Can't wait for spring!

It has been VERY cold outside here! So there have not been a lot of days for the kids to get out and release some energy! So we really lucked out on Super Bowl Sunday when our BIG sledding Party was planned for! It was beautiful out and away we went to Onanda and Sledded for hours! When we left we got home and Brianna and Austin wanted to stay out. I had to call them in at 4:30 to come get ready to leave. It was a gorgeous day and tons of fun with family and friends!

Austin the All Star!!!!

Alright so Austin has loved baseball since I can remember! He has always had a bat, a ball or a mitt in his hand. I am not sure where is love for baseball came from but he can play a whole game by himself in our yard. This year after his regular baseball season he was selected for the Canandaigua All Star Team. That is 12 boys out of like 100 other boys! I think that is pretty impressive. Anyway, they ended up having an All-Star Season of 19-0. They won EVERY one of there games! It was so Awesome to watch! I am so proud of him!

School is Back in session!!

I am so glad and a little sad at the same time! The girls have been at each other throats which in turn makes me crazy! They are sharing a room and they get along one minute and the next it is World War going on! I wish I could figure them out but I can't! I did the same things with my sisters! I just wish they would listen to me when I tell them that there sister will be the Best Friend they will have when they are older! They both look at me and roll there eyes! They will see!!!!

Austin has grown so fast and is now in 4th grade! It seems like yesterday we were sending the girls off to school and had the whole day to ourselves! Not anymore! Is is the last one we put on the bus. Gone are the days that I got all the kids off at the same time. Now Jordan is in high school and Brianna is in Middle School and Austin is in Elementary! Austin has his first male teacher who is seems to enjoy so far. it just so happens he was also my tennis coach! Go figure! Hopefully he will continue to enjoy school!

Austin was sad to leave his Thomas behind! He is so excited to see the kids when they come home! He wakes up from his nap and they are home!

Jordan turns 14!

WOW!!! I have a 14 year old! Long gone are the days where I pull out my camera and take her picture! She sees the camera and runs to her room to get ready for a picture. I was looking through pictures that I have recently taken and there are not many of her because she either hides or runs to get ready! By the time she comes back the photo op is over and or we have moved on. She did not flow into the teenager bit she just jumped in head first! I love how confident she is to be who she is! She dresses in clothes she loves does not care what others think! If she thinks she looks good that is all that matters! She has grown into a beautiful girl although I wish she would get rid of some of the make up on her face! She is beautiful without it! She has grown over night it feels like to me! We redid her room for her birthday! She loves it and so do I. I told her I was jealous and wished that I had a room like that when I was her age! She is a Shining Star! Wow I have a 14 year old!

Time Flies!

Wow how time flies! Christmas has come and gone! I haven't posted anything in awhile. We were so lucky to celebrate Thomas's first Christmas. The kids had such a wonderful time. They got to see family members that they do not get to see very often. We were very busy the whole month of December! I can not believe that it is already over. It is amazing how fast the time is flying by! My children are growing so fast it amazes me!

Summer Time!

So it is summer time and the kids are swimming and having a blast! Jordan won't let me get any good pictures of her so I have none to post! The other kids on the other hand jump at the chance to get in front of the Camera! I am determined to turn Thomas into a water baby and he hasn't been hard to convince! Apparently he loves the water! He loves his baths I just wasn't sure how he would react to COLD water!

Summer Reading

SO I had been reading this book for a few weeks (which is not like me to take so long) and I was getting to the end so I was sitting with Thomas and apparently bored him to sleep! I finished the book and he got a good nap! What a good boy he knew I wanted to finish my book! I usually get my books read in a week and this one had taken me a few weeks! I wonder why? Between taking care of 4 kids and running between soccer, baseball, softball for myself, and all of our other running around I wonder why it was taking me so long! I can not wait to get James Patterson's new one the SWIMSUIT!!! I just finished Jodi Picoult's Handle with Care it was very good and she always throws you at the end you never expect whats coming!

Mason Thomas has arrived!

The newest nephew and cousin has finally arrived!!!! Mason was born on March 7th! We are so excited to welcome him into our family!!! It seemed like he took awhile to come even tho he was early! Emma was so excited to have a baby brother of her own! Thomas is excited to have someone his size around the family! Although he looks way bigger the Mason give him a few months and they will be the same size and running or rolling around together!! I can not wait!

The newest Addition to our family is finally here!

Ethan, Jordan, Brianna, Austin and I welcomed our new baby boy on March 24, 2009! It happened so fast no one could believe it! I went into my appointment at 28 weeks and 6 days expecting for them to say they would induce me on Friday which was 3 days away. I had had high blood pressure tons of swelling in my feet. I had gone the week before for a non-stress test. They said everything was fine and then I was sent over again for another one right after my appointment. Dr. Scott said if all was okay he would let me go home and come back on Wednesday the next morning to be induced. unfortunately my labs did not come back good and they induced me right then and there. Let me tell you Thomas was obviously ready to come out because from the time they started petocin it took 2 hours to deliver my water broke on its own and I just dilated so fast! He came out and was bruised from the fast delivery! Poor Baby! It went away that night but I felt so bad for him. He is such a joy to have and he completes our family! The kids love him to pieces and are always helping out and wanting to hold and hug and kiss him! I am so very thankful he came out happy and healthy! We are so lucky to have him in our lives!

Bowling!

Well this was taken a few days before Christie's surgery. We were all scared to death but no one wanted to show it. She wanted to spend some QT with all of her niece's and nephews. So we went for an adventure at the bowling alley. Lindsey came home from California for the week, Katy came from Michigan just so everyone could spend some time with Christie before the BIG stressful day! Although it was so scary she actually came out of it well and is doing great which we are all so happy! It could have been so much worse!! Thank Goodness!! Thank you to everyone who came and spent time with her and has prayed and helped! We hope she has a speedy recovery! We love you Aunt Christie!

The Baby Shower

So my sister's and Stephanie and the grandma's had a baby shower for this lucky little guy and it was so sweet. They had fun games, delicious food and a really good time not to mention all the great stuff we got. Thanks for all of your hard work girls we appreciate it so much!!! We love you all! This little guy is going to be so lucky to have Aunts and Grandma's that love him so much!
