Christmas 2008

2009-02-11T18:55:00.003-06:00

Wow, I can't believe that it has been almost 2 monthes since my last posting. It's been so long, it doesn't feel fun right now, with all the updates it almost feels like homework. Let's face it, homework was never anything I was great at. Well, I'm going to do a little at a time. More updating in the weeks to come!
Here is our Christmas tree after Santa came. He left a Wii for Amberly and Brenton, and a swingset for Avery and Brily.
This was my favorite dress when I was little. Dad and Susan cleaned it for me and sent it. I gave it to Amberly, and now she is wearing all around the house.
Avery and Brily got new babies and strollers. They love them so much!
Robin got a set of juggling balls. Now he is just trying to learn some new tricks.
Avery and Brily love thier new table that mom and Tracy got for them.
Mom and Tracy also got Amberly a scooter, and Brenton a go-kart. Do I even have to tell you that they love them?

Mom had Brily in a trance during a dance.
My sister got to come for Christmas this year. While she was here we celebrated her and my mom's birthdays.Here was our house all lit up. We had a wonderful Christmas!!!!

Rudolph Musical

2008-12-16T20:57:00.002-06:00

On Tuesday Brenton's class went to Fort Worth to see Rudolph the musical. It was really good. Brenton was so excited he clapped and sang and danced the whole time. After the musical they had lunch. This is Brenton's best friend Justin. I'm so glad that they got to go. This was a really good field trip.

Santa and Mrs. Clause

2008-12-16T20:48:00.002-06:00

On the 13th we had a get together with the Moms of Multiples group. Santa and Mrs. Clause were there. Avery and Brily were not going to have any part of Santa at all, so Robin had to get in the picture. Maybe next year they wont mind. Santa and Mrs. Clause had a very involved conversation with Amberly and Brenton. There was also a breakfast, games, and crafts. It was a lot of fun. I am really glad that I joined this group.

A Christmas celebration

2008-12-16T20:38:00.002-06:00

Robert, Susan, Blake, and Barrett came to our house on the 6th for our community Christmas celebration. It was really cold that night too. Robin, Robert, and the girls played the cake walk. I'm am so glad that Robin won after only 3 tries. Last time he played 6 rounds, and still walked away with nothing. It was a really good cake that we all took back to the house and enjoyed later on in the evening. The babies stayed all bundled up that night.

Amberly, Brenton, and Blake had a blast dancing. It was a great night with cake, hot chocolate, dancing, games, and family.

Singing at Six Flags

2008-12-16T20:28:00.002-06:00

On the 5th Amberly's choir class was singing at Six Flags. It was so cold that night. I would recommend to go in December if you want to go though, because there were no lines. We had yummy hot chocolate. It was so rich and creamy, not the watered down kind.

Robin, Amberly, and her friends sledded down the snow hill.

Here is Amberly and a couple of her friends with Frosty the Snowman.

We all had a cold but great time. The kids all performed really well.

Oh Christmas Tree ....

2008-12-16T20:13:00.002-06:00

We went to get our Christmas tree on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. We went to Flowermound to a really pretty farm to get it. It was however our most expensive tree ever purchased at $80. Sorry, but all of the pictures are backwards. We had to get a gate to go around it to keep the girls out.

The kids posing in their new Christmas pajamas.

It was soooo cold! The kids wanted to sit in these buckets for the tractor train ride.

Here are all of them in front of the tree that we all picked out.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!

2008-11-27T09:32:00.002-06:00

I asked everyone in our house this morning what were some things that they were thankful for, and here is the list.....

Robin- Family
Brenton- mama , everything, God, & Jesus
Amberly- shelter, food, & freedom
the girls- I think this morning was their cups of milk
me- family, health, god, and being able to share this with everyone!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!!

Brenton's Birthday

2008-11-23T21:24:00.002-06:00

My oh my, how busy I have been. Do you ever have weeks like that where you don't have a minute to yourself? Well it sure has felt like that lately. Wednesday was Brenton's birthday, and I made 2 dozen cupcakes to take to his school. I got this idea for the cupcakes from another blog. Well I took the cupcakes to Brenton's school for his his party, but sorry there are no pictures. After the party was all over I realized that my memory card had been full, and I had not got one picture. Here is a picture of the six leftover cupcakes. After dinner Brenton went on a scavenger hunt for his presents. It started in the living room under a chair cushion.

