Goofing Around

Going out to enjoy the hot tub. My little swimsuit model!

Addilynn doing her best to ignore me! She is getting pretty good at avoiding the camera.

Who knew Sunny D could be such an inspiration?? Since we have all been under the weather this last week we have been drinking and eating anything that has a high content of vitamin C. So… On this rainy day it was Sunny D which made for a great game of ring toss

 

Finding our creative sides!

Stopping for a quick “pose”

Who needs a Sunny D bottle when you have a boxer tail?

This picture I’m sad about! I had this brilliant idea but wasn’t quick enough. I wanted the bottle in focus and dad and A to be out of focus.  I couldn’t get the camera just right and I didn’t have the label right! Before I could fix it, the moment had past so I thought I would post it anyway flaws and all!

Aunt Kadee’s Camera

I borrowed aunt Kadee’s camera again today! I love having a nice camera to take pictures with and we are so lucky she lets us borrow it! Addilynn is very sick so it was a quick one. I got a lot of mean mugs, but I couldn’t wait for her to be healthy to go and practice! Although taking her out in the weather did come back to bite me, we had a fun few minutes getting out of the house. We have both felt kind of cooped up since she can’t really be around anyone right now! Be ready blog followers for more pictures while I have the “fancy” camera!

I want to go inside!

The only fake smile I got today! At least it was a smile!

From There to Here and Here to There!

Last weekend Addilynn and I were busy little beavers. We started out on Friday heading over to Liberty Lake for a going away/housewarming party for Jake and Maria. On our way in the house Addilynn said, “what’s that sound?” Her dad replied, “that’s what the city sounds like!” Addilynn then said, “I don’t like the city!” That’s our girl!

I didn’t have my camera so I didn’t get any good pictures, BUT I do have a wonderful photographer friend who I’m sure got a ton! We will sure miss Jake and can’t wait for him to return safe in the meantime we will take good care of Nanny M and are so glad to have her close again!

Saturday 3/10/12 we hightailed it to Clarkston to watch auntie P play volleyball. She did great! We only got to watch one game but the girls went on to win the tournament! GO GIRLS! After the game, we cruised up to Lewiston to visit the “boys” It was their second birthday and if you think one two year old is cute, double it!! The party was great and Addilynn had a blast with the kids and Bryan. She loves him! It was so nice to get to catch up with Ash and Bman we miss them and hope we can get the kids together again soon. We even got to see Kellsi, Delaney, Gary, Keith, Katy, and Bailey! Maybe next time Daddy will get to visit with friends too!

Sunday we celebrated GGma Mary’s birthday with cake and then Dustin and I sped over to town to look at dressers. Wouldn’t you know they didn’t have them! Addilynn stayed with Nona and Papa so we could make a quick trip out of it. We were all pretty tired come Monday to say the least.

Wednesday 3/14/12 Addilynn and Mommy hosted an impromptu play date. We fit Turstin, Millie, Kelby, Addilynn, Travis, and baby Rylen all under one roof, and only had a few squabbles. The mommies tried to have adult conversations, but with six kids under the age of six in a 800 Sq ft house it gets a little chaotic. We loved every minute of it! The kids all had a blast painting with condensed milk and food coloring even if it did give Erin a slight heart attack! Everyone made it out unscathed and happy.  I would say it was a success!

Couldn’t find Mickey Mouse… Haven’t I Posted this before???

After thinking for a week that the ultrasound went great and that the new baby had three vessels in its cord we were brought back down to reality again. The ultrasound was inconclusive. They could not for sure rule out a two vessel cord. Here we go again! I will admit it was kind of a blow at first but then I remembered how lucky we are to have our little girl and a wonderful new life inside me. Who cares about all the in between! We have another ultrasound in four weeks. Lets hope the new insurance kicks in by then!! On the bright side we didn’t think we were going to have another ultrasound but we will have at least one more if not many more! Heart rate was 130 today and my due date is still July 20th but baby is reading in the 56 percentile much different then my previous 98 percentile child. Maybe this one wont be close to ten pounds!

Addilynn helping daddy with his rainbow! What a big helper. It was super cold today but at least we got to get outside in the sun for a bit.

It’s the Weekend Again!

We had another wonderful weekend but still can’t believe its come and gone again already. Addilynn got her first set of water color paints and has used them a ton since she got them. Why didn’t I get them before?

We rode bikes at the track on Saturday. Addilynn was pretty excited to get out of the house and she loved seeing all the Lumberjack stuff. She made Essie and I cheer with her. Of course she was Morgan, and we were plain old Lumberjacks. I just know someday she will be on that track cheering for the Lumberjacks!

Today we went on a 4wheeler ride up the river road. It was great to get out and enjoy the fresh air but it didn’t take long for Addilynn to fall back into her old habits and fall fast asleep.

Cousins in the Sunshine

Today Addilynn’s cousin came up to visit for a bit. We had fun outside enjoying the sunshine. It was so nice and warm and extremely needed! We tried to do a creative photo with the girls but trying to get two 2yr olds to listen and cooperate is nearly impossible for amateur photographers! We need professional help!

It was just too bright you couldn’t make out the writing on the road unless the girls were facing directly into the sun. Addilynn was not having the sun in her eyes! So, we turned them around and this was best we could do!
