Better Get Bloggin'

Well I just looked at my blog and realized it's been quite awhile since my last post. We have been doing tons of yard work. It's hard to tell by the looks of our still pathetic looking yard but we have been working hard. Here is a few pictures of our weed infested garden. Yes The weeds are taller then little Olivia. It took Cody an entire Saturday to get them all pulled and the garden ready for planting. Of course we haven't actually planted anything yet but I think that's on the to-do-list this weekend. Hopefully pumpkins and raspberries.





What can I say about my daughter? She has entered the terrible 2 stage of life. There are some days when I think I can't handle another temper tantrum. Then there are days like today. She can always tell when I'm not feeling too happy. It's like she senses it and goes out of her way to make me smile. I pushed her around the house on her bus and she giggled so hard I thought she was going to pass out. When she stopped laughing she jumped into my lap and said, "thanks mom!" If that can't put a smile on my face then there is something wrong. I love her dearly even when she acts like a 2 year old. She grows more everyday I swear. She's starting to sound so much like a little girl. Her new favorite word is "weewacker" (weedwacker) which she says anytime she hears a lawn mower. She also likes to say, "How you doin'?" but before you answer she quickly replies, "Good." I could go on and on and on and on. Being a mom is hard work but what could be more fulfilling?
