Messing with pictures
I've always like photography, but I never did anything with it because I didn't think I had an "artist's eye" and nice camera's/editing programs are expensive! But with some photos I have, Ive used just the editor that comes with my computer to mess around with them. Some turned out really cool (I think), others would be better if I had the nice programs where you can target one part of the picture, not the whole thing. But hey, you work with what ya got! Here are some of my favorites. Some are taken by me, some by Kim

Idea for Memories
Well hello there! How's it going? Are you ready for Easter tomorrow? We are going to color eggs tonight. Hailey ended up with two Easter dresses, so she's wearing one today and her "fancier" of the two she'll wear tomorrow.
So here's my idea. Since we have Disneyland Season passes now....I was thinking of getting Hailey an autograph book. I mean, I know she's too little to care right now, so I wasn't originally going to get her one. But than I noticed that the autographs books are different than they were when I was younger. Now they have a spot to put a photo with the person who's autograph you got. So I was thinking of getting one and (if it doesn't already have it) add the year and get as many as we can in that year with pictures so when she gets older she can look back and see how awesome her childhood was hahahaha. No, but really I thought it would be fun. How does it sound?
Here's a kind of crappy picture of her dress she's wearing today. I'll replace it if I get a better one today...she was in a bad mood this morning (this one is from last night)

Happy Birthday To ME!
Today is Wednesday, April 4th...and my 23rd Birthday! I've never really felt aged by birthday's before, but for some reason I do to this one. I mean, I don't feel OLD but I definetly feel older.
This morning was greeted with an early visit from the UPS man with a package from my momma with a couple shirts and a new blowdryer in it...which is fantastic since my blowdryer is about dead. Than Matt's sister, Michelle, took me to get a pedicure. Than we went and got a smoothie at Starbucks. Tonight Matt is taking me to TGIFridays for dinner and I'm so excited! Also, I think tomorrow night, Matt's mom is taking me to dinner. It's gunna be good fun. So yea! Happy Birthday to me!

End of March/Earth Hour
Can you believe that today is the last day in March? I can't! That also means my birthday is in 5 days...
March has been kind of crazy. I honestly don't remember much of the beginning of it. Than (as you know already) my family came and we had a grand ol time!! And since they've been gone things have been just a blur. Matt's been working to catch up for the time he took off. Hailey had a doctors appointment that she aced...as always hehe. We've all had killer colds. And I've been knocked off my workout/diet routine. I know it's my own fault, but give me a break! There is so much snack food here right now.
Also, today is Earth Hour day. I know most people won't do it. It's considered a pain in the toosh...which I can see, especially if you have a lot of kids. But Earth Hour is when you turn off your lights for an hour starting at 8:30PM. Some major cities do it - turning off all their fancing show lights (of course leaving on the lights needed for security or safety). I remember making Matt do it last year and breastfeeding Hailey with a flashlight.
Even though it is a pain, I encourage you to do it. Play a game with flashlights or tell scary/funny stories. Light some candles and pretend to camp out. Be creative :)
Looking forward to April!

Family Vacation
Mathew, being the wonderful man that he is, saved money to give me the best birthday present ever (given it was an early present). He flew my sister and her girls out to visit me. They have never been here before and it was awesome to be able to help them get a couple new firsts in their lives. Also, my parents came to join in the fun and surprised me also, so it was like a big family reunion! We finally got a new family picture taken. The last one that officially had us ALL in it was when Sadie and Jaxson were little. I think it was their first Christmas. We also took new family pictures for everyone, we even took a photo with just us girls and the boys.
We had a busy week! First we went to the Aquarium, than we had two days at Disneyland, and we slipped in a trip to Venice Beach. We were planning one more thing (either the zoo or Matt's aunt's cabin in Lake Arrowhead), but we were all tired and getting sick so we just had a cozy lazy day. Man was the house crowded than haha - but it was awesome!
Now, everyone has gone home.....even though Kimberly left some stuff here hahaha....and now it is way to quiet. I woke up after Kim had left and came downstairs and just sat in the silence. It was very sad. I mean, I like my private time too, but I love having family around.
Between two cameras, we took a ton of pictures. I picked some that I liked and put them on Facebook....so instead of posting a ton on here too, I'm just going to give a link to the Facebook Album and you can go check them out!

Want to go Shopping?!
Isn't that just sad? Yet another pair of jeans ripped. Now why do my jeans seem to rip quickly. I really don't understand the phrase "hard on clothes" all I do is wear them haha :)
Anyway, as of right now a ton of my clothes are on their way out. They are either getting holes, stretched out from me wearing them pregnant, or both. I'm always hesitant to buy clothes because I want to lose weight first so I don't have to buy more again. But I think I'm going to have to get some to hold me over. Especially now that it's getting warmer. I have two decent short sleeve shirts and one pair of jeans.
I LOVE shopping, but man does it usually take a hit on my self esteem. I have a gift card to this store that is kind of like Hollister Co. in the fact that all of their clothes are sooo small. Their size medium would be a small everywhere else. So I can never find anything there. I did buy a hat from there though haha.
So, anyone wanna go shopping with me?! I think it's fun to just try on random things...you'd be surprised what ends up looking good on you :)
