Dora at the Fox

My best friends sister, Carrie, is always lookin at cheap tickets for kids stuff. She found this amazing deal for Dora and the Lost Toys! Tickets were priced at 150 for the bottom and 80 for the top seat! outragous! She gave me the coupon codes and i got bottom row tickets priced at $15 each!!!!!! per person!!!!! talk about an amazing deal! Gavin loves dora and digeo so i thought it would be sooo much fun to take him for a gavin, mommy, and daddy day out! I feel bad since i dont get to spend as much time with him as i did before aiden came. We try to do little things like this every once in awhile to spend time with him and just him! We had a blast and it was so much fun. Gavin loved seeing dora and diego. He got to get a diego backpack and a t-shirt. We was singing and dancing to all the songs. It was def a well put on play and it totally followed the show series! I highly recommend it when it comes back to atlanta! Hopefully our next one will be Disney on Ice! im sooo excited!

Day at the Circus

We have been planing to go to the Shrine Circus in Marietta for weeks now and our plans changed when wednesday night i fell and sprained my ankle. i was so mad and we werent going to go but by saturday i felt a little better so we decided to try and go. the plan was for me to stay at mamma dawn's house with her and aiden while steven and gavin and others went...i really really wanted to go and when we got there steven made up his mind that i was gonna go. His grandma has a wheel-chair so i said that would be fine. i felt like an old lady but hey i didnt have to walk it was great. it was a blast!!! the show was awesome...and theres not a pic of it but there also was the man that got shot out of the canon! the rides we awesome. i cant wait until next year when i can ride them! they had quite a few too. i highly recommend it to older kids! enjoy the pics.

Our New Addition...

So im finally posting about the new addition to our family. We have been without a vehicle for about 2 1/2 months now and its driving us crazy! After receiving our tax return we decide to go and look at cars. We originally were going to look at trucks and i thought about it for a week or 2 and decided no i want a family car NOW! Steven was a little upset because he had wanted a truck for like well forever!....but when we got there the only thing we could afford were some little cars. we looked around while the guy was inside and came across this van. Now steven only likes dodge or Chrysler and there were only a few. Finally the guy came out and gave us another list (upped the price). Now i have no idea how to drive a manual...and there was a super nice car that steven loved but it was manual. of course that was out of the ?. so again we asked the guy to get another list, raising the price, while we looked around again. again steven came back to that same van. the guy came out and we asked if the van was on the list and he said yes. lets look inside. Steven loved it!! So of course we decided to get it. we were soooo excited! i really wanted a van. i hated to be one of those mom's but it has SOOO much room. and since we want like 4 more kids,....soon....its def a good investment! so heres a couple pics of it. sorry they are so dark!

Gavin's Birthday!

I know its late but its been a crazy week! Happy birthday gavin! 3 years ago u were in my stomach kicking and boxing. Im so glad u came into this world and im glad that ur my little boy! Friday we celebrated gavin's birthday opening his presents with jaime, kristina, and family. We were going to wait to open his presents because Steven was working but he wanted to open them really bad. he got lots of clothes and "clipo-clipo-clipo". He loves those crazy things. Then Saturday we had a BIG party. All his good friends were invited and family too. He got lots of great things! Again thank you everyone for coming! After that we went to chuckie-cheese with his cousins micheal and nathan, he loves that place now. Steven and Nick got 1163 tickets so gavin picked out a bear for Adien and a stuffed chuckie for himself. we had fun but not as much fun as we wouldve hoped! never go on a weekend, always a weekday. I will try and get pictures from my mom and post them!

RIP ETO!

We love u dearly and will miss you greatly! you were the best cat. No matter how much mackenzie or gavin messed with u, u were so patient with them. You were loved by all. Its a sad thing when someone or a pet dies. But at least we know Eto isnt suffering anymore. I know Eto is up in cat heaven eating all the ham and cat food in the world. God has a special place up there for Eto! If gavin really understood what had happen he would be devastated.

I was sitting at home playing with aiden & gavin, in walks mackenzie. She just stood there and so i looked at her and said hey. She came in and said, looking at the floor, "Eto died". i have never seen her so sad. all i could really do was give her a hug. i knew grandma would be upset too so we all went up there to comfort, play with her. i thought the boys might cheer her up. now we will just have to get a dog :)

its about time!

Ok so its been a long time since Ive been able to get on here. My computer is still messed up and by the time I log in to write anything it shuts down on me. This year we are starting fresh and new. Steven and I have made a lot of resolutions and plan on completing them.

1. Get a working car!
2. Get a house
3. Pay all our probations off
4. Pay at least half of our debt off
5. Get Gavin POTTY TRAINED!
6. Go on vacation
7. Pay everyone we owe back

We are trying really hard to do our best to give our kids everything they want and need.

Also im putting up some pics from christmas. Gavin has never liked santa. He loves him when he's on tv or when he see a pic of him but when we try to get him to sit in his lap he screams! Its kinda funny. This year my uncle dressed up like santa and for the first time ever he actually sat in his lap and kinda smiled so it was a kodak moment. aiden loved it and of course didnt think anything of it and hopefully wont grow up to be like his brother.








Here is also a pic of all three of the kids. We met up with Kara and Andrew one saturday at Stone Mountain and she took lots of pics of them together. Kara is a photographer now and i highly recomend her. Shes great with kids and makes them feel comfortable so she can take pics. Madeleine is getting so big and so cute. Gavin loved playing with her and now he talks about her all the time. Everytime we get in the car he says "We're going to see maddy. yep. yea". its cute. and then he says "i love maddy". too cute! We went to stone mountain and took pics, played in the park there, and then went to chick-fil-a to eat. we had fun. im so glad that i chose a family who is so willing to let us see her. I have no regrets!






Im not sure how long it will be before i get to write another blog but ill def try to keep up.
