On September 5, 2008 I gave birth to 4 beautiful babies Samantha, Bridgette, Theodore "Teddy" and Madeline. Nine days later on September 14, 2008 Madeline was called to Heaven. So begins my journey of raising my Quadruplets as Triplets. They will always be my Quads!!

Pink and Yellow 7 year old girls bedroom

My 7 year old was super excited for her very own bedroom. She wanted pink and since she is sassy we decided pink on the ceilings and in the closet and yellow on the walls. This is a picture when they were still painting the remodel.
 
 
 
She needs a seating area and we found the perfect zebra print chairs and added pink accent pillows to match the ceiling and closet. We also painted her dresser pink with leftover wall color.
 
 
This view shows the dresser and seating area before curtains and bed came in. I am currently painting a trophy shelf pink to hang above her dresser.
 
 
This is the bed that her and her older sister shared. She gets both pieces so she has a place for friends to sleep over. I painted the drawer faces with leftover wall color to match.


Closet view. Her rug is sitting in her closet we have to wait 2 weeks before putting down on her hardwood floors.

 
Looking into her room.


 Here is what the seating area will look like with the rug on the floor. She was so anxious to do something in her room before it was finished, so I had set the chairs up for a weekend.

 
Still needs a few finishing touches, but she is super happy with it. Much more space than what her and Alexis shared as their temporary bedroom, see that here: http://qbrat.blogspot.com/2013/02/new-temporary-big-girls-bedroom.html.

First Day Of First Grade!! Olivia

OK so every year I am in disbelief that my kids are actually older and time is flying by so fast. How did Olivia get to be a first grader. She will turn 7 in less than 2 weeks.
 
This year I am working at the preschool so the bus is picking the kids up there.
 
Alexis and Olivia Strike a pose.
 
 
Olivia is getting a bit hot and wants to show off her top in a picture.

 
Isn't the top cute??

 
We are actually waiting for the bus on a busy road, rather than our dirt road, which does not see much traffic.

 
But I got my first day of school bus picture!!

 
1 more please??

 
Olivia is taking a half day Spanish immersion class at school, so half of her day the teacher only speaks Spanish. So when she cam home from school she said. "Mom none of us understand the Spanish teacher, we don't know what she is saying, we don't know what we are suppose to be doing and we aren't learning anything!!"
 
Got to love that kid.
 
Thanks for checking in on us!!

First Day Of Kindegarten!! Olivia

Olivia was super excited this morning for school. I expected her to be quite the opposite and clingy. But she was ready to go. She picked out her outfit the night before. Soooo cute!!!





Being silly waiting for the bus.


She loves to pose.


Is the bus coming yet??


OK bye Mom. Love ya!!!



Her first dat. She said. "Mom why do they have all those toys we don't play much, we do alot of learning." 


In case you were curious about Olivia's lunch.

So grown up, and yet still so small

Sometimes I just stop for a moment and realize just how much time has gone by, my Olivia is quickly approaching 6 years old. And with her September birthday I got an extra year with her before Kindergarten starts. And today she had her meet and greet with her Kindergarten teacher. How did we reach this milestone already. My sweet little girl who is always at my side, my little shadow, my helper, in fact she is a mini me. I could not help but get choked up as she walked so independently and happy to the school. I found myself, oddly, longing for her to be attached to my leg saying "my mama"

Look at her confidently marching up to school.


Such a big girl ready to take on the world and go to elementary school. Yet, she seems so small standing at that doorway. I am not ready to send another one off on that big yellow bus. And there she stands looking so ready and proud.


This way mom, let's go meet my teacher.



Mom that's enough with the camera.


Just one more honey, just you and this wonderful woman who I will share you with this year. You will grow and learn so much. And I love you.


I know without a doubt this will be the hardest year yet for school, sending 2 of my babies off on that big yellow bus.
