This morning I got up around 6:30am. Took Kenzie to school, Rodys mom stayed here with the kids, like she normally does. My car was squealing when I started it, til I drove about a mile and then it would stop, since Sunday. Today It didnt stop for a long time, and then when it did stop, it smelled like my car was on fire. Then my heat didnt work…and we were freezing! On my way home, I noticed that the temperature gauge was all the way up…above the hottest temperature. It scared me so I called Rody and he said I should be fine to drive home. When I got home my mom was there and all 3 kids were up. Rodys mom left right away, and then shortly after her, my mom left. My sister Melissa was having surgery on her knee today, so she was going to be with her. 

The kids ate breakfast in the living room today, while watching Tayo. Then they wanted a pop tart for a snack. 

Then we blew up the jump-o-lene and the kids had tons of fun playing in it all day! My mom came over after Melissa got into recovery. It sure was nice to hear her voice when she called to tell us she was home and feeling great! Thank you Jesus! My mom stayed here until she had to pick Mel’s kids up from school. So we talked on the phone to Kimmy for about 2 hours haha and then to Melissa for about 40 min. During all this the kids ate lunch, and went down for a nap. And my mom and I knitted! Then we decided to both knit the dishcloth pattern I came up with that has Kimmys name in it. It was fun working on it with her. We are going to try and finish it tomorrow or Friday. She left to get the kids, and I decided to knit on my blanket some more. The kids woke up around the same time Rody got home from work. They jumped in the jump-o-lene and watched Frozen til dinner.

Vershon stopped by for a visit, it was really nice seeing him! Its been a while. Rody had to go to caregroup and Kenzie was at her wrestling meet. She won her first match and lost her 2nd one. Omi and Popi made it to the meet to see her. I sure wish I could of seen her!

Then Melissa decided to facetime us, so she could see Evan, and they were all excited to facetime her. They all wanted to show her how they jumped in the jump-o-lene. Haha then they all wanted to say hi to Abby (her dog). It was nice to see her smiling, and not in so much pain!

Then we watched Baby Einstein til it was time for bed. :) It was such a fun day! So happy to have Evan spending this time with us. He is such a sweet little guy! I have been hugging him and tickling him all day. :) Im so happy I am so close to all my nephews and niece! I love how close our family is!

I decided to do my blog early tonight, since Im so tired! Now I am going to knit til I have to go get Kenzie at 10pm. Then I am coming home and going straight to bed!

Night Night

Today we got up and went to church…they were doing a backwards service today (Preach first…worship last). SO we took the kids to the Sunday school right when we got there…kinda nice!

Isaac wore his suit from Grammy, and Peyton wanted to wear her Christmas dress. They looked so cute!

Isaac didn’t wanna hold Peyton’s hand, he wanted to hold her arm, so they were fighting about it…lol She is just so bossy! haha

They made up fast lol

We had taco bell for lunch…yum!

Then I knit a dishcloth, using 2 yarns for my friend Melissa in Cali, it turned out so cute. I knit/pearled the whole thing, then just knitted 4 rows, then knit/pearled about 3 or 4 more rows. I love it! Might make me one! Its so fun trying new patterns. I just cant believe how much I love knitting!

Then I put Isaac in his room for a nap, and I had Peyton lay down with me, they take naps better if they aren’t in the same room. 

I snapped some pics of her laying with me, shes just so cute!

we woke up around 6pm, and Rody was making breakfast for dinner. French toast, sausage, and tater-tots…yum!

Then I knitted some on my blanket, cleaned the house, and just sat around. The kids watched a Baby Einstein before bed…they are 3 and still pick Baby Einstein every night!

I sat on the table to take a pic of Isaac, and CRACK!!! The glass shattered under my butt! LOL I had to go wake Rody up to tell him. I was going to go get him a fork to get the glass out of the table, and he told me to wait, that he would get it. He used packaging tape, and taped the glass, and pulled it all out and into a box in one piece, then vacuumed the table. He is so smart! I called my mom to tell her, and she had a good laugh about it! Peyton kept telling me not to sit on the table cuz its dangerous…Im like OK Peyton!

I called Kimmy and told her, and then both the kids wanted to tell her too. They talked so good on the phone to her….I was surprised, because it wasnt on speaker phone. They are growing up so fast :(

I put them in bed, and they were begging me to do a blanket bomb!

Blanket bomb: They get into their bed, and I wad their blankets up and throw them at them really hard.

Haha they crack up every night when they get the blanket bomb!

Well I am tired so I am going to bed…and I might just be in bed by 10:30…a record for me! haha

night night!

