I want to start off by thanking Ang and Steph for inspiring me to start this blog. I have been thinking about it for quite awhile now and just haven't taken the time to start it. So thank you!

We have family all over the States- it would be really great for them to stay up to date with our everyday life around here. The big and little things that are going on with the girls and with us..Me and Dustin matter too..who am I kidding..they just care about the girls.
So today on April 22, 2012 I am dedicating myself to at least one blog entry a week- and totally borrowing (and by borrowing I mean stealing) Ang's idea of weekly/monthly goals. I started last week and I believe I accomplished everything..that I can remember of course.
Before I go into that here is a brief update on both Girls

Kamryn Alexandra- she never cease to amaze me with her wealth of knowledge and personality. She is currently just about riding her bike on her own!! I stood in the street and cried like a sissy lala watching her. I just cant believe that she is doing it on her own now. I cant wait for this summer to ride along the beach! She also has 2 loose teeth that she refuses to let me wiggle as she probably knows that I will just try and rip it out..come on its hanging on by a thread (or a thorn as she says). Her reading is getting more and more advanced everyday..I get such a full heart when I hear her reading to Kenz. And to see Kenz just staring at her in return. It really is a tear jerker


Kenzie Alizabeth- I really cannot believe that it has been just about 4 months since she was born. She has become quite the blabber mouth in the last couple of days. She enjoys hearing her own voice. She has 2 teeth as well that are trying ever so hard to make their way in..so we all know what that means.. anything and everything goes straight into the mouth. Which is usually moms finger..or her new butterfly hanging toy on her car seat..she seems to fancy the wings. We started her on baby food this week..she has enjoyed the apples..the peas not so much. Her face was priceless.. like really what are you feeding me. We are making so much progress on the spitting up. It is amazing when you actually read the directions (as we switched to a new one and I ASSumed that it was the same as the others) and let it sit for 5 min her spitting up is almost non-existent. Well for the last 2 days has been which is such a huge improvement from say last week.

Ok now back to the goals for this week-
1. Go thru old baby clothes for donation, keep and sell
2. Remove all the cobwebs from the house (there seems to be a huge influx of said cobwebs in the last week and they gross me out)
3. Wash and organize the "keep" clothes in their monthly piles for easy access in the future.
4. Create "Chore" chart for kam - I found a great one on Pinterest that I think that she would love. I think its about time that she get chores and maybe an allowance?? Hmm that's one to think on
5. I started this one last week- create 2 NEW dishes each week. I have really dived back in to cooking now that I am at home. I am bored (so I am sure Dustin is too) of the same dinners every week. So I have started taking inspiration and ideas to create new dishes.
6. Create 1 new item for Kissthegirls

Let's see what I can get done this week : )
