Happy Birthday, Big D!!

It was my step son's birthday yesterday.  He turned the big 1-5.  He's growing up way too fast.
To show him just how much we love him, we filled his truck up with balloons :)

The little boys LOVED helping!!!!  They couldn't wait to tell their big bubba what they had done!!  It was so cute to watch it all unfold.

                                           He loved it!!!  :)

Little cupcakes to celebrate.  His real cake was his favorite...... cheesecake!

It's baby time.....again.

Well, almost all of my friends and family know that we're expecting again.  It was hard to wait, but we didn't spill the beans until I was 15 weeks.

That was a hard secret to keep :)  It won't be long until we can find out what we are having, June 8th!!!!

I love when people ask me if we are going to find out or not and then watch them as they act so shocked & disappointed.   HELLO.....do you know me at all.  I hate to wait for things.  Plus, the last thing I want to do is bring home a girl in nothing but blue stuff :)

So, yes, I am finding out what we're having!!!  I'll keep you all posted.


                                                           The little peanut at 15 weeks.

LOVE these websites!!

I stumbled onto these websites a while back & I love reading them.  If you are like me, you like to save some money here & there OR pretty much ALL of the time!!  These are amazing reads.


These women update their blogs numerous times a day with HOT deals!   Unfortunately, I do not have access to all of the stores they talk about, but I still love reading about all of the deals.


Not only do they break down great deals, they have links to coupons!!!!  With my growing family I need all the help I can get saving money!!!  These boys are going to eat me out of house & home :)

Our newest addition

We recently got a new puppy, Jasmine.  She is an Australian Shepherd and one of the best puppies I've ever had.  The boys love her, well, maybe not Camryn.  He yells every time she even looks at him :)

She needed a new dog house so instead of going out & buying one, the hubby decided to make one.

It was great helping him & the boys LOVED building with daddy.

In the process of making it.

                        This dog house is one nice dog house.  It has thick insulation in it & everything.

Kadyn helping paint it.

The finished product.

Camryn loved playing in it.  

The boys having a good time.

This paint was a shocker when we opened it. It looked nothing like the color I picked out, instead it looked VERY PINK, but it dried darker, thank goodness.

Preschool Programs.

This past week we had two preschool programs and lots of baseball games.  This time of year is always busy with such a wide variety of things to do :)

I loved the programs.  Kadyn & Cooper have two amazing teachers.  They really go above & beyond.

 Cooper was a wild man at his program.  I really didn't get any good pictures of him because he was too busy standing up, then sitting down.   Half way through he decided he needed to go to the bathroom.  This was a 25 minute program & he went right before it started.  I think he was just trying to show off & pretty much just goof off :)  Silly kid

Kadyn's class. 

Kadyn does better at programs.  He didn't really sing, but he did the actions :)

Kadyn as a frog.

Preschool graduate.  I can't believe he'll be in Kindergarten next year.

Dylan at his game.  We were a little late, Kadyn's program was at 6 & so was big D's game.

Number 24.

They won both games!!
