It has been a busy few months, mostly with naps. Now I'm trying to finish up my masters so I can start making Christmas gifts. I have very fun ideas for what time make all the kiddos I know this year. Anyway, here is a few recent favorite photos of Jamesie this summer.Mollyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12105987427603390566noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131097941948861623.post-78876000720509661352011-03-26T19:51:00.000-07:002011-03-26T20:12:25.386-07:00<div style="text-align: center;">I downloaded Picasa and am in love with it.

Dang I can't believe it. Here are some of the amazing things he can do now:<div>-Yesterday he wanted help with something and said "help please" without prompting from us.</div><div>-This morning he wanted out of his chair and said "please get up"</div><div>-He pretty consistently will say "hi ___" or "bye ___" to whoever he is talking to.<br /></div><div>(Can you tell I'm impressed with his talking skills?)</div><div>-He LOVES Bob and Larry of Veggietales, Bob mostly. He is learning to be patient and do the "loading" dance when waiting for netflix to load Bob. He will let us know it is time to watch Bob by saying "Bob," pointing at the tv, and bringing us the proper remote. He is also getting the point where he knows how to work some of the controls and can restart Bob on his own at times. </div><div>-He LOVES Ernie and other Sesame Street characters.</div><div>-His favorite foods include: blueberries, cake, cookies, cheetos, cheese, and bread. He has become a picky eater though and most nights chooses to skip dinner rather than eat what I make.</div><div>-He can identify 17 letters (wow!)</div><div>-He sleeps o.k. Not great. Not as terrible as before.</div><div>-He loves having a house and a backyard to run around in.</div><div>-I think maybe that is all for now. </div>Mollyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02593046984153050992noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131097941948861623.post-58904099191656284672011-02-14T19:23:00.000-08:002011-02-14T19:34:08.401-08:00food blogging for coworkers.<div>So Darcy and Alex didn't believe that I could make pizza on a bbq.

So we walked to each bedr</div><div>oom and looked for it. In each room I said "nope" and moved on.

He has gotten to become a fun and exciting little boy. He likes to climb, dance, giggle, and sign. He has learned to sign "food" "more" "please" "water" "up" and "bye." It is cute. Sometimes he even says "more" "food" "please." We are still working on words out loud, sometimes he will say "da" for dog and "ca" for cat when he sees a picture of them. When he sees a cow he says "mmmmmmm." Bedtime is my new favorite, for about two months now our routine is read Jesus Storybook Bible and then Good Night Gorilla. Jason reads the bible while I feed him a snack. Then I will say "go get Good Night Gorilla" and he knows what I'm asking and will go find it. Last night he found it under the mattress at the side of the room which is impressive since Jason and I didn't know where it was.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">On a personal note, work is kinda stinky this year.

James has been doing lots this past month. He turned a year! Had his first ice cream (picture stolen from Megan's blog), started walking, learned to take the wii remote from me and shake it at the tv while giggling. He also forgot how to sleep well. I quit nursing him a week and a half ago. The first week went great and this week it seems to finally have clicked and he is now having major melt downs at bed time when we put him down, then cries for an hour. Awesome.<div><br /></div><div>On a non James note we now have offers on two different houses and we are looking at a third possible house today. The house that we had the first offer on is by far my favorite house, it is beautiful inside and fits perfectly with everything I hoped for in a house. It has a beautiful kitchen and fireplace. A decent sized yard. We should hear on this one in about a month we hope. The second house we call the mushroom house. There used to be a tree in the front yard and they chopped it down, to make the stub less obnoxious looking they put a big rock shaped like a mushroom cap on top. The inside of the house has a lot of potential. It needs a lot of paint and a total remodel of the kitchen (including knocking walls down). Its pros are it has a GIANT yard. I could use half of the yard for a very very large garden and the kids would still have a big yard to play and room for a trampoline if we wanted one some day. Plus it is one block from the school I want him at. That one will take at least four months for the short sale to go through on. </div><div><br /></div><div>I'm torn on which house I want more and wish I could fuse the two properties into one. Luckily we can just pray about it and God will decide for us by letting the banks approve one for us. What it will come down to is which one we get approval on first because we had our apartment. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>***edited***</div><div>We now have an offer on a third house as well. This one has a pretty good sized yard, the inside is great all it really needs is a lot of paint. Also it has a pretty decent view of the sound from two of the bedrooms. It is forty thousand more than the other two houses BUT it is 85 thousand less that what it was originally on the market for and we could know as early as two months. </div>Mollyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02593046984153050992noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131097941948861623.post-54227347663353311412010-06-16T20:57:00.000-07:002010-06-16T21:14:47.260-07:00James turns one year old next week! I'm stoked and sad at the same time. I can't believe he is already a year and sometimes I miss my itty bitty baby. But mostly I'm stoked because he is so much fun these days.<div><br /></div><div>James is resourceful. Today I wasn't cooking dinner fast enough for him so he found the English Muffins, shook the bag until he got them out, and then sat on the kitchen floor eating it. He looked like a total big boy munchin away on his snack.<br /><br />And also he totally took two steps today.

