My parents!!! I love the one of dad and I drinking coffee. I sure dont get the time I would like with these two. Life gets so busy and I take for granted that they are always there. It is nice to pull into their driveway and get a hug when I need or want one.
I had a very busy weekend, I got the flowers for the front yard I wanted and they were planted for me. The yard was mowed. Noah took me to dinner last night for Mother's Day.We had Teriyaki and noodles. It was really good. He also bought a movie that I have been wanting to watch so we will watch that shortly. Now we need to tackle the back yard. Penny and I finally got to get our pedicures that Starla bought us way back in Feb for our birthdays. Thanks Starla. Nice treat. Penny and I are hoping to garage sale this weekend. I started another scrap layout. I am stuggling with it. I sat it aside out of frustration and hope to finish it soon. Hope you enjoy your evening.
I love you Mom!!
These are some of the generation photo's we had done. I love the hand ones. Good idea Jenny!
I want Londyn to take her time growing up but at the same time I cant wait until our next photo shoot. We haven't had a little one in the family for sometime. That is on my side of the family. So mom is really enjoying Londyn.
What can I say about my mom- She is amazing. I sit here and tear up just thinking of her. She has the kindest heart, giving, passionate for people, and just plain nice. I was so very blessed.
Also I wish I had a picture of my mother in law as well. I have several just not on disc. There is a project. She has passed now but she was a wonderful mother in law. I think of her so often and wish she was here to see Londyn. She and my mom were so similar and my mom loved her so much. They were so cute as they would hold hands sometimes at get togethers and so on. I miss her so much. Okay this has turned into more emotional than I thought. Happy Mother's Day Mom!!
Seriously she can make you smile so quickly. I love her so much. She makes it all worthwhile. Penny drove with me tonight to Philomath to pick up May scrap kits to deliver to Albany subscribers. We took Londyn along and she got to meet Tricia and Wendy. She won them over. She was so happy to be cuddled. Grandma forgot the diaper bag and we compromised with a diaper out of the playroom. I think it had been used several times on the dolls, but we made it home. It has been along time since I had to worry and think about all that stuff. I am so thankful for Penny, she is always there when needed. Have a good weekend. It will be very busy for me. So back on Sunday. Happy Mother's Day to all!!!
Okay a few pics of our three month photo shoot with Londyn. I am saving pics of my mom for Mothers Day, Okay so I just gave that away. I also have been instructed not to share the four generation photo's. So sorry cant share those. I have to respect Jordan and realize that if I didn't want something shared and she did it anyways I would be sore. I won't mention the silly video she caught of me dancing to the music station on the tele one day. I know she shared that a few times. We were driving home from dinner tonight and I was discussing how comfortable grandma just came to me. The word that is. Just came so natural. She started laughing out loud now a little. It is so cute. When you put her feet to her head she laughs.
This is another layout I did. I really like the way it turned out. I need a little direction from a scrap friend on how to post layouts. I like the way Kathie posts hers. hint hint. What do I want for Mother's Day well now that I think about it,
time to scrap, weeds pulled in the back yard and some tans. I know mom- I know it is not good for me. I can hear you now. All of us sisters are going to my mom's Sat for a work party for her day. I cant wait to see her and spend time with my sisters. This was a comment all three out of four sisters received Monday to start the work week:
"Hi all, about to start another week and just thought I would say, how comforting it is to know that we can always count on each other if we need something.Hugs"
It was perfect timing to get that email. I have great sisters. See you all Saturday.

Just wanted to send a birthday greeting your way and to tell you that I love you so much and miss you. We need to have a girls night real soon!!! Hope you have a great day.
This is my niece that lives in Portland. We haven't seen each other since last June. Yes almost a year. No wonder I miss her. She is 3yrs younger than myself and we grew up with each other. We had a blast. Live it up Mary. love ya

I started this for myself and Jordan so that we would be able to look back at this as a diary.
When I was raising my kids I didn't scrapbook nor think about writing things down so I wouldn't forget. I wish I would have. I didnt even really take pictures. I had one of those camera's that shot out a picture right then and there. Wasn't much but it worked. So these are some of her two week photo's. I cant believe how much she has changed. She is starting to try to roll over now. She just is a few days over 3months already. She loves her fist. She sucks on it over a binkie anyday. Although she will take one once in awhile. She laughs when you say "Doggies go roof roof roof". She thinks that is so funny. She loves her baths and is almost to big for the infant tub. She is going to the doctors in the morning for an ear check. She has been tugging a little bit and just isnt acting 100%! She doesnt like many covers and will kick them off most of the time. Just like her mom. Not like her grandma at all. I love lots of blankets even in the summer. The one picture is my mom of course. She loves her great grandaughter so much. I mean of course she does. Let me just say Thank goodness she didnt get my nose. I think I have my dad's nose. No offense dad. I love my dad. Enjoy the evening and the rain.
We do not remember days we remember moments!
