Sorry it has been awhile. The girls are keeping me busy...but that's no excuse. Today the girls said something funny that made Cam and I laugh. It went something like this.
We were on our way home from church and I was talking to Londyn about how sensitive I can be. She just sat and listened to me quietly.
We made it home and we were making lunch.
cam- Tiff do you wan't a hot dog?
Tiff- Sure
Londyn- Do you know that hot dogs are pigs...she goes on and on about the pig
Tiff- Never mind Cam I don't want a hot dog now (Thinking about the pig )
Londyn-Laughs
Tiff- (I'm a little bugged) I can't bring myself to eat a hot dog. Still thinking of the pig. I say to Londyn do you know why I can't eat the hot dog now.
Londyn- why because you are sensitive.
Cam-(about chokes on his hot dog) Mommy has a hard time eating certain things.
Dylan- Daddy shove it down her throat. hold her down make her eat it.
So basically I am always being picked on. This shows you how londyn listens to me and Dylan thinks about it....Then does what she wants. .....It is a good thing she can't hold me down.

BUSY,BUSY,BUSY
I feel like life has been crazy! I need to slow down and just sit back and enjoy my children. They bring so much joy in my life. I have been mean lately. I am always yelling and I hate it. Dylan has been funny lately. I picked her up form school yesterday and they had posted on the board things that they were thankful for. All the kids in the class put ...... I am thankful for my family, sisters, brothers etc. Not Dylan she wrote... I am THANKFUL for CHICKENS. She loves to eat so I guess she was thinking about food at the time ( HOPEFULLY) I know she is thankful for our family she shows me each day. Londyn has been so helpful she holds Harper when I am busy and does little things to help me out when needed. Harper loves her and lights up when she is near. Harper is sweet and rolls around the floor all day. She loves to eat my face when I kiss her. I love these girls with all my heart and want them to know that always.

It has been a few days since I have written. We have been busy. Cam has been out of town quite a bit lately. Tonight was date night (we trade baby sitting with 5 other couples). Cam is out of town so I went Christmas shopping. When I picked the girls up from our friends we were driving home and Londyn said the funniest thing. It went something like this.
We were driving down the road.
Londyn: Look mom at that dog.
Mom: Yep I see it.
Londyn: It's a BOY dog! Do you know how I know?
Mom: ( waiting to hear what she says) HOW?
Londyn: (GIGGLES) You look between his legs.
Dylan: That's funny
Mom: (LAUGHING) You are right.
We then stopped to get a milkshake. Today was a good day! ( Except for the whining) Harper is getting big! She likes to stick her tongue out. She rolls over and laughs out loud. We think she is getting teeth. Her fist is down her throat half the time. Londyn and Dylan are the best big sisters. They wake up in the morning and pull the stool over to her crib to look at her. She smiles when she sees them. Harper loves Rocko. she gets excited when he is around. I love these girls and I am so lucky to have them.

