WARNING! GRAFFIC CONTENT

So in the eight years that I have been a mother I thought I had experienced it all by way of bodily fluids. I was soooooooooooo wrong........













Yes that is poop sprayed all over my walls and floor! Sweet little Sadie had not gone number 2 since Friday, so last night I gave her half a dropper full of prune juice to get things flowing. As I held her, cradling her little bum in my hand she let out a huge grunt and poop squirted out the side of her diaper. And I'm talking full force super soaker blast! This girl has given me a run for my money regarding poop stories. It's all cleaned up now and things smell fresh again. Ahh, never a dull moment in this house. And just now Ainsley has informed me that she is stinky, yay:(

Alyssa's Ultimate Fantasy

I meant to post this a while ago, but a bunch of excuses later here I am now just writing about it. My friend Alyssa's birthday was a few weeks ago, she has this charming obsession with tissue paper. Hey we all have one obsession or another(I have quite a few). At parties or showers of any sort she will neatly fold all the tissue paper from each persons gift so they can reuse it later. My friend Lyndie came up with an awesome idea to surprise her on her birthday. So me, Lyndie and our friend Jennifer gathered all the tissue paper we had to do this...
Sorry Alyssa I had to
You know you're loved when your friends go to so much trouble to fill your car full of tissue paper and set off two car alarms in the church parking lot during service. We love you Alyssa and hope your birthday was special!

Avery's Birthday

So our sweet little girl turned five on Monday. She wanted her haircut, so on her birthday I took her to get it done. I searched around for places that had prices for kid's cuts and after calling a few places found that I wasn't going to pay any less than $25.00. I'm sorry but for a child's haircut that just seemed outrageous to me so I found this cosmetology school that only charged five bucks! I was so excited(hey with six kids these types of things excite you) so we loaded up and went down there. It turned out so adorable and she absolutely loves it. She might be getting a slight ego as well, because she constantly wants to look in the mirror and she says she looks soooo cute! But all in all we'll let her have her moment to shine and then nip it in the butt if it gets out of hand,lol. So anyways she's super excited to be five, she's been telling everyone including Sadie.


She is loving Pre-K, she is learning a lot. For her birthday she got to bring in a special treat(cupcakes of course) and she was the "star of the day" which means you get to bring something for show and tell. My friend Kayla who works at the preschool snapped these pics of her(thanks Kayla).
Avery and her teacher Miss Amy

We just had a family party at home and had a pretty little cake for her.A sweet little party for a sweet little girl, Happy Birthday Baby doll! We love you!

Take a look at what my friend Alyssa did for me on Monday! Aren't they so precious, she truly has a gift for photography. And I'm so excited she used Sadie as her model. If you'd like to see the rest of her pics take a look at her lovely blog http://www.talleyfam.blogspot.com/2009/09/scrumptious-sadie-lynn.html
Thank you Alyssa, I love you!

First day of school

Today the kids started school, Prestin is in 2nd grade, Tatum is in 1st and Avery is in Pre-K(she just missed the cut-off for Kindergarten). It was a little odd to have only three kids for a few hours, I almost didn't know what to do with myself. Then I came to my senses when I realized the three I had were the ones that required the most work! So anyways the first day went well for all, except Madi who was upset she didn't get to go to school. And everyone seems to have very nice teachers. So here's some pics of them this morning, and I must say that we have very beautiful children!
Couldn't leave Madi and Ainsley out.

Sweet Sadie

Thank you!

I had a really wonderful birthday, I truly felt very blessed (and a little spoiled) from the out pour of love I received from all my friends! My friend Connie made me this very yummy cake, she even made the whip cream from scratch! The night before my birthday our friends, David and Michele took us out to dinner and we had the best time. Thank you to everyone for making me feel so special, God has given me the very best gift in having friends like you.

Sweet Sadie
