April 11th

The three Amigos here. They had a great time hunting eggs at Aunt Amy's house today!! We should thank mama Sharon too!!

April 10th

Such a great picture. Guess what we did tonight??? We had some help from our favorite Carter family. It was a great evening. And not too many broken eggs. Only 1 or 2 I think?

The kiddos getting some help from Aunt Lisa or "Aunt Weesa" as she is also known around here.

April 9th

So I couldn't decide on one favorite today. This is Miss Abby. Sometimes Noelle and I take the kids over to the football field so they can run off their energy and on occasion we try to walk the track. (Yeah right!! Not so much these days). But I love this pic.
And here you can see they are in major conversation with each other!!

April 8th.

I have gotten bad about taking pics in the last few weeks. Here is a day that I forgot. Oops!!

April 7th

I should also mention that she LOVES salad as much as she loves her binky. You can rest assured that if someone is eating salad you are sure to find her in your lap.

April 6th

My sweet girl. This is how she usually looks. The girl LOVES her binky, and she always has it cocked to the side of her mouth like you see here.

April 5th

Let's plant some grass seed. This is a bare spot in the backyard where our little pool normally sits. We forgot to fill in the space last fall with the grass seed.

April 4th

Today we actually had some professional pictures taken, so when I get them they will be my picture of the day. But I thought I'd take a minute to show you video that Drew shot with my little camera of us trying to get ready. Avery has decided she has an opinion about what she wears. Never mind the big flabby arm. Ahhh a glimpse of life with a strong willed toddler :)

April 3rd


Here she is again..... Me do it mommy!!

April 2nd

Shhhh!!! Sleeping baby. Is there anything cuter than this????? Not very often do I actually have to go in a wake her up in the morning. But today I did. It's a good thing I always have a camera around. She has been sleeping so well lately! And yes she has to go to bed with 2 blankets, and her little Dora doll which you can't see in the picture. These are her favorite things right now, oh and the binky she is holding in her hand.

April 1st


So as the story goes. She is 22 months and we have hit the "me do it" phase. Here she was trying to get her jammies on!

March 31st


Odd picture I know!!! Yesterday I had a punch biopsy done to a spot on my leg. I suppose when your husband has melanoma it does crazy things to your mind. Anyway. They had issue and couldn't get it to stop bleeding so I not only had 6 sutures but a big nasty bruise as well.

March 30th

A photo everyday right...not the most interesting but it does capture what was going on today. The stupid garage door opener broke again......they were expensive and this particular one has been nothing but junk. Here is the hubs trying to fix it. I was just happy that it wasn't on my side of the garage :)

March 29th

Ugly counter tops be gone!!!!!!
So today we were bored.....well my hubby was bored. We decided to head to Lowes...lookin for a project. We always have a project :) Yep, look real close- that really is a trash compactor in my kitchen. Jealous aren't ya?? It's gone too thank goodness.

March 28th


Proof that spring has sprung!! Now if I could only figure out how to get Avery to look at the camera.

March 27th

These were too cute not to share them both. We headed to the Tolson house for a Tastefully simple party tonight. This is Avery sitting in her own world playing with a sticker book. The girl LOVES stickers!

This second pic was actually taken friday morning. I happened to walk in and catch Drew helping Avery put on socks....she thought she needed socks with her dress...anyway!!! He actually was doing this on his own free will. He is so sweet to her! I'm just glad that my camera is ALWAYS handy.

March 26th

My first self portrait in the bathroom mirror...not bad for my first attempt! Dang I look so tired!!

March 25th


Avery is really loving playing with her babies. She insisted that I take a picture of this baby in the stroller tonight. I was trying to get a picture of her playing with the baby--and she kept telling me "no mommy....baby". And pointing at the baby in the stroller.

March 22nd

So I found Drew in the tree in the backyard.  He was yelling for me because he had hurt his finger which you can tell by the picture he is holding on to them and making funny faces.  Today was a beautiful spring day and we spent the afternoon in the backyard putting together the trampoline the kids had gotten for christmas.  Oh what's that?  Why no pics of the trampoline today?  Well I was just too busy jumpin' myself.  Yeah...had crazy sore legs the next day too.  And I found out that you shouldn't jump too high with a weak bladder :)

March 21st.

