Updated....finally, I will try to be better at blogging.

WOW......Talk about being a huge slacker. I've just been so overwhelmed with work and doing the mom thing that I didn't have much time to update. I have so much to update you all on since my last blog in may.
Kaydence and the boys having a blast in the kiddies pool at aunt Ashley's house.

Kaydence loving her uncle Jordon!

We had a blast at the 4th of July party at Church and then carried it over to my aunt Debbie's house. We went swimming in her pool, its crazy cause kaydence hated the big pool last year and this year she loves it.

she loved floating in her mermaid tube. she could float around for hours if i let her.

Kaydence and Jayden chilling with Heather. Heather is now a good friend of the families....she is almost like a sister to me. We were sad to see her leave for school but she might be coming back. Yay!!!!

Miss Kaydence at church with the cutest outfit on ever. I love shopping for my little angel!!!! So about this other pic....we love watch the TLC channel and the show toddlers and tiaras comes on. I think its so cute to see these girls all dressed up. I want to try it with kaydence, not enter her in a pageant but to just dress her up. She has the attitude like the girls on the show and i think she would fit right in. haha So now back to the bum pic, she does the pose where she twists her body and does a kissy face and sticks her bum out. When i asked her to do the pose she did is backwards so i got the back shot and not the front. This little girl and so cute, she is a definite girl through and through. I LOVE IT!!!!

Went to the Shawnee Rodeo, and was kinda bummed about it. Its nothing like the rodeo's out in utah and idaho. i just remember then being longer. I wanted to see more bull riding, thats my favorite part.

My little cowgirl!!!

We took the kids to the rodeo on Saturday afternoon. Not long after we go back home, Ashley and I decided that we were going to hang out with our friend Heather. She is staying up in Emmus with her brother for a little while, until she figures out what she is doing about school. So right after we picked her up we were headed north on lehigh st up in allentown. when all of a sudden we see this car coming around a curve way to fast, she hit the metal grated bridge and lost all traction and control of the car. She swerved back and forth and almost hit the car in front of her but instead she turned the wheel and hit us. As you can see in the pic below the damage that was done to Ashley's car.

At first we all felt fine....until the shock wore off. The girl from the other car took an ambulance to the hospital, she didnt look like she got hurt but who knows. Josh came to pick us up and us girls decided to just get checked out just incase. We all started to get a little sore and the docs explained that we just strained muscles in our shoulders and back. That if we just keep heat on them and take it easy it will eventually go away. Our doc was extremely good looking and we didnt even have to wait long at all to get in and bee seen. From now on I will be going to the Lehigh Muhlenburg hospital. They were the best!!!

Well, I have to admit I've been really bad at taking pics let alone updating my blog. We had alot going on this summer. Kaydence and I took a trip down the the Philly Zoo with my Aunt Debbie and her daughter Lizzie. We had a blast, Kaydence loved the monkey's. As we were eating we had little visitors. A little duck and this nasty goose. He was so nasty that he snatched Kaydence's chip and got her finger too. It was so funny but poor Kaydence she was so scared.

We also took a trip down to visit Leah and Saige, before the new baby arrived and before they moved back out to utah. It was quite an eventful weekend. Kaydence decided it would be fun to push poor Saige down the stairs. She was not even afraid to admit she did it. They made up pretty quickly by watching some tv together. We took the girls to applebee's. We took the girls to the beach. It was kaydence's first time and she didnt like the water that much. Not unless i was holding her. I think she could have played in the sand for hours. What was so upsetting about this trip was the fact that i left the camera in the car and didnt get any cute pics of the girls on the beach. What a bummer.

This summer I decided that I wanted to plant a garden. Nothing better than fresh veggies from your own garden. I planted some peppers, squash, zucchini, green beans, cucummber, and tomatoes. I even planted grape tomatoes for Kaydence. Which she would help me pick, she came around with her basket and as im filling it up she was eating them.

There will be more pics to come of our Zoo trip!!!

She's just so darn cute!!!!

This is a few days late but Happy Memorial Day to everyone!!! haha My family had a little BBQ at my aunt Debbies house. It was great, we let the kids run around her big yard. They really needed to let their energy out being stuck inside cause its either raining or way to hot outside. Ashley and I decided to take pictures of the kids since they were all dressed in red, white and blue. I got a few shots of

kaydence before the battery died.

She is my little model. She was not listening to me but i have to say these pics turned out super cute. She has a little side pony tail and we found this flower (clematis) in the yard and it fit just perfectly.

HAPPY EASTER!!!!

THE KIDS HAD A BLAST DOING THE EASTER EGG HUNT. KAY WAS ACTUALLY FELL OFF THE BENCH WHILE TAKING PICS. ASHLEY GOT A PIC OF HER IN MID AIR BUT I DIDNT WANT TO POST THAT. FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE MYSPACE YOU CAN CHECK IT OUT ON THERE. HAHA I'M SO GLAD I HAVE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL, THAT LOVES TO DRESS UP AND GET HER HAIR DONE.

