Helping words to get through life

"To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did" When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.
'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.' "

Update and a really cute story

Keyton is doing really good he is trying to crawl and pull up on things! He has 4 teeth and 2 more on the way!!!! He is having a really hard time with the teething but that is just because of how many start at the same time. He is talking really well saying...Mama dada, daddy, Key, get it or did it, baba (bottle), bye bye, hi, yeah!!! He is following in is sister's foot steps. I love watching him play with Paisley all day and he is such and kisser and hugger, I love it.

Paisley is doing good we had her 2nd b-day and it was great! She loved blowing out the candles and getting so many new toys!!! She loved the whole day and is still singing happy b-day to herself! So cute. She is now helping out all the time with everything and really wanting Keyton to play with her. She is starting to copy everything we do and sometimes doing good on the potty. I wish she would just do it.

We are doing great and Tryon's job is going good.

Now for the funny story.....
Paisley is now always talking about Jesus. While driving to our play date.
Paisley: Mommy where is Jesus?
Mom:He is all around us babe
Paisley: I want to talk to Jesus!
Mom: well when we pray thats how we talk to him
Paisley: No I want to talk to him.....(Yells) JESUS JESUS TALK TO ME!! WHERE ARE YOU!
Mom: Paisley Jesus can hear you just talk sweety
Paisley: no i want him to come talk to me!!!! JESUS JESUS JESUS PLEASE JESUS TALK TO ME PLEASE!!!!!

It is really sweet and cute but I don't know how to explain it to her so that she understands! I love it but it happens every Monday in the car.

Well the computer is still not running at the house but when it is there will be only pics on time soon. Miss everyone and hope to see ya'll over Thanksgiving.

The Maze and big changes!

Well, this past weekend we have had some family in from Alabama. It has been so great having everyone here and spending time with them before they had to make the long trip back home. So to send them off in a big way we went to the Corn maze and pumpkin patch just on the edge of town. It was so much fun!!! We shot corn out of this cannon thing, went on a hay ride to pick out pumpkins, Paisley rode the cow train and played on this cool slide and of course went throught the corn maze that was so huge!!! It took about 1 hr to get to the end but we all had a great time. Paisley seemed to love it all and she pick out a pumpkin for her and for Keyton. (just little ones) Keyton feel a sleep during the maze but loved holding the pumpkin and get held by everyone.

Pics of our fun day!!(yes it took most the day but was worth it even with the kids getting a little fussy in the end)

The shirts we made last week!!! They have three tidied pumkins on the front and under it says boo!

Looking at the corn.



Cow train!!!!! She did so good on it and was happy until they went in the corn field and she could not see us any more.....when it came back out she was screaming crying but stayed sitting down until it stoped. She looked so little but so big on it.














Crying at the end poor little girl!!



Hey ride and pumpkins!!!!! A great end to a great day!









After the Maze day I got some of Paisley's crafts out and let her decorate the pumpkins. I put the faces on and let her pick what and where to put everything else. She seems to be very artistic...I put a dab of glue down where she told me and she stuck them on!! I love these pumpkins and think they are too cute. Paisley's is the one with the beads and Keyton's is the one with the yarn. (All her)

Getting started...

Doing it all alone!!! little brads she stuck in!!

Finished!!!

Fun times with Friends and dress up!!

I will start out with all the fun we have had the last week or so. Last Friday was dress like a pirate day at the library. It was so fun to get the kids dressed up and Paisley thought it was so cool to take her feather sword too!! They looked so cute.

My sweet little pirates! Paisley just has yellow capris on with black tights and one of her new winter shirts on and Keyton has a onecie on that has a pirate on it(says mommy's little treasure) and orange shorts and both have the cute bandana on! I was suprised that the both kept it on the whole time.

Her and Mandie

The hats we made, she was doing the Ahoy there, that captin does.

After the library we went to the zoo with some other moms. Paisley feed some of the animals but would not take the pirate outfit off. She had lots of fun and was really brave to feed all the animals.



We went to the park friday with our good friends and the boys had to share a swing it was really cute and they had a great time swinging and talking to eachother.



This Friday we went to a good friends house to make halloween shirts for the kids. It was alot of fun and the kids had a great time playing. The girls dressed up and played hard. This one little boy who was there really like to pick all the girls up (he was the oldest 5years old) but really loved to play and carry Paisley around. Also when Paisley got to tired she sat in Keytons car seat to rest and all the kids brought her a toy of some kind to sit with. It was really cute and sweet. At the end we took a pic of all the kids together on the couch with out little baby Jace.

The girls...Ashlyn Paisley and Mandie....Playing together
Paisley dressed up in a cute blue play dress, pink head thing, but the sun glasses make it work. Looking cute and ready to go!!



Ashlyn and Paisley all dressed up
all three dressed up all the big kids eating lunch...Arron, Brian, Mandie, Ashlyn and Paisley

The whole toy and car-seat thing that was really cute.
All the kids...(left to right) Paisley, Keyton, Sidney, Ashlyn, Arron, Matthew, Mandie and Brian.


We plan on taking all their pics together in the shirts we made sometime soon!!!! I will show them off then.



Now just some new stuff the kids have done. Keyton rolled over to Tryon on Wed. and said Dada to him. We were all so excited. He has also started playing really well, he loves it when he is sitting by me and grabs me when I am not looking. Then I say " are you getting me Key" He laughs so hard and does it all the time now. It is the sweetest thing and is really just our little game. He is standing really well and still rolling everywhere. He is now in the room with Paisley and loving his bed. He sleeps so much better in there and so do we. I do miss him in our room but also so glad to have it back. Paisley is doing great still learning and wanting to learn. She has really started to play "jokes" on people. She loves to call people by a different name, hide and scare you, hide things from people, etc. She also loves to make people laugh at everything and anything. Just last night she had a bunch of my family around and had the whole room cracking up. She really is the life of the group. Also (funny story) just the other day I could not find Keyton's duck that he now has to have to sleep with so he had to cry himself to sleep with out it. I found it later and between some toys and asked Tryon if he had put it there while we were cleaning. He said no and I asked Paisley just to be funny but she told me yes. I asked her why and she told me because she was being funny. Silly girl!!!! I thought it was funny but had to tell her not to take Keyton's specail toy.



In his bed for the first time!!! Playing with his big cow. I am still not done recovering this bumper. Paisley messed up the other one so I found a really thick paded on to made solve the problem.

trying on his Halloween costume!!!! It was too cute but he really looks like Paisley did in it!

Oh the kids both got hair cuts!!! Keyton's first on Thursday morning. He looks so cute but now looks to big. Paisley's was going to be just a trim but she would not sit still and we had to take about 2 to 3 inches off. I was so sad, now it is a short as it was when Keyton was born. She does look cute but I was loving it long.

I will put a good pic up of Paisley's new look soon, but you can some what tell in the halloween shirt making pics.
