Alex's Birthday!

Alex's birthday was wonderful. He was so excited about his party and all of his friends coming. We started a few weeks early creating the shirts for the party. Alex's first comment was, "Mom, these are wicked cool!" I was so happy that he was excited about the shirts and happy that I was able to pull them off. I started with a picture of stud boy and his two girlfriends Faith and Flynn. He is so funny about these girls and so gentle and sweet with them. I know I am in for it when he turns 16!

Everything in the Julian household has turned into Superhero's! He loved his Spidey cake and blowing out the candles with Daddy!

I was lucky that he thought the day of his party was his birthday since we were going out of town. Who doesn't love two birthdays though. He enjoyed his actual birthday with a party at school and with Grandma at Chuckie-Cheese. I just can't believe that my little 5 pound baby is 4. I love you Alex!

Information I needed to know!

Alex gave me some medical information this morning that I must get into his permanent file. I asked him to clean his room and he informed me, "Actually, I am allergic to cleaning." Hopefully there is some medication for that.

Love you all!

Blessed

Yesterday my nephew Willie was injured badly by a horse. He was life-flighted to Cardinal Glennon and within 3 hours we knew that he was going to be fine. It goes over and over in my mind what could have happened and how blessed our family is that he is alright. As a Mother I hope that I never have to experience the fear that Andy and Sue must have felt yesterday. I just keep looking at the boys and thinking how blessed we are to have a happy and healthy family and how in just one second your life can be turned upside down. Hopefully we will all learn not to take anything for granted and to enjoy every moment that we have together.

Take care!

A day in the life.

My friend Julia did a blog about her day so I thought I would try a short day since they are always comical.
6:00- Wake up, both boys are waking up. Get everyone breakfast.
6:30- Aaron leaves, we wave goodbye and begin the day.
7:00- Alex hits Aidan because he knocked down his train. Time out.
7:30- Downstairs to watch Baby Einstein, Alex is running around in his Spidey suit. I'm trying to exercise.
8:30- Coloring upstairs. Aidan eats a crayon.
9:15- Aidan starts his nap. I finish my exercise while watching Dora with Alex.
10:45- I fall asleep with Alex, "I never do that- it had been a long week."
11:20- Wake up. Our good crystal glasses at each of our places at the kitchen table and 4 in my room. There is an open Orange Soda and Coke. "Alex said he was thirsty." (Makes sense?) "He made everyone a glass." ~I didn't know he knew how to open a soda can?"
12:00- Take a shower since were going out.
12:10- Aidan wakes up- Lunch time everyone...
1:30- Play down stairs. I check Ebay stuff and e-mail.
2:15- Boys take a bath.
2:45- While I'm getting ready Aidan finds a hairspray bottle without a lid. I thought it was broken. Anyway, all of a sudden I hear "pspspspspspsp". He looks at me crazy and shakes his head NO,NO,NO.
3:00- Call poison control they say it's fine.
3:45- Fix dinner for Grandma, and the boys.
4:00- Notice the reeds out of my $45.00 candle light jar are missing.
4:15- Alex finally brings them to me.
4:45- Grandma is here. Aidan is FREAKING out... (Until we leave).
5:30- Leave with Aaron for a night out. The rest is only for mature audience's...
Just kidding- kinda.

Well that's a peak into the stay at home Mommies day. I could have added some type of cleaning every 20 minutes and a bite from Aidan every 45... I wouldn't change it for the world...

Love to all!

What a Week!

Wow, what a week we had last week. Alex started it with a double ear infection, Aidan had rotavirus, I hade a sinus infection and as of today Aidan now has a double ear infection and Aaron is sick. Uck, is a good word for how we all have been feeling but a dose of goofyness came out Friday night when we took this picture.

Alex had a great time dying easter eggs and talking about the Easter Bunnies arrival.

Easter was spent going to church, going to my Uncle Roberts and hunting Easter eggs. All in all it was a fantastic holiday weekend. Now to get everyone well!

ALEX AT CHURCH:
Me- "Alex put your money in the basket."
Alex- Looks at the money, basket, then me, "I don't want to Mom."

It was taking too much time so we let the collection move on and then Alex gave his money to the usher. I guess he just needed a little time to let go of his cash!

Love to all.

Aidan's Party!

Wow, where to begin. It's been a wild week. We spent Aidan's actual birthday at the Magic House. The boys had a wonderful time and Alex keeps asking if we are going back. Aidan's party was so much fun. He was so happy and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Hopefully as much as I did!

Aaron was given a grill for his birthday. He wasn't very surprised but was happy it was a grill because he said he would have been disappointed if it was anything else. Thank you again Aaron for all that you do and thank you for making everyone so happy. (Aaron said he will grill for Alex's party)!!!

We'll all that's left is Aidan saying how happy he is and thank you for coming to his party.

Love to all!
Kim

Happy 1st Birthday Aidan!

This little light of mine,

My view!

Yes, he's hanging on to my leg.:)

Can you believe all of this SNOW?

Alex: "God, sent snow from heaven for Daddy's Birthday!"

Happy 30th Birthday!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful Husband. I am so grateful that you came into my life and appreciative for all of the gifts that you have given me. Thank you for everything.

We love you!
