HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIENNA!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIENNA!

Its so crazy to me how quickly my kids are growing up. It makes me sad. Sienna is TWO today. I was looking through these pictures of Senny as a newborn and I don't ever remember that stage. She's already a little girl. No more baby. She is the sweetest thing ever. She LOVES her sisters and she would do anything for them. She is always the one to share her toys or give up whatever she has for Kaia. She talks so cute. She points out everything to me. We were driving down the street yesterday and everytime we would pass a house she would say "House......House.....House.....Big House.....Moe House (More House)"

She Almost knows how to count to ten. She knows all of her numbers, but every once in a while she skips one here or there. She knows all her colors and shapes.

She eats like a champion. Whatever I give her.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE her.

2ND BIRTHDAY

For Sienna's Birthday my family came over and we had pizza and cupcakes. The boys spent most of the time putting together Sienna's new swing set from Grandma and Grandpa. The girls had so much fun playing on the slide and swings and digging in the dirt. They spent the WHOLE day playing outside. It was so fun.

She was so excited.

It was so funny watching her try to blow the candle out. She kept her lips together and would blow as hard as she could but no air would come out.

A little taste....

Mmmmm...pretty goood

I think I'll just lick the frosting....

My mom and dad watched the girls and Dusky and I went to the Hawks game with Zach & Tasha, and Mike & Natalie Hukill. We sat right across from Michael Jordan. So I took a picture of him. By the way, It was one of the best games i've EVER been too. Lots of fun!

Finally...an update

I haven't been very good at keeping up with this blog the last few weeks. My excuse is that I have a newborn, a 2 year old, and a 3 year old. Is that a good excuse?

Things are going really well. We are all adjusting to 3 kids with ease. Every once in a while I turn to Dusky and say "Holy Crap! We are a family of 5!" It sounds wierder to me than it feels. It feels like Eja has been here forever. The girls have been so good. Kaia is back to her sweet self. Everytime I ask her to do something she says "ok, sure". Everytime Eja cries Kaia says "my baby is crying...she needs me!" or else she says "Mom, little missy is crying" and she runs in and gives her the binkie.

Senny just keeps saying "Oh...baby Eja, soooo cute" in this whiney little voice. It's cute.

Eja is such a good baby. She hardly ever cries. She wakes up every 3 hours at night but goes right back to sleep when shes done eating.

I've been horrible at taking pictures. We had lots of visitors and I didn't take any pictures. But I just got a new camera and I'm going to try to do better.

Eja loves to cuddle with her dad. anytime she is fussy (which isnt very often), Dusky picks her up and she cuddles up and immediately goes to sleep.

Rob and Sally came out last Thursday. It was so good to see them. We went and saw our cute little town of Senoia. They have the cutest little downtown street with antique shops, cafes and ice cream and fudge shops. It's a fun place. We did a lot of hanging out at the house, watching movies, and eating food.

The day they came out Dusky took Kaia to the doctor. She was really sick and having a hard time breathing. They gave her breathing treatments, steroids and an antibiotic. It took her forever to start feeling better. We ended up taking her off the steroids. They were HORRIBLE! they made her soooooo mean. She felt like she couldnt breathe. She kept taking her shirts off because they were tight around her neck (even the ones that were really loose). After we took her off of those she started feeling a lot better. Then Sienna got sick. She never had to go on medicine though. She had a really bad fever over the weekend and then it went away.

I'm soooo glad that the baby didn't get anything. Hopefully it will stay that way because I woke up Monday morning with Pink Eye......Does it ever end?

There are like 25 prescriptions for pink eye and there is only 1 that you can use when you are breast feeding. It's not eye drops, it's this nasty goopy stuff that you have to put on your finger and stick in your eye 4 times a day. I have to take it for a week and I can't wear my contacts for 2 weeks. The only glasses I have are totally broken, so I look like a dummy walking around with broken glasses on my face that fall off everytime I move my head. It's awesome!

Darren, Tricia, Chase & Branson came on Saturday and stayed for the whole week. It was so fun. The girls had a blast with Chase & Branson. Darren and Chase worked their little behinds off pouring cement, laying sod, and having mud fights. I had to shampoo my carpet like 25 times while they were here. But it was fun.

The girls played outside in the mud most of the time. Kaia found worms. I went outside and found her holding one, smashing another one, and trying to feed one to Sienna. She's crazy!

Tricia came over everyday and helped cook and hold the baby. Eja didn't get put down the entire time they were here. I think she kind of got used to it. Now she wants to be held all the time. Unfortunatly I'm having to break her of that habit.

We also went to the Zoo and the Coke Factory while they were here. The girls had so much fun at the Zoo. They had a little petting zoo and they were in heaven.

I finally took a few pictures this morning of the girls...

Eja-2 1/2 weeks old

Sienna-2 Years old (in 3 days)

Kaia holding Eja

This was the only pic I could get of all 3. They are all looking different directions, but what do you do? They wouldn't cooperate.

Kaia- 3 1/2 years old

Eja and the new house

I'm finally putting pictures up of our new house. And a few of our new baby.

LOVE the house. Dusky has done a good job putting it together. I can't wait to get the yard done.

I had already taken the picture and uploaded in on the computer before I realized that Dusky changed the cute "Spring Time" blocks to say "Crap Pants"

Kitchen

Eja & Sienna's Room

This is how Kaia cleans the Living room. Pile everything on top of Grandpa

Eja is such a sweetheart. I'm so in love with her. She's the best baby. She just hangs out all day long. She hardly ever cries. When she wants to eat she lets out a short, loud scream. It's really funny. She usually only wakes up once to eat at night. Sometimes twice.

Uncle Tanner. (It's hard to get 3 little girls to cooperate for a picture)

Eja's first bath. Her belly button fell off when she was 3 days old. CRAZY. It took Siennas like 2 weeks.

The car seat looks little until we put her in it

Taking her home from the hospital. We put that outfit on all 3 of the girls to bring them home. I don't know why the picture keeps going sideways.
