mamma Jamieson is back:)

SO the blogger hiatus is over and now I just have to throw a bunch on a catch up. I have decided it is important to blog for our freinds and family who are away so I am going to try to be better, but nothing fancy. I do not make books out of my blog or use it as a journal. I just want our families to be able to follow our lives a little better. So the pictures are out of order, but, oh well. They're there and you can see what we have been up to!
Naomi's carnival birthday party. It was a lot of fun and work.

Practicing face painting. Now I can be hired out. Not really. But fun and the most popular item was a rainbow. I think I did 5 that night.

Classroom celebration

Jon Johnson home. The prophet preached from these steps and was taken out this door when he was tarred and feathered.

Kirtland Temple

The school of the prophets was on the top floor and Joseph and Emma lived here for a year.

Practicing facepainting for her birthday carnival party. It was a hit and a very fun party. we had fishing game, bean bad toss, can knockdown and even a carousel cake.

Birthday crown

We barricaded her door for her birthday. Look at that hairdo. A little mullettesque

Cupcakes for classroom

Sledding in Michigan

Naomi's very first valentine box. It took everything in me to not do it for her.Well I did cover the box and she decorated it. I remember loving doing this as a child, and I still rather enjoyed it.

He's Smiling......

Okay, so we don't have it documented yet, but he smiled, and it was for me mommy! But we have plenty of pictures with the furrowed brow. He must be a worry wort or something!


We just thought this was funny because he is so stiff and holds his legs out.

Bobby told me to cover his manhood,

Morning cuddle session and Stella of course hamming it up.

and again...

Here are the rooms...now I will have you know, they are not finished. I still have to embellish the chandelier with shells and starfish that I already have and I am looking for some blue beading like garland like to drap from it to look bubbleish and also some larger than life mermaid dolls and a rotating table lamp thing to make it look even more like underwaterish. So anyone seen any of those things? Some shell tie backs for the drapes are in the works too and I will probably also put some shelving on the walls above each bed with their own individual accessories. Stella will be getting her big girl bed soon with the same bedding as Naomi.

And here is the little man's room. His very own. I have a Enzo Ferrari picture I am going to frame to put it here and then from there probably stick to mostly black and whites of maybe pics of him or vintage ferrari's and some shelving. He will get the crib and my friend is making a bumper out of the same fabric as on the draperies. Sweeeeet.... thanks Fran! anyway, his is not done too, but I am sending these out anyway, as hard as that is for me:) And the chair is the Poang rocker from IKEA; Love it!

Enzo is getting so big!

Here is a video of Enzo. Sorry I couldn't figure out how to flip it the other way. I'm sure it is probably easy. He is getting so big and we are waiting for that smile any day. Which will make some of the long nights a little more bearable:)

Our favorite word Stella says is ice cream, so I threw that in there too.

Halloween!!!! and some other October fun

Naomi was a kitty cat and Stella a doggie. I think they are pretty darn cute. We thought this kind of suited their personalities a little, Naomi a little more cautious and observant and Stella...well not cautious. we had to redo Stella's nose about 6 times and now have black face paint on three couch pillows, our bed, daddy's jeans and Enzo's head. They had a great time and made out great as far as candy.

This was Naomi's blueprint for daddy to carve the pumkins. You can see how he did below. He made stella a little happier and turned her frown upside-down.

We had our own halloween fun too and went to the annual Forsyth halloween party as the tried and true patient and doctor. We took home funniest costume for the 2nd year running, last year being adam and eve. The decor was an egyptian tomb which was fabulous (good job Fran) and Bobby warmed his buns by the fire!

Where's Enzo?.....oh there he is in the pink blanket next to his rowdy sisters

This is Stella's favorite face to make in pictures. She cracks us up.

Again the face, and she decided to change the skeletons diaper and give him a pacie.

Naomi right at home on a pony.

More of Enzo

Here are some more updated pics from Enzo's first 4 days of life (and a couple from prior to arrival).:) He is a great baby and seems to be adjusting very well to life outside the womb. The girls absolutely adore him! Stella thinks he is a baby doll, so we keep having to tell her to not put her hands in his face or "that's too hard", etc...:) We are so happy and feel so blessed to have him here and have him healthy. Thanks for all of your comments and support.
