Ready to Party!

Jessica had a couple of birthday parties in January. This was her party outfit.

"Mommy, I'm all set to go outside now!"

Jessica loves to get creative!

Here are a few pics of Jessica doing some of her little at home art projects. We haven't ventured into paint while home, but she gets to paint at her little class each week. Here is Jessica at work. :-)

Here she is using the new washable markers she got from Aunt Jenny and Uncle Steve for Christmas.

She now displays her finished pictures on her play kitchen fridge.

The Big 3-5!

This past weekend we celebrated Scott's birthday. We had a birthday / super bowl party and we had a great time. I got Scott a very special birthday cake. It was awesome! Everyone loved it too. It was just a nice time to catch up with our friends. Saturday night we had our own little family dinner and it was just a really nice time for Scott, Jessica and myself.

I think we are looking pretty tired in that last pic.

My First Blog Post

Well this is my first time blogging. I guess you could call this my test post. I hope to change the look of my blog over time as I learn more but this is a good beginning. My overall goal is to hopefully chronicle my days as a stay at home mom. I really can't get into keeping a journal but I'm always on the computer. Since my family is so spread out I hope that this will also keep them in the loop on my everyday life. So let's see if I can post this first entry and also a picture of why life is sooo sweet....