Today we headed out to my sisters house to pick up a few of our tools that had been left behind...for about a year or two I think!  (Yes, really).  This is my niece Kiley being her rotten little self with her little gumballs that you see in the bag there.  Avery of course is just looking at her trying to figure out what she thinks is so funny!

I did not take a picture again today.......... and I'll tell you why.   It was the last friday of winter quarter.  Exhaustion had taken over.  We headed straight to our "favorite Carter" house for dinner, and I got drunk!!!!!!!!  Really I did.  It was much needed too :)  Thanks Lisa for sharing your wine with me:)

March 19th


So really I slacked today....and I forgot to take a picture.  I know.  So here is a cute one that I like anyway.  It just wasn't taken on the 19th.

This is so Drew.....always proceeding with caution!!!

March 18th


Happy 28th Birthday to my little sister!!
She decided to gather ALL of us for dinner at Applebees.

March 17th

Happy St. Patty's Day!!!
Kiss me I'm Irish!!

These were too cute not to post 2 of them today!

March 16th

I love this.
Yes they really are as interested as they appear.
They were once again "deer hunting" My kids would play this for hours if I let them.

March 15th

You know that spring is in the air when the boys are polishing up the golf clubs!! Ick...I find golf so boring!

March 14th

This is his modeling look. What he is modeling was his new hair cut of course. He refused to let me take a picture of him actually getting his hair cut...that's what I really wanted. A shot of him in the barber chair. Ah those beautiful blue eyes. He will in no doubt break hearts some day!

March 13th

So lately Drew has been into playing computer games. His current favorites are deer hunting ( yes really, don't know where he gets it) and noggin.com He really loves to be outdoors and this winter is really dragging on!!!! Is he cute or what?

March 12th

And you guys thought I would run out of things to take pictures of didn't you? Well it is our year in pics so this is the dinner of choice these days. This happens to be one of Drew's favorites. Very simple. An easy box of kraft mac & cheese, ground beef mixed into the mac & cheese and some green beans for a little nutrition!!! We need quick and easy during the week, and it doesn't get much easier than this!!

March 11th

This is my fireplace downstairs. As you can see it looks rather junky...I have never been able to really decorate it. And honestly we never spend a great deal of time here either. This is about to be a project of mine--cause this is one of my favorite rooms in my house!!!

March 10th

This little boy was bound and determined to climb this tree. And with just a little help from his dad he managed. Now he can do it unassisted. I am not sure if that is a good thing or not!!!

March 9th

Can you believe this???
Check out how red and swollen her fingers were in this one, her toes looked the same way. Sorry for the bad photo but you get the idea right?
We were at the doctor again today seeing our regular pediatrician Dr. Reagan. I think she had had enough, oh and she was so miserable with all the itching!!!

March 8th

Oh my do you see them?
This was right after we got home from the E.R. You see apparently little Miss A is allergic to amoxicillin. Thank god for benadryl today. It has been a life-saver for all of us :-)

March 7th

Ahhh what are these tiny red bumps you see? That is a great question. At first we thought they were chicken-pox....Trust me when I say that was not the case. You will see very shortly!

March 6th

Is this pitiful or what????? This is my dog's usual spot for the evening. I have to chase him off each night to get my spot!

March 5th

We took advantage of the slight increase in temperature and ended up outdoors this evening. Here are the boys peering over the water meter hole in the backyard. Not sure what is so interesting about that!

March 4th

Door Knob-1...........Hubbie-0
This completely cracked me up. My hubby the handyman was trying to put a new knob on the bathroom door. I know how pretty the mismatched look is, but. He was having a hard time to get the old one off as you can clearly see above. I was too busy laughing to be any help!!

March 3rd...

A little artist in the making. I took the day off work today for a job interview and to take Drew to the dentist. Here is how we passed some time in the afternoon!

March 2nd

So just a random shot of another room in our house. This obviously is the laundry room. And looks like it was pretty caught up too!!!

March 1st.

Today we went here.
Cause little A is still sick. It turns out she was working on an ear infection-not to mention strep throat. Ahhh when will winter be over?????
