A Shout Out!!

I just wanted to do a congrats post for my twin sis & Sterling becoming parents!! Her and Sterling do some good work:)This is Sailor Ann Morris, isn't she adorable? I think she looks a lot like Kendra. It is so exciting that Kendra has this beautiful little girl. I am very excited to be having another girl cause Kendra had one. Also I bought Sailor an outfit to match my baby girl...cause they have to be twins in just one picture. Kendra, I am so glad she is here, and that your labor is over with. Way to be strong the whole way through!! I love you and can't wait to meet your "minnie me".

Easter & Evelyn:)

The Two P's....

Since Sat. Evelyn has 2 favorite new things. Her P-P-P-Potty (Evelyn says my p-p-p-potty)and her Pony. She got the pony for Easter. The p-p-p-potty was bought sat. at walmart. I was reading in a book about some signs that some kids might show they are ready to be potty trained. Trent and I thought it would be a good idea to get her used to the idea of a p-p-p-potty. I don't know how ready she really is...but I think she is off to a great start. Saturday night she didn't want to get off of it. It is her new throne so to speak. And she just adores it. Carries it all over the house, running around half naked sitting on her p-p-p-potty. Well, Easter Sunday she was sitting on it in the bathroom and said mom potty. I looked down and sure enough she had gone potty after having it for only two days. Then I was doing her hair and she said "mommy potty", I asked if she needed to go and she said uh huh. So I put her on the potty again. She was killing brain cells trying to push some out...ha ha. Then she stood up by her potty and went on the bathroom floor next to her potty. So that is her progress so far. We like that she is getting used to the idea of using a potty. However i am sure she will prefer to be naked from now on. Which is a little more work with accidents and all. I am sure it will be a while before she is officially potty trained. Way to be a big girl Evelyn...we love you.

WHAT THE.....EVELYN!!

A FEW THINGS THAT PROVE EVELYN IS ALMOST TWO:
1)She took off her diaper right before her bath...(while I was getting things ready) went into her closet and left mommy a great surprise. Yep...had two great poops for me to clean up. The funny thing is she did it and then came and got me and pointed to them. She usually goes into her closet closes the door and fills her diaper on a daily basis. At least she didn't get artistic with it right?? ha ha Probably won't be long before she does.
2)I was putting her down for her nap today and I asked for a hug. She gave me the best hug she has in a long time. Layed her head on my shoulder and just sat there...it was lovely until she sunk all of her teeth into my shoulder and bit me. Ouch..mommy wasn't happy. It really ruined the moment too.
3)Can throw some pretty good fits on a regular basis. However has become a lot better once we explain whats going on and why she can't have what she wants. Trent is great at calming her down. I think its great when you become parents both of you are better or can get through with different ways. That's why it works cause we balance each other out.
4)She used to be the one getting hit on the head and pushed around for toys in nursery and on play dates, but now she puts up a fight back. She isn't horrible at this, some days are worse than others. I've decided she loves to play with girls and not so much boys. The other day I was at my friend Julie's house and she has a little boy Evelyn's age Boston. Well, he would just stare at her and stare and she would walk right up to him and smack him in the face...over and over. It was kinda funny. Watch out boys in the future...Evelyn doesn't like to be checked out. lol

Your Getting So Big!

These photos were taken at my sister Elliah's house, as we were honoring my Grandpa Askeroth's life. She missed her nap and you can tell she is really mellow in these photos. We definitely payed for that on the ride home. Naps are the best thing ever. But, I just look at these pics and can't believe this is my little girl Evelyn...where has my baby gone. She will be two in May! So hard to believe, it really does go too fast.

We Finally Caved!!

So...this is kinda dumb to post about. But, Trent and I finally just gave in and both signed up for facebook profiles today. After years of holding off and not. I guess we liked being different. Until we felt a little left out and wanted to know more about what people from our graduating class were up to. I want it more for exposure to my photography. So, we are now facebookers:) FYI I don't plan to spend a lot of time on there...so I don't want anyone to get their feelings hurt when I don't respond or anything. I already spend too much time on the computer as it is.