He is a laid back, energetic organizer. The past few days he has started to play with purpose, which Jason is totally in love with. It has been cute, we can sit for up to an hour watching as James will move his toys about. Mostly his blocks, he will move them all from one chair to a different chair across the room, once that is completed he will move them to a new location. He has also been known to help with the laundry in that he will pull his diapers all out of the basket and then put them all back in the basket. Currently he is stacking his pancake bites into the cup holder of his high chair and then eating them one at a time from there. <div><br /></div><div>He has learned how to play hide and seek. Well, sorta. He has learned how to play seek and LOVES it. Jason and I will get down and craw with great speed to different spots in the house and James' will chase at great speeds to find us. Once he has found us he cracks up and then off we go to hide from him. </div><div><br /></div><div>He is officially a climber. He can climb the six stairs outside our front door and he can climb up Jason's lap to get to Jason's glasses.</div><div><br /></div><div>His last big thing is that he is starting to stand unsupported. He only does it for about 5-10 seconds at a time tops before he realizes what he is doing and grabs for anything near by. He will also only do it if he is distracted by two toys, one for each hand. </div><div><br /></div><div>So far age ten months is my favorite age of all. I love that kid so much. </div>Mollyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02593046984153050992noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131097941948861623.post-45978288013260743142010-04-25T22:02:00.000-07:002010-04-25T22:07:07.217-07:00<div>Happy Ten Months James!</div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0lLIB3na_VYk9HdlnPaV5VeT_CC0JIlCkNGHzQ1i-y2PumxT0jni1OSLaP7i4wNWnumc1OhuamtfuOYwEBJGuDq6h_jJ4vXVmU2S9OTF3MNFrkoDD1XajV37A9cdXCQGJOpRh7is8WGYT/s1600/IMG_2932.JPG"><img style="display:block;

We can't sell because we owe more than it is worth in this economy. Which is fine, I want to keep the condo until I can sell it and get a check for some extra money off the place. (mama wants a boat. or lake house. or upgraded bathrooms. or a vacation. or all four?)</div><div><br /></div><div>The property manager thinks she can get it rented out in 6 weeks or so.

Sneaking Bike rides to 7-11 and hills for racing and sledding. Watermelon seed spitting contests and apple tree weddings.</div><div><br /></div><div>I am from building blanket forts and cheating on Nintendo Track and Field. "Don't pull her hair" "But mom!" "Don't hit him" "But dad I wish I had a sister!"</div><div><br /></div><div>I am from trips to Pennsylvania. The smell of cake, cookies, Sunday dinner, and Christmas trees. Grandma Rea in her apron filling the air with laughter. Slowly drifting into silence and confusion of the years.</div><div><br /></div><div>I am from packing up the house, picking up the pieces. Numb from divorce and my two new houses. Spiders, fights, silent nights.</div><div><br /></div><div>I am from growth, patience, and repaired relationships. New satisfaction from a friendship 17 years in the making with a brother that I now cannot live without.</div><div><br /></div><div>I am from new family built through marriage and peace.

