Easter!!! Here are some Easter baskets I made for Carl, Joshua and I. It is a tradition in my family to have baskets. My mom made each of us kids a basket when we were growing up. I am excited to be able to carry on the tradition.







Thank you Sandy for this cute idea for cupcakes.













This week has been crazy. I thought that because it was Spring Break that I would be able to relax and enjoy my time with Joshua. Nope, didn't happen quite that way. At the beginning of the week all of us got sick. This time it wasn't a simple cough, cough and a sneeze. Nope, we all had a full blown virus. Luckily though, it didn't last really long. After the initial "death warmed over" day of sleeping, we all started to feel better. Which was a good thing because Wednesday we took Joshua in to have tubes put in his ears. He was a trooper, and did great. Within a few hours he was back to his active, adorable self.




It always amazes me how happy my little guy is. Especially, since he has had several rough patches of sickness. Just two weeks ago he went through a round of Pink EYE, the flu, and a cold. It was so sad to see him looking so sick and yet everytime I would come home from work he was always smiling and giggly. I am sooo glad that he is finally better. With the tubes in his ears, the doctors say he will be a lot healthier now. Most of what he has suffered from is ear aches. Here is what he looked like with the PINK Eye.





Joshua is rapidly learning how to feed himself. Unfortunately, he had not completely figured out how to get it all in his mounth.

Excellent work sis, i like your baskets better than mine...but I still think they all turned out cute. Also the cupcakes look yummy, but you missed all the hard work cause I pipped all the frosting on. It killed my hand but was fun, you did a great job on yours though. Happy Easter Hope it was GREAT!

Well it has been a while

So I have decided it is time to do a little updating. Here are some pictures. I would put some more recent, but I am HUGE and so I am in denial. Maybe soon, lol. Especially since I have been on a dye my hair kick. I am careful to avoid my scalp, in case it is not baby safe, but I am slowly going BLONDE! It is kinda fun.

So the baby is coming soon. We have an appointment next week to find out how soon. Last time I was in they told me it would be early June. That is a month early, but the baby is growing fast they say. I have placenta previa. They are still hoping it moves though. I really want to get blogging more. Once the baby is born it should be easier since I will have tons of pictures of him to post.

Well Off to BED I have school, so I will post more later. Hopefully it won't take me as long to get back on here.

This was too cool not to take a picture. It is a dust devil we came across in Phoenix.