It led to under the pool table,

On the steering wheel in the car,

On the jug of milk, and a few other places around the house, then ended by the fire place.

He got a leapster 2 hand held video game system and some games to go with it. He also got some gift cards and an outfit.

Aunt Amber sent him this robot, but I think the girls were way more interested in what it was.

He made a wish, blew out the candles, and we had the last six cupcakes. Happy 6TH Birthday Brenton!!!!!

Let's Party!!!!

2008-11-19T22:30:00.005-06:00

We took Brenton and a couple of his friends to Gatti Town to celebrate his birthday on Saturday. They played air hockey, and it took a couple of dads to figure out the race car game.

Brenton was a natural at dancing. Cool as usual during a roller coaster ride.

They all absolutely loved the bumper cars! Brenton's friend really likes Star Wars, and they found the game.

Brenton got some really great gifts, and enjoyed a motor cycle ride. He had a great night with his friends!

These boots are made for walking.....

2008-11-02T15:12:00.004-06:00

Brily and Avery are going through a phase right now where they want to have shoes on all the time. Well, when Brily saw her brother's boots she just couldn't resist!

Happy Halloween

2008-11-01T11:12:00.003-05:00

We decided to stay around the house last night and take the kids trick-or-treating. We went off with Cruella DeVille, a couple of Dalmatians, and a ninja. The girls were not real happy with their puppy ears. The ears were touching their faces.

We only went to maybe 20 houses just around our block, and this was all the candy we came home with! I think that Robin is going to have to take quite a bit to work with him.

After we got home Amberly had to shower to wash all the color out of her hair. This morning when we woke up, and her hair was dry this is what we had to deal with. For those of you who don't know, Amberly is extremely tender headed. This is going to be fun! What a wild night!!!!

2 week catch up

2008-10-30T20:26:00.001-05:00

I've been really busy the last couple of weeks, so below are four postings of the last couple of weeks.

A new room

2008-10-30T20:20:00.002-05:00

Brenton and the girls switched bedrooms, so I wanted to paint it for them first. I wanted it to look like a child drew it. I love how it turned out. The girls love it too. They just point at things and laugh.

Cupcake fever!

2008-10-30T20:16:00.002-05:00

We have gone cupcake crazy in this house! I made for dinner the other night meatloaf cupcakes with mashed potato frosting. They were so yummy. We had leftover frosting from the fall festival cupcakes so I baked some more, and let the kids decorate them. They had a blast.

School cupcakes

2008-10-30T20:12:00.002-05:00

I was asked to make some cupcakes for Amberly and Brenton schools fall festival. I made pumpkins and spiders. I'm really proud of myself, I worked hard on these.

One Busy Saturday!

2008-10-30T20:06:00.002-05:00

Ok, everything is backwards so bare with me. A couple of Saturdays ago we had a really eventful day. It started with haircuts for the boys, then McKinney Tades Day, a birthday party, then we topped it off with our community fall festival. We all had a great time, and got great sleep that night!

Toothless

2008-10-16T20:01:00.002-05:00

I don't know what is going on, but this week we are definitely keeping the tooth fairy in business. Amberly lost a tooth a few days ago, and Brenton lost a tooth today. Brenton told his teacher that he couldn't eat hard food today, and she took him to the nurses office. He told me that they were trying to pull his tooth out with tweezers. I guess that their hard work paid off, because at dinner it came out.

Pumpkins and Shots

2008-10-16T19:51:00.003-05:00

Since we have too many pumpkins to carve we have decided that this year we were going to paint them instead. This was how they turned out. We have from left to right a vampire, a jack-o-lantern, a vampire witch, and a spider. The girls had their 15 month check up. They each got two shots, and were not very happy about it. The doctor said that they are doing and growing great.

