Happy Halloween!

We hope you all had a fun safe Halloween :)

P.S. Hopefully more pictures to follow, I took a bunch on my Dad's camera and just waiting for copies.

Who Knew Sewing was So Hard!

After many hours, and modifying the patter to just work for our little munchkin Phoebe's Halloween costume is done. Pictures to follow :)

Now just on to the baby blankets and Phoebe's Christmas present.

Wish me luck!

Project Runway Here I Come....

So Halloween for me has always been about homemade costumes. Growing up my mom made my costume almost every year. So this year I decided to attempt to make Phoebe's. My sister in law is storing her sewing machine at my house and so I dug it out. I am making Phoebe a monkey costume below is a picture of the pattern. I will try and post the finished results when I am done.

Go Bees!

We have been going to a number of baseball games this summer, even though I normally don't pay too much attention to the game I love going.

Phoebe and Oma enjoying the game!

Phoebe and Her Reflection

Tried to upload a video but it didn't work, but I guess my friends can see it on my facebook. Here is a few pictures of Phoebe playing with her reflection, one of her favorite pastimes.

She loves to give the "baby" kisses!

We Have Arrived!

Phoebe and I made it to the middle of nowhere aka Roosevelt Minnesota. Phoebe's first trip was an eventful one, it took us a total of 18 hours to get from Orem Utah to Roosevelt Minnesota. But she was a trooper and didn't have a sinlge meltdown. To summarize, our flight to Minneapolis was delayed 3 hours, which made us miss our connection, so we ended up with a 4 hour layover, and didn't get into Grand Forks until 9ish, then came the drive to Roosevelt. But we are tired but alive!

6 Month Photos

Here is a preview of Phoebe's 6 month photos, we are still waiting on more to come.

I need to blog, I want to blog, but.....

I know I need to blog, I actually am in the mood to blog. But since my life revolves around my baby, pictures typically accompany the post. Well can't find the cord for my camera, somehow all of the pictures are on Matt's PS3 but not on the computer, see where the priorities are :)

Hopefully when Matt gets home he can help me find the cord then I can post. But tonight is Thirsty Thursday at the Bee's game so picture posts will probably have to wait until tomorrow!

Moving?

So Matt has been on this kick of getting out of condo/apartment life and buying a house. I am all for it but there are some things that scare me, not the buying part we own our condo, but the yard work. I have never mowed a lawn, not even once, and I am no gardener. Well I will keep everyone posted on whats to come, I think we are putting our condo on the market just to see what happens :)

New Friends :)

Phoebe has recently decided her swing isn't that bad and actually has made some friends! The swing has a lion and cat (I think that's what it is hanging from it and she loves to sit and jibber jabber with them.She also has started to grow found of her duckie, name Quackers Jr. The original Quackers was a rug Matt and I had a long long time ago that has since passed on. She loves to put it up to her face and chew on it.

Splish, Splash, she was takin' a bath....

Jayden's & Ashley's Early Birthday Party

The Hansen Family got together last weekend to celebrate Jayden's and my birthday a little bit early. Maren got an ice cream cake from Coldstone. If you look closely you will notice Jayden's name is spelled wrong, she never noticed so we didn't mention it to her at all.

Jayden had a ball, Zoey decided to come over for the celebration as well. Jayden got a dress up trunk from Uncle Marcus; Zoey and Jayden had to try on everything. Here they are posing for the camera. Jayden is cheering her heart away as a cheerleader and Zoey is a movie star. It was funny, Jayden didn't quite get the concept of posing and just kept jumping all over the place while we were taking pictures.


It was a great birthday party. I want to thank all of the Hansen family for coming over and celebrating our birthdays. On February 8th I will be 24 and Jayden will be 4. It is so fun sharing my birthday with one of my nieces :)

Ma this is what I will look like when I break dance!

First Allergic Reaction

Phoebe had her first allergic reaction, most likely will not be her last since she is related to me. She has been sick and has an ear infection the doctor prescribed a penicillin and surprise surprise she is allergic just like her mother. Here are some pictures of her poor little body a couple days ago, no need to worry though it has since cleared up and now trying a new prescription.

Happy New Year

I know I am a few days late but I wanted to just wish everyone a Happy New Year. I am so excited for 2009 and to see what it will bring our family. 2008 was a great year for us after two years of trying to get pregnant I did in early February and had a beautiful baby girl in mid November. Other then that big milestone Matt and I didn't do much we focused on work and got prepared for Phoebe to join our family.