I need to sit down and write little things I remember about the day my girls were born. My memory comes and goes I forget little important things. I decided I will write down little things I remember as they come to my mind.
The day Londyn was born.
I remember waking up on the morning of May 27th and getting ready for work.
I had a Dr's Appt. that morning with Dr. Rappleye.
Cam and I were in the room and he checked me to see how far dilated I was. We knew I was already at a 3 and 90% effaced. I had been that for weeks. He asked me if I wanted to have my baby today. I remember looking at Cameron and then saying No. Cam was shocked. I had been complaining for weeks that I was ready.
I remember feeling scared when he asked. (More like terrified) To have a baby. I was nervous that it was going to hurt.
Dr. Rappleye left the room. Cam looked at me and said are you kidding me. You have been ready for weeks. He told me we could WAIT. And that's when I knew I was ready.
I walked out of the room and found the nurse and asked her if it was too late to change my mind. She said go get your stuff and head to the hospital. Cam and I ran up to Egbert's to grab our car seat. (Don't ask me why) When we got there Jon and Nic were there.We told lauri it was time to have the baby. I started to cry.... I was scared ...she hugged me and then told Jon and Nic they need to hug me too! We ran home and got our things and headed to Cottonwood hospital.
We arrived and not long after my mom came. They started me on petosin ( I'm not sure how to spell that) anyways. I didn't feel my contractions that much. They came in and asked me if I wanted a epidural. The Dr. was going to lunch I could either get it now or wait until he got back. ( You can guess what I said) I got the epidural and slept until they came to check me. I was Dilated to a 5 and 100% effaced. They told me It would be awhile. I waited about a hour and then I felt something. I called the nurse. She came in and told me that there was no way I was ready. She checked me anyway. She immediately told me don't push. I am going to call Dr. Rappleye. (He was stuck in traffic) About 20 minutes later he arrived. I pushed once and the most precious little girl was born. She had lots if black hair. She weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces and was 21 and a half inches long.
It was love at first sight..... I am still in love
Cam, My mom, lauri and my Grandma Kinder were there to see her born. And the whole family waited outside my room to welcome sweet Londyn.

Today is Saturday the weather was wonderful. The girls and I decided to go for a walk to McKinley Elementary to play on the playground. We packed a picnic and spent the afternoon playing catch with Rocko. Harper went down for her naps today without any fuss. She usually likes to sleep in her swing. Cam and I thought we should stop that before she gets more attached. Harper also decided that she no longer wants to nurse. She figured out that milk comes much faster out of a bottle. Londyn has a cold today and has been coughing all day. She has been sad that she can't hold Harper. The girls and I were having a conversation today that made me smile. It goes something like this.
Londyn: mom do you think I can start going to kids club?
Me: Sure
Dylan: Me too!
Me: You can when you go to Londyn's school.
Dylan: When am I going to Londyn's school?
Me: Next year
Dylan: What's next year?
Me: After the SUMMER when it gets warm again.
Dylan: So not Monday,Tuesday, Wednesday,Thursday,Friday not Saturday but SUMMER(Sunday).
Londyn: (Looks over at me....smiles and starts to giggle).
I love how much they remember. It is fun to talk with them about things that have happened in the past. They remember so much more than I ever thought they would.
Today was a wonderful day. I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. I love my little girls and the joy they bring to me.

Today was such a crazy day to say the least. We were in charge of our baby sitting group. (13 kids to be exact). I don't know why I say WE. Cam is hunting in Omaha with his dad and brothers. He owes me big time! I had a funny conversation with Dylan today. It goes something like this....
Mommy: Dylan do you think you can hold Harpers bottle for me?
Dylan: NO!
Mommy: I will give you a dollar when we get home.
Dylan: (with such animation) OK!!!!!!!
Mommy: Thank you Dylan for holding harpers bottle. Do you know how much that helps mommy out?
Dylan ( waits a moment) Can you get me my dollar.
I could not help but laugh. She is such a persistent little girl. She knows what she wants and will do whatever it takes to get it. I love her so much! she keeps me smiling and pulling my hair out everyday.
We made it home to see Londyn and she was just as sweet as always.
Londyn: Hello mommy! (gives me a hug and runs off to play).
Mommy: Dylan do you think you can hold Harpers bottle for me?
Dylan: NO!
Mommy: I will give you a dollar when we get home.
Dylan: (with such animation) OK!!!!!!!
Mommy: Thank you Dylan for holding harpers bottle. Do you know how much that helps mommy out?

I want to become a better daughter, sister, wife, mother and friend. I came across this wonderful quote that really made me think about life. While reading this quote I thought of myself. What do I really want from life? She talks about her three children sitting in the grass age 6,4 and 1... her children are almost the same ages of my three little girls. Londyn 6 , Dylan 4 and little Harper 5 months. I want to always remember the little things in my life....And so we begin
