"Do I make myspace uncool?"

LOL! this conversation went:

Ash: Myspace is soo slow and lame

Mike: I've told you this a million times

Ash: It's because everyone and their mom is on myspace, all the time. wait.. literally, even Mom's have a myspace!!

Mike: *snickers*

Ash: what!?

Mike: you're a mom, and you have a myspace...

Ash: Do I make myspace uncool?!?

LOL. I dont care what anyone says, I think I'm cool. I turn up my music on the way home from work. windows down, shades on. I'm too cool for words ;)

We have had a great couple of days. Olivia and I have done some sort of excersise. Sunday, we went running to Safeway [4 blocks] On the walk back, we found some great crunchy leaves.

She was more about eating them, than playing in them. I dont know what leaves taste like, but I'm sure Olivia does..

And the boxes of pumpkins outside the grocery store were just fantastic! I remember going to Freddy's when we were little, and my daddy telling me to crawl in the boxes towards the back, and I would climb through the pumpkins, until I found the coolest ones. [you know, the funny shaped giant ones that weighed too much] That was always a GREAT time. I took a picture of all this great orange! :) I love Fall. I love pumpkins! So beautiful!! We came home, and Daddy mowed the lawn, and the weather turned sunny and warm. I love these kind of fall days! Olivia and I sat on the grass, ate triscuits and watched Daddy mow the lawn. She ate this one triscuit for an hour. She just nibbled on it. If I would of known that eating a cracker would keep her still for a second, I would of done it a long time ago.. :) Look at this handsome man.. gorgeous.And Miss Olivia, was infatuated with the lawn mower, she would kick her legs, and get all excited when Daddy was coming towards her. And of course, it was Sunday, so we went back inside to watch Football! :) I love sunday football and watching the Seahawks. Who by the way, are totally SUCKING IT UP!! this year. Stupid Hasselbeck, throwing it ALL over the place!! And now he's out and this replacement qb isn't any better!! Sheesh.

Yes, that is my throwback seahawks sweatshirt ;)

And Olivia, found heaven in my pink yarn. She had it EVERYWHERE!

Yesterday, was the PERFECT fall day! :) It was about 60, and a little bit of a breeze. I took Olivia outside because I wanted to take better pictures of her. And she is pretty still when she is outside taking everything in. So we had a fall photoshoot ;)

Eating leaves with Daddy

And can you believe that with all this fun, i've actually had time to sit down and scrapbook? Okay, well just one page, but I love when I find a picture and it's perfect, I immediatly want to sit down and scrap it!

Here is a random sassy face.

And what is this amazing photo?! The world's BEST cupcake. I kid you not, it is delectable! The "icing" is not icinig. It is a chocolate mousse! :) Yumm.. Mike shared this with me last night.

Alright, longest blog post ever! This is a catch up of the last 2 days! :) This weekend should be great. Taking blewett pass to Wenatchee to see the colors. Costco. Getting see The Juenemanns and sweet little Lydia, Pumpkin picking and dinner with the Brady's, and hopefully getting to meet my sister in law and beautiful neice! :)

Looks like a busy weekend! Good thing all the cleaning in done around here!

God Bless!!

Oldy but goody :)

Purging my old email folders I came across pictures of Michael when he was a baby. I had Mom send them to me when I still pregnant with Olivia. I wanted to be able to dream about her and I wanted to think about how she would look when I was holding her for the first time. I came across this wonderful photo of Michael playing in the dirt and I cant help but notice how alike they are. How much they are each others twin, and I couldn't be happier.

forth on a friday

Today is forth on a friday. This is the forth picture in the forth file in my file. eeek. I dont even know what it could be. Of course, It's Olivia. This was taken 6/6/2008. She was ALMOST 4 months old. And looking as cute as ever. I LOVE THIS FACE. Look at those tights! And she cant even really sit up herself. I think she should wear those tights today, that outfit actually, minus that jean jumper because that was 0-3 months. My beautiful girl.

Olivia and I went shopping yesterday at Target and Craft Warehouse [mom, you are going to love it!!] She had fun in target, got a little fussy. But not until we were at the checkstand. On the way to the craft warehouse, she fell asleep and had the cutest look on her face. Nothing is sweeter than sleeping babies.

Gretchen and I had so much fun. We enjoyed being girly together without the rush of the boys.. :) Mike informed me, he LIKES going down all the aisles... as long as he is with me. How cute is he? I bought some great papr and accents! All 75% off :) I'm good at what I do.

I work saturday and I'm pretty much off the rest of the week, which is good because I have 2 craft projects in the works. A web bowl, and ghosts!! :)

xoxo

God Bless!!

new shoesss

Olivia's new shoes came in the mail yesterday! They are so sweet and she likes having them on. They are size 2 which I guess goes from 6-12 months. She has some toe room which I hope means that they will fit her from now til the end of winter. Her little pigs will enjoy the warmth and I will giggle at how cute she is.

sicky.. :(

With what? I dont know. But I spent my morning drinking coffee, trying to get rid of the body aches and blowing my nose! I dont know why it is, but the sinus medicine i'm taking just isn't cutting it. Maybe my nose will just RUN off.. :)

Olivia actually sitting still for a quick second.

We had a great weekend with my parent's coming over on friday and staying until sunday morning. :) It was awful weather. My parent's brought the rain with them! They also brought presents! I love presents :)

Olivia and Grandpa

They gave Mike his birthday present! A Kelty Backpack for Olivia! It's snazzy red and it pretty high tech! :) I would highly recommend it. It is so light! :) Mom has all the pics of Mike wearing it, but I'm super excited to get it out on the trails. :) We planned a trip for next week :) Swauk Creek, here we come :)

Lately, Olivia hates putting clothes on... Must be the confinement. lol. She did get a new outfit this weekend and looks pretty darn cute in pink and brown.

I told Mike that they were going to call CPS on us for putting Olivia in the dryer. But look at that happy face. Maybe she is the one stealing all the sockies??

And because it wouldn't be a post without a picture of Mike and I.. here we are being silly. A glass of wine later :)

Now I must get going because olivia is crawling around the room with a bib in her mouth grunting.. maybe it's breakfast time?? LOL

xoxoxo

Contentment.

29 days til Halloweeeeen!!

That's right. There are only 29 days and I'm so excited for the spooky time of year. I LOVE halloween! I cant get enoug of it. This year, I'm going to be a witch. A Martha Stewart Witch to be exact. And I think we may even get trick or treaters. :) We live on a main road. I'm not REALLY countin on it {OK, I totally am} For the start of the month, I decorated my front porch in spider webs!!

My sister and I use to do this for Mom when we were kids and live on Sarazen. It was awesome! We had a much bigger front porch and it took us all afternoon. My front porch took me half an hour tops but I'm sure it will get some scares out of people {If not, just Mike, who HATES spiders}

It doesn't look that scary in the picture. I promise it is! :)

And in Olivia news, not a lot is new. She is constantly shocking us with her want to do new and exciting things. She keeps me busy, that is for sure. I love every second with her. We caught this sweet moment during one of her naps.

That's all for now, I have to get ready for work :)
