W squared.

Waving and walking that is...

Yep...our big boy has started doing both of these things! Well, if walking means taking 2 steps from the couch to the table...I don't know exactly what qualifies as walking, but he is darn close. But he really is waving...he is growing WAY too fast and is an absolute thrill to be around!

Come paint with me...

Last night as Adam and I were painting the bathroom, I was reminded of a similar time. About 2.5 years ago we got possession of our house. Our signing was at 5:00 pm, after we signed the papers we moved a mattress on to the guest bedroom floor and we were in paradise! We spent the next 36 hours painting the ENTIRE house (interior), just us.
We should have been exhausted, but we weren't we were THRILLED about the idea of owning our very own house. I thought I could NEVER fill 967 square feet. However, now I am eating those words!
As I was thinking/painting last night, I remembered what our first weeks/months were like in our new home....
We moved in with no oven, refridgerator, washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, ect, ect...
We did not even give it a second thought, we wanted to be in!
I would take my laundry to my moms.
It was December, so our garage served as our walk in refridgerator.
We ate at our parents or ordered out.
Slowly we began to acquire these necessary items...plus MUCH more.
After we settled in it was 6 months until the wedding, after that it was 9 months (and 6 days;)) until Dixon was born. It has been a whirlwind adventure, but worth every minute...:)

Liver update!

Good news! I am not diseased! We in my liver any way! I just got back from the doctor and he thinks a medicine that is causing the high liver enzymes...So I will get of the medication and continue to monitor my liver enzymes and pray that they stabilize/go down!

When I say healthy...you say liver!

HEALTHY!

One Elle of a show!

I LOVED Legally Blonde it was totally amazing! Grandma Wendy, Aunt Tasha, Aunt Maddy and I all went for a girl's night out. We had to re schedule our tickets and ended up in the very first row! It was a wonderful night of laughs and sisterhood! I just had tears coming out of my nose!! I have been singing this song ever since...I thought I would share it with you...

sweet sweet kayla.


Dixon's Auntie Kayla came to visit last weekend...we had a BLAST eating out, watching E!, and shopping. It was just like old times!
It was perfect timing to get my mind off of the procedure (which I am doing just fine from!). Dixon went to Grandma Wendy's house on Saturday and we had an ALL GIRL ALL DAY in Des Moines!! Now we are planning a trip to go up to MN to see her and go to the ZOO!!

Liver on the brain...






I guess I have had this little guy on my mind lately. I have done two things today that are not totally out of character, but a little odd to do both in the same day...

1. As I was walking to my CLASSROOM door this morning, I was pushing the unlock button on my keychain for my CAR!

2. TWICE today I have gone into the school bathroom and shut the lights OFF!

I will relax tonight and snuggle with my little angel and know that everything will go just as planned tomorrow!
