So late last night Zach and I were unable to sleep and somehow started talking about lemons. Somewhere in that conversation Zach stated that there was no way I could eat a whole lemon without throwing up (sorry too much info). There was no way I was going to back down from that, I mean come on, lemons are small right? So I decided we should bet on it and he decides I should do it for a dollar, are you kidding me? That wasn't good enough so I said if I could eat one he would have to eat two. Today I let him pick out the lemons and not knowing at the time he picked out three of the biggest lemons not thinking he would have to eat any hahaha boy was he wrong. We decided to video tape this totally awesome challenge so no one can ever say I didn't do it. I cut my lemon up into five pieces, after eating the first one I was already gagging. Who knew lemons would do that? After reaching the third one I was shaking and just trying to control the gagging reflex. There was no way I was going to stop and not let Zach experience the pain. By the time I reached the last one Zach was freaking out knowing I was about to conquer the lemon. Surprise I actually finished it!! I just have to say I felt really bad for this baby and I will NEVER do that again. The absolute best part was watching Zach choke down his two hahaha! I have to say, Zach might rethink the next time he challenges me, I'm not one to give up!
So Zach and I have this system down where we take turns sleeping in every other day. Today was my morning to sleep in, which means that Zach normally takes them to the park or the gym. This morning he took them to the gym and came home early because Mikayla got injured. I guess as they were leaving Mikayla and Kaitlyn were playing on the treadmill and some how Mikayla got her fingers stuck underneath the treadmill. I took her to the doctor to make sure they weren't broken and thank goodness they aren't but she did sprain two of the joints. She has been a very unhappy little girl today. I hate it when they get hurt!!! Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
These were taken a few weeks ago. Zach threw Kaitlyn into the pile without knowing how deep it was, the poor thing sank to the bottom and we had to dig to find her!
So it has been forever since I have got on my blog. Being pregnant again and chasing after the girls just wears me out. Unfortunately, I had to take an extension to finish up my schooling but I'm hoping to have it finished before the baby comes! One good thing that has happened recently is Zach was given a special duty for the next three years working quality assurance on base. He has been home a lot more and helps out so much!! I'm extremely grateful for such a blessing.
Enough about Zach and I, the girls have been growing and changing everyday. It is so exciting watching them learn how to talk and understand what is going on around them. Watching them around the Christmas lights has been a blast, anytime we take a walk at night both girls will stop and stare at the lights for what seems like hours. I always get embarrassed when the people who live their open the curtains and give us this weird look like "why are you in front of my home?" The funniest part about that is Kaitlyn is screaming "wow wee" over and over again, I'm almost certain that is why these people are catching us. Anyway, that is what is going on right now and I promise (mom) I will try and get on here more. :)
The girls HATE getting there picture taken, they refuse to look at the camera because of the flash so I thought I would take them out to the park last night and try there. I wanted the pictures to look somewhat winterish so I put there heavy coats on even though it was still 70 degrees when the sun went down. Poor girls, at least they had fun!
