Caterpillers Can Be Very Loud!!

We just bought the twins Halloween outfits!!! Yes...I know...I waited to the last minute but I dont thing they minded!! They dont seem to like them AT ALL!!!!
We decided to take Elsie to the pumpkin patch this weekend, we found out the twins had little colds so we left them with Grandparents so that it could be all about Elsie. We're trying to really give her alot of attention with what going on in her life lately. I think it was alot better that we did leave the babies at home because my allegies were horrible with all the hay so I know they would have been miserable!

My Wedding Dress






I didnt expect to buy my wedding dress anytime soon but I already did!!! I was on craigslist and just looking and I saw an ad for this dress. I totally and completely loved it (and the price!) so o called and asked if I could come see it and try it on. My mom and sister went with me and the dress zipped perfectly and looked amazing. My mom started crying and my sister was telling me how amazing I looked and that I HAD to buy it. I looked at my mom and she just nooded and I knew. I always expected to go to some fancy store to by my wedding dress but instead I went to some ladies house!! And the good part is the price....$125!!! So if I do end up finding something I like better, its not too much of a loss but I dont think I will!! I totally love this dress!

Ive been Tagged!!!!

Sorry it took so long!!!!! So lets see...Im supposed to put 6 of my quirks...Hmm...Here it goes!!

1. This one is totally weird but I dont know why I do it. I have to itch equally. It sounds wierd but its like this...if I itch one leg, I have to itch the other. I think its minor OCD but Ive done it for so long that now I itch both at one time. It can be really weird but its a quirk!

2. Like Kristina, I also have to have matching bottles. They just look better when they match!! Also I have to use clear nipples. The brown colored ones gross me out and I always think they are dirty. I try to match up all the bottles when they come out of the dishwasher so that I dont have to go through and find a matching color. And if its a patterned bottle then I have to use a color thats on the bottle alot.

3. I sleep with my feet out of the covers. Ive done this ever since I was little and no clue why. I have both feet out and the blankets up over my head usually in the mornings! Its funny because my mom does the same thing so I guess I got it from her. Its weird how things get passed from parent to child like that.

4. When I get in the car I have to empty any trash thats in it first. Like it theres a Starbucks cup from the day before, I have to throw it way. I think its because one time I left a a sup of chocolate milk in the car for like a week and I accidently took a drink while driving. It was horrible!!!!! So I guess I dont want to make that mistake again!!

5. When I go inside of a fast food place and eat there, I have to stand by the counter to try to watch them make my food. I dont like alot of things so almost all of my orders of food have a modification on them and I hate waiting for them to remake it so I would rather tell them there mistake before I get my food. The things I really dont like are mayo, onions, bell peppers and sour cream and alot of fast food places have one of those on most there food.

6. Everyone has to sit in there designated spots at dinner or any meals we eat at the table. I like order and control so I guess thats why! Lily and Jack even have there own high chairs. I dont switch them around. I guess Im a little nurotic but Im just me!!!!

Elsies Room

We want Elsie to feel like she is completely at home while she stays with us so we made the decision to decorate her own room. I didnt know what to do for it but basically we just made it like Elsies personality. She loves to look at books and I was given a TON by family members so we stuck all of them in there.

We got REALLY lucky and saw our neighbor was having a yeard sale. Well we bought the bed there and the leaf thing and the little kid table all for $40 bucks. Elsie loves the leaf...I dont really know why!
We bought the bedding and shelves at Ikea for like $60 I think and we had everything else. The flower lamp we bought to go into Lilys room but when we put it in there, I hated it so it was sitting in a closet. The dresser was just one that Aharon had but we put new harware on it. The flower picture, I think, makes the room perfect. Another thing we had no where to put!

The toys were things we bought here and there for
her or she had already. She loves her room and I hope she gets to use it alot!!






Engagment Ring!


I finally got my ring!! Aharon and I went shopping with the kids on Saturday to try to buy bedding for Elsies room and we decided to look inside of this jewlery store that was having a huge sale. We were planning on just looking and then Aharon asked the sales guy to show us this ring. I tried it on and it fit perfectly. I loved it but didnt want to make a fuss about buying it because its something that I didnt really need at the moment. Aharon asked the guy how much it was and the price was really good. He looked at me and told the guy we would take it! I couldnt believe it! I love it!!! Its a princess cut surrounded in a square with other diamonds. I couldnt ask for more now!

We Have ANOTHER Child!!!!!!!!!!!!!










Not from us but from my brother. He is having a very tough time right now so my niece Elsie is living with us!!!!!!!!! My brother is going through a very hard divorce and my ex sister in law (A VERY HORRID WOMAN!!!!!!) walked out on them and doenst want anything to do with either of them. I cried when I heard this. So on top of meeting with lawyers, my brother is working 80 work week and was trying to raise a 2 year old. We told him we would take her until he could again. He still sees her almost everyday so he isnt abandoning her. She loves it though!!! Heres some pictures from her 2nd birthday that was on September 2nd.
I also have some picture of her in the hospital after the twins were born that I will post soon! We are also going to paint and buy her furniture this weekend so pictures of her new room will be coming soon too!!!!! Stay Tuned!!!!!
