Things I LOVE!!

This Face!
This Face!
This Face!
This Face!
Oh and this one too!
When Riley and the kids spend time together
This beautiful little girl, who is 7 going to 16!
This SILLY kid!
This Silly kid!
This messy face!
My 3 sons!
My Daughter!
When they all get along!
The trouble that these 2 get into together!
The trouble that he gets into alone!
These 2 kids are the best big brother and sister that I could ask for!

This silly kid!
The things that she likes to do!
Riley!
Going to Disneyland with my family!
Going to the Beach with my family!
Yesterday morning Corbin asked "how many more days until we go to St. George" (we are spending Thanksgiving there with Riley's family!) I told him 2 more days.
So, then Keegan asked "mom, George?"
I said "2 more days",
He said "No, now!"
I said, "We can't go now, we are going in 2 days."
He said, "No mom, now."
We talked about who we are going to see when we go to St. George, and then I changed the subject.
So, this morning, Keegan asked "Mom, going George?"
I said "not today, Tomorrow."
He walked away, but kept coming back, "mom, George?"
I just kept saying "Tomorrow"
I am sure in the morning, he will be asking "Mom, George?"
And I will get to say "Tonight!"
He gets things in his head and then says them over and over and over again! Even though I answer him, he will ask at least 20 times before he is satisfied with the answer! He kills me! I love that he is learning so much and growing, I just wish he wasn't doing it all so fast!!

Kaylix went to the Dr. for his 15 mo check up today, he is tall and skinny, just like the rest of the bunch! We think that he is so small, but Dr says he is the size of an average 22 month old. So, I guess he is not as small as we think! I lovingly call him my terrorist! He can destroy anything in 0.2 seconds, not even flinch, and be moving onto the next path of destruction. Man, some days it is all I can do to keep up with him! I really love nap time, I can clean up the mornings destruction then he makes the afternoon mess, and he lays back down and I can clean that up to, and not have to keep up with him for 2 hours!

Chelsey and Corbin had parent teacher conferences tonight. I am so proud of my kids and how wonderful and smart they are! Both of their teachers had nothing BUT good to say about them. The only things Corbin teacher could say was, he needs to work on his handwriting!
Chelsey and I battled every night last year to do her homework, she would cry and yell and throw fits and it was really hard, this year things are much better, the only thing is, we really need to work on her reading skills. Since we fought last year, I don't think that she progressed to where she should be. Well, she is where she should be, but there are things that we need to work on with her fluency! But they both are awesome! I love them and I am very proud of them! Chelsey's teachers talked about what a great helper she is and how she does her work quickly and then helps other people, she does that at home too! She is a great helper.
As for me, I am grateful for all the many things that I have in my life that make me happy! For all the love and support of family and for the great people that surround me.

Night!
