Silly Kiddos

Ariana pulled herself onto the side table, and I just happened to snap these pics of her and Konnor playing.  CUTENESS!!!

Day Fifty-Five...


Shot Day

Daddy had to take Ariana to get shots today.  She apparently screamed bloody murder, but was seen around the house as happy as could be that evening (seen in the above picture).

Day Fifty-One...


Who's Dat??

Another crappy cell phone pic, I know.  *le sigh*

Ariana's new obsession is that baby in the mirror.  In the sliding glass door.  In the oven door (pictured here).

Yes, her new obsession is herself.

However, she doesn't realize it's her.  Not yet anyways.

Day Fifty.....


Applebee's Adventures

Ahhh, it sure is amazing how two very smart 3 year-olds can attempt a trickery such as Konnor and Kaden's this evening.

"mommy can i go to his house?" asked Konnor.  "Yeah can he?  Now or later?" Kaden added.  "Please mommy, please" Konnor pleaded, while Kaden pleaded as well.

Those two really tried to work me tonight at dinner!

Needless to say, they lost.  This mommy isn't getting suckered into anything.

They tried the same thing on my BFFFE, Jenny, but she didn't give in either. Haha.

ps, excuse the crappy quality.  Inside a restaurant + cell phone camera = crappy quality!  I did all I could but this was the best I could make it

Day Fourty-Nine....


Sick Day #2

After the doctor told us yesterday that she would be fine with time, I must admit I felt releived.

Until today.

Stress level shooting through the roof between Konnor's new inability to listen and Ariana's crying over every. little. thing.

Poor kids! Haha

Day Fourty-Eight....


The Sun is Shining!

It was an absolute gorgeous day in good ol' Portland, Oregon today.

Unfortunately, by the time Justin and I were motivated, Ariana was ready for a nap.  Being sick, we didn't want to take her out in the weather since it was rather windy.

I can not wait for Spring.  For going to the park.  For walks.

I did get a few ghetto cell phone pics, this being one of them.

Day Fourty-Seven...


The Day Alex Bought A Shiney New Toy

I know, I know, where is the new camera, right?!?!


Well, lol, Best Buy was having a kick ass deal on a new Toshiba, so I jumped on the offer.  The new camera is on temporary hold.  Soon, though, i hope.

Day Fourty-Six...


Self-Humiliation

I could find nothing better to photograph today, so here I am.  In all my yucky glory!

Haha.

Who photographs themselves? (Jenny, don't you dare say anything! lol)

Day Fourty-Five...


Happy Valentine's Day

This is what Justin got for me. :)

Sorry, that's the only preview you get.  Heehee!


I love you, babe!! Thanks for being my Sweetheart for 2010.  Here is to many more years of the same love we share.

Day Fourty-Four....


Hittin The Town In Style

For our Valentine's Day dinner, Justin and I took ourselves out to Outback (which was really Saturday night, not V-day itself).  Due to his "starvation" we hauled Ariana with us instead of having my sister watch her.

I dressed her in a tutu for more of my own amusement than hers. 

At least she has good humor.

Day Forty-Three....


Jail Baby

Snapped this pic just after Ariana woke up from her nap.  Those white things are, indeed, the bars of her crib.

I love how, after a nap, she is so very happy.

Day Fourty-Two.....


Our Last Hoo-RAH!

Justin's mom left today.  After about 36inches of snow where she lived (West Virginia) and two cancelled flights, her extended stay (by four days) came to an end. 

We took a few last minute pictures of Ariana, in all sorts of outfits.  This was one of my favorites.

Ariana and her Easter dress

Day Forty-One....


It Wasn't Me!!

Ariana has found out that her big brother's room is pretty cool!

After spending about an hour (no exaggeration) with Konnor in there earlier, she decided that's where she'd like to spend her evening.


Technorati Test..

Day Forty....


Doctor Konnor!!!

At preschool today, Konnor learned all about doctors.  They sent him home w/ a "doctor bag" (which he is holding but you are unable to see) which included this adorable face mask, the hair net, band-aids, q-tip, and some gauze. 

We played doctor for a little bit, and he just thought it was fun to put band-aids on my leg.

Day Thirty-Nine....


Family Dinner

Ya'll, I cooked!!!

Not just for me and Justin either, since that is normal.

I cooked for my mom and siblings, and Justin's mom.  We were all packed into my litte bitty 2 bedroom apartment. 

Who knows when we will see a day like that, ever.

Day Thirty-Eight.....


"She's Hangin Around..."

Ask Konnor, "Hey Konnor, what's your baby sister doing?" and he will answer, without fail:

"She's just hangin' around."

That's what we did most of Sunday.  We just hung around.

Day Thirty-Seven.....


SNOW!!!

We drove up to Mount Hood in hopes to catch some snow.  We did.  The kids, however, were not too thrilled with the hour-long car ride, so this was about the best picture I have.

Day 3 of Grandma Christine's stay in Oregon

Day Thirty-Six.....


Happy Birthday, Oregon!!

We took picture's today for National Wear Red Day.

I did not take this picture, but felt that it was necessary to document this day as it is important to fight against heart disease!!!

Last month, one of our co-workers lost their wife to a long battle against heart disease.  Not only did we wear red to show our support nationwide, but also for our co-worker and his family.

Aaaaaand, to celebrate Oregon's 151st birthday which is February 14th, 2010.

I love Oregon. 
Oregon is me.
I am an Oregonian.

The celebration of a birthday.  My baby brother, Dalton!

(Thanks, Mom, for uploading the pics!!)

Day Thirty-Four....


Houdini...

Today we stayed home.. Mommy with her migraine and Ariana being.... well, Ariana..

Except, we have a new trick.  Perhaps it was a one-time deal.  If you can see, she wriggled her way out of her jammies.  Yup, and she was pretty happy about it.

I keep calling her my little Houdini baby

Day Thirty-Three.....


Fun With Color


I don't need silly color filters on my ghetto point and shoot camera - I have Ariana's toys! 
Lol
The keys featured in the first picture is how I turned Ariana blue in the second.  The first picture I used some other toy. 
Great entertainment, at least for one of us!

Day Thirty-Two.....


Where the Baby Becomes the Photographer

Or tries to, anyways.  She grabbed as i snapped, and this is what we ended up with.
Also could be named "The Baby's First Juice."
