Welcome to our blog!

I am Sandra, wife to my wonderful husband Gerry, and mommy to 3 awesome and amazing and totally wild kids, Cameron (5.5) and Evan (2) & our newest addition, Aubrey (born 10/18/2011). My beautiful profile pic is courtesy of my dear friend Susan Stripling.

Happy Spring!

Posted on April 6, 2012

Wow, its April already?! I totally missed March. We have had such amazing weather, we have been so busy playing outside and running all the built up energy we stored in the winter. The kids are loving the weather. Cameron wants to ride his bike all the time, Evan wants nothing more than the run around outback and either climb the swinset or kick a ball, and Aubrey girl loves it when we take her exersaucer outside and let her play on the back porch watching her crazy wild brothers run around, she just sits there CRACKING up.

Camerons birthday is in a few days. He’s going to be 6. SIX! When did that happen!? HOW?!?!? I can not believe it. He’s turning into such a…KID. It amazes me. Any trace of baby, toddler, preschooler like behavior is slowly making its way out the door.

Evan is starting to show his version of the terrible twos. In all honesty, I don’t know if its because I have learned how to deal with them after Cameron or if he just has a “milder” case, but its honestly not that bad. His “fits” just are moaning crys and usually result in throwing ourselves on the floor, face down to cry and than within a few mintues or seconds really, he gets up and says all done and we move on. Not too bad ha!

Aubrey girl has learned to roll over back to belly. Just like Evan, she had a hard time getting over the chubby little arms that she has, but she finally did it, without me seeing of course. Day in and day out, we sat on the floor with her trying to get her to roll. Go figure, one morning, I leave her on the floor to go get Evan milk, I come back out, and what do you know, she was rolled over and looking up at me laughing. Little stinker. She is starting to gain more strength and sits up with a little assistance. We discovered that she does NOT like Oatmeal or Carrots. Usually results in massive spit up.

All in all, everyone is doing wonderful. Happy and healthy. It’s all we can ask for. I am really excited for the summer and being able to spend lots of time with the kids at the pool or doing little day trips with their cousins around the area.
