March 9

Zoey takes turns sleeping with each one of us during the night. This was taken right before Greg and I went to bed. When we get up in the morning she is usually in bed with us.

March 9

Zoey rotates through the night on whos bed she sleeps in. This was Corys hour and she must have been cold. Usually when I wake up she is in bed with Greg and I curled up between us.

March 8

Makenna and I did pedicures today. She picked out one color for each toe and Mommy has feet to match. Nice and bright and ready for flip flop weather.

March 7

A few weeks ago my photo of the day was of Glub Glub the fish. Well here he is at the end of his very short life belly up.

March 6

Today Cory had team pictures for soccer. I was able to sneak my own picture of our little soccer star. His team is doing so well wants to make 25 goals this season and so far he has four!

March 5

This is what I found when cleaning up Makennas room today. Sometimes I wonder what goes through her little mind when she is playing Barbies!

March 4

A box of tissues. Yup all the stress of being sick and the house all came out today in the form of tears. But I feel much better.

March 3

I dont have a voice still so bedtime with Cory tonight was doing his search and find book we got him for his birthday. A fun activity that I enjoy too!

March 2

Want to see how much I do around the house? Put me in bed for a week and watch the laundry pile up!

March 1

Sonic lemon slush the only thing that can get me through a day when it feels like someone took sand paper to your throat.

Feb 28

Sick again. I cant believe how much I have been sick this winter. Here is a shot of my bedside table. Pain pills and steroids to get me through the next week.

Feb 27

Corys first soccer game of 2010 was today. The team lost but Cory did score the only two goals.

Feb 26

Tonight Gregs cousin Robbie and his family came into town for a visit. The girls finally settled down to watch some toons. Or so we thought! They were up and running around moments after this picture was taken =)

Feb 25

Makennas new friend patches who showed up on our door step. She is so excited to have a friend who is going to help her get through this. He has gone everywhere with us since he showed up.

Feb 24

She started her patch therapy today. She loved it when we first put it on. THings quickly went down hill when she realized she couldnt see to play or watch tv. It breaks my heart to see her go through this.

Feb 23

Makenna had her eyes dialated at her appt today. She looked like a little blonde owl. It took me bribing her with 2 new Littlest Pet Shops to get her to hold still for the drops. Followed by 13o dollars in medical bills those were some expensive drops!

Feb 22

My walk to the courthouse to get a copy of our marriage license so I can legally change my name after 8 years of marriage. I may be OCD but Im also a huge procrastinator!

Feb 21

More Bionicles! My kitchen table has been taken over my this alien lifeform!

Feb 20

Everyone knows that Lowes is no fun for kids when your parents are taking forever looking at boring house stuff. They dont even have a toy aisle, but Cory and Makenna always find a way to entertain themselves.

Feb 19

Tomorrow we will be celebrating Corys birthday with Gregs family. Greg and I wanted to make Corys cake together and this was the product of our creativity!

Feb 18

Season 4 of Galaxy soccer starts today! Cory has had the same coach and same team mates for all 4 seasons. The kids have come so far and we are expecting an awesome season!

Feb 17

These are the toys that can keep Cory and Makenna busy for hours. Bakugan, Bionicles, and Littlest Pet Shops.

Feb 16

Cory turns 7 today!! We did a small cake and presents just the four of us tonight.

Feb 15

Somehow forgot to take a picture for the 15th I was really upset because I had been doing so good. Instead of leaving the day blank I went and took a picture of my facebook posts for the 15th!

Feb 14

Some girls get chocolates and flowers. I get a new vacuum cleaner. Since I have officially killed another one this was my valentines gift from Greg and the kids. For me this is like getting jewelry!

Feb 13

My new special friend from Greg. He named him Glub Glub the balloon fish.

Feb 12

Greg got a special package from Anne today, the turbon he has been wanting so bad. You can see how happy he is.

Feb 11

The week couldnt be all good. Cory is sick. Took him to the doctor and poor guy has an infected throat, ear infection, and bacterial pink eye in both eyes. Can I please send them to school in hazmat suits??

Feb 10

What a stressful day! We put in our offer and after several nail bitting hours we finally reached an agreement that worked for us! We are officially under contract to buy our house. New house new hair cut for Cindy.

