Overflowing

Coming soon, reliable and frequent updates:)

Teasing my reliable blogging sisters with one teeny tiny post and the promise of more to come:)

1 year ago

2009-09-12T00:15:00.000-05:00

A little late posting. Georgia's first picture. Took a long, long time to change this picture out of my cellphone wallpaper!
Time.

Almost a dog

2009-09-11T23:57:00.001-05:00

Our dog for 10 days, Clara

Too bad we didn't stick with this one at Old Navy

and thankfully, the dog that tried but thankfully didn't make it near the door! haha

Broken but cheerful!

2009-09-11T23:56:00.002-05:00

Violet broke her leg this year, the day we crazily attempted to get a dog(more on that story later)

Georgia

2009-09-11T23:51:00.000-05:00

Adding herself to the silly mix:)

Violet

2009-09-11T23:46:00.001-05:00

She's starting too!

Ruby

2009-09-11T23:33:00.002-05:00

Yes, it is hard to get a picture without all the extra stuff these days:)

Abby

2009-09-11T23:25:00.000-05:00

Definitely at the stage of faces:)

Sleepover

2009-09-11T23:15:00.000-05:00

Lily and Abby

Violet

Kiaran and Ruby

Georgia
Sleeping so peacefully:)

Dress up

2009-09-11T22:51:00.002-05:00

Oh how I love this picture of Georgia! Girls had her all dressed up and she loved it.

The Caboose!

2009-03-25T09:53:00.000-05:00

Dale and I were completely blessed to receive this awesome gift, a night in the Caboose at Chico Hot Springs in Montana. We had a great time and left the kiddos with Brock and Amber. Thank you for the wonderful weekend!

Interior views

2009-03-25T08:41:00.001-05:00

Seriously, how cool is this! I'm dreaming of a room like this in my house! The floors were beautiful, but a bit too slippery. I think the floor shiner went a bit wild and would've brought the grippy bottom socks had I known how slippery it was:)

Chico bed and bath

2009-03-25T08:35:00.001-05:00

I wish we'd put one of these in our house. And the floor tiles are heated too!

This is what we woke up to the next morning!

Spring colors, anyway

2009-03-03T09:51:00.001-06:00

This little girlie is such a sweetie! You are all missing out on this sweet, fat, loud, low-voiced baby girl!

Sitting Pretty

2009-03-03T09:37:00.002-06:00

Georgia is so proud at her new sitting ability! The boppy is perfect, flat and well-used, so that she can easily scoot herself off of it when she needs a change of pace.

Wiiiiiiiii!!

2009-02-26T10:17:00.002-06:00

Ruby playing baseball on our new Christmas Wii

Thinker

2009-02-26T10:16:00.000-06:00

Hmm... Do I post this, or don't I? Do I, or don't I? See the kind of tough decisions I face these days??

Violet and her new friend

2009-02-26T10:14:00.000-06:00

Mike's Supervalue had a grand opening celebration with these dressed up people and Violet thought she'd died and went to Heaven! Thankfully, they snapped this picture of her and her favorite character so she can carry the laminated picture around with her. Frankly, I think the pig is a little scary looking!

Christmas Eve girlies

2009-02-26T09:25:00.003-06:00

Posing is still the favorite thing for these girls! I need to remember to pull out the camera more often. It sits on the shelf for too long, and a lot happens in the month you let it get dusty!

Bow Baby

2009-02-26T09:15:00.001-06:00

She's changed a lot since my last post. What a sweet, sweet baby girl she is! She is 8 months old, has 2 teeth, pulls herself around the floor commando style, and has a REALLY loud voice! Those who've heard her don't soon forgot the power behind her baby talk!

Weight of Winter

2009-02-26T09:05:00.000-06:00

I guess this is my excuse for not keeping this updated. I've been buried under winters weight. I'm digging out though. The snow hasn't melted yet, but I'm resolved to start digging. And spring is coming, Hallelujah!