The Big Orange Pumpkin Patch

2008-10-12T22:41:00.002-05:00

We took a trip to the pumpkin patch in Celina yesterday. This was the first time that we have been to a pumpkin patch, and the kids loved it. When you get there they give you a cup of feed for all of the farm animals. The girls liked the goats, but they did not like the cows. The cows slobber was flying through the air, and getting all over Brily.
Brenton was so excited about climbing on the giant spider, but then got scared and would only go on the legs.
Avery and Brily tried to pick up every pumpkin that they saw.
We could only get Brily to stay when we put her on the pumpkin, she wanted to run everywhere. If your wondering why the hair bow for Amberly, she saw me making the girls Halloween hair bows, and decided that she needed one too. We made a headband for her, but it didn't last long. We all had a really great time. I think that we have a new family fall tradition.

State Fair of Texas

2008-10-10T19:16:00.005-05:00

On Thursday we took the kids to the fair. We all had a blast as always! We went through Little Hands On the Farm. The kids really enjoy this, but sadly this was Amberly's last year to get to participate.

The girls got a kick out of the baby Bordon cow. It was licking their toes. One of our family favorites is always World on a String! Brenton was so excited about the puppets.
The kids didn't have much to say about the Midway Barker, they just stared at him.
The gardens were full of butterflies this year. It was so nice to just relax and walk through the gardens. Amberly and I have decided that we are going to make our own secret garden.
Big Tex is sporting some new duds. The trains were around him this year, which Brenton loved!

Brenton absolutely loves tractors! Well, he loves anything with wheels.
Every year there is a big pig. This year there was this one, he weighs over 1200 pounds!
We couldn't have a visit to the fair without seeing all of the cars!
A quick pose out side of the bird show. We all had a great time, can't wait till next year!

Look who's walking too!

2008-10-10T19:08:00.002-05:00

Finally, Avery has decided to start walking. She surly does take her own sweet time. Congratulations Monkey!

Shiver me Timbers!!

2008-09-22T20:36:00.002-05:00

It was pirate day at school so the kids got all dressed up. I had Brenton's Captain Hook costume still, and we added a bandanna to make him a pirate. Amberly decided that morning that she wanted to be a pirate also. We had to southern engineer one for her, but I think that it worked out. They had a blast at school, and had to talk like pirates all day. Arrrgg, Matees!!!

Things we do

2008-09-17T21:03:00.002-05:00

This is a few things that the girls like to do during the day while Amberly and Brenton are at school. The girls love to ride on their scooters.They also love to play in the empty laundry basket.
More scooter play after lunch.
They love to help with laundry and watch the clothes spin. I have to watch them though because the other day they were helping me put clothes in the laundry, and when the clothes were done I was putting them in the dryer, and I pulled hangers out of the washer.
Every day is different, but these are a few things that haven't changed. I'm glad that they have each other and play so well together. Well, most of the time. Ha!Ha!Ha!

Evening with the McIntire's

2008-09-13T11:30:00.003-05:00

On Thursday we went to Robert and Susan's house for dinner. It is always nice to get to see them, and catch up on things. The kids all had a good time. Avery and Brily loved playing with all of Barrett's toys while he sat and watched them.
They also enjoyed some of Blake's toys.
After a quick clean up of Blake's toys I snapped a quick pic of Brenton and Blake. Blake had to pose and lean over in Brenton's lap. Too Cute!!!!

Thanks for having us over guys, we had a great time!

Way to go!

2008-09-10T08:56:00.002-05:00

This year at school the 4th and 5th graders have to pick an extra curricular activity to do. Amberly picked choir. She had to audition along with several other students. Only 15 students out of the whole 4th grade made it, and she was one of them. Congratulations Amberly, we are so proud of you!

I spoke to soon

2008-09-08T15:26:00.002-05:00

Well, I just said how Avery hardly ever falls asleep in the car, and yesterday she did. We were on our way home from church, and she fell asleep with a cracker in her mouth. It did not fall out the whole way. I had to take it out of her mouth when we got home. It was so funny!

Sleepy kids

2008-09-05T11:02:00.003-05:00

For some reason the other day three of my kids were all very sleepy. Avery hardly ever falls asleep even in the car. Amberly and Brenton had been playing in her bedroom after dinner, and I went in at about 7:30 to get them ready for bed, and they were both already asleep on Amberly's bed. They must of had an exhausting day at school. I was feeding Brily and Avery lunch, and Brily just passed out. I really don't know why she was so sleepy, maybe she didn't get her morning nap out. It was so funny. I caught a little clip of her head tossing before my camera went dead.

