Boards, Step 1

Holy crap. Yesterday was possibly one of the longest days of my life (topped only by the 17 hour long process it took to get the Turdette out of my belly). That test raked me over the coals. But it's over. :-D And I couldn't be happier. Today is a day where I will clean the house, it's been neglected for 5 weeks and my inner OCD child is having a right panic attack about it.

I feel so blessed to have the most wonderful people in my life. I literally couldn't ask for better friends, and I feel so amazed that they continue to keep me around.

And since a post is nothing without cute pictures.... it's time for delving into the photo album and pulling some out that I haven't posted before. Muahahahaha.

Back in the day when Dan used to work his 12 hour days in the Arizona heat, he'd be so tired when he got home that he'd just lay on the floor and the Turdette would just basically use him as a jungle gym. In this picture, however, I think she's practicing the farting skill that Daddy taught her.

And her is one of her sitting like Daddy taught her... seriously- she's SOOO lady like.

This is from when we hiked Camelback Mountain in Arizona... it was a bunch of fun... but even a 18 lb kid can get heavy after hiking straight up for 2 hours.

This one is from when the Turdette and I went back to visit Utah. She's playing on Grandpa's tractor... she really likes all the awesome mechanical toys that Grandpa has.

That same trip to you Utah, we brought her up to visit Grandma at work, and Grandma put her right to work. :)

In this one, we are all clearly looking at something... but I have no idea what.

At one point last year, Dan got really into making ice cream, and he needed exactly equal parts of mint and chocolate but wasn't sure how to do it... so I gerry-rigged a scale for him... and he was impressed. (Okay he wasn't really).
