Brilyn

Hey there this is Brilyn. I am the special one that has big curls! And I love SOCCER a lot. Every Christmas I get SOCCER stuff. I think it's AMAZING. Let's move on now, I love the color is Orange because it's a bright color. I also have noisy sister's and one fun and fantastic brother. Then I have one 2 month old baby sister. Let's get back to me now. I am 7, turning 8 in May on the the 31st. I also love vacation, that's spending time with my family. I also think my new teacher Mrs. Paule  from Summit Academy is the BEST teacher I've ever known! Well here is another thing I have moved from Arizona to Texas  to Utah back here in  Arizona. me and my family want to move back up to Texas. And I love to play by my self. I am Mormon by the way. Well that's the things I can think of to tell you about ME!

The New Baby

November 25, 2013 is when Austyn Debria Dieu took her first breath. She weighted 7lbs 12oz. She saw her first light at 9:50. Austyn now weights 10lbs 10oz and is 2 months  11days old. Austyn's smiles light up my day whether it is a good, bad, happy, or a sad type of day. Her smiles make it better. I love Austyn so much words can't even explain. I knew the moment Austyn came in to my life we would  be BFF's for eternity. When she laughs I laugh. When she talks I talk back. I can't wait until we can go places just me and her. I will stand up for her, care for her, and most important I will love her. I love you  Austyn. You're fav. sis Shelby 

Life

Well, it is clear I allowed life to get in the way. There is so much to journal about. Jake got a job, we moved to Texas, we got a new van, we had a mini vacation, Brayden got glasses, Brayden started tackle football, Shelby started hip hop dance, Brilyn started soccer and Sky is in gymnastics. The kids started school and Shelby is getting baptized in three weeks. Since it is 11:30 at night, I will go into deeper detail on topics that need it hopefully tomorrow. All is good for now.

Just an ordinary day

Today was quite uneventful. Biked to breakfast. Came back and did laundry. Biked to lunch. Came back and put Maddie down for a nap that she of coarse did not take. Spent time with Beth and went to the library. Finished off the evening letting the kids swim and finishing off the laundry. We had family prayers and I read a book to the kids. Yup, that sums up my day. Uneventful.

Sick

So I didn't post last night because around 4:00 I all the sudden got massively dizzy. So dizzy it made me sick to my stomach. I threw up a couple of times. I went to bed to try and sleep it off. I tried to get up a few times but was just too dizzy and would get sick to my stomach more. I figured in the morning I would feel better. I did feel better but was still dizzy. Kelli called her friend who had experienced the same thing. She said to try Dramamine. I did and by 5:00 at night I wasn't dizzy anymore but exhausted.
I am also sick because of the roller coaster Jake keeps me on. I get so tired of him not listening to a word I say. I'm tired of him not seeing the whole picture. I just wish sometimes he would put what I say into consideration. I really hope my children find a mate that will listen to them in entirety and take what they say into consideration. I hope my children find someone they don't have to worry about communication problems with. This is a struggle I would not wish upon my worst enemy.
I now have to turn Tangled on and cuddle with my baby angel that has had a tough day.

Fun

Today we had a birthday party for Brilyn. It was small but enjoyable. She invited Kia our neighbor, Sammie her "boyfriend", the Martindales and of coarse her favorite cousins. We swam, had pb and jelly, Cheetos, grapes, watermelon, caprisuns, a rainbow cake with chocolate ice cream. She got barbies, hair flowers and a leap frog bingo game. She had so much fun with her little friends. I love her so much. It makes me happy when my kids are happy. She deserved today. I love you my Bribri.

Friday

So, I didn't post yesterday because there wasn't much to post. We went bike riding, swimming and more swimming. Maddie was up a lot last night. We went bike riding today, fed the baby ducks and more swimming. I made bread, went shopping for groceries, laundry, dishes, picked up and took Maddie for a hair cut. She really did a number on herself. The lady couldn't fix it unless she cut it like a boy. I told her I would prefer her to fix it the best she could without making her look like a boy. Maddie won't keep hair things in her hair so a boy cut wasn't an option. The lady did the best she could and Maddie still looks..........I still need a shower and tomorrow is already coming.
