More pics...




The rest of September






Ok, I have been awful at updating this past month. We have good reason though. We FINALLY got our new house!!! We have been painting and packing like crazy and are set to move in this Saturday if all goes well. We took some pictures of the rooms before we painted and once we finish I'll post our after pics. The kids are doing well, Wyatt went in for his asthma again today and he weighed in at 16 pounds 3 ounces!!! What a chunk-a-monk. Emily always wants to be in a standing position with her legs straight at all times. Mitchell loves being a big brother and is still enjoying his gymnastics class that he takes once a week. Andrew is staying busy with his business, coaching, going to school, and doing homework in his spare time. As for me, I'm just glad I still have hair left on me head.

7 months old!!!






Ok, I just had to take these naked bottom pictures of the twins. Emily is rolling over and Wyatt, well, lets just say he can't really lift his head all the way off the ground. He just started on rice cereal. He is liking the change in food. Both of them enjoy listening to their older brother sing them songs.

Wyatt the cuddle bug


Ok, I have been awful at posting lately. I have been really busy with the kids because Andrew started school again at Fresno State, he coaches JV waterpolo for El Diamonte, and his business is continuing to grow. Not to mention that we close escrow on September 19th so we are busy thinking about how we are going to have time to do all the renovations that need to be done to it before we can move in. I have been awful at taking pictures lately but I will soon. I did have this picture of Wyatt who just loves to cuddle. Andrew laid him next to him in bed one morning and he just rolled over and snuggled into his arm. It was so cute. Wyatt weighs 15 and a half pounds and Emily weighs in at only 10 and half pounds.

Tag You're It!

So I got tagged by a blogging tagging game from my sister-in-law Jana. Once tagged you are suppose to reveal 6 of your own personal quirks for all to see, so here it goes...


1)I am border line obsessive compulsive. Ok, I can't believe I am about to reveal this but...I flush the toilet with my foot. I know your thinking, "Yeah, I do that too in public restrooms." But no, I am talking about at my own house and even close family and friends' houses. I have this weird thing about germs on the toilet handle but Andrew says I'm only adding foot fungus to our handle. The worst was when I was pregnant with the twins in the hospital and I was a cow and had to stretch my foot up real high to reach the handle in the bathroom.

2)I eat 4 full meals a day. Andrew looks at me real funny every night at about 10PM after I put the kids to sleep because I eat another full fledged meal. He says it is pretty unhealthy. But I say, "You try eating for 3!!!"

3)Have you ever heard the saying "Book smart, but not street smart?" That is completely me. I don't even want to reveal the things I have just found out this year from Andrew that I didn't know before. But really don't try to give me directions using north, south, east, and west, because I have literally no idea which way to turn when you say that. Most of the time I just nod my head and say I know where I am going and then I call Andrew and have him give me directions.

4) I wear stretch pants on a regular basis. If you catch me at home during the day watching my rug rats then you will see me in one of my various everyday stretch pants. Most of them are stretched out from this past pregnancy but I am all about being comfortable at home.

5)I love talking to the twins in my munchkin voice. I don't know why but I feel every mother magically receives this munchkin voice when they have a baby. It just comes out one day and doesn't go away. I sing all these funny songs to the twins and they just love it. I just have to convince others that it is just as fun and not annoying.

6) Last but not least I go pee a lot!!! I am going through at least a roll of toilet paper a day and it drives Andrew crazy. It is really annoying that I always have to go but I think that I was made with the smallest bladder in the world. Plus after having kids it is just not the same. Sneezing is the worst if you know what I mean, plus I don't even try to jump on trampolines anymore.


I now have decided to tag: April & Michelle

Blessing the twins




We blessed the twins a couple of Sundays ago. How emotional it was for me to finally be at that point. I had imagined it time and time again since they were born and wasn't sure if would ever happen. It was a great day for our family.

My little Rascals





Emily is now weighing in at about 10 pounds and Wyatt at 14 pounds! They are getting to be so big and Emily is rolling over from her stomach to her back now. Wyatt's head is hard for him to sustain as you can tell from the pictures, so when I put him on his stomach he only eats the ground. :) Wyatt still is very attached to me and Emily remains my easy going one. All is continuing to go well, and on my super hard days with the kids I just stop and think how grateful I am for all my kids.
