Our basement.

So awhile ago we had some problems with our basement and flooding.  But we got the hot water heater  fixed and now the flooding has stopped...... home owners insurance is fixing all the damage.  Unfurtionitly for me Jaxons room is the only room we have remodeled since living here (forever) and that is the room that got damaged - and the bathroom down here (Dan also retiled that floor a few years ago, it got retiled again last week lol.)  They told us it would only take a week or so to repair, that was like five weeks ago ugh.  It kinda sucks, but I like the tile we chose.

Oopppsy!!!!!!!Happy Halloween

The Evil Queen!!

The Evil joker (that is silly)

I never did Post any pictures of the Kids at Halloween - I didnt get any good ones of Kashlynn - she just went out as a cute baby lol)

The cute baby

Kadreys fancy fingernails haha

The kids with their Lockwood cousins

The kids and their Montague cousins

Santa.......

                               The other day we braved the rain and went to see the lights at
                                Christmas Village ( with some cousins).  I know its not a very
                                picture of Jaxon but I think they are cute.

Blessing day for Super baby:)

Kashlynn was blessed at church on Sunday, by her daddy.   It was so special and she looked like a baby doll.  She is such a sweety.

I was playing with her in the kitchen today and me and dad decided that she is super baby:)  She is so strong and holds her own head up a lot of times.....she does kinda bobble with it still, so cute and funny!

WHAT?!  

We have all had days when our hair just is crazy and we don't know what to do with it, that is why pony tails were invented.  So what do you do when you are 10 wks old -
                                       the answer is just let it be crazy haha:)

2 months (and 2 days lol)

ok, so I am a couple of days late - I've been sick and we have been busy (always so busy).

Baby girl is already 2 months old boy does time go by fast or what.   She is already getting so big and cute (well, she already was cute - she was born that way)  she is smiling and everything.

PT confernce

It is that time of year already!
Both kids are doing well.

 Kadrey is "above" average in all areas of school.  It was so funny, they have to set a goal for the semester and her teacher could not think of anything that she needs to work on.  Even paying attention and talking are not really an issue for her right now.  She is very focused and really wants to go to Noter Dame when she grows up (she plans on being a Soccer Player and a Doctor - she is very ambushes:)  She knows that getting into a school like that requires you to be good at everything not just one thing and she does not want to go to a college that "anybody can go to."  The girl is so funny, and smart.  Love her for sure.



Jaxon is doing really well also.  The only place he is a little behind in is Math. Every other day he has math homework and he seems to do ok with that but his test scores are low his teacher said.  He is still deciding on a college (last I heard he wanted to go to Florida State, I think).  He always does his reading and homework - its this retell paper, and even though we struggle every other day with it (I have to explain how to do it EVERYTIME)  he has one of the best retell scores in the class. He is a total goofball and makes me laugh (sometimes it can get him into trouble though,  he has not figured out when to pick his moments or when enough is enough).  He sure is good at making other happy. I love him lots:)

4 weeks

It does not seem like we have had Kash for 4 weeks already.

She is such a good baby.  She usually only gets upset when she has to wait to long to eat:)  but everyone gets upset about that lol. Her burps are so loud, it cracks me up.   She does pretty good at bedtime - well, not last night, but most nights she does.  

My kids

They are growing up so fast. :(  I am sad about this.  Kash is already getting big and she will be 3 wks old tomorrow  - when I was pregnant the days seemed to drag by - now they fly:)  Kadrey was tiny once and now she is ten and getting so grown up (and talking back and having attitude lol)   Jaxon was not as tiny but still a baby and now he is so big (and acting like an eight year old haha).

 Kadrey and Jaxon are so exciting to have a baby in the house and are so good with Kash.  At first it was hard on Jaxon because he was worried that we would not remember Kourtney anymore - after we made sure he knew that was not the case he was more excited:)  He is such a sweetheart and a very wonderful big brother.  Kadrey loves loves being a  big sister and holding Kashlynn when ever she can - it is really helpful to me :)  she is an amazing sister.

Kashlynn Nicole

She is here yay!!!!!!!!  so precious and so cute:)  We are so excited and could not love her more.

She was born on 9-23 at 11:30 pm  I was only in labor for like 3 1/2  hours and everything went really smoothly:)  She is so tiny (ok she weighed 6lbs 12 oz,  so not really tiny but much smaller then the Doctor predicted she would weigh).  The eating thing was really hard for her in the begging, she ended losing like 10% of her body weight (which is not good), however we finally have that all under control and she has since gained it back.  yay!

We are so blessed to have her.  She brings a lot of happiness into our home.:)

creepy crawly, yuck! and cupcake wars

Jaxon had cupcake wars one day at his practice.  Whoever could get the other kid out of the "circle"  got a cupcake.  He won like 11 of them.   (now that is a lot of cupcakes)

                                                                                 Dan was getting Jaxon from football practice the other day and found this....  

                glad he did not bring it home.

Crazy Hair Day!

The kids had crazy hair day at their school last week - they were so excited about it and they loved it.  Silly kids......

going shorter

 A few days after school started the kids got hair cuts (from J.C. Penny's).  Jogee just got a trim around his ears and neck - he is trying to grow his hair out lol!  Kadrey had a much more drastic hair cut-

She wanted it shorter but mean mom said NO - that much hair to cut off was enough:)  She loves having it shorter - and really it is easier to do in the morning (not so easy for soccer when I am trying to pull it up haha)

The fair

Last month we took the kids to the Weber County Fair.  It was so hot, we only stayed for a bit.  The kids had a fun time with cousins and just being there.

  We watched duck races (and the old guy was singing  along with the radio, a hip hop song that surprised us that he knew lol and he was dancing with only his hands haha), we went to the petting zoo (that was really stinky),  the kids played a pitching game (each won twice and lost once - they are good little pitchers),  Also they got their faces painted.

my boy!!!!!!!!!

Jaxon decided to get baptised and his big day was this last Saturday (Sept. 1).  I am so proud of him - his Dad baptised him and then his Grandpa confirmed him.  He said that getting baptised was a lot of fun:)  He is growing up so fast and I am so proud of him. His cousin also got baptised that day.  We had a little BBQ  get-together thing after wards.  Even though it has been so hot lately it decided to rain that day, no in between weather for us - either unbearably hot or chilly:)

Back to School

Its that time already - the summer went by so fast.  I can not believe that I have a 5th grader and 3rd grader.  They are growing up so fast.  They are great kids and are very excited to be back in school ( I just hope the excitment last longer then a week - or day)

GOLD!

Kadrey played in a tournament for soccer this last weekend and her team won gold!  They came in 1st place in the U-11 girls category- yay!!!!!!!

Last year she played for her boys team and they won silver - the morning of her final game she told me "mom, I already have silver now I need gold - not another silver one"  lol.   She is so funny and determined.

Her coach told the team that if someone could score in the first 5 min the whole team would get shakes - she scored in 4 min and 56 sec.  and got her whole team a treat:)

4 Years Old!!!

Yesterday was sweet Kourtney's 4th birthday.  I love her so much much and I can not believe that it  has been four years :)   Love you Kourt!

Football!!!!!!!

 We signed Jaxon up to play football (before the Jeep broke down:( )  He has practice almost every night Mon-Fri and then games on Sat today was his first game.  It was fun to watch him play and I think now that he has played a game and is understanding it more he likes it more.   I think he does anyways:)  and I think I am too:)  it is harder with only one car and Kadrey having Soccer Practice 2x a week (some days I think what did we do:)  but really they are loving it and both are having fun.
