Friday, March 30th, 2007“Mommy you need to put those cactus in the desert!” ~ Kimberly She said this about my cactus garden that I have in my bathroom. I have had it in there long before she was born and will continue to grow it in there. Sorry Kimmie.
Picnic at the park
Thursday, March 29th, 2007Today we picked up Daddy from work and headed out to a nearby park for a picnic and playtime. It was a beautiful day and we had a great time. I love to see Bill interacting with the children. He LOVES to be crazy and jump around with them. He has such an energy and [...]
A princess?
Wednesday, March 28th, 2007“Mommy look a Princess” ~ Kimberly Said when walking through Albertson’s. The lady was wearing a pink skirt and pink blouse with blonde hair. She turned and let us know that Kimmie had made her day! *Note to self: Must find that pink outfit.
The Castle
Wednesday, March 28th, 2007There is a special castle that only one member of our family visits. It is in Kimberly’s imagination and she constantly mentions it. Anything anyone talks about she generally has at her castle and usually it is pink. It is the most interesting thing to see how vivid her imagination is. She talks about how [...]
Talking
Tuesday, March 27th, 2007On Monday we had Madeline’s interview with Early Intervention. We were hoping to get her speech therapy through the federal program. They found that Madeline is at a 30% speech development delay. Unfortunately the government does not see the need to intervene unless it is a 50% delay. Grrrr. We still have a glimmer of [...]
We messed up.
Tuesday, March 27th, 2007“Annie you are so cute” ~ Mommy “No, Mimi is!” ~ Annie Made my heart sink. Annie is super duper cute too. All three of the girls are the most adorable children on Earth to me. I was telling Bill about it at dinner. He told Annie that she was cute. She again said no, [...]
Back to real life
Sunday, March 25th, 2007It is never easy to go back to real life. I had a bead party on Friday night so I was out late that night as well. Today is the first day that I feel like I am not exhausted. The kids have been playing with their toys like crazy. Absence surely made their hearts [...]

Sea World quote
Saturday, March 24th, 2007“I need to pull up my sleeve so Shamu can see my bracelet. He likes it” ~ Annie Said while on our way to the Shamu show.
The Baby
Friday, March 23rd, 2007One thing I have realized on this trip is that Mimi loves being the baby. I have never met another child like this. Annie and Kimberly were always ready to move up to the next stage. They have always thought about what they would be when they were older. Focused on how big they had [...]
Our Day in LA
Friday, March 23rd, 2007Our last day of vacation was spent driving up to LA and hanging out in LA. We met another friend in Valencia for lunch at In and Out. It was nice to see them and enjoy some time with them at the William S. Hart park. Bill especially enjoyed this part of the trip. He [...]
Dinner in Westminster
Friday, March 23rd, 2007Some friends of ours invited us to dinner in their home. It was so nice to see them this trip. We saw them last year so it was neat to see how their children had grown over the year. We had a great time up there and are thankful for the friendships shared. On our [...]
Not Quite Warm Enough
Friday, March 23rd, 2007Our beach day was planned far in advance so when rain was predicted we headed out anyhow. Our friend Larry was going to meet us down there and then we would go to lunch. It was 57 degrees at the beach with wind. Bill wanted to leave before we even went, but the man knows [...]
Sea World ~ March 2007
Friday, March 23rd, 2007I dated this entry with the month because we bought the year pass since it was the same price as one day admission. I am sure we will head over there later this year. We had a nice time. We had seen all the shows before but it was still so much fun to watch [...]
Best Friends
Friday, March 23rd, 2007I think Annie and Kimberly have best friends. We met up with our friends from Idaho on our trip to Sea World. They have twin girls who are 2 months older than Annie and Kimberly. The girls adored each other. They were our next door neighbors at the hotel. It was so cute to see [...]
Annie’s free Spirit
Friday, March 23rd, 2007Our little Annie has always been a free spirit. We face great opposition in trying to train her to be more level headed. As mentioned before, she will just haul off and do something forgetting about the entire world around her. This trip was no exception. When taking Annie on a vacation one is always [...]
Vacation
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007We are really enjoying our vacation in San Diego. The kids have enjoyed seeing Shamu and Dolly the Dolphin again. They just love it at Sea World. We met our friends from Idaho here and they are so much fun. They have twin daughters about the same age as Annie and Kimberly and a baby [...]

Saturday, March 17th, 2007Tomorrow we are leaving to go to Sea World. If you see us cruising down the highway say hello. This is our new license plate. Now everyone can find us.
A new tankini
Friday, March 16th, 2007I finally found bathing suits that the girls and I both can agree on. They are the cutest little tankinis. Kimberly has Disney Princess, Annie has Nemo, and Mimi has Little Mermaid. they fit them perfectly and look so cute. Kimberly was so excited to get a “bra.” She is so funny about bras and [...]
How did I do it?
Thursday, March 15th, 2007I am often asked this question. How did I live through 7 failing pregnancies and only 2 live births? How did I keep going when it looked like everything was going nowhere? The answer is fairly simple . . . I kept going so that I could get here. Here to the point where I [...]
