March Sunshine

The girls have been playing outside for about 2 hours!! They are having so much fun, it is finally not so bitter cold out so they can stay out for a while. Since I last blogged, we have celebrated Maddi's 6th birthday!! She is growing up so fast, she is such a sweet girl and tender hearted (I don't know where she gets that from) We have also started renovating our house, so far we have been able to replace the back door and put laminate wood flooring in the kitchen and dining room. It looks awesome!! The painting has started and we also have gotten a new railing in the inside, no more wrought iron, we now have a very sturdy wooden railing that I totally love!! The girls are having a blast watching all of this going on!! Buddy is not so happy as he is confined to the bathroom on the days we are working on stuff. Tom is having surgery on Friday March 5 for his hernia, I think I married an old man :) He will be off from work for at least 2 weeks maybe 3. Please pray for quick healing and patience for me!!

I will keep you updated (hopefully)

I'm BACK!!!!

It has been far too long since I have updated. Maddi is in Kindergarten and loves it. She goes every morning from 9 - 12. Mo loves the Mommy time she gets now that Mad is at school. Her favorite place to go is "hobby wobby" (mom likes it too :)) We have a new addition to our family, his name is "Buddy" and he is a Lasoapso Chitsu mix (obviously I don't know how to spell that) the girls love him and take great care of him. I will try to be better about blogging from now on.

Katie & Dan's Wedding

I love the look on Mo's face, what a sweetheart

Mo was kinda antsy, and it was really windy

Walking down, Mad was kinda shy

Doesn't she look Beautiful!

Katie sewed the flowers on the shirts for the girls, they love them

It was really a fun day for all of us, the girls felt very comfortable with everyone and just adored Katie. Everything was beautiful, Katie thought of everything, they even had their own name cards, Maddi Mazeikis and Mo Mo Mazeikis, I thought that was really cute

Backyard BBQ/Mo's Party

She ate the frosting off of 3 cupcakes

Mo, singing along & swinging with the card
from the "Grandma next door" it played the
three little fishies song.


We had Mo's bbq Sunday night, and it was a great time. We ended up having about 50 people show up. I can hardly believe that that many people showed, we just planned it Monday! The backyard looked great, we finally have a decent yard to party in, Tom and I and some friends worked in it all week, we painted the fence, fixed the fence and did some lanscaping, it was an exhausting week thats for sure, but very rewarding.

Mo's Birthday

Morgan turned 3 today!! She helped Maddi & I decorate her cake, her only disappointment in the day was that she still has to ride in her little girl car seat, she doesn't get a big girl seat yet.

Maddi went away with Tom for the weekend and they went to the Toledo Zoo, this is a pretty cool picture of her.

We have Grass!!

So you all know that we are not the greenest lawn on our street, this year in an attempt to actually catch up with the Jones' we have seeded our dirt spots in our lawn. We did this a week ago today, and Monday I was stressing out because we couldn't see any grass growing, today I looked and there is a green haze over our dirt spots, IT is GROWING!!! I am super happy, Tom told me that if this didn't work then we are tearing out the whole lawn and having dirt:( I would not put it pass him either. Other news, I seem the be the only sister in our family not pregnant, so I will focus on getting skinnier while they all get fat:) No, I am not getting the itch, I just am not looking forward to vacation with the family, as I sit there counting points, and they all eat whatever they want, I will live vicariously through them all. Weight Watchers is going very good for me, I have lost 9.2 lbs (aproximately) in the last 3 weeks, and am not even starving!! I am about a quarter of the way to my goal (don't try doing the math, yes I am fat, but not for long) If I keep going at this pace, I will reach my goal in like 3 1/2 months, just in time to not be the fat mom with the cute flower girls at our neighbors wedding. Anyway, I am going to enjoy this summer finally not being super self-concious(sp?) in my bathing suit and training to run that 5K in October. Love you all, Ta Ta for now

New Pet

The girls have been playing outside now for about 2 hours, the last hour or so they have been playing with their new pet worm. They named it very appropriately, first it was Mrs. Worm and now it is Wormy. This is a great pet, it keeps them entertained, but neither one of them will touch it with their bare hands, they pick it up with sticks. Mo tried to touch it but was afraid it would bite her (I'm not sure where the mouth is on those things, but who would take the chance) and Maddi said it was slimey so that ruined all chance of Mo touching it again.
