Back Online!

Yay!!! Ug, that was the hardest week ever! I didn't realize just how much we rely on the computer. I had pictures I needed to get edited and back to a client. Plus just our day to day stuff... After being forced to buy a new computer we also had to get Adam FOUR new tires for his car. Discover is loving us this month!

Ryann has been home since Friday. She is getting too big! She can now right just about anything if you spell if for her. She still won't try my name, says it's too long, but she is doing great. She can right a few words w/ out any assistant. She has been able to write Ryann and Mommy for some time now. She can also write the word FOX, and her sister's name Kamri. I think she just about has Daddy down too. Aiden is pretty easy for her as well- just getting too big! Aiden has learned to write the letter A. They both blow us away daily!

Aiden has started an art class, and really seems to be loving it! They do some really fun crafts. He is doing wonderful at gymnastics. Last week his coach said if he were a few months older she would recommend he be moved to the next level, but since he is only 14 months they can't move him for safety issues. He really impressed me. Ashelynn may not be the only gymnast in the family!

School is just about over for Adam. Then it's on to summer school. He is doing great, but really; did anyone think he wouldn't?? Not me!

Life for me is full of choices right now. I'm trying to decided if I really want to open a studio.... I LOVE being a photographer, but the idea scares me. It would mean lots of hours at the studio, that means time away from my family. I'm just beginning to wonder if it really means that much to me. Plus the huge fear of failing... I'm getting more and more curious about going to school to be a dental assistant. No matter what I decided, I plan on going back to school once Adam is finished. I'm thinking about going back to work until then. So, with all that said, please keep me in your prayers, I really need to make the right decision for me and our family.

Hope you're all doing great! I'll try to get pictures up soon.

Where Have We Been?

Ummm, well our computer has passed on. So, right now we don't have one. I know it's very sad. We've been super busy!! Last Saturday we attended Suzette's wedding. It was BEAUTIFUL! She looked absolutely AMAZING!!! We are so happy for her!!! Aiden had a wonderful time at the reception, I've never seen a kid who loves to dance so much! I'll be sure and upload the pictures when we get a new computer.

Other than that I guess I don't have much to update you on. Ryann will be here this weekend, and we can't wait! Aiden told us last night, "I wanna see Sissy, where is Melny (Melony- Ryann's mommy)" It was very VERY sweet. They are growing too fast!

I guess that's it for now. If you all wouldn't mind sending me your mailing addresses (again). Those were all on the computer....

Hope you're doing great!
Lots of love!!!!

Happy Easter!!!

Hope you all had a wonderful day! We sure did!! Ryann was with her mommy today, so we did most of our Easter celebrating last weekend. Adam, Aiden and I did go to church and lunch with Gamma and Papa. Aiden got to do his forth egg hunt, and participate in the church service. He did SO great! After lunch we just hung out at Gamma and Papa's house. A lazy day really, well except for the grandparents. Aiden didn't give them much time to sit and rest. New pictures up in the Easter folder and April folder.

Hope you all had a blessed day!

Can you see it?

Some people don't seem to be seeing our new banner... so let me know if you can/can't. You should be seeing a picture that looks exactly like this:

Let me know!
Thanks!

We've got a new look

And I would LOVE to hear what you think about it! I worked VERY hard on this, and would love any input. I HATE working with HTML, so if I've done something terribly wrong PLEASE let me know! If not, I would love to hear you singing my praises... or just a good pat on the back will do. Thanks for your help Ember!

What does Child proof really mean?!

Because I can tell you it doesn't mean that your child can't open it! Yesterday Aiden opened a bottle that had a child proof top on it; I really thought I probably just didn't put the top on right or something. Well, seems that wasn't the case at all! Last night he (Aiden) woke up with a headache, so Adam got out some medicine for him. We left the bottle sitting on our night stand.... I just looked over and Aiden was pulling the cotton out of the bottle. Now I know we shouldn't have left the bottle sitting there - dumb on our part, I get that. But come on! It has a child "proof" top. Needless to say, all our child "proof" bottles will be moved out of the little guys reach! I don't know to be proud of him for figuring this out, or panic; because it could lead to potential danger!!! God help us!

Amazing...

Aiden and I were out running errands earlier. We passed a rather large house. Aiden says, "Look Mommy, tat amaz'n house!" I was floored! I knew he knew the word amazing, but I had no clue he really understood what it meant. He is just too big!

Another week gone by....

And still no post?! Ha! Life is good, which means it is also BUSY!!! Last week seems like a million years ago, and I can't remember a thing. SO, we'll just skip to the weekend. We picked up Ryann Thursday afternoon. You guys would not believe how grown she is! Sometimes it's like talking to a mini 14 year old. She keeps us rolling with the things she says! Her counter part, little brother is much the same. I swear to you, he is the funniest kid! From what I remember about Pop, Adam's grandpa; I think Aiden has his sense of humor - it seems to come very natural to him. He is just too funny :)

So, we picked Ryann up Thursday and had a wonderful time talking about all the fun things she has been up to. She is now a BIG girl, and can swing all by herself - meaning she no longer needs an adult to push her! Friday was Daddy's day off, so we hung out at home, we tried to take the kids to see Meet the Robinson's in 3D, but we had some AWFUL rain and the lights went out, so they sent us home. Ryann will be with her Mommy this weekend for Easter. The Easter bunny must have known, because when we woke up Saturday morning Ryann and Aiden each had a basket full of goodies waiting. We had an egg hunt, (inside because of all that rain) then headed back to the theater. It was a really cute movie. Aiden did really great; he even kept his glasses on for the WHOLE movie! Sunday the kids got all dressed for Easter and we headed to Papa and Gamma's house where more Easter goodies and an egg hunt were ready and waiting.

It was another great weekend, that we were sad to watch pass so quickly. We can't wait for next weekend when Ryann will be back, but until then we hope she has a great time with her mommy.

I have been hard at work getting pictures uploaded. You wouldn't believe how many pictures we have! I just need to get the rest of 2004 and 2005 up and then we'll be all caught up! Take a look; you'll be amazed at how much these kids have grown is such a short amount of time! All the pictures are up from this weekend too.

Take care, and have a wonderful week!!!
