Update on Youngens...

Okay I have had my morning devotion and prayer time.. *Actually I have done that all day everyday..** Now let's talk about my youngens..
First up..

Rooney.. AKA Brandon.. My sweetie.. You should of seen him yesterday trying to put the back down on my truck.. Always trying to be helpful and such a cuddle bug.. He read The Bunnys Egg last night and did so wonderfully.. Let's just say that Kindergarten was not a good start for Brandon, so 1st grade he crammed and is right on track now.. He is reading so well, his confidence has been boosted just this past year.. He is starting to really loose all of his teeth now and is turning into a big boy and time is flying by.. He will look like a different person when his top two teeth come in.. And will actually be able to eat corn on the cob and an apple.. Bless him.. 2nd grade is getting off to a great start for him!!

Next up..

Audi (As we call her... Like the car) Otherwise known as Addison.. Actually talking about Brandon's teeth.. Let me tell you.. I WAS PAST READY YESTERDAY FOR ALL ADDISON'S TEETH TO COME IN... When you are already stressed some days it does not help that her gums hurt her, if you know what I mean.. She is walking and running around really well.. She is also being adventurous with her speaking skills..

She knows Mommy
she says, **Momma
She knows Daddy
she says, **Daddee
She knows Abbey
it sounds like **Babbee
She knows Brandon
it sounds like **Dandon
She knows Baby
it comes out like Baby..
She knows what a puppy dog says.. What a kitty cat says.. And even grrrsss with what a dinosaur says.. You ask her if she wants some yogurt and she goes to the refrigerator.. She does the funniest things and wears me out too..

And Last but not least..


Sissy.. Aka Abbey.. My super helper.. I notice when I have NO help at all during the weeks that Abbey and Brandon are with their Daddy how much more running I actually do.. Last night Addison was on my leg just fussing with her teeth and was super high maintenance.. I hollered for Abbey and she was right there.. She can tell when I get stressed and is usually there even before I have to call out for her help.. I still try to allow her to be the 11 year old that she needs to be (having fun, doing homework, watching tv, playing softball) without yelling for her help every 60 seconds.. My 6th grader, big girl.. She is starting to do big girl things and Im really just trying not to WIG out.. Just letting it all happen.. Abbey made the Northwest Rampage 97 team.. So so proud of this accomplishment for her.. I want for her to excel in her life and be this amazing woman that I know she can be.. I want to be able to teach her life lessons, though I know most of them she will learn on her own.. I need for her to have values and morals that rise higher than any decision that could make her fall one day.. So far I know that I am succeeding in this.. Keep reaching for the stars Abb you are already more amazing than you know..
