Umm.....I am alive

Hey Everyone,

I must start by saying that we are all alive and well, and I know I haven't blogged and I am VERY SORRY!! I must tell you that I have LOTS of pictures to blog, but they are stuck on my BRAND NEW camera, that is 13.6 megapixels, and my poor old computer can't handle more than 10 of them, so until we get ANOTHER external hard-drive, or a new computer, I don't know when I will have any photos to blog. Sorry!

Since I am using this as a journal and documentation, I will tell you that I did take Maddie and Payton in for their 7 year old check-up and here are their stats:
Maddie
Height:46"-19%
Weight-43lb-14%
(Yes, she is small, and always has been)
Payton
Height: 49.5"-76%
Weight: 55lb-57%
(That is about how he has been since birth! Put his head circumference in there, and it would problaby be aroun 90%!)

I can't find Lexi's so when I do, I will post those as well.
maddie and Payton had to get a vericella booster, a flu vaccine, tb test, and iron test. I had Payton go first, thinking he would be strong, and would make Maddie feel better. BOY WAS I WRONG!!!!! Payton was crying quite a bit during the whole thing!



By the time Payton was done, Maddie was practically climbing the walls trying to get out of the room, and HYSTERICAL. She would not calm down, so I just held her down. The funniest part is that the nurse did the TB and iron test first, so she was crying HARD, the nurse then did the 2 shots in her leg and Maddie had NO IDEA she had done them. The nurse started to walk out and Maddie started smiling and asked, "I don't have to get the shots in my leg??" The nurse and I just laughed. Both Maddie and Payton said the fingerprick was the part that hurt the worst! Well, drama averted, and luckily, they both survived and they are both healthy, and for that, I can't complain!!!

Now, I am also supposed to get a flu shot, and I don't want to!! OUCH!! Last time I got one I was sick for a week!! I dont' want to do that again! We shall see. It's next week, so I have to sign up soon!!

Lexi's Party


Happy Birthday Lexi! Lexi was SOOOO excited for her party! She has been wanting a "Kitty" party for about 3 months! She wanted a Kitty cake and a Kitty Pinata. THose were her only requests! My AMAZING sister-in-law, Hilary, made this adorable-and VERY tasty- kitty cat face cake. It matched everything perfectly! We then had a pinata that lexi had the first and last hit of!
Thanks to all of our friends that came, and apparently the BOYS loved the cat ears as much, if not more, than the girls!! Very funny!!
Now she wants to be a kitty for Halloween
