Sometimes that girl!

Whenever Autumn really wants something, she now informs me that "Emelia really wants ________." When I call her out on it, she laughs! She is such a silly little girl. I have noticed that since you left, Autumn hasn't been asking me for coffee. I guess she doesn't like the way I make it. She only wants her daddy's coffee.

Autumn has been walking around taking some pictures. She captured this one:

Told you she was weird!

We are getting some snow. Not much. I should have shoveled this morning, but the girls woke up early and I just cannot do it with them awake and in the house. I'll get it tomorrow or something.

On a more positive note, I'm down 2.8 pounds in one day on that 5 day thing I'm doing. This is what my dinner looked like:

It was pretty tasty. I did cheat a little bit today. I just didn't think I was getting enough calories considering I'm running a minimum of five miles a day and breast feeding Emelia, so I stole some of Emelia's chicken at lunch time today.

Anyway, we are expecting company this evening (D and his mom).

Some pictures of the girls.

Fun with the balloon.

I feel so blessed to have such a happy girl. I keep thinking if they had been born in opposite order, I don't know if I would have been prepared. Emelia is such an easy going little girl. OK, she does have some attitude sometimes!

No telling what badness Miss Autumn is up to. I'm sure you can figure it out. You two operate on the same brain wave length!

Hope things are going well in Nevada.

I love you and miss you bunches.

Your Favorite Wife and Airman. xoxo

At least two lonely girls waiting for their daddy to come home. 2 days.

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.
