My baby girl really isn't a baby anymmore!

This is early because I know I am going to have no time on Saturady to do it. May 2 is almost here and although it is a happy day it is almost just as sad to see my baby growing up so fast. McKenzie Irene Riley is going to be 3 and has been telling the whole world because she is so excited. Where did my baby go? The cute little bald chunky baby who has always been so advanced for her age, who now is more then half as tall as her big sister and has lost almost all of her chunkiness and has long curly hair that she refuses to let me do anything with. :) My Kenzie, I could use a million words to describe her but I will try to sum it up in ten
1- beautiful
2-emotional
3- polite
4-loving
5- whiny
6-imaginitive
7-shy
8-opinionated
9-helpful
10-caring

McKenzie finds love in basically anything, well except for meat that is. She is a great little sister and a wonderful big sister. She loves to read, dance, and sing. Her newest thing is telling jokes which is funny because she makes them up as she is telling them. her first word being momma I knew she would always be a mommas girl but I have to be honest she is just as much a daddy's girl who will even ask to watch baseball. Most days Faith will tell the world that she is her best friend and everyday when she talks to Thalan his whole face lights up with happiness.


Here is Kenzie at Christmas time a little older then 2 1/2!

Here she is 2 playing at the park.

Her 1st birthday! She still loves chocolate.

Just born! Why does this day seem so long ago.

She will always be my baby, but please don't tell her that because when i say it she corrects me and says no mommy I am your big girl! The first time she corrected me I cried.

I feel so blessed to be a mom, to 3 beautiful children everyday is a new adventure and although some of those day are spent so tired I can't tell you what day it is I get through it with them becaue of them.

We did it!

We are officially moved into the house and it is our home.

Now what to do with all these boxes! just kidding, but wow is there alot of work to be done unpacking everything and finding just the right place for it all. None the less it feel like home more then opur apartment ever did eventhough we will always cherish the momories of starting our family there.

Faith's first day in her new school went great. She made new friends and likes her new teacher. She says that Robert Graves is ahead of Highland in what they are learning so she is a step ahead which I think is so much better then being a step behind and feeling lost.

Kenzie slept in her big girl bed last night all night with out any issues. This is so exciting for us because she really hasn't slept in her big girl bed sense we got it, she always slept on the couch and with her sleeping issues I just couldn't fight it. I am so proud of her!

Thalan is getting so big, but my poor baby has been bounced around with different people watching him the past couple days I think it is a little overstimulating. He is a trooper though.

Sean and I well we are TIRED!!!!!!! One day I will sleep and wake up and feel as though I have slept until then Whatever.

Ok I have to start my day. I'll post pictures soon. Promise.

Busy Busy

Ok, with 3 kids I think I will never be not busy but this past weeek has put me to the test, and the final is tomorrow. I shall past even if it kills me.

Faith is returning to school today. It will be a sad day for her to day goodbye to the friends that she has made over the pst couple years, but she is very excited to move foward. She is such a trooper.

Kenzie is feeling so much better but she still has a horrible cough and the Dr. had me start nebulizer treatments.

Thalan has a cold Thank God it's not pnemonia, but none the less a cold for him with a cough and boggies is uncomfortable. Although he is still the happiest little guy around.

Ok, now today is the final day for packing, the big move is starting tonight, and by tomorow this apartment will be empty and our house will be more then full. It's crazy but even though we are gaining living space we are loosing space as well. We will survive. I am not complaining at all though I love the house and can not wait to make it my home.

So I am going to run, my mommy time is up and it's time to get my butt in gear for my very busy day.

Oh and happy late Easter. We had a nice day but to be honest it didn't feel like Easter. Not sure why.

It never ends!

I just wanted to say sorry for vanishing. Life has been crazy and getting crazier by the moment.

Quick catch up:

About 2 weeks ago Sean found a house for rent in Highland that ended up being perfect for what we are looking for so we will be moving the 15th of this month. I will post pictures as soon as I take them haha. Faith will be changing schools, but she is very excited to be honest. the house is a 3 bdrm with a enclosed deck, and a laundry room. There is a playground and a pool and we will be closer to Sean's work which will save us a ton in gas!

April 2nd Faith had her tonsils out. She is a trooper though and doing great, much more then I ever expected. No really she was eating real food by Saturday and talking by Sunday. She took pain medicine a total of 3 times. Get this her tonsils were so big the Dr. had to put stitches in her mouth to close the gaps!

Yesterday Kenzie had a fever that wouldn't break only for it to keep escalating. I called the Dr. made an appointment and was overcome with worry for my little girl that just didn't feel good. I would ask her if anything hurt naming various things and she would say no mommy I just really sick. She had a slight cough, and a runny nose and I was like hmm maybe bronchitis?I took her temp before we went to the Dr. and it read 104.4 I almost lost it with worry. Um no my baby girl has PNEUMONIA! Yes, you read that right, I don't know how or where it came from but the Dr. said that if she wasn't drinking she would have admitted her to the hospital. Being that she was so lethargic and she had such a high temp that wouldn't break. By the way it isn't gone but not as high as it was. Her and I haven't slept sense Sunday night and hopefully we are on the road of recovery with her having the right medicine.

OK I have to run because she needs me I will let you know how she is doing.
