Bunny goes hop hop hop


Real quickly. I wanted to show you how I was showing Noelle why we change diapers. I used the "bunny goes hop hop hop" as an example. You may find that the "bunny goes hop hop hop" needs a size 5 diaper rather than a 4. Fat.

No point of crying over lost hair.



So I did it. I was pushed over the edge by my lovely sister-in-law Nicole into deciding to cut Noelle's bangs. It was so hard to do. I've wanted to do it for it so long, or at least something, because I can't do her hair everyday. It's just too hard. So I finally did it. I cried when the first cut was made and James fell over crying from laughing so hard. It was so bad. I did my best to fix it the best I could. I hope it looks semi-decent until it grows a bit, so I can get it re-cut. My daughter's first hair cut, and I cried like a baby. It's so bad!!! Don't humor me...I know it's bad...my poor baby. She looks as if she has a mullet.

Food with sticks

If you know our Noelle at all, you know she likes sticks. I would say the food on it, but typically that's not true. The only exception is an ice cream bar that her grandparents give her on occasion. (Or every time we're there *Wink*Wink*) I just wanted to share a photo of Noelle's love of sticks. Yummy! Oh by the way, for all of you who know...I FINALLY met my neighbor! She had a baby so I had an excuse to bring her something and meet them. Come to find out, she was my visiting teacher. What a slacker! Ha ha! It was nice to finally meet the family that has been living next to us for a year and a half now. Props for me!! Yea!!

Free Ikea Advertising








I know, I know, I'm a slacker. I have been distracted and stressed to a degree I've never known before. But I thought I would at least add some pictures and some updates. These pictures are from today. We bought some butcher paper for Noelle and inner artistic tendencies. (At least, I think so) We taped the paper to the floor and let her go wild. Unfortunately, she was less interested in drawing as she was in basically everything else. I added a photo of the final drawing, which obviously includes some of my own stick figure-esque drawings for the upcoming holiday. Also, I've included some photos of Noelle's room. As some of you might know, she didn't have her own room up until a couple of months ago. It's finally done and this is what it looks like, at least for now. Just consider this your Ikea catalog. Although the "Love Sac" is from my previous life as swinging single. She has since inherited it. It's ok, they're overrated anyway. If you haven't noticed, the room has a common theme, "bugs". I wish I could show you the sign for it. Noelle tries to do it, but is too uncoordinated. The sign is your thumb on your nose with the two fingers standing up (as if they were antennae) and then you extending and then clenching your pointer and middle finger a couple of times. I can't think of a better way to explain than that. Hopefully you can get a visual. Other than the usual, nothing is really going on in our lives. Sometimes I wish I had more to talk than Noelle, James and my family, but my world revolves around them.
