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.' "

Long time...

So sorry it has been so long. Here are some of the things my little babies have been up to...

Brezlyn had her first Birthday on Jan. 12!!! Can't believe that she is this big already!!! She loved the cake...LOL she dug in and eat so much of it and looked crazy with icing all over her face. She had a Bee party and my mom found a bee small cake and that was just for her. She then had a quick bath in moms sink and loved that even more. Now every time we run water in the sink she wants in to take a bath. LOL A few days latter on the 18 or so she started walking!!! OMG finally have one walk before 13 months. She loves it she still crawls more but is walking so good..I am one proud Mommy. I did get a little sad that she would not walk to me she took her first steps to Paisley. Paisley loved it and it was really cute to watch but I missed the sweet baby walking to me. Oh well she is walking and that is all that really matters. So Brezlyn is talking so well she amazes me every day and how smart she is blows me away. Love hearing her laugh and playing with big bro and sis. She fallows Paisley around all the time and I love this sister thing it is really sweet. (Cute story) Miss Bee has really learned to stick up for her self... On her b-day party Keyton was trying to take a toy from her. He was really pulling and she was getting really upset. He did get it from her and as he tried to run off she grabbed his pant leg and he went down. All I could do is laugh so hard. She crawled away like nothing happened. LOL she will be one tough girl.

Keyton is pretty much potty trained with some back wards movement but we are all but there. I am so happy that he is. He is happy and excited! He is the sweetest big brother and loves to feed his baby sis. He does not like to see her upset and is going to protect her so much and that warms my heart. He is so sweet and is learning his numbers and NOW he knows how to spell his name....All u do is say hey Keyton how do u spell keyton...He says...K-E-Y-T-O-N. I am so happy that he can do this at 2 almost 3. He is growing so much and is still just as big as his big sis. Good news his teeth are all great and never abscessed!!! SO excited about that. He does go back in this week just to make sure but for now it is looking like a perfect recovery. He had his first hand burger this last month, his first biscuit and grilled cheese. LOL poor guy but he loved them so much and was so excited and confused. With the hand burger he asked me how he eats it and then was so excited to be just like everyone else. He made up a fairy tale "Once upon a time Paisley was a tooter princess and she lived in a tooter castle." I was laughing so hard. Then Paisley added " it was on a tooter mountain where everyone toots all the time." Oh what they come up with

Paisley is getting big and so smart it is crazy. She can have adult conversations with me and Tryon to where u would never guess how old she is. She is really taking to learning sign language and Spanish. It is amazing...we told her the name of one of the workers at Rosa's new baby ( Azul) and she said they named her blue. I was so proud, she also wants to learn all the time ans ask question about everything and anything. She is also teaching Keyton every day when she gets home. She now carries Brezlyn around the house (it scares me) and they both love it. She helps out so much and loves helping bee get around the house. She will push her on the car or help her get on the jumping zebra. I love to watch them play and how sweet she is to her baby sis. I am enjoying it because I know it will not last long before Paisley does not want anything to do with her.

Loving my family and the adventures we are taking.

Heavy Heart

For those of you who still read this I am asking for some prayers. During this time of joy and holiday season my family has been hit hard. My cousins youngest girl Andi has been under going a lot of test lately because she has been extremely sick a lot this year. They are pretty sure (90%) that she has aggressive acute leukemia. She is going to Lubbock next week to run more test and see what they can do for her and start the proses of fighting. My cousin is having a really hard time with this because one its her baby, and two this girl was born on time (unlike the other two who were really preemie) and has not had the problems the older two have had. She is having a hard time seeing the why like we all do during these types of time. My heart is breaking for her and her family right now and I do not wish this on anyone. I know God can heal all and I know that this is a disorder that can be beaten. I am just asking for all the help of praying over this little girl as she goes through things that no one should have to go through. Thank you for your prayers and time...I will update when I can and know.

My little Bee is a big girl

Brezlyn in the past few weeks has went from a little baby to a big independent girl. She not only is a crawler but now she is pulling up on everything!!! Just yesterday I walked into her room to get her out of bed and she was standing up looking at me! Wow still can't believe how that can still amaze you and knock you off your feet!! She now has 6 teeth and is fallowing me around the house as I do things. She is a little ornery but in a funny way! She is still a joy and a blessing to my life and honestly say our family is so blessed to have her in our lives.

Off the title topic..... My other cuz. just found out she is having a girl...we told Keyton and he started shaking his head saying " No NO NO no more girls!" Poor guy we really need another boy in the family! HAHAHA He is big and doing great, learning from Paisley and impressing me all the time now if only he would potty train we would be great!

Paisley has started school here in Amarillo and loves it...I am really happy with it also...She is learning Sign language, Spanish and handwriting!!! This last week she came home and showed me the sign for friends, said Amigo (friend), Azule (blue), Verde (green), Rojo (red) and Amarillo (yellow) I am so impressed and she is so happy to have a challenge in school unlike last year! She is also so excited to be taking a field trip to the fair on Thurs. because she gets to ride the bus!! I am so happy the transition for her was easy and a good thing!

