I know, I SUCK at updating!

So, I made this (with help from my mother-in-law) for my mom for her birthday. The olive green and beige are from a shirt of my dad's, the zigzag is from my dad's tie, and the blue flowers are from my mom's shirt.
Lydia playing with the trains.

Poor Lydia got bronchiolitis and had to have breathing treatments. It was so sad, but she did really good.

Just my girls being sweet.
Ava started soccer, her dad's dream come true- hahahaha. It's been fun, but during the second half of practice it's time for a meltdown. She also loves getting attention from the coach and has to sit or stand by him whenever she has a chance. She's a bit of a coaches pet, I have no idea where she would have gotten that- hahaha.

She LOVES helping grandpa with the garden!

Ava dancing and singing inside our dresser when we were getting ready to move here.

A couple days before we left my friends took me to San Francisco, I wish I had more pictures, but it was really fun. I really want to go back. I can't believe that was the only time we went when we lived SO close for a year and a half!!
Me, Whitney, Tara, and then the kids. That's Ava and Zeke- her bff. They are so funny together. We miss them a LOT!
Whitney, Dez, and Tara.
I know, sick picture of me, but I thought Lydia looked so funny in those glasses. Hahaha.
Ava looked pretty goofy too.



So things have been pretty crazy. We've been trying to get our house ready to move in, but it's taking a long time. Blayne's parents are doing almost all the work themselves- they're troopers. I can't believe how hard they have been working. All these things that we didn't even think about, it's crazy. The girls have been sick off and on, so we haven't been able to get out much, other than for running errands, which aren't very fun. My poor bored kids! At least Denise lives here and has girls about the same age, Ava loves playing with Alia. Well, that's pretty much all that's going on with us. Oh, and Blayne's in his LAST week of busy season- YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for it to be over, although his hours weren't nearly as crazy as when we lived in Sacramento.

Been Awhile...

Here are the girls in there Christmas dresses right before church. Sexy faces, huh?
Well, that looks comfy, what a dork, hahaha.
Christmas morning in her little hat and booties that Uncle Brad had made for her, SO cute!
Ava played with that house for like 3 straight hours, it was incredible, she's never played with a toy for that long!
Apparently Lydia thought she was supposed to eat the presents, oh well, what are ya gonna do.

Christmas Eve in their Christmas jammies. Too bad Lydia only got to wear hers like twice. I got them in 12 months, and she was only 6 months at the time, I thought they'd be way too big, but my girls are chubbers!
I thought she looked so stylish that day, but she wouldn't just smile for the picture, I don't know where she gets that from, hahaha!
My BEAUTIFUL flowers that Blayne got me for our anniversary.
Right before we went out for dinner, I had to stop and smell the roses, hahaha.


It's only a little late to post about Christmas, right?? Sorry, life's been crazy! In the last 2 months we moved back to Oregon, Blayne started a new job, and we're in the process of buying our first home- YAY!!!!!! Oh, and we've all been sick, it seems like for FOREVER!!!!!!

Lots of Random Pics!

Well, Ava's pretty dang good at sharing, and luckily miss Lydia is mellow
enough to put up with it.
A little relaxing time.


Ava really likes to help us, sometimes she asks for chores. One thing she loves to help with is putting away the groceries, she also likes to help with laundry, then she'll ask for moneys for her piggy bank, smart girl.


We got her an easel for her birthday, we have a lot of fun with it. Whenever I erase it she yells "Hey- you erase my color!!"

One morning Blayne got up with Ava (such a nice hubby), anyway, I woke up and
came out to this.
Side note: Blayne bought me this bear for my birthday when we were first dating- like 6 years ago- what a sweetie.

There's a lot of sisterly love around here. Ava is SO sweet with Lydia, and Lydia LOVES her big sister. She just has to look at her and she'll smile so big, it's pretty adorable.


A little photo shoot before church.



Check out Lydia's hair- hahaha!

She's such a happy smiley little girl- I LOVE HER!!

This is Ava and her very BEST friend Zeke. They love each other SOOOO much!!! They even have little inside jokes and get so excited to see each other, it's pretty precious.

Pumpkin Patch

Hahahaha- creepy much!
We aren't quite sure what Blayne's wandering eye is looking at.

Check out those muscles pulling thise big ole punkins! Too bad we didn't get them- are you kidding me- $10 for 1 pumpkin- CRAZY!!!


She was so relaxed the whole time, she totally fell asleep. She's pretty sweet.

That is one really unhealthy looking pumpkin.

The girls, aren't they precious!

Nice face goof ball- hahaha!!!!

Ignore how sick I look- no make up and sick hair. Atleast Lydia looks adorable.



They're so cute and they LOVE each other SOOOOO much!!!! I LOVE IT!!!