First Day of school!

2008-08-26T22:14:00.003-05:00

Today was the first day of school. This morning went very smoothly. We were all prepared the night before, so as soon as Robin got home from work this morning we were off. This is Amberly and Brenton in front of the school this morning. They were really not in the mood for pictures. Brenton wanted to get to class, and I think that Amberly is just tired of getting her picture taken all the time. Here is Brenton and his new teacher Mrs. Bennett.
Amberly is growing up so fast. We found out that she will be rotating between 3 teachers this year. This is her homeroom, science, and writing teacher. His name is Mr. Stowers.
This is going to be a very exciting year, I can't wait to see what all it has in store. Real quick, this evening Brenton says to me " Mama, my stomach hurts, I think that we have to cancel school." Kids make life so much fun. I can't imagine life without them.

Back to school haircuts

2008-08-25T14:46:00.002-05:00

Yesterday we took the kids to Snip-its to get their haircut for school. Brenton played a game while he got his hair cut.
Amberly decided that she wanted a big girl hair cut that was shorter in the back than in the front.
Brenton wanted flip up bangs. You can barely see them in this picture.
Amberly's hair turned out really cute. The back is really short and tapered. The front is still long.
We are ready for school!!!

A Sweet Reunion, Sad Goodbye, & Visit to the E.R.

2008-08-23T09:06:00.006-05:00

Dad and Susan came for a short visit last weekend, then we all traveled to Mountain Home, Arkansas together. While they were here we went to the Rainforest Cafe, and to IKEA. Dad was trying to teach Brenton to play pool.
Brily decided that she wanted to play also. We left to head to Arkansas, but not before the ritual stop to Cracker Barrel.
A few nights after we were in Arkansas we all gathered to have dinner together at Fred's Fish House.
This was the view from the deck of the restaurant.
My Aunts friends had a dinner for us all at their house on the lake. This is a picture of all of the family.

This was Avery and Brily on the deck behind their house. It was a really pretty view.

Amberly and Brenton got to meet a new cousin. This is Drake.
I thought this was so cute, so I had to take a picture. This is my Aunts post office.
Now for the sweet and sad. I got to see Nannie again , and I'm pretty sure that she knew who I was. She smiled at me, and she laughed. She lit up when she saw Amberly, Brenton and the girls. But for the sad , this would probably be our last visit. It was very hard for all of us to say goodbye. I love Nannie very much.

We had to head back home, and on the way we made a few stops. This was a dam outside of Eureka Springs.

This was a huge walking stick next to Robin's foot.
Here is a view from a lookout.
This is for Dad. We came across this monster moth at a rest stop. It was about 1/2 a foot wide.
One last stop on the way home. Avery had been getting a little sick, so we called her doctor to explain what was going on, and they told us to take her to get checked out. We took her to a local E.R., and she had to get an i.v.. They had to wrap her in a sheet to get the i.v. in. It was so sad and emotional. She is doing ok now, we are just monitoring her till Monday, if she isn't better, or if she isn't taking fluids we have to take her in to her doctor.
We had a wonderful time. A happy reunion, a sad goodbye, and a trip to the emergency room. Very eventful, a trip we will never forget.

Gross but Funny

2008-08-14T19:48:00.003-05:00

Ok so we were all watching "Nim's Island" tonight. Robin is laying in the floor with the girls. They only have diapers on because they had just eaten. Avery then crawls over Robin, and he notices that she doesn't have on a diaper on, and that something is all over her hands. He sits up and that when we saw it. She took off her diaper and pooped in the floor. He started screaming "I got the poo on me", and rushed her off to the shower. A ll I could do was laugh. Needless to say she got all cleaned up, and so did the floor. So what we learned is onesie or shorts need to go back on immediately after she eats. What a funny and gross night we have had.

My little girl is 10!!!!

2008-08-14T09:02:00.003-05:00

Yesterday was Amberly's Birthday. We started out the big day this morning with Mickey Mouse pancakes and bacon. I t was yummy. Then we decided to have a few presents.
That afternoon we went to Gattitown. It was a lot of fun. Of course being the great blogger that I am, I forgot my camera so I had to use my camera phone. So I apologize for any of the pictures being fuzzy.

