Day 152

Little Miss donated her hair to Locks of Love today:)

I'll post a picture of the final product tomorrow....

Day 151

We had a great day. I went walking in the morning with my friend (and it was lightly sprinkling-which was awesome!), Daddy made us all french toast, we went bowling, then got groceries for our picnic, came home and cleaned just a tad, watch a movie, then went to the park, and had a picnic in the rain with lots of our friends. We finished off the day with getting into jammies, having a popscicle, and having a little FHE lesson. Prepared and taught by this sweet girl...

Day 148

Just enjoying some cookies & milk

Day 147

It was Kenny's half birthday. We made him a GIANT cupcake out of rice krispies, and frosted the top to make it look cute. It was yummy. The kids made hime some pictures and cards. I'm sure some of you think it's silly, but we like celebrating half birthdays. It's a fun tradition, and it makes us happy :)

Day 146

We planted our garden on Monday. Some things are in these containers, and we planted a few things in the ground. Wish us luck... we don't really know what we are doing.

Day 145

It's the last week of preschool... and it's at my place. These kids are so cute, and fun! (but I am glad I don't have to teach anymore)

Day 144

WOW! My life's been crazy hectic (as always). I may go back and post pictures from the last month (but seeing how I haven't caught up from my Vegas trip, I probably won't). So I'll let you know some of the things we've been up to: My birthday, I took a trip to Miami to visit my sister, my hard drive crashed and burned (I had to pay lots of money to get the last 5 years worth of pictures extracted from it), my credit card number was stolen and used to purchase items over in the UK, I got strep & pink eye, some birthday parties, beautiful spring weather, another calling for church (I get to plan monthly activities for the women), babysitting for friends, and trying to keep up on schoolwork for my daughter.

And now today: my husband had the day off because he has to work Saturday. I went to the Police Department (to file a report about my credit card) and ran into my BF with her kids. So I stole her parking spot and got time left on the meter (woohoo!). While I was downtown seeing all our lovely transient people, Daddy took our little man and they both got haircuts. They look so studly! We did a Costco run, now we'll ride bikes and pick little Miss up from school, do a little bowling, plant our garden, clean the house, and call it a night.

Day 134

Daddy decided to let the kids hang out in the backyard, in the tent. He set it up and the kids got all moved in. They wanted me to come check it out, and that's when I noticed the mold :( So I took a quick picture and then they got out. We left it up to clean it, but then got a HUGE wind storm. The next day it blew out of our backyard, and down to the neighbor's house. And now it's in our garage, and we still haven't cleaned it (haha.... that's how we roll)

Day 111

My life is CRAZY BUSY right now. And to add to the stress... both the kids are feeling ill :(

(my pictures didn't transfer properly and so they got cropped weird)

Day 110

So I opened up my birthday card from my mom & stepdad today (yes, I snuck into my presents early). Inside was a gift certificate to a company that you can create digital scrapbooks. I was so excited!!! I started going through old photos (since I haven't scrapbooked ANYTHING). I decided that I'd work on my daughter's first year of life, but everything is on film and I'm gonna have to scan photos. So I ditched that idea (too much work for me right now) and moved onto my son's first year of life. I came across this photo and it made me smile. Sometimes when I think of him as a baby, I just remember him being grumpy. So I thought it was awesome that I had one of him happy. Plus when he was born he had lots of birthmarks, and most of them have faded now, but in this picture you can see them. I do have to admit seeing this photo made me a little sad though because my kids really have grown up. They aren't so little anymore :(
As a side note... if any of you have pictures of the first few months of his life, can you pass them along? I can't find anything from the hospital to 3 months.
