Shut Up!

Kairi woke up this morning laughing. She's always so happy.

This morning while we were listening to music on my phone, an advertisement came on and the whole time it was on Caitlynn was yelling shut up. I really shouldn't find it funny but I do.

Kairi slept in her crib for the first time. Caitlynn is excited her sister is going to sleep in her room. I guess its there room now.

Caitlynn took her playing camera stood in front of Kairi and said " say cheese baby" I thought it was super cute.

Kairi decided she didn't want to go to bed and so we just laid her in her crib because sometimes she will just pass out that way. Well tonight she decided to make tons of noise. So I worried with this being her first night in there it would keep Caitlynn up. Daniel went in and got Kairi and what was Caitlynn doing? She had her head covered up. Man she learns fast. 

Thats about all I can remember that happened today! Out lives are not all that exciting!

It's an Afton Thing!

So in true Afton fashion I don't last long at doing things I say I will. I just get lazy and the girls haven't been doing anything to exciting though they are still super cute and silly. I will keep trying to write things about them though. To hold you over till tomorrow when I will actually write a post here is something Caitlynn told me today:
Me: I love you!
Caitlynn: I love bird (she was playing angry birds)

On to Phase 2!

If I ask Caitlynn if she loves mama she always says, "yeah and dada." Then I reply "oh you love dada too" she says, "yeah and baby." Well today I asked who else she loved and expected her to say grandma or someone. What was her reply? "I love my kitty cat." (talking about Dexter)

Caitlynn wanted a hat. So I told her if she wanted one she had to find one. Next thing I know she had one of my bras on her head.

Every time Caitlynn watches The Backyardigans she tells Pablo goodbye (I guess the others do not matter) Well today as she was going that she turned to me and said, "Mama Pablo has to go eat a snackkkkk." She has a problem with ks. She cracks me up.

Kairi was actually good today. I was surprised since she has never behaved well after shots. She was her normal happy self and I love it!

Caitlynn on the other hand was not that great today, especially  towards bedtime. Colette brought her home lots of bead necklaces from a Scouts thing well Kairi had one of the necklaces and Caitlynn did not like that. I told her she could share one of them or I would take all of them away. Well she didnt want to share so it seriously took me like two minutes to wrestle the bead necklaces from her (the whole time while she was screaming). Then it took me and Daniel to brush her hair because she was fighting so bad. Then she grabbed on to the door on the way into her room and Daniel was pulling at her feet trying to get her to let go. I seriously just laughed because I didn't know that happened in real life. Goodness gracious! Like our friend Skylar put it, "Terrible twos are just phase 1." I am not ready for phase 2! Please pray for my sanity and patience in the next year!

Not much has happened today. I have to go talk to a member of the Bishopric tomorrow. Why? I am not sure. I guess I will find out tomorrow!

Wow today was pretty uneventful but I think the last part made up for that. Now to go finish my last assignment in Art History and then I get a 4 day break from school! Oh yeah I am excited!!

Love My Girls!

 This morning when I got Caitlynn out of her room she got in trouble because she has a special book off the book case and it was torn (I am not sure she did that though). Well I got a little angrier then I should I do this sometimes. So I was telling her I was sorry and that she needs to not play with things that are not hers and for some reason I said, "Do you still love the mama?" Okay I know why I said that I feel like she is going to hate me because I am so mean or I am going to ruin her or something. Well after I said that she jumped into my arms for a hug, and gave me a giant kiss! It melted my heart! She is a sweety!

Caitlynn it's starting to actually color. She has always colored but now she's starting to not just scribble.  Shes trying to stay in the lines though she hasnt mastered it yet. It makes me happy and sad all at the same time because it shows how much shes really is growing up.



While I was playing a Mario game because I couldn't do much else because Kairi has been kind of grumpy and just wants to be held. Caitlynn was watching me and every time I did something good or Mario would make noise she would clap.

Caitlynn is an awesome helper. If I ask her to go get something most of the time she will go get it for me. Today is played with Kairi while I got ready. She is a trouble maker sometimes but she is a pretty good kid.

Kairi went and got shots today. Yeah I wasn't happy about that. Why? Well Kairi does not handle them very well and its grumpy for days after. Well she was already grumpy so how is she going to be now? I have no idea but I am kind of scared.

Kairi is now: 19.6 lbs (21%)
                    26 1/2 inches (75%)
She is growing so much! She defiantly going to be bigger then her shorty of a sister and most likely me as well when she gets older.

Kairi hates shots and screams and screams. When Caitlynn got them at this age she would scream with the first poke and then was fine, but we do say that Kairi is the softy. Well today we had to take Caitlynn with us to the doctors because we didn't have a sitter and the appointment was at 3 and Daniel gets off at 2:30 so we had to hustle. Well not only did Kairi scream so did Caitlynn because her baby sister was crying. I love that Caitlynn is so protective of her. I hope it stays that way.

