Picture time!!!

Can I just tell you how hard it is to take pictures with a little devil child and a 6 week old baby??? Kaylor makes it impossible for us to take pictures every time we try...I swear just when I thought she couldn't get any worse....she does! She will kick, scream, and throw such a tantrum for no reason, just becasuse we sit her down on our lap...as soon as we let her go she's just fine, heaven forbid don't touch her or she'll throw the biggest fit! She can make a crazy person go crazy. I seriously can not keep up with her. As soon as I clean up a mess she makes, she's got a whole nother mess made. I think she is going through a terrible stage right now...(at least I hope its just a stage) Some how at the end of the day she's worth every minute of it. Dax....Oh my heavens, what can I say? He is my little teddy bear. I didn't know having a baby could be so enjoyable. He is so sweet, I honestly dont think they come any sweeter than him. He NEVER fusses. Only when he is hungry. I can sit him anywhere for how ever long and he's totally happy. He's a little chill bug. Now if only Kaylor was like him...I think I could have ten more kids. Jake...what would I do without him? He truley is my soulmate. I love him with all my heart and there isn't a day that goes by I don't think about how lucky I am. I really don't know what I did in life to marry such an amazing person. He works soooo hard and always has such a good attitude about everything. He would do anything for anyone. He's such an amazing person. He wakes up at 5 in the morning to work out and study, leaves for work at 8, goes to school, back to work, gets off at 6 and is litterally studying the rest of the night until 12 or sometimes evern 1 or 2. and some how he still finds time to play with kaylor, do something to make me happy and occasionally make the family dinner. How he does it? I don't know. Kaylor and Dax are very lucky to have him for a Dad.

Motherhood

Being a Mom is crazy! It's the hardest job I've ever had to do, and at the same time it's the funnest job. It makes me crazy some days. I try to remember that they're just kids/babies...and to chill out and calm down. It seems like my hands are ALWAYS full.. if it's not kaylor screaming her head off, its Dax. (seriously Mom...how did you do TEN kids) thats all I ever think about every time they are both crying.

I always feel guilty when I look at Kaylor sleeping so pretty and peacefully after a day of frustration. They are so innocent and happy and have no idea what kind of crazy world they are coming into. I just hope and pray that they endure to the end and make wise choices throughout their life.
I can't even say it enough how thankful I am for my kids and the ability to even have children (healthy ones at that). I love them so much.

It breaks my heart hearing about the earth quake in Haitie. Seeing those little kids hurt. I would die if I had to see one of my kids go through pain like that. It makes me sick. Just when Kaylor is sick it makes me so sad. Which brings me to think about Haley and Travis and Ron and Vicki. I don't know how they do it. I hope and pray that I never have to see my kids in pain or go through those kinds of trials. I'm afraid I'm not strong enough.



The end of my day!!!
