#3 is on the way!

yep that's right we are pregnant again!!! been so crazy around here i never put the news on here! we are due july 12 and both girls seem excited, kinsley has a better idea of what we are talking about but neither one has any clue whats about to happen!!! we are super excited and can't wait! :)

adley is getting so big so fast!! she is saying all sorts of words and can point to her eyes ears, mouth, nose hair head, and belly. she will try to repeat anything you ask her. she is a stinker with people at first and has an attitude for sure, but onse she warms up she is a love bug! today she is actully 17 months old and i can't even belive it! time flew by. i haven;t been so good at blogging but life is crazy busy with 2! we will be doing 18 month pics next month so hopefullythey tune out good!!! i amthinking naked with a tutu!

vaca

pictures form our beach vaction in august to virgina beach! they are kinsleys 3 yrs and adleys 15 month pictures. we had a wonderful vactiona nd sooo much fun onthe beach. both girls LOVEd the water and waves and sand and could have stayed all day.

 

 one of my all time favs of kinsley!!!!!!

 we didnt get to many of just adley cuz she was cranky!

in this ic k was throwing a ball to some random persons dog. it was a black lab and kinsley loved it! maybe someday we can get her one!

15 month

ok so it took me ages to post this but whatever!!!!! this is adley at 15 months old, she is such a stinker! she is talking alot these days saying, mama, daddy, cup, cookie, dog, thank you, please, and she tries to repeat tons of other words too!  she loves to push kinsley's buttons and its not that hard to do, so those two already fight all day long! i don't really step in unless someone is gonna get hurt, they have to figure each other out at some point. Adley is ruinning all over the place and growing like a weed. she is up in the 75% in height and weight! she is a lover and will hug and kiss us all the time but can be sooo shy around new people. altho she warms up quick and loves on everyone eventually. right now she is making the funniet stink face, i hope to get a picture of it, it is soo funny! she loves high 5s and trying everything her sister or we are doing. she is able to follow simple directions and it just amazes me every time! she is super smart already!!! just like her sis she loves the water and bath time. we went to the beach and she just loved the waves and sand! 
and if you can believe it she is louder then kinsley!!!! yikes!

update

life is busy with 2!
adley is so close to walking, and can not jump on the trampoline, ride for ride on toys, and stand for a few seconds all on her own! she is great at stairs too, well going up! but she knows she can't go down and just sits at the top crying till someone gets her!!! very cute! she is a climber to and loves to sit on the art table...kinsley used to do that all the time too, so weird!

kinsley is doing good too. in aug she will start her eval for special needs preschool. she NEEDS to qualify to get the help she and i need! she is so smart and can be a sweet little lady but she can also be very aggressive and have meltdowns you wouldn't believe. she loves so sing songs and dance with her sister. and she is loving the pool this summer. she wants daddy to let go and let her swim!!! ha so he did and she just sat there under water not moving. no tears tho she was so proud when daddy brought her back up! she loves it!

Adley loves the water too and so far has no fear! hoping to do swim lessons this winter with them again.

not much else right now! my babies are growing up fast :)

ADLEY IS 1

Little miss adley jane is 1. man time flies when you have a baby. we had a great party with family and friends and adley got spoiled!!! she loved her cake but took her time getting into it. by the end she was a happy camper all covered in cake :) she enjoyed opening presents but once she found a few she liked it was over and mommy had to do the rest while she played.

she is cruising like crazy and will hopefully be walking soon, she says "hi" for sure and i think mommy and daddy and tried to say lots of other things too but not quite sure what shes saying yet! she can be very demanding and has a temer for sure. she is also loves to get people to wave and will not quit yelling hi and hey till you say hi and wave to her! our favorite thing is her growl, she is always growling, "aghghghghghgh" and will echo with you if you do it back to her, this game is played all day and even kinsley plays it with her...LOVE IT! she loves kinsley and they play better and better each day.

overall she is just perfect! i am a lucky mama to have 2 of the best girls around!

DISNEY

DISNEY!!!!!

High Five for disney world!

Kinsley's first pig tails!

