Back in the GAME!

Ok, I had a little slip, but I'm caught up now.

Tyler wanted to look "cool" for school this morning, so he put on Zak's tie and we gave him a super tall faux hawk. He's one crazy kid, and always has to put on a show. Too cute!!

(3.30.2010) More Catch-Up

Believe it or not, she really does like her applesauce!

(3.29.2010) "Catch-Up"

OOPS! Busy editing last night...(3.28.2010)

Another practice photo shoot with my cousin's family!

Manual Practice

Just thought I would pratice a little manual focusing today. I suppose it's about time I do.

...almost finished...

I think I am going to add some black ribbon with little white polka dots to this tutu. I just have to check out Hobby Lobby tomorrow to see what they have.

"A Look Back" at the evening..

We took a little drive around the neighborhood tonight to get Isabella to relax. She was a bit crabby tonight! I looked in my mirror, and the sunset looked so pretty that I decided to pull over and snap a pic!

Bella, again.

Bella is really into stuffed toys lately. She gets really excited when you put one in front of her. Her arms start going and she gets very vocal. LOVE it!

3.23.2010 NO INTERNET!

I had to post yesterday's picture today, because when I sat down last night to upload, my internet signal was gone! Finally, this afternoon it was fixed. This was the FIRST time I missed a post, and it wasn't even MY fault. Grrr.

Anyway, here's BELLA! She loves to lay on my knees/shins and get airplane rides. She is so interactive now and loves to play!

We have a ROLLER!

Bella ROLLED over from tummy to back today for the first time! Yay Bella Boo! I got a video of her "second" time rolling over, but I am having a hard time getting it uploaded. I will try again tomorrow.

Skateboarding Super Heroes

Josslyn was playing with Tyler's toys today. I just thought it was cute how she had them all lined up.

Face Lift

Finished! I got a TV stand from my sister and decided to give it a little face lift. It was a dark cherry finish with rectangular brass pulls on the drawers. I painted the whole thing antique white, then painted the insides of the shelves black. I then took off the pulls and sanded the drawers a little so I could add these cute red and black knobs I bought. I LOVE the finished product.

Happy Birthday Kaleb!

Today we celebrated Kaleb's 6th birthday. Kaleb is my BFF Heather's son. Then the two of them came and stayed with us for the night, so the grown-ups could watch New Moon. (Oooh, I LOVE my Edward! LOL)

YummO

I don't think this photo needs a description.

=)

Awww!

A rare occasion when Tyler and Josslyn aren't arguing! Lol!

New Tutu

There's a new tutu and matching flower headband in the works! I love these colors!

Zak's School Pictures

This year I decided to take my own school pictures for Zak. (thanks Mamee for the idea) I'm sick of paying $40.00 for a single, boring pose. Here is one of them...I'm going to do a bunch and let Zak choose a few to print and take to school to exchange.

Almost Spring

Today we had a beautiful "almost spring" day. Here's Jamie walking with Tyler while he rides his "big" bike.

Tough Girl

She's getting SO strong! She's doing great during tummy time, now we just need to get her to roll over. Such a cute lil stinker!

Re-Make

The top picture is of myself, my brother and my sister many years ago. It also happens to be mom's favorite. So today, for her birthday, we tried to re-create the scene. Not perfect, but close!

Sleepy

Tyler skipped his nap today (bad idea) and fell asleep on the couch right before dinner. Man, I love those lashes!!!

BUSY BUSY BUSY

I am super busy tonight working on some things for Mamee, so I don't have time to take and edit pictures! Mamee is the featured artist for March at Becket's restaurant downtown. I decided to post one of the beautiful pictures she took of Bella. If you get to Becket's this month, you will see this one hanging up!

Jade -n- Bella

Jade was a HUGE help tonight keeping Bella happy while Mamee and I worked on attaching foam board to her photos. Mamee will be displaying her work at Beckets until the end of the month! Very exciting!

Posterize

Josslyn and Ava came over to play tonight after eating dinner at Fazolis. It is a rare occasion when all three of them get along! =) There were a lot of colors and patterns going on, so I decided to "posterize" the photo. I think it looks pretty neat.

Iria and Isabella

Iria (my cousin's daughter) came over to play with Bella on Sunday while her mommy did my mom's hair. They were so cute together. I know the picture wasn't taken today, but it was edited today. It was just so cute I had to put it up anyway!

3 Musketeers

It was not an easy task getting a good picture of these three boys! But I think it turned out pretty good. (from left, Zak, Tyler, Kaleb)

Mom's Surprise 51st Birthday Party

Fire Station

Daddy chaperoned Tyler's field trip to the fire station today. They had SO much fun.

Miracles DO Happen

Today my boys were having a hard time staying out of trouble. They were either fighting with each other or not listening to me. All of a sudden I looked over at the chair and they were sitting next to each other watching TV. NOT FIGHTING! It's a MIRACLE! =)

This Little Piggy...

I cannot explain just how much I LOVE these stinky little feet! Fuzzies and all. I could just kiss them all day long! My favorite thing is when I put those little piggies on my nose and she squeezes it!

Siesta

Tyler didn't want to nap today, so I told him he could rest on the couch. I guess Isabella's Boppy pillow was super comfy, because he passed right out on it! He got his nap after all.

Mom - 1 Tyler - 0

Fox River Mall

Tyler and Rayne chillin' in the firetruck at the Fox River Mall today. Nice face Tyler!
