Black Thumb

For Valentine's Day Shaun was such a sweetheart and brought me home these beautiful tulips. He got me a live plant because we didn't bring up a vase, even though he knew that it was a bad idea to get me a living plant. Well, sadly they didn't even last a week. I watered them and gave them sunlight, but alas they are dead and gone. I have never been able to keep a plant alive for very long. I really hope that someday we don't have to survive on our own garden because we will die. If that day ever comes, I am living with one of you.
Here is the sad picture of my dead flowers, they were really pretty for a few days.

Here is one of Janalee with piggy-tails. Isn't she cute!! She was eating lunch when I took this picture so excuse the peanut butter and jelly all over her face. hehe

Piston's game

One of the doctor's Shaun works with has season tickets to the Pistons and he gave us his tickets for last nights game. We had a lot of fun! I doubt if we will ever get tickets like that again. We were really close to the court, which was nice, but also we got to go to this buffet lounge. Before the game you have an all you can eat dinner with meats and pasta dishes and pizza and fruits and veggies, the food was really good. Then, during half time you came back and they had a dessert buffet, yummy! You could take the food down to the court with you as well. We didn't stay because it was late, but after the game they had more food. It was crazy nice up there. Shaun said there were even little mini TV's above the urinals in the men's bathroom. Us gals weren't so lucky to have a TV in ours though, sad. Anyway, it was tons of fun and we stuffed ourselves! We tried to soak it all in because we most likely won't get the chance to have that nice of seats again, but it is definitely worth doing. (especially since it was free for us) It was a pretty close game, good food, and we accually got to go on a real date!
Here we are!

Look how close we are to the court!

Shaun wanted to make sure I got a shot with the cheerleaders in it, weirdo guy! haha

Baby Dolls

Janalee loves her baby dolls. I never encouraged her to play with them, but they are some of her favorite toys. I think it is something ingrained into her genes, haha. She loves to carry them around with her and push them in the baby stroller. One of her baby dolls Aunt Brooke gave her for Christmas and it came with a carrying backpack so she loves to carry her around in that. Isn't she so cute. I am hoping that because she likes baby dolls so much that she is going to love her little brother so we won't have too much sibling rivalry. I'm thinking positively, haha.

Dance Party

Janalee loves to have music on and "dance". She mostly does this bobby type dance, but she has started spinning around in circles too, it is so cute. I was trying to catch the spinning on tape, but of course she didn't want to do that while I was filming. She is still pretty funny though.

This was from when we were still in Mesa, Janalee was about 6 months old. We were living in this great little duplex at the time and I thought it would be fun for Janalee to have a little swimming time. She liked to sit in the water there, but mostly she just liked to chew on the little blow-up rings that the pool came with.

I tag: Tiffany and Aaron, Brooke, Maureen, Kristen and Adam, Heather Martin (I can't remember your new last name, sorry), and miss Marie

Fun times with daddy

There hasn't been a whole lot going on up here so I haven't had anything to post about. I took this video today of Shaun playing with Janalee. It is really funny to see her trying to walk when she is dizzy. It is kind of long, but we think it is really funny. She thinks it is tons of fun. She is such a cute girl, we are very blessed. Today was the nicest day we have had this whole year. It got all the way up to 50 degrees. Woo hoo!!! I think the high is going to be over freezing all week, that is very exciting. I can't wait for winter to be over with!
