Snowing!!!!

Who needs to work out when there is TONS of snow to shovel?? Last year, i could put much effort into shoveling because i was pregnant. This year, I'm a Lean, Mean, Shoveling Machine!!!


I think she wants in.


This is about an hour after i shoveled.

they get pretty excited when i let them in.

And this picture is right after i got done shoveling everything... Lucky me!!!

Where do i start??

We're done with the academy!!! It's so nice to have jonathan back! I'm a very proud wife!

CRAZY??

It’s a possibility. We got another dog. She's 8 weeks, and is half German shepherd/malamute. We named her Eva (from wall-E) She’s going to be bigger than snuggles, her paws are HUGE!! We’ve been talking about getting another dog, and Saturday, we did. I almost picked her up without asking my husband, but I was a good wife, and controlled myself. So I went back to the academy where Jonathan was painting, and asked him. When I had her in the car, I kept thinking… are we crazy?? 2 dogs and a baby?? YES! :+) But the good thing is, this forces Jonathan to but the gate up on the fence, and do the stairs on the deck…. Perfect timing cause he graduates the academy tomorrow! So he’ll have plenty of time. I don’t have pictures of her yet, but I will put some up soon. We don’t baby her like we did snuggles. But her and snuggles get along great now, the first meeting was a little hard, but now, they keep each other busy.

Academy 69!

Here's some picture of Jonathan in the academy!! We're almost done!! Graduation is next tuesday. I'm very proud of my husband, He's a very hard worker, and i love him so much for everything he does for me and Aurora!

Aurora

Some new pictures of Aurora!!

She love to snuggle with her blanket when she's falling asleep







Aurora love playing in her bouncer!

Update!

AURORA is getting bigger/chubbier! She loves to talk to us! She has such a sweet little voice! She love to eat her hands, and when she gets really mad and starts yelling, she tenses up her whole body and tries to sit up, I think it’s her way of working out her abs! :+) She loves her bouncer,(Thank you Christine and Andrew for letting us use it!) the past few days she’ll just sit there for 20 min, playing and talking, it’s a very nice break for mommy, plus it gives me time to do stuff around the house. She hasn’t been sleeping as much as she use to. But she sure does LOVE to eat! We pulled out her bumbo chair,(her big girl chair) She looks so cute in it. I can’t believe she’ll be 3 months this Sunday! I remember when Jonathan started the academy; She was only 2 weeks. And now the academy is coming to an end and she’s 3 months! Time sure does fly when you’re looking back.
Her new favorite thing is to watch/listen to her daddy play the ukulele. Some time that’s how she’ll fall asleep, I find it to be very sweet and cute!








JONATHAN is doing great in the Academy, we have 10 more days left until graduation! We both agree that the first 3 weeks were the hardest, and after that the weeks just started flying by. We are so excited for the Academy to be over, and we’re ready to take our next step! What is our next step? We will see!!!!! :+) God always seems to work everything out in our lives. I’m sure the beginning of next year we will have a change in our lives, It always seems to work out like that. But we enjoy it!





SNUGGLES has gotten a lot bigger, and also more protective over Aurora and me. Mainly Aurora. If at any time Aurora starts crying, she first starts off with licking her toes, because one time it worked, and she stopped crying and started giggling. And if that doesn’t work, she’ll come get me, and won’t stop whining until I pick her up. Or if Aurora is taking a nap and I’m on the deck sweeping, or raking leaves, and she wakes up, snuggles will lay by the front door whining until once again, I pick her up. At first I was worried about how snuggles would react to Aurora, but I’m not any more, I’m sure when Aurora is bigger, they’ll be trouble together.



We received very little snow, but enough to get us excited!

Polar Bear!

Aurora was a Polar Bear for halloween.. how did we come up with that? Jonathan came across the fabric at joanns, and said "look babe, she could be a polar bear!" So we bought the fabric, and i started sewing! My first time making a costume. It was a lot of fun.. and also A LOT of work!
Here's our Polar Bear!




Here's all Aurora's little friends
