Catch-Up





Okay- It's catch-up time. My new goal in life is to become better at this blogging thing, but I just don't know where to start! This year has been soo busy for us. In January I started a new job at JetBlue Airways. It has been a great way to earn some extra dough, and beable to stay at home.
In February Kip turned 5 and Sier turned 3!! I can't believe Kip is already 5 years old....when he was first born I thought it would be a huge milestone when he turned 5. Once he had his birthday I couldn't even tell you where all the time went. I wonder what it will be like when he turns 8. All Kip wanted for his birthday was the StarWars Legos game, so that's all he got! He loves that stupid game, and plays it all the time. I have to admit that I do use it as a babysitter for when I'm working.
For Siers birthday he wanted a Stomper Bumblebee to go with his Stomper Optimus Prime that he got when he finally pooped on the potty, and he wanted Santa Claus to come to his Birthday Party. What other kid do you know wants Santa to come to a birthday party? Like I've said before, Sier thinks Santa was put on this earth just for him..... I dread the day when he finds out the truth, all of you might want to buy stock in Kleenex because we will be going through boxes and boxes of them.
We also went to DisneyLand in February. It was a blast- we were there for one day and got to do everygthing we wanted to. Kip became a True Jedi in Training, and Sier got to meet Mickey Mouse. They both loved every ride they went on, and were happy to go back to the hotel when the time came. Sier was so fun, and Kip was amazed by everything. Now I know why people say that DisneyLand is the Happiest Place on Earth, unless your a parent you don't understand. I can't wait to go back with the Kids.
In March we Started Coach Pitch, and T-Ball. What an experience. Kip did great in Coach pitch and is still working on his batting, and Sier just loved T-Ball. They both love to play because they want to be like there Dad, who at the age of 30, still can't get enought of the sport. I really think it's great and I hope they all keep playing until they can't anymore. In about fifteen years they can all be on the same team together!!
Kip also graduated from Preschool this Spring. He has learned so much from Mrs. Amy, like numbers and the alphabet. He is starting to understand the concept of reading and sounding small words out. Kip will miss Mrs. Amy very much. Good thing Sier will be starting with Mrs. Amy this Fall so we can still see her. Kip can't wait to start Kindergarten this Fall. He just can't believe they don't let you wear hats though!! What are we going to do without hats?
We have also bought a house and remodeled it this year too. More to come on that in a later blog, I will get before and after pics....I love my house! And I love Life....If it would ever warm the hell up.

About Us




I don't know what I'm doing, why I'm doing it, or when I'll ever have time to keep up with it- But I'm addicted to blogging, even though I don't have a blogspot- until now.
