Meet my WONDERFUL babies!

Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you meet my three beautiful babies. 
My oldest is Isabel Mae. She is 10 years old. Anyone who is a mom of an older child, ok, tween, will understand this statement. She drives me CRAZY! There are moments when she is like, "Mom, what can I do?" She will clean up her mess, help clean up after her siblings, she is just soooo good. And then.....hormones......I get sassy Izzy! She sticks out her tounge, pouts, backtalks, and is just such a ......whats the word?.........GIRL! But, even when I get that Izzy I still look at her and feel soooo blessed to have her in my life. (Even though when I ask for a kiss I get a peck on the cheek! What is up with that?)  She is truly a good girl.
Next up is Kaylee Anne. At 6, she still loves to get dirty, play with her baby brother, and sit on my lap. But she also wants to wear lipgloss, wear skirts, and get her hair curled in the morning like her big sister. She is stuck in the inbetweens. I see alot of my sister Olivia in Kaylee. She is as tough as nails and as innocent and sweet as a baby. She is my child that got hit by the car,broke her left femur bone, held her leg and walked to the curb. Crying....But the dr and paramedics said there was no way that she walked. But she did. I was in shock and couldn't move...But Kaylee walked. :)
My third baby is blessedly still that, Lucas Allen. At three and my only boy he is a handful. Right now he is going through the TERRIBLE threes but they don't seem so bad. Maybe its because he is my baby and everything he does is still so cute... Or maybe its because I look at him and see one of my favorite people in the whole world.....my baby brother Luke. O.K. so maybe its silly that I named my son after my brother but they are both such good boys.....And Big Luke(my brother) was such a joy in my life that I wanted to have a piece of him with me all the time.And now I have a son who has embodied so much of  all the good of my brother it is truly eerie. Luke will play for hours with his cars or throwing a ball, that sometimes I catch myself seeing my brother at his age. He still loves his Mommy and loves to give kisses. He worships his sisters and thinks that they are the BEST thing! I know that the day will come when being the only boy won't be so cool. But for now life is still simple.

Ok, so you met all my babies. Lets fill you in on this morning. My husband, Kevin, finally got a call to go back to work. YAY! So he woke me up, and I woke the girls. Izzy gets up most days without complaint, where Kaylee WILL NOT MOVE! She is my child that could sleep for 12 hours everyday amd STILL not want to wake up. Let me be honest, she isn't crabby, she just doesen't want to move. She becomes a rag doll. So this morning, Izzy popped right up and Kaylee threw the blankets over her head. The only way I got Kaylee to move, was to carry her to the tub. If you have a child like Kaylee, the best way to get them moving is a shower or bath. Its much quicker than fighting with them!  After they were up and dressed I made some hot cocoa, and they skyped with Aunt Marie and Kaitlin. Then we had to get ready to go out the door. We literally live across the street, so they walk there. But Kaylee needed shoes. And Izzy had to go potty. Every minute Izzy was yelling, "What time is it mom?" I would answer and Izzy would say O.K.Meanwhile Kaylee was looking for her boots. In 10 minutes  she managed to find 1. By this point Izzy was out and ready to leave. Wallball championship this morning you know.....Big day! Anyway, we ended up NOT finding the boot, so Kay had to wear sneakers and she was NOT happy. But what can you do? haha.
So Luke just woke up. He is my only breakfast as soon as he's awake, kid. So he's sitting on the floor watching Sesame Street with a big bowl of cereal and a nanner (bannanna). Anyway, I  better go for now. If I don't get some household things done, my hubby is going to take away my computer! LOL. Talk to you all soon.
