I had to wait a couple of weeks before i could do this post, because i didn't want to cry the whole time i was writing it. I think now i can do it. Here are some pictures of the house we left behind. I miss it like crazy, but i know we are where we are supposed to be.

So, we have finally settled in! I am so glad that my parents were so willing to let me and my family move in with them. Its a little tight but it works. I am also so glad that my husband and my dad get along so well, and they work together all day! I also wanted to show off what all of their hard work goes to. So when you get an extra second check out www.lightingtheweb.com.

Fun With Dad

2008-10-02T15:17:00.000-07:00

This is what happens when mommy goes to work and daddy takes care of them. The house is usually a mess and the kids are covered in oreos, but they have fun! They love their daddy.

Ode to Bruno......

2008-09-29T22:11:00.000-07:00

I never thought i would say this but i am actually sad to see him go. We have had bruno since the day we moved into our house, and at first i hated him. I would never go out into the kitchen when it was dark in there. However i have grown to be quite fond of him, we even named him, Bruno. I cant believe how bare and empty our wall looks without him there. The only thing that made selling him a little easier was how happy the guy who bought him was. When he walked in and saw him he got all giddy like a little girl, he was so excited. Farewell bruno, you are missed but i know you will be well taken care of.

better today!

2008-07-29T11:55:00.000-07:00

So, i am sorry for my little emotional outburst yesterday! But as promised today will be a happy post. I do have some good news....there is carpet at the bottom of my laundry pile. Yes i am finally caught up on all of my laundry!

I am not sure if any of you have looked at my cute sisters blog Ourcozynest.blogspot.com, but she has been doing a home tour. I figured that since my house is for sale that i should try putting some of the pictures of my house on here. Now i am not nearly as gifted and talented and my sister (no one is) but i have been trying. SO.............tomorrow i will show you some pictures of my house.

Big Girl

2008-06-28T14:55:00.000-07:00

Can you believe it, i thought this day would never come. My big girl is sitting in a big girl chair. She used to hate car rides because she could not see where we were going and the air would not hit her. Now she can see whats going on and can feel the cold air hitting her.

It was so cute this morning, she was singing and making all kinds of noises, and not a cry came out of her mouth! I am in mommy heaven!!!!!

Free Dresser For Me

2008-05-30T16:09:00.000-07:00

before

after

My sister gave me this dresser (it was my grandpas) and at first i thought it was a big piece of crap, but then i saw what it could be! So i sanded it down and stained it black and this is what i got. I put it in my little boys room, and it works great!

Happy Birthday My Baby Girl!!!

2008-05-29T19:44:00.000-07:00

I have been looking around on my computer frantically opening every folder, trying to find my pictures of my cute baby girls first hours here on earth. Just when i was getting ready to start crying thinking i had lost them, it hit me that they were on our other computer!!! I am so glad i remembered. So......pictures will be coming as soon as i can get my hands on them!!!

I am starting to think that kids birthdays are just as much for them moms as they are for the child. All day long i kept thinking about what was happening at this time last year! I felt like today was a day to reflect on how much i love my baby and how much better she has made our family.

Over the last year She has grown so much!! When i say no no she looks at me and shakes her head no. She has the cutest little laugh, its one of those laughs that your know is hurting her little tummy because she is laughing so hard! She has gone through many fazes at first she wanted no one but mom, but now she wants her dad. She knows that when dad comes home he goes through the garage door and as soon as she hears it open she books it to get there before brother! My hubby have agreed that she is so much like her big brother. She like the same food, chocolate, sour cream and onion pringles, cinnamon bread, and grandmas favorite diet coke (only when I'm not looking). I am so glad that i have my perfect little girl she means the world to me!!

Duck Pond

2008-05-26T17:41:00.001-07:00

Can i just tell you that bread never goes moldy at my house (maybe i should put that on the flyer that tells about all the good features that your house offers) . Im not kidding this is the weirdest thing ever, the only reason that a loaf of bread might get thrown in the garbage is because it is stale. Anyway on with my point..... SO i have a bunch of bread that i have been saving because we have this great duck park by my house ( i should put that on the flyer also). Evan has been begging to go to the park for quit some time now, so we finally took him yesterday. It was alot of fun, there were baby geese and baby ducks they were so cute. I think i got some fun pictures (Ryan got mad at me because he said i was taking way to many pictures of him!).

2 Years.....

2008-05-25T10:35:00.000-07:00

Wow, can you believe that i have been married for two years? I cant! I just wanted to take a second and tell the world how much i love my husband, and how much he means to me. I am so lucky to have him. He is Such a great husband and father. He always supports me and helps me, and he is such a hard worker. I LOVE YOU RYAN

Babies

2008-05-23T20:37:00.000-07:00

So, a while ago my sisters and my mom and i all got together for my birthday and we had a sleep over at my house. It was so much fun!! We took some pictures of all the kids, and boy was that a task, one would look and the other two would look away. Even though none of them were looking in the right direction, i still think they look super cute.

WOW I'm Really A Mom

2008-05-11T12:27:00.000-07:00

I know that this might sound a little crazy but sometimes its a little weird to think that i am a mom of TWO! I have always thought of a mom as being old, and i dont feel that old! Even though in my own eyes you have to be old to be a mom, i guess i would rather be old and have my fun, amazing, adorable, perfect little kids, than not have my two amazing big blessings and be young (or at least think i am young)!

holy hair bows

2008-05-02T11:09:00.000-07:00

Its official im addicted! I LOVE hair bows (well you kinda have to when you have a bald baby girl) So a couple of days ago i had some of the ladies in my ward over and everyone brought some ribbon and flower and we shared and swapped with each other, It was a blast! It was so much cheaper to do it this way, you dont have to buy as much ribbon! So these are some of the bows that i made.......

letter frames

2008-04-10T10:26:00.000-07:00

So i love to do crafts, but they have to be so simple or i always mess them up. I was so excited when i found these at my favorite store wood connection. i had the paper already and i just put them together! ENJOY!!

2008-04-02T13:35:00.001-07:00

Make a scrapbook - it's easy!

On the go!!!

2008-03-18T20:30:00.000-07:00

So today i got brave and took a trip into my basement (what was i thinking) and found some of Evans old toys, so i brought them up and Ashley had to much fun. I swear i pushed her around the house all day on that car, but she had so much fun!!!!

HOLY COW, i am so bad at this blog thing!!!!!!!!!! yes the last time that i posted was in Dec. Well i have made a new goal to be better at this!!!!!!! I took some pictures of Ashley and Evan a couple of sundays ago, they were so cute. Ashley is crawling so fast now, i hardly had enough time to take pictures before she got close enough to attack the camera! She is getting so big she is now nine months.

Christmas Pictures

2007-12-06T20:23:00.000-08:00

So i got brave and decided to take some pictures of the kids so i could make some Christmas cards. I think that i got some really funny shots of each of them. My favorite picture is the one of Ashley where you can see just how big her cheeks really are!!

Know it all!!!!

2007-11-15T17:16:00.001-08:00

Ok, so today has been a long day............. I love Evan so much but lets just say he is kinda a know it all. There is nothing like having a 5 year old tell you what to do and how to do it! I was driving somewhere the other day and he said uh shanna i think your going the wrong way. So i asked him were i was going and he said i dont know but your going the wrong way. He is also really good at telling me how to take care of Ashley, he lets me know whenever she is crying even when i am sitting right there! Oh well you got to love him!

Ashley

2007-11-14T18:36:00.000-08:00

Ashley is getting so big! She can sit up on her own! It is so crazy to think that she is old enough to sit up on her own. She is so much fun!

Ryan and I
