At the Friday Market - the best picture I could get (Daisy wouldn't cooperate)

I caught Daisy making out with Curious George

The King of Kong


My brother was bothering me forever to watch this documentary. He finally convinced me - and he was SO right! It is awesome. I know it looks crazy, but go rent it - you won't be sorry, I promise!

A Few of My Favorite Things...

A friend of mine did a blog with some of her favorite things, and I thought it was so fun... so I thought I'd share a few of mine -




1. Babylegs
They are adorable little legwarmers in every color and pattern you can imagine. They are perfect for throwing on when your baby is in a cute little dress but it starts to get cold outside. Or I put them on Daisy under her pants if we go for a walk because her little pant legs always hike up and part of her legs get cold. I love the story behind them too - A stay-at-home mom invented them! I love these soooo much I want them in every color.





2. House, M.D.
This is the BEST show on T.V. - Kevin and I love it! I usually hate medical dramas (E.R. is the worst!) This is a can't miss. I have certain sisters who refuse to watch this show , and they are seriously missing out.





3. Chutney
Ok, don't laugh at this one. Maybe everyone already knows about this but it's a recent discovery of mine. It's sort of an Indian relish, I guess. It's just the right combination of sweet and spicy and it goes great on everything!





4. Josh Ritter
Really great singer/songwriter. Traditional, kind of folk music I guess. I really like him



That's all for now because it's getting late. I'd love to see everyone else's favorites!

I was at the park the other day with one of my friends and she got this cute picture of Daisy in the swing. I found a picture of Andy at the same age - so I thought it would be fun to put them side by side. I think they look nothing alike! Both adorable though, if you ask me!!

Long Time Gone

























































I doubt anyone checks this blog anymore because I never update! I've been meaning to - but I have been seriously busy! I hate moving! But I love my new house. We are finally in. Aside from the exterior painting (which will have to wait until spring) - the house is finally, finally finished. I didn't believe the day would ever come. We are loving it so far - but it's quite a task to get everything unpacked. The garage is still compeltely full of stuff but I think we have lost all motivation for a week or so. I'll get to it eventually. Aside from that, not much has been going on - which is why I never update. I don't want to bore people to death. But I love checking everyone else's blogs - it's so fun to get updated on people's lives and see pictures. Daisy is growing so fast - I can't believe she's almost nine months. She's been crawling since January and is now walking around all of the furniture. And the best of all , she is finally, FINALLY sleeping in her own crib! And sleeping through the night! (Most of the time...) Andy just wants to be outside all of the time. He wants to go ride bikes, walking, whatever. Unfortunately , although we've had some sunny days it's still pretty cold here. And he's sick today, which never happens, so I think we're going to have to wait for some warmer weather. He got a brand new game the other day - Go Fish. He loves it. He makes us play it all the time. He doesn't understand the rules 100%, but he is so cute playing it I just love it. He is obsessed with anything to do with transportation. Motorcycles, snowmobiles, bikes, 4-wheelers, trucks, trains... you name it. But his latest obsession is airplanes. He flies around the house all day with his arms out and his motor running. Yesterday morning I asked him "Are you an airplane today Andy?" And he just looked at me and said "All the time I am!" - Like I should just assume. My dad brought him back a toy bi-plane from their trip to Washington D.C. and now he's learning about all of the different types of planes. He even watches some old show called Sky King with my dad. It's not a cartoon or anything.. it just has airplanes in it.
Well I'm going to attempt to post a few pics now... they never go where I want them to, but here goes. I hope someone (or two!) leaves me a comment so I know if anyone even reads this darn thing or not.
