Little This.... A Little That...

HAHA That video makes me laugh everytime I watch it.  Soph requests a massage several times a week while trying to go to sleep.  I had to video it.... too funny to me :)!! Miss High Maintenance.

So It's 10:14 and I'm telling you.... I have a NIGHT OWL little boy.  He'd stay up all night I'm sure of it.  His eyes are getting a little heavy though thank goodness.

Okay.... so my sweet Momma has started going to Estate Sales in Florida on the weekends.  She found me this FABULOUS Ottoman for $5!!!! Yes you read right.... $5!!  I have been looking for one, but just haven't found "the one" yet.  So anyway.... she got it with the intentions of "us" covering it :)!!! (really her).   

And so yesterday off to T & C we went to find the perfect fabric.  I'm soooo excited.  Everything is coming together slowly but surely. 
Thankfully T & C has a little kid area..... the babies loved hanging out there.  Sophie loves books, so it was right up her allie.

Monday was my little brothers 20th birthday!!! No more teen years.  We went to the Japanese Restaraunt for supper to celebrate :)!!  LOVEEEEEE me some Japanese food :)!!!

Soph enjoed her self too *L*!!


She was "learning" how to use chop sticks *L*!




I think TW Had a pretty good birthday. 
That's a good lookin' family.... don't ya think :)!!

Gosh I am behind..... Heidi's Kindergarten program was this past Friday.  SOOOOO hard to believe she is almost officially a 1st grader.  My My My I seriously can hardly believe it.  You blink and the year is gone.  *sniffles*!! 

The program was soooooo cute!!! Our OES Teachers go out and beyond.... and we are sooo blessed to be a part of a school system like this.  Heidi LOVES school!!

Here she is with a couple of her friends and her cousin, Hank.



LOL This is the only picture I have of my and Bug from that day and she isn't even looking :(!!! Oh well it's okay.  After the program she spent the day with her friend, Presley, and they got pedicures and had all sorts of fun. 

Presley and Heidi :)!!

I LOVEEEEEEEEEEE THIS PICTURE OF HEIDI AND BABEE!!! DEfinately worth framing.

Me and my little handsome man before the show started :)!

Friday night, my bff Amanda, brought supper over and helped me recover my kitchen chairs.  We didn't finish the other night :-/!  But hey..... we "gotter done" this time :)!! They look great!!! Thanks Buck!
Of course since it was a girls night *L*!! We pigged out on brownies.  She's so crazy.... she ended up spending the night since her hubby was out of town.  It was so nice.....

Like the chairs :)??? I do :)!!! Now we can actually eat at the table and I won't be a nervous wreck.

She brought Tator Tot Casserole.  It was super yummy.


Yes she currupts my kids *JK*!!!  they LOVE Amanda!

She and Sophie slept together.... and they came in our room at like 6:26 AM... or before *L*!! Dancing and goofing off.  YAWN!!!!!!!!!


Oopsie..... this was Friday night after the chairs were covered... we had to go let her horses out.  The babies LOVED that!!!


This is a pretty good picture of Heidi Leigh and Kman!!

That umbrella was actually Tyler's when he was little :)!!! Karter LOVES it!

Okay so...... as most of you know, I can eat cereal 3 meals a day and be perfectly fine.... anyway the other day I went pour me some and the blooming box sliced my finger pretty good.  Never been injured by my cereal box before *L*!

HAHA Now you can't tell me that you look at this cute face and not smile.

HAHA My mom and Heidi LOVE Dancing With The Stars.... so last night she was texting us telling us who was on, etc..... so I took a picture of Heidi and sent it to her to show that she was glued to the show *L*!

Heidi asks to get Jaycee out of her pen pretty regular..... so I had to get a picture of her "leading" Jaycee.... but looks more like Jaycee is leading her :)!

KyKy and Heidi coloring :)

Okay.... so Soph does not even think twice sometimes about getting in trouble.  She is SOMETHING ELSE!!!  Anyway.... one day last week she got in trouble for hitting Karter and then she just bit him for nothing.  Sooooo she got a spanking and got in time out and it didn't phase her one iota!!! 

HEHE Kman stayed with mom last night and she sent me this picture of him jumping on her bed.  Funny what all they get away with at Grandparents houses *L*!!

MISS HOLLY WOOD!!!

