Sisters...

I have been thinking a lot about sisters lately. #1 Reason is because I am getting close to going home and cant wait to see my sisters (actually everyone but this post is about sisters!) I cant imagine my life without them. #2 Is because I watch my younger two together and it seriously melts my heart- they love each other so much I cant imagine them NOT having each other. And #3 is when I took Punky to the podiatrist the other day she said "You have four daughters? Thats just not right". Really? Ry and I looked at each other in shock.


Some of you may remember this photo my friends (sisters!) Kenzi and Kylie took. I love the quote she put on it and one day will have a very large copy of this pic in my house.
I cant even express the feelings I get every time I see this picture. I love how she captured each girls personality, even if its just their back legs! I love Ry acting too cool, A posing, and Punky tiptoeing to be one of the big girls, it couldn't have been planned better.


I am so grateful for these four. They definately keep me busy but they are well worth it. They amaze me every day. They are smart, talented, kind, loving, and call me biased but probably the cutest girls ever.

These two are best buddies. They are always sitting right next to each other and love to cuddle while watching TV. They do everything together and get thrown off if the other one is not there. My sister and I did not like each other until we were adults so I see these two and really hope this is not temporary and they will always be best buds.


I love, love, love my four girls. So, Sorry Dr. T that you are not as lucky as I am and just do not realize what you are missing, because this feels OH SO RIGHT!

Happy Earth Day!!



Ry had to do an Earth Day project where they reused something. So we did a Capri Sun purse. It turned out so cute and it was pretty easy. There was only one time I had to step in and do some figuring out. She would not be in the picture though so the Boss is modeling it for us. Also after her presentation a bunch of kids would not believe that she had made it, they kept saying she bought it. Yeah she is that good!!

Rain Forest Field Trip

Punky had a field trip to the Rain Forest, a huge indoor exhibit at the zoo. The kids had so much fun, there were waterfalls, trees, plants, flowers, bugs, reptiles, turtles, ducks, monkeys, bats, an alligator and a very cool winding staircase inside a tree.
After it was over she and I went over to the zoo and checked out a few animals before heading home. It is so much fun having some one on one time with this girl- she is so funny and dang cute. I am so glad that this girl is mine!
Yesterday I left her in the car for a minute, when I came back out she had gotten up front. I told her how dangerous it was to do that and her response was "Mom but You're so COOL and you drive, and I want to be so COOL like you". I told her she was right that I am so cool- but stay in the back seat!




New York Fun

We found a fun Children's Museum while in New York. We mainly went because they were celebrating Sesames Streets 40th Anniversary and Elmo was going to be there. But- The older two are way too cool for Elmo and the younger two were scared! But I did get a picture of The Boss being held down by Elmo, she still gets a nervous look on her face and says "Mama Elmo" ha ha its pretty funny. I think she has lost all respect for that guy!

Welcome Back






So, I am starting a new non private blog with less private info for my friends and family to follow. It seems like since we went private that everyone stopped reading our blog because it was hard to get onto or since it did not move up on your updated list we were forgotten. Either way we are back and should be easier to find!

So, the girls and I went to stay with Dr Dad on his externship in New York for Spring Break. It was fun... kind of. Noah and Allison came to visit so that was fun, we had some Easter festivities and we had a whole lot of watching t.v. that week! Also, my having pneumonia did not help at all!! We luckily were in a four bedroom apartment so we had plenty of room to move around. We found a few things to do around town but ended up pretty bored.
Dr. on the other hand really is enjoying it there. He has been busy and loves what he is getting into. It seems surgery has been by far his favorite part, he has been able to scrub in almost everyday and help out a bit with suturing etc. He is such a people person, he comes home everyday to tell me everything from the cute old greek lady to the cat woman with cat feces packed into her wounds (I know gross), but he loves them all and he loves what he is doing. He is going to be a great Doctor, I could not be more proud.
Not much else going on with the rest of us. Older Punks brought home report cards with all A's and one B each. They both are kind of competing with each other to be the one with ALL A's.
All of us are getting excited for our two month long vacation this summer. My two sisters will be getting married, we have a Disneyland trip booked, and hoping to be boating all summer long. So excited- just wish dad was going to be around instead of in Colorado for more externships:(
