A little late..

Happy Halloween!!!

The kids had two day s of halloween this year and recieved enough candy for two months. Friday we had Kenzie's Halloween party at school ,which was very cute. I love seeing little kids dressed up. Friday night faith had a Halloween party at a friends house which was great. Thalan kindof just went along for it all, but I have to say he was and is the cutest tigger ever.


Here is Faith with her Vampire pumpkin that she painted at the party.



Here is Kenzie in the little parade at school. She was a musketeer princess.

Thalan James bouncingat me to grab the camera. Love this pic even though it's blury.

A little late but better then never.

Looking foward to next Halloween already. I got pumpkin carving kits on sale yesterday 75% off. I have loved Halloween sense I was a kid, and it's just as great as an adult.

So I am asking you all to follow my blog, ask your friends and send outthe word. I will folow you if you follow me:) Even though I may follow you already and this is why I am asking.

Does anyone have any helpful hints on how to get more followers. Please let me know.

Halloween weekend with a broken camera:(

Okay I know I am not the best at posting pictures everyday like some people do, and believe i want to. I really do. Know though, I can't. My camera broke:( UGH! Right before the holidays, what to do. So for Halloween i will buy a disposable one I guess, they now make digital disposables which is great. But I really need a new camera and I don't think it is in the budget. Hmm maybe I can tell hubby it is an early Christmas present. We will see...

So Halloween plans are as follows....

Thursday Faiths school Halloween party, which I just found out about last night and I will be seeing if I can escape from work to go?

Friday kenzies halloween party at school then Faith has a friends Halloween party friday night. They are both so excited and to be honest I am too.

Then Saturday they both get to dress up for dance in costume, I think it will be so cute seeing all the little ones dressed up.

Saturday night friends and family are gathering here so we can all go trick or treating together.... I am sooo excited. I want to dress up but don't have any good ideas.

So that is it, then well Sunday it's back to work. I am soo looking fowards to this weekend.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!

Being Selfish!

I know once a bluse moomn I update on the kids. Truth be told I wish I took my time everyday and just wrote an update. Then again as the truth has it , I just don't have the time.

I am not writting to let you know that all the kids are wonderful, and they are. To tell you there latest accomplishments because they do have so many, but to whine a little.

To start:
I love my life , I do. My three amazing beautiful children fill my life with so much joy that it makes me wonder how I got so lucky. Each one of them and I have such a wonderful realtionship. Sean and I are incredibly happy living our lives for our children sneeking in moments of daddy mommy time which is usually spent catching eachother up on the kids or work.

I have been promoted at work to assistant manager. I am so proud of myself for climbing the ladder so fast. I started at Dunkin in June and took time off from November to May for MY little big guy. The started again in May and I am now an assistant manager a place where it usualy takes people years.

So now I am a full time working mom that is scared at the same time is so excited for the life that I am living everyday.

Faith: My beautiful third grader who is little girl trying to find her way and becoming stronger everyday as an individual.

McKenzie: My preschooler who is so big and so smart but still so little and learning more everyday.

Thalan James: My angel from above who has taught me better then anyone in this world that there is always a reason to smile.

Working as much as i do I am sad and miss my family. Sometimes it makes me very bitter. To know that I am missing out on things that they do when I am gone. I know in my heart that this is what I have to do for them that I need to listen to myself when I explain myself to them when they question why mommy has to go. That without mommy working we can't do special things like dance or go on vacations to exciting places. I usually leve out the pay the bills part:)
Faith hates when I am not here when she wakes up or goes to bed. So I have changed my schedule so it's only tops twice a week she wakes to no mommy, and never goes to bed without mommy kisses. Kenzie just cries and begs for me not to go, because my little Connie can not handle the mommy leaving. Thalan whines when I say goodbye and hand him off. Then again when I am driving home I smile just thinking about the hugs I get when i walk in the door.

I am scared though , scared that I can not handle juggling both and that something might fall and break.

Then what happens?

Update with pictures.

So here are some newer pictures of the kids, I know bad mommy they are from last month. This was the first day of school for both of the girls. Yes the outfits match but that was them not me and at least they are different colors:) Thalan just waking up was the cutest Sean put him to bed with no shirt and when I went in to get him I was like um can you say Sean JR. HAHA. My little big man.

The girls are doing great in school.
Faith at the moment is working on a big project about the Moon. Is excelling in Math and reading chapter books almost quicker then I can supply them. She's funny because she knows mommy will never say no too buying books, I am truley amazed by how far she has come.
Kenzie amazes me by what she knows and gets to show off in school. They give the kids pictuers and do things like tell them to circle objects that start with a certain letter or color everything with a certain letter this color. She does them all perfectly and we are so proud.
Thalan, as I call him my little big man is just that. Sence birth he has always been right on target for clothes, that is until a week ago ans nothing 9 months fit him anymore. He now is in 12 months at 10 months which is fine by me, but holy cow I swear he was in 9 months for only a week. His second top tooth is just pushing itself through and my boy loves to eat, I already am scared of my grocery bill in years to come. lol.
Sean and I are good. They recently opened the walkway in Highland. Click here to learn more about it. If it doesn't rain this weeken hopefully I will get to walk it with the kids.www.walkway.org and his store is busier then ever. I on the other hand am beiong promoted to assistant manager in my store.
So as usually we are busy. Life is good though really good.

I am not sure why this pictures are a little fuzy sorry.

quick update.

Even though I know you all can I can't believe how long it's been sense I posted last. Sorry.

Just a quick update. Still have to put pics on the computer:(

Faith in 2 weeks will be a 3rd grader, and in 3 weeks will be 8 years old! It's so crazy. She was excepted into the Leap program for school, which I think will be so good for her. I am also looking into signing the girls up for dance. Faith will be in a hip hop class which I know she will love.

Kenzie is going into pre-school :( I am happy for her but I can not believe I am school shopping for her already. She is only going 3 days a week, but I think that will be a good start. She is very excited but sad she can not take the bus with sissy yet. The pre-school is through our church and I have heard excellent things about the program. She is growing up so fast.
Kenzie will be taking a kinder dance class, she loves to dance and it will be cute to watch her.

Thalan James is 8 1/2 months old already. He is not only crawling and cruising but trying to walk. I have to say that I am not pushing it though;) I am holding onto him being a baby. Maybe a little to much though. I realized yesterday that I ahve not given him an ounce of table food and it never even crosses my mind. I guess it's because he only has his two bottom teeth and by this time Kenzie refused to eat baby food and had a mouth full of teeth. His Baptism was wonderful it did rain allday but it didn't matter. At the end the sun was shining!
All three kids are so different, which is fine by me it makes me realize that I am blessed in so many different ways when it comes to my own kids. It makes me a better mom.

Sean and I are great, working working and oh ya more work. This weekend we have a date to go out early for our Anniversary. Still not sure what we are going to do but I am excited to spend some time with him alone!
I'll beback to update more with pics soon.

please!!!!!!

I know this sounds really silly, and i hate to ask but please pray for good weather tomorrow. It is Thalan's Baptism and we are having his party at a recreation park with about 50 close family and friends. I would just love to see everyone be able to have a good time on a beautiful day enjoying life instead of under a pavilion complaining about the weather.

I know whatever happens is in Gods plan and being that it is his and Thalans Day tomorrow I feel almost selfish but to be honest its been a rough week, so I need a nice day of sunshine too.
