Great start to June!!

The girls have asked for a day or 2 if they can have a pool. We got one for Breezy and it was not in the backyard 10 minutes and now it will not hold water. (imagine that) I was running a couple of errands and found this one. After dinner tonight Shawn took the girls out and got it all ready. Here is the last video I got. Watch really close at the end,... LOL

I have some pictures I will add, hopefully Wednesday!!

Starting Over??

Good News is that we got a phone call last week to tell us that our pictures could be recovered. We should have them in a few weeks,.. that is the uuugh part. So I have a few videos that I will share. And will have to dig to see what else I can come up with. I am determined to not spend the summer in front of the computer. : )

This one is just plain silly. Lundyn was in a phase of saying “I’m your brother” I have no idea where it came from and I say phase because I have not heard it for a few days : )

Thankful

With the current status of my 3000+ pictures, I am thankful that my phone has a fabulous camera!! These are from May 6th.  I had most of them saved in my email, and had saved them to the folder that is currently missing.

They were very curious about the sprinkler but really did not want to find out what it does. 

This one just cracks me up!!  Her face : ) I think we were trying to get her shoe back on and I can’t remember how the water got loose, but so glad I caught it : )

I think maybe she ran out of her shoe and they were trying to rinse out the grass from the inside,..

Look an airplane,… I see an airplane,…

Had to wipe her eyes on daddy’s shirt : )

May-hem

I was trying to post an update a couple of days ago and was moving pictures from my camera to the external hard drive on my computer.  I will say that my Mother’s Day was ok.  It started out pretty good, but 1) I did not get my Mother’s Day picture with the girls like I did the previous 2 years.  So I had just done that picture the day before “the crash” 2) I did not get to relax and enjoy the day due to the “paycheck” and I ended up a tad angry a few times on Mother’s Day.  (That sounds a lot like whining) A little tired and stressed : )  ok stay with me,..So I was saving pictures to use in the update.  I also saved pictures from my email into the same folder.  The girls got up from a nap, no big deal all was fine.  Come back and was saving pictures to the same folder only I received an error message that the folder basically did not exist.  YES I was and am still heartbroken.  I see it as 2.5 years of pictures sorted by year and month.  Granted, I have some really good pictures of the girls- stored elsewhere and I am thankful.  However, the pictures that are missing are like,.. indescribable.  I feel like little panes of glass have shattered.  So, the hard drive has been dropped off with the “Geek Squad” and will be sent over night to another company to retrieve my folder of (roughly 30+ months x 100+ pictures)  I hope to hear something Tuesday.  I have no idea what else is on the hard drive, but the pictures mean the most.  Ok so crying stopped,… I got this idea from a friend, and will try to find a picture to go along with it.

Mommy’s First 5K

Girls with Grandma waiting for mommy to finish.  I was apparently 2 minutes away : )

It rained and stopped and rained and stopped.  And just after the Elite (timed) 5K began the rain was back.  So my non-compete 5K was an awesome rainy 34 minutes : )

This was the very last of the run, I am on the left in black pants just behind the runner in the yellow jacket (Jen- my friend and mom of twins)  When I saw this pic it totally reminded me of a certain movie where a guy started running and didn’t stop.  I remember a scene where he was in a red hat and yellow rain coat : )

Waving to my fabulous, adoring fans just before I cross the finish line : )  I had a goal to complete the 5K in 42 minutes because it was what I was expecting from my treadmill experience.  Running outside is so different,… I finished in 34 minutes!!

April Stuff

This is from 4/4/2010-It was about 10:30pm when I went to check on the girls before I went to bed.  I have no idea why they were piled up on the floor with pillows and blankets but they were sound asleep.  I couldn’t stand it : ) I had to pick them up and put them back in bed.

This little girl loves riding the lawnmower.  Shawn said she talked and talked and talked the whole time.

 

Casey has no desire to have anything to do with the lawnmower.  I am pretty sure it is the noise that gets to her.  The week before, I was riding the mower and Lundyn went with me for a few minutes.  Shawn asked if Casey wanted to go and her response was “I don’t want to ride the lawnmower”

We asked her this time too and got the same response.  So we just played with the camera for a while : )
