Lake Stevens




The weather has been so nice this week. It is not usually nice enough to go the lake in May. My sis and I live right by this lake, she called me today and dragged me out there with her. It is so hard to go anywhere with the twins. We went while Peyton and Kai were in school. Ruby had so much fun. It made me realize how much she misses out on because we don't get out much. She is easily excited. Sydney looked to tired to get her out of her seat so I did not have her get in the water. Michelle put Shae's feet in a little and he actually seemed to like it. (Notice in the background of the picture of Shae is my niece just about to fall over in the water. We were a little preoccupied with Shae that we did not notice her almost "drown".)oops...

Twins are 7 months


This is a bit late, they are well into their 7th month. They are doing well besides the fact that they are sick more then they are healthy. They have a pretty yucky cold right now. Both had to be on antibiotics again. Shae has his first ear infection. They have both been kinda fussy and waking me up a lot at night. Other then that they are good. They are so much fun. In the past month they have learned how to roll over from their backs to their tummy's. They both prefer to sleep on their tummy's now. They look so cute in their crib. Shae is now 15.5 lbs and 25.5 inches long. Sydney is now 14.5 lbs and 24.5 inches long. They don't quite sit up yet, but they are working on it. I think I have adjusted well to having two of them, but I am definitely exhausted at the end of the day.

31 years old now


I cannot believe I am in my 30's. Time seems to be going by so fast. I had a very uneventful, but enjoyable birthday. Zak took the day off and let me sleep in and he did my job for the day while I did... nothing. I loved it. Every year for Zak and the kids birthday I decorate the night before. So Zak did it this year for me. He used all of my leftover scrapes from previous birthdays. One of the streamers he used said "birthday girls first birthday". He did quite an interesting job....it is the thought that counts though . One year he bought Dora the Explorer decorations for me. Zak and the kids also made me a chocolate cake that turned out very yummy. All in all it was a good day.

Twins Blessing Day 5-10-2009....finally





The twins were finally blessed! It took a few cancellation and misunderstandings, but it is all done now. It almost turned into a joke with how much of a deal it turned into to get it done. It seemed to be one thing after another. It was a wonderful day and experience. It made for a perfect Mother's Day for me. The babies looked so cute, thanks to Julia for the cute tie and bow (her twins will also be wearing them we they are blessed next month).

Best Friends




Kai and my nephew Colin. They have been best buds since they were babies. They are only 6 weeks difference in age. He comes over about every other week to play with Kai.
