Cuteness I had to share


Goofball

Silly gal!

One of those first smiles



Looking too precious!

Looks like Keira is going on a shopping spree. I should tell her to put on a top before she goes!

Kaelyn's first Christmas. Kind of looks like a Pope.

HO!HO!HO!

Merry Christmas

Yeah, I know I'm adorable.

Sleeping Beauty

Lovin' chocolate like her mama!



Ladies and gentlemen, meet Miss October 2007!

My little Mama

The whole family and I were in the living room the other night when this happened.







That's right, Kenli had little Keira down on the floor changing her diaper. Matt and I were busy with something for a brief two minutes, and in that time Kenli managed to get Keira to lie down, pulled down her pants, opened her diaper and got another diaper from the changing table before I ever saw any of this.



I lost it when I saw this scene. I actually made Keira lie there for a second just so I could snap a few shots. It was definitely a moment I wanted to record.

And don't worry, I got her up off of the floor and I finished the diaper change.

Farley Favs

Tonight, Saturday Night Live played the best of Chris Farley and I seriously loved it. He was on SNL when I became a religious viewer of the show. Needless to say, I think he had some of my all time favorite characters and skits.




Love the "Van Down By the River" "Well, you'll be livin' in a van down by the river....
WHEN YOU'RE LIVING IN A VAN...
DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!!







The Bears/Bulls "Da Bulls, Da Bulls, Da Bulls, Da Bulls" or "Da Bears, Da Bears, Da Bears, Da Bears" all done with a little hula dance and Chris Farley in a coconut bra. Priceless!






And don't dare forget about him shaking it all with Patrick Swayze as a chip'n'dale dancer. Although I've seen this skit about 5,000 times, I cracked up for the entire scene when I watched it tonight.

My all time favorite has to be "Lunch Lady Land." Loved it when I first saw it and it never ceases to make me laugh hard. He just plays a lunch lady to the 't.'

Awesome endorphin release. Will that count as my ab workout for the day??

Colds, Snow, and Crafts

Wow, what a week we've had. For the past 10 days all 5 of us have been sharing some lovely rhino germs. Yep, some kind of nasty cold has hit our family hard. It seems that this little booger (no pun intended) will be sticking around for a while. Add to that the ice and snow keeping us cooped up in our house. Luckily though, we did not lose power. But that's not to say I didn't prepare for the "Worst Case Scenario."

In between the ice early in the week and the snow today, the girls and I were minus a daddy for a few days. Matt flew to L.A. where he heard some people actually complain about how cold their 60 degree weather was. AHHH- seriously, that's not cold. I bet the draft leaking in under my front door and through the fire place is at least 30 degrees colder than that!Needless to say, this week has run me ragged, but I found a new activity today.

My mom has made these little onzies for the girls in years past and I've alwasy talked about how cute they are and how I'd love to make some too. Well, after a qucik 5 min lesson from dear mom, I "mastered" my new skill. Well that prompted a run to the fabric store where I couldn't keep my fingers or eyes from searching the assortment of all the fabrics. I spent about 15 minutes perusing the oranges, purples, greens, blues and holiday specific patterns- but I could have easily spent 2 hours. But in the time allotted, I did find some fabric perfect for what I want to create. Here are a few holiday onzies that I've finished for the girls.
