Chloe's Month!!!




November! WOW..can't believe we'll be starting our second week in November already! Where has the time gone? This year seems to be flying by, faster than usual! We have had a great start to our school year...the boys are doing amazing in school! Keagen made all A's and Kade made half O's (outstanding) and S's (satisfactory), we are so very proud of them! Chloe is doing amazing in school as well, she can write her name almost perfectly, she can count to 30, knows all of her letters and sounds, and can say many Bible verses! And, she's not quite 4 yet ;o)


So, in my last post, it was about P90X, yah, that didn't go as well as I had planned. 90 days doesn't really seem that long, but once you start doing it, it's LONG. I will hopefully get back into it after the first of the year, just like everyone else who makes those "life-long commitments" in January! lol


This is a special month for our family. November is when our angel, princess, diva..whatever name seems to fit her on any particular day, came into our lives!


I never thought that we would have 3 kids, let alone a GIRL! When I found out I was pregnant for a third time, I was in shock, denial, upset, every type of emotion. Just because we had put our house on the market that week, we were moving to Colorado, moving away from a place that I had lived for 23 years..it was hard. Then to find out we were pregnant, was just the icing on the cake! Don't get me wrong! Having a child is the best thing in the world, it was just not on our timing that I was having a hard time with...but of course God's timing is the BEST!


Long story short, we went for our 1st ultrasound, talk about nervous! Kyle's family has no girls..none, nada..so I was SURE that I was having our 3rd boy, I even had a name picked out before our ultrasound...Kelson. But, the utlrasound proved me wrong...it was indeed a girl! Talk about excitement...I couldn't stop smiling, crying...every emotion you can imagine :o)


These past 4 years with Chloe have been life-changing, in the fact that she is NOTHING like the boys, which I was used too, she is VERY emotional, unlike the boys, she LOVES clothes and shoes, which the boys would run around naked if I'd let them. But, she is just like the boys in that they LOVE their momma like crazy..which I wouldn't have it any other way! Chloe has her daddy WRAPPED big time around her little precious finger! Whenever she wants something and I don't want to buy it..lol..I just tell her "ask your daddy" and she does and he gets it..so yes, she is a SPOILED BRAT! And, anyone who asks' her "who's number one"..she immediately answer DADDY! And, when I ask her, "how much does momma love you"..she's say "to the moon and back"..I know..sweet huh? I always tell people, we prayed SO HARD for a girl, I forgot to pray for a sweet, angelic, non-dramatic girl..hahaha!


All of our kids are our pride and joy, we couldn't imagine or have asked for better, well-behaved, loving kids. I thank God everyday for letting us be the parents of Keagen, Kade and Chloe. He gave us these gifts and it's our job to raise them the right way...and to come to know Him, which Keagen and Kade have thankfully already done!!!


So, I want to wish my SWEET, BEAUTIFUL, SMART, FUNNY GIRL...A HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY!!!
