WHEEL OF FORTUNE

I did it... i went to the wheel of fortune try-outs last weekend with my wonderful friend jessica.... it was fun, but kind of disappointing. we laughed extremely hard at the old people that were really there at the casino gambling... hilarious.. they ask the same questions as they do on the show... what do you do for a living and what are your hobbies...no brainer i think.. i mean you could even lie to make yourself look cooler.. but no... their answers were often.."nothin'" duh... you idiots.. you ahve to do something.. i watch wheel of fortune.. duh. anyways. jess and i still have a chance, they have one more audition after looking at the applications. i will keep my fingers crossed, but hilarious experience anyways.

more little ladies...

We are having a good time with the weather being 70 degrees... lovin' it. maybe i will get some park pictures soon. we go all the time, i just for some reason don't have time to take pics. hmmmm... wonder why???

Little Ladybugs

As you can see we celebrate Halloween. But these are pictures from when we went to my friend Teresa's harvest party. i will post the halloween ones later. the costumes look even better on Halloween night. heehee. i hope they don't hate me someday for making their costumes, but i mean it is much cheaper to buy felt at walmart than buying costumes for a lot more. at least on these i used matching thread.

what a weekend...

so today we started a project on elly m.'s room that we didn't know would take this long, i mean. we started a couple weeks ago taking the wallpaper down, bright dark blue mind you. only to find out that there was yet another thick layer of... you guessed it brightly painted blue wall paper. ugh.... it has been one frustrating moment after another, but jonathan and paul are working so hard on it. i help when i am not hanging out with the two cutest girls in the world. here a few pics. to show just how cute they are.

the bumbo seat..

this seat has been so much fun to use, not only for ruthie as you can see. i can tell you that if you don't have one, go to ebay and buy one for 20 bucks. they are totally worth it. so much more eye contact can be made with little ruthie... she just loves it. she can sit and watch us eat dinner and stare at elly m. all the time. it has been fun and as you can see, it makes a great hat for dads.

books books and more books.

hello everyone.. .our keyboard is fixed... 130 dollars later... eek. i guess i shouldn't complain, we never paid anything for our computer. anyways... elly m. has been pretty into books and i do hope it continues, it just seems sometimes the most inopportune time to read them to her, but that is okay too. i love that she loves books, her favorites right now are "Raindrop, plop" and "are you my mother".

her other favorite thing to do is try to put her own shoes on. it is fun to watch her, but oh my goodness she gets so frustrated with them. she is sometimes a pure reflection of my impatience. sad, but true.

love hose smiles...
