A quick hello

I am so tired and so busy, but wanted to share the first of many hockey days with Jameson and Connor! They had a blast and can't wait to do it some more...


Although totally worn out by the end of an hour long practice, they we still a bundle of energy by the time we got home! hockey is fun fun fun!

*Wordless Wednesday*

a little of this and a little of that

I just can't accept it, my baby is going to crawl. I can't explain it, it's that feeling in your tummy when you crawling up to the top of a roller coaster and your almost to the very top of that first drop... It's exciting, it's scary, it's a tummy tilting experience.

Well... that is how I feel about Karley crawling... she's not even 6 months old and she is going to crawl ANY DAY. None of my other kids crawled by the time they were 6 months. To me, she'll be gone.... wont want me to cuddle and hold her- she'll be off seeking out the new land some new territory. Anyway, she's going to crawl ANY moment... I'll keep ya posted on the cutie pie and her new adventures! And My tears.... as my baby takes another first step of many.
She is also EATING. How wierd... and I don't remember it being this difficult with my other kids. She doesn't really care for baby food- in face any time we offer it she spits it back at us, ALL over us! But she loves solid stuff she can bite onto... like the other night she snatched a pizza crust out of my hands and gummed it for almost an hour before I decided it was unsafe anymore. Hello... another sign that my life is about to change. And that my baby is growing up right before my eyes. :( Why can't they just stay little?
And then I realize that before long she's going to look like her older brother Mason, except instead of losing teeth she's going to be getting them ANYDAY! I can feel it right under the gum.

So, Mr. Mason finally lost is 2nd tooth- and he's almost 8:) He was very excited and would you believe the tooth fairy in Canada paid him $10.... Man that American tooth fairy is a cheap skate- I used to get quarters- NOT BILLS- what gives???
And I'm still at it with the Drama Queens hair... isn't it cute? I love it and loves that she lets me do it, finally after 8 years!

Learning by Blogging

So, I've learned that there is a reason behind my blogging... I'm learning new hair do's to do on my child who is IMPOSSIBLE to do hair on! And by showing her the pictures from someone else's blog, She see's it and likes it and let's me do it! I love it!
This is not the best picture, you think I was holding a pie to her face or something and making her smile! The party pooper. And out of about 6 shots, to think this is the best one...
It looks SUPER cute from behind!!! I hope she keeps letting me do her hair!

Wordless Wednesday

It was a good day

It was a good day... full of laughter and love, smiles and grins, family and friends. It was a celebration for a baby's 1st birthday our family had an amazing time hanging out in the park on such a beautiful day! I love days like this... time with family.... love that grows and grows.

Never forgetting

I'll never forget September 11, 2001 and all the fear it brought into my life. I'll never forget the people who died, the people who surrvived, and the many heros that were made. I'll never forget....
