2009-05-27T11:13:00.000-05:00

Look at her!!

2009-03-28T07:24:00.000-05:00

That smile has not gone away!! She is almost 5
and I am just looking through photos.

Some Halloween pics, late!

2008-11-19T16:52:00.000-06:00

The cousins trick or treating together. What fun they had on
such a beautiful night!

Just being silly!

I just loved this photo. They just looked so darn cute
waiting for the person to answer the door.

Our little Nadia! She is getting so big already!

Last XC meet Oct 1

2008-10-01T21:32:00.000-05:00

Madison, Aunt Angie, India and Jackson after the race!
Thanks for cheering!

Grandma and Jackson, he get the big thumbs up!

I see the look in his eyes. This was after I cheered
for him, he went ahead and passed this other runner!
He ended up passing 3 guys right at the end! It was a fun
season. He is already looking forward to next year. He told
me that he wants to train with me during the summer! I hope
I can keep up!

Just some fun pics!

2008-09-16T19:28:00.000-05:00

There is something about this picture, I still see her little baby face!
She is getting so old so fast all of a sudden, so I just want to embrace
this one!

These two silly boys. Amani and his Grandpa are just goofy!

Fun pics from Labor Day Weekend

2008-09-08T12:20:00.000-05:00

From all of Uncle Kirk's noses that he has taken in the past,
this is what Savannah has ended up with. I guess she still looks cute!

They love their Auntie Lolo!!

These girls are so goofy with Uncle Kirk!

Jackson's first Cross Country Meet

2008-09-07T21:50:00.000-05:00

He was so cute during the meet, everytime he
would see us, he would wave and then kick it
up a knotch.

This boy was so proud of himself. He ran
1.5 miles and received 70th place out of
around 90. He was just enjoying himself
and he can't wait until the next meet in a week
and a half. Great job Jackson!

First day of school- Sad Olivia

2008-08-25T21:01:00.000-05:00

Well, the two kids that were going to school
were very excited and the little one was until she
realized that she was not going to school today,
the tears then rolled. Poor girl was going to really
be missing her brother and sister. She couldn't even
look up for the pics she was so sad! Don't worry, she was
able to go swimming today when the other kids couldn't.

First Day of School 2008-09

2008-08-25T20:45:00.000-05:00

Everything went very smoothly this morning.
If it could just go that way every morning!! We
were even ahead of schedule. Savannah was very
excited!! Jackson was just excited to see his friends.

The Dells with the Fischers!!!

2008-07-31T12:43:00.000-05:00

We actually got another family photo, it had to be quick and
Phil had to hold Zander in there!! Thanks Phil!

These two are such buds! I love it! Jackson and India!

Here are all 10 watching and waiting to see who actually got to
do the Go-Karting. I think they all went except Livi and Zach.

Isn't this beautiful? This is what we got to look at while we
were racing!!

Fun in the Dells

2008-07-31T12:29:00.000-05:00

I think she went down this slide 100 times!!

Zachary and Lisa having fun in the pool!

What form Jackson!!

Chicken fight!!! India and Jackson had at it! I won't tell you
who won!!

10 cousins

2008-07-31T12:20:00.000-05:00

This was a quick shot, but we got them!

Catching frogs at Ang and Loren's. They were so busy!!

Checking out their finds!

Savannah, GA

2008-07-24T20:12:00.000-05:00

We really had a great time exploring the city of Savannah as well as
being able to talk to one another again without anyone interrupting.
We just had fun enjoying meals together when we wanted and walking
a lot, without anyone whining about it. It really was a beautiful place!

Our Trip to Savannah, GA

2008-07-24T19:54:00.000-05:00

Our hotel: The Mansion on Forsythe Park it was beautiful
with art work all over the hallways and sculptures in the garden
and the hallways.

Our room, see the tub in the middle, it was so nice!

Just another view of the room. This was taken in a convex mirror that
was in our room. John is trying to plan our next move for the night!

After looking through my pics on my camera, I realized that
we didn't really have any of just the two of us. This was taken in
the lobby of the hotel just before we got into the taxi to the airport.
I tried to get it so it wasn't so blurry.

More Savannah, GA

2008-07-24T19:43:00.000-05:00

This was a great little pub that we went to the
last night of our stay. The Six Pence, apparently it was
in the movie, "Something to Talk About" with Julia Roberts.

SAvannah, GA

This is one of the only pics of John and I!!

Loved the doors and the gates!

Savannah, GA (cont)

2008-07-24T19:27:00.000-05:00

Thought this was quite funny, Savannah loved it!!

Wish I had a courtyard like this!! I was enjoying
looking through all of the rod iron gates!

Baby Nadia

2008-07-13T11:43:00.001-05:00

Savannah was so thrilled to meet her new little
cousin. Nadia was born on Friday, July 11, 2008
at 8:35 am. We got to see her at 1:30pm, only
5 hours old. She is beautiful and I can't wait to
see her again. Way to go Aleisha!!!
Savannah was so cute, she just could wait to get her
hands on her and before we left, she said, "Mom,
she has the cutest little nose!" Unfortunately we didn't
get to see her eyes yet, but I am sure that we will see her
quite a bit! A couple nights earlier, I had told Savannah that
Nadia was probably going to be here soon, so she stayed up until
1130 at night making cards for Amani, Aunt Aleisha, and Nadia.
The next night she made one for Uncle Jonathan.
It was very sweet, she worked very hard. Can't wait to see Nadia
and Amani again.

