HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PRESLEY!!!

My life changed for the best two years ago... my baby girl was born. I can't believe she is two! I will post more later with some pictures...

Happy Birthday, Scooter!!! (love, Mommy)

Long time catch up

I don't know where time goes, but gesh... Spring is finally in the air and I can't be more excited. I took Presley outside today and she was in heaven!!! Running around, swinging, and just playing. It was very nice!

A little update- Presley is almost 2!!! She is growing like crazy- learning new words all the time. Last weekend, my parents and I took the three kids (Presley and my niece and nephew) to Disney on Ice. It was so fun! We had amazing seats and the kids LOVED it. I can't wait to go to DisneyWorld with them!!!

NEMO.... this is Presley's favorite

Waiting for it to start

My goofball!!!!

That's all for now-- I will get more detail up in a bit.

Been a long time

Life has been a bit crazy for us lately. January was a rough month of health, again. Presley got her tubes put in on the 19th, a week later she ended up with Croup... which lead to a doc visit then an ER visit due to her breathing. Then two days later, another doc appt... this time she has croup, a viral infection AND an ear infection... gesh... can we ever get a break??? She is doing much better now, still has a stinkin cough and one of her ear tubes is blocked from the infection, but overall she is doing much better.

I am been busy with work- moving into a new position and taking on more responsibilities. I also joined a gym and got a personal trainer. I am doing this along side a friend from work! Hoping for big results... so far so good :)

It's looking like the divorce should be final here in the next month. Things with John and I are ok. We have decent communication and Presley gets to see him atleast once a week.
We are finally starting to get outside... it has been FREEZING cold. We had 5 mornings in a row of NEGATIVE 20 or below!!! The parts of MN I HATE!!!

Just some pics of Presley...

Yes she has a "fi"-- it was the comfort during the illness.. now it's time to hide it!! :)

Her favorite... dishes with Papa

Christmas 2008

***I posted three new ones tonight***

I can't believe this Christmas has come and gone... where did the time go?! We didn't even get to put out all the decorations because we ran out of time! This year was so much fun! Presley finally got into opening the presents and getting excited about it. She left all the gifts alone. She did want to open them a few times, but did well with waiting.

Santa came... he brought her a Dora doll, a shopping cart and a Elmo purse...

Yes- I got her a doctor kit... want her to think BIG now!!!! HA HA

Hope you all had a WONDERFUL Christmas with your loved ones!

Iowa Christmas

Mid December we drove to Iowa to my grandparents house to celebrate Christmas/Thanksgiving with family. The trip is about 6 hours and Presley did awesome both to and from! Thank goodness for DVD players and Dora the Explorer!!!

She wasn't too sure of the snow gear!

She HATED the snow on her boots!!!

Tis the Season

So we FINALLY got our tree up! This season has flown by... Presley didn't know what to think of us putting the tree together, but she thought the lights were "pretty!"My little hamball in front of the tree!

Ok- so I decided to finally post a picture of me.

Hope you are all enjoying the season... we have about 6 inches of snow and expecting more this week. WHOO HOO!! Safe travels for those who do...
