John Accident ... LOL! (assorted other pics)

Well I think it's funny! Not the accident but the picture I sent of Zada back to him on proper use of helmets!

Now for the background. John was out "in the field" last week. This basically meant 7+ mile hikes up hills and through sand and dirt that had just been tilled. Well, they carry packs that weight half as much as John does, so all things considered WTG honey!!

He tripped (in a very manly way). I hope he understands my sense of humor as I send this out into the void. I really am very proud of him! Also, to be fair, they were told not to wear helmets since they would probably pass out from heat stroke.



(this is a Hello Kitty sand pail)


Last but definately not least a picture of Grayden 3D!
He's measuring larger than gestation. I'm 36w4d...he is 37w even. Sono tech estimated 6lbs 6oz. Already bigger than Z. This can go up to a lb lighter or heavier, so he still has some growing to do.

Too cute not to share!

Look Mommy, Boop-ee's!!

...cause I haven't posted since April.

She LOVES the car in the Captial City Copelands backyard, so I got her one of her very own. She didn't even wait until it was assembled before she had to sit in it!

Hope to see you there!

Zada's First Hair Cut (11-26-08)

She did really well! It was pretty funny and she ended up eating the entire bag of gummy bears that I brought to keep her occupied. She wouldn't let me give them to her one at a time...oh no...she had to have them all at once. So...you'll see a picture with her mouth full! :D

Cassie (my stylist) gave her a comb...good thinking!!


...and the love affair with the gummy bears begins!!


WHAT...you are spraying me with cold WATER...wait, no one said anything about this!


Don't care...have gummy bears!


Have Gummy bears...AND A COMB!!!


She discovered the mirror at this point and got really quiet and interested.


Oops...dropped one! Must...save...the...gummy bears...


Hmmm...what is she doing to me?


Ahh...don't care, have gummy bears!


Seriously...don't care anymore, just focus on the gummy bears.

Halloween For Zada

Hi,
It's been a while since my last post. I'd like to say that I've been busy, well sort of, but not really. Well, anyway...

She was a turtle Princess/Ballerina. She has been a "tiny turtle" since the day she was born, but the only turtle costume I could find were for boys. MIL Sharyl put together a really amazing little tutu/skirt. I SO do not have that gene in my body! :D

Enjoy!











Are we done yet?
