First Day of School

Today was Isabella's first day of kindergarten.  I can' believe my oldest is starting school.  She was so excited and loved it.  Her teacher is very nice as well!  Overall it was a great first day of school experience for her.  She was even sporting a new haircut which she thought she was really cool!  I am happy for her, and yet very sad to think how fast time flies.  

Some Firsts For Ava

The girls celebrating my birthday this week.  They decorated the house with streamers and balloons and along with Hartman's help they baked me a cake!  Ava had a little too much fun with a black marker while making me a card!  It was a nice quiet birthday with my sweet family!

Since moving two weeks ago, we decided not to put the crib back up and just try out the toddler bed with Ava.  She has done really well.  This was her first night sleeping in a "big girls bed."  She also went pee on the potty twice this week!  My baby is growing up.  However the "binkie" will be the ultimate task.  I'm just not ready to tackle that one.  She's so sweet~

Direct Sales on Good Morning America

So excited that Heritage Makers was mentioned on Good Morning America. I have to say that I know at times Direct Sales gets a bad rep, but let me tell you it's been awesome for me and my family to earn an extra income.  Plus I love being a publishing coach so much. I've learned so much about my own heritage and how to help others preserve their memories. Anyways, this segment on GMA on direct sales was really cool!  I realize direct sales is not for everyone, but I'm just blessed I found such an awesome company with lots of integrity.   Check out the link below!

Finally!!!

In case you haven't heard....A miracle has occurred in the Stosich Family. I didn't think it was possible, but was proven wrong...WE ARE HAVING A BOY!!!! We are very excited and sooo relieved :) I think Hartman and I are still in shock. The girls are telling everyone that they are going to have a baby brother. What will I do with boy toys???? I'm sure he'll get his fair share of princess dress up days! We are very blessed and excited to have a little boy in our home.

I have been so bad about updating our blog during this pregnancy. It's really taking a toll on me energy wise. We've also been in Georgia for the last 4 weeks and have been really busy doing fun things here with family. When I get home I'll have lots of pictures to post from "Hot"lanta! Hope everyone is enjoying their summer and just wanted to finally share our exciting news.

Stosich Update

It's been so long since I've kept up with our blog! I'm finally starting to feel a little better so I wanted to do a quick summery of what's been going on with our family over the last few months!

The Easter Bunny 

Papa Larry came to visit.  We had so much fun with him here.  Since he isn't able to be here for our birthdays we had one big birthday celebration for all of the kids with cupcakes and Papa got a surprise pony named Nutmeg to come to our house for the kids to ride.  This was the second time Nutmeg has been here!

For Spring Break Cousin Emily came to visit and the girls spent two nights at their hotel and loved every minute of it.

Ava turned 2 and we celebrated with a Mickey Mouse Birthday Party.  She loves M-I-C-K-E-Y so much!

I was too sick to make a cake, so Hartman did it all.  He did a great job!

Happy Birthday Ava Girl!

Sofia turned 4 and celebrated it with a Tinkerbell party with all of her friends!  She had a great time!

Isabella's first camping trip with only Dad.  She loves fishing so much!  They spent hourse fishing, and she got really good at it, so much so, she caught this fish all by herself!  Now she wants her very own fishing pole!  Hartman loves it!

Decorating our Mailboxes, in Ava's case herself!

I saw this cute idea on tip junkie for making candy dipped marshmallows with sprinkles. The girls had a blast making these treats for their friends!

Finished Product! Yummy!

I saw another cute idea on a lil' girls hairdo blog. These are suppose to look like hearts in their hair. Not sure how much they look like hearts, but they look beautiful none the less. Isabella and Sofia were so excited to get these special doos for their Valentine's Party at school!
