phone dump

preparing for the new carpet.  i can't imagine going through a kitchen remodel.  

i don't even know how he got back here behind the upright couch.

my old classroom. it looks nothing the same! i imagine this is the feeling that people get when they go into their old house when someone new is living in it.  

bentley helped me move stuff from under our bed to the basement to help dj before he disassembled the bed. 

"Diah, are we best friends?"

Jed and Remi hung out before bible study

that date is coming so soon!

i can't wait for free workouts on saturday--right down the street at our community center!

stuck

my weekend project

lunch with kerri over her break!

helping aunt kerri with a sign

reading the paper 

Bentley's work

i'm eating at Jayz cafe while the boys play on the ground

he loves to play with paper!

here was my reminder card almost a year ago to go to my check up.  i had contractions during the appointment and gave birth about 12 hours later. 

not needed! (i found both of these cards in a purse that i clearly have not used since jed was born)

playing with a scrap from the carpet

i saw him waving as he was standing at the top of our stairs.  then i realized that he found himself in the mirror.

some of my loot from the MOPS Swap

i won the giveaway at MOPS that morning too!

he had to take his nap in the living room

we hung out at Nicole's house so we wouldn't be in the way of the carpet people.  it's officially installed now. hooray! it's awesome!

sad

i was walking up the stairs and jed was crawling towards me.  i thought that it was so cute, so i restarted him so that i could get a picture of him. he didn't like it.

family pictures

way back at thanksgiving, celine took our family pictures. i used one of the pictures for our christmas card, and i wanted to keep the pictures a secret until people got their cards. and then i never posted them! so here they are:
