Fun project day and fun with cousins

Santa asked me to repaint this kitchen that Alli adores!
Alli picked this outfit herself and who am i to tell her no on this one? wow! nice socks Alli!
Shaelie and Alli on the tramp. They love it, and each other most of the time........

What the kitchen looked like pre paint. It was ugly!!!

Little smooch to my favorit gal!!
Alli wanted to help but ended up with quite a bit on herself. Cant stop a natural artist i guess.
Ta Da!!!

Alli and Shaelie

Alli is my little performer. Always has been. As some of you witnessed she has been singing since birth. It definatly does not come from me.

One more week!

Im leaving this blog for one more week for your emails! Please get them to me!!!!

Im 29 yrs old! Yikes!!


Our resort in Sedona!
Alli and I out for a night swim. And lets all keep in mind Im seven months preg not fat!

About to take the plunge!!!

Our view from our room! So pretty!!!


So im 29 and wondering where its gone. Im about to have two kids and still feel 20-25 ish! Do I have to act grown up or can I stay silly and wild? Ive tried both but somehow babies make you grow up, start going to bed earlier and im worried about nap time and how many fruits and veggies Alli has eaten instead of where my next wild fun adventure may be. Hmmm, I guess Ill grow up like everybody else but I cant guarentee Ill act my age, its just not in me!

Check Me Out!

I just updated my blog with a new look and now I've decided to go private, so I need everyone's email addresses so I can make sure all of you can still check in. Please leave me a comment with your email address so I can collect all of them and add you to the blog!

Also, I just started making and selling custom crocheted baby blankets and dresses. I'm setting up a blog to post my work and will be updating it soon! Come on over and check it out! Mini Finny Designs.

Be patient with me and my new domestimications!

I'm feeling good, Alli is good and quickly approaching the "terrible twos" but I guess I can't complain because she's been an absolute angel to this point! I hope new little Nora (oh yeah, now I can tell you it's a girl! James now knows) doesn't send Alli over the edge! (Or me!)

Update on our doings







We have been really busy the last two weeks since we have been home. We have not done anything to exciting just normal things like play play play and going with Jen to get hair cuts for the boys and Alli. It is so nice to have space to play and get back on a normal schedule.
Im feeling good these days. Im 22 weeks now and not to big but I know from last time that the last couple months can pack it on. Alli is aware that there is a baby but if you ask her if its a "sister" she says "ya" and if you ask her if its a "brother" she says "ya" so Im a little unaware of how much she really knows or understands.

Remember Jeff always




Nana, Grandpa, Alli and I went to visit Jeff during the time we were in Moses Lake. Its very surreal to think he is gone. I do know, and take comfort, that he watches out for all of us that know and love him. I hope that through stories and taking Alli to the semetery that she will know her "uncle Jeffy".

Ice blocking


This was very fun! I haven't done this since mutual, and we all know that was a long time ago. James says its just something I heard they did. Alli loved it and it wore everyone out running up and down the hill!!

Alli and I before church. We dont always look as great after!

The deck is finished!



The deck that James rebuilt did not get completly stained. It has been looking half done for a couple months now. So with nothing else to do I busted out the stain and brushes and went to town. It looks gorgeous finished and with all the flowers on it. Im pretty proud of myself, it was my first deck project!

Inca

Inca is the best Mexican food ever. Alli loves the salsa. She will eat a whole bowl herself. A lot ends up on her!



mmmm delicious!

Saturday fun


Today was really fun! We took Alli to the water park and met the Reed boys. We all got a little burned in the Texas sun but enjoyed it none the less. After swimming we got the car washed, wet to the movies then went to the Reeds for dinner. The picture above is of Adrian and Alli. All of the boys love playing with Alli, and Im sure she doesnt mind all of the attention.

Evening walk


We have a really pretty trail behind our apartment in Texas. Being that it is really hot and humid we went on a walk at night. Alli loves her stroller for about twenty min, then she wants to fly!
