Where has the time gone....

Words cannot describe how busy I have been. While change I used to think was one of my strong points this one has topped the cake! I thought 3 was difficult, whew 4 is my cup running over! I love it but man, talk about Mom needing adjustment time!

So I had full intentions of keeping up on my blogging and pictures and such. Life got in the way. The last few posts I made FIVE months ago, are so so sad! REALLY!!

Then I justified to myself....hhhhmmmm well since I have such a HUGE crowd of followers on our little blog it doesn't matter! Well the pathway to hell is paved with excuses and good intentions! Bottom line....I have got to get going. I look at others that 'have it all together' and it makes me feel so so sad! But maybe they are saying that about me and they think I have it together....aaahhhmmm NOT. But in reality...our little (BIG) family blog is for us! It is for me to help me remember my stuff and if people want to read about it on the way go for it! I wish I was talented enough to have hundreds of followers and something exciting to tell people about all the time. But nope! It is just us Petersen's. One little group of millions of Petersen's out there! :) I am honest. I have to remember sometimes it is NOT appropriate to be honest. So I lay it all out there!


My little princess....now 8 months old! HOLY COW! I told you! time has flown. She is such a doll! She loves her mom and dad! she loves her brothers. I love it at this age when they are starting to show favorites! She is very independent already! She loves to be held then when she is done...she is done! Put me down and let me play. then she is happy again! I tell you this little thing is a blast! She is little and makes me laugh since I am ....ahhmm not so little! :) She is still wearing a size 0 shoe....seriously? the poor little thing needs to grow a little because the shoes I am missing out on putting on this little thing is just killing me!

Something funny about her already! She loves girls! Seriously! She loves my little niece Addi. Since she was just probably 3-4 months she would scream at her. Then when she got older she would scream and put her hands out and shake. Then/now she screams, grabs her face and tries to eat her nose or any other part of her face. Addi loves it and so does Ella! I love it too! So funny!

Ella is not even close to crawling. she would much rather roll! She will roll all over and scoot on her back!I don't know she is my baby I don't care if she crawls or walks or whatever. She is held so much by me or her brothers it really is not a wonder why! :)

She is very picky about food! She loves cheese! :) She loves to spit her food around! And probably her favorite food is sweet potatoes!

We are all so happy she is here.....now I am hoping the adjustment time is leveling out! whew! I guess it is me and my lack of dealing well with change.
