Updates!!! :)

Well I know I have been kinda lax in blogging. I am sorry : ( Well I little update on things. First with the girls. Ally got an ear infection toward the beginning of November and went through 3 does of 3 different antibiotics. She just finished the last set about a week ago. She seems to be doing fine but we will see. Not much for Kyndal going on. Still crazy, LOL.

Well for me. I has recent eye appt and an appt with my neurologist this week. We dicided to start on a Medicine call Diamox. It a kind of water pill that will reduce the fliud behind the eye, in the brain and the fluid that the spinal cord is make. So that what we are doing. Now we are just praying for no side affects from the med. It has a 1 in 100 change for kidney stones. So pray for none of those.

Last night witht the freezing rain we lost power at around midnight. Luckely we have a generator that powers the furnace, water pump, lights in the kitchen, microwave, and the fridge. So we have been very lucky. Since we heat with wood we have stayed warm. Its a little darker than normal but kinda fun. There is a power outlet by the breaker box that we plugged an exstention cord into and are now about to watch a movie. So we have TV. :) I don't think that really counts for roughing it. If anyone wants to come get a warm shower and you wan make it up our hill, come on!! :) I took some pic of our road when we went out this afternoon. I will put them up later. Even though it sucks it was kinda pretty outside. :) There were about 4 power lines down on one of our roads.

Anyway, hopefully I will stay up now. I was doing so well too. I am a slacker I know. LOL Well I'm off to watch Horton

STUPID computers or STUPID ME!!!

Okay well I was getting Ally ready for bed and I put on her patriotic onsie for her to sleep in. It made me realize that one of the things I lost when my computer crashed was ALL of my pics from our camping trip during the 4th of July, No Happy Harbinger Pics. I can't find them anywhere online either, no I must not have posed them anywhere. UGH I am soooo upset. I took some really cute ones of the girls in the red, white, and blue out fits and Ally with Shara's hat. Also with there letter shirts that they made. UGH I am REALLY P.O.ed. Stupid Computer, or Stupid me for not putting them online. I don't I ever send them to anyone. But in case I sent them to you and you still have them, send some back this way PLEASE!!!!

Ally 7 months

Ally turned 7 month on my birthday, June 6th. It seems like she is doing thing a little slower that Kyndal did. She isn't crawling yet. That doesn't really keep here from getting around though. She also isn't pulling up, she does try but isn't successful yet. She is starting to get a nice little scream when she isn't getting what she wants thought. :) But we still love her!!

These are 2 pics of Kyndal around the same age. I love to push up pic. She still likes to do push ups. Crazy kid. :) Sorry for the poor quality. Our camera was not as advanced as it is now.

ALLY Check Up

Ally was 4 Months on the 6th she went to the Dr on Thursday she is now 15lbs 13oz and 24 inches long.

3 Months Old

Well the past 3 months have gone by really fast. I really can't wait for next month when we have absolutly nothing going on. No basketball every night!! I have to admit that I really really enjoy doing stuff with and at the school but I don't know if it was going from having a Baby, to an always crazy One Voice then to Christmas. But Since the beginning thing have just kept rolling along no slowing down or you'll get run over. So that said............

Ally just turned 3 Month on the 6th so I thought I would do a little comparison. of the girls. Now the pics are exactly taken at 3 months but close enough. :)

Kyndal at 3 Months
( with your first child you actually take them ever month or so and get professional pics done, with your second you get sloppy! )


Allyson "Ally"



They both hit the chubby stage at the same time. :) It seem that all babies go through the chubby stage and grow out of it in a month or so. Of coarse some don't ever grow out of it, lol :) But mine WILL!!!!!! :)

Loving Two

I walk along holding your 3-year-old hand,

basking in the glow of our magical relationship.
Suddenly I feel a kick from within,
as if to remind me that our time alone is limited.

And I wonder: how could I ever love another child as I love you?

Then she is born, and I watch you.
I watch the pain you feel at having to share me
as you've never shared me before.

I hear you telling me in your own way,
"Please love only me."
And I hear myself telling you in mine,
"I can't," knowing, in fact, that I never can again.

You cry. I cry with you.
I almost see our new baby as an intruder
on the precious relationship we once shared.
A relationship we can never quite have again.

But then, barely noticing,
I find myself attached to that new being,
and feeling almost guilty.
I'm afraid to let you see me enjoying her -
as though I am betraying you.

But then I notice your resentment change,
first to curiosity,
then to protectiveness,
finally to genuine affection.

More days pass,
and we are settling into a new routine.
The memory of days with just the two of us is fading fast.

But something else is replacing those wonderful times we shared, just we two.
There are new times - only now, we are three.
I watch the love between you grow,
the way you look at each other, touch each other.

I watch how she adores you - as I have for so long.
I see how excited you are by each of her new accomplishments.
And I begin to realize that I haven't taken something from you,
I've given something to you.
I notice that I am no longer afraid to share my love openly with both of you.

I find that my love for each of you is as different as you are,
but equally strong.
And my question is finally answered, to my amazement.
Yes, I can love another child as much as I love you - only differently.

And although I realize that you may have to share my time,
I now know you'll never share my love.
There's enough of that for both of you -
you each have your own supply.

I love you both. And I thank you both for blessing my life.

Camera Pics

First of All I had forgotten that my brother had made Kyndal a website when she was born and i put a lot of my pics on. So i was able to get them all off of there and not have to fight with taking them off of the PC. Second looking at all of them made me REALLY appreciate our new 'high tech" :). Cause probably almost half of the photos that I had uploaded to her website where blurry. Which really sucks. So at least Ally will have nice baby pics. :)

Kyndal's website that has been kinda forgotten.

Comparing......

Ally at Birth.....

Kyndal at birth..... Just remeber there size difference at birth of 3 lbs. They do look alot alike. I can see Ally in more of Kyndals older pics but I'll wait till Ally gets to that age to share those. Don't wanna spoil the suprise. :)


Well this is Ally at Christmas a little before 2 months.


This is Kyndal not sure exactly when but around the same time. Probably a little older. LOL Ally has the same pants on today as Kyndal does in the picture.

First set of Shots.

Well Ally had her first set of shots today. She did not like them at all. It was a really pathetic cry. One of those where you just wanna hold them cause its like they are just whimpering. I never know weather to cry or smile. Cause its kinda cute. Maybe I smile to keep from crying, thats it. But anyway she survived. She is now 11 lbs 1 ounce. and 23 inches. And well we played around a bit and Kyndal is 38 lbs and 41 inches. Just thought I do some comparing. Maybe tomorrow I will follow in Kristins footsteps and compare by pics. that means i have to find some of Kyndal most of hers where on our old computer and they are still there. But if I have one I'll have to scan it. So I'll see what i can come up with. Fun project!!!!

The Girls!!

Kyndal & Allyson
