This week Aunt Nina came and hung out with us... we did nothing since it has been raining everyday! So today the sun came out and I told the girls that we were going to go swimming. Well, they were having so much fun playing that they did not want to go. My goal in life is to make my home a fun place for my children to have memories and enjoy being there. My plan has worked and they love being at home! I, however can hardly wait to go do something! I have been working around the house getting things in order...which is a never ending job. I have worked on the website that I am making my for my mom. I have home schooled the girls. Done laundry. Cooked and many loads of dishes! Don't get me wrong, I love to be home and do not mind doing all of this, but weather is gloomy and it makes me want to go on a vacation to a place that has some life!! The sun will come out tomorrow....hopefully! :)

Here are a few stories that I must post about my babies.

Meet Kim and Ron. They are the "Happy Couple". Ryen and Amaris named them from a tv show and they pull them around the house by the cord. They have played with them for hours. They even went swimming with us at the pool.


Ryen went to her first dentist appointment last week. We waited to take her until she was a little older. She has been through a lot with Docs and we wanted to feel confident that she was ready. She was a little nervous, but she pressed through. God is working in her life really strong right now. Now that she is getting older she is having to work out her thoughts and feelings and look to God as her source. Everyday with prayer and confessing the Word she is facing the giants and is an overcomer!!!

Amaris is maturing like crazy! Ryen was asked to say the Pledge of Allegiance at church the other night and we were asking her to practice in front of our company. Ryen was too shy (at that moment), so Amaris (who loves attention too) stepped up and starting saying it all the way through. I was so shocked...I did not even know that she knew it. Here is Ryen saying the Pledge in front of a lot of people: Here are the other pics we took that night.





I have to brag on Cami too. She is whining up a storm, but also talking up a storm too. She thinks that she can do ANYTHING that her sisters do and she pretty much can. She is really busy right now. A lot of her teeth just came in all at once. She is taking 3 hours naps during the day which is really nice!! Here is the video of Nina teaching her colors! She loved it!! Thanks Nina for coming and hanging out with us! Sorry we did not get to go swimming once! We love you!!

Well, I did not forget...I was too tired to wait up until it was done downloading.

I have to come back so we can work on some more colors, letters and numbers. That is the funniest video. We could win some money on America's Funniest Home videos.
P.S. Don't you just love my blogs :)
