Sorry if you have given up on me. I have been kind of busy. I just started a new business, I am selling beijo bags. I have alway loved them, so I want to share them with everyone! Check out the website http://www.beijobags.com/ for some info on them. Here are some updated pic's of the girls

SNOW!

2008-12-26T20:28:00.000-08:00

Here are a few pictures of Marigold's first time in the snow. She wasn't too sure how to walk, but she liked to explore and taste the snow.....she sure looked cute.

There's a boy in my bed!

2008-12-26T20:15:00.000-08:00

Here is a cute picture of Georgia 3mos and Cole 6mos. They were hanging out in Georgia's bed while Jill, Max, Marigold and I had a nice lunch together. We had a fun visit....Crazy to imagine less than 1 year ago we both only had 1 kid.

Getting ready for my day!

2008-12-26T20:09:00.000-08:00

Marigold always tries to help out when I am getting ready for my day.

I thought it would be fun to teach along the way. Today she practiced doing her hair......

Updated Pictures

I know it has been a while..... and I am sorry. Time is flying by and these girls are growing....... Marigold is 14 mos old now and Georgia will be 3 mos old on Dec 8th. Georgia has turned into a GREAT BABY!!! I am happy to say she has stopped crying and must be very tired from it. She is now sleeping at night. Most nights she is in bed by 10pm and might wake up to eat around 6 am and then goes right back down. So I can say with about 6-7 hours of good sleep each night I am feeling great. Marigold has been going to bed around 7pm and waking around 7:30-8am. One morning James came home from work at 8:15 am and we were all still sound asleep! That is a dream come true for me! Marigold has been battling a cold so last night, even though Georgia slept straight through the night, I must of gotten out of bed at least 10 times for Marigold! If it's not one little girl, it's the other and somtimes it is both. Georgia likes to suck her thumb.... I remember when Marigold tried to suck her thumb and we would pull it out of her mouth, we didn't want her doing that. But am letting Georgia do it. I love it, because she can calm herself in the middle of the night..... no getting up to give her the binky, like I do for Marigold every night! Georgia is also holding up her head, making lots of noises, and give us lots of smiles. We are very happy! We will be heading back to Nebraska for a week right before Christmas. So we wish you all the best Holiday Season and we will update when we return. Oh yes.....and pray for our flight.... we will be flying as a family of 4 for the price of 2 if you know what I mean.... it might be a rough trip. Love you all!

Answer to prayer!

2008-11-01T20:39:00.000-07:00

We went to daddy's work for some trick or treating...... Georgia didn't seem to be that interested, but Marigold was having fun, until the group picture......

These two little lady bugs have stole our hearts!

Marigold is turning ONE!

2008-10-01T23:41:00.001-07:00

Alright..... The next 4 posts are all pictures and clips we took today, the eve of Marigold's 1st Birthday. There are a lot of exciting things going on with her right now and we wanted to share them with you. Marigold started school this week, yes we are going to a parent tot class and she is the youngest in the class. She does really well, I thought it would be nice to have an agenda for us, things planned through out the week to keep us busy. So the class is only one day a week for 1 1/2 hours. She had a lot of fun.

Brushing my teeth!

2008-10-01T23:07:00.000-07:00

SO we have been working on brushing our teeth..... in the past it has not gone so well. But for some reason, Marigold must have decided now that she will be one year old it is time to take charge and clean her own teeth.

Kissing the monkey!

2008-10-01T22:39:00.000-07:00

So as you will see on the next post, we have been working on animal sounds. Marigold was too focused on the monkey, and could not think of silly animal sounds. She had other things in mind for this video clip.

What does a doggy say?

2008-10-01T22:17:00.000-07:00

Well Marigold is a very smart little girl. Not even one year old and she makes animal sounds. Patience is the key here folks. I LOVE the end of this one, just melts my heart.

Look I can WALK!!!

2008-10-01T21:40:00.000-07:00

Tis the night before her 1st birthday. She has been taking steps for a few weeks, but now she really walks because she wants to. Yeah, I know she looks like a little monster in this freeze frame. She is WALKING!!!

Baby Georgia is 2 weeks old!

2008-09-22T20:42:00.001-07:00

Today was baby G's 2 week check up:
Weight 7.6lbs 25-50%
Length 19 inches 5-10%
Head 36cm 50%

She's doing great still sleeping well, her grumpy hours are between 9pm-11pm.
But she obviously is eating really well and is growing some cheeks like her sister.
All we could ask for is a good nights rest, but I am sure that will take a long while.
So for now I am preparing for James to head back to work.

Georgia's first week.....

2008-09-15T22:47:00.000-07:00

Well Georgia had an exciting 1st week. She came home from the hospital.

Met her big sister Marigold. And boy was Marigold excited to meet her.

Got introduced to daddys little coma burrito wrap.....

And got cozy in her new bed.

It has been a long week. But we are excited and happy to have this little one join the family. We love you baby Georgia Kate, Welcome home.

Priceless

2008-09-15T21:10:00.000-07:00

Marigold started swimming lessons today. I can tell you we are so happy we signed her up, I think she might of been a little more excited than I expected. This will be the best $40 I ever spent. She gets to go 2 times a week, and luckily Daddy can take her for the next 5 weeks and then I get to when he goes back to work. Yay!!!

