My baby is getting so big!!!

The other day Madelyn broke her first teeth through. She has been army crawling for awhile now, and last week she decided that she could crawl normal. Now she is everywhere. Well She has started to pull herself up to things. I am not ready for this stage, but she is almost 8 months now. I'm just having a hard time with her being the last baby and I want to stay small. I know it can't happen. But it would be nice. Anyway She pulled herself right up on her feet. Then I was working on somethings at the computer and she was in the jumper and all of the sudden it was quiet, so I looked over and she had fallen asleep jumping. It was too cute I had to take a picture. I hope you enjoy some of the pictures.

Random Pictures

So the other day I was going through my pictures on my cell phone and forgot to post some. We went to build-A-Bear for Lyssa birthday and we took some of her friends. Well after the party was over our kids were playing with the boxes and the animals that they got. Well I turned around to see my kids with the boxes on their heads and they were talking to each other through the windows in the box. It was hilarious!!! So here are a couple of pictures that I took. I hope you enjoy them.

Raining Cotton Balls

So what happen when 3 kids get a hold of a new bag of cotton balls?? So the other day it was raining cotton balls at our house. The kids had asked if they could have the bag and make pictures with them, I had no problem with that, except when it started raining them!!!! Although it was really funny and I really didn't mind, Madelyn had a blast and was laughing the whole time. Here are a couple of pictures that I took from my cell phone. Sorry they aren't that great.

I'm Old

I feel totally old today. I guess that reason would be it was my birthday. Another year down the road. Today was a really good day, other then I think I really over did it and I'm really sore. I took Lyssa to school and then I came home and got the rest of the kids dressed. Then I did some pampered chef stuff, and then we left to go get her. We went up to my mom's house and let the kids play. Wow they really made a huge mess, but we cleaned it all up. Then I let the kids play at Smith's. They love it because the 3 older kids can go in a play for an hour and then I can get what I need with only the baby, totally awesome!!!! Then we came home and I made yummy chicken fajitas for dinner. I love my deep dish baker. 20 mins and dinner was done. I got a banana cream pie for desert. So all in all it was a good day. I also got a surprise which was a Robin hood snow globe. I will get a picture on here later, and no I didn't get a camera (bummer). Well I better get to bed, I have a ton to do tomorrow.

Updates

Sorry for not posting in awhile. Things have been really crazy around here. My surgery went OK. I am still having a hard time recovering. But everyday I am feeling better and better. I just have to remember not to over do it. Let me get everyone caught up the the last week or so. The 2nd of April was my pampered chef open house. It went really well, we had a great turn out. The 3rd was my surgery. I have been in and out and down since. Madelyn just got her first tooth today!!!!! She is also 7 months old now. She is getting so big, I can't believe it. I will have to post some pictures after I get them downloaded from my cell phone. I really real have a camera one of these days!!! Maybe for my birthday I can get one, we will see. Alyssa and Chase are the same height, and now Chase weighs more by like 10 ounces or something close to that. I love it, now that he is feeling better and is actually growing. We are soon going to have to buy him some bigger clothes!!! Which I am actually excited about because we haven't bought anything for him in over a year, because he was sick and not growing. I think that he is going to pass Alyssa up very soon. Blake hasn't really gotten in to trouble lately. Although his feet are almost bigger than Chase's and Alyssa's and he is only 2!!!! I think that he is going to pass Chase up, he can also eat more then all of the kids. He has also decided that it is cool to go on the potty. I keep trying he soon hopefully will be potty trained. Well I think that sums this past couple of weeks. I will post more this week.

More Stress

Well yesterday was a very busy day. Andy had his follow up Dr appt. I had my pre-op appt. Alyssa had school. I had to get the house clean for the pampered chef open house. Madelyn didn't sleep all night, and then to top it off I had to go to work. It was the start of the rollback at Spaghetti Factory. Things have just been crazy around here and it doesn't seem like we can get a break. Okay that is just how I feel. Anyway we got back from my appt, and there was a message on the phone from the clinic that Andy had just been at. Well apparently the radiologist review the xray from Friday, and his Right toe if broken. Now he has to go see a foot Dr. (I forgot the correct term right at this moment.) They wouldn't tell him if it was just the toe or if it was the bone that connects to the foot. Either way added more stress. I think that we are just going to have medical bills forever!!!! I know someday we won't have anymore. I just wish that, that day would come sooner than later. Sorry for such a down post. I just needed to express how I feel. I keep everyone updated. Thanks for listening.
