Coffee...

Okay so I have been neglecting my blog here for a few days. Not on purpose..well okay I've been addicted to facebook lately. Can't help it...its fun! Anyway...Kids and sleep... My darling little five year old just doesn't want to sleep...which makes mommy a very tired person. Now that the baby, Maddie, is sleeping through the night, Kenzie just doesn't seem to want to sleep or keeps waking up. I've tried a radio, night light, regular light, fan, cute stuffed toys, angel toys, books, a bottle of water...etc. And the girl still wakes up. So not sleep as much as she should she is one moody little diva...unless the camera is out and then its all smiles and poses...my little camera ham!! Any and all ideas to get her to sleep through the night or similar stories let me know....

But for now...

All hail the power of coffee!!! So the kids have done some funny stuff the past couple of days that I will blog about in a later post. But for right now I am just going to sit back with my coffee and try and get my brain to function!!

Fireworks...

A belated Happy Independence Day to those who reside with me in the good ol' US of A. Yesterday was full of fireworks! Around here people started setting them of at about 7pm. The kids LOVED it!! Kenz was a jumping bean on the porch...and of course she doesn't have a small voice but a loud one and was YELLING at the top of her lungs "Look another one and another one." We are on the second floor of our apartment and well I thought she was going to jump off the porch. I had to keep calming her down. Now my science junkie of a son, Gav, kept asking how they made that shape and how did they have different colors...etc.. The boy is FULL of questions. Thank god for Myth Busters and the Discovery Channel!! We had answers!! And Maddie (the baby), her eyes couldn't have gotten any bigger she LOVED the red ones. She was even coooing and goooing!!!!!!!! So here are a few of our 4th pics!! Enjoy!!
