Time flies when you're not having fun

We have been really busy here at the Black household. Life can get pretty crazy with two kids that are cranky at the same time. Let's see where do I start?

The binkie fairy visited Kierra and brought her a bike. It wasn't too bad getting her off of them and sometimes I would like to go back to the old days of less whining but then it would have been for nothing.

She looks a little handi in this photo but it's the best one we've got.

I think that Kierra has finally hit the terrible two's as well this month. I think I am going to loose it. Lots of crying and screaming and tantrums. I am running low on patience and some days would like to run away (or at least get a job). But then again some days she does such cute things. I made her a hideous princess blanket and the first thing she said was "oh my gosh!". She loves the thing. She has also been running around singing "I am a child of God" all day every day. That makes me proud.

Britta has become a little princess and a mamma's girl. Yes, finally a child that likes me. She has the biggest smile for you when she wakes up. She is just so darn cute you just can't stand it. She had her 2 month appointment this month and weighs a whopping 7lbs 6oz. She is on the same track as Kierra was.





We thought about putting our house up for sale but decided not to. We are really attached to our friends here and I would hate to lose them. So, since we changed our minds, I redecorated. I'll post pictures later since we aren't completely finished yet.

We also blessed Britta this month and have no pictures of the actual day but here is a picture of her in her blessing dress.

The zoo has been frequented this month as well. We bought a zoo pass so we have to get our money's worth. It sucks that it is so far away.

It's been a long time!

Sorry to those two people who check our blog frequently for new posts. I hadn't realized that it had been two months since our last post.

We have been so busy with the kids and working on our house that I just didn't feel like blogging. We have been adjusting to Britta and I think we kind of have a slight schedule for her. I think Kierra is still feeling neglected a bit though. We had to give her binkies to the binkie fairy. It was quite traumatic for her but I think she is over it.

Hmm, what else has been going on? We blessed Britta today and I must say that she was the cutest baby being blessed. Richard did a good job and so did she. I would post pictures but as we didn't get any (yes I am a moron, but apparently she pooped on her dress before we could get a family pic) I will have to get some from other family members. It's always great to have our families together supporting us. Too bad that we worked so hard on the yard only to have it rain.

I will post some pictures later!
