Long Over Due

Ok, I just spent over and hour creating a post and then blogger deleted it while I was trying to post. I will try to start over when I stop being angry.

******************************************

I'm not done being angry, (this is actually the 3rd time I've tried to post) but I will try again. I do feel sad for my 5 readers, because frankly my first post was mildy funny wildly enertaining and I just don't think this one will live up to the original.

I have also added some more links over to the left. If you are ever bored, I would encourage you to check them out. It's amazing how many awesome people I have discovered with my B.V.D (Blog Voyeurism Disease)! However, it is mildly disturbing that I actually only know 2 people on the list, and sort of know another one. (Katie, does meeting at a Ladies brunch, and then communicating thru Beth and blog comments count as knowing or sort of knowing? :-) However, I like to pretend I know everybody and can maybe have Mexican food with them one day. :-) (Watch the clip)

Alright, in the original post, I also provided many lame excuse for taking 1 month and 3 (almost 4) days to post again, including but not limited to my sickness, baby sickness, holidays, work, grad classes and more babysickness. I apologize for the delay. I have lots of thing to post about, but might have to break it into smaller post throughout the weekend just in case blogger tries to be a playa hata and make me yell, scream and throw things calmly walk away from the computer again.

I took K to the Children's Museum with my friend Holly and her two boys. I had so much fun with Kennedy! I can't wait to do it again!






The holidays were super busy but Kenna was fun because she was more exciting then last year, when she was basically just a 2 month old lump. :-) She loved the wrapping paper and boxes and decided that all of Deagan's toys were also her toys. Deagan got to be the lump this year. :-)

Tryin' out the new Elmo Slippers





What is that face??



This is Kennedy busting a move with us as I challenged her 10 year old cousin to a cheer off. Wii Cheer rocks! :-)




This is what are living room looked like after Christmas! I have since packed up some toys and re-arranged to save my sanity.



We had our 2nd Annual December Baby Party. It was fun because last year all of the babies except for Avery were basically...well, adorable little lumps! This year they all intereacted except for Deagan.

I rarely post pictures of myself on here, but I will post a picture from New Year's Eve in hopes that it will motivate me to continue to eat better and work out to rid the 47 years of baby weight that has acrued. :-) I had fun seeing my friends that night. I haven't had a New Year's Eve with them like that since..2002/2003 I think. Of course I missed Katie up in Ft. Fun and Jenn who was stationed in Hives-ville. ;-)



I have more but will save it for later!

ANOTHER post!!

First- a shout out to my law school peeps: I miss you guys SO much and was very happy to see some of you tonight...even if it makes me sad because I think about how much I miss being with you and going to school.
I'm posting some random December pics. I took Kennedy to Disney on Ice on Wednesday. She did awesome and really seemed to enjoy it. I hope that I can remember to take time to do things with each child individually as they grow up. If Jon and Kate can do it with 8, surely we can figure it out with 2! I didn't really get any good pics of her at Disney, so you will just have to make due with what I do have. :-)

Ah. She discovered the Christmas Tree.



K rockin' her adorable outfit from Lindsay, Mavis, Mark, and Jenn!


Um, Sebastian...please explain why you have two blocks and I have none.


Did you guys know there were cans in this box???




Aunt Meggie got her a Tinker Bell Tea Set for Christmas!

Thanksgiving...better late than never!

Super busy Thanksgiving, but lots of fun. Breakfast with my dad's crew, lunch with my mom, dinner with Devin's peeps. (Lots of meals that were not helpful in the baby-weight-loss plan!)

Of course, I forgot the camera for breakfast (I promise I will get picture's at Christmas!!) :-)

First Thanksgiving!! (Yes I torture my children...maybe by the time they are in high school I will stop making them dress for each holiday)

Oooh...she is sick and drowsy...I should be able to get the phone unnoticed...


Jazz Hands!!


Don't be fooled by the rocks that she's got- she's still Kenna from the block


Snuggled up and ready for drive
Look at that face!


Loving on Tobias Thurmador Goodman

Word to ya motha

I'm thinkin' about sending her to work at Connor Prairie next year...it's expensive keeping a toddler lookin' good! :-)

Devin's cousin got her a giant Elmo for Christmas!
Look at that tush!

What? Doesn't everyone carry their blocks like this?

Random Acts of Cuteness...and a Christmas Tree

Too many posts and not enough time! I am having trouble keeping up on my blogging because I am feeling very overwhelmed! The kids have been sick, I'm super busy, the house is a mess, and very little sleep is being had!:-)

I did think of a new proverb that I will share. Are you familiar with the saying, "You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose?" (Classy, I know.) Well, "You can't pick your children, but you can pick their nose." :-) Young children with little noses and lots of snot and boogers (or boogars, Beth) ;-D results in more nose cleanings that I would like.

Here are lost of November Random Acts of Cuteness Pics (along with one Christmas tree that I am very proud of.) I will try to post Thanksgiving weekend pics ASAP and then update some December stuff. Have a good week!

"Kennedy...be gentle..."


Geez! I'm just touching his seat!

What!!!?? I'm just touching his arm!!!



Hey! Lady! She's smooshing me!!!

She's trying a new look.


See, I can help... by shoving the pacifier in his face :-)


OMG! See if I help YOU anymore!
