My little Kenzie girl has been in need of lots of attention ever since her brother was born, and now she needs it even more since this cute little sis was born. Boy do Kenzie and I struggle to get along. That girl will argue till she's blue in the face, tell me no, ignore me, pick fights with Kaylee and her cousin Tyler, and the list goes on. Ok I'm gonna be honest. I do not know how to deal with her. Every day I try to deal with her better than the day before, but it always seems so hard. As a mom it is so frustrating that I can't figure out how to handle my own child, and I feel like a complete failure sometimes.
I love my little Kenzie girl so much and I just want so badly to have a good relationship with her and teach her everything she needs to know. 
Now on a more silly note.... speaking of needing attention. This is how I found her the other day. Being the baby in the car seat with Karsyns headband and pacifier. I did let her put makeup on me the other day. We had a nice little time, and she called it her makeup shoptory. For some reason those pictures wouldn't go from my camera to my computer.

Oh Kara... I think miss Kenzie and miss Paige need each other. I feel your pain! My paige is so funny and CAN be so sweet but I sure do struggle with her!!! Love you!
Kara I feel the same way about little Miss Kaia and she doesn't even have any younger siblings! I think the best we can hope for is those sweet moments with them and to continue to try and build a relationship all their life long. I feel helpless at times too :)
awww.. Kara my presley is soo much like your Kenzie! Weird thing is I was at my wit's end with her and than one day I was watching some show.. super nanny or something...and they said just make one on one time with that child (only) once a day for 30-60 minutes.. just that kid, play a game, do makeup, or whatever(like u did) and you will begin to notice a change.. I Sh*& u not.. within a week of me starting one on one time.. she started listening and not acting out,she is a totally different kid.. my family even said WOW she is different! I know you have a lot on your hands right now, and you are an amazing mommy.. because you care .. you are noticing this now and not at the age of 16!You can do it I promise she will come around because you have soo much love for her and she will feel that more over the jealous feelings!good luck!
p.S. you are hot.. Id make a fifth baby with you too! GO KELLY!haha
Like every one else I have one of those daughters too. Thanks for the advice Melody!
Boy am I glad I'm not the only one!
I love the picture of her in the car seat.
Oh Kuls! I wish that I could say I know how you feel... but I dont cause I dont have any girls! But I do know that she just need that one on one time Mel was talking about. you've got your hands full! If there is anything I can do... please let me know! Oh and also wanted to tell you... when Talan was born I was really nervous that Trace was going to be jealous cause he was my only child for a really long time. So, Tony and I started taking just trace out somewhere at least once a month. We go to eat or to the store shopping or something fun. I think beuase we have done this Trace is a much better bigger brother!! He is so patient with him. and he looks forward to the time with just mom and dad!
Thanks for all of the advice. We are definately going to try it.
Hey Kara! Nice to see you and your "little" family! You look awesome! I didn't go to the reunion ( I was boycotting the ridiculous price and timing!!) Poor kids, they just want what they want dont they?!! Hang in there!
Are you sure you're describing Kenzie? You just described my Trevor to a 'T'. He's hard headed, stubborn, smart, witty, and has selective hearing like no other. But there's a soft place in my heart that I cannot even begin to describe. Sound familiar? I can soooo relate girl friend! Just love her and she'll love you back. And she's listening to you even if you think she's not. :) All those qualities that are so frustrating now will take her a long way in life!
Hey girly, don't worry, you'll be fine. I've seen you with your kids, and you're a great little mom!! You definantly have a lot on your plate right now, but not only will you get through it, you'll be able to do ANYTHING!! My kids love to push my buttons too. If you ever need a break, please CALL ME, and I will watch you kids!! My kids would have a ball!! Love you girl!! Ashley Coder
Aren't little girls precious?!? And what would your family be like without Kenzie? We have to get the girls together more, they seemed to have a lot of fun.
As for her, I heard that the tougher they are as kids the easier they are as teens. I don't know if it is true, but I am keeping my fingers crossed!
Hi beauty queen! The other da Luke was going on to Kelly about how Morgan is a real pistol...just going on for like 5 minutes with out letting Kelly get a word in edge wise. Then after his ranting and raving, all Kelly said was, "Do you want to switch and we will give you Kenzie?" Apparently this is a family thing! Ha! Before you know it, or even when is is older, you two will be like two peas in a pod! You are doing great and keep your chin up! We are excited to see you! How is "workin' it out" going? What's next, you will be miss Fitness America too???
