth by 6 months and I did not even know she got her first tooth because she never showed signs of it.
Ok, so haveing four kids that are so close in age should be fun and exciting right? well it is, dont get me wrong but can I say it is a whole lot more work! I have some pictures here to just show SOME of the crazy things I see and have to put up with. I will have to explain some of them so bare with me!
Ok This first picture is a reproduction in a more safe environment. I gave the girls baggies of cheetos the other day and of course Kimber took hers into the living room and dumped them all on the floor. well Carter was playing on the floor at that time too and just llike a fly to honey he goes to the cheetos. Now you might be thinking, what how did he do that? Well carter is now 5 months and now he flops him self all over the the place like a little seal and sits himself up. Yes pretty soon she will be full on crawling. so anyway he gets to the cheetos and before I can get to him he has it in his mouth. now cheetos desolve pretty well and quick so i kinda just let him suck on it to see what he would do. He loved it. I took the chunk out of his mouth before he could sollow it but i had to get his first people food on camera so I put him in his high chair and gave him another one.
OK this picture of Kimber I had to edit a little bit. She is wanting to potty train and keeping clothes on her is so hard so needless to say she was naked. The girls are big into coloring right now so they were all out in the living room coloring. I was walking back and forth putting things away when I walked by a glanced at the table and kimber was sitting there watching me walk by with a huge smile and this in her nose. it took me a second to realize that she had a crayon in her nose but i took a detour grabbed the camera and cought this picture! this is not the only thing she has ever put in her nose either. we had to get the tweezers a few weeks ago and get a pink bead out.
This is just of her using the potty. I am trying to make it a big deal when she goes and this kinda stuff helps.
I love her exression here. she is doing the typical mom reaction. thinking that if she opens her mouth it will help him!
Right after this picture was taken she got some of te food on her hand and it grossed her out and she quit!
Well it has been a
very long time since I logged in and updated any information so here goes the readers digest version. We have had two more kids and bought our own business. Kimber Lynn was born in August of 2006 and Carter Wayne was born in February of 2008. Ashlyn and Lexi are doing wonderful and every day gets more and more interesting. We bought the company that Jesse was working for in 2006. The owner was ready to move on to other things so Jesse took over. It has been really hard the last two years but a great learning experiance for the both of us. so here are some pictures to update the last two years.
Hello everyone. I know I have not updated this in a while but here are some more pictures of the girls. Also for those of you who don;t know, I am Pregnent again! yes i know we are crazy but it is a great blessing. I am do at the end of August which is not a blessing in the arizona heat but at least I am at home with the girls now and we can hit the pool everyday!
Ok Grandma Sue inspired me to update my site when I saw her great blogspot! We do have a little bit of new news. I have decided to stop working and stay home with the girls full time! We prayed long and hard and after some time things have fallen into palce. I will be hard for a while but I think we will be ok. I know I love being with the girls. My first week was a little challenging though, Lexi got pretty sick and all I did for 3 and and half days was hold her. Ashlyn had had it the week before Lexi so needless to say we have not done much the last couple of weeks. Poor Ashlyn was getting pretty stir crazy! They are getting better although I still think it is going to put a damper on this years Halloween party's! For some reason other parents dont want their kids to get sick, Silly huh! Here is just a couple of pictures of the girls in October 2005. Oh the picture of all the papers on the floor is a funny story, The short version is Ashlyn got in the Library and pulled all our files out and Jesse found her standing in the drawer! that girl will get into anything!!! we Hope you are are well and hope to hear from you! Much love Chelsea
I can't believe how time fly's! Lexi rolled over for the first time on Saturday 9/10/05. I thought maybe it was a fluke because she only did it once but sunday and Monday she was a rolling over fool~!! any time now that I put her on her back she goes right to her tummy! It's so fun to watch her grow up. Of corse Ashlyn is right there with her. I tried to put her shoes on her Sunday and They did not fit! She must have grown over night! Not too much else is going on. I have had a couple of Dr's appointments about my Thyroid. We will have to see how that comes out. They think it's going to fast so I may have to take medicine. hopfully not. Well I hope everyone is doing great, I would love to hear from everyone!
Well I have said it before that that I could not get some good pictures of Lexi and that has stayed true. I have been able to get one or two here and there. It also is hard when I have a helper named Ashlyn. She loves her sister but she does it a little too much and makes Lexi mad... We blessed Lexi on July 31, 2005 so here are a couple of pictures of that. I have finally been able to put Ashlyn's hair in ponytails so you can see that too. We love you all and miss you!
Well I wish I could get a good picture of Lexi but every time I try she makes a face or the flash gets her upset so here is a couple that came out ok.
Well we finally after two years, have landscaped the backyard. All I can say is THANK GOODNESS!! Jesse said when we first moved in that all he wanted was cabinets for the garage and a nice backyard. well now he has both. I have to admit that I am excited too because now Ashlyn has a place to play. We put lots of grass and very nice trees back there. It will take a while for the trees to mature in to nice shade but that is ok.
Here is a look at it before (we forgot to take a before picture but here it is after it was trenched for the pipes):
