T'was the night before school started...

I am so ready for school tomorrow! SO READY! Lily and Christian are so excited. Christian is a typical man and went right to sleep...lily is too excited to sleep. She let me do her hair again...hopefully she doesn't mess it up while she sleeps or we are going to have an awful morning!
I tried to do as much prepping for the morning as I could. Snacks are packed, lunches are prepped, all I have to do is get the kids/baby ready and make sandwiches. So I missed my first homework assignment for kindergarten. Apparently Ms. Allen sent us home with some construction paper that I was supposed to make a cut out hand. It was a cute idea but I saw it maybe an hour ago...so I had to cut out and decorate a hand for Christian to take to school tomorrow. It is ok...not as good as it could be, but better than nothing.

2 snacks for 2 "big kids" :(

my hand looks like it has chicken pox

So, Ms Addison is trying to change her bed time on me. I think she forgot who runs this show. For the past couple nights she has been staying up until 1030-1100. But we can't be havin all that nonsense, especially if she wants to wake me up at 700, she needs to give me more down time at night. Tonight though she was in the living room playing and talking and just making all sorts of noise while I was decorating my hand and getting everything ready for tomorrow. Well all of a sudden all the noise stopped...so I went out there to check on her. This is what I see...

Jeez! Is she not the cutest thing you've ever seen!? She is so stinkin sweet, I can't stand it. I definitely can't stand to part with her. I don't think I am going to leave her in the nursery again for a while. She was fine, but I just like having her with me. I really only left her because she slept the entire first hour and I didn't want her being all chatty in church. But now I think I just don't care. Baby steps right...I did one week, and next month I'll do another week.
Today she was sitting in her bouncer and Lily found some pieces of a baby toy (all the pieces) but it stacks together and has a rattle on the top. Anyway so Lily found it, and Addison was sitting in her bouncer. So I put the toy in front of her on the tray and she stared at it for a long time, well finally she decided to reach out and grab it. But she didn't actually hold on to it, she grabbed it and let go because I assume the rattle scared her. But when she let it go it rattled more and really scared her. She was so upset, it was adorable and sad all at the same time. I have never seen a baby get scared like that...you should have seen her little face and that cry! O NO! That reminds me, she has to get shots tomorrow...I don't know if I am going to be able to handle that cry. :( My poor baby...what are we going to do!?!

So I have a few pictures from when we went to see Tonya and Tom. It was nice, we spent the day out there with them. They have a bunch of chickens now, so we got some eggs! YAY! O and they did both get new trucks. His is chrome and hers is black. But my little sister came over, so I got to see her. I haven't see Ashley in...I don't know how long. It's been more than a year.

and this is after she gave ashley 12 and us 18!

So we decided to go through some old pictures while I was there...O-M-G! It was awful! Some of the gems she has stashed away...

Shame of my mama for not doing my head! SEE! This is what I am trying to tell Lily, I torture you because I don't want you to have pictures like this when you grow up. Check at that dress too! HAHA! Awful!

But it was nice to talk to you today. Sorry I talk your ear off every time you call...I kind of miss having you around. You're a big deal to me :)
I love you and I miss you and I cannot wait until you can come home!
