Well I figured for my first post I should tell you about me and my family.
Currently, I work at Primary Children's Medical Center. I have been married for 9 yrs to my wonderful husband Shän, I have 4 wonderful kids 3 girls and 1 boy. I am addicted to facebook lately thanks to my sisters. I like to do crafts with my kids when I can afford it. I can fix almost anything as long as its not car related.
I meet my Husband while working at a toy store called All Wound UP, it was a fun store to work in cuz you got to played with toys all day. We never really dated we just hung out alot together with my best friend Sarah, about a month and a half after we meet we got engaged. Then married 3 months later. we have moved several times since then and so all my kids were born in different hospitals and different cities (except my first and last were the same city just different hospitals). it seems like we always end up back here in Salt Lake area no matter how much we say we are not going to move back.
This last move though was for a good reason. it was because I got my the job I had always wanted. I felt bad moving because Kaylie and Kendra had friends in Hurricane where I lived last. and here they don't really have any friends.
My husband Shän, works for walmart right now till we can afford to put him through school, so he can get a better job. In his spare time he plays the computer game World of Warcraft. I also play that game. we have been playing World of Warcraft since it first came out. He is a very good Dad and a loving husband. hes always there for me when I need him to be and he's really good with the kids. lately hes been trying to learn new things to cook. he made an apple pie a bit back that was really yummy. He makes brownies all the time for him and the girls to eat for there desert. hes actually a really good cook when he cooks.
Now about my kids.
My daughter Kaylie just turned 7 and is very excited to start 2nd grade. She Loves all animals. She picks out a new animal to be every day, then acts like that animal all day. She wants to be a zoo veterinarian when she grows up. Her favorite channel to watch on tv is Animal Planet, if she had her way she'd watch it 24/7. She also just learned to read and write and she types on the computer to her grandma all the time, so shes getting really good at spelling. she loves to read books, and draw. she getting very good at drawing. she draws me pictures of animals all the time.
Next is Kendra she just turned 5 and is excited to start Kindergarten this year. shes my little mommy, she is always watching out for everyone making sure they are ok. She like to help me with jobs around the house, including feeding Stockton my baby. Kendra was born with something called hemihypertrophy which is one side of the body bigger than the other. which makes buying shoes real fun let me tell ya, one foot is size 13 and the other is 11. I also believe that her mouth being slightly bigger on one side than the other is why she doesn't talk very well yet. but we haven't been able to find anything yet as to why she doesn't talk she just doesn't. luckily thought she doesn't let that bother her.
Then there is Kalista, she just turned 2 and man is she in her terrible twos. she learns everything fast she actually out did both her sisters with learning how do do everything like crawling and walking. but that is also a pain cuz she watched her sister get into something then she goes and does it when no one is watching. shes my little princess she loves to wear jewelry and tiaras. she also insist she has to be the one to get or do anything when someone is asked. and she will scream if any of her sisters do it and not her, even if she wasn't asked to do it. she has recently discovered that she can scream loudly while running around, so my house is now super loud. shes very loving and loves to carry her babies around wrapped in blankets or push them in a stroller. when shes given the choice of a toy at the store she usually goes to the babies.
I'm currently in the process of potty training her (which isn't going to well). shes a little daddy's girl, she really loves her daddy shes always so happy to see him.
Last but not least is my little boy Stockton, he is 4 months old. He's the cutest boy every (in my opinion). he only cries sometimes when hes getting tired, he tries to fight sleep but doesn't usually win. he loves his sisters and just smiles so big when they play with him. he smiles alot and coos alot which I just love. I call him my Little Man, and we all just love him tons. hes just learning to roll over, which is cute to watch cuz he can get almost over. he gets stuck on his shoulder but the rest of him gets rolled over.
well that's it for my family. Hopefully I will be able to remember to blog when anything fun happens.
So yesterday my kids, Sarah and I all went to Draper Days. It was really fun, but really hot as well. we walked around and saw alot of the different booths they had,
it seemed like they all sold about the same things. which was cute hair bows and accersories like that. we went to the booth that one of the ladies I work with had set up and I bought my girls all a cute braclet and 2 bows for their hair, since they all had pony tails and it looked cute with 2 bows. then we got there faces painted for free.
It was also nice to do all that cuz it wore the girls out pretty good and they all went to bed easily.
