like me...or not

one of the really funny things is that no matter whether your children are biological or not, they just become a like you...i see it all the time in my jada.

the girl has some mad fashion style...which she totally gets from ryan. i do the hoodies and jeans, but mr. banana republic and jada are totally shopping buds.

and then there's the coffee...while staying with grandma, jada drank "coffee". ok, so it's milk with a little coffee to make it look different, but she loves loves loves "coffee". hmmm...wonder if you know anyone else in this fam who adores coffee?
and then there are things that i'm like..."yep, that's not us". especially when it's not the cute stuff...like when she gets her shoes on and this is what it looks like.
{i know, right? makes your feet hurt!}
...only better that this is the "fixed" version. yep, that's definitely biological.
{or that's what we're going with...come on, it makes me feel better!}
either way, she's really cute...and growing up so fast! right now, she's sitting with sofia in the cow chair and cuddling her...now that's a great big sis!

She is adorable. I don't know how children can walk with shoes on the wrong feet...my daughter does it and i tell her and she says it doesn't bother her, she doesn't want to switch them. Can you say strong willed?

JK is adorable. And i completely understand where you are coming from. My addi couldn't act more like me and her big sister if I had actually given birth to her. Maybe it's because we just love them so darn much! We are awful lucky to have such great kiddos!

IT really is amazing how many of our traits they inherit. They love us so much that they want to do what we do.

You're little Jada is quite the Princess. She is so beautiful.

Thank you for stopping today! Happy WW! :-)

There are quite a few of you with babies that I have been following for at least a year and I am always amazed how much they have changed. She just keeps getting more and more adorable.

random acts...GNO

over at GNO, there's a few of us who decided to challenge ourselves last week to perform a random act of kindness.   i talked with my girls and hubs about what we could do... we reserve some funds each month out of our giving to put towards a current or urgent need that we find.  i think it's important to let the kids see how we give as family...and they should be part of that decision too . as we were talking, and eating chinese...come on, you know there would be eating...i open my fortune cookie.  and this is it!! i was out getting a few minutes of alone time and decided to pay hubs forward by getting jiffy lube to do the oil change.  while i was there, i remembered how hard it was being a single mom.  i remembered that the little things, like oil changes, suddenly became bigger things and honestly, more expensive things.  *light bulb!!!* thomas rang me up for my oil change and asked if they had any scheduled appointments that i could pay for.  he looked at me a little odd......

tuesday tribute---for tuesday

go blog yourself has been on my reading list for quite sometime...and so i really came to love little tuesday whitt and her whole sweet fam and became involved in praying for them in tuesday's battle with that stinky neuroblastoma . tuesday's parents are totally amazing...they inspire me! although tuesday went to play with jesus not so long ago, there have been so many people that are changed because of the courage and strength and honesty of the whitt family. on the day of celebration of tuesday's life, a number of folks who couldn't make it out to the funeral, took their kids on a 'wagie ride', which was one of tuesday's fav things. we all posted up our pics...shared our experiences with each other...and hugged our kiddos a little tighter. my kiddos wagie ride is here . from that precious little tuesday and her honorary wagie ride, a blog spawned...of course...and it is dedicated to nothing more than, in their words, "to keep track of lives touc...

one lucky chick

i have been super blessed with a man who not only loves and adores me, but thinks his daughters are all queens deserving of the most love a daddy can give.  in this family, and with other special needs families, there are days that make being fully engaged, well, let's just say difficult. poop, for instance...it's still an issue in our house.  with kids 20, 12, 10, and 7, you would think that we were well past the poop problems, but we are not.  ASD (autism spectrum disorder) is a beast when it comes to poop. and here's a little insight on me...i'm a gagger, meaning the harsh smell of poop or puke makes be puke.  but the amazing hot hubs, he's a beast on the clean up.  poop on the walls...he scrubs it.  poop pasted on the toilet...he cleans it up.  poop on the shower curtain...he washes it.  and he does it without being nasty.  (he doesn't like it...but he does it.) so, when people see our fam and think it's all amazingly perfect and cu...
