How's your day going

Have you ever been asked this question... I know you have, and what's the usual response? "It's fine" or "It's going good", well this past Wednesday if you had asked me that would not have been my response. My response would have been "It's only 8:00am, and already I have been s*** on" har har!

You see I went in my room to get Kendall changed and ready to go. So i lay her down on my bed and sit down with her to start the process. Now keep in mind I am already dressed and ready for work myself. She had a poopy diaper and I believed her to be through, however as I lifted her little behind to move the diaper and wipe her she shoots poop ALL over me and ALL over the bed. My oldest was in the room with me and got a big kick out of it :)

Summer's End

So here we are the end of July and only two more weeks until the kids start back to school. Cat will be in sixth grade, Colin in second, and my little Cody will be in Pre-K. I cant believe how fast the summer has past (and by summer I strictly mean summer vacation) as it is still over 100 degrees here daily :) And so with school returning comes a whole list of things to get done from school supplies to haircuts to new uniforms. And not only is school beginning but we got a call from Cat's soccer coach yesterday reminding us she needs to register for the upcoming season as they will begin practice in September, and that is when the running around like a chicken with my head cut off will really begin :)

Birds and Bees...

Last night I had a lesson in the "Birds and the Bees" from our eldest daughter. Michael and Cathy were sitting next to each other on the sofa, when I went over and started kissing Michael. Cat immediately says "Ugh, Mama, stop making out with Daddy, you don't need to get pregnant again and if you make out with him you are gonna get pregnant". I looked at her and said "You are right baby, if you make out with a boy you will get pregnant, so don't make out with boys". To which she says "I know". Then Michael added "In fact if you look at a boy you will get pregnant, so don't even look at them". To which Cathy replied "I know, that's why mama keeps getting pregnant"!!!

Later this week....

So as I am typing this I can not hardly beleive it, my baby is turning four this week (yes, Cody is "my baby" and Kendall is "his baby"). I know I say this about all of them but it really seems like yesterday that we were bringing him home from the hospital. Has it really been FOUR years, is he really already starting pre-k this fall? To Cody Happy Birthday baby, we love you!!!

Burping Lessons

The other morning I was sitting in the rocking chair, I had just finished feeding Kendall and had her on my shoulder burping her. Cody came over to me and the following conversation ensued:

Cody - Mama what you doing to her
Me - I am burping her baby
Cody - Dat is not how you burp her, you are supposed to squeeze her neck
Me - No your not Cody that would hurt Kendall
Cody - No, you squeeze it softly
Me - No you don't Cody, I better not catch anyone squeezing her neck that would hurt Kendall

The next day I had just finished feeding Kendal and was in the process of burping her again, this time I had her sitting up on my lap and I was supporting her head with my hand while rubbing her back. Cody came over to me and said "See Mama you is squeezing her neck softly" :)

Going's On

Felt like it was time to do a quick update on us since I had a moment and Kendall is asleep ;)

Colin: he just finished up golf camp last week and had a really good time, we all went out to the course last Friday evening to watch him compete in a little challenge. It was nice out on the course. All the kids liked riding in the golf carts.

Cody: is enjoying being home and not having to get up early everyday (that will change next week as I have to go back to work) the picture above is from his spring program at school, he was a firefly. I did not get to go as Kendall was a little too young to be around so many people, but Michael said it was really cute.

Cathy: is doing good as well, she went to a softball camp last week and had a lot of fun there. She is a really good ball player, she played when she was younger but then decided the past couple of seasons that she liked soccer better (they are at the same time of year), I am hoping that the camp refueled her love of softball and she will try out next year. She is growing so fast I cannot believe she will be in middle school next year. The picture above is from her fifth grade graduation.

Kendall: is still crying, although it is settling down some. We are now on a formula that I think is working better and the Zantac seems to be helping as well. She is growing like a weed. I tried to take a couple of pictures of her last week which she was not to happy about as you will see.

Feeling Sexy

Mama, what is that smell?
Are you wearing a new perfume?
Why yes dear, it is called spit up, do you like??

Kristen, how many days are you going to wear that shirt?
Until it rots and falls off of me, you actually think I have time to shower and change clothes??
