Welcome Grandma!


As we all know, the first bit on blogger can be kinda... well ... frustrating. This post is dedicated to Grandma for joining us. We so totally do this for you! We love and miss you always! You're the best!

My Messy Lauren




O.k. what a month it has already been for the messes. I guess it means she is just discovering (and I haven't toddler proofed yet). Well, for this memory we have a light touch of raspberry colored nail polish (no not blood, grandma :) with a hint of saliva. Yes, it looks like blood hu? Can you imagine what I was thinking when she came walking in and it was all over her hand and mouth? I was actually very thankful it was fingernail polish. It came out fairly well but I'll just chalk this one up on our account of messiness this month. p.s. Lauren looks really funny in this picture.

Update

For those who have wondered... "What is Marie up to? She hasn't posted in a while." Well here are a few things...

















Let us Start with our Trip to DC to visit Ben, Liz, and the Temple.



My what a big hat you have on Dave. We had so much fun and Thank you Liz and Ben!!! for babysitting and letting us have a sleepover at the age of 25.





Next,


Lauren Found a candle we took off the warmer hours earlier. Yep, it was still warm and plenty of fun for her little fingers. I am motivated by blogger to take pictures of things. I know funny hu? The wax came out of everything though. She couldn't have picked out a better candle. (sorry forgot to rotate the picture of the hair)



Like usual, we are taking trips to the park, even if it's bitter outside. Lauren is into the "big kid" swings. Proud as a peacock.
Later that week we had the opportunity to have a little slumber party with Sophia. She was so amazingly good for her first time overnight from mom and dad and big sisters ava and noel. Lauren was just exstatic to have her and thought she was her best friend. Until they both wanted the same toys of course. I put this picture because Sophia just loved Dave, she was always just grinning ear to ear at him. It was cute.



Good Morning Mommy! Yes, I know this is disgusting, but I just had to post it. I know Lara will have a good laugh at it. I think you other mom's will too. I'm very proud to say she was actually pretty clean about it. When I came in, she looked like she had just been trying to get her diaper off and some of the poo got on her leg so she tried to brush if off and it just kinda kept getting more and more dirty as things got touched. She felt bad though. Obviously not bad enough though because she tried the same thing this morning only there wasn't any poo outside the diaper and it was just pee on the sheets.



Hi Grandpa!






Yesterday we had a picknicke on our lawn. It was lots of fun, minus the neighbor's dog poop we found part way through the picknick. This isn't a good picture but it was the only one.

Take this test!
You're green, the color of growth and vigor. Good-hearted and giving, you have a knack for finding and bringing out the best in people. Green is the most down-to-earth color in the spectrum — reliable and trustworthy. People know they can count on you to be around in times of need, since your concern for people is genuine and sincere. You take pride in being a good friend. For you, success is measured in terms of personal achievement and growth, not by status or position. Rare as emeralds, greens are wonderful, natural people. It truly is your color!
