Last week Trenton's class made Friendship soup for lunch. Trenton had to bring in tomato paste. That afternoon when he got home, Deborah (my mother in-law, aka Beelah) & I were sitting and talking to him about the soup. I was asking him if they all got to add in there ingredients in the soup and he told me that he added in the vegetables. Well Deborah asked him how they cooked the soup. He simply replied, "They cooked it in the crotchpot."
So there you have it. After we quit laughing we explained to him that it was a crockpot. Kids truly will say the funniest things!

Broke Camera
Thats right everyone my camera will not take pictures. And if it does they are blurred. And of course it had to break right before the holidays. And right before all of our firsts. I have only had this camera for a little over a year and I don't think I will buy that brand again anytime soon. So for now I will have to borrow my husbands one for work They just bought new ones and there old ones are still new. I just hope it can capture some good pictures.
I promise to try to catch up on some posts this week. Austin has started scouts which keeps us very busy and Addyson is learning something new every week. Oh and Trenton, well we are just trying to keep him out of trouble. I can't wait to get back to church. Addyson finally got her first dose of the flu shot and I can feel a little safer about taking her out. I am just trying really hard to keep her well and the boys.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We were very blessed to spend it with our families and some friends this year. I hope everyone has a wonderful week. And I promise to post again soon and hopefully with some pics.

4 & 5 Month Posts
Well my dear friends I am back. My life has been consumed of taking care of Addybell, taking care of two very busy boys, soccer, and life in general. I am loving more and more everyday the joys of being a stay-at-home mom. I am thankful that my husband has given me the opportunity to stay home and raise our children.
Well for a little catch up.
Addyson at her 4 month checkup weighed in at 14lbs and 6 ozs and was 25 1/2 inches long. She is a growing girl. She can roll over, loves her feet and hands, and enjoys being talked to. She loves having her brothers undivided attention. She loves saying "O"!!! She is still battling with reflux. She takes 5 ozs of formula with cereal every 4-6 hours. She is a very busy girl!!!! She also loves soccer. She goes to most of the games and insists on sitting in our laps facing the fields.
Addyson (aka AddyBell) is now 5 months old. She is still growing and changing everyday. She is finally getting some hair. Yippee! Hopefully in the next few months she can wear a bow without her headband. She is weighing around 16 lbs. We have changed meds again but now are stopping all meds for reflux. She has been eating 6 ozs of formula with cereal every 5-6 hours and sometimes she goes longer. She can sit up in your lap very good now. She is trying to crawl, so now she scoots across the floor to where she wants to go. Addybell is beginning to teeth. She is trying to cut two teeth on the bottom and hopefully they will come in soon. She has learned to take off her socks and at times will suck on her toe. She loves to move those feet and stays very busy. She loves her toys and loves playing on her pallet in the floor. However now it is hard to keep her on the pallet. And her big brother can now feed her a bottle and burp her. Yea Austin!!! And lastly, at 5 months she has her first cold. I am so thankful that she made it this long without getting sick. After having two boys with constant ear infections, I feel very blessed to have a little girl that so far has been very healthy.
I love these little stages she is in now. These are the best months and everyday she seems to be learning something new. And lastly, please pray that Addyson's reflux gets better. The pediatrician has scheduled us to see a Pediatric Gastro Doctor. We are scheduled to see him on December 7th. We are hoping that she will get better but so far the meds have done nothing. So we are off all meds and are just going to see what happens. She has been my only child that gets choked, and it is very scary. Hopefully when we start food this will help.
I will post pictures soon. I hope everyone enjoys there week.

Dear bloggy friends...
I am so sorry that it has been weeks since my last post. I have been so busy working, taking the boys to soccer, taking care of a 4 month old, and trying to still take care of my house that my blog has not been my priority. I am so sorry. I promise to update you all soon. I may even post a few pics.
After next week my life should slow down just a little. My part-time job now will be on an as needed basis. I loved making a little extra money, but I also love being home. And Addyson is at such a fun age that I want to spend every second I can soaking it in. And my two boys are becoming such great soccer players. Trenton has kicked a few goals...Yea Trenton. And Austin has surprised me and has become great on defense. He plays offense occasionally and almost kicked his first goal last night, but the whistle blew. I am so proud of both of them, Austin's team is undefeated; and Trenton's (Danny's) team has lost one. (Danny's team has had several players out with the flu, and of course they were our best players.)
I promise to update you all soon. Addyson had her 4 month checkup and I will post some soccer pics. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I also hope everyone enjoys Fall Break. I can't wait to spend a little time with the boys, and I know Addyson is ready to have them home for a few days.

Addyson at 3 Months
Well our little girl is 3 months old now. Well she is actually almost 4 months I am just a little behind on posting. She is getting so big. She is outgrowing her 0-3 months clothes now. She loves her brothers and they adore her. She laughs at them now and it is so sweet. They seem to get her to laugh more than we can. She is still eating about 5 ounces every 3-4 hours but will go about 5 -6 hours if she takes a nap. She loves attention and loves to be talked to, and has to have Daddy especially in the evenings. She is interacting more and more. She loves her hands and usually would rather have them in her mouth than her sass (paci). She is pushing up more and more on her belly, I still believe she will be our first to crawl and walk. She sleeps thru the night, and usually goes to bed by 9. Oh and she may be just a little spoiled. :)
Our little Addyson is growing too fast. I am so thankful that I get to have so much time with her and the boys. What a blessing it is to have our sweet family!

Lost Memory Card
My wonderful husband took my memory card out of my camera and layed it on our kitchen counter. And guess what, it got legs and walked off. Or should I say two little fingers got it and hopefully I will find it soon. It has lots of good pics on it that I need to have and I need to post. Like for instance, Trenton & Austin first day of school; Trenton's first soccer practice, and Addyson's 3 month old shots.
I love my husband dearly but sometimes he makes me mad. And of course, he doesn't think that it is a big deal. That card holds precious memories and I need that card, I want that card. Hopefully I will find it soon, very soon. I guess this mama will be cleaning the boys room this week and hopefully finding my memory card. I can say that I don't think my hubby will touch my memory card again, or if he does he will know where he needs to put it so that it doesn't get legs and walk off.
I hope everyone has a wonderful week. We are still busy with soccer, school, work, and loving every single minute we get at home.

Shopping with coupons
I have been shopping with coupons for a few months now, and every week I save a little more. Today was my best day so far. Today I saved $46.42 at Kroger. So I guess you are wondering what I paid, well I paid a grand total of $49.95. I almost saved 50% off my grocery bill by just using coupons. I have found a few new sites that you can add coupons to your Kroger card, then you can use your coupons on top of those coupons. Yesterday I took a few minutes to look at the sales paper and look at my coupons and see what I needed, or what I could stock up on. I was able to get a box of cereal , 2 cans of crescent rolls, 2 cans of biscuits, and 2 cans of cinnamon rolls for free. It may take a few extra minutes each week out of schedule to make my shopping list and sort thru my coupons, but it is oh so worth it at that checkout counter.
Keep checking back and I will give you a few sites that you can use to add coupons to your shopping cards, or sites that will help you with saving a little money.
Oh, and please pray that this fever bug leaves our house soon. Trenton came down with it Sunday, and was out of school Monday-Wednesday. Austin came down with it Thursday night and was out of school today. Please pray that Addyson does not catch this, the dr. said it would not be a good thing if she catches it even though they know the boys have a virus. So far the boys have been really good about staying away from her. I just pray that we can get this bug out of our house and not into any of yours.
