May flowers

Well, I know it has been a while since my last post. Sorry about that! Time gets away from me sometimes. Anyway, we are all doing well. Jared got moved to his new position (and building) in mid-March & he is loving it. Keeps him pretty busy. He also has started a part time job helping out at the hotel where his Mom works. He assists with some bookkeeping things there. As for myself, I have gotten into the yard a little more this year. I have a real flower bed next to the garage & am hoping for it to do well. I have interviewed for yet another position and will find out in this next week if I got the job. It would be in the same department, but as a tried and true Training Specialist. Wow!!!

As for the girls, they are getting taller by the day it seems. Both have found that they like to stand their ground against the other lately though. That can sometimes be tough for Mom & Dad. But they are both throughly enjoying the nice weather and both have a little bit of a "farmer's" tan going on alreadly.

Jared and the girls went to the zoo yesterday & did a fun run (1 mile around the zoo). Both of the girls did great. Then they got to wander around the zoo & Seanna got to go on 2 pony rides (Cassidy didn't want hers, so that is why Seanna had 2). Then they pet a rat and a guinea pig. Big excitement. Needless to say that they were both exhausted (or should I say all 3 of them) when they returned. I got to have some quiet time during their trip. And it was very nice and appreciated. What a caring husband I have. All that in addition to the beautiful flowers (see picture above) that I got for Mother's day. He is a good man.

Well, I don't have much more. We hope that all are doing well & are able to enjoy the nice cooler weather before the heat of summer comes to visit.

Take Care!

Dena, Jared & the girls.

February has MARCHed right by.....

and the temperatures will be rising. The girls are staying busy getting on one another's nerves. They both have bad cases of cabin fever. But now with the warming of the weather, the snow is melting and making a muddy mess~so still no outdoor playing.

We haven't been doing too much lately, a lot of time spent at home. But that is alright, nice to have quiet times. Mostly I know that people just want to see pictures of the girls--so I have included some for everyone.

Take Care!

February & the groundhog has seen his shadow...

So, we are expecting 6 more weeks of winter? No, say it is not so. I am very tired of this white stuff. And it has been so cold that the girls haven't really even had the opportunity to play outside in the snow. We are enjoying being with each other in the house, at least for now. Thank heaven for cartoon videos.

All around our house have been relatively healthy. A few runny noses and some occasion coughs, but nothing too major. That is a good thing.

Seanna is doing very fine with her night time training~waking up most mornings dry, which makes us very happy! And Cassidy is doing pretty well with her potty training as well. Maybe by summer we will only have to buy occasional pull-ups. That would be wonderful.

It seems that the field trips might be starting back for Seanna. I got a flyer in the cubby the other day about her group going to the circus. That is wonderful. The only downside is that Cassidy does not get to attend these things, and we usually don't take Seanna again to the same event a 2nd time. I guess when Cassidy reachs the next age group at the daycare she will get to go as well. But it still makes me feel like a bad parent.

I guess that is all the news for now~I will get some new pictures posted soon, so check back.

Take Care~
