Updates on the boys!!










Iam sorry about my blog design I dont know what happened but I dont have time to fix it I can barley find time to blog haha.Anyways our boys...


Maddox is finally potty trained!!!!!He is 2 years and 7 months old. It took about 3 days and when he was ready he was ready!We still put him in a pull up for nap and night time.Shaun and I agree that when we go to public places we dont want the boys sitting on public toliets so at babies r us they have a mini toliet seat to take with you places it folds out to sit over any toliet or it folds like a potty chair (it comes with liners) for if ur somewhere with no bathroom its the BEST idea so we endded up getting one of those we havent tried it out yet but I will let you know! Maddox also thinks he is a BIG boy he carries his stool around everywhere in the house and wants to do everything himself.He loves to dance he will randomly come up to me and say "mama I wanta dance" so i turn on some music and we dance.Maddox has also started mimicing daddy he likes to have daddy's deodorate on and smell good stuff or he will want a hat like daddy's (Shaun loves it).I have started doing art/learning projects with him and he dose so good.I cant not believe how grown up he is getting.

We gave Maddox, Jazmyn's room cause she is only going to be here everyother weekend and it made more since for him to have his own room instead of being in our's.Need less to say he LOVES his room! He had a couple of hard nights sleeping in it at 1st but now he always wants me or daddy to come sit in his room and play.:) He still has'nt learned how to be gentle with his brother but I hate to say this but Jackson is used to it cause it dosent seem to fase him anymore haha poor guy.I always tell Maddox just wait till Jacks gets bigger.





Jackson Is almost 15 months old he is about 4-5 inches shorter then Maddox.He is uh oh,mama,pa pa (grandpa) dada, hot,and yay!Jackson has about 6 -7 teeth now. He LOVES his brother lately he has wanted to do everything Maddox does its so cute.He is so fearless and gets into everything,he almost gives mommy and daddy a heart attack at least twice a day.He loves being held by anyone that will hold him.He is a frantastic eatter I swear between the two of them they will eat us out of house and home.He is such s fun loving baby but man can this kid throw tantrums! He rolls on the floor while kicking his legs I have to admitt I try not to laugh!

Ready for a new beginning =)

Cyndy (Jazmyn's "mom") has made her choice without even asking Jazmyn what she wants.When school starts Jazmyn will go live with her mom and we will see her everyother weekend poor jazmyn when she heard this she started crying cause she wants to stay with us.As for Shaun and I it came as no surprise to us so we were ready for the news.

Now Shaun ,me and the boys are ready for a new beginning moving and no drama we really need to start giving everything we have to raising Maddox and Jackson.I know that sounds bad but our family has been stressed and all over the place over the last 7 months because of Cyndy and we have been putting all of are energy into a battle we new we were just going to lose but we did it for Jazmyn and hopefully Jazz will see that one day.Jazmyn is going to take most of her stuff to her mom's and we are going to give Maddox her room cause right now he is in our room (we are up in the loft he is below) so we can start packing boxes and putting them in our room.I have to addmit Iam really upset Jazmyn is living with her mom but Iam excited to have order inmy home and i feel like we are getting somewhere.

Funny stories.....



Maddox has been so funny lately.The other day Jackson figured out how to unlock the child safety lock on the cabinets below the sink in the kitchen.So we went to target and got a better lock.The next time Jackson went to the cabinets he could'nt get it open and was pounding on them so Maddox comes over and pulls on them for a second then he runs to his room and comes back with his saw and hammer and starts sawing on the cabinets while Jackson is pounding on them it was sooo funny.






Then today Maddox had his shovel and he wanted to go out front but I told him he had to go out back so after a few minutes of playing with the front door he runs to his toy box and starts taking everything out till he finds his fake keys then he runs over to the front door and tries to unlock the door with them and says "mama..keys...outside" haha.The reason I had kids priceless moments =)

Another baby.......

So mine and Shaun thoughts on having another baby are scattered.We would like to try and have a girl when the boys go to school.I think about it and wonder would that we selfish of us?.....I had 2 misscarriages before I had the boys and both boys were premature and the doctors still have no idea for the reasons behind both they did so many test even on both boys pleantas after they were born .Is it fair to possibly put another baby though that.I also worried through out both pregnancies if it wasnt misscarriage it was worrying about premature labor and it was soo hard to enjoy it.Needless to say I really didnt enjoy being prego to much worrying about your unborn child when you have reason to is no fun.
Gosh I would really like a little baby girl I think about how I want to be able to share my daughters pregnancy and getting married with her its just not the same with boys (I still love them to death!)I go back and forth.I say Iam DONE because of all the worring but yes later I would like another one.but do the cons out way the pros????

Silly boys = )


Our boys make our glummy day brighter,They have the best personalities . Maddox is so silly He was playing with his building blocks and Shaun asked him are you building the leaning tower of piza and he said "yea".Then we were walking and he was taking his time enjoying his surroundings and so we asked him if he wanted to sit (meaning in the stroller and he said yeah and sat down on the curb .Shaun and I were laughing so hard it was to cute and just now he went into his room and got his flip flops and put them on himself and said "wanta go outside" he is becoming so independent our little man has had the best personality .

