April 29, 2010


Earlier on in the week, Hannah came home from school with one of these fortune teller things. I had so much fun with these when I was little. It's fun to see Hannah enjoying things I enjoyed. So far I'm going to have lots of fun this summer, I'm going to do well in school and I will sing and dance with Mr. Kusler. :)

We have a special place we put Emerson's binkies (aka Mo) when she's not using them. This green bowl (my favorite) has become a binky catch all. Out of the entire bowl there are only 3 or 4 that she actually likes. I'm quite certain we are going to have a much harder time breaking her of them than we did Hannah. She LOVES her Mo. Oh, what have we done?! :)

Part of my Chiropractic treatment includes a massage every other week and that is fine by me. Too bad they are only for a half of an hour. Kind of a rip off. :)

Emerson has such a unique way of swinging. Her bottom never touches the seat, only her upper back. Strange, strange girl. :)

We spent the morning with the Pohl's before heading home. Grace and her friend Rachelle are in to jumping pictures. I had them all jump for me. I think out of the 750 pictures I took 2 weren't blurry. :) Tom is pretty impressed with his "hops".

The main purpose of our trip over the mountains was surprise party for Nana. We love you!

Once again, too many pictures from a short weekend in Spokane so I'm spreading them out. We headed out to the Base for a school carnival. Tom got really excited when Eddie suggested we take two cars, one of them being the Jeep. Even though it was a little chilly, Tom thought it was pretty cool. :)

Emerson LOVES that Aubrey is back and living next door. We missed them while they were in California, but are so glad that her and her mom, Tiffany, are back.

Oh baby! I've been going to the Chiropractor for the last few months. I initially went in for my lower back, but then my neck decided that it wanted some attention. My neck has been so sore and stiff that Dr. Wilson decided to try this out. I'm not really sure what it did, but after 4 days it felt a bit better. I just hope it's not something she wants to do very often. Can you say Sexy? :)

Hannah stayed home from school today with a fever. This is how I found them when I came out to tell them it was time for lunch. That's normal for Emerson, but not so much anymore for Hannah. I knew she wasn't feeling well.

Another beautiful Spring day outside with Daddy. This time they were on the hunt for worms.

We got to "meet" Ree Drummond...aka...The Pioneer Woman today. She called Tom a "younger, handsomer version of Philip Seymour Hoffman". He heard "handsome" and stopped listening...his girlfriend called him handsome. =)

A simple sentiment of how the girls and I are feeling today. A great big Hoo-Ray for Tom being home. After we picked Hannah up from school we played outside until the sun went down. It was a good day.

A beautiful way to put an end to a long tax season. JJ & I took the kids up to Mount Vernon to walk through the tulips. Seriously beautiful - made my day. Well, that and that it was the last day of tax season. Woo Hoo!

One of the shower gifts I received when I was pregnant with Hannah was this cute "bobble" cow and a "bobble" pig. The pig didn't quite make it, but this cow certainly has. It makes me laugh every time I look at it. There is just something about that face.

Emmie is always sneaking my coffee, she loves coffee. That would explain why she's kissing the cup.

Jacob came over to play today before school. I tried to sneak a picture of the popcorn mess that Emerson made, but these two had other plans for my picture.

Baby shower time! Baby "Sven" will be making his arrival around the 1st of June and we couldn't be happier for Heather & Jeff!

So I missed Friday. Oh well. Tom's last Saturday of tax season and it was a beautiful day. I almost felt bad for him having to work. The girls played (fought over) on the swing for most of the afternoon.

Nana was in town again for the night so we met her at Azteca for dinner. It's always a treat to see Nana. Throw in some fried ice cream and you've got yourself a GREAT day.

Tom got his cookbook back today. He was happy to have it back in his possession. Beck sent it to PW to have her sign it along with hers and a book for the Monroe Christian School auction. Too bad we just found out she'll be in town in a few weeks for a book signing.

Although Hannah denies doing it, someone felt the need to profess her love for Jacob G in the window sill. Who knew Emerson was so advanced in her writing skills.

The girls made off like a bandit with the Easter bunny. They didn't get much candy in their baskets but the eggs were something else. I have a feeling that I'll be taking this stash to work to share with the office. The two of them raked in over $45 in change! I'm definitely taking part in the egg hunt next year! Watch out girls!

Tom bought these flowers for me. He knows how much I love my Gerbera daisies. I think he was happy to have us home. :)

One of our stops was to Mary Kay's (Tom's aunt) house. It was fun for the girls to see more of their cousins...even if it was just for a short time. The only one missing is Oliver, who belongs to Tom's cousin Gina, and they live in Alaska.

Olivia & Laila belong to Tom's cousin Stashia, Hannah, Emerson, Mary Kay who is holding Jackson who belongs to Tom's cousin Joel and then Jakob and Alex.

I can't get enough of these two. Emerson loves "Bob". I couldn't resist this picture. Emerson was so intrigued with Daisy and her peanut butter filled toy.
