Looking Back

Here is a photo to compare mine with. I know it may not be the best, but it takes a while to look through all the photos I have. I hope to beable to find photos of Phil to compare with too...
So, I have decided to post a few pictures of me as a baby and compare them to my children. Sometimes I wonder if Drezden looks like me when I was her age. I do have to point out that I think she is a much cuter baby than I was!

The one above is of my twin brother and me. I think we are about 1 in this picture.

Above:This is me about 1 yr
Below: My newborn photo(I am sure you all can tell)

Kids Cleaning and Laundry Galore

Oh the joys of domestic life! I guess it's not all bad... Although, I will have to admit that I have been failing in the cleaning department... and cooking... well, it seemed like I had everything down when it was just Drezden and I, and then I decided to have another child(which I love dearly). I am still adjusting to having two children and I think I am beginning to get the hang of things again. I know this because I am finally able to keep the front room clean again. YAY!
Well, motherhood is calling... Drezden needs something, time to go ;)

Craft Fair

So, my sister in law and I are going to have a booth at a craft fair in Washington Terrace on November 22. It will be both our first time doing anything like this. We haven't yet decided what we will sale, but we have a few ideas... Like nursing covers, homemade soap, things for babies, decorative journals... I am not sure what else, but we would like to make something that is easy and inexpensive. Do you guys have any suggestions? We would love to make things that people would buy...

2 months and counting

I think he is adorable! He is getting so big. Well, not soooo big, but he is growing. He will be 2 months on the 11th. Time is just flying. I can't believe Drezden is already 17 months old. So, here's to 2 months and more.

a couple updated photos


This was taken right after she was dropped off after being at grandmas for a week... Doesn't she look tired? She must have had too much fun while she was away...















If you look to the right this was taken right after I gave her a plastic knife to use while eating... She is crazy. The hose was stuck, well we couldn't pull it out so she decided to try and help it come loose.

DRIVE IN

Last night we decided last minute to go to the Drive In Theater. I know you all may be surprised that the Drive In is still open in October, but it is and we watched Wall-E and Kung Fu Panda.
I have to admit that I had high expectations of these two films, but they were still good. One reason we wanted to go was to see how Drezden would do at the Drive In, and surprisingly she did well. Although, when the first flick was over she was ready for bed and she was a little grumpy. We were going to leave, but after Phil had put her in the car seat and the baby in his she ended up falling asleep and Phil talked me into staying for the second.
I really enjoy doing things all together and it was a nice experience to take both kiddos to the movies.
