Fun with Daddy

-


We've been enjoying the nice weather! Natalie loves to color outside with sidewalk chalk. We've been grilling a lot, and Tim will color with her while he grills. Here are the results:




Tim traced her and she thought that was great. She would point to it and say, "Me!" She definitely got a bath after this fun day!

Natalie is also quite fascinated by my headphones. She was wearing them the other day, and Tim put some sacred music on the computer (we're talking BJ, Wilds, etc.) She started "rocking out" to the music. Pretty funny!



Natalie loves to go to garage sales. Here she is with some of our "finds." I don't usually buy stuffed things, because of the whole germ issue, but these Cabbage Patch dolls were only 50 cents and they are in brand new condition. I couldn't believe it!

Finally, I have found a solution to the toy clutter! Look at the newly organized toy area. Yes, the mural is almost done. Hopefully it will be done before baby #2 arrives!

Cute video and pictures! She's talking really well! We did sort of the same thing in our downstairs play room with the bins and stuff. I put pictures of all their toys on the front of the bins so they would know where they all went. It's already trashed again, but it looked great when we first did it! :D

My Story Begins

I am participating in a really fun project that is the brainchild of my friend Janna, who regularly blogs at The Adventure of Motherhood . Her project, entitled Mommy's Piggy Tales , encourages moms to blog about their childhood in 15 weeks. Here is the button if you want to learn more or consider joining. My dad, my mom, and me. My daughter, N, has that quilt now. Every year for Christmas my brother and I received our very own holiday ornament. Starting with the “Baby’s First Christmas” ornament, these ornaments usually reflected something we accomplished or did during the soon-to-be-past year. For example, the year I got my driver’s license, my ornament was Daffy Duck in a shiny new car. Every year we enjoyed putting “our” ornaments on the tree. It was a wonderful time to reflect back over our lives and the memories we had made. Sometimes we asked the reason behind the ornament, and learned a little more about our histories. When I married, I got a box with my ornaments in it to ...

Preschool: Life Changing Years

I have been thinking since last week about what to write when it comes to preschool. I am participating in a fun project put on by my friend Janna at Mommy's Piggy Tales. Check it out! There are so many options. I could write about my imaginary friend, Polk-a-Roo, who I was actually a little afraid of. I could write about losing my favorite My-Little-Pony, Firefly, in the sandbox when some mean boys buried it at preschool. I could write about my only child, only grandchild years before my brother came along. I could write about my first “best friend,” the girl across the street (Klaire), who I sobbed over when it was time to move away. I could write about all of those things, but the truth is my preschool years are some of the most important of my life. See, my parents wanted me to be a “good person.” To reach that goal, they started going to church. Not long after they started attending church, something happened that would change the course of my life forever. My parents, throug...

Christmas Miracle

Natalie was hamming it up for Tim the other night. Well, a lot has been going on in the past two months. About a month or so after the miscarriage, I was noticing something wasn't quite as it should be. I took a pregnancy test, and it came back positive. That was strange to me, because we were trying to prevent that as requested by the doctor. They called me in for blood work, and everything was indicating that I was pregnant. I was quite confused, as you can probably imagine. Two weeks ago we went in to have an ultrasound. That was eight weeks after the miscarriage. In that ultrasound they found what appeared to be a baby developing at 5 weeks gestation. We were quite perplexed, of course, because in our minds it should be about 8 weeks. The doctor asked us to come back today because at 7 weeks they should be able to see a heartbeat. The doctor said there was a good chance that there were just leftovers in there because of the earlier miscarriage, but that my numbers (hormone leve...
