Gardening Bug

2010-04-08T23:05:00.000-07:00

I too have got the gardening bug!

Helpful Tip:

to get your starts ready

Thanks to Melissa, the fridge trick worked!

So...i put seeds in a baggy with a paper towel and whetted it, Then set it on the fridge.

2-3 days later they were sprouting, now 1 week later.....

Yikes!

some baggies are 2 inches high.

and of course i put way too many seeds in the bags thinking"this probably won't work"

W0W i was wrong!

hope this Tip helps you this spring time

Happy Planting!

So i guess i have alot of updating to do. Many things have happened in our family from birthday's to birth's to more birthday's.

Malik Finally turned 1.

And it seemed like the very next day he just seemed so much more grown up to me.

He is walking and trying to talk.

His laugh is contagious.

He is now going to sleep on his own and i love that.

His Molar's are all coming in at once so you can imagine, he's a little cranky and clingy.

He Just LOVES his sister, he gives her kisses and hugs every night!

Nadia,

She is sooo Grown up!

It scares me sometimes when she acts more like a 13 year old than a 3 year old.

She is so Smart and Stubborn, i don't know where she gets it ;)

She has this bond with Rachelle that is unbreakable believe me i've tried!

These past few months valista had a baby and my Grandpa Smith had a Birthday! Here is a picture of all the grandkids on the Smith Side, some had never met before this day! And if you look real hard you can see the New baby Shawn in trevor's arms.

I really wanted to get a picture of Malik sleeping and finally did! So Sweet!

Here we are for Halloween. If you can't figure it out, I am the ScareCrow, Nadia's the wicked witch, Malik's the Lion, and Pat's the Yellow Brick Road!

And YES, i made my costume! i know i'm good!

on a sad note we had some Deaths in our family. Our chickens Started Laying Eggs, we are getting about 5 a day, and a Coyote Halled off 2 of our chickens, one of the Twins, and Cinnimon. who was also a twin.

we have been talking about death in our family alot to Nadia so she would understand that the chicken was not coming back,

One day she said, "mommy i want a dog! But not a dog that Barks"

I told her that all dogs Bark,

She said," But not a dead dog" i said "no not a dead dog"

she said, " I want a DEAD dog"

i didn't know whether to laugh or cry so i said, " but if the dog was dead then you couldn't play with or feed it and that would be no fun"

she said OK what about a CAT!

LOL!~

First thing in the morning I asked Nadia

"What would you like for Breakfast?"

she replied,

PANCAKES!

I had to make them extra special

so i added a smiley face made of chocolate chips.

and a whole bowl of mixed Fruit on the side

Her favorite!

Her first Party started off at Grammy's House

Where she had the whole back yard decorated in balloons & Disney Princesses.

One of her gift's she got from her aunt Cherrise.

It was a Tangerine that unrolled and it turned into a Cat!

Here she was with ther baby that talks and makes all kinds of noises when you press it's hands

and feet.

I like to take Nadia's Pictures especially when it is an important mile stone.

This is on Sunday Afternoon, Father's Day.

We Celebrated her birthday along with all the father's in my family celebrating father's day!

Nadia, I hope you had a Wonderful Birthday!

An Ah-Ha, Oh No Minute!

2008-01-14T16:23:00.000-08:00

Has this ever happened to you?
Your going about your day doing your normal routine or schedule and you have one of those pivotal moments when suddenly you realize you have turned into your MOTHER!
Well it just so happens i just did.
apparently i have inherited my mothers frugality. For a year or two i have been saving old Shampoo bottles, propped upside down so that one day i could empty all that i couldn't get out before into one bottle. as i was using my finger as a Spatula inside the bottle as not to waste a thing it HIT me I AM MY MOTHER! now i think to my self was saving those bottles for all those years really worth a quarter of a bottle in shampoo. I'm still not sure! maybe if you have some in site that might help me to change my deppressionistic ways? i guess being like my Mother isn't all that bad!

Happy Late New Year

2008-01-03T22:18:00.000-08:00

I thought i would tell how we kicked off the new year! monday morning we got ready to go to Sequim to the Olympic Game Farm with the Rest of the Family. we got off to a bumpy start but we eventually got in and it was Very exciting. Nadia had alot of fun chasing around Beautiful peacocks. Our car was attacked by many many birds. but it was great fun. it was the best way to feed birds and not get pooped on... after that we were Litterally Attacked by Yaks, who new they could be so aggressive. they would stick their heads in the car as we would feed them bread. They asked us not to stop because they get in front of your car and box you in. after that we saw the Llamas, Zebras, and the Rhino. Then it was off to the Bears. We saw Elk, Raindeer, Lions and tigers, and who could forget the Buffalo, they also Attacked our car and they were HUGE, Oh! buddy, They also tried to stick their heads in the car but their heads were to big.... and Finally Nadia got to pet the horses through the window of the car. Later that day we had a pot luck at my Parents house, we watched movies and played games and tried to keep Nadia up as long as we could but she only lasted till 11:00p. finally Midnight rooled around and we all had different time on our clocks so we said happy New Year 3-4 times. then finally kissed our loved ones. everyone quickly went home to put their kids to bed.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Surgery Nightmares

