This year we decided to make our own Valentines. It was so much fun. Ashley helped Jason with his . I love when my kids work together and enjoy it.
Yesterday we made and frosted sugar cookies. I was sooo happy. Never in my life have I had sugar cookies turn out. I have been going to cooking classes and they are helping me a lot. My first ever successful sugar cookies. :) I can now add them to my list of accomplishment in my domestic life. Some of which are....... killer brownies, french bread, chocolate chip cookies, pecan logs, chocolate candy, pumpkin rolls, whole wheat bread, Texas sheet cake, and now sugar cookies. I am not saying they are the best, just that I could make them for someone and not be too worried. Next on my list is Cinnamon rolls......
My sweet little guy turned 6 months old today. Where did the time go? Having 6 kids isn't always easy.... but definitely worth it!! We are sooo in love me and my boy. His brothers are pretty crazy about him too.
I just got done reading this book that my mom gave me. I found it very interesting and really enjoyed it. Ever since my brother Michael passed away I have thought a lot more about life, and where we go when we die. I am grateful to have such a need to understand more for myself. I really loved "The Message" of this book. SERVICE. Service is the action of LOVE..... and loving our neighbor is what we are here for. I think this is one of those books that will change me for the better. How can I not after I read this. Service is our new family motto.
There is something really wrong with this picture, and something wrong with the fact that I am blogging about a dog again. This is her new favorite nap spot. Let's just say that I wasn't too happy. I don't know what else to do. She does as she pleases. If my kids didn't love her so much she would be gone by now. 
Yesterday while I was sick in bed I got up to find that Joey and Jason had turned Mikey and his walker into an army tank. My heart melted to see all 3 boys playing together. Even with 3 big sisters Joey is my best helper when it comes to Mikey. He is always willing to take care of him and always has a big smile on his face. 
Well, I can't believe we got a dog. Never did I think this day would come. After years of begging(mostly from Haley) we broke down and got a dog for Christmas. I have made it very clear that this is not my dog and I will not be taking care of her AT ALL!!! I kind of like her, though. I even touched her. We will see in time. Just do not call me her mom!! She is a dog and I did not give birth to her. I really love my kids.
I HAVE TO LAUGH THAT ALL THE MOMS ARE OUT DOING CHRISTMAS AND NOT BLOGGING. I AM GLAD TO HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO KEEP ME BUSY THAN BLOG STALKING. MERRY CHRISTMAS! I CAN NOT WAIT TO SEE EVERYONES BLOGS ABOUT CHRISTMAS AND WHAT SANTA BROUGHT.
Read more...Last year this is what my husband opened up at 12:00am on his birthday. He really didn't want to wake up in the middle of the night, but I told him he would really want to see his gift. He was more than pleased to find out that we were having another baby. How could I live up to last years gift......
This is what he opened up this year..... He had tears in his eyes. Almost as good as last year.
It is crazy how fast 1 year goes by. So much has happened yet so much is still the same. I am sad how quick my kids are growing up. I wish I could just freeze them right now. I want my baby to stay a baby forever. We are enjoying every little moment with him and all the other kids. HAPPY BIRTHDAY WAYNE!!!
