BRET'S ANGRY DANCE! Dont forget to pause my music list...

I'm STILL here!

I have neglected our blog long enough! I'm always thinking that theres something else I should be doing rather than hopping on the computer! I'm so bad at keeping this thing updated!
Well, the Holiday is quickly approaching and I'm still trying to get a Christmas card put together (once again another computer project) and I'm still trying to finish editing photos from a wedding I shot Thanksgiving weekend.....(computer)! I've got to get a move on here!The kids are doing great! Cash is just doing so great! Sleeping and eating well and giving us thee cutest smiles every time! Sophia is quite excited for Santa to come this year. She has been watching the Tim Allen "Santa Claus" movies and can't wait to leave him some milk and cookies! When she see's the reindeer fly through the sky with Santas sleigh she comments "Santas giving presents to boys and girls.........he's so sweet". Spencer and I always tell her that Cash is "so sweet", so I think she's starting to put that phrase into all of her sentences now. She cracks us up every day, just a week ago she walked in the bathroom, stood on the scale and said "Umm, 40 pounds". Then when you ask her what time it is, she tells you its "40 o'clock", I think she has a thing for the number 40.Spencers shifts have all been extended an hour cause of the holidays, he's at work for 10 hour days. It will be nice to have him home for 3 straight days when Christmas gets here!
I've recently hopped back on at gap part time. I can't believe I worked there for 5 years before I quit and now I'm back. I only work Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I just wanted a chance to do some "grown up interacting" once in a while. Spencer was so supportive of me doing something for me, and this is what I wanted to do. So I'm loving getting my hands into some fun visual merchandising and seeing those markdowns! :)Now that the basement is done, I had the treat of going out for my birthday to shop for all my wall decor. SO EXCITED! I have a family picture collage wall and a wall of clocks! Yes thank you Jen Coberly for the sweet clock collage idea. I ran it by Spencer and he loved it!It's going to be bittersweet at Christmas this year! Especially for Sophi.....her fun Uncle Brett and Aunt Jessica are leaving this friday before Christmas to head back to school. I don't think she quite understands that they're leaving for quite a while. She loves them so much and talks about them at least once a day. We're really going to miss you guys, its been so much fun to have family in town for awhile, I dont know how we'll do without you now! We love you!The bright side for Christmas is that we've got Courtney and Jordan coming!!! Finally an upside to this previous downer! When we talk to Sophia about somebody visiting for Christmas, she knows just exactly who! "Courtney and Jordan got married!" she tells us. When Spencer put on his suit jacket for church yesterday, she asked him "Dad are you gunna get married?" I think since its been summer and Spencer only wore his suitcoat to weddings......now thats its winter and he throws it on, Sophia thinks he's headed to a wedding!

Hope your all having a good start to the Holiday! Heres a pic from the wedding I did!

TAKE THIS "TWILIGHT" QUIZ.......YOU KNOW YOU WANNA!

Here's whats new!

Other than balancing the art of motherhood with 2 children now, here's what I've been up to. In the last couple of weeks I did a senior picture shoot. Cammie is an exchange student from Belgium and will be here in Nebraska until December. It was a fun shoot! We also did some fun shots with her friend Tina from Germany also an exchange student.

Cash had his 6 week check up this last week. Hes now 10 pounds 13.5 ounces. and growing like crazy. He took his 3 shots like a champ, and hopefully we wont be in to see the doctor until Jan for his 3 month check up. In the last week or so Cash has also been quite the entertainment for mom and dad. We now the have the technique of making him smile down to an art, with the baby talking and tickeling his chin. What a dreamboat!

Sophia had a BLAST at what we told her was a "pumpkin party" a few weeks ago. It was a fun petting zoo and pumpkin patch all ready for the Fall holiday. We dressed her up as a cowgirl before we left.
Spencer is still hard at work at Best Buy, and putting the finishing touches on our newly finished basement. We (Sophia especially) have been enjoying it for weeks now. Sophia asks everyone who visits, "Wanna see my basement?" Shes quite excited about her new play place and moms quite fond of the high noise level that has moved from upstairs to downstairs.

I am starting to get a little more rest through the night now, Cash will sleep for 6 hours at times. Its bliss let me tell you. Right now I'm trying to keep up on my scrapbooking but I'm starting to realize why digital scrapbooking is becoming so much more popular. I think its going to become much more popular with ME too.....soon!

Here I couldnt resist putting him is Sophias baby doll stroller. Ha ha!

TAG....your it!

So through my blog stalking I noticed a fun tag and decided to jump on the wagon and make my first tag to my blogging sister in laws! (Jennie, Megan, Mary and Courtney) Here's how it goes:

Go to your 4th picture file,

Post the 4th picture in that file, explain and

Tag 4 people!

Simple, yet FUN! Here's mine.

After coming home from church one Sunday, I pulled Sophias church clothes off and let her run around the house in her diaper while I fixed some quick lunch and grabbed her some comfy clothes. While I was busy, she located my church shoes that I had kicked off and walked around the house with them and her sippy cup. She feels pretty important putting on mommys shoes.

I finally had some down time to post some pictures from Sophi's birthday party and Cash's arrival. We're all doing great! Thanks to everyone for your support and excitement with our newest little one!
