October

Happy Birthday to all my October Babbies!!!
On that note do you think its rude to start charging people who show up to the party without a gift??

I'm pretty sure I will start charging people that are invited to a BIRTHDAY PARTY and don't bring a present. All they do is show up for food. This isn't the first time this has happened. OK fine....I wont but I really want to =D

OK That rant was the "mama bear" in action ;)

Hogwarts in Fall ?

no its just holy hill ;0)

Nene punny.....

Ashlyn had to sing in church this past Sunday. After the kids were done singing and the church was quite..."all done" is what Mag's said. The entire congregation started to chuckle. Clayton and myself were laughing soo hard we had to remove ourselves from the church.

And Nene is how she says Laney

So much info.....

So we moved out of the city and into the COUNTRY!!!! I'm getting closer to the west coast!! I told Clayton that when he gets a football deal to sign with the AZ Cardinals that way me and Josh can "house sit" his place or with the Packers =D
The first thing my son said when we looked at the place was "goosh it smells like cow pooop" well yes son it's farm county.
It's a drive into work but I get to drive past Holy Hill everyday. For those of you that are familiar with the church and during the fall it is even moore pretty. Clayton always says a quote from Harry Potter when we see it. I laugh every time. He really sounds like Harry.

Kids update...I will try my best to post some pics of the kids but with the move, dance practice, fb practice & school we've been very busy.

Lyrah has started baby food and growing like a weed. She is 6 months and she already weighs 19lbs. She looks like she is 9 months or at least that's what people say when they see her.
Mags is talking up a storm and she talks in the 3rd person. She loves motor cycles so during the Labor Day weekend all we heard from her mouth was "Bike brumm brumm" or "daddy bike"
Ashlyn is loving her dance and glad to be back at school & with her friends. We went school shopping she is definitely a girl. LOVES TO SHOP!!! And she has a shoe thing just like me. LOVE THE SHOES
Clayton is digging football and not glad to be back at school. Oh and he will be
13 Oct. 5!!!

Clayton

So Clayton is in foot ball this year and so far so good. One thing...he learned the hard way that you are NOT supposed to jump in foot ball. He knows now not to jump and if he feels he needs to do so, to jump REALLY REALLY high =D

Mags #3

So over the weekend we were watching the Travel Channel (yes i know) anyway...the show we were watching was called "MAN V FOOD" this episode he was in New York eating the most mouth watering corned beef and pastrami sandwich so mouth watering that Mag's climbed up the foot stool put her hand on the TV and then tried to eat the sandwich!!! I'm still laughing!!!!! =D

Mags #2

Toddlers say the funniest things and they can get away with it. Magdalana's new favorite word is "POOP" every word she says POOP after it. So this is her lingo...."daddy poop" mom poop" "a poop" "tay poop" baby poop" you get the picture. She does this when we are out at stores, church, anywhere & everywhere. Also she learned how to say bike, milk, jack (jacks big music show). She really emphasizes the "kah" sound.
She is doing very well on her speech and she is picking up fast. I will have to break out the "swear jar" very soon!!!

HAPPY JULY??

Yes it is July 1st. Only 5 months till CHRISTMAS!!!! HA

The weather in Wisconsin is 55 degrees, cloudy and rainy. YUCK YUCK YUCK!! What a great summer maybe just maybe our summer will be during winter. Only if!!!

Anyways........The Bartz fam is doing good. Clayton is bord already. just waiting till football starts. He will be a 7th grader next school year. Ashlyn got her hair cut. She got a short bob very CUTE!! I love her with short hair. She will be a 3rd grader next school year.
Magdalana is starting to put words together like "Daddy bike" "A (ashlyn) eat"
"baba nynight pees " and the all time fav "POOP"
every time she farts, has a wet diaper, or if someone else farts its "POOP" Those of you who don't speak toddler "pees" is please =D
Lyrah is 4 months, 16lbs and 26 inches. She can roll not completely over but from side to side and in a circle. She is a VERY happy and smiley baby THANK GOD!!!!! I will post some pics soon.

Heather

Magdalana Funny

My cousin Jamie got married over the weekend and at the dinner my Mag's ate her dinner and while we finished ours I gave her some creamers to play with. She loves to build towers and knock them down. But...she had other plans....she played with them for a little while and then.....she popped them in her mouth and bit down!! The first one she didn't know what to think but, the 2nd one went in and POP. I couldn't move fast enough to get them away from her so she popped about 4 or 5 of them & cream was everywhere!!!

My brueser

This morning when I dropped 3 & 4 off at Granny's house there were worms on her driveway since it rained last night. There was this GIANT earth worm or night crawler still alive, when I took Mags out of the van & put her down to show her the worm she looked at me, looked at the worm smiled and STOMPED ON IT!!!! I was laughing soooo hard I had to sit down. All she said was "EWWWW"
This innocent little toddler with big bright blue eyes killed a worm. Thats my girl =D

I finally know something that my son doesn't. TWITTER
He had no idea what or how to twitter. YES!!!

Game Night

just some pics of our first game of 2009. LOVED THE SEATS!!! and up to bat was J.J. Hardy. Ashlyn didn't like the guys sitting behind us. She didn't like their language but I told her "they talk just like daddy" =D

It's almost been a month since I updated about the family and I know my 3 followers are dieing to see whats going on.....
I took Lyrah to the doctor for her herniated umbilical cord to make sure it was ok and it is. It should fix itself & if it doesn't she will have to have surgery. It is going down if anything she will have an "outy" She is 12lbs now and still growing. Magdalana is doing great. She is saying more words everyday & getting more teeth. She is doing good with Lyrah but she has her moments. Clayton made the honor roll again & can't wait till football starts. Ashlyn got an award for her art work.
We celebrated my Grandma's 89th birthday last weekend it was a surprise. Don't worry we only sang to her as she came off the elevator we didn't scream SURPRISE =)
I go back to work next Tuesday. Not looking forward to that but I really don't have a choice. I like to feed & cloth my kids. I will miss watching ALL the kids shows during the day like Yo Gabba Gabba, Dora, Toot & Puddle (yes Toot & Puddle). No not really. We did go to the Brewer game last night that was fun & the seats were AWESOME!! we took the older 2 to the game I will upload the pics when Josh gets home from work hopefully today. They lost to the Reds 6-1 Please no comment Rae :)~

Yeah Yeah

So I'm a Twilight follower so go out and buy the books & the DVD comes out at midnight this Saturday.

Update

We've been very busy in the Bartz house. Clayton started Youth Group German dance. He dance's with older girls. Most of this dance group can drive. I was a little concerned he would feel "weird" & other things that would make any normal mom or anyone feel concerned but, he assured me that he was fine. Sure Sure ;)
Ashlyn's class started as well. Both of the older kids will be learning German so that will come in handy when Oma & Opa talk in German or when we go to the dance outings.
Magdalana is blabbing up a storm, has 4 teeth now & starting to get more. She is doing very good with Lyrah. She has her moments but every kid does.
Lyrah has gained 1lb since her last doc. appointment. She is 8lbs now & still growing!! She eats like a piggy & over all a very good baby.
We are very blessed with healthy and wonderful children.

Please welcome..

Lyrah was born Feb. 23 2009 at 11:50am by a C-section. This was not planned but everything worked out. Had a few scary moments but over all she is OK. She was 7lbs 11oz and 21 inches. She has more hair than the other 3 when they were born. She also is the biggest ;)

as requested

last

Hopefully today will be my last doc. appt. Baby is due February 23rd. If she isn't born by the end of the week I will be induced on her due date. It's been very crazy and I'm very glad it will be over soon so I can get back into my normal size jeans =)