Feb 9

Today I chaperoned Makenna's class field trip to the rodeo. It was freezing cold and windy but the kids had so much fun and learned alot!

Feb 8

Today was the day. Just when we were starting to think we werent going to find the perfect house for us, this one magically appears on the real estate website! Its our perfect forever home!

Feb 7

Super Bowl Sunday did not go as planned. Gregs grandmother ended up in the hospital and 30 minutes after I took this picture of Makenna and Dani I got really sick and had to go home and get in bed.

Feb 6

Today was the first day of our house hunt. We started at 9 and didnt finish till after 3. Not one single house stood out as our forever house. I thought this was going to be a lot easier!

Feb 5

Todays picture is brought to you by Cory and Makenna. They asked if my photo today could be their stuffed animals. Dont they look pretty??

Feb 4

Two pictures today. The kids went in for their teeth cleaning today. Everything went great, still no cavities. What a long way since Makennas first visit when she kicked the dentist in the face.

Feb 3

OMG is this weather never going to end. Im feeling like Im back in northern Cali. Need sunshine ASAP!!

Feb 2

The dreary weather continues. Since we might be moving soon I thought I would take a picture of the kiddos getting off the bus to look back on. They always come running down the hill with the biggest smiles on their faces!

Feb 1

One month into my project!! Nothing special today the weather has been really yucky so to lighten my spirits I bought these really cute socks at work today!

Jan 31

FINALLY!! After months of asking for the treadmill from Gregs mom we were able to cordinate schedules and get it over here. No more running outside!!

Jan 30

Today we started the search for our house. After looking at a few we took the kids to Mr Gattis for dinner to celebrated their great report cards. To top the evening off we made ice cream floats and sundaes.

Jan 29

Today we celebrated Jenes 7th annual 29th b-day. Its now cursed so she has to finally turn 30. Going to a bar where you know the bar tender and can get free drinks sounded like a good idea but the evening quickly went south. After several rounds of unidentifiable shots everyone was pretty much wasted. (we did have designated drivers!)

Jan 28

Fun day at work. I was helping re-do one of our dispay tables. After getting the body forms redressed we had an extra. My manager told me to take the stuff to the back, so I picked everthing up just like this. After taking about 10 steps I looked down and realized how funny I looked to all of our shoppers!! Thank goodness Jene was there to take a picture!

Jan 27

Girl Scout cookies are in! We have 94 boxes sitting in our dinning room!! Makennas troop did awesome, 9 girls and we sold 3500 dollars worth of cookies. I hope people pick up their order quick I have a weakness for thin mints!!

Jan 26

Today I knew right away what I wanted my photo to be. Anne left the country this morning for her 3rd deployment. We are praying for her to have a safe journey and return later this year.

Jan 25

The kids where anxious to go ride their bikes when they got home from school today. So after homework was done we headed to the parking lot. They were both doing really good riding on their own then Makenna had an accident. She fell face first off her bike and split her lip and got some road burn on her nose. I cleaned her up and made her go for one more quick ride to show her that she could still do it then we went to Sonic for an ice cream. All boo boos where forgotten and the rest of the afternoon was uneventful!

Jan 24

Today was a big day, Cory and Makenna both learned to ride their bikes without training wheels. Cory did it right away in less than 10 minutes he was off on two wheels. Makenna was a little more reluctant to give up the training wheels but by early evening she was doing fine on her own.

Jan 23

This afternoon we took the kids to the park and Greg taught Cory how to throw a football. He did pretty good but still says that he likes soccer better.

Jan 22

Tonight Cory and Makenna ate Rice Crispies for the first time. This is a picture of them hearing the snap crackle and pops for the first time. Im still not sure how 6 years has gone buy and I havent once bought them a box. When they were done with their cereal we made Rice Crispie treats!

Jan 21

I have been in panic mode since last Sat when I could not find our favorite whipped peanut butter at HEB. After searching 4 grocery stores I had gived up and figured they stopped making it. Greg had to search New Braunsfels but he found it!!! Some guys bring home flowers to their wives Greg brings me my whipped peanut butter. And he stocked up on it, that should get us through the next 2 weeks.

Jan 20

The weather has finally given us a break. Sunshine and temps in the 70s. We took a long walk on Commanche Hill this afternoon. I took this picture from the top before we headed home.
