Summer






Just a little update on us.
We have been busy busy as usual! Lots of things going on and time passing by so very fast. We are getting used to being a family of 5! I didn't think it would slow me down as much, but in all honesty I believe it does. I used to leave the house in a drop of a hat, now I think twice about if I really need to go somewhere. It just seems like it takes forever to get all 3 kids dressed and around without wearing me out. LOL This summer we have added a small pop up swimming pool and a trampoline to our backyard! the girls are really enjoying them both! they were the girl's bday presents this year. Speaking of birthdays Ashlee just turned 5 on the 21 of June and Anna is turning 3 on the 21 of July. We just had their birthday party last week! This year we did a joint party and it turned out good. It sure was a lot easier and cheaper but I'm not sure Ashlee didn't steal the show. At Anna's age right now she really didn't care and actually doesn't really even realize much about birthdays yet. On Ashlee's actual bday we went out to frontier city with our family and had some birthday cookies and she enjoyed being the spotlight that day. Unfortunately, our church has VBS on Anna's actual birthday. I think we will go to the park and do something fun for her during the day so she will feel extra special on her day! I promised her a Yo Gabba Gabba cake on her actual bday so I will have to come up with something. If anyone of you have watched it, the show is a bit annoying. She wanted her party yo gabba gabba, but I convinced her to do something different for her party. The girls had a Jessie, Toy Story party! It turned out to be super cute! Rae did a great job with the cake!
Since Ashlee turned 5, she will start kindergarten at the end of Aug. I can't believe she will already be going to school. I feel like I just got out of school and shouldn't have a child already starting school. time really goes by so fast.
Our little boy, Jett is already almost 3 months old :( I cant believe how fast he has grown. I no longer have a little skinny boy. At his 2 month check up he weighed 12lbs 2ozs. He went from 5% at birth to 55% at 2 months! He definitely caught up and is a very healthy boy!! He will be rolling over soon! He moves around all over when he is in the floor! It wont be long!
Anna will get to go to VBS this year! She is getting so big! She is our family clown. she is constantly making us laugh! from sticking her head in the toilet to wash the soap, walking around target with a women shoe that's is huge on her and refuses to take off, and a new one tonight Jesus peed the bed. I dont know about the last one, but that's what she told us....LOL She is a handful! definitely the middle child.
One last thing, a prayer request. Please pray for Ashley Kate (she is the niece of Chuck and Rae, our assiocate pastor) She is in severe rejection of her transplanted organ and needs lots of prayers. Please pray for her family as well as they are separated while Ashley and her mom are in the hospital in NE and her dad, brother and sister are at home in TX.
