Life is to short. I have lived and learned and realized that there is no other way to live except for one day at a time. Each day has a new beginning nomatter how it ends.

I am so grateful
Well, I know I don't get on here much but I wanted to take some time today.
Yesterday I went looking for something and realized that every store now has Christmas stuff out everywhere. Well, blame the hormones but it made me cry. Thalan will be here in no time and as excited as I am to meet my little man I am nervous about being a mom of three!
Faith amazes me every day. I look at her and can't believe she was Kenzies age when I first meet her. How time flies. Now she is a second grader and a big sister to almost two. Which I have to say she is very good at. She will tell the world that Kenzie is her best friend, and can not wait to meet her little brother. She talks to him all the time and promises to love him as much as she loves Kenzie (so cute). She can read like a champ and even though we have had many struggles getting to where she is with reading she has learned that hard work pays off in the end.
McKenzie is simply incredible. I look at her most days and wonder where did my two year old go. Being that she has Faith and Sean and I talk to her at a big girl level has so much to do with it but my goodness does she really say the most big kid things. Last week I took her for her very first haircut. We get in the car and I said Kenzie are you ready to go get your Hair cut. She replies with mommy are you kidding me I am getting my haircut. I looked at her and couldn't help but laugh. Then when we went and saw daddy he tells her how cute she looks to which she replies well, mommy made me get a haircut. Once again all I do is laugh because what two year old says that. I could go on forever but won't. My little girl is getting so big.
Sean has gone above and beyond for the sake of being a wonderful husband and father. Always showing me how much I mean to him and reminding me of how great of a mom I am. Being that I have been on edge about everything and overwhelmed by the fact that not only do we have so much to do before Thalan gets here but we need to get ready for the holidays early he has been my rock. Doing things before I can get to them, taking the kids so I can rest. Reassuring me that it will all be ok, and making sure I am ok above all. I love him and so glad God has brought us together.
My family will always be my life and I will be forever grateful that this is the life I have.

We have named our little boy!
In December we will be having a little boy and we decided that his name will be
THALAN JAMES RILEY!
I am so excited over having a name finally (hey it only took countless battles over 7 months)
Thalan is Irish with the meaning of Charming.
James is my dads name who will is and always will be my best friend.
Riley well, thats a given.
We also decided that the nickname TJ will be ok.
For those of you that don't know when we decided on McKenzie Irene.
McKenzie is Scottish for leader
Irene is Seans grandmothers name who is and always will be his best friend
Riley Same as above haha.
The thing is we decided on spelling her name the way we did because with the spelling of Mackenzie (traditional) we were afraid of the nick name Mac. So we all call her Kenzie now and we are happy.
Well there is a little background.
