My kids




I LOVE my children to pieces!! I think they are beautiful and oh so SWEET!! I have really been struggling with Jaylee lately. She has simply quit listening to Blair or I. She literally will ignore us and do whatever she wants to do. It is driving me crazy. She runs outside as she pleases, runs across the road as she pleases. No matter what punishment is put on her it doesn't phase her. I don't know what to do I am at my wits end!! Living with Blairs parents has been a blessing it really has, but Jaylee feels she can get away with anything at Grammy and Pacas. So I think we need to figure out something different! It is very very hard knowing my little girl is like this, she backtalks me all the time, and is so rude and mean! I just don't know what to do anymore. I know my sweet little girl is still there somewhere, she has just gone and hidden somewhere!

Max is a great baby, he loves to be held and LOVES to eat. He feels he could eat all day if I allowed him to. He lets you know when he is hungry and gets mad if it is not PROMPT!!! I am so happy I was able to breastfeed this time around. With Jaylee it was such a struggle. With Max it has been such a breeze. I LOVE IT!!!

Sometimes it is really hard to be a mom of two, and I applaud all you who have more, but I am learning each day, and loving it!

Linda loo,
Brigham is doing the same thing. I have realized that I have to be kind of mean and I've watched a lot of Super Nanny. I'm not kidding. I also have figured out that when I ask Brigham to do something, if he back talks or ignores me I have to get right in his face, use a stern tone and I physically MAKE HIM do what I ask. Even if there is a tantrum then next time he knows what to expect when I ask him to do something. Seth and I have very different parenting styles so it has been a struggle. And with Lucy, Brigham has gotten away with a lot because if I"m in the middle of feeding her or changing her I cannot be so "immediate" with my demands/requests. But I think of it like... would I rather be a little stern and him be safe or would I have him think I'm nice and he run into the road and get hit by a car. Sorry this is so long but I tell ya, I am going through the EXACT SAME THING! Good luck. I should call you sometime. I am in need of some girlfriend chit chat. If you cant tell. Later,
Abba

I love the new pictures. I can't wait to meet max. Of course he won't be a baby anymore and probably won't let me near him, but none the less.
Love you guys.
