Happy New Years!
I hope everybody has a
GREAT
2011!

Funny things that happened in our house
New Years Eve!

Emma: "I don't want to watch that movie!"
Alison:"Then just fall asleep and that will solve both of our problems"

Ryan has overtime tonight at the hospital so he came home
to get a couple things. When he was leaving I said
"See you next year!"
A couple minutes later Alison started crying
"I don't want to wait a whole year to see Daddy!"
I've been explaining "New Years"
to them all day and that we are starting
2011!
Well I guess it hasn't sunk in to her yet!
It was kinda funny.

Leah was on the computer and got on iPhoto
and found a picture of my mom feeding Natalie and
she said
"Alison look, My Grandma!"

MERRY CHRISTMAS
EVERYBODY!
LOVE,
THE KIRBY'S

Real Meaning of Christmas

Yes we are still alive and can you believe this year is almost over?
And only 21 days till Christmas!!!!
Anyways life has been a little crazy busy so that's why I've been neglecting
my blog. I hope life gets a little easier next week...
Yeah Right!
Just a quick update

Natalie is walking! Yeah!
My first two babies started walking at 9 months, but the last two...
we'll just say they take their time!
So with her walking, she is all over the place.
She has been a lot of fun to watch her while she is checking things out around here.

Leah is going to start potty training VERY soon.
She is wanting a new diaper every time I turn around.
She is starting to talk more and we all know how fun it is
to figure out a toddlers words!
It's so cute when she says
Natalie. When she says the L her tongue comes out of her mouth.
Other then that she has been all over the place playing with her sisters and
making sure everyone is in order.

Emma is doing really well in school. I volunteer for her class
every Monday and it's fun to watch her. She's Very quiet and
does exactly what the teacher ask the kids to do.
But when she comes home...that's a different story!
She is my "girly girl"
She'll put on her play high heels and walk shaking her hips!
It's so funny!

Alison is also doing really good in school.
She is reading very well and loves to read stories to her sisters.
Alison is my little worry wort. Leah and Natalie have been sick
this last week and I can't remember when it was
but I was taking the older girls out and Alison started crying
cause she thought daddy was taking Leah to the hospital!
She loves her sisters!
She also lost her first tooth last week.
And the tooth fairy brought her a chocolate bar, $1.00 and a quarter.
(The tooth fairy forgot and when she came into my room in the morning
telling me her tooth was still there I just about cried! So I had Ryan
cuddle with her so I could help the tooth fair out!
That's why she got the candy bar.)

So there's a little update on what's been going on around here!
Now I have to go and switch the laundry!
:)

This is for Katy!

Here you go Katy,
It's 9:33pm and do you see the mess behind me?
But I had to post for ya!
Now I have to go make
3 pumpkin rolls
and put the girls to bed.


There is more to come.....

Never EVER turn your back on
a Brand New Bottle of Paint
and a
2 Year old!

Thank goodness it didn't hit the floor!

Feeling Crafty!

I saw these online somewhere,
and of course I couldn't find it this morning but I thought I could figure it out!
and I had everything!
So today with the girls home all day, I decided to get crafty!

Leah and her "Potty"

I asked Leah where her diaper was and she got off the seat and bent over.
I couldn't stop laughing over that one!

We bought this for Leah and are attempting to potty
train her in the Very near future.
She sits on it all the time and says
"I go potty"
And a couple times I think she actually potties while she's
on the seat. It's so funny to watch her.
And this turtle goes with her
Everywhere!
It even sat next to her bed when she went to sleep.
Now I need to break her of that habit when she uses it for real!

Our First Pumpkin Carving

Ryan drew a face and when her cut it out...it looks totally different!
It was pretty funny! The girls lost interest Very fast when they had
to clean out the pumpkin, so next year we are just getting
one pumpkin and maybe we'll just color a face on it!

Trunk r Treat!

Blake handcuffed Alison!

Trunk r Treat!

We didn't buy Natalie a costume so Ryan
drew this on her turtle neck!
Very impressed!
And I made her bow.

The girls playing the cake game!

Of course I didn't get a lot of pictures
but here's the ones I took at our Trunk r Treat.
When we were getting the girls ready Ryan asked me what I wanted
to be and I told him I wasn't dressing up.
He said Everyone is dressing up and I was
being a party pooper!
So I got the Halloween make-up and tried to make a joker face...
well, there's my joker face and my horns.
I can't believe Ryan let me out of the house look'n like that!

When Natalie was eating lunch she somehow got Leah's water bottle.
So funny watching kids play with their food!
And it's sooo cool that the food was in the
bottle and not all over the floor!!!

Leah tucking her "Baby" in at 10pm....

Leah had a hard time sleeping Monday night
(well she was screaming so loud that we let her stay awake
so the older girls could sleep!)
And I was folding laundry and Leah took a couple for her babies.
It was really cute cause she was tucking them in and giving kisses and talking
to them. So cute!!!!
