Meet the Plus 4!!!

Since I am going to be writing about them I thought maybe I should introduce them :)

Zoe aka Zoe Bean, ZoBean:
Age:7yrs 7 months

Favorite T.V show: Good Luck Charlie
Favorite sport: Softball
What she wants to be when she grows up: A teacher who teaches def children with sign language 

  Zoe is amazing when she was born my life changed forever suddenly I wasn't living just for me I was living for her. I love every minute I get to spend with my Zobean she is just like me which is scary but very amusing.  She is very caring and nurturing she is the little mother hen around here with an attitude from hell like me. She just finished 1st grade ending the year with all A's and B's.  I couldn't be more proud of the awesome sweet smart girl she is growing up to be. When I ask her why she is so special to me she says "because I was the baby that made you a mommy"



Landon aka Bubba, Bud
Age 5 yrs 10 months
Favorite color: Green
Favorite T.V. show: Bob the Builder
Favorite sport: TBall
What he wants to be when he grows up: Fireman

 Landon is a sweet heart he is quiet shy and caring. He loves to be at home with his family. He just finished Kindergarten getting an award for most improved in math :) He gets to go onto first grade next year and is so excited.  Landon is moms boy unless football is on then he is sitting on the couch with dad.  I am so proud of Landon and all he has over come in his short little life he is truly awesome.  When I ask Landon why he is so special to me he says " Cause I am your good boy"


Taylor aka Tay, Tay Tay, Boo, Boo Bear
Age 3yrs 8 months
Favorite Color: Pink
Favorite TV show: Olivia(she is more of a movie kinda kid with the lion king and beauty and the beast)
Favorite Sport: Soft Ball like her big sister
What she wants to be when she grows up: A mommy

 Taylor is my little ball of energy. She has an attitude like no other. She loves going places she isn't content just hanging out at home for to long.  As soon as she was born I knew she would be different ( in a good way of course) She marches to the beat of her own drum.  Taylor is very independent and likes to play on her own where no one can bother her.  She shows no fear and is very smart. I'm proud of her too :) because of how smart she is. Shes our little dare devil and sweety pie.  When I ask her why she is so special to me she says "Cause I love you"


Hunter aka Huntie, booger, pooh  bear
Age 2 yrs 5 months
Favorite T.V. show: Yo Gabba Gabba
Favorite sport: Soccer

 Hunter has taught me more patience than I ever thought I could or would have.  When Hunter was born my family became complete he was the missing piece to the puzzle and the missing part of my heart.  Hunter was a very very unhappy little baby he cried a lot and I knew something wasn't right.  Having Hunter gave me the strength to stand up for what I know is right, I argued with the Dr for 7 months until they finally sent him to a specialist and now he is the happiest little guy ever.  Hunter is a lot like his big sister Taylor they have the same attitude it is so funny to watch them you would think they are twins.  he is a big big mommies boy and I wouldn't want it any other way.  


I am so proud of all of my wonderful children, they have changed my life in so many wonderful ways. I couldn't picture my life without them all in it, nor would I want to.  I am honored to be there mother and I enjoy every minute of my life with them.

Shark steam mop!!!

This year I am trying to make my home more chemical free. I convinced the Hubby to buy me the new shark professional steam pocket mop. We purchased it from target for $129.99 they have it in 3 colors white, blue, and yellow, We got the white one it came with a free $10 dollar target gift card and  I absolutely love it!!! We have 4 kids ranging in age from 7 to age 2 so I'm sure you can imagine how sticky and gross floors can get. When I first got it I immediately went to the stickiest spot on my kitchen floor which was spilled and dried koolaid. The mop has 3 settings, dust (for wood floors), Mop (for everyday cleaning), and Scrub (for those tough jobs).  I turned my mop to scrub and set it right on that sticky icky spot and within seconds the nasty mess was gone.  Next I took out my mop and bucket, mopped the whole floor like I would normally do, and let it dry.  After the floor dried I turned the steam mop back to scrub ( my favorite setting) and did the whole floor, and let me tell you when they say the proof is in the pad its so true the reusable micro fiber pad was filthy gross and from what was supposed to be a clean floor that my kids crawl around on, It made me want to get sick :( after using the shark mop I will never go back to doing my floors with a mop and bucket or with chemical floor cleaners again. 


Pros: 
Comes with both the rectangle and triangle head (for easy bathroom cleaning)
Kills germs with No chemicals
comes with 3 reusable micro fiber pads
also comes with the carpet glider for refreshing carpets
Has 3 different settings dust, mop and scrub
Has a large water tank and continuous steam.
Makes cleaning my floor fast and easy.
Saves money no more buying floor cleaners
Less time cleaning




Cons:
You have to remember not to leave the water in it.


I highly recommend this steam mop for anyone who wants an easy chemical free way to clean there floors.







On to new things!!!!

My blog used to be mainly about cloth diapers and what I liked and didn't like. Well now we are on to bigger things and all things that have to do with trying to care for 4 crazy kiddos.
