4 month old babies are NOT supposed to STAND up

Ok so I have some experience with babies since I am one of 1o and have 3 of my own. Just a couple of days ago I heard Gracie wake up. She was napping in her bouncer at the time. So I walked over to her and she had a grip of the top of the bouncer and was standing up in the bouncer. Yes STANDING up. I know it sounds a little overdramatized but the child was standing. Of course Seth and James didn’t believe me and I’m sure they thought I was just making my child look like a genious. Well guess what happened next? Seth saw her standing up in her swing as it was swinging. Thank you very much I’m not a liar!!! Ok so no more just putting her in something without buckling the seat belt. I guess it’s in her blood because Uncle Miah stood up on the top of his walker (he couldn’t walk yet or stand at the time) and he was only 4 months so I guess she’s still got some work to do.

Truly a Desuyo

Ok so everyone that knows the Desuyo clan knows that wherever they are, they can get in a good nap. Whether it be sitting straight up on the couch, at the movies, at the mall, in the stroller. Papa can sleep anywhere. Ok so here’s a little person catching some zzzzzzz’s in the new Bumbo.

Here are some other cute pictues of Gracie in her new Bumbo that I found at a Thrift Store. I love finding a good deal especially when I actually NEED it.

Once again the little princess is catching up on some beauty sleep!!

Uh-Oh I got caught!

So as everyone knows I have a used baby store out of my home called Wee Cycle. When the kids get tired of their stuff I take pictures of it and put it on my website to be sold. I love it because kids get tired of stuff and want to move on but what to do with the stuff has always been a delimma. So I’m so excited because now other kids can enjoy my kids’ stuff instead of throwing it away. So cool! So Jordan was looking over my shoulder today and I had taken pictures of their huge 6 wheeler CAT powerwheels because that was the next thing to say bye-bye. He got right in my face, pointed his little finger at me and said “Oh no mom you are in BIG trouble.” I wasn’t paying much attention and kept doing my thing. (I was in my zone) Anyway he said “Mom I’m not proud of you because you’re selling mine and Asher’s big dump truck and that is NOT ok.” He ran off mad but got over it because I told him for Christmas that Santa might bring 2 Kawasakis to them. He said “Ok now I’m proud, sell it.” LOL this kid cracks me up. The end.

Priceless Moments

I think we’ve got some training to do

So last Sunday we were all headed out to the car to go to church. Asher runs over to me and says “Mommy oh no, I still have my pennies in my hand that I found on the floor of my room.” I told him “It’s ok Asher, you can give your pennies to Jesus.” Asher says “No Mommy I can’t do that. This is my money. I’m buying gum with it.” HAHA I guess James and I have some little talks to do and teach the kids about tithing. I guess it’s never to early to start. I just thought it was kinda funny that Asher was very certain that he was buying gum with HIS money.

Sunday Snap-Shots

So today was the first Sunday in a really long time that I actually had time after dressing the kids to take some pictures of them. It has also been such pretty weather lately that we busted out the hoodies. We all wore a hoodie to church this morning, even Gracie. She was so cute! Here are a few pictures of the kids from this morning.

Best yard sale bargain YET!!!

I know it’s been a ridiculous amount of time since I’ve blogged but maybe I’ll try to post stuff more frequently. It’s been such a challenge figuring out how to run the business, home school and keep my house somewhat clean during the day. Anyway enough of the excuses. Yesterday James, Seth, the kids and I all went out and hit some yard sales. On our way home we saw one in our own neighborhood and although we didn’t have room in the car we stopped to see if there was anything we just couldn’t live without. Of course there was. We found this awesome, fun, amazing merry go round thingy that is so much fun. It’s even big enough for the big kids in our family. Here are some pictures to high light our fun day playing in the back yard. btw we got this awesome bargain for only $25. Isn’t that so cool?

This really is so much fun. Come and visit is so you can have fun too!

Asher all smiles

Jordan was so excited when Daddy and Uncle Seth got the merry go round up

Welcome to our family Isaiah Aleksander

My little nephew Isaiah Aleksander came into the world last Saturday at about 8:30 am. We were all in SC but I was able to make it to the hospital when we got back to visit him. We are very thankful that Lindsay wants us to be a part of Isaiah’s life and think he is a little blessing to our family. We love you little man. Check out the hair!!!! Jordan didn’t have that much hair until he was 2 haha.

Lola came from SC after the conference to see him

Wee Cycle

So I know it has been a ridiculous amount of time since I have blogged but I do have an excuse I guess. I have recently within the last 3 weeks started a new business and have been so swamped with running it and home schooling at the same time. We have had so many things happen this month and I have a lot to blog about so keep checking back in the next few days and I’ll try to blog about 3 new blogs per day until I get caught back up. So my business is so much fun for me and I am making a lot of money which has helped us catch up since we were without a job for so long. God has taken such good care of us and I have had an extremely good week with wee cycle. For those of you who are reading and thinking what in the heck is wee cycle I will explain how I got started doing it and what it is.

A couple of weeks ago I was doing my regular shopping in goodwill and noticed a sit and stand LX stroller for $10 but obviously needed a good cleaning. I bought it, washed everything down lysoled it and got it ready to sell on craigslist. I sold it for $40 and made a $30 profit. I happened to mention that little story to mom and she said “why don’t you make a business out of fixing up stuff you find for cheap and start a little business.” I thought haha yeah right. That was the weekend I was so excited because we were headed to Orlando to go to seaworld and disney and didn’t really think about it again until we got home. When we did arrive home I found about 6 big items totaling about $15 and profited about $65. I then really began to think how I could open my own gently used baby store out of my home. I offer delivery and 1 bi weekly baby sale. It’s amazing how much stuff I have sold in these last 3 weeks. Also someone gave me a HUGE donation a couple of days ago and i can make 100% profit off of that.

I have enjoyed meeting so many cool people and find it a a good way to minister to people by giving them a good deal on stuff. Also if someone can’t afford something I always am willing to help them out as well. God has blessed me so why not help others.
