I knew they would be back...

But this time we were ready for the!!!! Jared was so excited to show me the 3 mice that we killed yesterday. I knew they would start to come out once all of the commotion settled. Here are the first 3 and I'm sure not the last. Jared wanted to know if Anthony and Nick wanted to come and help us catch some more :)

Dedication day!!!

Sunday was dedication day for Madalyn. After service we had everyone over for lunch. We are so blessed to have all of our families and so many friends here to help us raise Madalyn. She is a very lucky girl!!!!

It's been a long time...

I know it's been about a month since my last post. But in my defense I never promised an updated every day, or every week for that matter :) It has been crazy around here!! The biggest excitement in the last few weeks is our MICE!!! Yep, we have mice. And I don't mean just one or two, the pest control guy called it an infestation!!!! We just got done clearing out our basement and laying about 20 traps. Nothing yet, I'm sure we scared them away with all of the commotion. Don't worry I'm sure thy will be back, and when they arrive we have peanut butter waiting for them :)

Soft Ball

For those of you who don't know, Jared recently switched companies. He used to be with Halliburton, but recently was approached with a great opportunity to go to another well servicing company. He is now with Superior. They are new to Colorado but have been on the east coast for a while now. He had his first softball game with his new uniform the other night so we packed up and went to watch daddy play. Although they lost it was fun to get outside and watch the game.

2 months old

It's hard to believe, but Madalyn is already 2 months old. It goes by so fast. We just went in for her 2 month appointment - she has gained 2lbs and grown 2 inches. With the way she eats, I thought she was going to weigh more than 10lbs. I guess she has a fast metabolism :) The pictures aren't that great because I can't get her to sit still for more than a second, but doesn't she look cute in her outfit that Aunt Gail and Uncle Bob bought her - Thanks guys!!!

Hard Work

So while Jared was sweating in Hot sun doing our landscaping I was in the nice air conditioned house decorating our dining room. When we bought our house last year, we said we were going to do one room at a time. The day that I finished the family room I found out I was pregnant, so the other rooms got put on hold (mainly because I was so sick, but also because I couldn't be around the paint fumes). I have been itching to get started again so I worked on our dining room. Everything is done except for the chairs I am going to re-finish. I love to watch HGTV and get all of my ideas from there (I mean why pay full price for anything when you can just re-do old, cheap (if not free) stuff).
We put the landscaping on hold for a few weeks until it cools down a bit, I will show you the finished product when we get it done.

Strep. Throat

So I know it's been a while since my last post, but I'm going to blame it on me getting strep. throat. It sucks when you are sick and you have a baby to take care of as well as yourself. Lucky for me Jared was able to come home early a few days and relieve me. I thought I was feeling better so I went on about my daily routine, and now I feel like crap again. So another day of rest for me :( Although this does give me a chance to do some more posting...
