Cellphone Scrapbook (You know You have One)

Sorry no post last week. The ladies of the house were sick as dogs. (Try Alieve for severe sore throat.)
Good news is: Jake backed up my cellphone data for me.
So here's what a scrapbooker calls a Biggie-- Woody themed.

Allie and Santa (she's humoring him) Pre-curly hair.Ladies and Gents, I present to you: Potty Training.It is a constant party.
It's gotta be a total party if it causes riots, right?
-Many FHE trips to Applebees have occurred.
Don't tell me you don't take a snapshot to price check. Just me?
First shopping cart ride together up-front.
She's an old pro, now.
Cellphone attempt to catch the bright and beaming sunrise moment when Danielle was born.
"Not at Church because I can't be reverent today." (It was the red power suit, I think.)
Natural anomalies: You could see the turbulence in the wispy sunset (look closely). Like Fingerprints, they are.
Looks good, huh? Not. Guess. Okay.... Allie poured her milk in my big glass of cranberry juice.
Eastern Idaho State Fair. 'Nuff Said.
Special Seattle Children's Hospital stay
Wagon rides around the hospital
Allie's friend. She fed her a lot of Cheetos. And tried to take her pinwheel. We would check on her every day.
*love, love, more love*
Then the crab I bought to support the Forks Kawanis for four dollars. A fraction of the price of not finding any clams ourselves."la Clammer"
"Girl Eating Food"

Not without it's ups and downs, cell scrapbooks tell it like it is. Have a great week!
And back up your pictures because your life happened on them. :)

It's All Here

Yes, there's the stress, the obligation, the payments, the appointments, the pace, the lack of time; there's going to be no denying on my part and I know you can relate. That being said, I have a musing for today, inspired by the changing of the seasons (what thing better?):

It Is What It Is

Sun is shining,
Greens are budding,
Frogs are starting out small,
Yet, inside still, what's happening greatest of all,
Baby girls thriving,
Tinkering, practicing laughing,
Fiddling, more specifically: Cute,
God has given me lovely routine days,
And I feel blessed to live with the Loot!

Happy Dearest Allie Three

Allison had her third birthday. This is her tribute:
She was excited. Then she was nervous. It is a lot of pressure having a birthday, these days.
Traditional birthday sign (from my childhood), traditional breakfast cereal (from Jake's), and traditional flowers from Daddy (new).
New Great Idea this year was to make cupcakes for everyone (which is popular now anyway) but a little cake of their own, with their name and candles; which especially works for the most flamboyant kid-spittle candle blower.
And, of course, another cake. For her to eat and "help" with during the day and hours leading up to the big moment.
I thought it was pretty tasty, too.
As far as presents go, she was shocked at the fine gesture saying,
"Oh?! For ME??!" at each one.
Then by the last paper torn, she was shouting, "NEXT!!!"
She takes to this princess thing well. It was her day!
She was so loved!
SHE IS SO VERY LOVED.
Sweetest Birthday wishes for a wonderful year of learning, growing, and pure joy for you, AllieCat.
