The girls are in love with these skirts that we get from halo haven. I ordered some more and cant wait for them to get here to have pictures together.

Caitty bug

2012-01-25T12:30:00.000-08:00

So Caitlyn got to be the helper all this month at school. And after a long dr appointment yeasterday she was happy to get back to school. She came home with a book that all her class mates had made a pcture of her for her. she loves it. And a paper that her one on one aid Misty help make to tell the class a little about her. Caitty wrote it on her talk box and Misty wrote it down. This is what it says....

"Shadow is my dog. I have two little sisters. My favorite color is purple. I want my own horse some day. I like to watch Pooh and Mickey Mouse. I LOVE Pizza. My birthday is in the winter."

I thought it was a cute little poster and her class has some very artistic kids in it.

As for a cetch up on Caitty the Dr says that she is having epilepsy (sezures). They will be starting her on a med soon to help control them. The good news to all of this is there was no brain damage casued by them. And we will be able to wait awhile untill seeing dr clark again.

My girls

2012-01-21T12:40:00.000-08:00

So I have been going back over pictures and wondering if my girls really look alike. What do you think?

Kaci's crew

2012-01-21T12:30:00.000-08:00

Well Kaci finally has her own crew just like Caitty's only problem is Kaci's crew is a lot bigger size wise so they dont get to go alot of places. But they always get to go to bed with her.

happy new year

2012-01-05T20:21:00.000-08:00

Caitlyn came home with the hat and wistle from school. She showed us that you count down from 10 say happy and blow the wistle. It was quite a hit for both girls.

Christmas news letter 2011

2011-12-19T19:49:00.001-08:00

Hello Everyone,

So Christmas has once agian snuck up on me and boy am I racing to get a few things done. I am so late trying to get Christmas cards out I decided to write a little note for our family and friends to see.

This year has seemed to fly by quite fast. As a family we got to welcome home my brother from serving his mission for the church in Tennesse. It was nice to see him after two years. The girls enjoyed the escalater at the airport and it seemed to provide Kaci with some intertainment as she waited for Uncle Ty's plane.

In the summer we had a little scare. Our baby girl tried to come a little early at 27 weeks. So while I got put on bed rest the girls got to go to Fruitland and spind some time with Grandparents and Uncles and Aunts. We were very greatful that our families were able to help us out and take them for a whlie and it was nice for the girls to be able to spend some time with family.

Caitlyn turned 5 in January and later in August she started kindergarten. It was a little hard on mommy for her to start and a little rough on her for a while. Things started to go better after mommy and daddy went to school to help them learn alittle bit more about Caitlyn and set her schedual. Once her schedual was set she is doing really well. Her P.E. teacher is hoping to start and elementry track and field team and make Caitlyn one of the runners. He really seems to enjoy how well of a runner Caitlyn is and how much she enjoys P.E. She has a "talk box" that helps her to communicate with her teachers and peers and at home she uses it to read or play games. At school she also has an I-Pad which she runs better then the teachers. She is injoying all the work but the social part of school is still hard on her.

Kaci turned three in July and started preschool in Septermber. She has struggled with going to school sence she isnt much of a morning person, but now with her meds she is sleeping a little more at night and starting to kind of cetch on at school. She was diagnoised with moderate autism in october. So now we are trying to make sure that like her big sister Caitlyn she is getting all the early intervention that we can for her. Her laungauge is improving a little bit even though I am really tiered of being told no for every thing but her ability to count to three and sing every Disney song to Snow White is amazing. She is starting to enjoy Dinasoure books and painting even though most of it ends up on her face.

In October we welcomed a new addition to our family. Another beautiful baby girl, Piper Alex Walk. She was born on October 11th which happens to be Joel and mine annerversery. She had giving us quite a few problems but came into this world heath and has been a great little baby. Kaci is starting to enjoy her and Caitlyn is finally talerating her.

hope every one has a wonderful Christmas.

Piper Alex Walk

2011-10-22T11:44:00.000-07:00

Well Piper has finally decided to join our family on October 11th. Well to tell the truth she didn't have much of a choice. I ended up needing a c section becasue the cutie was all turned around and stuck in my hip. Every thing ended up going smoothly and Piper is a wonderful little baby who happens to sleep more then big sister Kaci. Which we are working on.

cherrios

2011-10-22T11:41:00.000-07:00

I was wondering why I couldn't find the cherrios one day, guess what I found them.

peanut butter

2011-10-22T11:23:00.000-07:00

When peanut butter goes up in price we are going to be in so much trouble. Kaci eats it, wears it, and decorates walls with it. Shadow loves her for it and mommy is getting better at a faster clean up time.

Well the awesome ladies that I work with at Children's Resource Center threw me a baby shower. It was a lot of fun and then gave me a gift for Caitlyn and one for Kaci. They were really cute blankets. Princesses for Caitty and Fairies for Kaci! They love them, thank you all so much.

you know Kaci is sick/not feeling good when she is doing this.

Crazy day

2011-09-24T15:32:00.000-07:00

This week here in Worland was homecoming week. Were all the schools get to particapate. They had pajama day, dress as your favorite person, crazy day, and then black and orange day. We didnt let caitty do pajama day just cause I didn't want her to get the idea that she got to wear pj when she wanted too. And we dont have a winny the pooh costume for her so she couldnt be her favorite person ;) but we let her do Crazy day. Needless to say a tie dyed shirt and crazy hair do was as crazy as Caitty wanted to go. All the crazy activities though did throw Caitty for a loop for the week.

