Dumb idea

So about a month ago I made the twins and everyone an appointment for there flu shots and the babies well child check up for Oct. 30th. Well the babies received 3 shots and Tati had 4 shots and luckily the flu mist. Any ways~~~ I'm just informing you all this is a dumb idea, duh? This morning the babies woke up angry as ever. Crying every time they stand up and grabbing there little chunky legs crying "OWY, OWY!!" What was I thinking? Tati was a little sore, but still geared up to do the trick or treat marathon. Chelsea just had to have the flu shot. She could not have the mist because she has asthma. So her arm is a little sore, but she has one good arm to hold the goody bag! And yes, she's too big to hang out with us or cuddle~ But she won't miss trick or treating with us (at least I still have this). Hopefully after a warm bath the babies will feel better and be ready for the big day. I will keep you all informed. Or if I don't post for a few days, I went insane!!! Ha Ha!

Play with the tent




They babies are playing in the tent Auntie Jann and Uncle Kevin gave them. They were playing hide-n-seek. But every time I break out the camera they stop??!??

Pumpkin Carving












We carved pumpkins at Auntie Lisa's Saturday. I'm not sure if we do this for ourselves or the children. Half way through the cleaning out of the carcass Chelsea gave up. Of course, damn it were carving pumpkins rather you like it or not!??! Any ways I finished Chelsea's. I'm getting pretty good at it, from the many years of completing the kids. Tati's turned out great, and she finished it! Then the kids played in Auntie Lisa's leaves. And later I cleaned leaves out of every where possible on the babies. All in all it was a successful holiday celebration! Next the Great trick or treat!

MMmm grandma gave me ice cream!! Last night we celebrated Grandpa's birthday at Golden Coral. Yes that's right, my family is now so big that the only place that can handle us is the BUFFET!! Whatever happened to Spencer's Steak House? But it was grandpa's choice. He wanted to go where the kids could have fun. And they did. Jesse had a whole plate of chocolate brownies, chocolate cake, chocolate cupcakes and of course a little ice cream with a whole lot of candy on it. He couldn't figure out why he had a belly ache later that night???
Jeff teaching the kids wonderful table manner's. And this is after I yelled at him for shooting spit balls through a straw. Sometimes I don't know who to yell at first.

Oh so cute!






I'm in the back acting like I don't know them.

sticker fun

Sorry this is so dark. It's video from my cheap camera.

Our Big Friday Night

Last night was primping night. Jeff went to a hockey game with some friends, so Lisa, the kids and I did facials. We did seaweed facials and hand treatments. Obviously there is no picture of Lisa and I on purpose! My teenager~ Chelsea is never home on a Friday. She's too cool for us?? She went to the corn maze with her homies! Sure miss Friday night, girly night with her. Maybe she will come back around when she's about 30???

Always 20mins late

So I know you all are thinking how did I find the time to create the blog yesterday? Well in my short window of nap time I started. Usually this is house cleaning, laundry and yes shower time for me. So needless to say by noon the house was a mess, laundry on the couch and beautiful me in my PJ's. But we still have to pick Chelsea up by two. So we need to start getting ready at one. I get Madi dressed, then Christina. By the time Christina is done, Madison has undressed herself and we have to start over. Ok now we have like 15 min. Kids look great! Still dressed. But me, still no shower. Throw on jeans and a hat. It gets better!!! Work calls (I'm off today), I need to go in for a few things. In a lapse of sensibility, I think I will just take them with me??? So pick Chelsea up, drive Chelsea all over the damn town. I still have time to stop at work. Go to work do my thing. OOps I have to run and get Tati from school. Do you know it takes about 10 min to get twins buckled and in the car? Run to get Tati. Notice her on the street almost half way home. Oh and yea pissed way off at me. I'm about 20 min late. So like any other perfect mother, I will make up for my guilt and buy her something. So off to McDonalds we go!! We eat, we play. Still Tati is not talking to me. So moral of story. I'm always about 20mins late. But in a 12 year old mind this is death by silence treatment!!!

Halloween costume tryouts

Trying on our Halloween costumes. Christina wants nothing to do with it. She is a duck if you can't tell.
My ham! The little pumpkin.

Madison and the witch

We have this animated witch that talks when you clap your hands. Madison will sneak up on it, touch it and run!!

Our Family












I know each day passes so quick. So I created this blog. I want friends and family to enjoy the blessing of life with us!

We are truly blessed with four beautiful girls. I think this was God's answer to Jeff's prayers. Jeff has always asked God to surround him by beautiful girls! I don't think this is what he meant. Ha, Ha!! God is laughing now.

I never thought at this time in my life I would be teaching one to drive and one to poo poo in the potty.

Each lesson is a challenge. But the rewards are GREAT! Watching my oldest climb in the drivers seat scares the hell out of me. But I have raised her to be responsible and I have all the confidence that she will make the correct choices. I look at her in awe every day!! She has become a beautiful young lady. Independent, confident, strong will and minded. Little social butterfly. This is a definite trait of her father, I was a shy one in high school.

Tati is coming out of her shell. Starting Junior High this year. She is on the stage crew. Although she will always be my baby. She's never to big to cuddle and kiss her mommy. I'm so proud of her this year. She has worked so hard on trying to get straight "A" s. Kelli has enrolled her in dance. She loves it!! The girl has rhythm, (from me of course!)

The twins are growing so quick. I can't keep up. Help? Help?
Remember all you that said you would babysit when they were born? Ha,Ha where are you now? Just kidding! When they said it takes a village, they were RIGHT!

Jeff calls them little spider monkey's. They are climbing everything. Into everything.
And they have there own voice. Favorite word is "more". Following Mama, dada, cracker, nitenite, baby,shoe. And now they can say Tati. She has worked on this for months.

Oh and we are trying the potty thing. They both have accomplished peepee in the potty. Madison has even went poo. She loves to flush it and say "bye, bye poopoo!"