Okay this was.... I think either last Thursday or Friday morning.  If I ever take a picture of all 3 kids in MY bed, then you know SOMETHING happened and it had to have been a rough night.  It was just that!!!  Sophie has been falling off the bed often.  I don't know how to keep her on without just strapping her to it.  There are pillows all on one side and a rail on the other.  She has fallen off almost every corner on that bed there is.  She is a ROUGH sleeper *L*!!!

:-) Me and sweet Bug Saturday at a baby shower.  I had a wedding shower and a baby shower Saturday.... whew.

Last night Soph was helping me put dishes up and she accidentally dropped one of our nicer bowls :(!!!  Oopsie!

HEHE.... Tyler sent me this of Kman the other day.... love this picture.

Video of Heidi Leigh doing her cartwheels :)!! She almost has her 1 handed cartwheel pretty good and she thinks she is something else *LOL*!!  Maybe not can get that backbend from standing, but can get the 1 hand cartwheel haha!

Mothers Day 2012


What a blessing it is to be Heidi, Karter, and Sophie's mom :)!! And I am not exagerating when I say that I feel soooo overwhelmingly thankful to be their Mommy! 

Yes they are 3 wild indians :)!!! But each day we are making new memories.  Some days of course are better than others, but we (I) try to make the best of each day. 

When God first blessed me to become a Mommy May 1, 2006, I cannot describe the feeling that I felt.  My dream had finally come true.  I do NOT take being a mother lightly :)!! Not everyone is as blessed to be able to have children, so I try to daily keep that in my mind.  Especially when mine seem to be trying their hardest to drive me CRAZY!!  Either way.... being a mother is the most remarkable, exciting, loving, hard, upsetting, rewarding privelege there is.



We started the day of course at church and ended the day at church... how nice :)!! 

After church we went to my moms house for lunch.  I also need to say that I am very blessed to have a wonderful mother!  I am so thankful that she is my mom and I know she is with me each and everyday.  I can always count on her to be by myside (may not be on time though LOL)... had to throw that in there mom :)!!  My mom is a fabulous grandmother.  There aren't too many days that go by that she doesn't see our precious children.  They love their Babee!!

Anyway... after lunch we just hung out... and we could hear a storm coming, so we went on a little 4wheeler ride :)!! 



We hung out at Moms for a good bit and then headed to my dads to see my wonderful Step Mom :)!!  I am so thankful that God put her in my life. 

LOL Heidi drew a picture of Me for  Mothers Day :)!!  I love seeing her image of ME.... ya know?? Like through her eyes.




Okay.... i know it's hard to see this next one because it's sideways, but the kids and I made these Sunday Morning.  Instead of Sunday School moms and their preschoolers had Muffins For Moms... I love that time :)!!  Anyway.... Kmans is the first one... I joke saying his petals are just falling off the flower :)!)! Sophie's is actually the middle one.... hers stood the best of all three... and Heidi Bug... well hers just didn't last long
 Okay so my FABULOUS hubby surprised me with this beautiful Sorrelli necklace.  He actually called me Saturday since I wouldn't be able to talk to him again until Sunday afternoon and sent me on a scavenger hunt to find it :)!! I was really impressed that he remembered Mothers Day before he left.  Pretty good fella!!! And I LOVE my surprise :)!!
After church Sunday night we went to Kyle's Mom to see her for Mothers Day :)!!  Which we go there most every Sunday night, so to the kiddos it was just our normal routine.  After we ate supper, Heidi Leigh was steadily doing what she does every 5 minutes.... cart wheel after cartwheel and hand stand after hand stand.
 HAHA This picture of Kman is funny to me.  Mostly because I can still go back to the exact conversation.  He was so serious on the way to church... had  his leg crossed and was very busy telling me about his Daddy being on a big boat and a big airplane.... his normal conversation, just this time it was much more serious to him *L*!

These 3 precious kiddos are so wonderful.... and I have a GREAT Mothers Day just being with them.

My Dad and Yana surprised me with this phrame :)!! I absolutely LOVE it!!!  Soooo special!

Karter Man got sick at school last Thursday, so I had the honor of staying home with him for most of the day.  We even got to pick Heidi up from school.  After school we got Snow Cone treats :)!! 

Mrs. Hightower is a WONDERFUL Kindergarten teacher.  Her class made us moms these beautiful flower pots with a very pretty flower in it.  I LOVE them. 






So as you can see..... my Mothers Day was wonderful.  I sincerely hope that yours was too.
