More Seattle Pictures

Selina enjoyed spending time with Grandma and Grandpa.


Selina loved having full attention of everyone in the house. Here is aunt Tami reading her a book.


Selina wanted to "exercise" a lot! She spent a lot of time bossing Grandpa around telling him "sit down" constantly and making him play with the blocks and toys with her. Thanks for being such a good sport Grandpa!

White Christmas

We had a wonderful time in Seattle this Christmas. It was great to be able to visit Jeff's parents and spend Christmas with them for the first time since we have been married. It snowed most of the time and finally started to melt the day before we flew home.




The back deck on Christmas Day



Selina's "Santa Pile". I thought that Selina would love the dress up things that Santa brought her, but she preferred playing with the toy cars from her stocking.


Selina came down with a cold the day after we got to Seattle, and was very grumpy for most of the Christmas festivities.



Selina was quite attached to Grandpa Erekson the whole trip!

News

I have recently been working on getting some of my products ready to sell. A friend of mine from high school started up a website, createdbymom.com, where moms can post things for sell. So I decided to give it a try and put up some of my creations. Right now you can see my toddler duvet covers and my tree wall art, but I am planning to add things one step at a time.

Great Day

We had a fun-filled, busy Saturday. We woke up and went to a nearby flea market, where we took our time window shopping at all of the booths. There was a wide range of things, from hand-made crafts to antiques to just plain junk. We were even able to visit with Santa. After the flea market, I headed to Hobby Lobby and Ikea (two of my favorite stores) with my friend Shanna (who also happens to live next door). Shanna and I were able to escape during nap time and enjoy a leisurely shopping trip, without chasing 2 two year olds around, it was GREAT! Tonight we went to our ward's Christmas party, where we enjoyed a yummy dinner and had fun with the other ward members. Who could ask for more, really? A day of shopping and having dinner cooked for you, what a great day!


Selina started crying when we tried to sit her on Santa's lap, so Santa told Jeff to sit on his lap with Selina. These are the moments I am glad I have a camera phone!



We watched Andrew tonight so he came along with us to the Christmas party. Selina and Andrew love playing together. They were playing Ring Around the Rosies here.

Everyone in our ward thought they were so cute as they walked around the gym holding hands.

Selina's room!

I finished Selina's room! I had a lot of fun putting everything together. It has actually been mostly done for a few weeks now, I have just been waiting to get the big "S". I had to special order it from the store because apparently "S" is a very popular letter! One project down.

I just took a quiz and found out I belong in 1956, HA!

You Belong in 1956

You're fun loving, romantic, and more than a little innocent. See you at the drive in!

What Year Do You Belong In?

Thanksgiving

We had a great time going to Jake and Maren's house for Thanksgiving. Maren and Jake prepared a beautiful turkey, and we all brought sides to share. The evening was ended at their friends house with a pie EXTRAVAGANZA and a fun game of "Worst Case Scenario". I brought my camera, but unfortunately only took two pictures.





The girls had their own table but only sat there for the first 2 minutes or so of dinner.