The kids

Well we have a CRAWLER!!! Brezlyn started crawling 4 days ago and she is finally getting to where she is really going all over the place. I am so happy and she gets so excited about it. She also has a new word...Bye. Love every time they learn a new word. She is growing up to fast. She has 4 teeth and 2 more coming in, she loves bath time and playing with her big bro and sis, she loves animals and loves to be with the family all the time. She seems to be a mama's girl most the time. She is still a happy girl for the most part and is already giving looks that make you die laughing. She is the little light in the family.
Paisley is getting big she finally had a little growth spurt and the kids don't look so much like twins any more. She is so smart every day she through me for a loop. The sweetest thing she said the other day is she told me when she grows up that she wants to be a mom like me and have kids...then she said I think I want 5 just like you mommy! So sweet and so funny to hear from a 3 year old. Lately she has been all about her birthday! She is so excited and wants a princess dress up party. She wants to be Belle and even wants the boys to come as princes! It is going to be a great and cute party! She is so excited and can't wait! She amazed me the other day while we where pricing fabric for her party dress...every sign she told me that Mommy those are 4 dollars or what ever they where! Wow she knew it was taking money...so cute too.
Keyton is getting big but the potty is not going...He made me sad and said he did not want to be a big boy and potty in the potty because he would not be my little boy any more. Oh so hit me hard so I let him know even potting in the potty he will always be my little boy. He is still just as sweet as ever and is starting to want to make people laugh. Still tender hearted and has a hard time with being the only boy sometimes. He loves to follow Paisley around but is starting to want to make some of the decisions too. He cracks me up because for Paisley's party he wants to be a frog princes so I was thinking the princes in the end of frog princes...No he wants to be a frog!!! SO cute and paisley was fine with that.
Loving watching them grow and the fun little things like finding acorns in the yard or reading story after story to them. I love how excited they get over the little things, wish we would not forget how to be like that!!! I love the kisses and hugs and I love yous. They are good kids and I am bless every day by the little things we or they do!

The WIGGLES!!!!

Today we went to see the Wiggles live!!! The kids had such a great time and again (just like last year) cant wait to go back and see them. They loved seeing all the fun things the Wiggles did today...Even little Brezlyn started kicking and jumping to them she even kept herself awake to watch them the whole time. We got there and Paisley and I went to the bathroom to make sure we did not have to leave the show. Well there was music playing and she broke down think the show had started. Got that settled and she was good. We sat down (3 rolls back) and got ready for the show. The kids were so excited and could not wait for it to start. Poor Daddy was sick but he made it through the show with no interruptions. Keyton was a little tired and seemed like he was a little down today but he did good and loved everything. They started with a fav. and the kids were ready to watch. My kids don't get up and dance they sit back and watch...funny but with the money we spend I would rather they watch and take it all in than miss it all by being silly. Paisley was too funny when her fav. Wiggle hit the stage (Murray the red one) she got this big smile on her face and was too happy to see him. Keyton loved it when his fav. hit the stage too (Sam the yellow one) but got more excited later when Wags the dog came out. He was mad for a little while and I found out later it was because he gave his bone for wags to the dancer when it was time but we had not even seen Wags yet and he was mad that Wags had not gotten it....He was fine latter though. We all had a great time!!!

Keytons fav. parts.....
When anyone fell down..Anthony trying to get the hot poppen popcorn, and as a spider.
When Sam got ran over by Captain and Jeff in a big (hamster like) ball....made Sam scream
Wags any time he was out.
When they sang Twinkle Twinkle, Toot Toot, Wave to Wags, Hot Poppen Popcorn,
The Drum line
Captain falling down all the time....When he ran off stage screaming because Anthony said he could give him mouth the mouth if needed...really funny!!
Sam saying Thanks for Keyton's sign...said "Keyton loves singing with Sam"
the big one!!!! When he got to shake Sam's hand!!!

Paisley's fav. parts...
She said all of it but
When Murray read her sign and said He loved it...Sign said " Murray is the King"
Murray walking by her
Shaking hands with Captain and Sam.
Anthony hiding in his blue berry costume and then trying to walk off like that
the Mouth to Mouth thing...makes me say...Oh I know Mouth to Mouth restitution so she can scream like captain
them singing...Toot toot, Shimmy Shake, Wave to Wags, Fruit Salad, Captain feel asleep,
Seeing Murray at anytime...we sat on the side where he keeps his guitars and so he was right in front of us a lot!!!
the gymnastics stuff...they did a lot this year and she loved it.
Jeff falling asleep.

Brezlyn seemed to like it when we got in the car I asked if she got to see the Wiggle and she started moving around crazy and laughing....I think that means she loved it !!! It was really cute.

The big kids got new shirts and Bee got a wags rattle and blanket like cow cow or ellie ellie...all in all a great day!!!! Pics some time soon i hope!!!
