o.k., o.k., o.k....

Let's see...

I guess I last left off.. Delaney's 4th birthday was coming up. Well, it came and passed. We had a "pet show", the woman brought a (eh..hemm... 3-LEGGED) BLUE TONGUE SKINK (lizard), A hairless guinea pig, a chinchilla, a bearded dragon (lizard), a ferret, a tortoise, and a RAT! Every kid in the house was completely engaged for the whole hour! Here are some of my favorite pictures:


Here is the BALLOON BOUQUET I "tried" making




All the girls before the party:








one of my favorites.. Delaney and her GAL PAL Abbie (with the hairless guinea pig):






Keelyn and the chinchilla




So... after the birthday celebration.. came EASTER... the Easter Bunny was quite LAZY this year.. no egg hunt.. just small baskets with chocolates. I guess going out to a breast cancer benefit the night before .. wasn't such a good idea. Grampi and Jean came up here and cooked up a fantastic meal. YUMMMMMY lamb! Here is a sweet pic of Delaney and Grampi






and a great one of Keelyn and Addy






Lastly, the girls all getting their Easter treat from Grampi and Jean... White CHOCOLATE truffle bunnies!!!!




After a little too much SUGAR!!!







Love this one of Ry and Addy







Last weekend we once again enjoyed ANOTHER weekend NIGHT OUT.. and joined our great friends for a fun night at YOU YOU's in Nashua for Vadim's annual b-day dinner:

Here's some of the "innocent" photos!









GOOD TIMES .... GOOD FRIENDS... LOTS OF LAUGHS!!!

here are 2 more pictures that I really love... RY






and this sweet sweet picture Delaney painted in school.. makes me smile every time I look at it... she's so proud she put a "frame" around it :-)





that brings us up to .. this week! Keelyn just got her costume for her HIP HOP recital this coming June... check her out: (she LOVE LOVE LOVES it!!!)





Lastly... Keelyn is working very hard on her recital.. once the video up uploaded on YouTube, I'll post it... a portion of her dance.. MAKE SURE YOU CLICK ON THE LITTLE "HQ" button below the word YOU TUBE IN the video.. it will make it MUCH clearer!!





Oh did I MENTION JACK CAME DOWN WITH SHINGLES???????????????????????????????? so I took Addy for her 18 month physical.. the dr. said she and Delaney can't get it, because they have been vaccinated against it.. BUT, Keelyn and Ryley could get chicken pox since they had only one vaccine and there have been cases of kids in the 6-10 year old range getting chicken pox even with the vaccine they received at age 1 (They just recently came out with a 2nd vaccine at age 4)!!! ugh.. we'll have to wait 2 weeks to see if they get it!!?!?!? Can you imagine?? I'll be posting a Chicken Pox party on Craigslist if that's the case :-)
