abbys new clothes

so 2 of these outfits have ruffles on the butt. i didnt even notice them when i got them...i know those are your favorite heather!

WILL SHE EVER DIE!!!!!!

Most of you know my dog Yona (here she is in a cute little sun hat).







She can play soccer....

she can even open (and eat!) chocolates....

but did you know that she is indestructable! Her newest adventure was eating medicine. I came home to find my birth control pills (she must not want to get pregnant) on the stairs (her favorite place to chew stuff up. Luckly she wasnt able to get into them. But when Rick came home he said that she ate his box of dayquil !

I am convinced she is never going to die. God must have something in store for her.

I was reading Rebeccas post (http://rdgarner.blogspot.com/2009/02/not-at-peaceful-place.html) and this was my comment to her. I have been feeling this way for awhile. I hope everyone understands it...it kind of sounds weird to me.


I have been feeling the same way sort of. I dont see any progress in my life (other then my kids getting bigger). I clean up, it gets dirty again...I cook, they eat it....I fold the laundry, they wear it.

I was telling Heather or my husband ( i dont remember who i tell things to anymore) the other week that I could see alot of progress of the Ollala thing they are building. Just a month had gone by since I had seen it last and you can actually see what they want it to look like.
For those who build things such as bridges and road and buildings must feel great acomplishment. Being able to see the progress is something you do is awesome! It really makes me want to go do something like that, something I can see the progress in.

random pictures

Michael earned his bobcat badge last week. He is half way to earning bear badge thanks to Miss Phressy, she so generously brings him every week.

this is him celebrating.

I walked into the bathroom to wash lizzys hair and this is what i found. i love how she can stay in there for hours.

when i came home from dropping the girls off at church and the store, this is what i saw. I love how he loves her so much!

My very 'slim'(he is now down to 250 which means he is within standards of the navy) husband was invited to play in the all star game for his basketball league. the top player from each team was invited...so that means he is #1. his team won this game even though he said he only played for about 10 minutes.

If you notice the date on the basketball picture and the pictures of Mike, they are on the same night at around the same time. Let's just say I did alot of driving that night.

the view outside my window....

while standing on my bed and chair.

Yep...thats a mountain view! I just now realized after a year of living in this house that we have a beautiful mountain view. although barely visable through the tree...lol

sorry about the darkness...its the screen..but look...it snowed last night. Not very much but enough to delay school by two hours.

Lizzy in all her glory!

Lizzy got her pictures done in preschool a couple of weeks ago and when i went in to pick her up they were in. Liz and Mrs. Campbell were actually standing at the door as I walked in. Mrs Campbell said the photographer said she was very photogenic.

I think this one is my favorite. It shows her playfulness.



In this picture you can see where i bashed her in the head with a door at red robin. I was leaning on it while she was in there and she tried to open it and i didnt know. The door lock was at the perfect height with her eyebrow. Im glad it didnt swell up!

She is just so dang cute!

jumperoo and bouncy chair

abby tried out her new jumperoo today. i think she will be spending alot of time in there.

she didnt like the bouncy chair as much though. she kept trying to get the bird in her mouth. she was actually sitting forward to get it.

lizzys field trip

today liz and i went on a field trip with her school to the bremerton fire department. we had lots of fun.


she is such a poser! lol


in the ambulance



those coats are heavy!

tour of the fire engine

she said she wants to be a firefighter when she grows up.

their tv room

randoms

abby fell asleep while chewing on her fingers. she is constantly chewing on them! maybe she will pop out a tooth some day.

she is holding her bottle in this picture. she has been doing this on and off since she was about 4 days old

here she is just being cute..she looks a little mad..dont worry that wetness all over rick isnt her drool (which she does alot of lately)..its his sweat from running or basketball.

this is a yummy salad that rick made me the other day...it was soooo good! i love the salads he makes me!

cuteness!!

These are new shoes I got abby. I just thought some of her outfits needed a little extra something. Once she is standing more then I will get the more flexible ones they say are better for their feet.

This is how I found her this morning. I guess she thought it was to bright in her room or something.

And this one was at naptime....a whole 30 minutes (or so) after the first one. I had put the monitor closer to her so I could hear her breath since she was on her stomach. When its in it's origianl postition all I hear is the sound machine. When I first saw her more of her hand was on it but after I got the camera she moved a little.

Oh and she is 13 weeks today.

getting rid of clothes

so lately i have had the need to get rid of stuff. well mike came in and told me he could fit any more stuff in his drawer so i decided to go through it. He had 39 shirts in his drawer! Ididnt know my son was a clothes horder (sp?). Ok like heather just said..he isnt the one that buys them..its me.

So here are his before and after pictures. We got rid of 25!




Now here is the pile from my room. Some of was the girls (not abbys though cuz im saving those incase bethy-bear has a girl!) some was ricks white t-shirts from work. we bought new ones and got rid of the dingys!



Here are the papers i went through. these are all to be shredded! or burned.these came from on of those portable filing cases (that was broken anyway). the only things left from that are our taxes and pictures.
