The girls before going to the Angel's game. Where you ask did they get their cute skirts? Not from SMOOCH (those of you who watch Keeping up with the Kardashian's know that store:)), their mother, yes me, made them. With a little help from Peg-leg of course.
Hannah with her long lost twin Kaelyn. Hannah has this quirky bond with KK. They are exactly a like in attitude, they look alike, and unfortunately for Kelsey, they act alike. You can always find the 2 of them using markers, banging on the keyboard of Poppy's office, getting into the jar of cetaphill and lathering themselves up, etc... Kelsey and I have to make sure that they include Lauren, who is usually reading a book with them in their antics:)
Lauren and Kaelyn and Hannah at the baseball game.

We have had such a great week of playing, swimming, shopping, eating, and visiting Walmart this week with the Putz family. We are sad that it ends tomorrow. Kelsey and the girls are going home Sunday morning, so for those of you who have tried to call me, I will be free again on Sunday, plus John is home, so I have to be here:)

Another Day




We have had a beautiful past couple of days. A little hot the last 2, but fantastic. We have been swimming and playing in the water table. The girls love being outside and now that they have been reintroduced to the pool, they are once again water babies.


We had a fun weekend with Bennet and Mallory playing and we are looking forward to the arrival of the twins tomorrow!! It should be busy week!:)

Hannah's got it all wrong

Hannah has got a great imagination. As she was playing today I hear her with her Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls. I love you so much I want to marry you. You are so beautiful. I just love her. I tell her Hannah, they are brother and sister, you can't have them marry eachother.

Well tonight, she is playing with her Little Mermaid characters and I hear her being Flounder the fish saying, Dad(to King Triton) have you seen Ariel, I can't find her I think Eric took her and he is going to hurt her. I said Hannah Ariel and Eric are in love. He wouldn't do anything to hurt her. She looked at me, and went right on playing with her stuff!!!!

Wipe, Wiping, Wope

We have been having trouble with Hannah wiping after she goes to the restroom. She is always in such a hurry and she just runs out. Long story short, today I caught her in a lie about it, so she is on red alert. So later on today, she went to the bathroom and as she came out before I could even ask her, she ran back in.

She came out and said..."I woped, I forgot the first time"

My new girl.



I know, I know. My mom told me, not to put naked pictures of my daughters on the Internet and I will take it off. I just had to show everyone really quick. Kate is coming out of her surgery so well. Today was the first day, honestly, in her whole 18 months that she has woken up happy. She was laughing, playing on our bed, and most importantly not whining! Her nose has been running really bad still, which was to be expected, but today, John salined her and it hasn't run since. Then in the evening, I caved and nursed her (I hadn't done it since Monday), but she was crying and trying to unzip my jacket (I know, gross) but I was in pain, so I figured I would give her a little. She didn't take much, but the best part was that she was breathing through her nose while she was nursing. That has NEVER happened. She usually has to stop and take a breath. So nursing her ended up to be a good thing, because I experienced something I hadn't before.
Now the picture. John will every once in a while take a shower with the kids (I don't care if you think it's weird, it gives me a break:)), but Kate will NEVER go it. She screams and arches her back and all the works. Yesterday she took one with him and all of a sudden loves it. Today, as he was getting ready to go to the Angels game, he was in the shower and Kate was trying to take her clothes off and get in. This is a picture of her in the shower by herself because she didn't want to go out. She is a new kid. Thank God.
Now the artwork. This is how all Hannah's pictures come home from school. I'm starting to get a little concerned. Everything is always black or dark blue. I tell her she has anger in her artwork.

Don't Judge


Don't judge until you've spent a day with the Ross girls:)

The first smile


Here is Kate's 1st smile before 4pm. Her nose is still running, but the Dr. told us to give it a little while because she would be swollen. She has recovered fine and is back to her old self!!!
