Meet Molly

Meet Molly Smith. She was born June 11th weighing in at 6lbs. 2 oz. and 16 1/2 inches long. Congratulations to Jeni, Sean and to her big sister Meghan and big brother Micah. Meghan is one of Taylor's good friends and Jeni and I have become friends also throough our girls. We wish your family the best of luck.

Where do I begin???...

Well first off we sold our house. Yes time to pack up and move...not fun. My days and nights have consisted of packing and moving stuff to storage. We have finally found a house to rent and that's because we are going to have a house built. This move makes me so sad and yet so happy all at the same time. Happy because we need a bigger house for our little munchkins to run around in and hopefully a bedroom for everyone. But sad, because these people in my neighborhood are not just my neighbors. They have become my friends, my life. I hope that when we move we still get invited to neighborhood party and bon fires. I hope that we can still play with the Edmonson boys when we please. And that Nicole and I can still switch off babysitting eachother's kids. Just makes me sad...I will miss everyone in this place so much. And Gene and Darleen who live next to us, they are also moving but their going to Virginia and I wish them lots of luck on their new adventures.

On a much happier note, the kids and I are going to DISNEY!!!! Yep just 5 days away now. Taylor is showing mixed emotions. She is deathly scared to fly but wants to go sooooo bad. Alyssa has no clue what's going on. And Michael. well that kid is another story. He can't wait to go. My mother-in-law asked him last night if she was going to fly on a big airplain to Disney world and he replied " No were going to drive in a Limo!" Well that's partly true. We have to fly there and then we are taking a limo to the Hotel from the airport. That's all he's looking forward to...the Limo ride. He's to stinkin cute!!!! There is a Limo place down the street from our house and there is a bright yellow hummer limo there. I think that's what he thinks were going to be riding in...he's in for a big surprise!! HAHA

I will not be taking pictures with my digital camera while we are in Florida because I had to send it back because the flash is not working. Of course right before our trip. I was going to keep it but I thought I would try to sent it and see if I can get it back before I go. If not I will probably try to get one of those disposable camera's they have digital ones now. I'm just not sure how the quality will br though. I think I will have to buy like 20 of them. Better buy some now and get a head start. They will be expensive in Disney?!?!?!?!

This will be a busy next few weeks for me. We close on our house on Monday, Thursday we go do Disney, the next monday we move and I won't be back till Tuesday. So this is probably it till about mid July when we are moved and settled. I will send everyone our new address via e-mail in a day or two before the somputer gets shuts down. Till next time...take care, we'll miss you neighbors!!!!!!

This is Coop...Isn't he soooooo handsome!!
Coop and Stella. They are both in Michael's class... The next picture is Jaden. She is also in Michael's class. She was just dying for my to take her picture...and since she is cute I did!!

Pre-school

Here are all the boys in Michael's class. This was Ice Cream Sunday day. They are all patiently waiting to be handed their bowls!!
Daddy also came for ice cream!

These are all the girls in his class...

So grown up...

Just look at my girl...my how she has grown. It seems like just yesterday that she was a baby in my arms, and now look...she's almost 9 years old. How time flies...
These are just random shots of Tay Tay getting ready for school. She is beautiful...Not to mention her new outfit...

Family Updates...

Okay so I do realize that I'm not so good updating my BLOG...but I do have TONS of kids in my house on a daily basis and yes that is a good excuse...

My kids have been SICK...YUCK...But so true...First Alyssa had like who knows what...like a fever virus. She had a fever for like 4 or 5 days, this was like 3 weeks ago...
Then Michael woke up last week with what I thought was pink eye...I called the doctor and she said that she would call in a RX for him...$50 for that stupid medicine just to find out that 3 days after being on this medicine it's not pink eye...WHAT...So I have to take him and ALL the kids I watch to the doctor to find out that he has a really bad sinus infection, his ducts are all clogged and not instead of having a runny nose it's coming out the poor kids EYE. So after paying a copay and buying MORE medicine we pay another $70. It was worth it because a week and 3 days later his eye is back to normal...But were not done yet NOPE...Taylor has to get sick too. Yep just like the other ones...She comes home from School Last Tuesday with a 101.7 fever. Taylor...no she NEVER runs a fever...Okay go pick her up and take her to the doctor and find out she has STREP...Poor thing...another $50... Then her and michael get diahrrea from the antibiotics...yes lets have it all...BUT NOW...we are all better...

So need less to say I have been busy trying to get my kids healthy again, and that's not a fun job...Alyssa is so jealous of me...if Tay or Bubba comes to hug me or sit with me or whatever she comes right over SCREAMING at the top of her lungs and pushing them away from me...so when their sick and Lee Lee is not she doesn't like for me to be with the other two and not her...Takes so much energy out of and already lazy women!!!

