New Look

Woops!! loaded the pictures after I typed oh well scroll down to read the my little ramblings.

Hello everyone!! So how do you like my new header? I hope you all know how much I love reading all your blogs and seeing all the fun pictures, it makes my day.

Well today I have another photo shoot. It is of a family of 4 with a newborn baby. I am excited I haven't done newborns in such a long time.

Yesterday I had the chance to finish up a couple more scrapbook pages. I also entered one of my pages in a digital scrapbook contest awhile ago and won 2nd place, pretty cool. It is so addicting!!

Last night was Casey' first night on nights (tongue twister) LOL. I must say I am not too much of a fan. I hate sleeping by myself but he likes it a lot better than days. He says it is so much slower and gives him a chance to relax from the crazy day shift which he was on for almost 5 months.

Well, HI-HO-HI its of to housework I go.

Love, Eilisa

Madison almost crawling

Spaghetti Day

A couple days ago we decided to have spaghetti day. I just boiled a bowl of spaghetti noodles and let Maddy have her way with them. She had so much fun with it. She played with them close to an hour. I read in a magazine that it helps with her cognitive skills not only that but what a cute picture moment it created too! She is at such a fun age. She is getting more active and can now play with me. We read books and love to sing all day she will sing along I will have to record her once you can so tell she is trying to sing.





Look at these pants aren't they so cute. They are my favorite!!! I love babies in blue jeans I think it is the cutest. And check out that hiney, so so so cute!!!

Just Playing

So today has been quit relaxing. I was able to do some scrapbooking. I love scrapbooking it is so fun for me, kind of weird I know but it's like a little vacation.
I also had time to take some pictures of my baby. I don't have many naked pictures (which I love) so I snapped a couple today. She was so tired as you can tell in that piano one but I still love it.
Casey has a three day weekend this week before he goes on nights so I am going to try to convince him to go travel. He is not much a traveler and I am a baby and hate traveling by myself. So we will see how my begging works.
Jenn I followed your example and cut my hand too. I swear it must be a family thing. Mine wasn't as bad as yours but I still fill a bit of your pain. I did it with a can lid. I know I am a weirdo.
So it won't be long until Madison is crawling she is now scooting but only scoots backwards. Today she got stuck under the couch it was so funny.
Well I guess I better go clean the house, this is so much more fun but I guess you got to do what you got to do.

Busy

Hello, Every one!!! Long time not chat. Well life has been a little crazy here. I opened my business a couple weeks ago and have focusing on that. I never realized how much work it would be but once the people get their pictures and are happy with them it is all worth it.
Madison is getting so big she just turned 7 months, don't you worry I took pictures he he. I also got a new lens and I love it these pictures were taken with it and I didn't have to do any editing.

My wonderful husband surprised me with a new wedding ring for our anniversary (well early anniversary gift). He is the best. I love it so much. My first one was causing my finger to crack and bleed not good.

Well I think that is all for now. Have a wonderful day!!!

Play group

Every Wed. Maddy and I go to play group. It is a bunch of my friends that all have kids almost exactly Madison's age. Most of us were in a Pregnancy class together. It is a lot of fun. Madison loves it and I am pretty found of it myself. It helps me get out and stay active. Here are just a coouple of her baby friends.







Our neighbor Karen, who is a great friend! comes down and hangs out with us too which also helps me from getting too homesick. Maddy loves her but the only problem is when she is holding Maddy her sweet girl, Hailey gets Jealous. Aren't they so cute. Hailey is a little over a year old. Need to go Maddy is not feeling well.

Such a slacker

I am such a slacker and have not kept up on my postings.
Lets see... Easter. Our Easter was good. It is always hard being away from family on Holidays but other than that it was good. Casey's friend Scott spent Easter with us. He was injured down range and was sent to the Hospital right by our house. We were glade we were so close so we could help out. We had Easter dinner with our neighbors upstairs, they are so sweet!
Not only was it Easter it was also the day Madison turned 6 months old. I can't believe she is 1/2 of a year old. Time has flown by.
It snowed on Easter just like it is snowing right now. I though Utah had crazy weather but Germany is right up there. 2 days ago it was in the low 70's now it is snowing. Crazy, Crazy!!
Well that is all for now. Easter Morning!
