I have a couple of Emma stories. Last night, a little while after I put Emma to bed she started to cry, but I just let her cry it out and it seemed to work. About a half an hour after she stopped crying I thought I would check on her and cover her up with her blanket, the usual stuff I do after she falls asleep. Well, when I went in to check on her she was completely naked and laying in a fetal position on her belly! She had unzipped her pajamas and stripped down, taking her diaper off as well. Everything was thrown over the side of the crib and in a pile on the floor. (Luckily she hadn't pooped.) She hadn't gone to the bathroom in her crib naked so I pulled her out and got her dressed again, (however she refused to wear the same pajamas as before so we put her in a different pair, ) and put her back to bed. She went right to sleep, and Nick and I had a pretty good laugh. It was very unexpected to find her that way!

Tonight Madalyn came into the kitchen as we were cleaning up dinner and informed me that Emma had taken off her pants and was sitting on her potty with her "bare bum". Now, this is not something new, she likes to do this all the time, which I let her because I want her to get comfortable with it, and she is so interested. I turned to Nick and told him that I didn't want to start potty training yet because she didn't seem ready, and then both Madalyn and Savanna run in yelling that Emma peed on the potty. We went in to see, and she indeed had. That makes the second time that she has done this, but the first time was totally luck. This time, I think she did it on purpose. I was really surprised, and maybe she will be the easiest kid of mine to potty train. (knock on wood)

I am so jealous about Emma going potty. Gavin still hasn't done that.

Corynn was my easiest to train. She trained herself in one week. I think she was 18 months but it was a long time ago.

Meet our son,Porter Harrison Kelly

Porter Harrison Kelly was born Saturday, April 24 th by c-section. He was 6lbs 14 0z. and 19 inches long. We named him after his brother, who we feel has been here with him, helping him fight for life. He seemed to have some trouble with his lungs so they brought him to the NICU . To make a long story short, he kept going down hill, and found himself first on a ventilator and then an oscillating ventilator. He hemorrhaged in his lungs, had to be on blood pressure meds , and had to have numerous tests done on his brain, heart, and lungs. They think that he got an infection, but will never know for sure because many of the tests were inconclusive. Thankfully he is doing much better, and should be home in a couple of days. He was one sick kid, but so cute. I didn't get to hold him for a few days, almost a week after his birth. It was heaven being able to finally hold him. Here are some pics of our little guy. Nick had to wear some pretty cool things over his clothes for the...

We have BIG news!

We are going to have another little boy. I am 20 weeks along, and found out today that our baby is a boy. We are pretty excited. Savanna and Madalyn really wanted the baby to be a boy. We let them come to the ultrasound to see the baby, and afterwards Savanna told me she was really lucky. I asked her why and she told me that she always gets what kind of baby she wants. She really wanted Emma to be a girl, and now we're having what she wants again. I told Emma that we are going to have a little baby boy, and she told me "I don't want that kind." I asked her what she wanted and she said " A baby girl!" Oh well, you can't make everyone happy. Nick and I are excited and we are all going out to eat tonight to celebrate.

My House

Okay, so I have finally gotten around to posting pictures of my house. I have been really busy with getting the yard work done, and I am still not caught up like I would like to be. It is coming along though, and I love my house. This is the front view This is the front facing the side. Nick is closing the gate to the backyard. Notice the rainbow in the sky. This is the flower patch in the front yard. It still needs a little weeding, but it's not too bad. This is the other side of the front yard. I love the rock. This is my garden in the backyard. I should have taken a "before" picture. It was covered in weeds. Getting it weeded has taken a lot of time! This is a rainbow that was outside our home on the fourth of July. This is the living room. I didn't pick it up before I took pictures, so you get to see books, shoes and other kid stuff. This is the kitchen/dining area. Madalyn and Savanna were working on puzzles. This is Emma in our family room, and her...