In love with the next generation just started.</div><div><br /></div><div>That is where I am from. </div>Mollyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02593046984153050992noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131097941948861623.post-53545460355272007522010-02-26T20:15:00.000-08:002010-02-26T20:29:31.498-08:00<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>James is eight months old! I can't believe how quick it has gone! James has been a BUSY boy this month. He has learned how to say "mama" "mom" "mamamamamamamamam" and "babababa." He thinks "dadadada" is funny but has shown no interest in saying it himself. He has learned to for sure crawl backwards and is starting to crawl forwards. He is really motivated to crawl forwards when you put the laptop on the ground in front of him. He is eating lots of food these days. Purred veggies and fruits, chunky peas, turkey, yogurt, puffs, and as of tonight pasta bow ties. </div><div><br />He has such a funny little personality. He thinks it is fun to be messy, fun to be naked, fun to fart, more fun to fart while naked, and hilarious to pee while naked. He hardcore cracks up at the last one. He likes to bang on things, he is ticklish, loves the sound of the harmonica, and smiles SUPER big when I get home from work. Everyday he amazes me.</div><div><br /></div><div>Alright, on to pictures:</div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ-bGXKlKz3Rv8U3qlhRrSDt8UY5GvYEwcNOUEeHqIPuFELJaAs63AsebqZVnPbOtDqXeD5B5R0WpezhgXSRksVfF518zGzpBM0Km1TKEo4eoetXypw1R_b3Rzu5GQ3q-GeCFydtjA4XpE/s1600-h/IMG_2424.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ-bGXKlKz3Rv8U3qlhRrSDt8UY5GvYEwcNOUEeHqIPuFELJaAs63AsebqZVnPbOtDqXeD5B5R0WpezhgXSRksVfF518zGzpBM0Km1TKEo4eoetXypw1R_b3Rzu5GQ3q-GeCFydtjA4XpE/s320/IMG_2424.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442772978760684658" /></a>Crawled himself under his chair when Jason wasn't looking.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVzQYdz6e9kzAF3ij05A4nwhh6NEkpzdCj9t0pdn9UTcGa4sbovZgt1bGEQYp_XZxvKcpylboLYWwZsN9U9zwksWIEU-2ZaVIH5_x-EJCGyET1SjkM16NYhYIKgfVe7NzNsXH-6bkzz_OX/s1600-h/IMG_2484.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVzQYdz6e9kzAF3ij05A4nwhh6NEkpzdCj9t0pdn9UTcGa4sbovZgt1bGEQYp_XZxvKcpylboLYWwZsN9U9zwksWIEU-2ZaVIH5_x-EJCGyET1SjkM16NYhYIKgfVe7NzNsXH-6bkzz_OX/s320/IMG_2484.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442772964495181202" /></a>Likes me.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD0HaJZnRBNv1YCnacW8WmabFTqJMrQAYv1ooDm9oEqgQwFYLUrk2509YvOyVcLt7m5DqhZ7vM4GGRSpYuTGJ8EZ3PWwFtEODBCbS2i-KLiuaetfiRahAc9rWLnOdxIzB1-BvlLIfyJgdY/s1600-h/IMG_2491.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD0HaJZnRBNv1YCnacW8WmabFTqJMrQAYv1ooDm9oEqgQwFYLUrk2509YvOyVcLt7m5DqhZ7vM4GGRSpYuTGJ8EZ3PWwFtEODBCbS2i-KLiuaetfiRahAc9rWLnOdxIzB1-BvlLIfyJgdY/s320/IMG_2491.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442772956942646338" /></a>Contemplating out to get into the box he is next to.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuhJK10O6pXdWj2cmsX0uFICmYdrscmkrxJ4ZPiiqNS0B07xv9_YJZxtL3fAOs6fRRXnOINOMOT9Io8MnLE03boSzRcOq9GLFYwpVaFQ6AUM8ZesS35th7Cgb63WSjp3i0-7vEn4K8hxO8/s1600-h/IMG_2496.JPG"></a><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuhJK10O6pXdWj2cmsX0uFICmYdrscmkrxJ4ZPiiqNS0B07xv9_YJZxtL3fAOs6fRRXnOINOMOT9Io8MnLE03boSzRcOq9GLFYwpVaFQ6AUM8ZesS35th7Cgb63WSjp3i0-7vEn4K8hxO8/s1600-h/IMG_2496.JPG"><img style="text-align: left;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px; " src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuhJK10O6pXdWj2cmsX0uFICmYdrscmkrxJ4ZPiiqNS0B07xv9_YJZxtL3fAOs6fRRXnOINOMOT9Io8MnLE03boSzRcOq9GLFYwpVaFQ6AUM8ZesS35th7Cgb63WSjp3i0-7vEn4K8hxO8/s320/IMG_2496.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442772947152888258" /></a>Just finished painting a birthday card.
