it has been a long time

it has been a while since I have posted a blog. so here is the latest that has been going on in my life. my lil lady turned two in Febuary and we had a lot of snow in that month and I loved it and I hope that we will have many more winters like that. Haleigh had imbilical surgery in May and Brandon turned four in May as well and Micah and I celebrated six years. Iam currently in college and that is going well. My kids are growing like weeds, Brandon had his four year well check today and he is three feet three inches tall and he weighs 36.6 pounds. My lil man will be starting pre-k in the fall and I know he will be excited to ride a school bus but it will be a bittersweet moment for me, he is growing up and Iam not ready to let this lil boy grow up yet but that is what life is about. My sister is law is getting married in eight days and Iam thrilled beyond words for her, on a sad note my mother in law found out that she has cancer( we found out in May) and since the very beginning of this journey she has been in the hospital a total of three times and she had her first round of Chemo this past wednesday. She will get a Chemo treatment every three weeks . I hope that she will be cancer free after all of this is done and over with. I promise I will starting blogging again on a regular basis :)

let it snow let it snow let it snow

it has been snowing here pretty much all day long and I love it :) I can't remember the last time that Salisbury has seen this much snow. My kids can't wait to go outside and play in the fluffy white stuff. I will post pics once we get to go out and play and Brandon has had one request from his Daddy and that is for him to build a big snowman and a baby snowman.

thirty one yrs old

today that is how OLD Iam...my gosh I wish that I was still in my twenties. I spent the day at the doctors office with my two sick kids they both have double ear infections. :( I hope that they start feeling better soon. Hopefully all of us will be able to go out this week-end and do something as a family to celebrate my Birthday, but I need to get my kids feeling better first.

Christmas

well as some of you know we are moving back to the house that I grew up in so needless to say the little bit of decorating that I did all had to be packed up and put away for now...we are moving next weekend and I will be putting up the tree and all of my decorations as soon as we get settled in. I have started wrapping gifts for our friends and family and for Brandon and Haleigh also but I still have six people left to buy for and I need to get the layaway out for the kids next week. So I will be a very busy person over the next couple of weeks. There is one gift that I really want to get for Brandon but I think that it may have to wait until after Christmas and that gift is the Zhu Zhu pets, I want to get him two of the hamsters and at least the ball that goes with them. After Christmas my birthday is soon to follow and the day after my 31st b-day will mark two years in Heaven for my Mom, I miss her everyday and I know that she misses all of us and than My lil Haleigh will be turning two Feb. 13th so we will be having a nice party for her at the house so things will be busy busy busy for me and Micah as we have lots of things to plan for and Celebrate.

Christmas Part One

well today I drug out the Christmas decorations and I decorated my lil heart out...well the tree still has to be put up but Micah won't let me do that quite yet. I will be getting the kids Christmas presents soon I have a lay-a-way at Kmart and that the wrapping can begin :) I know that my kids are going to have a GREAT Christmas this year b/c it is going to be a simple one. well Iam almost done the Christmas shopping for everyone else I have only eight people left to but for and than we will be finished:) I hope that Santa will be good to all of my friends and family and I hope that my mom has a wonderful Birthday and Christmas in Heaven. I miss her everyday but I know that she is happy in Heaven and that she would want all of us to be happy here on Earth and I know in my heart that she will find a small way to wish all of us a Merry Christmas, after all this was my Mom's favorite time of the year.

my lil man

has been sick the past two days....so today we headed to the doctor only to be told that he has a viral infection the odd thing is that when Brandon has a fever he breaks out in hives and once the fever goes down or away so do the hives. If I give him some allergy medicine they go away alot faster I hope that my lil man feels better in the morning. I also forgot that he is doing great on the potty and he is 99% there and I will be glad when he is 100% potty trained:)

the other two loves of my life

These two kids bring joy to my life everyday and I am so greatful for them and they are a gift from God. I love them with all of my heart and soul. Brandon you a wonderful little boy, you are growing up to fast and I wish that time would slow down sometimes..I can't believe that you are going to be going to school next year and Haleigh you a precious lil lady, I love your smiles that you give us everyday and all of the hugs and kisses that you have to offer.
