Walking at 10 months

Published by Lene and Bry Family under on 1/16/2009
So Sariah has been walking for the past 2 weeks. She started Christmas day and has gotten better since. Now that she is walking she has beautiful bumps and bruises everywhere. She still is very beautiful but just a little purple from the bruises. My kids are on the small size so when anyone sees her walk they can't believe it. She looks younger than she really is. Both of my girls walked at 10 month, Conner waited until 1 year (which was fine with me). So now my day consists of thumps followed by crying, then I hold her and she won't let me put her down. I love when they learn to walk they learn everything else quicker it seems.

Can't keep anything clean

DVD HELP! My kids won't put the DVDs back after they watch a show and I just put them away and well were missing one. arrgg. I do try to get them to put them away after but they never do. Then when they pick one up it has finger prints all over. When they leave them out, Sariah now will pick them up and well everything she picks up goes in the mouth. So now we have scratched DVDs. I've tried to put the DVDs in a cabinet with a baby proof thing on, Conner figured them out pretty fast. He can even open the baby proof door knobs, that kid figures stuff like that out so fast. Kate doesn't know how to open the door yet.
If you have any ideas on how to keep these things safe that would be great but I guess nothing last forever. Oh Well.

Happy New Year!

Well We all stayed up for the new year. Everyone got a nap so everyone was up at midnight. Sariah and I were the first to go to bed. Kate and Conner liked looking at the fireworks on TV. I am so tired, with going to bed so late I thought they would sleep in, NOPE. Conner woke up at 8:30 like usual and then everyone else woke up too. Well I hope this is a great new year for everyone.
I have made my new year resolutions.
1. Start exercising (I'm sick of people that I've known my whole life not know who I am)
2. Read More, Less TV
3. spend more time with the kids (I know I'm home with them all day, but I want to do stuff with them)
4. take more pictures of the things we do together
5. go on a weekly date with Bryan (even if it's just a walk around the block by ourselves it will do us good)
So here is my list hopefully by writing it down and telling everyone I will keep to it this year.
2009 will ROCK!
