New look

I've finally got around to getting a new/updated look for the blog, what do you think?

Since most of you have probably never seen our house in San Antonio I figured I'd post our listing while it's still available, our house

We sold it in 2 days, yup 2 whole days, can you believe it?  I LOVE this house so much and am so sad to have to let it go (is it bad that I was secretly hoping it wouldn't sell?).  I'm sure whomever bought it will love it as much as we do, I hope...

I think God secretly knew I couldn't keep up the pace of showing the house by myself with four kids so he gave me a break (thank you).

Five

I can't actually believe I'm saying this but the girls turned 5 last week, what??  I feel like I was just pregnant with them yesterday, how does that happen?

We were lucky that Kev was here and got to spend their actual birthday with them, a special treat.  Instead of having a party (I'm just not a big fan, mean I know) we decided to do a few fun things with them that they don't usually get to do.


They got to get their toes painted and then we went out to Sushi (their idea)

Fin requested a butterfly

 Keira got a lady bug

We had a small ice cream cake (per their request since I'd sent cupcakes to school the day before)


We took the 3 girls to Sea World as a special treat, this is their favorite show Azul

They are both so easy going and would have been happy with anything on their birthday, they never even asked once about having a party.

Keira is our little daredevil, she is especially agile and can do most things easier than her brother, she is very athletically inclined.  She is very girlie and loves fashion, jewelry, dresses and anything sparkly.  She loves art especially coloring/painting/drawing/crafts.  I think she may be a fashion designer someday...  Oh and she's dying to get ears pierced (daddy??)

Fin is my most laid back child, she's easy going and hardly every complains.  She loves watching movies and is always the one that gets to pick them out.  She loves animals big and small and is a very compassionate soul.  She is the fastest runner in the family and has recently starting riding her bike without training wheels which she's very proud about.  She is much more cautious than her sister and it doesn't seem to bother her when she can't keep up.

They really are each others best friends and although they fight they are a united front against anybody trying to mess with them.  I think their dispositions are so different that they actually compliment each other perfectly, a match made in heaven.

Happy 5th Birthday girls!

Hello???

Anybody out there?  So I've been missing since february, let's just say life has gotten majorly in the way of me keeping up with this blog.  I hate that I'm so far behind, mainly because this is kinda like my own digital journal for the kids.

We've had so much going on here and I've been a single mom since January.  We've put our house on the market, taken it off and put it back on. Trying to sell a house with four kids is nothing short of a miracle, trust me.

Kev has basically crisscrossed the country and still has another very long leg ahead of him.  We've had our world turned upside down and things aren't going exactly as planned but we're rolling with the punches and making the best of opportunities that have come our way.

I'm making it a priority to keep up with this blog at least twice a week, if only a few pictures I'm determined not to fall off the blogosphere again, fingers crossed.

Just for fun, here are my crazy girls