Sleeping with grandma and pop!

one of many family photos! this is at MGM

Adley's first merry go round! she was scared at first but ended up loving them!

playing at the honey i shrunk the kids playground. k and a had so much fun here!

we took the girls to disney with gma sue and pop joe and aunt kelsey and uncle adam. we had a great week and kinsley loved in. in fact she is crying now because she wants to go see her friends again! so sad :(  she got over her fear of the characters after while and actually hugged donald and daisy...her favs!  it was so fun watching her be brave and ride the rides..overall it was a great a week!

teeth!!!

finally adley got the top two teeth!!! she was teething in disney which wasn't so fun but they finally broke thru the gums!!!!

11 months

adley is almost 1!!!! she is amazing at 11 months old. she is definitely saying hi and waves and everyone she sees.  she loves playing with cars and balls and putting things in and taking things out of containers. she can sit and just put the blocks in the box for the longest time. she still adores kinsley but is learning to fight back and gets her shots in. she is a bit of an antagonizer too! should be interesting as she gets older. she is able to stand for a few secs without support and is cruising all over the place. she can go up the stairs without help but coming down is another issue! overall she is growing and developing well and is becoming such a big girl. can't wait for her bday party!!!

quotes from k

"mommy those not daffodils those flowers, you silly mommy!"

"those not dandelions, those tigers."

"orange flowers", (mommy says yes those are tulips), "yes mommy those tulips!"

on our walk yesterday, she is so funny!

10 months!

Adley Jane is 10 months old. wow! she is so big and does so much now. she is cruising all the furniture and can get from the couch to the ottoman. she is standing really well when holding something and can let go with one hand. she will take a few steps if we are holding her fingers. she has a lot to say too! she babbles none stop and when kinsley sings i swear adley sings too and bobs her head or shakes her butt...soooooo funny. she loves music just like kinsley! she says mama, dada, and hi. but they are just basic sounds no good enough to call a first word i am very particular with the first real word!

she is still nursing alot, i am hoping that goes down soon. she eats like a full grown man so i don't know why she is hungry ever! she loves mostly everything but goes in spurts of what she will eat. she can be a turd and has quite the temper! it is so funny when she is pissed and turns red and grunts and scream while making little fists!!!

adley love love loves kinsley. kinsley is still very rough with her but just wants so badly for adley to play like she does. so adley gets knocked down and pulled around alot but is usually laughing, it drives mommy crazy tho! soon they will be able to play good and adley will sit on kinsley's face!!!

overall adley is amazing. i don't know where the time goes!

she was moving the blind to see outside!


bath time...clean baby!

9 mon 2.5 yr appts

we finally had the girls dr appts. they both checked out healthy!
adley was 17 lbs 9.5 oz, 28 1/4 inches and kinsley was 31.5 lbs, 36.5 inches!

both are still on the tall side, kinsley taller then adley and adley on the heavier side then kinsley.

to compare the two at 9 mons kinsley was 16 lbs 3 oz and 28.5 inches. so adley is a pound + bigger but a little bit shorter!!

9 months!

adley is 9 months old!!! were did the time go. so weird how 9 months of pregnancy takes forever and the first nine months of their lives goes so fast...no fair!

adley is growing fast and moving like crazy. she is pulling up, cruising, doing stairs, babbling, and showing preference for what she wants and doesn't want! she is going to be a bruiser, she loves wrestling with kinsley already. she growls and fake laughs all the time, it is the funniest noise though, not like a haha but a growling deep throat noise...so funny! oh and yes the girl can scream and does often...ear piercing screams!

she is eating all sorts of food now and loves it all, she eats just like kinsley did...we will go poor just trying to keep them fed!

its so crazy how different the girls are even at this age, and even before really...really from birth! they are good sisters tho!

adley

this girl is on the move! she is pulling up like crazy today and trying to stand, she is able to get over just about any obstacle too including me! so crazy how fast she is gaining these skills!

pre-k day 1

kinsley going to prek on her first day!!! she loved it and is still doing well. she loves her backpack too! she comes home talking about her aid amy all the time and they tell me she is making friends there! she has fits when we leave her but they don;t last long, well they have only happend so far when dad dropped off!!!! but she is a daddy's girl!

update on us all

here is a huge update on each of us.

brandon: still working at kroger and going to school, he is very busy with 3 classes this semester and we see him very little, we miss him and he misses us but it will all pay off in the end, we hope!

me: hanging in there dealing with the two crazies everyday! pretty much a single parent these days! going to PT 2x a week for my back and seeing much improvement!

