Getting set up!

Here is are basement getting set up for the play area. I am so excited to have this extra space where I can dump all the toys. Plus I can do a little preschool down here!


There was an air show going on, and I tried to take a picture of the cool jets flying over our backyard.

The Salmon update.........

Yeah, I am so excited to be out of our tiny apartment and into what we call a house. We are happy to report that we are settled and most boxes are unpacked. Hopefully this home will be ours to rent for the next four years of our lives. More pics will be posted once I actually decorate inside.


Cali has been just growing more and more each day. She listens to her mother some of the time, but has gotten a lot better now that she understands more and now that I can understand what she is trying to tell me more. She loves to play with Isaac, more than I would like because she tends to smother him, but today it was sooo cute to see Isaac cracking up when Cali was dancing around the room. She loves to help her mom clean around the house and loves her new bed. Potty training is coming next and I am not sure I am quite ready for that one. Any suggestions?

Isaac had his six month check up and is a healthy 20 pounder who has recently gotten two bottom teeth within a week. They just popped right in and Isaac didn't seem to mind at all. It was amazing. He is quite a good little squirt and is now sleeping through most of the night with an actual bed time! Yes! Can I say halelujah!

Fourth of July Fun!

More fun pics of AZ!

Cali could not get enough of playing were her cousins!

Having fun in AZ!

My sister in-law, Taryn, had a beautiful wedding on Saturday and Cali had a blast playing with her cousins!

Spring is here!

It has been too much fun this week spending time outside since the weather has been beautiful!!!




Isaac had rice cereal for the first time, and this was his reaction!

Isaac's Dr. appointment

On Monday, Isaac had his four month Doctor appt. and was healthy and well. He weighed 17 pounds, which is how much Cali weighed at 8months old. Yes, he's rolls and all! I love him so much, even though he still does not sleep through the night. He laughs all the time and smiles a ton every day.

My Camera's Back!

My Birthday!

Great Morning!

Well, I am sorry there haven't been any new pictures lately, my camera had been left in AZ, but there will be pictures coming soon when I go back to AZ again in May! YEAH! But, I did want to post my wonderful morning filled with fun. Yes, Cali had pooped in the bath and was standing up saying, "EWWW mommy". So, I went to clean out the bathtub with Comet, when Isaac started crying, so I set the comet down, forgetting that Cali can reach just about anything these days, and when I came back, Cali had decided to help clean and had poured Comet all over the bathroom. It was quite the morning. Aren't kids the best!

Whip cream!

Cali discovered whip cream and stole the tupperware.

Isaac has been such a happy boy lately with all his smiles and even some laughing that I just adore!
