Having the "Talk" with Mikayla

Well I was watching Dr. Phil the other day and they were talking about teenage pregnancy and how to prevent it. Dr. Phil said that you should always talk to your kids about sex not just have one "Birds and the Bees" talk and that it should always be age appropriate. So Mikayla woke up and I thought I should talk to her about it. I started out with "when you want to be a Mommy and you have babies you need to make sure that you find a good boy who will be a good Daddy to your babies." She looked at me dead serious and said " I will get a Daddy that throws them way up high in the sky." I thought perfect she gets it. She needs someone who will be a Dad and have fun with her and their kids!! It was cute and I thought very age appropriate.

Happy Birthday to Me!!

Well I am 27 now. And I am lucky to say that I am on track with my life plan!! When I was in High school I wanted to be married by 22 have my first kid by 24 and my second by 26 and my third by 28. I wanted to have graduated from college and be a teacher. I wanted to have great friends, and be close to my family.
Well I was off by a little bit, I got married at 23 to the best Man in the world. And had my first child at 24 and my second at 26 but I don't think we will be having a third. (I want to take them to Disney world and I don't want any one to have to ride by themselves. Oh and I am not a very good pregnant person.) I graduated from UNC and I got my degree in early childhood education but I had my wonderful children and decided that I wanted to raise them!! I have wonderful friends near and far. Some I talk to everyday and others I only talk to through Blogging but they are all still close to me! And I am lucky enough to say that my family members are my friends. I am so happy to be 27 and loving life!! It is funny how things can work out for the best and how you can know what you want early in life. I will always tell my children to set goals and appreciate it when you reach them. I really haven't set any new goals other than to be the best Mom and Wife that I can be, and to always support my Husband and believe in my children.

Birthday Bowling

For my 27th Birthday we decided to go bowling. I haven't been in a while but Billy and I thought it would be fun. We both have been doing really well on the Wii so we thought what's the difference? Well I didn't really feel much of a difference, but Billy did. My first game I got a 143 and Billy got a 92. We were also playing with My Mom and Don and Amie and Scott and Lucas Logan and Mikayla. We all had a lot of fun. I was winning until Scott came along and got a 178 out of no where in the last 2 frames. Mikayla was a great Cheerleader and she really liked rolling the ball down the alley. All in all it was a fun time even though I didn't win! Like I tell the kids Winning isn't every thing!

Sitting up!!!

Well I think I can say that Seth is sitting up on hi own!! He is still very wobbly but he can do it! It is amazing how fast they grow. On one hand I think how is he almost 5 months old. And on the other hand I can't remember life with out him, I feel like he has been here forever. He is such a happy little boy and is growing like a weed. He is eating all of his veggies and some fruits. He loves squash and mangos. What a combo... with Mikayla she loved all foods and would eat them as fast as she could. Seth likes to taste them and when doing so his first bite always has a funny face that follows. He will eat it but if he doesn't like it then he takes a long time to eat it and makes his funny face almost every time. If he loves it then you can't give it to him fast enough and inbetween bits he will cry. It is so cool to see their little personalities.

Mikayla is also growing like crazy. Here vocabulary is outragous. Her new thing to do is ask "who's that?" to any thing and anyone in real life or on TV. I give her a name even if I know it or not and she repeats it. She also loves playing pretend. She plays with her new artic animals, and she plays "where's the baby" and she hides it somewhere in the house and then makes me take the Mommy animal and we have to go find the baby. It is cute becuase she can't wait for me to find it and bring me the baby. Her other play game is "Baby Kayla" she finds a pacifire and puts it in her mouth and says " Mommy I am baby Kayla" and I say "but your a big girl now not a baby." and she says " just pretend Mommy" It is so fun beaing able to stay home with them and have all of these stories.
