Good pic of new hair

As rare as it is to get to get a picture of myself that I like, I thought I'd post this one that my son took of me. (I think I may have mastered the "fake smile"!!)

Random Pictures

I just took all of the pictures off of my camera. It had been a REALLY long time so there were TONS of pictures. Here's a little sampling!

Someone little thought it would be a good idea to bang her head on the front window one a newly cold and high pressure kind of day. (She only got a scratch.)



We love to make Chinese food! Yum, I wish I had the ingredients to make that tonight!



Yes, it's been a long time since I got the pictures from my camera! FALL!!



A really cool double rainbow!



Real estate!



I got a really cool amaryllis from Willard Bay Gardens this year. It is now blooming for the third time this season! I even got better instructions to get it to bloom again! Even if it doesn't work, it was so worth the $15 to have flowers in my house during the winter!



Books for Christmas! He is such a great reader!!




I love to take pictures of our trees. One of these days I'll print and frame them and make a photo collage on the wall of our trees through the seasons.



It's interesting to see what we've been up to over the last several months by looking at these pictures. There were 477 of them and now I need to organize! Yay!

Natural Beauty Products

They may not need beauty products but my girls sure love to use the natural stuff anytime they can! I love to catch them at it!














Who knows? Maybe they have softer skin and hair because of it!!

Moon

I was looking at my blog and I decided it needed more pictures. I found this one. I don't even remember taking it, but I thought it was beautiful. My neighbors probably thing I'm nuts since I can be found laying on the ground, pointing up in the sky and everything in between to get a good picture!

Updates?

I started with choosing some pictures to post here, so I guess I'll finish by telling you what's been going on in our lives! I'll just take the pictures as they come!

He is getting huge and smart! He loves reading and playing chess and video games!

He is also getting really good at karate! He has a great teacher and is learning a lot.

Me, hum... I've been working like crazy to get my classes done to be ready to take the real estate licensing test! I think I'll make it and get it all in by the end of the year!

I was also recently called to be the primary president in my ward!


We got a second dog. My niece is allergic, so we are taking care of Bingley until she can handle him or forever.

The little one has become quite the little helper! Nothing is safe!

She also loves to run away! She thinks it is hilarious to run away outside, or when I'm ready to change her diaper, or when she's stolen a toy from her sibling!

#2 is a handful! She is adorable and a lot of fun, but is also FULL of attitude! Do any of you want to be her mom for me when she's 16?? Just let me know!

Halloween was a lot of fun! The kids got plenty of candy and had a great time!

The man of the house is busy working at the local high school as well as a private school part time. We keep busy, but we're having fun, too!

So, there you have it! We are doing well and having fun! There isn't a lot of spare time in our lives but we're making it!

Look Who's One!

This has been a really busy year and so in some ways it went by so fast, but in others it has seemed really slow!

I'm so happy to have Doodle in my life! She is an amazing little girl! She is just bursting with excitement and energy all the time!! She is so funny and fun to have in our family! I'm so glad she's ours!

Here's her life in pictures!!

Starting with me very pregnant with her. (This is at our false alarm! You'd think I wouldn't have one of those with my third baby!)

11 Months Times Three

I'm a bit late on this one but I thought it would be fun to show all three kids at 11 months!

It is interesting to look at them and see how similar they look now, but how different they looked as babies!!

Haircut

So, I did it! I cut off about 10 inches of my hair. I'm finally going to get to donate it to Locks of Love! I took off more than I really wanted to, but it will grow back!
