You're not dreaming... we really did update the blog!

I've decided that blogging is much like laundry... if you don't do it daily you will be become overwhelmed with how much you have to do to "catch up" and once you think you've done it all, there is always one last load/post to do.

Welcome to the world's longest post.
I'll try to include a lot of pictures so that I don't loose your attention.

I'm so sorry that it has been such a long time since our last real post (I'm not counting Andy's B-day one). We've been SOO busy... being sick as usual. I'm really looking forward to summer. More for the fact that flu season will be behind us and we can move on with our lives. I'm tired of having to replenish my stocks of Motrin, Tylenol and Puffs Plus with lotion. Jennah just finished her latest round of antibiotics on Saturday. I would love to say that we'll make it more than 3 days until she starts her next flu/cold. Seriously... ugh.

Anyways, here's a few pictures, just quickly to update you with what we get around to doing when the meds finally kick in....

The Garage... Before....and After. Ah... BETTER!
Buddy, who's now less of a man... took recovery like a champ...
and even learned how to use his pet door before the stiches came out! He's so stinkin' smart!
Yes, I was nervous about punching a whole into the side of the house.... especially when I started seeing smoke and sparks coming off of the drill. But I figure, my dad does this kinda stuff for a living... I trust him... (as I watched, biting my nails and pacing from the other side of the wall).

March was a fun month. We got free tickets to the Home & Garden show at the fairgrounds. These activities become so much more fun when you actually have a house to go home and work on. It actually motivated us to finish the yard... details are a little further in this post.

We had a great St. Patty's day... green cake and all!Jennah is so sweet. She loves to help with our pets... sharing her snacks. Lucky, spoiled rabbit! Jennah surprised us with the fact that she can get her own shoes on. Although it's an ability that cannot be displayed when it's actually time to go. We're working on getting them on the right foot (laughing). And yes, that's a bruise on her head. Her and Timmy bumped heads at school. Timmy cried, Jennah just paused for a second and then kept on going. That's my girl.

"Campfires" in Poppy & Gawpee's backyard... now that the weather is perfect... not too hot and not too cold! LOVE spring!!
Speaking of spring... it's been a beautiful one in our yard!... a few months ago we planted tulips... and they came up, just in time for Easter! Jennah loved them and neighbors were admiring them. I was proud... and frankly a little shocked. It was just too easy to have such a beautiful yard!Sidewalk Painting...
Jennah was fascinated with a puddle of water left from the sprinklers... 45 minutes later... she was asking for more sprinklers to run to make another puddle...
Mommy and Jennah prints...
Mommy and Jennah pedicures to match....
