Doctor & Durby

Doctor visits are never any fun :(. Most of the time we leave with someone crying. On this Doctor visit they got a total of 7 shots and 2 finger pokes and blood drawn. When I made the appointment the receptionist asked if I'd like to do them the same day...I thought that was a great idea instead of having to come back in a couple of weeks for another check up. WHAT WAS I THINKING!!!! It was awful, I went alone so I had 2 VERY upset girls and they both wanted held and comforted at the same time. We made it trough it and we know now for next time to do 1 check-up at a time. Macy insisted we still go to the Library afterwards to.
2 shots, blood drawn :(
2 more shots
3 shots on legs and poke on the big toe :(
PINEWOOD DURBY!!! Blake made this hotwheels durby track to keep the little ones occupied. It worked like a CHARM :)
On your mark...get set...GO!!!!

Blake and Karlee's cars are racing in this picture. I think Blake's won. Karlee's is the purple one in the middle and Blake's is the black one on the right.

Haven't you HEARD??? It my 1st Birthday!!!!

There is no way I can get all of them to be happy all at once :(


I am pretty proud of this cake I made. But I am still not ever going to be a baker. I will stick to doing what I do BEST!!! We all know what that is RIGHT?!?!
She wanted to touch the candle not blow it out. OUCH!!

My 3 LADIES, the older 2 were very helpful with opening the presents for Baby Sister.



She picked out this push, jingling toy all by herself. She was VERY upset when we had to take it away to put her in her car seat!! But very happy when she got to play with it at home.


Gifts from the WONDERFUL Grandparents :) THANK U!

CAKE TIME =0)

The end result, I was very glad it was daddy's night to give baths :) hahahahaha!!

It's only *SNOW*

I am a Idaho Girl. I lived there until I was 25 and I would say I am comfortable with snow for the most part. But the People in SC are terrified of it! :) Karlee's school cancelled school everyday this week due to the weather. When I was in school we would pray that we could have a snow day...needless to say we only got a snow day once every 5 years?!?

Since it doesn't snow here very often the city doesn't know how to deal with snow. One of the more scary things that happens here is when we get Freezing Rain, the roads are awful then. Stores were closed, free-ways were shut down, school closed....even MC Donald's was CLOSED. ( now that was a shock, they are never closed ;))

WE all enjoyed playing in the snow again this year.


Blake made a snow fort.
Before we went out...we got nice and bundled up.

Macy was enjoying the snow fort. She didn't want to come out, it must have been a little warmer in there????
Kennedy didn't know what to think of the snow. I let her taste it and then she couldn't get enough of it
My little snow bunny...she was so excited to not have to go to school so she could be outside with the snow.

~Snow~Visitors~X-mas~Birthday's~

Our family was excited to see all the snow we got this year ( it only lasted 2-3 days).

My parents flew out from Idaho to visit this year. We had them for a hole 2 weeks!! It was sad to see them go but hopefully we will see them soon.

Our family tradition is that the girls get to open 1 gift on Xmas Eve (pj's).


NEW PJ'S!!!

Macy is now 4!!!! Her BFF got her a sweater to match hers :) SOOO CUTE!!

Macy wanted to have a Ballet Birthday this year. A friend who takes Ballet showed the party guests a few ballet moves after each girl made her very own tu-tu.

The Goody Table....Ballet Moves~Soooo fun!

Happy Birthday Macy!!

Party Guests

Finished it off with nails being painted :)