Caitty and daddy

2011-09-24T15:27:00.001-07:00

A few of the fish that Caitty and Joel caught.

Caitty's small fish she caught.

joel took Caitty fishing the other day. I sent the camera with them but Joel didnt take any pictures. They went up to sunshine and Joel told me that as soon as the car door was opened for Caitty she was off in the water. Caitty did manage to cetch and real in her own little fish but after that she became more interested in netting the fish and making Joel and Josh do the rest of the work.

Kaci's chair

2011-09-24T15:24:00.000-07:00

this is Kaci's new place that she likes to sit. she will turn on the window ac and lay there for a while. No one dares to sdit in the chair when she does this in fear of being jumped on.

hahaha

2011-09-24T15:21:00.000-07:00

Joel will kill me if he ever finds out that i posted this picture but i couldnt help it, e fell asleep while reading the news. must been boring news.

Pouting for daddy... yes mom does become chopped liver on some days.

Cleaning Kaci

2011-09-24T14:16:00.000-07:00

Usually I am the one cleaning Kaci off from playing in the mud or flour or other substance that she just find fun to make a mess. But the other day it was Kaci who was helping me wash off the table. Such a nice helper.

cookies

2011-09-24T14:12:00.000-07:00

One thing I have learned about Caitty is she loves to cook. she is good about reading the directions and helping you put them in a bowl and stiring them by hand. Boy she hates the mixer. But she can make a good cookie:)

One thing

Tange and weat thins

2011-09-24T14:04:00.001-07:00

Tange and weat thins make a great combonation dont you think?

water kid

2011-09-24T13:22:00.000-07:00

It isnt a bad thing to have water kids until they learn how to turn the house on...

a day of painting

2011-09-24T13:19:00.000-07:00

Some saturdays Caitty doesnt care that there is no school but on those rare days that she does care we end up painting all day and no matter what Kacis art work always ends upon her face.

Oh Kaci...

2011-09-24T13:06:00.001-07:00

2011-09-24T11:13:00.001-07:00

This is Caitty and her talk box. She got it from school and at times is more of a toy then helping her to communicate with those around her. But we will get their.

Stollen and Shared.

2011-09-23T14:33:00.000-07:00

Caitty and Kaci stoll some oreos but were good enough to share with eachother. Bigger question is how much more sneaky can these two get?

2011-09-23T13:58:00.000-07:00

I heard Caitty yelling for help theo other day from her room when i went to see what was wrong caitty had stuffed her legs into her pillow case and was unable to stand up.... hu quite the emergency.

2011-09-23T13:27:00.000-07:00

We had to have a party for the crew. Kaci had to get her own stuffed animal and hat cause Caitty wouldn't share. And foxxy was so nice and let Kaci have a bite of her brownie.

baby bird

2011-08-19T16:19:00.000-07:00

One day there was a little baby bird in our front yard that was hopping all around and couldnt fly. So like a mean person I cornered him into a tub and took him into the house to let the girls see him. They were in love with him and joel was having a hard time keeping it safe from Kaci. Sohe took the bird and girls back out to the front to realse the bird. Well jole got it out of the container but Caitty and her ninja like reflexes had caught it. We thought that she was going to squize it to death but she instide threw it up into the air and the little thing was able to fly into the tree. He is still hanging out in the tree and seems to be doing fine.

Girls get home

2011-08-19T16:10:00.001-07:00

Long post

2011-08-07T12:00:00.000-07:00

So it has been a while sense my last post, so I figured I would up date every one on what has been going on.

The fourth of July weekend is always one of those weekends that just isn't very good for my family, some one ends up at the hospital or some thing breaks or some thing bad happens. Needless to say it is more like our Friday the 13th. For example while I was engaged to Joel we took my room mate and friend four wheeling. My friend crashed the four wheeler with my room mate riding on the back breaking her pelvic bone. That same 4th we tried to go boating with family the next day and had some bad weather and almost sunk my uncles boat. We always seem to almost burn some thing down as well. This fourth of July my cousins boyfriend ended up in the hospital with a dislocated shoulder from four wheeling and I ended up being transported to Billings Montana for preterm labor. Yeah I am sure that you can all see what I am saying when I say the fourth just isn't my families weekend. Lucky for us though my parents were spending the fourth with family and my sister in Idaho falls. So my poor husband had to get in contact with them and pack for the girls and try to get them ready to go hang out with my parents for a while. So while he drove them to see my parents i got to ride in the back of an ambulance up to Billings. Which it really isn't that fun but for some one who hates to fly it beat the helicopter ride. At one time there was quite a few people who thought that this baby was going to be born around that weekend. I was only 27 weeks. And after having some really cool expensive ultrasounds done found out that the baby would most likely only weigh a whopping 3 lbs. Which is a little nerve racking for a mom who has 9lb kids. Any way we were able to finally get every thing under control and I got to go home. The girls how every got to spend the whole month of July at home with Grandparents and uncle Kevin and Uncle Ty and Aunt Courtney. Lets just say Lucy (Kevins dog) was probley glad when they finally left. She didn't really enjoy them taking all the spot light.

The girls seemed to have enjoyed their time with grandparents and family and now i finally have them home and Iam enjoying it. I will post some more pictures of the rides that I had with Joel.

top of the page are ones I stole from my dad. Kevin becoming Caitty's shopher. Kaci and Aunt Courtney celebrating their July birthdays. Every one hanging out on the tramp. Notice how thrilled Lucy is. Last one is of my siblings and me. I am six months pregnant in that picture and wasn't too long before the fourth of July.
