So tried to update the first page of the website and not working out for me. Throat hurts, scratchy voice, nose is dripping, and kids are whining from the shots that they got today. Anyway to make this quick Samantha is 27 1/2lbs. and 36in. tall and Haley was 30lbs. and 36 1/2in. tall. Haley's finally got to the 50% in almost everything but height (35%). Samantha is in the 25% in all but her weight (20%). Both woke up from their naps today at same time. Haley went potty and is now playing Samantha went back to sleep. Couldn't get her to potty...might have an accident but didn't want to deal with two cranky girls. Got band tonight...gonna try playing at the Chaska (monday night) community band instead of Hopkins (wednesday night). Shawn has a geo-caching gathering on Wednesday that he likes to attend (which is why he got injured). So rather than having to choose between the two I thought I'd give Chaska a try. Well gotta run get mail and check on the other two sleeping kids. Wanted to thank all who attended the party. Missed all those who couldn't attend. Many apologies to those who didn't receive invitation. All invites were sent at the same time at the post office so have no clue why some were rcvd and some were not. Sorry.

Don't Know What to Tell You

Well don't know why the website isn't showing up. So I thought I'd back-up the blog and remove the past 2 years worth. Yup didn't work. I figured as much. Just a note that if you really truly want to read any of the past blogs from 05,06, and 07 let me know. It was a pain in the butt taking them off and I'm sure it's not fun putting them back on. Guess I could copy and past a years worth at a time in the blog? Anyway thought I'd blog and save it till I can post it. Gotta try and keep up.
Anyway the girls are fighting right now about who is the "sir" and who get to hold the map. Ooops Samantha hurt her butt. Now Haley shared the map aka: chutes and ladder game board and all is well. The games they play and the imagination they use just cracks me up. The use a lot of scenarios that happen on the tv shows and movies. But also catch them playing church, nurse/doctor, band director, and school. Most confusing thing is when they play house and one of them is "mom" and their is crying and or fighting involved and they are only playing. Drives me nuts!! Yet it so cute today they would take Jaxon by the hand and tell him that "daddy you need to help take care of baby". Jaxon however didn't really like being told what to do...he was also very tired.
We went for a nice long walk today in the big noisy wagon. Jaxon and Samantha passed out on the way home. So they were ready to play in the snow. Nice thing about the girls is when the gloves get wet they get cold and then they decide it's time to go in. So for now no fights about when to come into the house.
Haley and Samantha are getting a little to good at helping themselves. Haley is constantly in the fridge getting apples, oranges, and the ultimate favorite cheese sticks (string cheese). Samantha tends to just get her milk cause Haley's good at sharing when she's being naughty and gets one for Samantha. Haley also had poop accident and Shawn only found out because he caught her cleaning her underwear in the sink. He said she did a good job cause most of the poop was in the toilet.
I had my first poop accident in over a month with Samantha today. That was even after she already pooped in the toilet. She must've thought it was a fart. She is a farting machine. Haley tens to loudly burp every time she takes even a little sip of anything. Both of them started belching during Deacon Russ's sermon on Sunday. It was embarrassing to us but no one else seemed phased by it.
So anyway I found out that this will post even though we can't see the web page. So when the page is up you'll have some reading to catch up on!!! Gotta run and get supper started.

Well took awhile but hopefully the process will go faster on updating the homepage. Just need to figure out why the pictures don't want to upload correctly got sick of trying last night. Now paying the price today...so tired. Didn't get much sleep today got my remaining 3 wisdom teeth pulled at 7:30 this morning. With a little sleep while the dentist worked and some on the way home while Shawn drove just doesn't seem like enough. Girls keep wanting to see in my mouth...so far not taking advantage that mom really can't talk. Jaxon on the other hand is and hasn't stopped touching everything that he's not suppose to since Bobbi left @9:30.

Okay so I can't get the pictures working yet...all in time. Until now please visit my websites http://www.myspace.com/cindysuemom_of_2 (there's a slideshow and video to look at) and I'm also in facebook but that one you have to join to see anything. Trying to get our gallery to work on bobbi's laptop so I can get pictures on the website but might have to give up on that theory.

Year Three is rapidly approaching. They are getting too smart and learning some of the easy white lies the mom and dad used and can't anymore. Potty training is almost @ 100%. We (meaning I) haven't gotten brave enough yet for night time. However we r doing good at nap time. Probably start up on Monday for underwear all night. They have a few tinkle accidents once in awhile because waiting till the last minute and tinkle while they're trying to climb up and get their pants down. It's been well over a month since we've had any poopy accidents!!!!!!! Yea now all I have to do is change Jaxon poopy diapers....ewwwwhhhh. They love coloring, "school work" (preschool books that we go over together), dress up, and I often catch them playing pretend. One minute they could be going to the North Pole to see Santa the next they are super heroes.

Haley Sue well she's constantly trying to see how much she can get into as soon as mom turns her back. Loves going into mom and dad's room to find pooper (the kitty) but always seems to find daddy's chewable gas-ex pills and or mom's chapstick. One day she decided to color the walls with a black marker that ironically was hers and I took it away. Evidence is still on our pillowcases. Thank god for Mr. Cleans Magic Eraser. She's a great helper and loves taking off Jaxon's hat and coat. She's constantly running to the fridge to get cheese sticks and milk. You learn to get your ears tuned in to hearing the fridge door open.

During the day the gate is gone (yes!) out of the livingroom and the kids roam free. When Jaxon is here we close the bathroom door and if I'm not sitting at the table the kitchen pocked door is closed. Otherwise Jaxon's playing in the garbage and or toilet if they are left open. Been trying to get outside more with the kids now that it's semi warming up. This morning I took the girls outside to play in the snow. When Jaxon and Bobbi got here we headed in...Jaxon was not happy!! Guess he's liking the fact he can walk a little bit more now with his boots.

Samantha Jean she's a little fire ball when she gets mad. She's the whiner and does almost all the tattle tailing!! Ugh!! Almost put her in time out for whining. Lately she's been the better of the two eaters. (All her sister wants is milk.) She tends to be the oops held tinkle too long girl. But was the first to want underwear @ nap time. Probably could've let her do no diaper tonight but gonna wait till Monday to prepare myself!! Poor thing always tend to get woken up by her sister Haley...probably why she's the whiner!!
