Christmas

Christmas was so much fun. The girls got everything they asked for of course. Santa was very good to them this year. Megan got tons of art stuff she loves to draw and color and lot of clothes just what every girl needs. Kadence got baby doll stuff and Addison got the cutest little train she loves it. After opening at our house we went over to my parents where the girls got a race car from my dad. They had so much fun racing cars, but I think it will be a fight with the dads and kids since all the dads got their own race car to. After a little while Corys parents came down and again we opened more presents. It as a lot of fun. We hope everyone had a good Christmas and we wish everyone all the best for the new year.

Little Lexie is here!

The newest addition is here. Tiffany had little Lexie at 2:34 pm Saturday the 27th of Dec. She was 5 lbs 8.6 oz and 19 inches, she had tons of dark hair and is so dang cute. Everything went really good and she is coming home today. We can't wait to get to hold her and play with her.

My new little niece will be here soon!!!!

I had to let everyone how excited I am. Tiffany my sister is having a little girl on Saturday and I am so excited. Little Lexie isn't due until January but she isn't wanting to grow, she should be at 36 weeks but is measuring at 33 weeks so they are going to get Tiffany started on Saturday, to make sure the little girly is okay. So this means another little diva in the Miller clan. I can't wait. I am so ready to finally have a niece on my side of the family. We hope everything goes good for Tiffany and the baby. We can't wait for her to get here so she can be spoiled routine.

Christmas Treats

This year I have tried really hard to get in the spirit not just of CHRISTmas but doing something with the girls every night, so this is what we have come up with this week. We have made brownies, rice crispy treat wreaths, Gingerbread Houses, and Reindeer Cookies. It has been so much fun. Thank you Megan and Kadence I had a blast with you this week.

Snow in St. George?

Yes it is true we got snow. in some places A LOT. Megan was so sad when I told her school was canceled because of the snow. Cory and his friend Chris went Chucker hunting at Utah Mountain and this is what they got themselves into.There is about 15 inches of snow, it is all the way to the door of his truck can you believe it.

Addi 6 months and growing!!

I can't believe how fast it goes by. Addi is now almost 7 months and finally has learned to sit I didn't know if she ever would it seemed like it was taking her for ever. Then all of a sudden she decided to get on her knees yes on her knees. I can't believe that she is already trying to crawl. It is so sad to think that she isn't this little baby that all you do is stare at her, she is now wanting to play and move she can get across the room so fast just rolling and don't know that I am ready for her to start crawling but I think it is going to happen sooner than we think.

Finally our Christmas Tree!

We finally got our tree up. I would have had it up the week after Halloween but Cory had to let me know that Christmas comes after Thanksgiving. So the saturda after Thanksgiving we put our tree up. I love Christmas it is such a great time of year.

Oh Cutler!!

Most of you know my wild, crazy, fun, lovable nephew Cutler. He is so cute. I was watching Noah and Cutler last week and all the other kids were outside playing. Cutler wanted to watch Toy Story and this is what I found just after putting it in for him. Is this not so cute and Tiffany says he is wild. I just don't see it. HA HA. We love you Cutler.

Clean up disaster!!

Okay I need some help. I have a little problem ok a really BIG problem. Cleaning up the girls room has become the biggest task of the day I am not even kidding. Megan and Kadence have decided that a clean room in not a need but for me it is. They throw the biggest fits to have to clean up. It starts with a I didn't make the mess and ends 2 or 3 hours later with me taking and throwing away toys because they won't clean them up. The throwing away toys used to work but now all it does is makes them cry and still not pick up. By he end of the night I have had it. I tell Cory every night I am going to go in their room and get rid of everything because then they can't make and mess and not clean it up. I don't have a problem with them playing and making a mess it is the idea that they won't clean it up. If any one has any better ideas I need some help on this one.

Finally Halloween

Halloween was so crazy and fun this year we had 2 halloween parties with the girls at there schools and it was a blast. Kadence was three different people for halloween. Addi just had a shirt that said " Snack o Lantern" and Megan was a Ballerina

Kadence Halloween party. She was a princess not a Disney princess (for once) just a random princess.

Kadence trunk or treating at her school

Kadence Changed and was a Southern Bell and Megan was a Ballerina

Mrs Bryner Megans Teacher she is such a great teacher Megan loves her. They had a parade at Megans school so we went and watched she was so cute.

Addi finally eats baby Food

Our little Addi is now 6 months old and finally I have gotten her to eat baby food. It has been a long and frustrating task. Obviously it wasn't me who got her to eat it is was Cory which kind of hurt my feelings since I am the one who normally feeds her, changes her diaper, baths her and of course gets up with her in the middle of the night. But I guess that is okay since she puts her hands out to me when she wants me to hold her. Which is a really good feeling. Is this not the cutest face.

Kids say the funniest things!!!

So last week we were coming home from Kadence's party in Cedar City with Cory's family. It was about 8:30 so it was dark in the truck Megan asked if they could have the light on in the back so Kadence and her could see the toys they were playing with. So they had the light on for awhile then when we got to the Hurricane exit I told them we were getting close to town and they needed to turn the light off. Megan being Megan turned the light off and started to through a fit, then all of a sudden she stopped and said "Mom do you have any carrots?" I said "No are you hungry?" Megan then said "No, I just need carrots so I can see better, you do know that carrots help you see, right?" I couldn't help but laugh. Sometimes it amazes me what little kids learn, and remember what they hear.