Almost 6 weeks!

2008-10-07T13:45:00.002-05:00

Almost 6 weeks and just about 9 lbs! And a few small smiles trying to sneak out:)

Peace out, Dude!!

2008-10-07T13:40:00.000-05:00

The new favorite word, and pose, peace! If only they knew what it meant.....

Had to sneak in the picture:)

2008-07-29T00:07:00.000-05:00

Violet and Ruby raced into the picture:) Georgia modeling more of her cloth diapers, this time a Thirsties cover over a prefold.

Looking back

2008-07-28T20:21:00.001-05:00

And while I'm reminiscing at the difference a month makes, look at these cute pics with Georgia and her cousin Kiaran. Look at how much he loves her:)

Peaceful

2008-07-28T20:10:00.004-05:00

At one month old you are 8lbs 80z! You've gained 2lbs, and you can definitely tell:) You are always so sleepy when I change your diaper before bed, all kicked back with your arms behind your head.

Here you are at 1 day old in your little hospital bed in the same pose. And the difference 2lbs makes is apparant:)

Big butts don't lie

2008-07-28T19:05:00.003-05:00

Check out the big cloth diaper butt:)
Love the old-fashionedness of a prefold. These are awesome prefolds too, newborn diapers from www.greenmountaindiapers.com

They are good for laying on too:)

A Glimpse

2008-07-24T08:43:00.002-05:00

A little peek at my girlie:)

Abby

2008-07-22T22:01:00.000-05:00

And so I don't forget to add a picture of Abby:)

Friendly Sisters, Finally!

2008-07-22T21:54:00.004-05:00

I came across these pictures today and don't recall seeing them before. These two are the fighting two lately, so it is nice to see them looking so loving:)

Curious??

2008-07-21T20:23:00.000-05:00

Just in case you were wondering how on earth I managed to add all sorts of blog posts/pictures all while hopefully caring for my family, well I'll tell you! Abby played at a friends today, Lily was here playing with Ruby, and Violet and Georgia BOTH took a 3 hr nap! And, Lily and Ruby were crazy today and cleaned the girls room and Lily folded all the clothes in their drawers! It's crazy here today!

The former baby

2008-07-21T17:53:00.000-05:00

Violet is 2 1/2 today and looking mighty grown up with her new haircut:)

3 weeks

2008-07-21T16:07:00.000-05:00

Almost 3 weeks and really filling out:) Officially, you are 7lbs 12 oz. Notice that in all of her pictures she is sleeping! And yes, I know the blessing in this!!!

Due Today

2008-07-21T15:29:00.000-05:00

Today is your official due date, July 11th, and you are getting even chunkier. Still peaceful and loving her new swaddling blankets. They are Aden+Anais and the best baby gift ever!

6 Days Old

2008-07-21T15:25:00.001-05:00

6 days old and found her fingers:)

Love how she is sleeping in this one!

3 days Old

2008-07-21T15:25:00.000-05:00

3 days old and sleeps all the time!

Midnight modeling

2008-07-21T15:08:00.000-05:00

The hospital had fun with Georgia one night while I was sleeping:)

Bellies

2008-07-21T13:06:00.000-05:00

And here is what I looked like the morning I had her. I was 38 weeks exactly and 46(yikes!!) pounds heavier

And a few weeks priot to that!

So it begins

2008-07-21T13:02:00.000-05:00

The sister's are all bugging me(for the past year or so) to get going on my family blog. And as I'm 3 weeks postpartum, I am looking for things I can do while sitting at the computer nursing a newborn. It will be an added bonus if it keeps me busy enough to make it through the weeks of mental chaos that go hand in hand with having a baby. So I guess we will all benefit(except for my older kids if I get too out of control with the blogging, haha)

Without further ado, the fourth daughter:

Georgia Kate

Born 6/26/08

6lbs 8oz 19 in
