More pictures of Odessa


We had a great weekend as my parents came to stay with us. as Lily said, they "drove and drove and drove and turned and parked behind Rocket."
Odessa is really crawling now. Forward and everything. With this new freedom, she is also deciding that she should have a say in things concerning herself. We knew it would come some day.
Tomorrow Lily and Ella get a chance to model. I hope they enjoy it!
Here are some of Odessa's latest:

Blue dress
Flowered dress
Flower suit
Green suit
Pink

Sick

Well, the stomach bug finally caught up with us. Lily and Ella had it last night, and I seem to have a mild form of it. We had to cancel Odessa's photo shoot. Fortunately, she hasn't thrown up so far and Bob is well. We hope we're done with it. We are thankful that it is not worse!

More of the everyday



Well, we are working on lots of projects here and I don't have much time to fight with the camera and the computer, so I haven't been adding much here.
Here is one picture, courtesy of Forget me not kids, the other pictures are linked below.
Our projects are centered around selling our home. We have a bit of a drywall project going on in the entryway, and we are working on a few painting projects. We have rented a storage unit, so we have been packing up a lot of stuff. Feels pretty good to cut back on the clutter, but we still have a ways to go. I feels like we aren't getting anything moved some times because as soon as the boxes go to storage, I can see the aftermath; stuff that had to wait for the next box, papers, kids toys all over, drywall dust, etc. But I know stuff is getting done.
I have some more links of Odessa pictures from her second photo shoot. We plan to be going in again Thursday, and have Lily and Ella go in next week some time.

Odessa, supermodel

Here's a link to Odessa's modeling debut. I think she rather enjoyed it.

I'm supposed to choose a favorite picture so they can send me an 8x10. Which do you think?
Also, I'm going to take Lily and Ella in and give them a test shoot to see if they like it. The lady already said she'd start Ella with dresses if that's what she likes :)
I forgot to post something funny before. A few days ago, Bob was doing some questions with the girls and he asked, "Why did God make you and all things?" The answer is supposed to be, "for His own glory." But Ella took poetic liberties and answered, "To SNUGGLE!"

here we go again








now that I've cooled off (and had some help from my husband) I'm going to try posting another picture.
HEY!! IT WORKED!!

So here is Bob's snowman, with the girl's help, of course.
And also, a tea party with grandma. Quite messy, but you can't tell that in the pictures!
I can't figure out how to arrange these the way I want, so I guess it will just be a hodge-podge collection.
The picture of Ella with the things on her feet--That's just one of those Ella Ideas she gets. THe things are rolled up auto shades.

Pictures again

Just a quick test. I'm continually trying to find a less complicated way to get pictures on the blog because usually I have to try really hard not to bash the computer or cry. I guess I'd better go to bed SINCE IT DIDN'T WORK. GRAAAAAAAHHHHHH