This morning I got up super early cuz I had to take Kenzie to school for a wrestling tournament…she wasnt wrestling because of her grades, but she had to be there to help out. She did end up wrestling 2 guys from her team, and pinned them both, but it didnt count for her team. 

I came home and decided to work on my purple washcloth, I decided to give it to Vershon because today was his birthday. :)

I knitted until it was time to pick up Kenzie. I finished my washcloth, and decided to make a coffee cozy for Rody, then I wanted one so I decided to make one for me. I love them! Im really liking knitting, even though Im slow, and can only do a basic knit. But I dont care! haha

This is Rodys, its gray and like a mint green color (hard to tell in the pic)

And here is mine :)

When I picked up Kenzie, we had to go get her a white shirt for her School Whiteout dance tonight…She got one last night but when we got home she noticed it wasnt the one she thought it was. So she wanted to exchange it. 

Then we went to Tim Hortons, I got a extra large french vanilla cappuccino, and Kenzie got a large. When we got home, before we drank any, we poured the cappuccino’s into a cup to see the difference in sizes and this was our answer! I have been getting gypped!!!

can you believe 2 different sizes and this is the difference…what a crock…I know I will be saving some money from now on by getting just a large! Thats for darn sure!

We came home, and I knitted for about an hour then washed and straightened my hair…just because :)

Then Bryce came to pick Kenzie up for the dance. She didnt dress up or anything and wouldnt let me take any pics so thats why there are no pictures of her lol

Then Vershon, the birthday boy, and Aunt Ann came over. The kids made him cards for his birthday and Peyton drew a person on the back and said “This is Shon Shon”! Pretty good for a 3 year old.

We visited with them for a while and it was so much fun. Again, I didnt get any pictures…and Im punching my self because I didnt :( boo!!!

But here is the birthday boy! I stole this from his instagram!

He is very special to us!!! We LOVE us some Shon Shon!!! Happy Birthday Vershon!!! xoxo

After they left, Peyton watched Frozen, and Isaac and daddy were on their phones…my techy family! haha

haha like father like son!

my men!

Then Peyton was acting goofy and wanted to take some funny face pictures…so here those are!

she is so silly!

Then Isaac wanted a pic with my mustache lol

Then I got them ready for bed and tucked them in.

I decided to do my blog early tonight since Im so tired! So that all I guess.

This morning I got up and took a shower and woke the kids up for church, but they were coughing alot and both had runny noses, so I decided to stay home with them. Rody and Kenzie went to church. 

Me and the kids had a little photo shoot after breakfast lol

I was teaching her how to do thumbs up and she decided she would rather say PEACE…haha

I always think about how blessed I am to have these two…and my sweet Kenzie!

After church my dad was shoveling the driveway of the pregnant mothers home down the road, so my mom stopped by for a visit. She watched Undercover Boss with us…and even got in a little snooze hahaha

After my dad was done, my mom went to pick him up.

Then Kenzie and I decided we wanted Jimmy Johns, so we went there and ate inside. Kenzie decided to fill out a application to work there…so hopefully they call! After we got done eating, we decided to go to Goodwill. Alot of clothing was 75% off, and some was 50% off so I got a pair of jeans, a tank top, and a cute pair of pink comfy pants for Peyton and a super cute hat for only $3. I saw the hat when we walked in, in a carr. and I wanted it, but wasnt sure if it was someones hat. When i was getting ready to leave, I saw it on the shelf with no tag. They sold it to me for .99 cents. I was so so happy! It is so cute!

 Isnt the hat so so cute?!?!

Then we stopped at the pet store so Kenzie could show me a bearded dragon she wants to get. It is really cute!

Then we got home and just hang out for a while…well pretty much til  bedtime…took some more really cute pictures :)

The kids were watching TV and Rody got down on the floor, and they were all piled on him like this…I had to get a pic! Love this! Poor Rody haha!

Daddy and his girls!

Kenzie made this at Omi’s house yesterday…shes so creative!

And she surprised me and made this with the kids today. She is so so sweet!!!

I just cleaned my fish bowl. These are feeder fish, and we have had them for over 2 months now. We got them for .13 cents each and the guy said “You will probably get a couple days out of them!” which I was fine with then, but I really love them now! Especially the whitest one, his name is Gold…Peyton named him. The biggest orange one up front is named Little…Isaac named him, and Kenzies is named Weefis…haha she named him that cuz thats how Isaac says the word leaves. We just love them!!!

The little white and gold one gets so excited to see me…I think I posted a short video of him on here a little while back, but I will post it again cuz its so cute!
