Baby Steps Out the Front Door

Have you ever seen "What about Bob"? Its a real gem if I do say so myself. It has been a family favorite since....forever! Hence my title.



So speaking of BABY STEPS within the last month Owen has taken 4 steps. On 4 different occasions. The first 3 times he fell right after taking the step and so David doesn't think that that counts- so we haven't counted ANY of them- Oh, but you know im writing them down ;) Yesterday he took a single step but instead of falling he sat himself down. I see some real progress happening here! What a smartie pie!

Also my sweet boy cut tooth #3 while we were in Utah- it was a bottom tooth, so he has 3 on the bottom. How silly. I was so positive that he would have his top two teeth BEFORE we went on our trip but no, no, no!!! However! I am please to announce, that as of this morning, Owen cut another tooth! This time it being a top tooth! That makes almost a whole mouth full of teeth! (...ok not quite, but FOUR!? WOW!)  Its a sad thing when you wake up one morning and you no longer have a baby but an adult, I feel like im there now ;(



Some other exciting news: We got our passports last week! Whooooohoooo!


Good thing the boys are workin on their Jamaica abs!!



Another random story: I found this candle website called Diamond Candles and as soon as I 'LIKED' them on FaceBook my sister saw it and also fell in love and ordered one for her and one for me! How sweet! So when I went to Idaho she gave it to me, and as soon as I got home I started burning it every chance I got! They are made with really good soy wax so not only are they fun, smell good, have a surprise (better than the cracker jack box), they are actually good burning candles! and at a pretty decent price too!
Inside each candle, about 1/4 of the way down in the wax they have a ring inside worth 10$-5,000$ Its totally random.
I finally got my ring out (wrapped up in plastic and foil) and it was better than Christmas, or winning the lottery! Imagine the most exciting surprise. 10x more exciting. I almost want to use the word suspenseful but that doesn't quite fit in right.. anyway hopefully you have a little taste of how crazy the whole thing is!
My ring was a 10$ ring and thats ok! There is always next time ;) BUT it was probably not one I would ever wear, are you feelin me? I cant wait to get another! I will be ordering a hand full shortly, because you have a (not very good chance im sure) chance at winning some major diamonds David thinks its not such a bad thing. Its an investment really! ;)







Below are pictures of my sisters candle, and ring!

so close!

see that dot? Thats how you know where the ring is!!

Way better than mine!

I need to get some laundry done and that is a hectic process... I miss my washer and dryer and NOT having to leave me home to do it :) But oh, well it is what it is, and we all need clean laundry!



Did I mention while I was at my moms I cut over 7 inches off my hair, and I still have some length. Yep. Crazy. I know.

HAPPY WEDNESDAY! The week is half over!!
