Snow Day!

All dressed up to go out in the snow! This was Ava's first time really playing in the snow!
She didn't really play though. Mostly sat in the snow eating it because it was too deep!

Phil showing how deep the snow was. Ava standing on top of the snow!

Morgan trying to create a snow angel!

On there way in Phil started carrying Derek and Ava then Morgan lost a boot so....

Phil carried all three of them in!

Here they are after about 5 min of COLD fun!

Random Pictures

Here is a horrible belly picture! Kizzie requested it so here it is!

Mommy and Ava at the top of the tallest slide at the park! This one made me sick. I do not recommend going down any slide while pregnant! Afterwards though Ava went down all by herself!

Ava was having fun with her tights and discovered that they don't only fit on her feet!

Ava's new face!

My adorable Ava. Still bald as ever!



These are the Buzz Lightyear pajamas that Derek got for his birthday! He loves them so much that he wore them all the next day and cried forever when I told him they needed to be washed! He also got a pair of Woody pajamas but they are not as exciting. He is going to wear them as his Halloween costume to the Ward activity on Saturday!

32 Week ultrasound pictures!

So I went in for my 32 week appointment and the office had recieved a new ultrasound machine and asked if they could test it out on me! Of course I said yes! The pictures were very clear and I even got some 3D pics. For those of you who have a hard time figuring out ultrasound pictures. This is of his face.

Before and After Triple D Challenge!

Ok, so according to my last post I said I was going to work on the Kitchen. Well that is a much larger task than my 32 weeks pregnant body could handle! So This last weeks challenge as to Triple D your craft area or office. As most of you know we live in a small 900 something Square foot apartment. So obviously there is not much room for separate areas. So my challenge was to clean and organize the Craft/Office/Dining Room! As you can see fom the picture this section tends to be our central clutter area. Also there is only one before picture because the desk that the computer is on is actually my Sewing machine! So of course this challenge was great because one of my goals was to take back my sewing machine table! Also I wanted to cover up all the wires hanging everywhere!



Here are the after pictures. I was able to get most of my Sewing Table back. Atleast enough to put my sewing machine back into it! The drawers are still taken up by office supplies but I'm ok with that. You can still see the cables and things but atleast they are somewhat organized. It's still a work in progress but I am happy with it for now.



My craft area is on the other wall now, in the same room but with it's own space.



I have 9 bins full of craft supplies! I have only allowed myself to have 2 bins out at the same time because of lack of space. We'll see how long that lasts!



I made the file box out of cereal boxes and scrapbook paper. It was really fun to do but when I was all finished I realized that I neglected to measure the width and regular paper is too wide to fit in it! Silly me! Oh well, I can use it for other things!



I made the Memory board from a cork board and ribbons. I didn't glue the ribbon down just incase I want to change it but I found some really cute lady bug push pins and they are holding the ribbon down. My spools of ribbon are on a dowel rod with ribbon glued to the ends and pinned to the board. Easy and removable.

So there it is! I am really excited to actually get to do som crafting becasue now I have a space! I can't wait to see what next weeks challenge is. If anyone wants to join me follow the link!
