Waking up to Moose.

By -
This morning when I woke up, I headed downstairs and began turning on lights and opening the curtains. When I opened the living room curtain, I saw a gigantic moose in the backyard. There was not enough light to tell if it was a male or female, but judging by the size, I would venture to say it was a male.

Autumn and I headed over to the gym for a run and some playtime.

Thinking about being bad.
Now can't you tell that she is getting ready to grab those cups that do not belong to her. She looked back to me to make sure I was watching her.

Jail bird.
Autumn in kid jail.

Can I get a hand.
Autumn and Dylan. Dylan is looking at me like what on earth is Autumn doing!

After the gym, we went to lunch with Cindy and Dylan and had some Mexican food. I went home and put my little thumb sucker to bed.

Thumb sucker
She took a three hour nap today (which is out of the ordinary-she usually does a two hour nap).

While Autumn was napping I finished up my last chapter in my Anatomy class. I will take the final this weekend. Once Autumn woke from her nap, I collected a bunch of her clothes to send to Sarah (my sister) for Jordan, who is 8 weeks old now.

Donation
That is going to cost an arm and a leg to ship!

Autumn and I went to Old Navy and I picked up a few things for myself. I am going to get Autumn ready for bed now. I wish you were here.

Your Favorite wife and airman. xoxo

Day two.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
