BOO!!!

By

Halloween always seems like a magical night in some ways. Little children running the streets dressed up in all kinds of costumes carrying trick-or-treat bags with just pure giddiness in the air. I love it.

Emmi was a chick this year. Wow...let me tell you she was the cutest chick I had ever seen. The costume was a big hit. She even managed to keep her hat on most of the time.


Early in the Evening we went up to see Grandma Jill, Papa Ric, Uncle Jonny, and Jeff, and of course Kitty. We had our traditional Halloween spaghetti dinner. Yummy!! We love it so much we all wonder why we only do it on Halloween. We did some trick-or-treating and Emmi was eating her candy as she went from house to house. Every 5 seconds she was asking for "chocolate".


Later in the evening Emmi went Trick-or-Treating with Ella up and down part of Keller Lane. Melanie, Emmi's cousin even joined in which was super exciting for Emmi. The three of them couldn't have been cuter. At one point they were all holding hands with their Trick-or Treat bags in hand. Until Emmi starting crying "OUIE" because Ella was holding Emmi's hand too tight. Too cute!

Lucy's Birth

By
Today I am going to sit down and take the time to journal Lucy's birth story.  My feelings are still so fresh and I want to remember my experience forever.  When I found out I was pregnant with Lucy I had feelings of apprehension and fear.  I wasn't ready for another baby nor was Brian to say the least.  I actually kept the news to myself for weeks, till I could no longer keep it to myself.  I knew that I had to keep working to keep the family afloat and if there were any complications we could not survive without my income.  Lots of prayers were said to keep this baby inside me so I could take care of our family and house.  To say the least my prayers were answered and this was the most smooth sailing pregnancies yet.  I was able to work part-time and at the end go full-time, and actually Brian and I were able to travel to Europe for 2 weeks when I was 24 weeks pregnant. Sweet! Since the day I told Brian I w...

I have "KIDS"

By
So, I find myself tripping out at the thought that I now have 2 kids. I was completely freaking out before baby Jack arrived due to the fact that I feel like Emmi is a handful and I can't imagine doubling that work. To get myself to calm down I would just tell myself, "everyone does it, right?" Well, to say the least it hasn't been a breeze so far. I am handling the baby fine. Yeah, some sleep deprivation, but Emmi has been a complete "2 year old" nightmare. I believe she is loving her baby brother, although she thinks that smothering, hitting, poking, jumping near his head, yelling in his ear, and collapsing to the floor everytime she doesn't get her way at that moment seems to be a good way to get attention. YIKES!!! My patience is wearing thin. I would LOVE any advice on handling two kids and most importantly handling a 2 year old with a new sibling. This is innocent Emmi loving her brother at the moment

Reality Check

By
Holy Cow.......Brian and were just relaxing on the couch enjoying some Christmas music, our Christmas tree and lighted mantle with the stockings hanging.  We had a reality check when we saw 5 stockings hanging.  We are almost a family of 5.  Wow.......pinch me!  We are getting so excited to welcome our newest 5th member of the family. It's amazing what two people can accomplish in 10 years.
