Hey everybody! So I don't know who all reads our blog since I never receive any comments (hint, hint), & I'm wondering if this is a big waste of time. Anyway, not much has changed in the past week for us, it is nice having Alex here most of the time though. We have both applied for jobs but neither of us has had any feedback yet, so we aren't sure what to do next. The kids have both been sick all week, so I've been dealing with the asthma treatments & such. The last couple days have been nicer weather, so Aaliyah has gotten to go outside for a little while. She has really been having a hard time lately. Everything has become a major drama with her & she's started throwing tantrums, which are really not cute! If anyone has advice on how to get her to stop, please let me know, cuz whatever I'm doing isn't working. I can't believe she's almost 3 years old! She has known her numbers from 1-10 in english & spanish for a long time now & lately she has been singing a spanish number song that she heard on her Lily the Leapfrog toy. She loves to sing songs, she has all of our night time songs memorized & likes to sing along with me. They both love to dance & I was gonna post a video of AJ dancing, but the sound was really bad because of the bass, so maybe I'll do that tomorrow. Here are some pictures of Liya riding her horse outside today.

  1. Hey! I enjoy reading your blog, sometimes, okay, most of the time I don't have time to leave a comment but I think of it this way! It is a running journal, you can look back on here and find out what happened 2 years ago! Keep it up:-)

  2. I read your blog too. I just usually see the updates on my google reader and I can't comment from there. If I can comment from there I don't know how :) I agree with Bianca use it as a journel. I have been horrible about writing stuff down in a baby book for Kaylee, but I can go back and see when she did stuff on here.

  3. Yeah I really hadn't thought of it like that. It is a good way to remember stuff I would probably forget later. Thanks for the comments :) !

  5. Hey girl. I read your blog too. You have beautiful children. I don't have kids, but one piece of psychology to deal with the tantrums, remember you are in control of the situation as long as you stay calm. When you lose your cool, the child takes control. Also, don't make threats that you don't follow through. Kids are smart and they don't let you get away with anything! Good luck. Love ya
