Update on Emma

By -
So, I thought I would let you all know how Emma was doing with her nudity issues. The pinning works really well with the sleepers with zippers, however when I put her down to nap in the afternoon, she likes to take it all off, and this week she pooped in her crib and played in it before I realized she had taken everything off. She also has a night gown that she loves to wear that she can't take off because it buttons too tightly to pull over her head, but she can still get the diaper off. Last night she took it off and pooped in her crib again. I think I will have to tape the diaper when she wears those pajamas. She also likes to strip down during the day, especially when we go to someone elses house. Good times. It is a good thing she is so stinking cute.

Speaking of cute, she said something that really made me laugh. She loves to say her prayers, except she doesn't really copy much of what you say besides "amen". Yesterday when we were saying her prayers, we thanked Heavenly Father for her toys, mommy and daddy, and then she looked at me and touched Savanna and said "toh-tee" I understood that to mean that she wanted to be thankful for Savanna and added her in the prayer, which Emma smiled approvingly to. Then she pointed to Madalyn and said the same thing "toh-tee", so I added Madalyn too. She looked very pleased with herself, and I thought it was weird that she was calling them "toh-tee". A few minutes later she was calling the girls "toh-tee" again, and I said to Nick "Emma is calling both of her sisters toh-tee, I wonder why." Which he replied to by saying, "Is she saying turkey?" I turned to Emma and said "Are you calling them turkey?" She got the biggest grin on her face, nodded her head and said "toh-tee" as she pointed to her sisters. I laughed so hard. She rarely says her sisters' names, and now she has decided to call them turkey.

LOL that is the cutest story!! Good luck with the poppy crib. I can't tell you how many times I had to clean that up with my kids. My clue that something was up was when I could still hear them after 20 minutes when they should be asleep.

Can I just say that it's a little amusing to me that my sisters had kids that were like me... you have to admit it's a little humorous.

If you recall when I was potty training Clayton, towards the end I had to use duck tape to keep his diaper on. That was fun, especially when I changed him at church. Every mom takes a roll of tape and scissors out of the diaper bag along with the wipes and clean diaper.

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...
