The Master of Sergeants.

By -
Congratulations are in order! Sean found out yesterday that he will be promoted to the rank of Master Sergeant! Sean was so overwhelmed with excitement upon finding out, that he forgot to tell me. I called him while at work to find out if the list had been released and he said, yes. I then asked, was his name on it and very calmly and quietly he said yes.

Master Sergeant
I told him that he now joins the rank of crusty old Master Sergeant. We are guesstimating that he will put his stripes on sometime in January. I'm so proud of Sean for making rank as quickly as he has in the Air Force. Great job Sean, but enough about you, on to our girls.

Our play date from yesterday.

ROWWWWWWWW
This is starting to turn into a joke. We are going to try and take as many random pictures of ROWWW as possible. In 20 years, we will find out just where all in the world ROWWW has been.

The girls had a conversation that went like this: Izzy to Autumn, "You put the berry in your mouth." Izzy sneezed. Autumn to Izzy, "God bless you." These girls were just too cute together.

Izzy going up the tires

Watching Autumn do it
When Autumn got to the top of those tires, she turned around looked down and then be still my heart, jumped through the top tire. That tire is at least four feet off the ground. To my shock, she made it. She clipped her elbow on the side of the tire and when she reached the ground, she stood up, brushed her arm off and said, "Ouch. Hurts." Then started running around and playing again. I love it that Autumn is such a tough girl.

Swinging

Time for some Emelia sweetness.

Sweet girl Emelia

I DO HAVE HAIR!
She does have hair! I hardly ever see the back of my child's head, so I'm always thinking she is bald, but there it is!!!

Smiles

Laughs
She let out a little itty bitty laugh here.

Great Emelia shot
Maybe it is just my job to think this, but I think Emelia is so cute!

Beautiful Emelia Grace
Hope you enjoyed our photos.

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.
