He is enjoying school. It's been tough since he hasn't gone to school for years but he is AWSOME and I'm proud of him for all the hard work he does for our family. For those who don't know James is going into the Firefighter/Paramedic field. I love him and appreciate him for his hard work. I don't tell him enough.<br />As for me just being a busy mom full-time and I am working at a salon part-time and at home I am working some too. I need a new job since I'm not making enough money. So if any one knows of any p/t night's or weekend jobs let me know.<br />We are having tough times right now making ends meet (I know a lot of people in this boat too). How do people do it now days????? grrr. Anyways I want to thank everyone who has helped us out. I can feel your prayers. We are blessed with love and support from our family and friends. We sure appreciate all the help we have been given in many ways. We WILL pay it forward someway somehow. Well thats a little info on us I will try to post more often and get some pics on here.

She is in dance and does really well. She loves to giggle and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">say's</span> "just kidding" a lot.( I wonder where that came from.) She is very creative always drawing and making new things. She is so beautiful inside and out. She will turn 8 soon and be baptized!<br />Preston is my calm one. He is the peacemaker in the house. His <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">pre</span>-school teacher <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">says</span> he is ready for kindergarten already and he is very helpful to the other kids in class and is a very good example. He is funny. He loves to laugh. He cracks me up! I'm glad he's mine!<br />Addi Addi Addi gotta love that girl! She is one busy little bee. Hard to keep up with sometimes, but she is a curious 2 year old after all. She just got a new big girl bed and now in potty training mode <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">yay</span>! She is talking up a storm and she is a little singer.

I just have been busy with work and working opposite shift from the hubby just have found no time to blog. I do have an extra day off from work now so hopefully I will post more often. I like blogging and writing down the cute stuff my kids do. Speaking of which here is Preston's(4) latest... He was singing The <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Itsy</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Bitsy</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">Bpider</span> to Addi and it came out The <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Itsy</span> Bi*<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">chy</span> Spider. That happened a few days a go and I still can't stop cracking up about it.<br /><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ashlynn</span>(6) is a busy first grader and she does dance and hands down she is one of the best dancer in her class. Her school class is a different story she struggles a little but I think she will catch on fast. She has learned so much this year and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">I'm</span> so proud of her.<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ashlynn</span> beats to her own drum that's for sure. Addison (1) is the sparkle of the family her sweet little spirit makes life great. She is almost 17 months old she is starting to talk a lot and she said <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_8" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ashlynn</span> and Preston's names for the first time last week. She has personality that's for sure. As for James he just had his 34<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_9" class="blsp-spelling-error">th</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_10" class="blsp-spelling-error">bday</span> yesterday and we went to sizzler on Monday and last night I made him one of his favorite meals and he likes brownies instead of cake. The kids made him cards and gave him balloons. The we went out for <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_11" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">ice cream</span>. As for me just working and being mom and loving my family more everyday.Shandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18019831959939640443noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165493248083267808.post-61610560902819142162010-12-02T22:12:00.000-08:002010-12-02T22:21:01.619-08:00Kids say the darndest things<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ashlynn</span> today asked me Mom do you know who's different than the whole wide world? I said no who? She said Jesus. So I said why Jesus? And she said well because President Obama is not the whole wide world Jesus is. Love that girl!<br /><br />Preston comes up with funny things all day but one that stood out was so funny. He asked me while pointing to the back of his leg if that was his armpit on his leg <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">hahaha</span> he cracks me up!<br /><br />And then Addi's new word is Twinkle Twinkle. (It <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">doesn't</span> sound like it but I know that's exactly what she is saying). She is such a busy body I can't keep up with her. She's got us all wrapped around her finger that's for sure!Shandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18019831959939640443noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165493248083267808.post-33724094597386432122010-09-14T22:21:00.000-07:002010-09-14T22:35:18.656-07:00Preston is in Preschool<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/TJBad8hVviI/AAAAAAAAAdA/TYZR2AeRG-E/s1600/DSCN0931.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517009014037528098" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/TJBad8hVviI/AAAAAAAAAdA/TYZR2AeRG-E/s320/DSCN0931.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/TJBaRu634SI/AAAAAAAAAc4/pa6qXLGemGo/s1600/DSCN0934.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517008804228096290" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/TJBaRu634SI/AAAAAAAAAc4/pa6qXLGemGo/s320/DSCN0934.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div>This cute little guy started preschool.

