Easter weekend

This weekend was great...but really long! Friday I spent the day with Sydney and Madison for some quality time. I took them shopping and thought it would be nice to let them pick out their own Easter dresses. This was probably not the best idea....we went to four stores before they both picked one out! We then went and had a great lunch with the grandparents. I had wanted to take them to paint pottery and have it fired...but we ran out of time (this was the one thing I really wanted to do with them), oh well I guess we can save it for a rainy day.

Saturday everything just went wrong...lol. We were suppose to take the kids to a good friends son's b-day party and then get the kids pictures done. Neither happened. This is why I don't make plans. My brother decided at the last minute to come into town, which was nice. He wanted to drive over and see Robert's truck...so we met him in Allen had lunch and then let the kids look at the truck and stuff. Then by the time we all loaded up (two adults & six kids) and got back to the house...Robert called and asked if when we were suppose to be leaving for the b-day party. By this time the party had already been going to 30 minutes so there was absolutely no way we would of made it there before it was over.

Sunday, again planned on going to church....but....Sydney had a stomach bug and needless to say "got sick" all down the hall and in the bathroom. She was fine later by the time we had lunch and hunted Easter eggs. The kids hunting the eggs were the best part of the entire weekend! Cagen finally caught on and when his basket got to full the eggs started falling out....and Maddie would just follow him and pick them up!

Even though every single thing we had planned didn't happen, it was a really great Easter!

so worried

We got some bad news on Wednesday (I won't go into details, it is really private) and I think this is the most worried I have ever been in my entire life! Just the other day I was thanking God on here for my wonderful family and now it could all be torn apart. It is one thing to have to deal with something that you can help or deal with consequences...but when it is something completely out of your control it is so hard. I am trying to be strong for my family, but it's hard. I know that they feel just as worried as I am, if not worse. Please just pray for our family and keep us in your thoughts. I will update any news that I have ...but probably won't be until Monday.

First blog

Well I really wanted to keep this blog to keep our friends and family updated. It seems like our life is flying by and there is to much happening on a daily basis and it's impossible to call each person and tell them. Anyway, so if ya want to know...read on..lol.

It seems like ever since Robert and I went to San Diego I want to spend more quality time with the kids. This morning we got up and were all dancing around to the music and had breakfast together. I am really lucky to have four healthy kids...and I try to remember that when they stress me out. Raegan is about to start crawling...but I think she has found another way to get around. I have noticed that since we got hard wood floors she just pulls herself around..lol....it is so cute though! Cagen asked to use the poddy yesterday...which was a complete shock since neither Robert or I have really pushed the subject on him. He didn't go ...but he tried. Sydney and Madison are the same old little sneaky girls..lol. They are both getting so big way to fast!

Anyway, that is all for now....have a wonderful day!
