Baby Boo.. Thats what I'm calling her now.. she's gone from "Star vorce/ star wars" to "Annika" to "Colby" to " Shelby" to "Diamond ruby... yadda yadda" .. You all now how we are with names..

with "Semanee Jade" and "Ella Shay"  were in a quandry over the new little girls name.  Suggestions are welcome.. lol.. These ultrasounds were taken today.. yes we are still having "ONE" baby "GIRL"  not a boy.. not twins. not twin boys.. as the many chart errors from the OBG have dictated.. confusing staff and ourselves at times.. lol.. but looks like this little one will inherit the "lips" as well.. and from the looks of that foot. she'll be Semanee sized.. poor christine .. that exit strategy is going to be painful.. ;)

Ellashay didn't really want to play in the snow.. so much as stuff her face with it.. lol!
Semanee.. the princess of the snow!.. always able to strike a pose!
Semanee didn't really want us to shoot this picture until she had made a Mrs's snowman.. problem was.. there wasn't much snow left at the cabin.. we told her we could commence with Mrs's snowman the next day... (as it was supposed to snow all night).. well.. it ended up raining all night long.. and washed poor mister snowman away. ;(...

Star vorse glam shot

Well.. As most of you know.. my little ones inherited the lips that make em look like lil Angelina Jolies.. anyhoo.. you can see.. a nose and two full lips by that little hand popping up.. and of course daddys belly. .lol.. what a cutie


For those of you who love the 3-D images.. here she is.. no her name will not be Star Vorce.. but thats what Semanee calls her.. so until we have a better one.. we'll refer to her that way. I had to turn this one around a few times to make out the picture.. then I saw it.. the nose and lips.. my little Shar pe' .. ;)

how to extract many thorns from a hand.. wax. lol

K.. so Semanee.. playing with her little friend Logan across the street saw what she thought were flowers on a cactus. which turned out to be little yellow thorns. After trying to pick them out one by one was entirely too tedious.. tried duct tape first.. lol didn't work so well.. then thought of Christines eyebrow wax.. (hey if it will pull out hair it should pull outt little yellow thorns right?) so heated applied and pulled and sure enough.. they all came out. her fingers are now hair free as well. lol

This years haunt

This is our haunt this year.. it really wasn't very scary compared to years prior but was still alot of fun. It always gives me a kick to hear a little shrill of surprise. The fogger worked amazingly well with the FroggysFog (professional grade. well enjoy the walk through.

Semanee and Ellashay all decked out in their trick-R-treat costumes. Semanee as a beautiful Cinderella and Ellashay as Biker baby..even in a pink jacket with a princess bucket people still said she was a cute baby boy.. can you believe it.

Funny Things Kids Say.....

I just wanted to share some of Semanees most resent crack ups!!! Last Sunday was our primary presentation, semanee's first. We worked hard all week memorizing her part. Of course they had someone up there to help if the kids needed it. So Sem steps up to do her part she gets the first 3 words out and then the helper starts to help her and she turns to her and says " I can do it myself". She started over and sure enough she did it all by herself!!!!
Then a week or so ago a little friend of hers, Ty was over and as he was leaving he ran over to say good bye and she sticks her hand up to stop him and says "I can only hug, I'm not age yet, I can't kiss you." Lets hope that stick for another 12 years!!!!
We also asked Semanee if she wanted to sleep up in her bedroom yesterday and she said "no, I'm only 4, when I'm 10 I'll sleep up there". Hopefully that is not the case. She has gotten so she will go upstairs without anyone again......so we are making progress!
Ella is still obsessed with the Shamu dance and chant and will randomly come out with it at the supper table or in the car. She is finally getting a 3rd tooth on the bottom, but still looking sweet as ever.
