Sunday

Tonight Collin was telling the girls stories. He began telling them about Hansel and Gretel. Breah stopped him half way through and told him that she did not want to hear anymore scary stories. She said she has seen too many bad movies and is getting to many nightBEARS. Kylie then corrected her, calling them nightMIRRORS. They continued back and forth correcting eachother until Collin finally made fun of both of them and told them it was nightMARES!!
In other news, Addison turned 3 years old 11 min. after the deadline to go to Sunbeams. I was okay with it. I know how hard it is for those kids to sit still that long and not get any snacks. Plus, the kids in Sunbeams are a little more advanced and those in Nursery will be in her school grade. But today, when I brought her to nursery, she repeated several times that she wanted to go to "class". So I finally agreed and she loved it. She was so proud of herself!!! She is growing up so fast!

good times

You know those days where everything seems to go wrong. And they happen over and over, like ground hog day. And you start to wonder how in the world are my kids going to turn out okay? Then things like these happen... and I get enough hope to keep trying.

"Mother-may-I?" All lined up in their new nightgowns. I could not resist a photo!

Kylie reading a bed time story to Clare. Tonight she sang to her until she (Kylie) fell asleep.
I left Clare on my bed while Breah was playing games on the computer. This is what I came back to find. She is quickly becoming a pro.

Christmas Best






Christmas 2009

Kylie couldn't wait for Christmas morning, but when it finally came, it took her a little while to wake up. She also took her time to see everything in her stocking. She Asked Santa for just about everything in the Toys R Us catalog. She could not narrow it down at all! Santa gave her an Easy Bake Oven.

Breah was the first person to wake up, as always. I let her climb into bed with me to see if we could get anymore sleep, but it only lasted about a minute. She then went and woke up her sisters who both told her to leave her alone. Then they finally realized what day it was!

Breah asked Santa for "mermaid tails and shells". I thought about making something, until I saw this Ariel dress. Luckily, she liked it "more" than whatever it was she wanted and put it on immediately. Notice Addison already chowing down on the candy. She was pretty out of it until she saw the ballerina Barbie that Santa brought her.

But Ad was even more excited when she saw this. It got better when she realized she could sing all the songs with her...over and over and over while brushing her hair and wearing her crown!

I think this is all of it...

This is my favorite picture. Kylie got a Tinker Bell, Breah got Hannah Montana, and Addi got Barbie, Island Princess. I wasn't too sure about them, but the girls loved them... for a day anyway!

Clarissa finally woke up. The girls opened her gifts and shoved them all in her face!
