girls trip to disneyland

we really had the best time in disneyland. it was so nice to get away from everything and just be with our girls :)

one day i'll figure out how to post videos on here and post the video of when we told them.

we woke up at 6 in the morning and i told kennedy that she needed to get ready so we could have a playdate with hailey. we had been telling the girls for a couple days that they could have a sleepover soon. kennedy got up and asked why she was up so early since it was dark outside still. i told her that it wasn't that early, the sun just hadn't come out yet and- even grandpa had already left for work. she got up, got dressed and then we went upstairs. christy and hailey showed up and we asked them what they wanted to do today. hailey wanted to go to park city :) then i asked them if we could go anywhere they wanted where would you choose? kennedy said- DISNEYLAND! we looked at them and said, ok! lets go :) i don't think they believed us at first. hailey was worried about her clothes not being packed ;)

we got in the car and went to the airport :)

           the girls at the airport waiting for our plane :) we got them matching bags with fun stuff in them. thier favorite was the peace sign pajamas. of course.

             one of the nights we did mickey's halloween party. it was $50 a person but we thought it would be so cute for them to trick or treat at disneyland. and one extra day to wear their costumes. tina and i went as 80's girls :)

we stayed up so late and woke up early. but- it was so fun. even getting blisters from my toms and not being able to walk was so worth it.

we are the best moms ;)
i have so many pictures to upload but my computer is so dang slow. someday they'll all make it on :)

happy monday

i saw this on good old facebook today and i love it- i feel like it was written just for me :)
enjoy.

i push doors that clearly say PULL.

i laugh harder when I try to explain why I'm laughing.

i walk into a room and forget why I was there.

i count on my fingers in math.

i hide the pain from my loved ones.

i say it is a long story when it's really not.

i cry a lot more than you think I do.

i care about people who don't care about me.

i try to do things before the microwave beeps.

i listen to you even when you don't listen to me.

 

today was such a good day. i came home dreading the 4 loads of laundry

{ that really should have been at least 7 but i cram the washer way too full }

it needed to be all folded and put away.
you know- the worst part about doing laundry.
and the hubs had it all done.

i married a good man :)

well..he crawls out of his crib

jagger has figured out how to climb out of his crib. i could kill my dad for teaching him how!! ever since he learned it's been such a nightmare to get him to sleep. he used to go to sleep at 7 or 7:30. it's almost 9 and i've put him in his crib 8 times already tonight. and- now he's in the computer room with me playing with his toys. it's exhausting. this time of day used to be my favorite. it was my time to relax all by myself until the next crazy day began :) oh man this is not fun at all. i know i need to be strict and once he lays down i need to keep laying him down until he's alseep or he'll never learn and this will be a struggle for who knows how long! he's lucky he's so dang cute or he'd be in big trouble ;)

every year we get the pumpkin pizzas from papa murphys. kennedy loves it!

cheap and easy dinner with no clean up. you can't beat that

i got puked on today

i love my job. i really do. i even love the kids who run around the office with no shoes on. well- sometimes not those kids. i usually luck out on not having to get impressions of kids' teeth that are gaggers. today god hated me. it was the craziest day. ever. the second i put the tray in the kids mouth blahhhh he puked all over. i don't know how i didn't throw up right after him. i told my boss i need a raise.

on a good note- tomorrow is my friday! wahoooo. a whole day to myself. you know you're a mom/housemaid/laundromat when all you can think about doing is cleaning the kids room and finally getting all the laundry caught up. really though- it's amazing what you can get done without 2 little munchkins running around.

disneyland was so amazing. except all the damn people. and the blisters my feet got from walking so much. i have never seen that many people crammed into one place. it was nuts. the girls had such a blast though and i would do it again in a heartbeat. those pictures are to come :) until then i took pictures with my phone. the quality is just amazing!

one of the nights we let the girls do mickey's halloween party. it was so cute. christy and i decided if we were paying that much extra we were going to dress up too :)

        the girls loved playing at sephora in downtown disney. i think their bright pink lips look awesome

we went to a pumpkin patch on saturday! it was so cute. but it was really weird being so hot instead of cold. i love that this weather has been so amazing. kennedy's future mother in law carson got some really cute pictures. and of course i forgot my camera. remember my brain problem? so the only one i got is of tina and i :) poor hubs. he's never in any pictures because he's always the one taking them. on my phone :)

family pictures.2011.

i love my family.

we hadn't had family pictures taken since you used to take your kids to kiddie kandids

with old navy pull over fleece zip up vests.

we were so long over due with a shoot.

our photographer is so amazing.

she captured our family just perfectly.

the pictures of me and my little family make me so

proud.

i am so happy to be where i am today.

enjoy.

my poor brother having to grow up with 3 older sisters. haha :)

             oh kennedy rian. you are so gorgeous. sometimes it makes me cry to look at pictures like this.

my kids and niece are so lucky to have such an amazing grandpa. it's so cliche but he is honestly the best. just yesterday when kennedy and i were in disneyland- my dad wanted to keep jagger home to hang out with him instead of him going to grandma kerris :) the little things like that mean so much. especially to me. i didn't really have grandparents growing up so it really melts my heart to see how amazing of grandparents they are.

 and dang- i make some cute babies ;)

the most handsome almost 2 year old you'll ever see. man i love that little boy!!

my sister who makes me laugh until i pee my pants. isn't she beautiful? and my favorite niece. 

she loves me and can say chosh. i secretly don't ever want her to really learn how to say

my name. i think it's so dang cute

jaggers entertainment through the photoshoot. 

it definitely helped :)

                                                     

   my sister is so dang pretty.

we still fight like we're 12 sometimes

but i love her so much

my little brother is so grown up. and so dang cute.

he's single too ;)

 

if you find my brain please let me know

i swear. i lose everything. i think i have even blogged about it before. yesterday- my black scrubs. and todays lost item- my ipod. i haven't used it in weeks but i swear i can remember seeing it laying around. bahhh. it's not me i say- someone is playing tricks on me. the one night i am actually going to the gym i go to look for it and poof   it's gone. so now i'm here blogging :)

i feel like i have a million and one things to do. one of those things-not tell little miss we're going to disneyland. everytime i look at her i almost blurt out, ahh i can't wait until we go! or remember to pack your swimsuit. or something ridiculous that would ruin the surprise. 3 more days. i can do it.

pumpkin spice latte kind of day

today was theeee best day. i love when it's cloudy and rains all day. especially when i'm off work :) i went shopping for disneyland stuff, lunch with the bffe, got my new iphone!! and relaxed alllll alone {which i don't ever get to do} and then ended the day with picking up the babes and getting a pumpkin spice latte. i definitely could use more days like this
