Updates
K so I made a promise and I didn't keep it. I am a loser and I know it...LOL.
Well I have completed 3 pages of McCoy's scrapbook so I thought I better get them on here before I yell at myself and whoever else wants to yell at me.
The first one isn't my favorite. But I am trying out a new way to complete pages and fast. So I have found all these quick pages online... that are free might I add. And templates. The cover page is a template and I don't think I was feeling the freedom of creativity that day. But the other two pages are quick pages that I just threw my pix and added text to. Thanks to Bethany with Elegant WordArt the sayings are cute. Well I think I only used her Star is Born saying on these but I love her work.
You should check out my links to all the free stuff.
So that is up date for Scrapbooking. Other then that. We are all doing great. McCoy is growing so big. He is super long... in the 75th% for his height and 70th% for his weight. He holds his head up quite well too. Actually just yesterday we put him in his "Johnny Jumper" and he loved it. I will throw those pix on her after our naps.
Cooper is still hefty but such a cuddle bug. He looooooooves his blankets. Honestly, he is my little Linus from Peanuts. In fact I plan on making a scrap page to depict this. I have taken a few pix of him and his blankets adventures throw the mud, snow, rain and shine. So it just might be a little while for me to catch up to that though.
I don't know should I wait to scrap the new pix or get the new ones out and then go back. You scrapbook addicts tell me what you do?
Dylan is WOW! That is all I can say right now. No for really he is a little man. I laugh everytime he leaves the house to go play at "Risa n Kara's" or now it is "the Walton's" He makes me laugh because we have this routine of words now. I say have fun and he says I will and then I say Be careful and he says I will (almost like... mom are you serious) and then I say I love you Dyli and he smiles and says I love you mommy have fun and I will be back.
I just smile and watch him out the window as he strolls on down the street to the Walton's. See WOW! My little guy is growing up.
Kendrick is coming out in one week from today.... WHOA! We are so excited. I am planning a "Half-Birthday Party" for him in June. Because he isn't ever here for his birthday. We are going to have everything in half. I am sending out a invite that looks like half the paper... I hope everyone gets it. Brett told me to only send half the info and then people will have to RSVP to get the rest of the info. LOL He thinks he is so funny sometimes. And So do I for that matter.
Anyway, we are planning the half invite, half hot dogs and half hamburgers (of course you can have more then one) and half birthday sign and half birthday cake. Can anyone else think of how I can make this more fun? Please send me your input.
Also we will be having his baptism this summer. As of right now we are planning for the 20th of June. But Lesley is suppose to get back with us today to let us know if that will work. We know it is Father's Day weekend but we have no other options. And I want to make sure that he is baptized at the beginning of the summer so he can have the rest of the summer to go to church and really let it sink in... instead of just rushing it at the end of the summer and sending him back to Arizona where he won't have the church until he comes back out for christmas. So that is why we do the things we do :)
Well Brett is still super busy with Consulting clients either for Michaelis Consulting, Iconnect Strategies, or his full time job UVU in the Web Development Services Department. He is so busy that he has a hard time finding time to sleep and eat and do all the stuff that your body needs. But I will hand it to him... he doesn't sleep because that is when he works without the kids and he doesn't work when the kids are awake so he can have family time. I sure love him. He is seriously the best thing that has ever happened to me.
I've often tried to think of how life would be had I done it my way and yeah... we just don't go there. I really don't think I would know how unhappy I would be because I wouldn't know how truely happy I am right now. But I am just thrilled to have him in my life.
As for me, Well I need some sleep. The boys are down for a nap and holy cow it has been almost 2 hours... so I might not get much of a nap yet I am going.
Hope this is what everyone wanted as an update. I will try to do better. My friends blogs are always so cute and full of fun. So that is my goal. I guess I could always lie and make it look like I have all the cute ideas. :) just kidding. I do have some I just don't have time to post them between all the kids and doing the activities and then yeah getting them on here is my problem.
Well enough of this... I've got to take a nap while I can.
Take care.
