Almost Christmas.......

And I haven't bought a single gift yet!!!!! Panic mode. But I wait until the last minute every year so this should be no surprise:) Jarrett is gone again, Illinois this time. I hate him being gone during the holidays, makes us miss him even more. Can't wait for him to come home and take us to see the Christmas lights!

We are a house full of sickos right now. Just chest colds but still no fun especially with Jarrett gone and no one to help with the little monsters.  Piper is getting her two molars and is a MONSTER!!! But still oh so funny. That girl is a mess.  Rylee is loving cheer and hip hop. I can't wait to see her Christmas performance.  Raider is still enjoying cubscouts but insists he is doing wrestling instead next year so we shall see. We are also doing Girlscouts and 4-H so busy busy busy!

We are doing elf on the shelf this year but so far our elf is kinda lazy lol. The kids love it! I got conned into being in our church Chistmas play so that should be interesting! Well I guess thats all for now, Lets see if I have any new pics to post:)

Fires! and Dance:)

Well it hasn't been months since my last post which means I am improving! Good news is we still have a house! We had crazy wildfires here all last week and a few are still sparking back up here and there. So many homes were lost:( My hometown was evacuated, it almost burnt down the school just crazy! Rumor is that someone is setting them but no one has been arrested yet. I don't know what kind of scum would do that but with the way this world is nowadays nothing would surprise me:(

On a happier note my little diva is now doing cheer and hip hop! Can't wait to watch the hip hop, that is going to be adorable! She has been doing cheer all Summer and loves it. She just finished cheer camp and they did the cutest little dance at the end of camp to Party in the USA:) Today was the first day of Fall Cheer.

and I guess that's about it for today. Nothing too exciting. Jarrett is in Kansas for a couple weeks so its just me and the kiddos. Trying to get them ready to go back to school. But seeing as its after 10 pm and they are still awake I guess I'm not doing a very good job huh lol. Gotta get off of here and put the monsters to sleep...AGAIN!

awww sentimental moment:(

I kinda forgot I even had to blog until I tried to follow a blog today and had to log in to do so. But I went through all my old posts with tears in my eyes. So crazy to see how my babies have grown up! In my first blog post my first born was 4 now he is 8!!!! I have an 8 year old! How crazy is that???? And seeing me talk about him being such a terror and him getting kicked out of pre k lol, little did we know that we would come to find out he has adhd and is now such a sweetheart and doing so well in school:)  And seeing my pregnancy and infants pictures of Piper and now seeing this crazy little 2 year old running around in front of me! And my little Rylee looked soooo sweet in the old pics, boy did she have us fooled lol that girl is the brattiest, most high maintenance diva I have ever met! But god I love them all. And to think Jarrett and I just celebrated our 9 year anniversary! Wow, just thoughts of precious memories. Ok I'll stop being sappy now:) Not really any new pics to post that you haven't already seen on facebook so as I promised I WILL be using my real camera more and plan to do some new pics of my cuties:)

I told you I suck at blogging

I just can't keep up! Soooo what has happened. Sadly our adorable little puppy was only with us for a month and a half before he suddenly got sick and died. We all took it really hard. Crazy how fast you can get attached to something. What else....I am trying to break Piper from napping in her swing. That is not going over so well. That girl is addicted to that swing, but it is creaking now from her weight lol. She's a chunk. Tomorrow is Raiders last day of school before fall break! I usually look forward to breaks but my gosh him and Rylee fight constantly these days so we will see how that goes. I have got to start Christmas shopping! It snuck up on me again like it always does.
Rylee turned 4! She got a new barbie bike! We are having her party this weekend so that should be fun:) Ok well I guess thats about it so here's some pics.

The latest

My poor little guy slammed his hand in the door of my SUV and fractured it:(

The newest member of our family:)

We have been looking for a boxer or boxer mix all weekend. We found this little guy for sale on the side of the road when we took the kids for lunch. They were not going to let us leave without him!

He is is 8 weeks old and very adorable. Such a good dog:)

.....

So whats happening here. Not too much. Jarrett is out of town working for a couple weeks so its just me and the kids. I am hoping he gets to come in long enough to take us to the fair for my birthday. I Love the fair! I can't believe I am going to be 28 next month. Crazy! I don't feel that old so I guess that's what counts:) Piper will be 4 months old in a few days. She is getting big way too fast! She is rolling all over the place and I got her first big belly laugh yesterday! Raider and Rylee are still loving dance and tumbling. Jarrett was finally in town last week and got to go watch them.
Raider lost his second tooth and his new tooth is already growing in.
Piper is modeling for a local boutique so we got a really cute fall outfit for her to model. I need to get those pictures done tomorrow. Here are some I did of the girls last week.

Ok so I guess thats it for tonight. Back to my addiction. "Teen Mom"