Amberly and Brenton played air hockey. The final score was 7/2.
Amberly and Robin did this horse racing game, and it was hilarious. Robin was wore out when it was over.
Amberly and Robin got their groove on. Brenton was doing it, but he got bored fast, so Robin had to take over.
Amberly and Robin played this game with the funny helmet. It was really funny to watch them play. In the helmet you have to do a 360 to see everything.

Robin, Amberly, and Brenton played a trucker game. We determined that Brenton isn't a very good driver.
Amberly and Brenton took turns bowling.
After we left Gattitown we headed over to Justice so Amberly could spend her gift card from Daddypa and Grandmommy.
When we got home Amberly made a wish, blew out her candle, and we had cupcakes.

We all had a wonderful day. Happy Birthday baby girl, I can't believe that your growing up so fast. Your in the big league now, the DOUBLE DIGITS!!!!!! Happy 10th Birthday, We Love You!!!

visit with mom

2008-08-10T09:46:00.005-05:00

We went to mom's house for a visit this weekend. Brily loved playing in the cats play house.
Since Amberly's birthday is wednesday we decided to have cake and a couple of presents while we were there.
Amberly got a nintendo DS for her birthday. She was so excited!!!
She also got a purse for her DS and some new games. We had alot of fun. Love you Mom!!

Brily Is Walking!!!!

2008-07-25T14:15:00.002-05:00

Brily is officially a big girl now. She has started walking!!!

Congratulations Brily!

The BIG Day!

2008-07-18T19:42:00.003-05:00

Well, I knew it would happen some day, but I didn't think that it would be this soon. "What?", you ask am I talking about? What I'm talking about is a whole new decade. So I say, "Let the aging process begin." Ladies and Gentleman, I am now 30 YEARS OLD!!!!!! That's right no longer in my 20's. Now I guess that I really am a "MAM". Ugh.This morning my sister, and her whole office called me to sing Happy Birthday. I was really nice, except when instead of saying "happy birthday shannon", what I got was " happy birthday baby maker". I guess it might be a little true. Ha Ha!!! These flowers were waiting for me when I got home today. Thankyou amber, they are beautiful!
This is the card that was with my flowers, and it reads .....
"Happy birthday sister!! Hope these bright flowers make you feel young for the day. Sorry you're so old.

Love,
The Young One"

I guess I better get busy now working on my dancing skills. Afterall 30 is the oldest that they will take you on So You Think You Can Dance. For now, Adios!

2008-07-13T14:40:00.014-05:00

Yesterday we celebrated the girls 1st birthday with a party. We had lots of friends and family over for a delicious dinner prepared by my mom. Thankyou very much mom! Some of ou friends & family! Akira, Blake, Barrett, & Luke

The girls loved all of their presents.

Here are me and my birthday girls.

The Girls loved playing!

This cake took me a long time to make, but I
would do it all again. It was very much worth all
the effort.

The girls really liked their 1st birthday cake!

Thankyou to everyone who came to join in on this very special day with us. Thankyou you for all of your gifts. We and the girls enjoyed having all of you over!

Last day of Vacation

2008-07-13T14:30:00.002-05:00

High School Musical was at fairpark on the 4th, so we took the kids.
It was really wonderfull. They also made a comedy out of it, which was great also. The kids loved it. They sang along, and danced.
We watched fireworks that night at fairpark also. Here we are all waiting.

Here are some of the fireworks.

Day 6 Houston Children's Museum

2008-07-13T14:15:00.002-05:00

Today was so much fun, this was the best children's museum that we ever have gone to.
Amberly and Brenton loved playing school.
They also got to do a little grocery shopping. They had lists to shop with, and I gave one to Brenton, and he did really well. He really liked that part.
Robin played a little more than the kids did. In almost every picture I took, he was in it too playing.
There was a toddler play area for the girls too. They really enjoyed getting out of thier stroller and crawling around. We really liked Houston alot, except the crazy drivers. We got cut off on the highway about 15 times.