Jackson is a little ham ...right now while daddy and Madd are outside he is standing here bangging on the sliding glass door laughing.We are also feeding him our food now no more baby food and when we give him something he takes it out of his mouth to show us and then eats it.when he throws a ball he lifts his arms and says "yay".He is going to be our little dare devil he will try ANYTHING.

I love how different the boys are and yet they come from the same jeans.

Bring on the heat!!!


1st of all it wont let me change my background so fall it stays lol


So there is sooo much to update on I dont even know where to start.

We got an offer on our house woo hoo!! So excited I am so ready to move into a bigger house! Its been a crazy month full of drama and frustration.

Jazmyn has come to live with us and she is SO happy.About 2 months ago she was so closed off and wasnt her self, Shaun and I had know idea how much she was carrying on her shoulders (explains all of the acting out from before) and now that its all out she is the happy little girl we have missed to much.I love you baby girl!!She also got awesome grades 3 A's 1 C and 1 B yay so proud!She has also started a chore chart at home cause she isnt great at remembering to take showers, brush her hair or teeth so we are hoping to get her in the habit of those things.She is the apple of the boys eye its great!

Maddox what can I say he is 2 but he listens to mommy and daddy so well and helps us a lot.He is talking in full sentences and knows most shapes and all body parts and counts to 5.The jealousy has just now reared its ugly head with Jackson but when he is mean to Jacks we put him in time out and when he comes out he says sorry its been working pretty good.Maddox loves to take his saw tool and saw everything yesturday he was sawing the couch in half lol.

Jackson-He is almost 13 months CRAZY! He says Hi,mama,dada and uh oh.He also is starting to throw fits when he dosent get his way gee wonder where he gets that from.He still is the sweetest baby ever and is really starting to LOVE Maddox they laugh at eachother and it seems like they communicate too haha.



Shaun and I are doing good I think we are both ready to move and turn a new leaf.I think it was fate Shaun and I met we equal eachother out after almost 5 years of being together it still gets better everyday.

This last month has been very stressfull for us and we cant seem to figure some people out sometimes I think you just need to realize you never will and to make yourself stronger for your kids and family you gotta move on from the negitive energy and do what is best for them.I know Iam a GREAT mother and I think some people take being a mother for granted.As a mother who had a really hard time having a baby it hits home more for me I think when I see or hear a mother mistreating their child.I JUST DONT UNDERSTAND SELFISHNESS WHEN YOU HAVE A CHILD.WHEN I HAD MY 1ST MISCARRIAGE MY SELFISHNESS WENT OUT THE WINDOW FOR MY LIFETIME !!! now ask yourself am I a great mother?Do you try your BEST?I think as mothers we need to ask ourselves that everynight when we go to bed cause I know I do.

UPDATES!!!

So a Little birdie told me I need to blog more hehe.I guess it's hard with the 2 boys and Jazmyn has been staying with us most of the time so its been crazy in this house.

We are trying to sale our house we have had 3 showings but no offersI want to get out of this niegborhood so bad!!With us having all 3 kids there is no space in this house shaun and I have no alone time which brings me to that on May 8th Kim is getting Married (my sister in law) so excited Maddox and Jazmyn are in the wedding and the reception is the the ponit hilton which Shaun and I have reserved a room for just us to stay the night YAY ALONE TIME!!1st time since we had Maddox yes Maddox!my mom God bless her in taking both boys for the night.
Then for those of you who dont know Jackson was born on Jazmyns birthday May 20th so they are exactly 10 years apart what are the chances of that!So we have Jacksons 1st party on the 22nd and we are celebrating Jazmyn's on the 15th with just a little get together.So its a crazy month!!

UPDATES-

Jackson is the apple of my eye such a good happy baby that just loves life! But.....he is going to be a bitter lol the other day Shaun caught him bitting his crib and being dark wood yup you guessed it bite marks everywhere ugh! Then yesturday I was standing in the kitchen and he crawled over and bit my toe lol granted he only has 3 teeth but man do they hurt!Besides that Jackson is great he is crawling,pulling himself up to stand and just started crusing along furniture all before 1 year I couldnt be happier!He is the complete oppisite of Maddox but I would'nt want it any other way.I love how you can have 5 kids and each one be soo different!

Maddox well he has been a really reatless little 2 year old only when we are home when we are out doing things he is the best 2 year old ever saying please thank you and never throws fits.Kid you not right when we walk in the door the whining and throwing fits starts ugh!!He is the most polite 2 year old ever even at 530am and he half asleep and he wants a drink he says please and thank you.He LOVES to dance and its the funniest thing ever to watch lol.

Jazmyn-Oh my where do I start....she has not been to good grounded really she has been lying and doing things she is not supposed to be doing.Its been a emotional rollercoaster with her,but we know how good of a girl she is we just need to guide her in the right direction.

Shaun is the greatest husband out there and it seems many of my girlfriends have some great hubbys too.Girls when you find a good man hold on to him tight and dont ever let go they are hard to find these days.I only hope my boys will grow up to be just like there daddy ...who would do anything for them and their mommy including workin his ass of so I can stay home with them.I love you baby!!