$2.99 for new swim suit

$37.50 for 14 swimming lessons

$12.99 for swimming diapers

The look on Marigold's face when we get to the swimming pool....

Priceless.

Meet Baby Georgia Kate!!!

2008-09-09T20:56:00.001-07:00

So Baby Georgia Kate was born on Monday Sept 8, 2008 at 12:48 pm. She weighed in at 6lbs 9oz and 17.5 inches long. She is a spitting image of her sister. But already has pointed out her different characteristics. She is so sweet and gentle, and has a soft cry when she is cold or hungry. We are very lucky to have her. And I am lucky to have such easy labors. It was about a total of 7 hours of labor, and really only about 3 hours of that was active labor that really hurt. In fact I even convinced myself to go natural again without any drugs. I think I am lucky that I don't know what an

epidural is like, therefore it is easier for e to pass one up. So I am recovering well and I am ready to get home to my other baby,I miss my little monkey marigold. Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers during this special time, we truly value our friends and family.

Mommy of 2, Diana

Date with Daddy!!

2008-09-01T20:37:00.000-07:00

Marigold went to the beach and park with Daddy today. They had so much fun, she went down the slide for the first time, played in her favorite swing, found a sea shell, and played in the grass. So much fun! She's starting a phase of Daddy's girl, good thing cause when the baby gets here she will need him more than ever!

Update!!

2008-08-30T07:03:00.000-07:00

It has been a while since I have posted I know...... We have been moving some rooms around, getting ready for another baby, so our main computer has not been plugged in ( and that is where I download pictures).

I am on Maternity leave now!!!! My countdown has been so long drawn out for Maternity leave I feel like there should of been some sort of a celebration, but I guess a trip to Dairy Queen for a blizzard might have to do. I am really enjoying the idea of being home with my girls from now on.

Marigold is growing... she is all over the place, crawling very fast, pulling herself up to walk along furniture or just about anything that will help her. I find her standing all alone for about 10-15 seconds and then she realizes she is and sits down. She has many things to say, often they don't make any sence and then other times I really think she is much smarter than I know. She had a total of 10 teeth now. Is that normal for a little girl who is almost 11 mos old? I am shocked, but hey lets get this teething thing over with fast, I am rather bothered by her not sleeping through the night as well as she used to. Especially since I know my days are numbered.

I am have about 2 1/2 weeks left till the baby is due. She dropped the other day, and I am 1-2 centimeters dialated. I thought Marigold would be early last year, but of course she was 1 week late. This time I think Georgia might be early, there are many signs she is coming but who knows... I am happy waiting but I really am over this preganant thing, I am not having another baby for at least 3 years, and that's if we have another baby. (James wants a boy)

So I am thinking this may be the last post until baby is here. Until next time.....
Wish me luck!

Swinging at the beach!

2008-07-13T11:36:00.000-07:00

Here is Marigold in the swing at the beach a couple of weeks ago. She loves the water, the beach, the swing, and being outside. We try to get out with her as much as possible. She is so much fun!

10 more weeks!!!

2008-07-10T15:32:00.000-07:00

Well I just had my 30 week appt, and baby is doing great! I have been very happy with my weight gain, or lack their of I should say..... I know it doesn't sound good to say, but as you know I started this preganancy 9 weeks after delivering Marigold, so you can imagine how much left over baby weight I still had. So any ways, I am kind of cheerful about that.

I only have 7 more weeks of work left! That is exciting for me, everything is falling right into place, making it possible for me to stay home with the girls! I am really trying to hold back on any major purchases right now, and just focus on saving and paying off debt. That is so hard, because we all know when expecting a baby it is very easy to go hog wild and buy all sorts of things. I just found the cutest bedroom set on craigslist and made plans to go pick it up. Of course when James reminded me of our plans, I had to rewind and remember we cannot be buying cute shabby chic bedroom furniture right now. =( Very Sad.....

So we are getting ready to take a family vacation to Idaho for a family reunion. We are driving with the baby, so we decided to try leaving at night, hopefully that will make the trip easier.

Well Marigold's baby Einstien video just ended and my time is up. I will post some pic's later. Hope all is well with everyone!!!

I love vinyl!

2008-06-12T16:08:00.000-07:00

Check out this website for some great designs, www.vinylwallart.com I think I may uses some of these in the nursery! I am excited!

Say "Cheese" Please!!!

2008-06-09T21:20:00.000-07:00

SO Marigold has a variety of smiles. My favorite is the last one. She seems to ham it up quite well, this beautiful smile is what I wake up to in the am. I love it, plus she is showing off two well earned little teeth. Such a happy baby!! I love her!

SPRING TIME???!?!?!?!?!

2008-05-13T20:35:00.000-07:00

Ok, so I really don't know what I am going to do with all of the cute little dresses and shorts that Marigold has, since it is too cold out still, she plays in her PJ's while in the yard. But she still looks cool in them. She loves the bouncy seat, we say "Jump Jump Marigold!" and she giggles and laughs and jumps up and down faster and faster.

Bath time!!

2008-05-13T20:30:00.000-07:00

Marigold, LOVES BATH TIME! YES I think this is her favorite, she loves to splash and play with all of her toys. If she was ever upset, all I have to do is give her a bath to cheer her up.

Our very own blog!

2008-05-13T15:27:00.000-07:00

Time for us to start our own family blog..... Since we are now a family of three and quickly growing.... we are our own family, and it is time for our own blog.
