Dallas here we come....

Well after three days of packing and about one to many bags, I am finally done! Kids require a lot of stuff! We are headed to Dallas this weekend....Cory has a training. So me and the kiddos are going to hang out with family all weekend! We are really looking forward to our visit. Evan is so excited, he even told his teacher that he was going on a trip! I will take lots of pictures. Have a great weekend!

I have packed snacks, movies, and toys......Pray for us!!! Maybe they will sleep all the way....probably not. We plan on making many "get out and ran" stops.

Chat Soon!

4 Month Check Up

Marti had her 4 month check up and shots today.....she gained a little over 2 pounds (13lbs and 3 oz), grew 2 inches (24 in), and her head is measuring 16 in. She is an average size baby, which is great since she was born at 37 weeks and 6 days. She loves to put her toys in her mouth, roll and scoot on the floor, and loves loves to sit up...she thinks she is a big girl. She has started eating green beans, carrots, applesauce and bananas. Dr. Reese said she is doing great and you would never know that she was born early. After her doctor appointment we ran a few errands and ate lunch with Aunt Amber. Just us girls.....

Love the Rides to School



This morning I was putting the kiddos in the car so we could head to school. Evan said, "Mom, I need sugars." Then he said, "Mom, your kisses make me feel better." Awwww.....my heart just melted. He is such a sweet kid! So just about every morning Evan sings in the back seat and talks to Marti. This morning was no different, I just turn the radio down and listen to the sweet music coming from the back of the car. I love how Marti is now starting to join in the mix. Oh- the conversations Evan has with her.....I need to put the video camera in the car because it is too precious. I love our kiddos to the moon.

Today after I dropped the kiddos off at school, I headed to the mall to do a little school shopping. Now I am eating lunch and about to head to school to work on my classroom before swim lessons. Oh- I need to order my new Iphone.....So excited and yes I am getting Cory one too. You know he is dying to get the new one. I have loved my blackberry but I think its time for a change, Cory loves his iphone now, but I know he wants to update. I better get to school.....Love to all!!!

I love my husband and sweet kiddos!

3 Meals.....

We love Mexican food.....who doesn't! Well, here is a great way to get more bang for your buck and have some yummy meals. We buy the chicken fajita meat that is already seasoned at the grocery store (you can also buy the beef) and grill it out. So last night we had chicken fajitas with all the trimming....the prepackaged fajita meat will feed quite a few people, so we always have left overs. Today for lunch (using the left overs) I finely chopped the meat, peppers, onions and added a can of black beans (drain and rinse) and made chicken fajita and black bean quesadillas. Evan loved them! They were so good and I still have a little of the mixture left, I think I am going to put it in a salad with chips and have a taco salad. I was also thinking that you could buy tortilla chip and make some yummy nachos. Just thought I would share....we are not big left over people but the chicken fajita meat is too good to throw away! Let me know if you come up with any other ways..I would love to know what you did. Have a happy weekend!

Pictures

Here are a few of the pictures I was going to leave you with the last blog post. There are a few more but these are the only ones it would upload, I will work on the others later.

Evan pasted two levels @ Swim Lessons! He will get to ring the
bell Thursday at the "Bell Ceremony"

Speaking of Evan, I am going to have to buy the kid a watch!
He is SO interested in time.
"What time is it momma." (all the time)
"What does your watch say the time is."
"Look momma a clock, what time does it say?"
He knows that when the sun starts going down its getting
close to bed time and he will say, "It is 8:30 momma."

Mart's first taste of green beans!
She loves apples and bananas...I am having to put them in
her cereal. The cereal by itself is to hard on her tummy.


That is all for now....
Make a silly face today!
