Day 20

I didn't have to work today so I played with Ivory and when she went down for a nap I put my new desk together.  She slept for about 2 hours but this desk took me 3 hours to complete, it was hard to do it all by myself, my back is killing me, but it is done. Yahoo.

There was a casualty during the desk building process.  My willow tree figurine fell and broke, darn it. There is a pic of where it hit, the desk was lying flat, and the broken willow tree......  :(

Day 19

One more catch up post and I am up to date.  I took this a while ago, but at least I did take it, just not today.

Day 18

Yes I missed a couple of days and I am catching up. Forgive me?  Life happends.  I love her expression.

Day 17

 I can't help it, Ivory is soooo cute.

Day 16

Okay so I am at it again.  I threw all the carpet that was just lying in the hall way downstairs away, and I ripped out all the baseboards. I am going to texturize and paint all the walls, and I am going to lay tile on the floor.  The painting will get done soon, but the tile after shots might be a ways down the road. Don't know when I will be able to afford the tile.

Day 15

I thought this pic was interesting so I am posting it.  Ivory threw something at me just as I took the shot. I think it turned out cool.

Day 14

This is my last posting about the Valentines tree I promise.  My 22 month old never touched the Christmas tree ever, but she is struggling with this tree. She wants to rip all the stuffed animals down and kiss them and hug them naturally.  She points to each one and names them all, and she even managed to get the hippo down, not sure how, it was up pretty high.  She also grabbed a bunch of the hearts and lined them up ever so artisticly under the tree.

Day 13

You have to see some of the other decorations up close.

Day 12

My favorite decoration on the holiday tree.

Day 11

I have always wanted to have a holiday tree that I decorate for all of the holidays. Tree decorating doesn't have to be saved only for Christmas.  Here is my first Valentines Day Tree.

Day 10

I started a project almost a year ago.  It will be a year in March, I ripped my bathroom apart downstairs and got done with it in September, but I am just now getting around to taking the after pictures. I did all the painting and tile work by myself.  My Dad helped me install the toilet and sink, but I think I could have handled that myself too.  I had a lot of fun with it,  it was just hard to find the time to get it done.

Day 9

Today I bought a new bag, don't you just love the color?  I also bought........drum roll and suspense......a new......... SEWING MACHINE!  I love my new sewing machine.

Day 8

Ivory has such a cute personality, you can see it in these pics.

Day 7

I started my Isagenix cleanse today.

Day 6

This is the cutest squash bug face I have ever seen.

Day 5

Ivory loving the baby doll she got for Christmas.

Day 4

Having a bad hair day.

Day 3

My beautiful Katelyn

Day 2

My Boys are Men.  I don't know where the time went.  If you have little ones, love the heck out of them, cuz they are going to be gone overnight.

Day 1

My kids and I went to visit my grandma in Bountiful on the 2nd of January, she is getting old and the boys are leaving, so I didn't know if they would get to see her alive again. This is the little house behind my grandma's house where my kids and I lived up until the time they were 5 years, 3 years, and 4 months old. Pretty darn tiny.

A Photo a day

A friend of mine is doing this and I thought it would be fun to do as well, so I am copying her. I am going to take a photo a day for the next year, unfortunately I missed the first day so I will start Jan 2. I am going to put a twist on it though. I am going to take pictures along the way on my progress to get back into shape. I don't want to live in this marshmellow body of mine another day. Here I come rock hard abs and butt.
