Flash back

There where a ton of women last night that where pregnant and it made me think about then the kids where first born.  I thought I would share a couple of photos from the first couple days of their life's:



We have little baby yes?  But cute yes????

If you live in the area have fun shoveling (maybe we will have a snow day on Wen:).

Mamma Mia ROCKED!!!!

Just got back from Mamma Mia and man it was great!!!

I laughed so much and of course I cried too.... if you have a little girl you know when, if you do not then listen to this and just picture me crying. BTW I decided that Ada does not need to go to 4K next year maybe I will home school her.  (just kidding..... mostly).

Well I should go off to bed I am sure that tomorrow will come faster then I want it to.

Snow snow snow that is what our next couple of days looks like.... hummmm maybe Elijah will have a snow day tomorrow and I will not have to get up to help him......(or most likely Mark will just get up and help him and I will stay in bed:)

Good night.

Meryl Streep ROCKS Mamma Mia

One of my friends and I are going to see Mamma Mia this weekend and I can hardly wait.  I have been playing a lot of Abba to prepare for it.  I know that many of you will hiss when I say this, but I am not sure that it can live up to this.  This is my favorite scene from the movie.  GO Meryl!!!!

Ok this is the last blog post today... promise.... I think:)  The kids are outside making forts (after they made snack and helped unload the dishwasher.... right now you are all thinking I rock at this mom thing right;)

Some cool places on the web.

Ada all ready for the snow.  (very purple for my pink girl right?????  We got them for free and she did not have a say it it;)

Anyway here are a small group of stuff from the web that I love:

This made me laugh sooooo hard!

I saw this over on A CUP OF JO (she always has fun stuff to look at) (love what you can do then babies are that small.

These two make me smile/cry/laugh so sweet! (how does he whistle like that????)

I got this for Christmas and I LOVE IT (thanks Mom and Dad).

This book is going to make me live forever just so I can make all the quilts in it before I die.

Well I gotta go now as I have been asked 4 times by the 4 kids in the house for a snack.  Maybe I should give them one before they burn the house down;)

Have a nice day.

Oh and one more... not sure how they made it look so fake and real at the same time.

pinewood derby car





He came in first in his class and 5th overall.  I think he did a GREAT job, and he already has ideas for next year.

Oh my @#$ that is BIG

So before Christmas I asked Ada what she wanted for Christmas.  We sat down on the computer and made a list. One of the things she wanted was a doll house and my folks thought that would be fun to get for her.  Mom and I looked at some and then she picked this one out.  In the photo there where kids standing in front of it and I thought that is not that big, but it will be fun and big to her.  Well the kids in the photo must be monster kids (or really they where just a lot bigger (and older) then my tiny little kids).  So here it is:


Not to big right?  Well her it is with my little girl:



See that top floor???? Neither of my kids can reach that level( great place to put stuff to keep away from them;).  But I will say that she LOVES IT!!!!  She loves playing... and I do also.

Steamy Kitchen



I got a e-mail from a friend yesterday with a recipe for this no knead bread and I thought no way I could make a bread that looked like that and was that easy!!!!!  Well that is my bread in the photo!!!! Ada and I just had it for lunch with butter ..... yummy  and EASY!!!!!!  The recipe is from the Steamy Kitchen and she makes some fun looking stuff (and she is FUNNY... great combo for a blogger!) Wish you all where here to try it, but then it would be all gone so maybe I do not wish that:)

You can have your bread and eat it too.