2007-12-15T12:35:00.000-08:00

Ok so, I have had to have surgery again. The second time in 2 months. I am still recovering and this time is alot harder and more painfull.
Well, in October i had my gall-Bladder removed and this time the doctors think they may have miss diagnosed me and they should have taken out my appendix. so thats what they took out. I got to have a cat scan, that was pretty cool.But it was also scarry. i started crying before they put my in cause i was scared of the results. my doctor told my i could either have an appendicitis or crohns disease the doctor said to hope for an appendicitis, he said, it's a quick fix and we will take you to surgery immediatly. and if it is crohns than it would be something that i would have to live with for the rest of my life. and although there alot of modern medicines that could help me with crohns. it can be a hard disease to overcome.

About crohn's
Crohn's disease causes inflammation of the digestive system. It is one of a group of diseases called inflammatory bowel disease. The disease can affect any area from the mouth to the anus. It often affects the lower part of the small intestine called the ileum.
Crohn's disease seems to run in some families. It can occur in people of all age groups but is most often diagnosed in young adults. Common symptoms are pain in the abdomen and diarrhea. Bleeding from the rectum, weight loss, joint pain, skin problems and fever may also occur. Children with the disease may have growth problems. Other problems can include intestinal blockage and malnutrition.
Treatment may include medicines, nutrition supplements, surgery or a combination of these options. Some people have long periods of remission, when they are free of symptoms.

Well a will update later when i am feeling better.

Pat loves to fly fish, we just had to camp on the river, easy access.
Daddy and Nadia on our hike.
Nadia didn't like the fact that we were watching her eat sand.

I had to take a picture before i asked her to stop eating it.

But she didn't listen of course, and she didn't like it once it was in her mouth, she eventually gagged and threw up a little.
Like The Tent?

This Year We Decided to Splurge and Buy a New Tent. with our growing family we new that it would be put to good use.

Here she is eating sand agian and she gagged some more then threw up.

Seaside vacation

2007-08-09T22:56:00.000-07:00

Saturday the 4th we travelled to Seaside Or. and i was hoping to have pictures to show you but i doubt i have any good ones. well, first of all we had a few road blocks. so Friday Nadia got sick with a high fever, we decided to go anyways thinking that it would get better but it didn't, it went on for days. the weather was to say the least over cast and nadia didn't want to leave the resort. she just wanted to sleep and be held.cant blame her though so there are two reasons why i don't have pictures. so tuesday i thought nadia was feeling better so we were headed out to go to the aquarium before we left to go home and on our way out the door i noticed she had a really bad rash on her back, so we checked the rest of her and it was all over her stomach, then i noticed it on her nose and forehead. so we decided not to go to the aquarium. and just decided to go home. but before we got home we had friends to visit in Vancouver so we stopped there for dinner,we were going to stay the night but after all that we had been through we decided we had just better go home and take Nadia to the doctors as soon as possible. so we made it home at around 1:30 wednesday morning. so we took nadia to the doctor, he said she has the 3 day measles which is most non threatening and most common kind that kids get and that there is nothing that you can do but let it runs it's coarse. he also said the she would have a fever for about 3 days and a rash for 3 days and that was exactly like what had happened. she is much better now. her rash is barely noticable. well that was our vacation, i hope our next one will be alittle more enjoyable for all. if i have any pics i try to get them up for all to see.

Pat's been busy selling Paintball stuff and working. the other day we all went outside to take Nadia's 11 month pictures they turned out soooo cute i'll let you see them and say it for yourself she had alot off fun and i sprayed her off with the hose to get the bubbles off. well i guess that's about it a whole lot of nothin!

2007-04-26T00:34:00.000-07:00

Sorry i dont have any pictures to go with the writing, but this is for Melissa.
Nadia is crawling up the stairs. we had to go to Wal-mart and buy a Baby gate.
She has started throwing fits where she will throw herself on the floor and start grunting and flopping around and when she notices that we don't give her any pity she stops and sits up and wants to play again. after the shower episode i accidently left the bathroom door open and the toilet seat happened to be up, well you can guess what i found. she had pulled herself up and had her hand in the water and was splashing the water, YUK! i was totally grossed out.
i have been working for Nathan for about a month now. it's really nice cause i can work from home. Pat has an online business selling paintball gear.he ahs a web-site if anyone wanted to check it out. his prices are alittle cheaper for compitition purposes.
www.20BPSPAINTBALL.com ,.we finally got high speed internet so downloading won't take as long. hopefully with my new job i can upgrade my lens on my camera, after all our bills are payed of course. i'd also like to put a large chunk of money in savings for a downpayment on a house. well some day!
