Thank You!
We did have a great Thanksgiving, and the kids are getting so BiG! Acen LOVES going to day care! He wakes up and first thing he has to get dressed and get his hair combed! Such a morning boy!
Gracie is doing really good, missing her daddy tho. He is in St. George for a little while, but she will see him at Christmas! She is switching schools... she will be starting Mckinley on Monday. I was worried how she would take this, but we had a long talk about it and as much as I thought she would be sad she wasnt! She was actually very excited. She has been having some trouble at North Park with some kids there, and I think she was ready for a new start! She has such a fun personality I know she will make new friends quickly!

OuR FuN DaY!
Today i took the kids to Gateway to build a bear! Gracie has wanted to go and i told her after she was done with Kindergarten i would take her. She got a dog and named her Ellie.
Acen got a monkey who we named Max! We put the little sounds in them so his makes the monkey sound and he does a little dance while it goes 'ooo aaah' so cute!
(sorry about the mouth full of chewed up popcorn :/ )
They also ran through the water and had a BLAST! We had such a fun day, I love days we can just go and have nothing to do but whatever comes up!

YoU THiNk YoU HaD A BaD DaY...
so, the rather large male cat that has been hanging around our house ripped a HUGE hole in my screen on my screen door... well Gracie's cat is small enough to get in the hole and then she crawls up the screen and gets stuck between the glass and the screen on the door... so i had to get a pic of this because it is so funny!

CaN'T SToP!!!!
So I can't stop watching the trailer for New Moon the movie based on the 2nd book of the Twilight saga! Trisa and i have decided we will FOR SURE be at the midnight showing of this! Gracie also wants to come with us! And she is just as addicted to the trailer as i am! She loves Twilight and watches it just about everyday! She even had me read a bit of the books to her while i was reading them... I am so so so super excited!

NoT ToO MuCh....
(yes i know Acen is choking the poor thing we are working on teaching him how to hold animals please dont report us, the cat was not hurt!)
So not a whole lot has happened since my last post... Gracie is loving not having school, i on the other hand miss my little 'break' lol but she has found something to pass the time, the other day we had this darling little kitten show up at our house, tame as can be, and she is loving every minute of it! She named her Patch, and cant bear to put her outside, she claims that the other cats 'pick' on her... but i told her i seen (and this is totally 100% true) this little kitten swatted off the two adult cats when i gave her milk! So i think Patch is the bully! Shad took Gracie fishing today, and they caught a few good ones, i didn't get any pics tho :/ Gracie said that she and her dad had alot of fun without her little "bother" as she calls him i have no idea where she heard this or come up with it, but.... i asked her how is he a bother? he just loves you! and she said he is always in her way... mk.. whatever! well this is about it for now.. hope you are all well!

So after a few missed bus rides, and crazy mornings, we finally made it through Kindergarten.... Gracie is so super excited to start 1st grade! She did such a good job this year and i am so so proud of her! She made many new friends and her teacher was super awsome! I cant wait to see how next year goes!!! We went to her little graduation program last week and they sang songs they have learned and got their little diploma's!! WAY TO GO GRACIE!

MoTHeRs DaY!
Gracie made this really cute Mothers Day cookbook at school for me! Her teacher had each of the kids tell her the recipe to their favorite things to make.. When I got Gracie off the bus and she was telling me about this book she had made and that she got to tell her teacher how we make foods at our house to put in a cookbook, i was a little nervous.. and those of you who know Gracie well know why i was a little scared as to what was in this 'book'... But to my surprise she actually did a really good job! This was such a cute idea and once again made me realize she is growing up so fast and such a darling little girl she is!
On Saturday i took Acen to have his well child check up since we were behind on his shots.. we missed his 15 & 18 month shots... not too bad but i hate to be behind! So umm.. it was AWFUL! i had given him some Motrin before we left because he always does terrible with his shots.. fevers and all that bad stuff..so we get there and i thought i was doing good since i made the appt. at 10am and nap time was at 12 (or so) and i figured good i will get his shots and by the time we get home it will be nap time all good... not so much! They were behind at the doctors office.. so we had to be in the waiting room for ONE HOUR! He was so bored and tired by this time (the Motrin kicked in) and then they FINALLY called us back and then we were in the room for another HALF HOUR! He got so mad and threw himself on the hard tiled floor and banged his head so hard he had a huge red bump on his forehead! FINALLY the doctor came in i was about to blow up! They went over all his growth and he is doing so good! He is very small tho his height was in the 75% and his head circ. was 50% but my little peanut of a boy was only in the 4% of his weight! The doctor didn't seem concerned he said he looks just fine and has great muscle tone.. i guess he will just be small like his daddy! He is starting to talk more and more everyday! he says mom, dad, Gracie, pepper (the cat) hello, bye, luv u, night night, thank you, yes , no , hot , more.. and his latest new word he just started the other day when pepper knocked him down and stole his ice cream i told him 'daddy will bring you home another one, ok?' and he replied 'ook..i sad..' it was the saddest thing ever and he was so very sad when he said it! :( he is also growing up so much it honestly kills me! i love being a mom and i love my kids so much! Mothers Day is hard for me i still do think of the little one i am missing.. but until i can be with him again i will still love and cherish what i have! :)

WHaT To DO WHeN iT's RAiNiNG...
So today was really rainy.. and i don't know about you but my kids are ITCHING to be outside! So Gracie decided to put on her swimsuit for some reason and then she decided to put Acen in one of her suits too! O.o lol He didn't really care that it was a girl suit... he has one of his own, but she wanted him to wear her old one :/ Shad was less that thrilled by this, but i thought it was cute.. and funny!
