Ava

We Changed her Name to Ava the other day as Michael didn't like Eve. he said it didn't fit. so we are now calling her Ava. and it seems to fit her better.

Its been a little difficult trying to get used to having less than 5 hours of straight sleep. I can't wait until she's house trained and can hold her potty for longer during the night.

anyways here are some pictures of her. it's been hectic which is why I haven't updated.. I'm sure I won't even be online at all in the next 4 days since Michael leaves for work tonight.

Bathroom "makeover"

So On an impulse yesterday, I tore down all the yuck.....



and here it is halfway through...





ready to be painted....




Finished product:







There are a few other things we're going to do like.... Change out the light fixtures and the towel holders and door knobs to the cabinet doors are going to match the bath fixtures. and I'm painting the Closet door the same color as the accent wall and we're also painting the medicine cabinet white.

so that was my project. I'm proud of it. that ugly CRAP is gone!

We Have a New Addition!

No, I am not pregnant!

Shocker, huh? LOL

No, after some Long Teasing from my husband (over two years) about getting a puppy. I finally found a puppy I really liked at the Mat-Su Animal Control. she is GORGEOUS. we don't have her yet as she is getting spayed Wednesday.

we don't have a name yet for her either. she's so cute. she, her momma and her siblings were found on the side of the road. it was so heartbreaking. and they were all so sweet.

anyways! here she is!



Happy Birthday, Daddy! :)

Not Much To Update.

I haven't written anything because I haven't had much to update on. We're here. We're Safe (despite the many tiny earthquakes we've had), and we're finally healthy again!

Lincoln in true fashion is into anything he can get his hands on and Cole is Mr. Attitude.

My life is awesome.

My New Washer

So As I blogged before that my washer died on us. Michael bought me a new washer for our Anniversary. it's a whirpool. and it's awesome.



Here is my dryer. I love my dryer. I hope that this one runs for quite awhile longer. because it works great and I love it! :)

The boy who shakes his head Yes and the Walker!


Lincoln is doing so awesome with Walking. he's even walking on his own more now. YAY LINCOLN!



My children are so funny. Cole has started asking for more and when I say "you want more" he responds with that cute little head shake. My kid is darn cute ♥

What is going on with our weather!!?



People! This is unusual! it is not this warm in Alaska around January. we have severe ice warnings and schools are closed down because of it. it's even almost 40 degrees in Clear as well. usually In January temperatures in Clear Average about -20 to -50.

And Not Only that...but this. Since when is Alaska EVER warmer than Vermont? it's almost unheard of. did they like do a role reversal this year or what?



Hello Spring! LOL

The Plague Has invaded my house....

So the plague has left my friend Rachel's House and has come here full throttle. Michael is sick. I don't know what he has but he coughs a lot and such. Cole has bronchiolitis, which is getting better. and Lincoln is coughing, and has a fever.....I am the only one who doesn't have this junk, but I am sleep deprived from dealing with my sicko's.





I want sleep.


Lots and Lots of sleep.

Dining Room/ Living Room


I took a picture of my sick bebe tonight. I love the stripes on him. brown is a good color for him.

Living Room:






So basically. Our Dining Room consisted of a place for us to put junk we didn't need to toys or whatever. I am embarrassed to show this honestly. but it also makes me feel EXTREMELY Accomplished to look at this and know that I did it. ON MY OWN!

Before:





After:


I noticed that the carpet is off when lined up with the curtains. I fixed it now.

I feel incredibly accomplished...and incredibly tired LOL :D

Cole's Room

As You Can See I finished Organizing Cole's Room tonight. It Is a HUGE improvement from what it did look like.......

Grandma And Grampa Got that for him!

Closet:
