Oh Mr Sun???

I'm getting spoiled by this gorgeous Oregon weather! Today we woke up and Colton, who always opens up the curtains for me, says "Mom, where is Mr. Sun?". LOL We are both hoping that the clouds burn off and the sun shines this afternoon. He's been spending lots of time in his sand and water table outside. Which still only has water...no sand.
We've had a busy week so far. Yesterday we went to story time and then headed over to the Science Museum in Eugene. That was pretty neat. There was a big YMCA group there so it was hard for Colton to play with the exhibits so next time we go I'll call ahead to make sure it's not too busy. And after that we went to WIC and got some Farmer's Market vouchers. They gave us $40 worth so we can get fruits and vegis grown locally here in Oregon. Which is wonderful since I've only been buying local produce anyhow!

Poor little Ellyana is having a rough week. She's getting a molar and is really whinny and fussy. See....

And I did a LO of her! My mom used to (still does actually!) tell me "it sucks being 12...or 13...or 14....and so on!". And that's what these photos said to me.
It's hard being one!

And one of my monkey boy!Speaking of my monkey boy, he has been doing sooooo well with the potty training! I'm so very proud of him. He had one small accident the other day and nothing since. He tells me when he needs to go and everything! Such a big boy!!!

Well, I better go. We are meeting some friends at the mall today and need to get ready. Have a wonderful day!

After 3 months of silence

I think I'll post!!! I've been so crazy busy and honestly have dreaded updating this thing. Just so hard when I get so far behind but I'm ready to give it another shot!

So a really quick update on our little family. Andrew got a job at the 4x4 design shop as a welder/fabricator. He loves it! But the gas was killing us so we decided to move closer to his job. We are now living in a nice little Duplex. About 1/2 mile from a park and really close to Andrew's job. We are very happy. Other than that we are just chugging along! The kids are getting bigger and are best friends.

Here are some recent photos of my two cuties.

With "crazy hair" as Colton calls it!

Best buds!
Now hopefully I can keep this updated!!!!!
