It's still so hard to believe we're a family. Our lives have completely changed for the better. Peanut is such a joy to be around and is very easy going too! We don't have many family photos together but we need to remedy that because when I look at this shot it reminds me just how blessed we are that God chose us for Lorelei. Our little girl is such a perfect blend between us. Jason is an amazing father and is not afraid to jump in when I need a break, how blessed am I? VERY!!!! Thank you Lord for my amazing family!!!

Mother's Day 2007
Well we had our first Mother's day together and what a day it was. For some reason Peanut was super needy and needed me all day so it really was "mother's day". I was so exhausted by the end of the day and was ready for the day to be over. It was really weird for me to think this is my holiday now and not just Mom's or Nana's day. We went over to Aaron & Jamie's house after church and we all were singing Happy Mother's day to the tune of Happy Birthday to my mom and then they said my name too strange!! How did I get here? Where has time gone? Not sure but I wouldn't trade being Lorelei's mom for anything in the world, she's an amazing daughter and I'm nuts about her! I can't wait to celebrate Mother's day next year ... I won't be breastfeeding!!!!!!! I'll be able to enjoy it more!

Love Finished ATC
I just got into making ATC's or Artist Trading cards and I love it!!!! They are small and quick little pieces of art! These are so much easier to whip out during nap time for Lorelei than a much larger painting! I start with a vintage playing card and then start layering various things like stickers, my digital art, ephemera (old papers, cards, photos), rubber stamps and more!!! Hopefully I will have a huge collection of my own as well as collected, I already own 2 from other artists so I'm on my way! Hope you like them because I'm hoping to make a lot more, I just gotta get down to the antique store and get some cards and stuff!

Look Ma, I'm a Frog!
Lorelei must be part amphibian, she absolutely loves her bath time each night. She kicks and kicks until almost all the water is out of the tub! She squeals in delight when she accidentally splashes water in her own face or she splashes me or daddy. She loves every minute of it and gets upset when we pull her out of the tub and stick her in her towel sometimes. We have to immediately go into the whole PEEK - A - BOO routine and then she's all smiles! She loves the towel from Grandpa Wheaton and is usually all smiles while wearing it! She is getting too long for it though, she's got long legs, where the heck did she get that from? Not me!!! Well anyways just wanted to say I love my little amphibian water girl!!! She's going to love her swim lessons at 6 mos. old! I can't wait to do that with her!!!