Kadence Turns 4

While we were in California Kadence had her birthday. She is now 4. I can't believe how fast it goes. She is so fun and is always saying the cutest things. She loves purple, chicken nuggets and pre-school. She thought is was so cool to get to turn 4 while on vacation. I guess it was easier for me I didn't really have to do a birthday party, just dinner at Denny's. What a party.

California Trip!!!!

Last week we went to California with my family. We had a great time. Cory had to go home half way through the trip for work but it was still fun. We spent three days at Disneyland and a day at SeaWorld.

Me, Megan and Kadence got our faces painted. It was so fun.

Kadence was tall enough to ride most of the rides this time. YEAH!!

This is how we got around the park without losing kids most of the time. All on the stroller.

All of our princess's

SeaWorld!

We had a lot of fun in Seaworld.

Megan got to hold a star fish. She thought that was so great.

Kadence holding her star fish.

The killer whale show. The girls loved it.

Kadence's Big Day!!!

Kadence started Preschool yesterday at Barefoot Montessori. She was so excited!!! Cory and I took her and thought she would be scared and wouldn't want to stay, since she has seperation issues ever since Addi was born. But, she went right in turned around and said BYE mom.

When I picked her up I asked :" Kadence what did you do at school?"

Kadence "I learned like a hundred songs, okay like 5."

Me: "Did you meet any new friends?"

Kadence "Yes, and she's bigger than me, shes 5. Mom, I get to go with the big kids!"

It is so sad she is getting so big now. I can't believe how fast it really goes by. I am so excited for Kadence to get to go without Megan with her. I think she needs time with other kids. It is a little quiet in the house now. Megan and Kadence both go to school in the afternoon and Addi is usually asleep while they are gone. I can actually get stuff done now without stopping to console someone in tears or break up a fight. I love it. But I do miss the girls and can't wait for them to get home.

Megan Goes to Kindergartern!!!!

Yes it is true Megan started Kindergarten on Thursday!!!


She was so excited to start that the night before she started she set her clothes and backpack out on her bed.

I was so excited for her to start since all she has talked about for the last month is Kindergarten. She was so cute all morning she kept asking if it was time to go. I didn't think that I would be sad but I almost cried. I held it back though since Kadence was with me and I didn't want her to get sad!!!!

.

Getting ready to leave for school!!!

Walking with dad into school!

Waiting in line to go into class!!!

YEAH!!! Megan is getting off the bus!!! She thought is was the coolest thing to get to ride the bus home from school.

Happy Birthday CUTLER!!!!

I just wanted to tell Cutler my little nephew Happy 2nd Birthday! He keeps us all laughing and is so fun. We Love You!!!

Longest Night Ever

Okay so I think I had the longest night of my life last night. Cory went fishing with his dad for a couple of days so I thought I could get a lot done at night so, I got Megan and Kadence to bed at 8:00 which was great and Addi got in her bed at 9:00, so far so good right? I went into the laundry room and started ironing clothes until 12:00 then I went and got in bed, as soon as I got in bed Kadence started crying for me so I went and got her and she had a fever. So I get her some Tylenol and got her back to bed it is about 1:00am now. I get back in bed, and sure enough down comes Kadence now she is complaining about a stomach ache so I give her some pepto and put her back in bed. Then Addi wakes up and wants to eat when I get done feeding her it is 2:30 am but of course she doesn't want to go back to sleep she just wants to cry so after an hour of crying I get her to sleep, then down comes Kadence again, now she wants me to go lay with her so we both go upstairs and lay down. At about 4:00 I come back down stairs and lay in my bed then at 5:30 I can hear my dad up getting ready for work, then 7:00 Kadence comes down stairs goes in the bathroom and throws up a lot. I think today is going to be a really long day with no sleep, a sick little girl and a baby all at the same time it is going to be a really really long day.

Weekend at Grandma & Grandpa Curtis' aka "Horsey"

You are probably wanting to know about the akd Horsey in the title, ever since I can remember the Megan has called Cory's parents Grandma and Grandpa Horsey, that is because obviously they have horses. It is really cute but it really is Grandma and Grandpa Curtis. We went to their house this weekend to get our camp trailer ready incase we go camping in the near future. We had a blast the girls got to ride the horses which they loved.








Megan on Scooter

Kadence on Jack

We got to see Chett who we miss so much, he is staying there until we get a house of our own. We coudn't bring him to my parents house because they don't really do the dog thing and they have a pool and we wouldn't beable to keep him out of it. But he really does like it in Minersville he has a lot of room to run a river to play in and it isn't has hot.








Keith and Guyla have this playhouse that Guylas dad made along time ago it was for Cory and his brother when they were little. It is the coolest thing ever, there are two rooms in it with real windows and best of all it actually has power to it. It really is a great thing to have and the girls love it.






Kadence was having a rest Megan cleaning the playhouse
