Playing red light, green light, balencing on 1 foot, Tristin holding Willow & playing Bingo with G-ma






I bought a really cool traffic light at a yard sale for a $1.00 and I have it hanging in the kitchen- so when Mom & Brent were here, they started playing Red light, Green light- they looked so funny, grown adults moving 2 steps and then freezing in place when the light turned red- here's one of Mom playing with the kids. The other one is of Tristin & Daisy trying to balance on 1 foot with their eyes closed (Just another goofy thing Brent wanted to see them do!)The next is of Tristin holding Willow and the other 2 are of our fabulous Bingo game. Mom & i always go to the dollar store and buy Bingo prizes and then play a kabillon Bingo games- the goofy glasses were one of the prizes, the kids were cracking up!

Willow, Mommy & the kids & saying goodbye at the airport...




These are kind of random pictures, but I'm trying to get them up in time for my Mom to see them by the time she gets into work this morning. Here's one of Willow in her cute owl outfit, a picture of me with my babies & the kids with G-ma & G-pa saying goodbye at the airport.

Reading stories & G-ma with the girls...






It's tradition, when ever G-ma is around, she reads stories to the kids. Here they are enjoying one- and the rest are pictures of G-ma with her girls!

Exercising with G-pa Brent...





My step Dad, Brent, is one of the funniest and silliest people I've ever met. Growing up, he would pay us a dollar to do the strangest things, and naturally, we would do it! (Like: singing Christmas carols to our neighbors in the Summer time, running backwards down the street, standing on a chair and singing a song for the family & on & on & on...) So when he comes to visit, he makes the kids do crazy exercises- which they do until they are giggling so hard they can't do anything else. So while these pictures seem kind of uneventful, they make me smile because I know that Brent's wild energy is being shared with my children who completely adore their G-pa.The other picture is of Tristin & G-pa playing with his Bakugan toys.

My baby turns 32!



It's hard to believe I've been with this studly man for an entire decade, but it is true. We went out to our favorite resturant - Goodwood, to celebrate. (My batteries were dead, again, so no pictures of the kids eating ribs!)Trav's parents were able to make it, Mom & Brent came and I was in Heaven eating my incredible sandwich. It was a great day.

G-ma gives Willow a bath...



There is something all 3 of us girls all have in common- we all love a good bath!

Carmel apples & haunted Halloween houses...






The kids couldn't wait for G-ma & G-pa to come so they could make all the fun/yummy things I never take the time to do with them. Here they are making carmel apples and haunted Halloween houses!

Grace in the leaves & Mommy & Willow at the park...



We took the girls to the park yesterday, it felt so good to get out and get some fresh air! Grace looked so cute jumping in the leaves before we left.( I would have taken more, but my batteries were almost dead)

My little flower & my little tree...



My Mom has always called me her flower child, and I agree, I was definatly born in the wrong era- I should have been born in the 60's.
Here's my proof- another picture of my little flower- (Daisy) and my little tree- (Willow).

Willow is 3 weeks old!



I'm already wondering where the time went, Willow is already 3 weeks old today! My goodness! I wish there was something more exciting to post, something more glamourous to write about- but she's still sleeping most of the day, the kids are still loving her to death, she's still eating well (she's 8lbs 6 oz) and we are still thrilled to have her! Sometimes no news- is good news!