So other than sickness... Taylor and I have been trying to prepare for her EOG'S ( End of Grade Testing) This is the first year for that and it is HARD for me...We did 43 word problems on Sunday and I wasn't even sure if we were getting them all right...POOR TAYLOR...She needs Papa to help her. He does like atleast one word problem a day...HELP!!!!

Michael...incase you already didn't know is ALL BOY...Let me tell you what he did last night. We took a walk around the neighborhood and he was way to far ahead of me. So I told him to come back and when he did...His helmet fell over his eyes and he couldn't see what he was doing and went face first right into a mailbox....yep landed right on the pavement and his bike was still going. Looked like a stunt from the movies or something. He is alright. THANK GOD the helmet covered his forehead and eyes, but he had a bloody nose and his top and bottom lips are cut up and scraped and bleeding all over. At first I couldn't tell where all the blood was coming from so we ran into my neighbor's house and she helped me calm down and clean him up. This is going to be the YEAR for a broken bone or stitches...I CAN TELL...

And PRINCESS LEE LEE...She'll get you with her bright blue eyes and that Bleach blonde hair...She is saying so much...NO, I DUH NO, BUBBA DO, UH AH, and much more...She tells me in the grocery store what to buy her... She point out Bologna, Cheese Sticks, Gold Fish...She loves to shop with me. She can ride Michael's 4 wheeler all by herself, but we try to keep the battery out or unplugged and tell her it's broke because she is not a good driver...YET!

Well I better get going...Till next time...

Correction if I may...

I would like everyone to know that I did look at the date

Jay's Teeth

WOW...I just can't beleive that Jay is going to be 6 months old in 12 days!! Do you see his first two teeth!! He is such a big boy, a happy boy!! I haven't seen Jay in a few weeks now because of our schedules and my kids were sick but we miss you bud and can't wait to see you soon. WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!

Our first trip to Carowinds this season!!

AAHH YES, DORA!! We had so much fun watching Dora and Boots dance on stage.

We went last monday when the kids were on spring break!! We met Moriah and the boys there. It was so much fun. We can't wait to go back!

Our Easter

Well I know this is late, but at least it's here!! Alyssa found her basket first. It was so funny because as you see she didn't even move the basket. She sat right down and started digging through it. I was laughing so hard.

So finally I said, " pick it up Lee Lee" and so out she came withthe basket. So proud of herself!!

And then the "SUGAR HIGH" began!! Hope everyone had a great Easter!!

Bubba found his basket second. It was behind the couch!!

Taylor just found her easter basket!!

HHUUUMMM...What's in here??????

SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW...Spring is finally here!! Thank god...Now I don't HAVE to put shoe's on the kids if I am too lazy. The weather has been in the 70's and 80's and I am lovin it!! The kids are too. Lee Lee still brings me her coat when we leave and the she gets so upset when I don't put it on her. After we get outside she is fine. It must kick in that she REALLY doesn't need it. HA SHE IS TOOOOO FUNNY!!

I took the kids on Saturday afternoon to get some summer clothes. It always seems like Michael and Alyssa get so much more that Taylor. Her clothes are just that much more expensive. I spent $65 a piece. Not alot but $200 is alot to spend!! Anyways they are all pleased and looking good~~~~It was so nice to take them and just spend.
Taylor~ 3 pairs of shorts, 4 shirts, and 2 pairs of flip flops
Michael~ 2 pairs of shorts, 6 shirts, and 2 pairs of flip flops
Alyssa~ 4 pairs of shorts, 7 shirts, and 1 pair of sandles
Corine~ 2 shirts, and 2 pairs of flip flops

So I would just like to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to all my family members who have Birthdays in March!! I am not really good at sending cards. I have only sent one out this year so far and you know who you are....you lucky ducky!! Anyways we miss you all and wish we could be with you on your birthday!! We would send gifts but were BROKE!! HAHAHAHA.....Right Jamie Jr.~~~
Oh no it's because I don't have the time~~~~~LOL...Anyways till next time!

My other daughter...

Kailee...she is just like one of my own. And when they argue, it's just like siblings...and they just get over it like siblings also!! This was one morning when she arrived Taylor and Michael were in my bed laying down...she went in an helped herself up...they just made room for her. What a good kid!!

Lee Lee

This is her new hiding spot. The kids have been playing hide and seek in the house and one day Alyssa decided she was going to play too and this is where she ended up!!

Say HELLO Lee lee~~~~~~~~
