Technical difficulties.

OK SOOOOO.... this is a sad and sorry excuse but, one from a busy mom that has been beyond sleep deprived over at least the past 2 weeks. My batteries died... and well... I could not find my charger.. so my plan is to add the last to picks I took tomorrow when I'm more awake, and get those batteries going and just pick up at the number I left off on I suppose.

Do you like my hat?
I do I like your tea party hat!

My sister Jackie had a tea party for the girls and the big kids made a party hat. Too cute and the kids had sugar overload. Drinking out or real china tea cups and all. Tristen had a sippy cup with juice she's just no that good yet.

Mommytography! 365 project.

So I've seen these 365 photo projects. Think I'll start one to motivate me to be a little better at updating the blog for those folks who care to see the kids, the house, the critters, and whatnot that goes on in our daily life. Looking forward to this and will pull out my camera & have it on hand today for that perfect too cute moment, they happen regularly but I'm hardly ever ready. I will try to update each afternoon, or evening. :o) Below is the link I found from another blog I came to follow.

Chloe Turns 7!

2 Days after Christmas 7 years ago we welcomed Chloe to our little family! :o) We celebrated her birthday w/ a few of her girlfriends, w/ pizza & cupcakes @ Stephan's mom's place on Chloe's birthday. Chloe, Molly, & Mikayla had a sleepover w/Grandma R, then the following day Stephan and I took the 3 girls out to lunch at Applebee's and went to Chuck E Cheese to play games after. In the evening there was another sleepover at our place, the kids where very well behaved! Chloe had a blast!

Christmas 2009!

Yet another Christmas came and we where faced w/ Stephan's police officer schedule. He was scheduled to work Christmas Eve into Christmas day, we had a little plan to make it work out, and where gonna make do w/what time he could manage to be awake on Christmas day. Then the call came 2 days before Christmas, he was able to get off!!! FANTASTIC!!! That is the best gift I ever receive is for him to be home with us for all our family festivities without the worry of getting to work. So we had our usual Christmas eve evening w/my family, Christmas morning opening of presents here with the kids, then off to Stephan's mom's for Christmas breakfast, the kids opened their gifts after, then played w/ their cousin Mikayla the rest of the day, then the rest of Steph's side of the family arrived and we had Christmas diner! Christmas was small and wonderful for us this year. Hope everyone else had a lovely day.
