Brielle just hanging out

This week so far has been pretty laid back thank goodness. I had a chance to clean my house and do 10 loads of laundry. But it seem like for every room I clean, Brielle's right behind me making another mess lol, esp her toy room. Brielle's eye keeps looking better and better everyday, I was so worried at first but the Dr.did a wonderful job. I think in few more months you will barely see it. I'm going to try and talk Ian into getting some family photos this weekend since the last one we have Brielle is like 4 months old lol. You would think I would have lots of picture's because ian's a photographer, (not).

Eventful Weekend

Well, I always look forward to nice relaxing weekends. Unfortunately, this weekend wasn't the slightest bit relaxing. Friday started out typical, Ian working until 6, us grabbing a bite, and then the hopes of going home and having a nice somewhat relaxing evening watching a video. Well, 10:30 rolls around and I find myself reading various friend's blogs and surfing the net looking at cute pictures of babys. Before I know it, I am telling Ian that I want some sleeping pictures of Brielle, and if we shot them during the day, it would be impossible to get her sleeping. So, we run to walmart, grab some fabric and paint (to paint the set) and then we headed to Salt Lake to Ian's studio. Brielle quickly fell asleep (luckily we prepared with her pack and play in the trunck) and we made it to the studio around 11:30 pm. We ended up shooting some fun photos and made it home around 3:30 am. Even though Ian grumbled at first, we both were happy that we took the extra time to get some good shots.
Saturday was spent moving some of my dads stuff out of his old place and into a new one.... then quickly off to Maddox to celebrate my Grandma's 78th birthday. After returning home from that event, Ian decided to invite some friends over for a movie and some dessert....
Sunday rolls around...usually calm and relaxing..not
We ended up finishing my dad's move. We had to take down a large storage shed and clean carpets and a bathroom that had only been cleaned by a man this past couple years (you all know how men clean :( ). No sooner did we finish that I had to rush home to get ready for a night out with my mom and sister and Celine Dion. We grabbed a quick bite and then enjoyed an amazing concert. Overall, I must say that the weekend was good, but for some reason, I am hoping next week calms down a bit.

21 Months old pictures.

Brielle is one ball of energy, she is always keeping us on our toes. She is growing up way too fast. In the morning when I'm getting ready she wants to put on make-up and perfume just like mommy, she loves to talk on the phone lately and has been learning more and more new words like pretty, aww-oh ,up, done. It's nice because she can kind-of let me know what she wants.

Early Spring Cleaning.

Yesterday, I was stuck home because of the snow,so I decided to go through my closet. If you asked yourself "do I ever wear this shirt?" most of the time it's no, but then you think oh I will though so you keep it, even though you won't wear it . I have been doing that for awhile for every 1 shirt I wore 5 I didn't. Let's just say I have a huge pile for the D.I.

Some pics from our trip to Costa Rica.

Our trip to Costa Rica was amazing!! It is sooooooo pretty out there. The town has maybe 500 people and is a total surfer town. The sunsets are amazing and the water is warm. We loved it so much that we are seriously thinking about moving there if the economy keeps going down hill.

Valentines Pictures.

Me, ian, brielle and "mo" " jo" all in bed.....

I had Ian take some pictures last night of our nightly bedtime drama. For some reason our little girl is a night owl. We are lucky if she's in bed by 11, and has to sleep with us in our room. "Help" we need nanny 911 (lol). So in the bed, it goes me, Mo and Brielle, and then next to Brielle, Ian. Good thing we have a California king or we wouldn't all fit.
