AAHHHHH

Feels good to update the blog. Our computer crashed on us early September and I wasn't able to update for a while, but here we are and it feels good. We have been doing well adjusting to three kids. Nola is helpful 30 % of the time, but hey 30% is better than nothing. Since my early September post we have blessed Kayla, had visits from family and now as of yesterday Halloween is over as well as Elk season. Devin did finally shoot his Elk on the 27th. UGH October has been a long month. Nola is anxiously awaiting her third birthday later this month. She asks us every day if it's her birthday. She is getting so big and tries so hard to be a good big sister. Myla is a little hurricane and keeps me busy. Example of one day with her is pooping on my carpet, ripping library books and that is all with the usually messes.A one year old is definitely harder when you have a infant at home. Kayla still just eats and sleeps which is what I need her to do right now until the hurricane get's a little older. Devin and I are just trying to raise our baby girls and make time for each other. I am not sure which one is harder. We are so blessed. Here is our update.

Kayla blessing September 2, 2012

Devin's mom made Kayla's dress. Another one with pieces from my wedding dress. When I came up with the idea I never would have thought that I would have 3 baby girls. We blessed Kayla Labor Day weekend while most of are family was in town.

So here are a few I didn't post on facebook.

Nola Jean

Little bit of Myla

Her first pony tail!

(Before) Myla loved to sit on the couch like this until she fell after this picture was taken and landed face first in the toy box I kept on the side of the couch. She scratched her face all up.

(After) Poor thing

Crazy hair day

My babies

I had the girls on the couch together one day and I

just looked at them and marveled at my two baby girls. Love them!

Nola could not wait to go outside and make snow angels.

She loves being in the snow. Good thing cause we get plenty of it here.

Weighing in at.....

Oh what a long time it has been. I have so much to post so I will start with this for today. Both babies had check ups last Friday. Myla is 15 months now and weighs 21 pounds and is in the 25th percentile. Still my little peanut. Kayla is 2 months and weighed 11 pounds. Both had to get shots and that made it a little tricky for momma, but we managed. Myla is now done with shots til kindergarten. SIGH. So much more to post. Stay tuned.

Kayla Lee Simpson

Kayla was born August 10th at 9:46 p.m. It's almost been a month and mommy is just now updating. She is such a joy to our family and I am very glad she is here. My labor was fast and furious. We arrived at the hospital at 5 pm and less then five hours later she made her appearance. She weighed 8 pounds 6 ounces and has a ton of brown curly hair. We are all doing really well.

Not a peanut anymore!

Myla had her year check up yesterday. Her stats were 19 pounds and 28 inches long. She is now in the 25th percentile instead of the third. She has been small at every appointment until yesterday the doctor said " She's catching up". She is taking steps but not quite walking yet. She says uh oh and calls us all daddy.

Baby update

The baby is doing great and we are moving along with this pregnancy. I will be 35 weeks in a few days and I hope to go early again. We will see what Kayla wants to do. I am not enjoying the hot summer being this far along, but who planned this right? I am growing anxious to meet my little baby and see how my other two adjust to life with three. We decided to name her Kayla Lee Simpson. Can't wait to meet her to not be pregnant for a long time and to adjust to life with three. I heard somewhere that when you have three momma and daddy go from man to man defense to zone. I play both pretty well so bring it on.

Myla turns 1 !

My little baby turned one. We celebrated a few days early with Devin's family and will celebrate with my family this weekend when we are in Utah.

First cake

Sharing with Grandpa

Myla was born on this little guys birthday.( Our nephew) Isn't he handsome? I had to take pictures of the birthday kids.

I experienced a new kind of joy when Myla came into our family. It is so fun to she the girls inter act and to see Myla start to create boundaries with Nola. Myla is going to be my fighter and Nola is going to be my lover. Myla momma and Daddy love you.

Fourth of July 2012

Waiting for the parade to start. Myla with daddy.

Nola Jean

Devin's grandma was the grand Marshall of the parade. Love her!

We started our fourth out at the early hour of 6 am. Devin's scouts were in charge of the Flag ceremony at the town breakfast. So we left the house a little after 6am. The girls loved the parade, well except for the part when the fire trucks sprayed us, but it was welcomed by momma. It was a hot day. We spent most of the day relaxing with family. It was a long but fun day.
