BELLA!!!!!

Bella is a Maltipoo and she is the cutest dog EVER!
We love having her so much!! She is such a lover - and that is what we love! She's overall a really well behaved puppy. Of course we are still working on the potty training (fun) but we'll get there.
She is just precious and are so lucky to have gotten her!!




Yep that's a diaper! Getting ready for her plane ride to Georgia!

Hello hello blogger world...

So I know I have been M.I.A when it comes to blogging lately. You can blame it on Facebook, at least that's what I blame it on!
I love me some Facebook. Which is funny because at first I hated it.
I liked Myspace so much better because of the creativity involved in creating a page (which I think FB should have as well) but the Apps on FB outweigh the creative-ness involved on Myspace.
I still get on Myspace here and there...but not nearly as much as the other.

So basically between FB, kids, summer...let's just say that I have had no time or desire to blog about my life..LOL.
But after uploading all my pics yesterday (finally) I was feeling the urge to blog.

Summer has been awesome!
I cannot believe school starts in 3 weeks!!!
But I guess that's life - we all can't be in "Summer" mode forever.
I've got quite a busy year ahead of me, but I am very excited!!!

1. I am gonna be part of 2 committees at church.
2. I am gonna be a "fill-in" troop leader for Kylie's girlscout troop.
3. I am hoping to be "room mom" for Kylie's 1st grade class.
4. I will of course be "mom taxi" - Kylie is signed up for 3 dance classes and 1 gymnastics class.
5. I will be a teacher's aide for Kylie's catechism class at church.
Just to name a few - haha!

We're still debating on putting Josh in preschool. I thought I'd do it more for a break for myself. But since I have made some good friends out here..they help give me a break.
In fact we have a teenage babysitter right on our street!!!! The kids loved her watching them the other day while Jarett and I got to go on a date!!!!!!!
So I am just not sure if I'm ready for the preschool thing or not.
Basically I am in not a huge hurry.
Preschool out here is a pretty big deal! Back in AZ if you put a 2 or 3 year old in preschool it was basically at a daycare. But here they are FULL on preschools with set schedules and all!
The good thing about that I guess is the cost for it isn't all that bad. Josh would be going 2 days a weed from 9am-12pm. So 6 hours a week. We'll see....

Well let me post some pics for those of you who do not have a facebook :-)
