Auntie Jess!




Riley and Trevor always talk about their Auntie Jess and lately Riley has been wanting to call her Auntie and talk to her on the phone. I think it's such a good idea because they can keep in contact and stay close since we live far away from them! Thanks Auntie Jess for calling Riley and Trevor back today and talking to them. I know they love it and love you VERY much!!! Can't wait to plan a trip down to see you guys and your new house and take the kids to the beach with their Aunite Jess!

It's your birthday today! 32 years ago you entered this world and no one has ever been the same since...literally! Ha! You are such a fun guy to be around. You always know how to make us laugh and Riley, Trevor and Ireland light up with joy when they see you! You are an amazing uncle to my kids and an awesome brother to Zach and I! Thanks for all you do for us! We love you!

Big Brother Returns!!!


Yes, you can say I'm a Big Brother addict! But hey I wait all year for this show and it finally premieres tonight at 7:00! and okay this part is really bad....every year when it comes on Zach calls our Tv company and orders Showtime so I can watch Big Brother After Dark(its on from 9-midnight every single night)...told you it was really bad! But I'm a bussssy mommy of 3 and I think I deserve it for it is on only 1 month every year, right??!!

Surgery??

So I have been having these pains in the middle of my upper abdomen for a while now. I have just been dealing with it and hoping it would go away..but it hasn't. I think I may have to have my gallbladder removed...surgery...being put under..agghhh!!! You all know how my births and c-sections have been and why this is freeking me out!! I went to the Dr. a couple weeks ago about it and he scheduled me to have an ultrasound! He thinks it is most likely my gallbladder (I was really hoping for indigestion or something along those lines..) So my ultrasound is set for next week, we'll see how it goes. I'll keep you updated and hey maybe it won't show anything and the pain will just subside forever....ok a girl can dream (especially since my grandma, mom and cousin all have had theirs removed, it seems to run in the fam!)

Happy 4th of July!!!









We had such a fun and relaxing day today! The 4th of July really is my next favorite holiday after Christmas! I just love all the block parties, bbq's, family and fireworks! I love it even more now because I get to see my kids' faces light up when they watch the firweorks! We spent the day sleeping in (yes the kids had climbed into our bed by 7:00am but fell back asleep til 9:00!) Then we just lounged around in our pj's til about noon! Gramma and Papa, G-pa, and Auntie Mikayla came over and we bbq'd, the kids swam and then all set up out front to watch Daddy light fireworks!!

Party Time!













Ireland's 1st birthday was a blast! Thanks to everyone who came for making it special for her. Even though it was 107 degrees outside, somehow we still managed to have a great time(thank god for the pool!!)
