Welcome BACCCKK!

 
  Well HELLOO! It has been over 1 year since I blogged. For a few reason's..and I am embarrassed to admit the first one but.. lol Reese deleted my blogger app a while back from my IPAD and I couldn't remember any of my login stuff. Which wasn't even that hard to figure out now from my laptop. And also we have been so busy with life. We welcomed a precious baby boy SLATER JASON FITCH. We Moved back to Tri-Cities. I started doing cakes as a in home business. Birthday parties lots and lots of doctor appointments. Some lose of relationships with family/friends and some gain of it too.  Ahh it feel's so good to blog again. My kids have grown and I am so happy to watch it. Our little baby Slater is already 6 month old. I am cherishing every moment (well trying) with him. As weird as it sounds I already have been going through baby fever. NOO! This time I have accepted yes I do have baby fever..yes I would want another little girl but NO we will not have another. I also have accepted how great it is to see the kids grow up now and just be apart of that rather then starting over. I do look forward to the day my sister has a little one (hoping for girl!) but until then I am so content and so excited for my kids. Both kids will be starting pre-school this year too. I must say being a mom of 3 is busy. Very busy. I probably haven't been the best friend or family member because of it.  It's weird, I feel like with my kids growing up we are starting yet another chapter of life. And boy has it taken a toll. I have been pretty emotional at time with it. This Christmas was awesome. I was so happy I wanted to cry. It is so awesome when kids start to get involved and do all the fun stuff. I don't care how long my kids believe in Santa. I tell Jason the longer the better. Once you grow up and stop believing in the magic it's different. Let them be kids for as long as possible is my motto.
 
  Our family will be going on vacation in May to Disneyland. We are preparing for that for the next 5 months. Also have Reese's birthday in February. Jason and I decided to skip our usual spring trip to Vegas and take the kids to Disneyland. We will be driving down and taking about 8-9 days away. My sister will be flying down and meeting us there. We are super excited for this.  Also it will be in May so just kind that beginning taste to summer. Now after the Christmas we get to go through this dreaded (well at least I do) time of year. Possibly Snow and then like 4 months of cold bad weather. We haven't had a bad winter yet, but that anticipation for the kids. They want to get outside play and do park trips.  We also plan to go camping this summer as well. It's hard with 3 kids this young. You really have to choose what you do and when. Anyone with 3 little one's would understand. But I think camping is do-able as well. Reese is much more independent and a little easier now at times. Dallas is only improving so far with that. And Slater is the who cares stage he's just a long for the ride. As long as he's fed and clean he's happy.

  Jason and I have been GOOD. We don't get many moments outside of at least always having 1 child with us. We used to have a date night sitter. But we have agreed we just aren't comfortable at this point for other than family to watch the kids. We do a lot of things after the kids are in bed. He just had almost 10 days off from work, and both the kids and I loved it. I will say I am going to make a vow to try and get a sitter for at least a few date nights coming up.  It's really hard to step out of that parenting mode. We need to. We have been dieting too! My weight loss from this last birth has been slower but steady. Also I am getting the itch to run a lot..but not sure I want to start in the dead of winter now. Jason really helps me out a lot at home. It's hard work on both our ends. He works 10 hours a day, but also comes home and is ready to help out with whatever. I also work really hard with the kids and seems to never end. But also do cakes while they sleep. I lose a lot of sleep but that's okay because if it takes less time away from family time that's the goal.
