The danger zone.

Image
The danger zone as defined by me. The area immeditately around Emelia or within her reach. I fixed Autumn's lunch today and handed it to her. She walked into the living room, sat her bowl down and asked me for something. I was in the process of fixing Emelia's lunch and my lunch. Autumn walks back into the living room and cries out, "Oh no. Emelia is eating it." I walk in and discover Emelia with Autumn's bowl. I was stunned because Emelia was still in her carseat, but managed to get ahold of Autumn's bowl. I told Autumn, let that be a lesson to you. Emelia made a giant mess of that meal. I had to put her in the kitchen floor to get her cleaned up. She acts as though we are starving her! I miss you Sean James Jordan. Autumn says she loves you. Your favorite wife and airman. xoxo 3 days without you.

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 Eme...

Girls will be girls.

Autumn was so confused about yesterday. "Mommy, is daddy jumping out of the airplane?" Even though I tried to explain that you got on a plane and went away to work, she thinks you are jumping out of the plane and expects to see you. When we got done at the gym today, she saw the Jeep out front and said daddy is here. I suppose a few more days will go by and she will get it. I bought the portable DVD player last night, charged it up and it has been running every since! Autumn loves that she can watch a movie in the car. I think it will be wonderful to have on our great big airplane ride next week. Can you believe that is next week. I must be out of my ever loving mind to travel so far with two little people. I'm so excited to see everyone though and have a great big birthday bash for Autumn. OK, I don't have any pictures to share right now. I'll see if I cannot snap some off after nap time so that you can see your beautiful little girls. OK took some pictu...

We're Moving!

Not right now, but eventually! Sean and I found out this week a few of our options and let me just say we should be heading to warmer weather. Once we know something for sure, we will let you know! It has been a while since I posted last, so I have some hodge podge of pictures to share with you today. Please enjoy. A trip to the zoo in Alaska during winter looks like this. I think the zoo is even more fun in the winter than during the summer. Isn't it pretty? There were two cats out there. Autumn was pretty excited about it. Talking about tigers. Emelia had a pretty good view from the back pack. I know it looks cold, but it was actually quite warm that day. Could have lived without the wind, but you take what you get sometimes. It is hard to believe she will be 3 soon. On the other hand, she is starting to look so grown up. Not too old to hold her daddy's hand though. Now for some silly, random pictures. That is Emelia's elephant on Autumn's head. Both girls li...

New Year's Eve

We had a blast this New Year. It was in the mid 30's outside, so it made the outside festivities very pleasant. We had Sean here with us too that made everything perfect. I cannot imagine my life any different. Before I get to my NYE pictures.... Emelia helping Autumn take a bath. Do you see the devilish smirk on her face? Then in a moments notice, she almost went in!! ha ha ha Back to NYE. We headed down to the JC Penny parking garage to find a good parking spot, then headed to the mall for a minute while we waited for Jenny and her kids. Cherish and Emelia. Autumn got "dinner" and there is that smirk on Emelia's face again. What do you suppose she is up to? I want some ice cream! My three people. It was brought to my attention recently that there hasn't been a lot of Roww sightings, so here we go! Cats like ice cream too. There were fire tossers. Autumn thought that was pretty cool. There were mammoth ice sculptures. I thought that was pretty cool. Interp...