Why do kids fight naps? I cannot figure that out. I would love to take a nap! Well Caitlynn hasn't taken a nap  during the day for awhile but she was crying a lot and being whiny plus rubbing her eyes so we decided she needed one today. Yeah biggest fit ever! How big? She bit her dad and almost drew blood. She never does that! If someone says 2 year olds are hard obviously has not had a 3 year old!

Caitlynn woke up from her nap crying so I opened her door and she sat in there for about 5 minutes till I asked if she was going to come out. Then she came out cuddled next to me and then fell asleep again. She is so cute! No matter how much she is a brat sometimes I love her. I especially love when she is sleeping because she is so peaceful and cute. I just want to hug her and hold her when she is asleep. I still have a hard time thinking I am a mom,even though I have been for 3 years almost. I love it though!

I am not sure what else they did because I went to a baseball game with Kristina because it was the last one and I really wanted to go to a game. FYI I have an amazing husband to let me go! Anyways Daniel did tell me Caitlynn at dinner kept trying to dip her bread stick in icing. She is so silly! I wonder the crazy things they will do tomorrow. 

3 in one day!

I posted 3 posts in one day! Thats impressive for me. I just figured I would start off my great idea today. I didn't write stuff down but I will try by best to remember all that they did.
Caitlynn this morning gave her favorite stuffed cat to Kairi. That showed me right there how much Caitlynn really loves Kairi. She won't even let me touch that stuffed cat.
Caitlynn is starting to dance a long with the kids shows she watch its great fun to watch.
I was pretty sure Hell froze over today because Caitlynn actually ate dinner.
Kairi totally freaked out when Daniel was holding her and he was playing the 3DS. She thought that was the coolest and funniest thing ever!
Every time Caitlynn hears a dog bark she yells, "SHUT UP DOG!" I know I probably shouldn't let her say that but it cracks me up.
I took pictures of Kairi today and I was trying to bribe Caitlynn to let me take her picture and no matter what I asked if she wanted something she told me no. She even said no to ice cream (which never happens) Then as we were going to go inside she told me, "I go chesse!" She kind of let me take her pictures and then when we got done she yelled, "YAY pie!" (one of the bribes)
As Caitlynn was going to bed she wanted a certain baby so Daniel told her to come out and look for it and she came out and said, "hmmm." While she had her finger on her chin. Shes a goof!
I think that is all that happened today that was worth mentioning. Oh and I have the most beautiful girls on the whole planet! :)

Finally!!

I finally got my blog looking some what nice! What do you think? I like it! :)

Light Bulb!

I have really wanted to write more on this blog but truth to be told I have been having a hard time knowing what to write about because our lives are not that exciting. It would be like "So we sat at home again, I did school work played with the girls and then tried to clean." Seriously that is how my average day goes lol. But then it hit me this morning when I wanted to update my Facebook status a million times because my girls are so cute, funny and just wonderful, I realized I need to share these things with people some how so they could share my joy, laughter and my OMG moments. Thats when I decided I could write it on my blog! I could use my fancy smart phone and write down when they do something I think is great/bad enough to share and then at the end of the day I could come write it down on here! What do you guys think? I think its going to be great and then maybe at the end of each year I can make a book or something that way we will always remember what they did when they were little because they are growing so fast! I mean Kairi is 6 month old and Caitlynn is almost 3. I don't think that I will change the name of my blog or anything but its going to be mostly about Caitlynn and Kairi and maybe me and Daniel if we do something exciting (which doesn't happen often). I can't wait to share the things my daughters do with all of you because they are pretty amazing even if they drive me crazy. :D

Time Time Whose Got the TIme!

I am not sure if anyone really follows this but I just wanted to write to say that I promise one day I will keep up to date (or try to at least). I am just not sure where time is going. It seems like I am always doing a million things at once. Being a mom of 2, trying to keep up with the mess, school and taking/editing pictures I really have no time. I haven't even been playing games I have really been wanting to play! I have a new Kingdom Hearts game I haven't even started yet and a book series that I really want to read and I haven't even done that! I guess that just means I am starting to get priorities in order. So if one day things slow down I promise to start posting for the few people who follow me.
I really do not know where time has gone though, Kairi is almost 6 months old and Caitlynn is almost 3. I wish they would slow down but I do enjoy watching them grow and progress. Times are crazy but them and Daniel keep me sane and I am so thankful to have the 3 of them! Life is grand even if it is busy, crazy and sometimes irritating I still love the life I live.
