happy birthday danika!

Jodi is really great about posting pictures on someone's birthday, so I thought I would copy her idea. I got this picture of Danika off of Jodi's blog. I couldn't resist...it is too cute!
Happy 1st Birthday, sweet Dani! We love you!

funny moment

Roger was whistling yesterday and here is what Emilia said:

"I can't whistle, but I sure can hum!"

a sneak peek

We went to the pumpkin patch over the weekend. I thought it would be fun to share some pictures of our trip there last year compared to our trip this year. Enjoy! I'll post more about the patch later.

my happy baby

I just wanted to post some pictures of Avery playing. She really enjoys exploring the house. Her new favorite...the bathroom! We love watching her crawl. She will be cruising along at a normal pace and then all of a sudden, she turns on the turbos. She wrinkles up her nose and makes a sniffing sound when she is really on the move. The sniffing sound gets faster when her crawling gets faster. It's too cute!

another sunday funny

Emmie, when watching Veggie Tales today...

"I don't laugh anymore when Larry plays the tubo."

can a girl get some privacy?

so i've been thinking...

Today was my last day to have hgtv and TLC. While the girls nap, I usually sit down and watch these two channels. I haven't scrap booked since before Avery was born. That's a little over 9 months ago! Poor little thing doesn't even have one page done in her scrapbook. From now on, I could spend nap time watching General Hospital, or I could get busy scrap booking. I probably better opt for the scrap and not the smut!

the funny things kids say

A conversation on our way home from church today.

Emmie: "Mommy, can I ride my bike today?"
Me: "Maybe, if the wind goes down." (it's very windy here today)
Emmie: "But I don't want to ride my bike with the wind down. I want to ride with it up."

my girls and me

Just playing around with different layouts! Roger took these pictures of the girls and me today.

a blogger at last

Okay. I have officially set up a blog! I am really hoping I can keep it updated. I have decided that this is kind of like creating a bulletin board, a part of teaching I do miss. For now, I will leave you with these pictures of my beautiful Emilia Faith and Avery Grace. That is...if I can figure out how to post pictures. MISSION COMPLETE!