kinsley: she just started prek, is a 2 yr old class at the board of dd. she will now get her OT and other therapies there rather then me taking her in or them coming to the house, we are so excited and so far so good she seems to enjoy it. although i hope her true colors show soon. she has some major behaviors we are battling right now, more then just terrible 2s. she is banging her head and body off anyone and anything, also covered in bruises, biting her self, and having insane tantrums. we are working hard on helping her and trying all the interventions i can think of or other people offer up. she is also having a little language processing delay. she isn't always using the words she means to use or understanding fully what we are saying which causes frustration and usually leads to a major fit. it is very hard to tell since she has a high vocabulary and talks all the time. but just cause she is talking doesn't mean she understands what she is saying! so other then those issues she is doing great and can be the sweetest girl around. saying things like "thanks you so much!" and "i love you so much" too cute. i just hang on to the sweet moments we get in the day!

adley: wow she is growing up fast. she is now 8 months old and crawling pulling up to her knees and a few times her feet, but then she fell! she is determined to get where she wants and what she wants! she thinks kinsley is hilarious and over all is a happy baby. she eats just like kinsley did and loves it all! we call her our little bug but she is bigger the kinsley our moose was at this age! she still hasn't figure out how to get from her belly to sitting tho, more determined to get to her feet! she is waving and kissing and i swear at times she has said hi, but who knows!

all in all we are doing great and getting ready for the real spring and summer to get here!

poop face! poor girl got constipated after starting food!!!!

8 months old!

my little lady will be 8 months old tomorrow!!! she is so wonderful and amazing, i can't even believe how much she is moving around, spinning, army crawling, lunging, crawling...its crazy!!!! she is smart too, already signing more and definitely has preferences. she loves pulling the book bin out and eating book,s, and she likes to chew on the play remote we gave her and a few other toys. she is still a watcher and sees everything, she laughs all the time and does this funny hard laugh that is almost like a growl...very cute and funny!!! i think she knows she is funny tho :)

she is loving food and eats tons of things now, too much to list but has liked everything and eats like a full grown man! (my kids eat)

now if she could just sleep thru the night...ya still up every night for any number of feedings, we have tried to have her cry it out but she just wont and after awhile we just have to get her or kinsley will wake up and then we are in double trouble!

she is our sensitive baby tho and hates being left in a room, loves being held, and notices change. i had my hair pulled back in a pony tail, first time since its been so short, and adley would not come to me and when i picked her up she freaked out, i gave her to daddy and she calmed right down, i ended up having to take my hair out and show her it was me and then she was fine!!! wow!

she is just amazing ans growing up so fast. seems like she has been her much longer then 8 months tho! what dd we do with just kinsley???

Clapping and crawling

Adley is clapping and or signing more...depends on the context!!!! (jan 14th)

she has also officially crawled!!!! four little crawls and then kinsley hugged her and they both went to the ground!!!! but she crawled :)

waving and kissing

little miss adley is waving and kissing. we have thought for a while she was waving but it is for sure her "hi" wave now!!! so cute too and she gets so excited about it :) she will also open mouth kiss you if you ask for kisses and pucker up!!!! growing up so fast, she is super close to crawling too, she dives across the floor and can get anywhere she wants even without crawling!

christmas

christmas was great. the girls seemed to like the presents from santa, adley liked opening things and eating the paper. kinsley says "oh my goodness" to just about everything she opens...so funny and cute. i love that one! i will have to post pics soon, its just harder to find time to sit and do this blog these days! we still have christmas with my parents and then we will be done with everyone!

oh yes and on christmas brandon dressed like santa and came to see the kids, ours and tonias. they were so excited and kinsley was scared to death, she ran and hid and then clung to tony screaming for her daddy. it was so sad but so funny! she is not a fan of costumes...disney should be fun! we are working on it with masks but who knows when they can';t take them off in front of her how she will do! it was an awesome night tho! and rece and carmine were just amazed!

adley

this girl is on the move, not yet crawling but getting on all fours and lunges forward! she also "swims" across the floor. very determined to get to what she wants, any way she can! she is loving food and likes everything we have tried so far. she has an ear infection right now but the meds should kick in soon, we actually thought kinsley was sick but turns out adley was.
