A little help please

Oh how I wish someone would come decorate my house for me. I am so slow! I have a wooden plank hung on the wall that has been taunting me for 3 months. It has been painted, but I am waiting for just the right phrase to put into vinyl and apply to it. Three months, doesn't that seem like a ridiculously long time? Yesterday I decided to use the YW/YM theme for the year---it is awesome! But now I have to decide on font. So at the rate I am going I should have my house decorated just how I like, in about 10 years. So who's gonna help me, anyone? PLEASE!

Holy Cow!!!!

Is time traveling at the speed of light now or what? So we are panicking that our Azure-girl will be starting kindergarten in 7 months. Kenyon's concern was that we can't spontaneously go on vacation whenever we want. I am more concerned with her being out of my sight and care for 4 hours, 5 days a week. Most of the schools here have gone to all day kindergarten, but our sensible little country school has remained half-day. I am pretty sure that if her school was not sensible, I would be doing home school. Let's talk about the good things that will come out of this. PLEASE write and tell me what these are so that I may add them.

summer & 2 kids= 2 x's the fun

Summer has come and before I blink I am sure it will be over. We've been having lots of fun with our garden. Hopefully we'll get a good harvest... if the deer can continue to resist our oh-so beautiful and tasty veggies. Last year I tried to keep them out with a wall of thistles-- didn't work, so this year we are trying a fence. So far so good! Azure and Ethan are getting bigger and smarter too. Azure turned 4 in May and told me that she knows everything...Can't believe that has started already...thought it was a teenage thing. Fun times ahead!! Ethan doesn't really move around yet. He's probably figured out that sister is more than willing to tote him around. I left the room for a minute and when I returned Ethan had been moved from his bouncer chair to the floor. No big deal right? WRONG! This took place in the living room where we have a slate floor. I about had a heart attack, but learned parental supervision is a MUST for the kids to survive. Don't forget to look at the pics of my 2 cuties. And please remember that Azure likes to pick her own outfits, as well as fix her own hair.

freedom of expression

Azure has been going through this "it's my choice" phase. So for about a week her "choice" was to wear underwear for a hat. Don't worry we didn't leave the house and they were clean. She is definitely her own person and we love her for it.

New Baby

Wow I am so behind! Ethan was born January 18th @ 11:25 p.m. He was a little guy @ 6# 15oz. He is much bigger now. We love having him in our family. So far we have been blessed with very mellow babies. Azure has become quite the drama-queen, however. Maybe Ethan will remain calm throughout life, cuz really, Azure creates about all of the drama we can handle. More updates to come.
