Since I put up pics of our indoor cats, I thought I should also show you our outdoor dogs. Not sure I can find a pic of Lady, she is a mix of Caviler Spaniel and Brishion. She is basically Daneo's pet :) Now Daneo is my favorite dog of all the dogs I've ever owned. Yes he's huge, but he is the most gentle, sweet, and highly entertaining! You should see him gallop around the back yard when he is excited! I named him Daneo not only because he is a great dane, but because that's my hubby's nick name :)

Our Kittens!
Maddy was very scared to start kindergarten, so we promised to get a cat as an incentive once she got settled into school. After a couple of rough days, she finally made some friends, and by the end of the week, she loved school. That very day, we went to pick up our kitten. We couldn't decide which kitten we liked best, so we adopted these two siblings. Great decision because they keep each other occupied when the kids are not playing with them! We have not given them names yet, but the kids keep calling them Blackey and Greyey, so I guess that's their names!

I'm now in the world of blogging!
I've always wanted to start a blog, but after reading other people's blogs I thought mine would be so boring to read. All I ever do is get up in the morning make breakfast, do as much cleaning as I can with a 5 month old, and pick up kids from school. Help with homework, make dinner (if Dane's lucky), then get the kids off to bed. All this just to start over again the next day.
"I believe I can see the future... Every day is exactly the same"
But then I realized something the other day. Maddy was doing something absolutely hilarious! She was helping her new kitten reach a bug at the top of a window so she could bat it and try to catch the bug. She kept saying "Come on you can do it, I know you can!" She's so stinking cute! I told Dane about it later, but we'll never remember something like that years from now! I enjoy our kids so much and they are growing up in front of my eyes. But those memories just won't stick for us or possibly them! I take tons of videos and pictures, and this will add just one more thing for me to look back on to cry in joy! So this blog is more for me than for anyone who wants to read it. So please don't patronize me for spelling or grammar errors. Remember I was the adrenaline junky that went to the police academy to be a 911 dispatcher and babysit cops, tell firefighters where to go, and help deliver babies over the phone (came so close to this happening to me). I skipped out on the 4-year degree and followed my dream. Then later a whole other dream of having a family became a reality. Dane and I never travel (except for our yearly run to Disneyland), we don't own expensive cars, and our house is tiny and always a mess thanks to 2 and soon-to-be three messy kids. I hardly read, heck the only ME time I get is watching ER reruns thanks to our DVD player! You're very welcome to come and see what's new with our family and all the crazy things my kids are doing! Family is the most important thing to me! I love being my kids' mom!

Samuel's first food!
Samuel started on peaches last week (5 months old) His first reaction was hilarious! He squinted his eyes shut and shook his head! But after a few more bites he decided this was a good thing! Ofcorse the whole family pitched in to "help". Unfortunately, he only got to try peach for a couple of nights before he came down with a cold :( He still fighting it, but should be eating peaches again real soon!
