growing up

The days seem to be flying by so fast lately! I just had my birthday two days ago! I'm 25! It's crazy..I feel like I just turned 21 the other day..and four years have passed :( I wish time would slow down a little. My babies are getting ready to be 2. It's so hard for me to actually admit to myself that I will never have another baby. I was going through the kids old clothes the other day and I was almost in tears when I saw the outfits the twins used to wear and how they used to be sooo big on them..or remember Mikhail and Makenna in their baby clothes and now they are four and five! I told Tim I was so sad and he said they have to grow up someday..we have to stop having kids someday. And I know he's right, but that doesn't change how I feel :( And the arguement that it gets easier the older they get doesn't really apply to me right now. Last summer was so much easier. The twins weren't walking so they would just sit in the stroller while we went places..bottles made everything better, and there were multiple naps a day. Now they are walking everywhere, they cry when we go anywhere, they rarely nap, and they want to eat allllll the time. It's just a lot more complicated this summer. I love seeing them explore new things and watching the grow. But the thought that before I know it they are going to be in school makes me sad.

Max is so sweet :) While I was sitting her typing he got up and gave Mady a bink :) He's really sweet! He is really good at sharing. Yesterday he was sooo rotten though. I came home from the pool with the big kids and I heard him SCREAMING in his room. Tim said that every time he went to get him out, Max was sitting right behind the door and everytime Tim would open it Maddox would slam the door shut. So I thought for sure that if I went up he would open the door for me..but nope! I had to sneak in past him, and when I did..he was SO mad. He hit me and threw an even bigger fit. Finally I convinced him to come out and he was fine. But lately little man has had such a big attitude!

The pool was soooo much fun with the big kids yesterday! That's how I'm going to have to take them to do things this summer..when Tim's home and is able to watch the babies I'll be able to take them out to do big kid things. But Mikhail was jumping in with NO floats! He was going under to get toys and swimming. I was so shocked! I'm so proud of him! He's such a little water bug :) Makenna is the exact opposite lol. Of course ;) She won't get her hair wet. She plays on the stairs. But she has fun and that's all that matters.

oopps just looked at the clock and it's time to get Mack ready for his tball game! More laters :)
