Twin jabber

What a snow covered day.

I can happily say that we have had a snow. 8.2 inches in about two days. I do like the snow the four wheel drive makes it even more fun. Christmas has come and gone, We made out with out getting very many toys and there all Farley quiet. We got a lady bug that talks and flashes, a choochoo train and a ball popper, two potato heads ,plus some quite books that hubby's mom made for the kids church bags. For the most part it was clothes I like when the kids get clothes. They spend alto of time playing with spatulas , ice cream scoops , plastic Easter eggs, and the grocers. We don't spend allot of money on toys, my parents never did we played with what we could find. For the most part all of our toys were bought to grow with us.
We don't seem to be out growing them to fast sense we started clawing and pulling our selves up on things. Bubba is in the 4% for height to weight at 29 inches and Sissy is in the 45% for her height to weight at 28 inches. We were told to fatten them up. We have a great pedirition he is the bishop of one of the local wards in our area. Very honest and up front fellow.
We have wonderful news about Sissy's hemangioma's, we have three of them for those that did not know.

Hemangiomas go through three stages of development and decay:

1. In the proliferation stage, a hemangioma grows very quickly. This stage can last up to twelve months.
2. In the rest stage, there is very little change in a hemangioma's appearance. This usually lasts until the infant is one to two years old.
3. In the involution phase, a hemangioma finally begins to diminish in size. Fifty percent of lesions will have disappeared by age five with the vast majority gone by 10 years of age

We have hit the rest stage, they are not growing and are slowly turning gray and breaking down. They show so much progress that they do not want to see us back at Children's Mercy for a year. That beats trips every 3 months.




Here is our beautiful little girl now at 9.5 mos, she has the most blue eyes



Since I have put pictures of sissy up eating its only fair to add bubba and his messy self.


Over all were waiting for spring so hubby can enroll in the industrial tech class he wants to and start school. At that point he will stop having to run the mail, but that is okay I miss him so when he goes to deliver mail. We don't see much of each other or spend allot of family time doing things together sense i started working weekends . I specially worry about how poorly they maintain the roads we use for the mail. We go out to the boonies in the box trucks.
The first of me and my sisters will be graduating collage this year, Sis gets her bachelors in history so she can teach middle schoolers and high schoolers. Right now she is doing her student teaching at Shawnee Heights middle school. My other sis got her CNA hopefully she can get a part time at one of the local hospitals.


Were happy to have a new year on the horizon, and we hope this year to stick to our goals a bit better.

Ahh Mobility

Well, the little guy is all grown up. Now we can both stear are walker and crawl away. Poor Sissy she is going to get lonely if she cant keep up.

Time to breathe

Movers and shakers that's what we are in our little home. Jax can now roll over when ever he wants and its so cute to see him get mad because he cant crawl. Kaia is just happy laying on the floor and rubbing everything she can get in he little hands on her head. She reallylikes a puppy dog that John got her. . I do all ready miss some of the cute little things they did. How ravenous they would get looking for the bottle and how they would want to cuddle and sleep with us. The sleep part is getting better. For the past 3 nights the kids have slept through them, thanks to the induction of rice cereal to there diet. Thank you Gerber for the sleep.

I'm saddened by the thought that they are growing up and it is time to start solid food. For the past 5 mos I have been the only source of food. I make up wards of 86 oz of food a day for my little blessings. Poor John always See's me eating, hes worried about what if I turn out like my mom. I love her but she is a tad obese. He does not seem to get that i burn at least 2500 calories a day and drink almost a gallon of water a day. I thought breastfeeding was going to be easy and I was way wrong. But it is so worth it

Man as soon as Jax fusses him self to sleep Kaila wakes up. No nap for mommy tonight. Speaking of nap time. I snapped this picture the other day. Both the kids were sleeping on the carpet and I heard some noise sure enough Jax had woke up and started chewing on Kaila. Poor girl her brother has been chewing on her sense he realized she was there.

We cant wait for job change time to come around. John wants to move to days so he will be working from 6 am to 4 pm. I will get to move back to the shift where it feels like home 4pm-2am. Its not that i don't like the key I work on, there is just a double standard and I hate it.

Now were both awake free time is over goodbuy world i will be back

Family Love

Friday was a happy day for the family John Paul, Johns little brother got married on July 31st. To a cute little girl Bethany. It was a beautiful day out at Lake Shawnee for the wedding, they lucked out. It was 85 with no hudimity and a light breezy. It was great to have all the family togeather, to see how all the kid have grown and see all the new babies. There are going to be 5 born to the family this year. We wish the best for them and hope there marriage is all they hoped and prayed for. We pary that they both can grow in to there new rolls
As for our house hold life has been busy. We don't know where the weeks are going to. They go by to fast and our babies are growing up way to fast. We had rice mush for the first time what a mess it makes, John had so much fun feeding it to them. He truely is a great loving husband and father. I feel blessed to have made the choices in my life that has lead us to be togeather.

bad at blogging

needless to say it has been a long time sence our last post. Alot has changed we have twins now. I have gotten tired of owning a home and want to sell it. It lacks a finished basement anyone want a home? I want to go back to an appartment mostly for the fact we dont have to mantance it or keep its lawn mowed. Not to mention it would be cheaper.
Back to the twins. We had a boy and a girl. Now we are 3 months old and getting all moble and more active. I do love having my kids. I feel great and have lost all of my baby weight 3 weeks in.I cant complain about that. The kids call i must go
