Spring at the Hee Haw Farms

Jack really loves goats:) The little black one has been named 'Hair Bear'

The goats and sheep all really thought Annabelle was the coolest kid there (because she was sleeping) The goat started licking her toes:)

Jack loves tractors, he really wants one of these:) Annabelle is not a farm girl - she was not impressed by any of it, maybe next year?

The hayride

Annabelle liked the corn, she thought it was snack time

Sand was o.k. with her, too

Jack really wanted to share the goats with Annabelle

Get these animals away from me! (I don't understand why she didn't like them)

Hair Bear fell asleep in Jack's lap, it was so cute! He was literally in heaven

7 Months

7 months already! And getting more and more mobile by the moment. She isn't exactly crawling yet, not much, just 3 steps here and there, but pulling herself up, rolling around, and scooting front and backwards, she can cover the whole room:)

She loves to chatter, mostly saying 'ada' and 'da-da' and keeps trying to steal Jack's food:) She also LOVES to eat paper!

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

My kids love looking, laughing into, and talking to the mirror. Yesterday Jack figured out that if you halfway close the bathroom vanity then he can see lots of Jacks!

It started out with: 'Mommy, look at all those Jack's!' then went on to things like those Jack's are all my friends, come play with me, (my favorite)- Jack Attack!

It went on for a good half hour and was awesome!

My Painter

We love painting at our house! So every rainy-snowy day we take out our paint clothes and play with the paints. Here is Jack's latest masterpiece

Deep concentration and Ta-Da! The finished painting!

Happy Birthday to Me!

I had such a wonderful birthday! Thank you everyone who made it so special!

Last year Ken surprised me with Jacob (Twilight) at work, this year the whole gang had fun as well, we went 'ice-fishing' Ken taught me how to use the fishing pole and I 'caught' 4 trout for dinner, grapefruit and cookies:) then we had cake- thanks Karen and Ken for making it so fun!

Mardi Gras

Our Mardi Gras party full with masks, balloons, games and costumes

6 Months

My dolly is 6 months already!

starring an awesome 17.5 lbs (80%)

26.5" (82%)

and 18% head:)

For 6 months Annabelle learned how to pull herself up! She now just wants to stand all the time and works on it every chance she gets. She also seems just days away from crawling, I love my little speedsters!