SOME OF YOU MAY KNOW THAT I WENT TO UTAH LAST MONTH. I WENT TO MY FRIEND NYCH RECEPTION. HE KNEW THAT I WAS PLANNING ON COMING OUT FOR IT BUT HE THOUGHT I WAS JUST TALK AND I WOULDNT FOLLOW THROUGH WITH MY WORDS. WELL, AS I WALKED IN AND WENT DOWN THE LINE I CAME TO HIS WIFE FIRST (NEVER MET HER) AND HER FACE WAS LIKE AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW YOU. THEN NYCH LOOKED UP AND HIS FACE WAS SERIOUSLY PRICELESS. HIS JAW DROPPED AND HE WAS LIKE "NO WAY, ARE YOU SERIOUS.....NOOOO WAY" HAHA HE TURNED TO HIS WIFE AND SAID THIS IS GABBI. SHE KNEW WHO I WAS ONCE HE SAID MY NAME. I WAS SO GLAD I WAS ABLE TO SEE HIM DURING SUCH A GREAT MOMENT FOR HIM. THEY MAKE SUCH A CUTE COUPLE, IM SO MADE I DIDNT GET PICS I LEFT THE CAMERA IN THE CAR. :(

BUT MOVING RIGHT ON, I SPENT MOST OF THE TIME WITH ERIKA AND HER CUTE LITTLE FAMILY. I DID GET TO SEE MY GOOD FRIEND LAUREN AND HER HUBBY AND ADORABLE LITTLE GIRL. WHILE I WAS OUT THERE I RAN INTO AN OLD FRIEND OF MINE, HIS NAME IS DAVID. IT WAS SO WEIRD BUT GOOD AT THE SAME TIME. I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY WE DIDNT DATE BEFORE, BUT MAYBE SOMETHING MIGHT BLOOM IN THE NEAR FUTURE. HERE ARE SOME PICS OF OUR LITTLE ADVENTURE TO UTAH.

KAY GOT ALONG WITH ENOCH SO WELL, SHE NEVER LET HIM OUT OF HER SITE. ALWAYS GIVING HUGS AND KISSES. SHE ALSO REALLY LOVED EPHRAIM, SHE FOLLOWED HIM EVERYWHERE AND SHE WOULD CRY WHEN HE WOULD LEAVE AND GO TO BED. HAHA

HOW PRECIOUS ARE THESE PICS WITH THE TWO KIDS. SHE JUST PUT HER HEAD ON HIS LAP. HAHA AND THEM HOLDING HANDS RIGHT BEFORE WE LEFT UTAH.

I LOVE SHOES, I HAVE SO MANY ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY. NO LIE KAY IS SLOWLY BUT SURELY CATCHING UP TO ME. SHE HAS ALL KINDS OF SANDALS FOR THE SUMMER AND DRESS SHOES. BUT MY FAVORITE ONES HAVE TO BE THE ONES IN THE PIC BELOW. SO CUTE!!!!

The good times

Hey sorry for not posting on a regular basis. Im not good at this, i never know what to say. But here it goes....oh and this is all backwords so you might want to start from the bottom of this post.


Miss Kaydence had to go into surgery on Wednesday. As you can see in the pic above she has a small bandage on her ear. She was born with a sinus track on her left ear lobe and over time is collected dirt and oil which then caused a cyst. She she had the track and cyst removed. That was one of the hardest things to do, right next to the time I was visiting leah. lol But we wont get into that story. Lets just say we were in the ER from like 1am to 5am with a 104.5 temp. But you can see my baby girl is strong and pulled through that and the surgery just fine.

She was actually really nasty right after she woke up. They gave her these 2oz bottles and she downed 2 within 5min. And got mad and threw them, then she started smacking me. Oh that was so hard, i knew she had no idea what she was doing i just felt helpless.

Now she has her own bottle and is much happier.

What a trooper!!!!

My angel on New Years Eve. We had a good time at my sisters house, erika and enoch came over and after we put the kids to bed mom, ash, erika, and me played the game outburst. Heads up to those that ever play with me and erika, i'd recommend going on the other team unless your willing to lose. haha It was fun having erika there, it reminded me of our fun times before idaho and then when we were in idaho. lol

After christmas we all got the flu, this is our second round of it within 2 weeks. It hit Kay really hard.

Kay showing off her new hoody uncle jordy got her.

Jordon making his moves on Ashleys husband Marcos.

My mom made these pants and they turned out really cute, a little big but cute. We like matching them for christmas morning pics.

Pushing around her new baby doll in her new stroller. Sporting the santa hat!!!!

Showing unlce josh her new baby.

She loves this baby, she will kiss it and hug it so tight. She even makes that squeeze noise when she hugs it. So CUTE!!!

Its the first thing she went to when she walked in the room. She was so excited, she stopped at the door and made the biggest SIGH ever.

Christmas morning!!!

Ok so i gave Kay the bowl of cookies to put on her table. She decided that it was a good idea to give them all a good lick. She also dropped them all over the floor. So i knew not to eat them. But in the morning i noticed the cookies were gone. haha yup the uncles ate them. I told them about it which made them a little sick. But come on how funny is that, i couldnt resist not telling them about it.
