Big kids bed

On tuesday Max spent the whole night in his big boy bed! I'm not sure if he stayed in it or not because he woke me up in the morning crying at his door. But I put him to bed in the bottom bunk. He's always crawling out of his pack and play..so I figured he was ready for it. It's been a few days now, and he knows that that is his bed! I need to get the rest of the room put together so Mikhail can be on the top bunk now. It's so crazy. I still feel like he's my little baby, it's so hard to believe that he's sleeping in a real bed and getting ready to have a birthday in just little over a month. I figured Mady would still want to be in her pack and play for a while. But the next day I laid her down in Makenna's bed, and she slept there for her whole nap! She's sooo cute :) She will not crawl out of bed. She sits there until I come to get her. She knows that that's her bed, and she loves it! She's been sleeping in there ever since, even at night. My Mom is going to give me another bed just like it, my brothers..so that will be Makenna's bed. I really need to get the house put together and organized better. Both of those beds have drawers under them..I need to take advantage of that! I'm really loving this house :)

My Crazy kiddos!

So I sware I need to take a camera into Maddox's room with me when he's crying. He's always stuck in the craziest positions! I should make a book of all the ways he gets stuck. He gets stuck in the bunk bed ladder. The other day he was stuck between the matress and the bed. There's a cube shelf in his room that he's demolished getting stuck in so many times. The kid is crazy! Today I was trying to lay him down and he got stuck in the ladder..I got him out, shut the door and not even two minutes later..he was screaming again..I go in, and he's stuck in the ladder again? Kid is crazzzy! And when ever I tell him 'no' or he knows I'm mad at him..he gives me the sweetest kisses and cuddles..so it's impossible to be mad at him. He's just too darn cute for his own good.

Madelyn has been sleeping all day. She got up today at like 10am..wasn't even up for an hour..went back to bed..and is still there and its 235pm. She's teething really bad, and the poor girl prefers to just sleep through it. I think she's growing too. She's walking around the house all the time. Once she figured it out..she just took off with it!

Makenna I think might just be my crazziest kid out of all of them. She completely cracks me up with her..Turn this show mom..it's giving me an ear infection! She swares that when I put on a show she doesn't like it gives her an ear infection. I love the way she explains things to me. Like the other day I was trying to get her to want her ears pierced..and she freaked out and told me how much it hurts and that they put a HOLE in your blood. Lol she's so silly. She's also such a sweet pea too. She was telling me yesterday that for Mother's day she's going to pick me daisies, roses, and sunflowers, and danilions. Haha she's so sweet.

Mikhail went to safety town last week! It's crazy..I remember going when I was little. He loved it and learned some great things. That's really an awesome program for the kids. Makenna is so excited that it will be her turn to go next year. His graduation was so sweet. It made me realize how big he's getting though. I woke up that morning a little sad thinking that before I know it he'll be graduation from elementary school, then high school, and I didn't even want to think about college! I hate how fast time has to fly by..but at the same time..I really love all the new stages and phases we are getting into.

Tim, Mikhail, Makenna, and I have been making soy candles as our new family project. It is so fun and I really love it! The kids are amazed at how they turn out and that they helped me make them. We rented a table at the Creekside Farmers Market to sell our candles. Any money I get from them is going to go into other crafts and activities with the kids. It's good time that we spend together. They are going to help me sell them too!

They are really excited about the fireworks coming up this weekend. Last year they really got into them..so I'm really excited to see how they react this year :)
