Getting ready for his first haircut!



He had a blast in the airplane and got to watch Shark Tales.





All done! What a handsome boy!

Addtion to the Family...

These are our 5 new babies! They were born July 21st so they are almost 2 weeks old. So far 1 is named Tiger and 1 is Angel. Jillian has yet to name the other 3. They are in their "safe tank" until they get big enough to swim away from the other big fish. two of these are the parents. The Dalmation Molly (AKA Dalmation) is the one that keeps swelling up so I think she is the Mama. Her and the white Molly (AKA Snow White) are the friendliest ones...they let me "pet" them while they're eating. It sounds weird but its cool. How many people can say they "pet" their fish?!?

Oh Jim Jim

Oh my little JIM Jim. He's the best cat you'll ever find. Well until, what I call, the nightime attacks start. He follows me around the house (but not in the annoying away), when I sit down he lays next to me, and if I move he moves with me. He lets me lay on him, he lets Lucas smack his head on his to give "kitty kisses", and he lets me hold him and cuddle with him. But like I said the night time attacks come along...and he only does it to me! Maybe it's a sign of affection... after the kids go to bed, he hids behind walls, and jumps up when I walk by, he whacks at my ankles, and sometimes, when he get's "the look" he'll attack my arm as if it were his prey. But then he's done and back to my lovey kitty! ^..^__/ meow!

My Beauties

Oh Jillian my Jillian! Can you believe she's starting SCHOOL in TEN days? TEN DAYS!! In TEN days she will be an official KINDERGARTNER... (did I mention it was TEN days????) I'm sad that she'll be in a place where she doesn't know ANYONE! Jillian's biggest fear is she won't know any ones names. But she is TOTALLY ecstatic to start. She already picked out her purple heart backpack and Hannah Montana lunch box, pink & purple camouflage pencils and a glittery fuchsia zippered pencil case. I'm excited to see all the stuff she learns and the friends she'll make. I'll definately be posting updates as the year goes on! I love you my sweets!

Lucas, Where do I start...The time has flown. You are finally starting to talk and I love the words you come up with. dease? (please), dakker (cracker), dada (that one's a given), duce (juice), wuv du (love you), bye ni (good night and good bye).. and just yesterday "ilk" and you pointed to the milk. YEA! Sure buddy here's some milk! And even though you didn't drink it, I was excited you said and pointed to it at the same time! I love that you just keep on waving to people even though their long gone, you keep on waving. You've gone potty on the big boy potty and almost poo'd in the big boy potty! Of course I should've pulled you out of the tub just a LITTLE BIT SOONER, and you would've done it in the potty... Jillian walks in and says "EWWWWW BUD! you're supposed to poo in the POTTY!" LOL! You're my little garbage disposal and I think we'll need to take out a loan to finance your eating habits but I love that you eat whatever is put in front of you... watch those hands!! Our next biggest milestone is cutting those last few teeth, potty training, and getting those words out. Then you'll be off to school in no time!! You're my sweet button and I love you lots!!

Molly it is...

Puppy!

I finally gave in. Shaun's wanted a puppy FOREVER. Why we always end up with black animals is beyond me. But here's our puppy. Pitbull-Chow mix. No I'm not afraid she'll eat my children alive... she's not TRAINED to be that way... Here she is!! Name to be decided later.
