Time for a new post!

It's been a crazy week for us. Both kids have been really sick all week. They actually have pneumonia! Now, I'm sick too. I'm hoping that everyone is well by next week, because I'm (hopefully) going away for the weekend. Yay!!!! Next week I'll have new pictures to post from Palm Springs!
Here are a few photos from just before the kids got sick. Don't mind her head band. I've been trying to "train her" into wearing something on her head. This band doesn't have any bows on it, so she can't pull it off. Her hair is coming in very slowly. We could do a comb-over.
Why is her nose always red?

We took Charlie down the "SALAD-DOME" as he calls it check out the Zambonie's or Olympia's rather! Dad took him right down to sit on them. He sure loves the ice-cleaning equipment.


This is Ashley's new favorite hang out. She loves to check out the action in the back yard. She and Charlie put their chairs there and it gives me a good 5 -10 minutes to do other things. Hooray!

Is it almost spring yet?

I thought that it was about time for another post. Not much is new with us. I find January and February a tough couple of months to get through. Especially when it's as cold as it is. I keep looking forward to March. It will be Ashley's first Birthday, Peter's Birthday and at the end of March, Peter and I will be going to Vegas together without the Children. Ya-hoooo!!!! Can't wait!

Charlie has been especially sweet these last few days. He wants me to take his picture all the time and he gives me hugs and kisses without me asking for them. Maybe he knows I wont be getting them from Ashley so he's piling them on. He's a good kid.

It seems like one of the only places that Ashley is really happy is in her bath. I thought that if she like her bath, then she'll love swimming at the pool. But no. It seems like a lot of effort to get yourself and child into a swimsuit only to have them freak out the moment those tiny toes touch the water.

This is a face that many people know, because she looks at almost everyone this way. Stares right through ya!

She gets a kick staring at herself in the tub

Mom took this picture of Ashley a couple of days ago. She almost looks sweet in this photo. I'm really having a hard time with her right now. I don't know if it's just the teething or what, but she's extremely difficult to be around. I remember Charlie going through a "phase", but I don't remember it being like this. Ahhh, this too shall pass! Right?

Ringin' in the New Year!

Charlie's and the chocolate factory and my smudged lens, oops!~

Happy New Year Everybody! I was getting tired of my last post, so I thought I would post something new. Although I don't really have that many new photos. Here are some pictures of our New Year's Eve. We went to Elbow Park and skated then we went to the our friends' the Valentine's for dinner. They put on a fire in their back yard so the kids could roast Marshmallows for Smores. Yum. We were all in bed by 9:30! It was great ! How the times have changed!

I hope that 2007 is filled with happiness and good health to all!!!!
