My birthday

Today is my 29th birthday, and it the first that my daughter actually has a knowledge of what birthdays are. Yesterday my husband kept telling Kailynn that "tomorrow is mommies birthday" she finally came up to me and asked with all sincerity "mommy, can I come to your birthday?" haha, of course little darling, for having you and your brother around is all that a mommy could want. Nothing warms my heart more than having those two little ones close to me. As soon as Kailynn remembered that today was my birthday, she immediatley wanted me to "open presents". I got some very nice things, but the best presents can't be unwrapped, just being with my family is the best present anyone could ask for (I guess I really am getting older, haha) Tonight it is off for a mexican dinner with the kiddos in tow, we are going early hoping the place won't be too full yet, so the kids can make noise and not bother too many people, bringing lots of snacks, and crayons to keep the kids busy. Now I'm off to enjoy my birthday presents, and get some snuggles from my little gifts. Have a good week!

Getting started

I have decided to give this a try. I have always loved to write and I thought it would be fun to put my thoughts into a blog. I am a stay at home mom of two delightful (yet at times challenging) kiddos. My daughter Kailynn will be three in march, and my son Kaiden just turned one. I will be writing about the ups and downs of parenting, and as I go I will include tips, funny stories and life lessons. Hopefully my life will be a fun read for some people. Hope to hear from you soon! ~Kim
