As the world turns...

....and my kids are growing up. Olivia lost her first tooth today! She is very excited. The tooth fairy will need to come visit tonight. Speaking of losing things, my camera has disappeared. I will try to load the picture from my phone - but don't hold your breath.This is what happens when there are very few balls in the ball bin at the grocery store and Mommy goes to get milk. I turned around and there was my daughter, inside the ball bin saying "ball-ball!"This is Mia at Max's first birthday party. She kept tattling when Max would get in his little push car because she wanted to be in the push car all day. Then she ate some twigs and chased some dogs. 'Cause that's what Mia does. :-)

New Floors...

Hi Guys! I missed you! How are you? We are doing well. Mia is growing, slowly. :-) Also, we are waiting for more teeth - she's had 6 for almost a year now. Olivia is almost 6 - at the end of the month! I can't believe how the time has flown!!!
We are working to update the house and have laid new flooring in the dining room. This goes nicely with the green paint. Check out some pictures and welcome back to bloggerdom.


Did you notice? It's baseball season! Konerko leads the leagues in homeruns right now.

It's almost March....

You know, it strikes me over and over how quickly my little girls are growing up. Olivia is almost 6 and will start first grad in the fall. I am amazed by how fast she grew up. Mia is 17 months old and likes to order us around. She is feisty, and quick. I am so in awe of everything that she is learning to do and how quikly she does it.



This is Mia in the car. She is watching a movie. She is so entranced that she has no idea that we snapped this picture. Also, as you may notice, both of my children have inherited the mouth-open profile from their daddy.

Olivia felt that her giraffe needed a more professional touch and gave him a tie.Olivia and Mia working on making daddy pretty.It took a LOT of work.The finished product.The girls sitting on top of Tony, hugging it out.Mia crazy hair.Mia playing in the laundry bin. She LOVES this.This morning, Mia came to me with her hat and wanted it on. I obliged.Rockin' the hat and pajamas look.Mia would pose for the camera, say cheese and then, as soon as I snapped the pic, would move out of the shot. This is an example.While it may look like Mia is telling me to empty the garbage can, she is actually pointing to her boots, which were on top of the island.After giving her the boots, she dragged them into the living room and waited for us to put them on.Mia has given up on the boots, and has decided to pose again.Awwww.....She's done with the camera and thinks it would be more fun to be upstairs. Bye-bye, Mia!
