New Camera






I have a new camera, and am loving it! So fun to take pictures with, I have a Nikon D-40 SLR. So fun! Thanks honey for the awesome V-day present!
Emma said her first word- "choo, choo!" I was trying to convince myself to get out of bed when Emma came in carrying one of Austin's trains. I thought I heard her say "choo choo", then I asked Ben if he heard it and he said no. Then again there was a little voice that said "choo, choo..." as she was waving the train in the air.
I guess Austin has an admirer, she loves her brother, and anything he likes or does she is right there too. It makes me so grateful that Austin is overall a great example, he is loving, polite, friendly, tries to be obedient, helpful (most of the time), curious (which can get him into trouble), and smart. I hope that Austin and Emma can depend on each other for good examples and can take the responsibility of being a good family member to heart. I know that having that responsibility helped me to make better choices when I was having difficult times.

Do you have any suggestions to encourage responsibility to family, or encouraging sibling love? I would love to hear them!

Long Time





































































































Haven't posted in a while so thought that I would throw up some pics. We have been busy. Emma just truned one this week and she is now walking. She is getting so big! Ben is a ref for the Parks and Req Men's League. He loves it (most of the time). Austin is now two and is starting to talk more and more, learing his colors as well as how to be nice to his little sister. I have lost almost 20 lbs since I have been actively trying to loose it. It feels great! Now I can fit into the same size I wore before I was married. Hope all is well with everyone!
