Locked out

For the longest time my blog was frozen and I couldn't log in to it.  So it has been months and I pretty much gave up.  All of sudden it is working again.  I would love to promise you lots of posts, but let's be real here people.  I am a busy mom of 5, so let's just see...

Lexie Grace

She is loved so much, I hope she survives!  

Easter 2012

Quentin's Birthday!

 Quentin turned 9 this week, so we decided to get angry about it.

Changes...

We said good-bye to our old home and have started our new journey.   We were worried about the kids changing schools and making new friends, but our prayers have been answered.  

We have found lots of new places to play.

Lots of new places to eat.  We had to introduce our kids to Krispie Creme!

Even a new place to relax.

We love our new house and can't wait to be unpacked so we can just hang out!

Twins are two!

Lexie is getting so big and aware of everything! Sorry I had to throw in a picture of her too! Check out that red hair....
Time flies when you having fun, my twins are two!

We had a great time at Discovery Gateway while the big kids were at school.


Carly loved the birthday hat Hallee made for her.
Checking out the new zoo.
Double the cake, double the mess, double the fun!

oh, by the way we sold our house!

January in Review

And it is gone... Where did January go? Here is our recap.



Aaron still likes to find trouble and explore everything.



Quentin and Dan wanted to be a little "white trash" for the afternoon and check out the monster truck show. It was good male bonding time and luckily they didn't come home with any tattoos.



My sweet baby started sleeping through the night.



Hallee turned 7 and had a fun Squinkie party.



Lexie got bigger and cuter every day.



Hallee realized how much fun it is to be a big sister and that her Carly will do whatever she tells her to do.



Quentin made a birdhouse for cub scouts, he can't wait for spring so the birds will come and eat some food.



Yes, with all that we are still pretty crazy, just like Carly's hair!

December

Whenever I was asked what I wanted for Christmas, I would say "a nap!" I am grateful I got what I wanted, even though it wasn't fun. My family got the stomach flu for Christmas this year. Everyone had it on a different day, so Dan watched all the kids while I rested. I guess you have to be careful what you wish for.

Next year I will ask for more of these sweet smiles:









We rang in the new year with our new favorite family game "Just Dance." So far Quentin is the one to beat.
