ID Badges... groan

So my work has started making everyone wear ID badges. At least its a good picture of me... Anyway the lanyards and reels were really ugly (plain dark blue) So I made me own. My tiny cry of Independence. I made a really pretty beaded lanyard necklace, and decorated the reel with a Buddha head bead. Very eclectic looking. I used all wood, glass and stone beads, its in gold and brown colors. I love it!

Gardening with Daddy

Last week Ben and Bekah planted a potato so we can grow more this summer. Bekah was fascinated by the whole process. She wanted to keep putting dirt on the "tato!"



And then it was time to water it. If it'd been warmer Bekah would have been all over that water. She LOVES water and baths so much, this summer ought to be a lot of fun.
When Ben said it was time to put the potato in the window sill to grow, Bekah cried... She wanted to keep planting it! what a funny kid...

Real Princesses ride Motorcycles!

I finally got Bekah to wear Grammy's pretty dress today. She woke up this morning feeling so much better... I made her model.
She wasn't super happy about being forced to look pretty, so she disappeared around the corner of the house...
I went to find her and look what I found. My rough-and-tumble princess... riding her motorcycle. How can she look so cute when she's driving me so crazy? Riding into the sunset... in her princess dress.

The Easter Bunny Came!

This morning we hunted up some easter eggs... Bekah enjoyed the cookies and stickers, and we enjoyed hiding those eggs! She looks really thin since she was sick, makes her look much older than she did a week ago! My big girl!

Four Generations

We had dinner at my mom's house Saturday for Easter. Sadly, Bekah was still recovering from her week long bout with Roseola. She'd been fever free for a day, but still felt sleepy and grumpy. We didn't get to stay long, but we did get a great picture of my Grandma, my mom, my daughter and me. It was very cool!
My mom bought this amazing dress for Bekah, sadly she wouldn't wear it for long. Poor snugs just wanted to go back to bed!
It was a nice meal nonetheless, and it was very nice to be with everybody after a week of being stuck at home!

Wrasslin'

Bekah and Ben got into a wrestling match last week. It was a very close Match. First Bekah pile-drived Ben. It looked like she had him when he started the dreaded "Tickle-monster" attack.
It looked like Bekah might be down for the count, when she finally pinned him to the ground. 10 counts and he was OUT. Ding ding. Bekah is the winner!

Family Pictures

We finally got our family picture done. Yay! We went to the park, it was bright and windy, so its not exactly what I was hoping for. I may do another one soon. But anyway, things are going ok for us. Ben is still looking for another Job. Lowe's isn't working out as well as it had been before... so we're really hoping he finds something soon.
Anyway, not a whole lot to update on. Bekah's getting bigger everyday. She talks so much more now, and forms sentences so well. I love her little voice!
