The days are flying

It is already the end of September and my baby is 7 months old! Wow, it seems like just yesterday I was adjusting to 2 little ones, I think I'm still adjusting but Addisyn is getting so big. She really is a happy baby and cheers me right up after a tough day at school. Kylynn is getting such a vocabulary it is hillarious. This week on the way to school she told me I need to pay attention to her. She likes the Sugerland song, do do do, so every morning and on the way home from school it is "mommy do do song." I now have to limit it to one time or I'll listen to it the whole way to Auntie's and the whole way home. She also tells me to turn it louder. Quite the character she is.
Both girls are pretty snotty right now. Kylynn's is green so I was told to watch it and if it doesn't clear up to call the doctor cause she's fighting an infection.
Another busy week for me. I am wrapping up my first class this week so I have to go to a Bosnian restaurant and work on some research. I have to get Addi's blood work done to check for Spherocytosis and get the girls fitted for Lindsey's wedding. Addisyn had her ears checked last week and thank goodness they were perfect!
Off to take a nap, everyone else is already I just wanted to update this! I need my zzz's when I can get them.

She's Sitting!!!!

Here is a video to show you she is sitting! YEAH!!! Today at my aunt's she sat for 1/2 hour before tumbling. Tonight she tumbled after about 10 - 15 minutes but I think Kylynn running around and the dogs might have had something to do with that. She is so much fun! Enjoy listening to our Addi and watching her sit, yeah, that sounds like fun.

I'm also so excited, I called a cleaning lady tonight and guess who's going to hire a cleaning lady? You got it, ME:)!!!! Hallelujah! What a relief this will be, it will just be one less thing I have to do right now. I am so looking forward to October 3 when I can come home to a spotless house:)

She's getting big...

My baby is getting so big! She weighed 16 lbs 10 oz (70th%) and was 27 1/2 in (95th%). So her daddy is right on his predictions, she will probably be the tall skinny one. I just looked in Kylynn's book and she was 3 lbs heavier and 1/2 shorter. Should be interesting to see how these girls end up. Addisyn is doing much better with her sitting. The doctor said she looks great where she is at. She will start straight up but then bend over quite a bit. I just can't get over how happy she always is. It has been such a blessing to have such wonderful girls, I can't complain at all. My were and are both very good babies. Maybe we shouldn't have another one. That could throw our world upside down:)
I'm back at it full force and it is really overwhelming right now. I'm anxious to get settled and into a routine. I just feel like I'm in over my head. It doesn't help that I have 30 students and no extra help. Hopefully in the next few weeks I may get some para help and I have a wonderful mom from last year that will be helping me on Mondays, YEAH!

Jason is in Pittsburgh till Thursday so it is single mom life for me, fun. The girls and I went for a walk tonight, it was a beautiful cool night. Addisyn fell asleep, so precious. We came home and gave her a bath and bottle and off to bed she went. Then Kylynn wanted ice cream so I shared a bowl with her, she ate most of it:) Then it was time for her to go off to bed. Now I'm just updating some things and I did a little class work for my class tomorrow night. I am so blessed to have my aunt around who watches my girls and will take them longer if needed. The girls absolutely love her and it is just so comforting to know they are loved and in great hands. We truly do appreciate her and love having her watch our girls.
I have to say she saved me today big time. Jason forgot to tell me last night that she was out of formula, I had Open House. So we had no formula and Kylynn went to Auntie's in her footie pj's and had no shoes. So Auntie went to Costco today to buy formula and swung by the house to get Kylynn's shoes for me, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I wanted to just go home and cry. I felt like a horrible mother. There is just so much going on right now that I have to sit back and get a little more organized. But with 4 baskets of laundry to fold, classwork to do for my grad class, and other household chores to do it is tough to relax. I'll make it though, the Lord only gives us what we can handle. He must think I can handle a lot:)

One busy woman!

I tell you what, I have been running around lately like a chicken with my head cut off. I start school tomorrow and it has been crazy for about 2 weeks now. I've been busy setting up my classroom, packing for the UP and starting grad classes. Yup, grad classes. I'm going to be working on an ESL program which will take me 2 years but when I'm done I'll have my plus 30 and go over to another pay scale. Plus when I finish the district pays me back so it's for free, can't been that.
Our baby is 6 months old already, this is a common sight! Her mouth wide open with a big smile!Our short boat trip a few weeks ago. Daddy did good buying Kylynn a life jacket! They match!

We just got back a few hours ago from the UP so I'm going to add some pictures of that and what's been happening around the house. Addisyn is now 6 months old! Wow, time flies. She is gaining weight, loves her food and is working on sitting up. We are so blessed to have such a happy baby, she is always so happy, even at 6:40 when I wake her up in the morning, she has a smile on her face. Kylynn enjoyed the UP and playing with her friend Emma. She is excited to go to Auntie's tomorrow. Time to get into a routine around here.

Emma Jones and Kylynn, wish we lived closer, they were so cute together.

Jason and his tractor. This is where he was all weekend! In his glory!Our family at the Cabin - we had a great time!
