"Throughout our lives, we must deal with change. Some changes are welcome; some are not. There are changes in our lives which are sudden, such as the unexpected passing of a loved one, an unforeseen illness, the loss of a possession we treasure. But most of the changes take place subtly and slowly. Day by day, minute by minute, second by second we went from where we were to where we are now. The lives of all of us, of course, go through similar alterations and changes. The difference between the changes in my life and the changes in yours is only in the details. Time never stands still; it must steadily march on, and with the marching come the changes. This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now. Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family. One day each of us will run out of tomorrows. " Thomas S. Monson

The End of 1st Grade for Kaylin....

My "Tiny for just a minute" stage is fading so fast with this handsome boy of mine. I cant believe he is out of FIRST Grade already and on to the new adventure of SECOND Grade. He has loved first grade so much, he has learned more then I could have ever even imagined he would...bless those school teachers they are just awesome!
He is reading right on level, he is a WIZ kid for sure...super at math and spelling.. he did 11 weeks in a row of 101% on his spelling test (he did more but these were when we started keeping track and they were straight in a row). He had such a great teacher and we will miss her so much, she did wonders for our little kaylin!
He loved school, he loved being with all his awesome friends ( we are so lucky to live here and have SOOO many sweet little boys around us), and he really loved getting to eat lunch at school and having 3 recesses!
On his last week of school they did a field day with lots of fun games, ate sack lunch with their teachers, cleaned the class and had a blast....the last day of school they celebrated kaylin "UN-birthday" since his is in the summer and he LOVED it...we brought cup cakes and sang happy un-birthday to him!

A good saying by one of my favorite's!....

A good friend of mine (stacy) had this quote on her blog and I Loved it:

“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he’s been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to just be people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is like an old time rail journey…delays…sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling burst of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.”

Khailo turns Two Months old...

Today My little Khai turned two months old. I really cant believe how time is flying by. with 3 kids it seems to be going by much faster, we are always busy around here and days seem to just fly by, unless im deathly tired then they seem to crawl!
Khai is a really good baby for the most part, we went through our few weeks of a little bit of colic and his bowels forgetting how to function...ya that was a lot of fun!
He was sleeping about 5 hours at night at a time if not 6 or 7 but the past week he forgot how to sleep as well lol, he got his shots yesterday so last night was not such a great night for us but we manage cause he is just the cutest!

Here are his two month stats and some pictures:

WEIGHT- 11 lbs 8 oz
percentile- 47%

HEIGHT- 23 1/4 in
percentile- 64%

head circumference- 15 1/4 in
percentile- 23%

From his two Week chk up he is up 27% for weight, 39% for height, and 2% for his head!

He is much much bigger then the other two boy were at this age...he will for sure be our tall kid of the family!!
I LOVE this little boys smiles he gives me all day..he is SUCH a big smiler and has been pretty much since he was born!




I saved the best picture of the day for last...hahaha LOVE it!


Happy Two Months my sweet heart boy!

good advice!

Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib, not from his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal! Under the arm to be protected, & next to the heart to be loved.
