New Updated

Ok, I am going to just update really FAST. LOL



In the past week a few things have happened and I hope and pray that until Christmas it calms down PLEASE.



First we had Daxton's Birthday, So we took him to McDonald's for lunch and my two sisters and their boys came with us. He wanted to show off his Crown that his teachers gave to him.

Then Taylor came home with a Principals Award. I am so proud of her she has been struggling this past few years in school. And for her to come home with this, It really made her feel AWESOME. Good Job Taylor.

Then We Finally had the two boys combined Party. It was a great turnout. First time ever we had more friends than family. Tayton had a blast playing with all the kids from his class. Since I was entertaining the kids I didn't get a chance to take any pictures of them blowing out the candles. Thanks to everyone that came and celebrated this day with our family.

My Savings at Fry's

Ok I am not going to take a picture of everything that I bought because I filled up the entire back of my suburban and then part of the floorboard in the middle section. So needless to say I would be here all night downloading pictures. But I do want to thank Connie for allowing me the honor of learning how to clip and print and transfer coupons. I wasn't new to that part but It really helped me out a ton with her new blog. And for those of you that don't know about it check it out and you will love it as much as I have. http://PENNIESSAVED.blogspot.com/

Voting

WOW Another four years came and gone. I can't believe how fast my life is just flying by. Well, I waited for Devin to get off work this time and we went together. It was so different than four years ago. There wasn't a line. Not one person in front of us, crazy yeah. I will next time do the mail in ballot so I don't have to drive my lazy butt down to the place. LOL. Anyways I hope that everyone checked up on the Candidates and voted for them for the right reasons and not racial nor religion. This is our country and we want it ran by someone who will guide us to a better future for our children.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAXTON #3
















I can't believe that it has already been another year. My kids are getting so big, well not really just older LOL.










Daxton has been our happy little boy. When he was born he has swallowed the fluid during his birth and was kept in the nursery for the first 6 hours. Mom was a complete wreck. I wasn't able to hold or even touch him. Thank goodness he finally got it all up and turned out too be a healthy little boy. Then, when he was getting older and was such a quiet baby Mom and Dad kept thinking yea we finally got a quiet baby, but little did we know that he really had speech delay. When he was about 18 months old he wasn't even chattering like a six month old baby should do. Then when he hit two they had a speech therapist coming to our home once a week for about 6 months and then when he hit 2 1/2 he finally reached the 6 month age bracket for speech. Yeah. The milestones that don't seem much too normal kids are huge for him. Now he is in a special Ed preschool for his speech and he is doing amazing and they aren't sure how much longer that he will be allowed to stay there because if he starts talking in two and three word sentences he will be over qualified for that program. So we are really excited for his major improvement in such a small time.
Daxton has always been a special boy. At a very young age he was unloading the dishwasher, washer and the dryer. He has always had a fascination for garbage. He loves to help people and has OCD (like his mother) and has to always throw away his trash. Very clean boy(except for his face) A little story when he was about 2 we were at church and we pulled out a wipe to clean him after eating snack during sacrament, He kept freaking out that he had to find the garbage and throw it away. So, thinking that it was right at the end of our row I okayed him to go, well I finally realized after hearing him calling out "garbage, garbage, garbage" over and over walking around the chapel seeking for a garbage. Remember it was supposed to be quiet. But he was so proud of himself for finding the garbage and throwing it away. What a handsome boy. He always has the biggest cheese face on him. Now that he is learning to talk he is so proud of himself. When he is trying to get your attention he will call your name until he can see you, Then when he see's you he says "I was calling you". Well the best that he can say it. It is the cutes thing ever.
Well I hope that you have a special day today little man, Mom and Dad love you alot.
