O to the M to the G!!!

We got home this evening and Josie was just dieing to go in the backyard to play. It's completely kid safe back there so we let her run out there while we put away the groceries. Not more than 2 minutes later I go out there to check on her and this is what I found...





Even the dogs seem concerned!

Fashion Show at Lunch!

Our favorite's show is The Office and one of the lines we often repeat to each other is "Fashion Show, Fashion Show, Fashion Show at lunch". Anyways, Josie was looking way too cute today so I had to snap a few photos, by the time I was done I had taken 87 photos. Good thing for digital cameras! Just a fun time with my girl and anytime I can use a quote from The Office, I'm happy!
P.S. Thanks for yet another gorgeous dress, Kelly! =)

Tulips are in bloom!

Our trip up to Skagit Valley's Tulip Fields was surprisingly dry! No rain at all. It was waiting for us when we got home though. Josie loved the tulips, I personally could have stared into the seas of color forever, they are just amazing!

Update on the daffodil bulbs!

Okay so we now have "hot" as in stolen flowers in our yard! Not sure where my friend found out about the "free" bulbs, but my parents neighbor went to go pick some up too and the police showed up and told him that the bulbs are not to be taken! Whoops! Am I supposed to dig them up?

A great weekend!

We had a pretty jam packed weekend. A birthday party on Saturday and on Sunday we heard about a daffodil farm that closed down and had free bulbs. So we spent the rest of the weekend working on the yard and visiting Grandma & Grandpa where they were planting daffodils like mad as well. Next year we will probably have over 200 daffodils and my folks will have about 1,000 around their yard and pond. Should be gorgeous. I of course forgot my camera and missed out on some great shots, but oh well I still have the memories, for a little while at least, lol!

Almost forgot the best part. Sunday evening we took the kids to see Josie's first movie in a theatre. We saw Monsters vs. Aliens and she was just wonderful during the whole thing, we let her hold the popcorn and she thought that was just the coolest thing ever. I didn't know the movie was in 3D so that was a treat for me. It was a really fun movie and I highly recommend taking the kids to see it in the theatre, but OMG go to a matinee. I haven't been to a movie is so long and was shocked that it is $13.25 for an adult, geesh!

I got an email!!!

Josie got a birthday gift from one of her friends at playgroup Wednesday. She was opening the card as I was putting her in her carseat and she shouted in my ear "I got an email". It made her so happy to get mail so I'm thinking I will start letting her open my bills. At least someone can enjoy them.

Man I love her!

For all my friends and family that continue to give me crap about Jewel here you go. The skit was totally her idea and hilarious!

Our last night of 2!

Wow, I'm actually feeling very sentimental tonight. It just sort of hit me. My girl is 3 in a matter of hours. I can't say it's gone by really fast, I remember most of it and I would do every day of it again if I could! I took a bunch of video of Josie tonight and had some funny conversations with her. She wasn't as chatty as she has been lately since she's a little under the weather, but this one was pretty funny. (I'm learning to accept my voice on tape since I can't change it. I think everyone hates hearing there voice though don't they?)

:(

Josie is sick today, a little cough and a small fever. I'm hoping that she is better by Friday for her BIG #3 Birthday! You can totally tell she is almost 3, she is talking up a storm and I just love it. I finally get to read to her now too, before she would always take the book from me and want to read on her own. I have a theory that she really wants to know what the book is saying now so that's why she wants us to read it to her. I absolutely love the stage she is in. Curious, playful, sweet, funny, sneaky and just a joy to be around. I'm constantly off task because we are playing so much lately and I'm completely okay with that. However today we are just chillin', a good day to get caught up with work and snuggle with my girl. I am so lucky to be this girlie's momma. :)

Make that 2 days and 3 parks.

Okay technically two parks, but we went to one of them twice. After posting today we spontaneously headed back to our new favorite park. We were really excited to feed the ducks and play in the water. We had so much fun and it was absolutely gorgeous out tonight, it was very peaceful! We had a great encounter with a very friendly squirrel too. It was nice to be out with Daddy, he's been working a lot lately!


2 Fun Days at the Park!!!

I had to post this pic, it was so funny!

With friends by the water!

Still chilly, but nice to be out in the sunshine!
