Look What I Did!

I cut ALL of my hair off and colored it! I really like it! The color is not showing up very well in these pics, it is a mocha brown with a hint of red. It is a very drastic change, I was very overdue! Before I got preggers with E.J. I changed my hair all of the time. It has been every color pink and black included. I grew tired of the mom pony tail and needed to cut it off. The blond highlights were also on my nerves. I had that style for way to long, 3 years or more! The cut is very very short in the back and longer in the front (reverse mullet), think Posh Spice ( I am sure people are going to mistake me for her all of the time now, that will be such a hassle :). Anyway, I love being a mom it is the absolute best thing. However, I do not want to look like a have kids! And for awhile now I think the fact that I am a mom was all to apparent to everyone! I think my new hair cut/color takes away a little bit of the mommyness from my look. Now I just need to lose this extra 30 lbs of baby weight and I will be good to go :)!
I was going to wait and shock Josh but I decided to post it on the blog so he could get a sneak peek! Josh says that if I ever decided to divorce him, he will find out from a blog post :)! This is a safer bet anyway. This way Josh can think about what he is going to say BEFORE he says it. And I am going to make an effort not to read into what he says.

A Post For My SNL!

As most of you know I am a huge advocate of "wearing" babies. I love my Maya Wrap. In the how to video it shows how to carry two babies. My sister in law Jessica* and I were talking about it. I thought I should give it a try. In case you are wondering, it is not comfortable (50 + lbs of babies strapped to me) and I can not move my arms.
Here you go Jess- 2 babies in slings! I could have been in the baby Carl video**!

*** *my snl and i have the same name! how crazy is that! we also have other things in common: we are both very tall 5 10 and 5 11, we worked in hospitals until we quit to stay home, we had baby boys within three weeks of each other, and we have brown eyes (i am 97% sure of that) and brown hair (sorry to ruin the illusion, i color my hair, for those of you who thought i was a natural blond:)).

**the baby carl video is a must see, it is supremely funny!

***i cut my face out on purpose, it was hideous! i set the timer on my camera and took the pic all by myself!!!!!!!!!

Guice Rolling Over!

Guice rolled over the first time awhile ago, put has only rolled over sporadically. Until now! He is rolling over all of the time and so fast! He is growing up so fast!

*i finally learned to upload just to blogger yippee!

Emery Jai Singing!


How cute! I love how instead of lay down his sweet head she says take a nap! Emery Jai usually sings allot more but I think she is camera shy!

Guyboo sugars!



He is so ticklish!We are so lucky, E.J. was also a happy and good baby (she is making up for the good part now:).
If you listen closely you can hear Emery Jai and my Mom singing in the background.

Pics From The Last Couple Of Days....

Daddy hanging out with the kiddos! So cute!

So tired! A failed attempt at getting Guice to take a bottle of breast milk. Josh & I went to the movies on Christmas Eve we thought we could go for a little date, we were wrong. Guice would not take a bottle for anything he gaged and pushed it away. He went with us to the movie, to our surprise Aunt Mimi and family were there. They held him for most of the time. He was a very good boy at the movies!
On Christmas morning Josh & I sing We Wish You A Merry Christmas to Emery Jai as soon as she wakes up. This year she was in no mood! She covered up with her blanket as we started singing!
Emery Jai & Guyboo!

A little sweeter!
Emery Jai in her Christmas P.J.s!
Eating at Cracker Barrel!



Family Tradition!

As part of our Christmas, Josh and I eat at New China. We have done it every Christmas. It is so fun to remember the past years and talk about how much things have changed! Last Christmas the main topic was if we were having a boy or girl. I knew it was a boy but I could not convince Josh without an ultrasound! Our 2nd Christmas I was hoping the food put me in labor, I ate every spicy thing I could! Chinese food at Christmas is a quirky tradition but it is ours and we love it!

Emery Jai loving her ice cream! Josh!

Guice in his highchair! Mommy & Emery Jai!
