TRIBUTE TO CYDNEY

Cydney say cheese!! I think she is not very vain, she just likes the camera (so does not get that from me, more like her aunt nana!!)

As you can tell it was really hot at the Zoo that day... She was dying hence the haircut in the following picture.

Cydney had just gotten her hair cute in this picture.

Isn't she sooo cute and adorable here. She absolutely loves to pose. Cydney loves to ride bikes, if we are outside she is riding her bike!

Thanks Grandma Skidmore for the cute clothes... What a cute model!

Cydney and Isis getting ready to go to the Hannah Monatana movie!! We had sooo much fun. It was kind of scary that is the day that the Tornado hit Murfreesboro it was a F4. We drove down to Murf to get some cake at Julia's Bakery and got stuck in traffic, not realizing that is where the tornado hit. We got to see all the damage it was really sad. But we still had lots of fun on our girls outing! :)

Cydney at school celebrating her 7th birthday!!! They also had an Easter egg hunt that day too, score Cydney'f Birthday!!

Cydneyis such a good little mommy helping with Jayden all the time and encouraging Spencer to "clean your room" "eat your food" and "go to your room." She is great at everything she does. She is reading 3rd grade books, she is at the top of her class with reading, math, and is always very helpful to her teacher. She is the tallest girl in her class. She loves chocolate. She is a singer, dancer, she wants to be Hannah Montana, a mom, a doctor, when she grows up. Kurt claims she is a daddy's girl, but in real life, she loves me more and just doesn't know it.......

She is loving first grade. Her favorite thing to say is " Stop treating me like a child, I am not a child anymore..." Then 10 minutes later she says " I can't do that I am just a child..." Go figure... She is very dramatic and I absolutely love it. She is very fun to be with when she has had sleep. She is our adorable red head.. I love you Cydney!!!! Love Mom

Tribute to Spencer

My handsome little boy turns five on April 6th. We celebrated a little early, but he totally did not mind at all. All these pics are from within the last year. From like summer of 2008 to now. I should have started from the top to bottom and finished with him at age 5 but I am still not very good at the blogging thing.
Spence here is opening one of his presents he got and loving it.!!!!

Spence doing one of the many funny faces he does, this is the bad/ super cool guy look!! hehehe!!!

Here he is sculpting transformers and blobs eating alive his Flash Man!! You can see part of mommy's blue flower I made......

Ok, this is how Spencer wanted to take his picture in the first place when Grandma Skidmore got this suit for him for his 5th b-day. But then I made him turn around...........

Look how handsome he looks!!!!

Spencer does the coolest tricks on this big wheel. He races down our driveway and does two or three 360's at the bottom of the cultisac. And sometimes he fly's up and into the neighbor's yard. It is really funny and I am crossing my fingers he won't get hurt. But if you know him, he always gots some kind of bruise or scar or bump from doing something daredevilish! (No broken bones YET though.... knock on wood.....)

Spencer posing in one of his crazy poses...

Here he is getting his dose of sugar, you know for the down moments of non-terrorizing the house. But look closely and you can see his CTR ring. If only that worked with bedtime and staying close to mommy at Target instead of running up and down the aisle screaming at the top of his lungs... just for fun.

Smyrna has one of the coolest parks this was in the colder months not sure which one???

Spencer being non else but SuperMan flying off the slide.

This was at the state farm. It was sooooo much fun. Isn't he too handsome in this pic? I think sooo.

Here he is Spence at the zoo.

Spencer is playing with organic legos at the Frist Center in Nashville.

Chritmas 2008 !!! Yeah!!!!

More Christmas !!!!!! Cheese your on camera!!!!

Spencer playing soccer last summer. Totally one of his sports, lots of running and kicking to of the best remedies for him!!

He so thinks he is awesome in this pic!!!

I am pretty sure we were at the park by the lake in this one. I think it was at Austin's first birthday party.

Spencer at the state fair again riding the ponies in August.

Cheese!!!! He sure does alot of those... TOOOO FUNNY!!

Anywho that is all the pics I have on this computer to show you of this last year as being 4 years old. Boy is he ever growing up to be a little man. He still wears his Spiderman costume. But not every minute of every day any more. Once in awhile he will wear it to Super Target or to another store, he always get a "wow!! look there is Spiderman!" from lots of passerbyers. He loves transformers, bionicles, legos, dinosaurs. His favorite shows are Scooby Doo, Sid the Science kid on PBS, Magic the School Bus, and any super hero show. He absolutely loves to learn about the body, loves to look at all my medical stuff, and loves to learn about muscles, bones, blood. He currently has a catepillar as a pet. Asked for a half wolf, half dog for his graduation present (from high school). He still has TONS and TONS of energy to out last all 5 of us put together. He can right his name, the alphabet, his numbers, read a couple of words draw snakes, houses, people, and all sorts of crazy things. He absolutely loves to go to church and "get candy" from his new teacher, so he said in his testimony last fast and testimony meeting in front of the whole congregation. It was too cute. We will be having a big party for him and his friends here on the 18th, he is really excited, I just need to send out the invites. There is soooo much more I could write but there is not enough space. I am just so thankful that this little guy is in our family. He is so much fun and most of the time has the hugest smile on his face or does the funniest/craziest things, he is also a very caring and loving big and little brother anyone could ask for.

HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY SPENCER!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!

Outside Play!!

Here are some newer pictures of the cutie pies out playing in the circle while the weather is warm for a day.
We have been having the strangest of weather out here in good ol' Tennessee. One day it is 74 to 78 degrees the next it is 40 and snowing. Weird I know.
Well Conference was awesome of course, Joanna and Quinn came up and watched it with us, so we celebrated Spence's Birthday early. it was way fun, we had some super yummy barbeque beef and chicken sandwiches and some yummy cookies and mini cupcakes (without the stick) :)
Cydney is so sweet to help her sister out!

Spencer to his 360's!!

Austin and Jayden are the best of buds, they are really too cute here together taking a ride!!

Jayden getting ready to roll.

Jayden is a crazy Dancer Baby!!

Ok, so I totally think that this is to funny not to share. She is soooo funny when she starts to dance!!

Spencer's phtography and Sweet Jayden Moments

So Spencer was being Mr. Photographer the other day. Well, you can see for yourself, he took a pic of the screen of the computer with Sid the Science kid game on it.

And here is one of mommy's flower daddy got her a very very long time ago. (the only reason I am emphasize the very very very very very long time is because Kurt is sitting right next to me and reading this as I go. Hopefully he will get the HINT.....) No just kidding, really don't like getting them anyway :(

One night Jayden had to have her baby's with her to sleep. I thought I downloaded the one when we was asleep but this is pretty much what she looked like all night but asleep. It was too cute. Or was it her nap? It all runs together.

Ok so I was painting my toe nails and Jayden wanted her toe nails and finger nails done. So, I sat her on the toilet and she sat there patiently while I painted all 4, and I blow dryed them as well, obviously because who wants red nail polish all over their house.

Well, I hope everyone has a great week!!! Love ya all!!!

Yeah!!!!

I just read how warm it is going to be tomorrow. I have one daugher with the Flu "B" and the other is coughing and nasal dripping everywhere. I can open the windows!!!!!!!!!!!! Let the fresh air come in !!!!!! No more Lysol smell!!!!!! No more sick people smell!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This forecast better be right or I am going to be a little miffed!!
I am sooooo going to bed now. Have a great night, I know I am knowing I have two beautiful days of warmth headin' my way.
SEEZ Ya!!!