Space Center Houston day5

2008-07-09T22:08:00.002-05:00

The space center was awesome! We didn't have enough time to do every thing, so we will have to go back. We bought annual passes while we were there.
Amberly and Brenton had so much fun!
They had fake space men every where, so you could see what it is like for them in outerspace.
Bugs Bunny and the gang wher there too. Brenton got a hug fron Scooby Doo.
Robin got on stage and danced for the kids. It was soooo funny! We all had a blast. I can't wait to go back.

Day four Driving and the Aquarium

2008-07-09T21:56:00.003-05:00

We drove alot today. The kids were really good, so were the girls.
I love this picture!
This fish was as big as Brenton!
This fish was cool, I think it is poisonous too.
All of us at the end of the aquarium.

Day 3 part 2

2008-07-09T11:09:00.003-05:00

We decided to go on a hike, and visit the animals on the farm. This is Otis.
Brenton really loved the goats.
Then we made smores! Brenton liked toasting the marshmallows most of all.
Amberly just hung out in the hammock eating her smores.
Brily was passed out , and I think Avery was getting delirious.

Day 3 Safari!!!!! part 1

2008-07-09T10:49:00.003-05:00

We went on a safari today, and the animals were very friendly. Some were a little scary, with thier big antlers.
I was screaming when the zebra stuck it's head in my window. I had Brily on my lap, and there were signs posted everywhere that read the zebras do bite.
I think that the girraffes were everyone's favorite part, they were so friendly, one even licked Avery on the hand.
When we got back from our safari we decided to go swimming in the river.
Robin and the kids found an underwater spring, and Robin said that you could drink from it, so I dared him too, and he did.

Day 2 summer vacation

2008-07-09T10:40:00.002-05:00

Day 2 was wild, we started out battling crawfish.
Then we got chased by dinosaurs.
We almost lost Brenton, but was able to pull him out.
We finally made it to where we were staying.
We all then passed out.

Summer vacation Day 1

2008-07-09T10:23:00.002-05:00

We started out our vacation with some iceskating, which didnt last very long. Amberly had a bum toe, and Robin had a hurt ankle.
Next we had our community parade. Here are the girls waiting.
Amberly and Brenton rode with some of our neighbors in the parade. They won best car.
So we went to wait for the awards, and it started to rain. This turned into everone huddled under the basketball pavillion while it hailed, poured rain, and lighting.
The night ended well with fireworks.

Camp Rock Premiere

2008-07-09T10:10:00.004-05:00

The kids and I got ready for the premiere of Camp Rock tonight.Brily brushed Avery's hair.

Avery decided that she didn't like it.

Amberly is my little rock star. It was a good movie, we had alot of fun!

The Taranchula

2008-07-09T09:54:00.007-05:00

The kids were all playing in the girls room, being good. Brenton then comes running to get Robin

shouting "Daddy, Daddy, there's a tarantchula in the baby's room!" So we went in the room, and
this was the spider.

Our wonderful life....

2008-06-04T15:52:00.002-05:00

Well, here are more things I'm late on, but I want them to be in my blogger book, so her they are.
Brily was eating, and this snack was hanging from her nose, and when she would take a breath it would flap. It was so funny.

This was my surprise candle light Mothers Day dinner. It was so sweet, they got me flowers to put on the table too.

Avery and Brily love the bathtub so much, even when someone else is in it.

Avery is always so relaxed, and here she is with her daddy.

Avery and Brily were giving each other kisses, and touching each others faces. They are so sweet to each other sometimes.

Ok people, yes I said "the last two weeks." I know I'm a horrible blogger. Well, here goes the run down.......
We went to Robert and Susans on May 30th to celebrate Rickys birthday.

Barrett enjoyed his bottle.

Brenton and Blake enjoyed watching some t.v.

Avery and Brily enjoyed thier bottles, too.

Avery slept on her belly for the first time, and she woke up like this.

We also went to Robert and Susan's on Memorial Day.
Barrett, Avery, and Brily, played on the floor.

On Saturday we took the kids, picked up my Uncle Terry, and met my mom and stepdad at the Renaissance Festival. Everyone had a blast. If you like to people watch, you would love it. We saw a pyrojuggler that was awesome. I would reccomend it to anyone.