She has gone for a couple of weeks now and she always talks about lunch and recess. Hopefully she will find joy in learning things soon. She likes to ride the bus too. It was hard to send her to first grade. I'll admit I followed the bus to school just to make sure she got to class ok. It is hard letting her go into the world without holding her hand through it all. She seems to be having fun at school and likes her teacher so I'm glad for that.<br /><div> </div>Shandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18019831959939640443noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165493248083267808.post-2906869936123166212010-08-02T18:54:00.000-07:002010-08-02T19:09:24.069-07:00Preston's Funnies#1 We were just sitting on the couch last night and he said mom Jesus works at the church huh?<br />#2 We were driving down the road today a he said mom Donald works at Mc Donalds..... not the duck.

She had her first birthday party with girls this year. (she has Lot's of boy cousins and friends) So this year we invited all her girlfriends in the neighborhood. We had Pizza and played Pin the Purse in the Lady's Hand. Then we played Tinkerbell Bingo and we had a Pinata. Preston was the only boy but he had a ton of fun too. The girls kept giggling at him. Thanks to all of Ashlynn's friends who came she had a wonderful party.</div><div>I can't believe Ash is 6 already. I can't get enough of that girl. She is beautiful inside and out. She is a great friend, hard worker and very talented girl. She is sweet and sassy. We are truly blessed to have her sparkling personality light up our lives everyday. Love you Ashlynn!!<br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Shandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18019831959939640443noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165493248083267808.post-74308590831201315012010-04-23T21:08:00.000-07:002010-04-23T21:17:35.676-07:00This is what we do on Friday nights......<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/S9Ju-dEr02I/AAAAAAAAAZ4/Y_xGpm75yRc/s1600/SAM_0813.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5463551317189055330" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/S9Ju-dEr02I/AAAAAAAAAZ4/Y_xGpm75yRc/s320/SAM_0813.JPG" /></a><br />Nothing beats staying home with the family.

The Easter Bunny stopped by and the kids seemed pleased. We woke up to snow so good thing the Bunny didn't leave eggs outside for us to find. Speaking of the Easter Bunny, when I went outside last night after midnight to take some trash out I saw a white bunny hopping around(for real). Funny I think it was the real deal ;P haha. We invited my parents over for breakfast and visited for a bit. Then Dad hide some eggs for the kids to find. </div>Shandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18019831959939640443noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165493248083267808.post-14383755438454688562010-03-24T19:04:00.001-07:002010-03-24T19:10:12.903-07:00My new little hobby..<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/S6rE0YXS3SI/AAAAAAAAAYY/-ju50kw5ueU/s1600/SAM_0646.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5452386703057804578" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/S6rE0YXS3SI/AAAAAAAAAYY/-ju50kw5ueU/s320/SAM_0646.JPG" /></a> I'm learning how to make these flower hair bows.

Every time we talk about it she freaks out. I'm talking freaks out like crazy. Nothing else freaks her out like the dentist. I know I have to take her soon. This is my question in two parts...<br />A. When I take her to the dentist should I warn her before we go, and deal with all the intense drama and most likely her anxiety and fear will just make her physically sick. Should I warn her the moment we get in the car to go? What would be the best <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">approach</span>??<br />OR<br />B. Just show up to the dentist and just get it over with. She wont have much time to deal with her anxiety. Or will that be dramatizing on her? To just shove her into that. Any suggestions would help.

So I had to do a little photo shoot myself.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>Shandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18019831959939640443noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165493248083267808.post-62013040884856386522010-02-17T15:21:00.001-08:002010-02-17T15:41:13.625-08:00Big Girl!<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/S3x65PZeQZI/AAAAAAAAAXo/0FsnxLyAw-4/s1600-h/SAM_0278.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439357573761221010" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/S3x65PZeQZI/AAAAAAAAAXo/0FsnxLyAw-4/s320/SAM_0278.JPG" /></a> Addison has some new tricks she can do. Within the last two weeks she found her feet and she can roll over on her tummy. She also is starting to grab things a lot. I keep forgetting she can roll over and she has almost fell off the couch and the bed. She has the cutest sqeaks right now it sound like she is screaming but she really is just testing out her voice box.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/S3x6ww9YeVI/AAAAAAAAAXg/4Tzs3fbAzgs/s1600-h/SAM_0279.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439357428151384402" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_N-LRI0F80sM/S3x6ww9YeVI/AAAAAAAAAXg/4Tzs3fbAzgs/s320/SAM_0279.JPG" /></a> Check out her thick thighs!

Hope you had a good one Hubby!<br /><div></div>Shandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18019831959939640443noreply@blogger.com3
