POTTY TRAINED;i hope

Genevieve it seems like we have been Potty Training you forever! She'd get it for awhile and then regress! I think it was easier when I Nannied,but I really didn't deal with the nights too!
Anyway Vive got a form of a UTI;which they say was due to Bubble Baths,but that pain scared her enough that she's stayed dry since Sunday and today is Wed. night! She has been is underwear and no accidents;not even when I forgot a pull up at night! Yeah I think we've finally got it! Please Lord! Way to go MY BIG GIRL!
Now one more girl to go;let's get started! NOT

update on Bahamas post

Yep still asking Bahamas yet? Are we going? Airplane Bahamas! So I had a genius idea on what might help her though it isn't helping me now I see we have wat too many days til we leave! HEHE
Anyway I made a COUNT DOWN TO BAHAMAS calendar with her! We colored it and I got Bahamas stickers ect.
So everyday she can color another day off!
Don't know if it will help,but hey worth a shot!

Bahamas yet?

We've been planning our trip to the Bahamas w/ the girls since we found out we were pregnant with Josie! It has only been recently that Genevieve has become more and more excited! I think it has been the past week that she says everytime she wakes from nap or morning "I'm ready to go to BAHAMAS"! She will run out to the picture in our living room of The Bahamas and say"I want to swim w/ the dolpins,go to the beach and play in the sand ect" It is so sweet,but it has become sad because well she gets upset we aren't going yet! I don't know how we will make it til Sep.?
The thing is she may throw a fit til we get there,but I'll be throwing one when I have to leave there!
We are long over due;so bring it on!

Mommy working

I've been staying home with my girls for 3 years now,but the time has come that I had to go back! I didn't think it would come near this soon! I'm working Part Time,but that is my week nights and weekends! I never thought I'd give that up nor leave my girls,but the timing was right!I'm enjoying my new job and the discounts that come with it!
I think the girls are doing good too! They get more one on one time w/ Dad!
I feel better about having a steady income to help our family because we'll I love Discovery Toys,but it is based on commisson so ya never know what you might get?
All in all I hope this helps me be a better mommy getting a little break and bringing home treats for my girls!

JOSEPHINE MADELYN'S BAPTISM

Well at 5 months we had Josie Baptised @ St. Ferdinand Church. July 13th 2008. There were 5 other children;she was the youngest! It was an hour service they did after the main Mass;so that just those families were involved! We had our whole family and J's side too to support us then The Perkin's even made it to the after party! It was wonderful!
Josie did great she actually really liked when Deacon Joe poured the water on her head! Genevieve even got to play a role as big sister;Deacon Joe had the older kids go up on the alter to help Bless the water! How cute! Then Genevieve came up with us for the Blessing!
Very Proud of our girls!
I'll post pictures soon!

My Girls

No I have not brain washed anyone,but those of you who know me knowI have collected a few Betty Boop things in my day! Well when Genevieve was little I know I remember her doing this same thing,but it wasn't until Josie did it today that I remembered it! Most of you can picture the Betty Boop statue I have on our entertainment center when you walk in our home! Well today I was holding my 5 month old Josie and all of a sudden she was all gums with that toothless smile of heres! What was she smiling and then talking too yes my statue of Betty is was swee like it was another person!
Anyway Genevieve will play with some of my Betty Boop dolls and ask to watch a video occasionally,but these are fun memories for me! Well because my collecting things for myself days are over! I wouldn't trade it for the world!

IMAGINARY FRIEND

Well I beliee my 3 year old has an imaginary friend and he is a boy! She just keeps talking about him,but nothing too crazy yet! Jayson and I just tried to question her about him,but nothing to exciting yet;just cute!

WHITE BIRCH BAY

Jayson,Vive, Josie and I all tried out our brand new Water Park tonight! It was very kid friendly! Thought it wold be packed on the 2nd day open,but it was perfect! It was good family time! I even tried out the slides the yellow one is much crazier than the orange one with the tube! Gena loved it all! Why does swimming make one so tired and hungry? Of course forgot my camara this time! Try it you will love it!

Our Family Farm

We have a family farm out in Jonesburg,MO! It was my parents,but now my oldest brother took over care of it for my mom! My Dad always talked about putting a lake out there on our 100 acres,but my brother finally did it for him! Dad would be so proud! We went to check it out last month and it was getting full,but by now could be flooding!Hope not really! The girls loved the water that we soon will fish in! This is a picture of Vive by the construction of it all!

Just precious

My girls are amazing! I thank God for them;though as you know our family will never feel complete because we are missing one member! Though Boo watches over us;we all miss the girls Big Angel Bro who watches over all of us!
Genevieve was saying silent prayers at dinner and daddy asked who she was praying for? She said Boo! She knows our rose garden is in honor of Boo and whenever we pick roses;she says these are for Boo! Priceless! I love my 3 babies!

Aunt Heather's Wedding

Genevieve was the best Flower Girl ever back in May 2008 for sister's wedding! She did an awesome job and danced the night away!

DANCE CLASS

Genevieve had her first dance class tonight @ LA Dance(little Angels)! There were 14 little 3,4,5 year olds and teachers;so needless to say that was too cute!( they will be splitting up the groups next week) They did so much stuff in 45 min.! My girl of course the one who couldn't sit still the best! She loved it so much that she cried all the way home! We went in to tell Dad "I had fun" though she had a pouty lip and tears! Dad was like you did then why are you crying? "because I want to do it again daddy" too funny!
Yeah mommy got the job @ The Children's Place!
