Lathamites: February 2010
http://lathamites.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 1, 2010. I moved the desk into the basement. It's helping with my internet addiction, I think. I haven't been on the computer in so long! I check my email about once a day instead of 50 times. And the house might be just a titch cleaner. And without seeing all the fabric that I can buy online, my bank account is a bit healthier too. We'll see how long this lasts :). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Loralee's Ideas 'n' Stuff. Mom and Dad L. Uncle Mark and Aunt Bonnie. Aunt Marlys and Uncle Del.

Lathamites: February 2011

Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Can't get enough Pink! Dave is doomed. I, on the other hand, am in heaven. I should start making a list of all the things I want to make for this little chica before she gets here. Do I want to attempt another round of baby bedding? Cuz these are pretty distressed. Hopefully a new coat of paint will do the trick. I've finally been feeling better! The girls finally started some activities! I feel like I'm being a good mom! I also FINALLY started them in piano lessons!

Lathamites: Emma's Birthday
http://lathamites.blogspot.com/2011/08/emmas-birthday.html
Thursday, August 18, 2011. Emma turned 7 and wanted a superhero party! And I've decided that the girls can have "bigger" parties until they're 8 (just to keep things fair), then nothing until 12 and 16. It's hard work to throw a party, and even harder when you've got neighborhood friends, church friends and school friends and can't even include friends from beyond that scope b/c it gets to be too many people! But she had a blast. And who am I kidding? Concentrating hard on superhero bingo :).

Lathamites: 4th of July
http://lathamites.blogspot.com/2011/08/4th-of-july.html
Thursday, August 18, 2011. Great 4th of July this year! I grew up surrounded by my extended family and every holiday we would have a ballgame in the morning, then swimming and BBQ in the afternoon. Those memories are some of the sweetest for me, and it's been hard not being able to do the same thing with my girls. Seriously, can I just have a pool in my backyard so I can do this? But the best part? They made some previously illegal fireworks legal this year, and they did not disappoint! I love creating m...

Lathamites: June 2010
http://lathamites.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 27, 2010. I live vicariously through my girls. I am fully willing to admit it. At least it's things they already want to do. I'm just happy to oblige them. Saturday, June 26, 2010. Yep, completely out on this one too. I did an impromtu birthday party for Emma with a "flower" theme-turned out okay. Nothing to rave about. I need to step it up with the party thing. :). Emma had her end of the year "Kindergarten Sing" which was pretty cute. She loved the "Apples and Bananas" song that gets s...

Lathamites: January 2010

Friday, January 15, 2010. Happy Anniversary to us! It's been nine LOOOONG years. Just kidding. They've flown by. Last week was our anniversary and not only did we get to go out that night BY OURSELVES, we were also treated the next night to a Jazz game. Two nights in a row with a baby-sitter (my sweet sister Kimmy). We were in heaven. And Dave came home with flowers and this card. Why yes, I DO laugh every day of my life. Thursday, January 7, 2010. Warning-lots of words and pictures :). December started ...

Lathamites: July 2010
http://lathamites.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 12, 2010. Beautiful Message to Mothers. I've always felt like everyone else is a better mother than I am (and no, this isn't a search for a "whatever, you're a GREAT mom! And with the women who want to stay home but have to work to make ends meet. I know that no two mothers have the same circumstances or personalities, but I do spend a good portion of my time feeling guilty that I'm not as successful as I can be as a mother. That's why we are meant to be MOTHERS! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Lathamites: September 2010
http://lathamites.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 30, 2010. Funny things kids say. But, just for journaling sake, here are the few things I had written down that Emma said when she was about 2 or 3:. When pretending to play a trumpet (I'm guessing that was Little Einsteins era): "Mom, I'm horning! Calling the sacrament "soccer mints". Closing her prayer one time with "In the name of Christmas jammies, amen.". Telling me to be happy and smile, and when I gave her a fake smile she said, "no mommy, smile with your eyes! And here's a rec...

Friday, January 28, 2011. I have a lot of random pictures of funny things that don't really fit into a big blog post, so here's the catch-all blog post. There's our little tiny bitty Mari. She's 2 1/2 and the ittiest thing you'll ever see. Notice how the dress-ups are still huge on top of her clothes? The girls were so proud of dressing her up and she was so happy to be a part of the "big" girls! I wouldn't help Bree make a fort so she took matters into her own hands. Her creativity is impressive. Then i...
