How funny is this?

It is so much more fun to play the piano sitting on big sis. What you don't see is Molly was standing on Autumn's stomach and her little feet tickled so bad that Autumn was giggling so bad I thought she was going to pee her pants. Of course that ended by the time I found the camera.
Molly now loves to tunnel so Autumn makes a bridge can you see Molly in the distance she is on the move.

Here I come!


Ta Da!



How funny is this? Back and forth as long as Autumn can hold it. Autumn will have abs of steel soon.

Iva and Alex's Birthday Party

Nicki and Matt have the same problem we do. They have 2 September B-days like we have 2 Octobers. You can have 1 party though! Iva turned 7...
And Alex is 9. Wow how time flys.

Go Iva.


Alex seemed to like his present.



So did Iva. The funny thing about Iva's gift is Autumn and I got her a Build a Bear kit. Iva, who is a stuffed animal junkie, had never been to Build a Bear and really has been bugging her mom to go. What Iva didn't know is we were going on Labor Day.




Iva and Gabi hamming it up. Autumn was at dad's. Alex and Autumn are on different weekend and Nicki had to plan the party so Alex would be there. Autumn and Iva will be hanging out Monday.





Mike spoiling Molly big surprise.






Got you Mikey.







This is Jenny, Nicki's sister and Emily.








And this is Shawn, that Jenny claims most the time and Brice. Brice and Autumn have the same exact B-day year and all Jenny was at St. V while I was at Toledo Hosp. How funny huh. Nicki and I didn't know each other then but I think it is cool.









Build a Bear

For anyone that doesn't know what Build a Bear is your lucky. It is an ADD nightmare. Mom look at this... I want this... What about this... But we love our kids and they love Build a Bear.

My question is this how many "bears" do you have to get before you can just go and buy more close for the bears you already have? Why do you have to get a new bear every time too? Yeah right mom.


Bear bath time.



Iva decided on an outfit and got her bunny Floppsie all dressed how pretty.




Autumn got a turtle named Swimmer. It really is cute the shell is like a back pack so you can still dress her.





Earings

We went to Build a Bear first to have something to squeeze while the girls got their ears pierced. Iva went first to get it over with.

What a trooper.


Autumn had a hard time with the second one since they went through the scare tissue a little from the last time she had her ears pierced. She did real good too. I do think she will remember the pain and not let them close up this time.



How pretty they are, and the earrings look nice too. We took one more stop on the way out at the Godiva chocolate shop for a treat each and then we left. 2 very happy girls and 2 very tire and broke moms! The fun of having daughters.




Roller Blades

Autumn wanted roller blades so she saved her own money and bought a pair the other day. She has skated before but she normally skates in the basement at one of her friends at dad's house. When I told her she was going to be skating out side the courage sunk a little.

She did ok stayed real close to the house.

Then she got a little braver. That's the neighbors house. I'm sure it will be just like her bike next week she will be wanting to go around the block. This is how it all starts!


Molly the Bull

Molly crawled around the other day with this ring in her mouth almost all day. She looked like a Bull with the ring in his nose.

It took a while to get a picture she would pull it out when she saw the camera.
What a fun moment! What a great smile, on both of them.


August 1st and September 1st

Ok I didn't forget or skip out on my weigh ins I did forget to blog though. Not much news I'm officially stuck 184 ya fun. Yes that is less then pregnancy but I didn't like it then either. I finally unpacked my close that were in storage while we had the house on the market, why was I in a hurry to get them back? Why did I think I could fit in anything I wore before? I am back into a 16 most of the time so I can at least shop in the regular department sort of, the 16w does fit better. I'm going to have to do something different this isn't working enough. I gave myself a goal of 150 by Molly's 1st B-day, that's not going to happen I knew it was stretching. We will see how the next 2 months pan out. Yes, Molly will be a year old in less than 2 months how crazy is that.
