The Girls

Here's some random pictures of Elizabeth and Sydney.
Yes, even through our "sick times" we manage to get some good days!

Sick Again

Here I am sick AGAIN.
Sometimes I wonder if it's worth it to work full time at a school just to have insurance and have Elizabeth and Sydney go to pre-school if we're just going to be sick all the time and not be able to even go to school! It's a vicious cycle and it's really getting old!
Parents need to keep their kids home if they have any kind of symptom.
Well, all I can say is, it's almost March and warmer weather should hopefully help me.
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired!

The Oscars!!

Yay the Oscars! I've always been SO excited about this night. This is the first year in a long time that I havn't seen anything. Yep, having 2 kids will do that.
Anyway, I love my celebrities!
Johnny Depp!

Romney (root) Beer

I thought this was pretty funny!

Our Phoenix Trip

There's a lot of pictures on this slideshow, so stick around and see them all! We went to Phoenix on February 8 through the 11. The girls did GREAT on the plane both ways! So proud of them! It was Mark's Grandparent's 65th wedding anniversary. We were excited for everyone to meet Sydney and see Elizabeth again. The girls only have 1 cousin and it was fun for them to all see eachother. Mark has 2 cousins who are pretty much the same age as the girls and so with the 4 of them together, it was pretty wild! They had fun.
It was great to see Mark's mom and everyone on her side of the family, too!

8 years!

(I had to take a picture of my picture! All you youngins out there who got married with your digital camera...)
Today is our 8th anniversary!
I love you, Markie!
Thanks for 12 years of being together and 8 years of being my husband.
Thanks for our 2 beautiful daughters.

11 months!

Sydney is 11 months today!
She continues to be a joy in our lives.
Constant learning and busy, busy, busy!
She is a very happy baby.
She can say "da-da" "ma-ma" "ba-ba"
"T" sounds, "Itty" (for kitty)
Crawling and walking while holding onto things are her favorites.
She loves to eat!
She's starting out on more solid foods like Cheerios and little baby crackers.
Very exciting!
Sydney Belle, we love you so much!
Happy 11 months!

Happy February

Fun Saturday

It was a fun night last night. We went out with my cousin, Rachelle and her husband, Dave.
We met at McGrath's and just chatted and ate and had a great old time!
My mom came over to our house to watch the girls. Dad and Grandpa came over with dinner for them. They had fun!
After our dinner, we went and saw The Bucket List. It was hillarious. Sad, but funny, too. Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman can make anything funny and worth watching. They're such great actors.
Rachelle and Dave are so cute and it was good to see them and be able to keep in touch.
It was a fun Saturday night and I hope we get to go out with them again soon.
