New Beginings


Some of the New Beginnings Decorations. We had these little boxes we gave the new girls with some personal progress stuff and treats in them. We made the center pieces below, they took a long long time, but turned out pretty good.

More continuous pictures

The next day I tried out the continuous shot on Cassidy. I just got a whole bunch of pictures of her looking at me like this. She thought I was nuts.
I tried it again, but she just got mad that I was keeping her from her food. Notice that she is by her highchair in all of these pictures, she just wants food and I was keeping her from it.She is in the process of getting 4 new molars, they all have come through but are still bothering her especially the bottom right. So she is always putting her finger in her mouth on that tooth, I just hope it doesn't become a habit to suck on her fingers.

Continuous Pictures

A few nights ago we discovered that our camera can do continuous pictures, I wish I would have known this before when I have tried multiple times to catch Cassidy smiling! It would have come in handy. Anyway we decided to try it out and this is what we got.......sorry they are dark we didn't have the flash on.

It's funny to flip through them fast on the camera like a flip book. And yes I know I do look like a dork, but that's ok.

"Scriptures"

Last night when we were ready to read our scriptures I asked Cassidy to go get the scriptures. I didn't know if she knew what scriptures were, I have only shown her a couple of times, but sometimes she surprises me so I thought I would see what she would do. I laughed when she came back with her stickers I guess scriptures and stickers do sound a lot alike.Cassidy loves her sticker book, she likes to give it hugs and kisses.She tends to put all the stickers in the same spots, right on top of each other.

Snow Day

The other day I went out to shovel the driveway. I set Cassidy by the stairs and she didn't move at all, I think the snow makes her nervous.This is a little blurry, but I thought it was cute. She just spotted Aaron home from work and was waving to him.I set her in the snow and she started to cry. That is until Aaron started trowing snow by her, she thought that was so funny! Dad's are great!She got used to it and started walking around. I failed to put on her mittens so when she touched the snow and it was really cold, she kind of freaked out as seen in the first video.

Cassidy laughing at her silly daddy!

My Birthday

On Saturday I turned 27 years old! It was a good day, Aaron made my French Toast for breakfast, we went shopping at Maurices and bought a few things for a great price thanks to a 50% off entire purchase coupon! Then we came home and opened presents, Cassidy loved this! Then Andy and Kirsti watched Cassidy while we went out to dinner at red robin with our friends Emily and Dave. Then we went to see True Grit, which was good but pretty gory on parts. Thanks Aaron for the gifts and for spending the day with me and making my birthday special, I love you!Dad helped Cassidy write her very note for Mom in the card, it was really cute!Some knobs to hang pictures from.A knife that I really need and wanted, that hopefully will be able to slice potatoes and carrots!Cassidy was such a help opening presents! I got three frames for a project I'm working on, I will have to take a picture when it is all finished.Cassidy helped Aaron wrap this one with the scraps of paper that were left over, I tried to get a picture of us with it, but she didn't want to wait she wanted to open it right away!Carson came over a gave me a card he made and a buttterfinger, one of my favorites! Thanks Carson!Some things we bought at Maurices.Emily and Dave gave me a book and some peanut butter eggs that they know I love! Thanks guys!Since I didn't take any pictures on our date we took a couple when we got home.Jody, our Young Women's president made me some yummy cupcakes! Thanks Jody they were delicious!The next day we went to my Mom's for cake and ice cream! We didn't have enough candles but Aaron wrote 27 on there. Earlier in the week my Mom took me shopping for new garments and a new bra, she knows what is needed but that we don't like to spend money on! Thanks Mom!
