Kapri, you are FOUR!

Kapri, you turn 4 today...FOUR! It WAS just yesterday that I got to kiss you for the first time and I swear this morning I was pinching myself that I brought such a perfect baby girl home. But no, it was 4 years ago. You are my true princess and your sense of humor is what gets me through some long days.  If I could write down all the funny things you say I could have made a few novels already. Let me tell you some of the things that make you, YOU!


* Micah is still your best friend, but you have managed to let Maggie (your school friend) take that title every so often.
* You LOVE to give kisses at very random times (I'm not complaining)
* You have adjusted to being a big sister to Maddux just fine, as you were a little apprehensive about him when you learned that he was going to be a boy!... I mean really you threw a fit and I have video to prove it.
* You have discovered Ranch dressing this year and you are now empowered to try any food, so long as it's dipped, smothered and dredged in Ranch.
* You are funny, seriously.
* You have 2 nervous tics:
1. If anything/situation makes you uncomfortable your first tic is to turn to me and say "Mommy, I love you"
2. If you are scared, hurt or sad your other tic is to say "Mommy, I miss Dukie"
*** We lost our beloved dog Duke May 7th, 2014***
*Every object that you put in your hand instantly becomes part of the royal family. Your fork and spoon are usually the King and Queeen, crayons and markers are the Prince and Princess'... and it goes on and on!
* You are such a girly girl.  Dressing up, putting on play make-up and painting your nails makes you so happy.
* You recently have been wanting to hit in the batting cage and when you asked, I secretly died with pride inside.
* There is not a night that goes by that you don't try and sneak into our bedroom, and when asked why, you simply reply with the same answer every time... "because I wanted to keep you company"

I can't thank God enough for bringing such a beautiful light into our world, keep shinning my love!

...PS, I swear you own clothes, you and your big brother are what we call Hippies :)

Giving Thanks...Kapri's Surgery and Recovery.

You know that sinking, useless, hopeless feeling you get when one of your children are sick or hurt? Those feelings were almost more than I could take when I went to take Kapri in for her 15 month check up on Tuesday morning and ended up in surgery Tuesday night... A little over two weeks ago Kapri began to limp on her right leg and after noticing I kept an eye on it and it would differ day to day.  Sometimes it wasn't even noticeable as she would run back and forth from her brother or just in her play.  Other times is was so noticeable I found myself holding her more than I ever had (after she learned how to walk).  I decided that it was time to call the Dr. and see what his thoughts were.  So Friday (18th) we got her in. The typical questions like, did she fall, was she pushed at school, does she have a temp, etc.  Since NONE of these symptoms seemed to be the case he wanted me to just keep her on Motrin and since she had her 15 month check up on Tuesday (22nd) he felt like h

What a day...

Just had to share my day from yesterday... Morning was great, minus the IPhone alarm clock that is named "Wake Up, Really Wake up and get your running shoes on"... really I named it that thinking that it would give me motivation. Seeing on how I run in the afternoon every day, I don't think it works, but I'll keep trying. every day. every morning. Sigh. Work was short as I had 2 hitting lessons scheduled so I had to get home to get set up... then it started. I saw at the office that the clouds were building in the general direction of my house, so I thought maybe there would be a chance that the lesson's would have to be canceled (I don't usually wish for this but I really wanted to spend the evening with the kids). The lighting and thunder was ridiculous! So I started to make my way and saw this... Then it occurred to me "oh $#!T" I left the equipment out, so I put the medal to the pedal and raced home. (Don't worry Mom, I didn't break

Seven

Micah! Happy 7th Birthday little man. With each passing year I think I am getting more anxious and excited to see what's in store for you! You have such a vibrant personality and you have still managed to keep your compassion towards others. Photo Cred: www.laurakmoore.com Seven things that you are into right now include (no particular order): 1. Maddux - You are obsessed with him! You love to kiss him, play with him, kiss him, hold him...kiss him. Whenever Daddy or I need an extra hand with him, you are ALWAYS there...and happy to do it! I love watching you love all over him, I am excited to see what your relationship with him will grow to be! 2.  Pokemon - Your birthday theme this year is in fact Pokemon and Nani isn't cutting any corners with creating you the perfect Pokemon cake (Charizard will be the topper). 3. Talking - Really, you love to talk... it even gets you in trouble at school sometimes. 4. Taekwondo - This January you will have been at it for a year an
