babies room...almost

this is the blanket i made last week...its very boy and im not supposed to be doing gender specific stuff but I DID and love it! this is the mobile i made a few months ago...its much more fantastic in person

this is the changing table dresser we bought and i painted a while ago, eventually it will have a changing pad on it and such

a messy bookcase for our kids, im running out of room

our new crib we bought before Christmas...a mattress is soon to follow.

next step....BABY, a little at a time we are preparing for baby!

Completed bassinette

This was the last of the baby projects we wanted to get done... and well its done! WOOHOO Daniel did such an amazing job on it, the pictures don't do it justice but it was fun working together on it. It's bigger than a standard bassinette but smaller than a crib and it does rock and for a while too. So fun and we just can't wait.
Since the bassinette has been done and we had it in the "babies room" Sylus insists checking in the room everynight when we get up ot go potty. :) I love animals, they just seem to get it you know?
Our caseworker informed me lastnight that everything is done and we should be online by the end of the month... YES!
(p.s isn't our flooring sweet? Yeah in this room alone we have 5 different types of wood, CLASSY)
(P.S.S. Thanks for checking in on my blog Jon all the way from the desert :))

Texas happenings

Daniel reminded me about 3 days into my visit that I need to be taking pictures, I always forget. I had a great time but it went way too fast.
Heading to San Antonio Kaeson resting up.

The Alamo, it was cool... word on the street was "You can't go to San Antonio without seeing the Alamo!" So here we were, they boys did great they liked looking at the swords and guns but aside from that its more of a "don't touch" adult place. But it was neat to see. The whole family went Bethany, her honey, and their boys!

Watching cartoons waiting for dad to get back with breakfast.

Perfect boys I love them oh so much!

Kaes laying on the edge watching all the dolfins in the water, they were jumping like crazy this time.

Seeing all the Shamus( they are ALL named Shamu) was awesome they were right on with the music, it was a fantastic day.

Thats me with SHAMU! They picked me out of the whole audience to come down, suit up and swim with him! Just kidding but its freaky how much the trainer looks like me!

Sesame Street countdown to halloween, it was pretty great and the boys loved it.

I'm so proud of those boys, they were great kids all day. We got there about 10 am we ate breakfast before we went and didn't really have any food or drink ( beside a fiber one bar or fig newton for lunch) until 630pm when we left. We were all running on adrenaline. Once we sat down in the car we all started to get grumpy... my sis and I wore flipflops but it was all so fantastic we didn't notice the pain till we sat down... ahhh

Kaeson zonked with his new orca.

Kael sleeping with his new dolfin after a big long day at seaworld.

Traegen just enjoying his auntie.

Sweet little baby toes.

I brought the boys those glow in the dark stars and we used this blue
sticky putty to put them on the ceiling, they preferred using it for rhino snouts.

Kael being a rhino.

Kaeson with horns and all.

It was defenitly cold the day I left... or so Kaeson thought! Getting ready to take me to the airport, Kaeson was wrapping their stuffed animals in this blanket so they wouldn't get wet. So cute.

Last week I went to texas to visit my sister and her cute family. I had an amazing time... it was actually pretty crappy having to leave them! I warned Daniel not to expect me at the airport when he came to get me, I never wanted to leave

Onesies.... I did awhile ago!

NASTY FREAKY

you can see that it is nearly the same size as the opening of this large glass.... about a sand dollar.

I REALLY DON'T LIKE SPIDERS! WHOA NO THANK YOU AND THIS IS ONE OF TWO THAT WE FOUND...... (sorry spider lovers) AND KILLED!

4 Years ago today I was married....
