My sweet lil Kasen




Kasen (my 4 year old) brings me flowers EVERY day!! Some of them are flowers and some are weeds (that look like flowers)! I just LOVE it! It is so thoughtful and makes me feel like he wants to me to feel special everyday!(I do feel very special when he does that so it is working). This is our conversation from today



me: Im going to be so sad when you are older


Kasen: yeah 'cause Im gonna be with Emma!(Emma is his girlfriend in case you didnt know)


Me: haha...Yup! will you still bring me flowers?


Kasen: yeah 'cause Im gonna be living right next door so I will bring them every day!!


Me: promise?
Kasen: yes!!!



I know he most likely wont grow up and want to live right next door to him mommy but it makes me so happy that he wants to right now!



And hey a mom can hope right?!?!

Kasens comments

My little man Kasen is growing up so fast! His vocabulary cracks me up some of the things he say are not normal things for a 4 year old to say! So I think I am going to start posting Kasens comments on here when he makes me laugh which sometimes is daily! Last week I walked into the room and caught him and his friend playing in Karas room(which they are not allowed to do with out permission). I opened the door and said "What are you doing?" Kasen turned around and said "mom you startled me!" He is 4 years old what 4 year old says "startled"? that is my Kasen for you!! I love him SOOO much!

The BESTEST friend ever!


Thank you!!


I have the BESTEST friend in the world!! Yesterday was my birthday and she did a whole post on her blog about me for my bithday!! I think she is an amazing person! I would be lost in this world without her. I talk to her everyday!! When I feel like I am going crazy and the thoughts in my head dont make sense I can call her and she makes sense of them for me! Sometimes I think she knows me better than I know me!! I can relate to her in everyway possible!! Growing up I would have never imagined your best friend could live hundreds of miles from you and your relationship could be SOOOO strong!! We went and saw her last summer and it was like we hadnt been apart at all!! I hope someday we can live close again but I am very grateful for the friendship we have! I LOVE YOU Tina McWinder!!! You are the GREATEST friend a person could ask for I am so blessed to have you in my life!!!

Can we say spoiled?

The other day I was in the kitchen trying to cook dinner and Kara wanted to be held. Well...., when Kara wants to be held while I am in the kitchen, she gets inbetween me and the counter and pushes me! So THAT is what she was doing. This makes me so frustrated somethimes. So I Said. "NO, Kara. Im not going to hold you!!" Well, let me tell you, she knows she is a princess and therefore acts like a princes!! She went to the dining room, (where there is carpet) and strarted to get on her kness and trow a fit. In the middle of her crying and getting down there she saw Joseph watching TV in his room.(there is a dircet line of sight from the dining room to the boys room.) So she stopped crying, got up and walked into Joseph's room. Once she got in Joseph's room she proceeded to start crying again and reaching for Joseph!! Of course Joseph picked her up! She knows he will do almost anything for her! Her other brothers do a lot for her too, but Joseph treats her like a princess. He doesnt realize he is creating a monster. He thinks he is just loving his sister. Brian was the same way only now he sees what we have created. Because although I like to blame it all on the boys, I know I have a part in spoiling her also. (I just will never admit that to Brian and no one reading this will tell him, Right?)

Wish me luck!

So for a long time now I have been saying I want to lose weight!! I blame it on the fact that I have had 4 kids in 6 years, but that is not why. Lots of people have 4 kids in 6 years, some have them in even less time!!! I always want to lose weight but I am too lazy to do anything about it. I dont want to exercize or give up my sweets!!! Well I finally got to the point where I am willing to do whatever it takes. I called up a friend and asked her if she wants to walk with me everyday! Now I have a commiment where I cant just wake up and say "I dont feel like it today."

So Sunday at church I asked this guy in our ward what the best thing to eat before exercizing was. Well I ended up getting an hour lesson in nutrition(which I actually enjoyed greatly). So I was trying to make out a meal plan like he suggested and it was not as easy as I thought it was going to be. So Brian and I decided to set up an appointment to go and meet with him. He gives personal training/nutrition lessons out of his garage. They are pretty cheap, but as you know Brian and I do not have ANY extra money. So I called him up and asked him if he would be willing to help us put together a meal plan for a week and a work out plan. He did it for us and it was very informative. It was suppose to be an hour but ended up being 2 and half hours. He charges $35 and hour if you buy your sessions one at a time. If you buy a bunch together it is cheaper and if you have a partner and you sign up to go at the same time together it is even cheaper. So he told us he would do it for $35. Even though we went over by an hour and a half he still only charged us for an hour!! What a great guy he is!!

So now Brain and I have a meal plan and an exercize plan! Wish us luck and if I can ask, Please every time you see us ask us about it to help hold us accountable!!!

The mind of a 3 year old!

Ok, So I have been terrible at blogging! I would like to promise that I will do better, but I cant promise that! Life with 4 kids is pretty busy!

A couple of months ago we were teaching our kids the 2nd Article Of Faith. "We believe that men will be punished for thier own sins and not Adams transgression" Well, Kasen our 3 year old said "No, I dont believe that" Me "What? Why not?" Kasen " I dont believe we should be punished for anything at all!!" I have now decided to join the church of Kasen. I love him so much. I dont know where some of the things he says come from!
