My M&M's

3/25/09

Well, I'd hoped to post even more pictures, but.... Blogger doesn't like me, and it's bedtime. Maybe tomorrow

It's spring, right?

Happy Birthday, Trenton! Go, Bulldogs!

Mishayla's up and then she wants down. Repeat.

Happy 30th birthday, Carmen. Where is the guest of honor?

The lollipop returns.

Ginger gets into the picture.

The girls with their knit items from June's Aunt Kathy. I love Melania's African American doll, complete with clothes and a bead necklace.

The girls with their dresses, hats and stuffed animals from Don and Barbara.

Thank you!

Bath time + sisterly love. We have no tubs in our new house, just showers. So, the laundry room sink has to suffice!

Tiggers have stripes. So do M&M's.

Melania's very happy with her huge lollipop! It even trumps Pooh Bear.

Gma and Taylor Rae

June and the kids. M&M's nanny is very popular here in MT!

Great Gma and my sister, Karen. The apron gives you a little clue about where we live!

I can't believe it's been this long between posts. Oops. Most of my pictures are on my other laptop, so I won't have a chance to post them tonight. The girls are very busy to say the least. Mishayla has been walking steadily for about 6 weeks. Her vocabulary is growing every day. June started a list of her words because they are still along the lines of "Mishayla-speak," which is recognized only by a few people who live in the same house. She might be getting a little more hair, but that is debatable. Melania has started calling me "Mooommm" - complete with attitude. This is a little distressing, but she still likes to snuggle before bedtime. She's very busy reading about Curious George. Melania likes going to basketball games because of the popcorn and licorice. My business has really picked up since the first of the year, so most of my "spare" time is spent working at the office trying to understand insurance claims and how to submit them for payment. Overdue blog congratulations to Lisa, Troy and Braden! You can check out their blog for more information...

Christmas Eve: Pictures by Martha!

We drove to the greater Seattle area yesterday from MT. Our roads were better than expected. I can't say Mishayla enjoyed the trip, but then would any one year old?

I went to work today at my old job. It was wonderful to see everyone again, but I am still excited to have moved on to owning my business.

Christmas Eve finds us staying at my sister's house, even though she and her husband have left for Canada. Housesitting and catsitting. It's nice.

We are looking forward to seeing lots of friends and family while visiting WA, but disappointed that we won't be able to visit Caroline this trip. Thanks to all of you who have asked about her and how she is doing.

Enjoy the picture collage. My friend Martha and her husband babysat the girls today and this was the result. Martha is an amazing photographer (and friend!), and you can visit her blog -- Sew Fab Martha.
