School

Well we have been super busy. The kids are doing great in school and love it! Madelynn is walking around every where now! I know she gets into more, but i love her walking! i cant believe how fast they are growing up. Its sad to know that all of maddies first will be the last first we have, but our family is perfect and we dont need any more! LOL! Marc is doing good. He loves his job. Marc plays on a soccer team and they had a game every sunday night. We all go out to watch him as a family. I am doing good, no luck in the job department though. I was telling mom that maybe im not getting a job because i need to be with the kids through all of their stuff. Colton has an appointment on October 28th. They tell us he will more than likely need another surgery on his eye. We are praying that what ever we have to do that it will fix the problem for good. I am soo excited because on Monday October 13th i start school. I am taking online classes to get my associates and then on to get my bachelors. I am soo happy. I have taken certificate programs but it will be nice to actually get a degree from an University! Im nervouse but excited at the same time! Well that it is all for now! We love and miss you all!

Happy Birthday Madelynn Elizabeth
August 30th 2007
7 lbs 2oz 19 1/2 inches long 10:47pm





Daddy and Madelynn right after she was born. I cant believe my baby
girl is already one. It seems like yesterday I was miserable in the heat
of the summer and ready to have her. Now she is one year old and standing up all by herself.













Mamaw and Madelynn only a couple days old.








Papaw and Madelynn right after she was born.










Madelynn Elizabeth one whole day old!

The kids

The kids are all doing great. Colton and Kylie just celebrated their brithdays as everyone knows. Colton is now 6 and Kylie is now 4! I cant believe how time fly's. Colton will be starting the first grade next month and is so excited. Kylie will be starting pre-k at her bubba's old school and thinks thats the coolest thing ever! Madelynn will celebrate her first birthday next month! It seems like yesterday that Julie, Cindi, and Misty were just here and I was miserably pregnant! Madelynn is a big ball of attitude in a very tiny body. I took her to the dr a few weeks ago and ever though she is 11 months she is the size of a 4 month old. Madelynn does not lack food though, i dont think i have ever seen a baby eat as much as she does! Colton will be having another surgery on his eye. Childrens hospital couldnt get him in until October 28th so after that appointment we will find out the date of his surgery. Kylie goes to the urologist tomorrow. The doctors cant figure out why she keeps having UTI's. Hopefully we can get some answers tomorrow and it will just be a problem that can be fixed easily. I will keep every one updated!









Colton, Kylie and Madelynn!! This picture was very hard to get! LOL!









Colton loves to swim! Even though he try's to tell me he doesnt need floaties, i still make him wear them!











Kylie i think was born a fish, that girl wants to be in the water all day every day!







They love to swim!









Madelynn is not a big fan of the pool but she loves to take a bath! We stick to the sink for right now because its alot easier on my back and she still fits!

4th of July

We had a great 4th of July weekend. On the 3rd we went to the High school and they had bounce house's and a bunch of stuff for the kids to do. We watched the fire works on the field which the kids loved. Sorry a couple of the pictures are dark, i had no flash. On July 4th we went and watched the parade and the kids gathered up a ton of candy. They passed out flags to everyone at the start of the parade. Madelynn didnt put her's down, she had so much fun!
















Kylie and her cousin Jami who is the same age had alot of fun with their glow sticks ( again sorry about the dark pictures)








Kylie loves pictures!













Colton does not like to take pictures so he would only let me take a picture if he could have his glowstick by his face!

June 13th 2008

Well today is another regular day. I have been watching my two nephews for the past week so its been hard going from 3 kids to 5. I dont know everyone does it with that many kids to take care of, i take my hat off to you!

Colton is attending summer school right now. He goes Monday through Thursday 8-12. They said he didnt have to go but that it would benifit him so i said why not. Colton loves school so he doesnt really have a problem with it, and being the age of almost 6 i dont really think he even knows that everyone else is on summer except the kids that are with him at school!

Kylie turns 4 on sunday which is also Fathers Day. Colton and Kylie both think that their birthday lasts all month long, but that is probably due to the fact that we have 2 birthday parties for them and so it really does last all month long!! Next weekend we are having a BIG BIRTHDAY BASH at moms house with a water slide, a homemade beach , pools and alot more!! We are sooooo excited its going to be a blast! I will for sure put pics up!!

Here are a couple of pictures from the past couple of days, its pics of the kids playing outside with their cousins.

We had a blast visiting with Grandma, Grandpa, Misty and of course Luke. The kids were so excited to see everyone. We are so proud of chaz and a little sad that he is now moving on into the world to make his own mark. Time flys by so fast it seems like yesterday we were playing outside and grandma and grandpa's house and now we have family's of our own and starting college.
Here are some pictures from our GREAT week we had with everyone! We love and miss everyone!