Aunt Mary's boating and swimming

2008-07-11T08:39:00.000-05:00

Amani was ready to go, as long as Grandpa was there!

Olivia and Bella just really enjoyed the pool,
the only time they were out of the water that
day was when they were actually on the boat
and taking a small break to eat!! Little water
bugs!

2008-07-11T08:36:00.000-05:00

Savannah and Emily ready for the ride!

This is my son, he always has those goggles on.

Fun At the Zoo!!!

2008-06-27T09:58:00.000-05:00

Yesturday we went to the zoo with Angie, Maddie, Kennedy, and
India and had a good hot day for it. The kids were just so happy
to see each other. Some wore the wrong shoes, so there were
sore feet, but they loved going through the "misting" water to
cool off and get their minds off their feet. Some of the animals
were busy and some were just relaxed because of the heat, I'm
sure. It was a nice day! Thanks girls!!

HAPPY 9TH B-DAY JACKSON

2008-06-23T22:51:00.000-05:00

Look at our big guy. We had a very relaxing day
today. He requested m&m pancakes for breakfast
with sausage, he was busy playing with some Legos
in his room. Lunch he wanted buttered noodles, like the
ones from Noodles, he says I make them better.
For dinner tonight we made, make your own pizzas
and had angel food cake with banana pudding and
bananas. We had my parents and our neighbors over to
celebrate. He genuinely seemed like he had a nice day!

I just can't believe that 9 years ago today this little guy was
born. The years really do go by fast! I still remember the first
day we had him in our room in the hospital, he cried all night until
he fell asleep on John's chest. From that day we knew that life with
children wasn't always going to be easy and to always expect
the unexpected. We have no complaints though and are very proud of
our Jackson. He just keeps working hard and always has more surprises
for us!!!!

Fun at the Dells

2008-06-22T20:44:00.001-05:00

Having fun in the pool.

Savannah and my cuz Scott, she really adores him.

This was one of the few pics I got of Jackson,
he was so busy in the pool, I could hardly find him.

Kalahari Family Reunion 2008

2008-06-22T20:33:00.001-05:00

We stayed in these really beautiful condos at the Kalahari.
It was a great gathering and lots of fun to see the family.

10 years!!!!

2008-06-15T00:30:00.000-05:00

Last night we enjoyed a night out to celebrate our
10 years together! We went to three different places
and actually stayed out until midnight!!! WE are really
getting older! This was taken at Alterra's while we were
drinking our Espresso to get us through the rest of the night.
It was a beautiful night to be outside.
I think that John was
getting ready to give me bunny ears, or something like that!!
WE are really looking forward to our trip in July to Savannah,
GA, to really celebrate.

Some cool sky shots!

2008-06-15T00:24:00.000-05:00

The waterfall downtown

2008-06-15T00:23:00.000-05:00

WEll, at least this used to be the waterfall, there is no
longer a fall to the water. This was last Sunday night.
WE haven't been down there this week yet, hopefully it
looks a lot better.

The Zoo

2008-06-15T00:18:00.002-05:00

Last Friday the kids and I went to the zoo
for a nice afternoon, we did get stuck in the rain
a little, but it was a very nice day spent with
the kids!!

This is the path we walked on with
David and Marcie not that long ago!!

My cute little soon to be 1st grader!!!!

2008-05-28T23:12:00.000-05:00

Savannah had the biggest smile on her face
all day long!! She is so proud of herself, as we are as well!

My ballerinas

2008-05-28T23:10:00.000-05:00

I actually caught Olivia mid jump. I just love my XTi!

Savannah was so good at following the instructor

There is not much cuter than a bunch of 3
and 4 year olds in little leotards with their ballet shoes.
Livi is the one on the right with her back towards us.

My little photographer!!

2008-05-28T22:38:00.000-05:00

It was so fun to watch her taking pictures on
Friday night at the park by the river. I haven't looked at
her camera yet, can't wait to see what she took.

New updates, a little landscaping

2008-05-28T22:34:00.000-05:00

I always forget to take a true before picture, but
this is before we put in all the flowers. Notice the
new bench on the left.

I will take a picture as the flowers really start to bloom,
we put in lots of marigolds and some snap dragons.
A new little shrub and 4 little balls of Sypress around the shrub.
That was really fun and now I appreciate it so much more.
Now, just to get rid of all of the dandilions in our yard!!

This was last Thursday after her Kind. Graduation.
They still had school this week, although she missed
Tues due to a stomach flu. Jackson is suffering as I write.
Tomorrow is the last day of school, a trip to the local skating
place. I am going with all of the children. The K-4th grades go.
Hopefully Jackson will be feeling better, he should be, seeing as this
seems to be a fast bug!!

Nana a Grandpa were here on Sunday and Monday, and hopefully escaped
the sick. We had a grogeous night on Sunday night walking around
the river. The weather was beautiful and so were the surroundings.
A very good day to be alive, at least that was how it made me feel!!

More updates!!!

2008-05-08T21:06:00.000-05:00

Last night we were invited to a Mother-Daughter dinner with my grandma at her church.
It was so nicely done and we were very spoiled with food and just a fun night. My grandpa
even sang, with many of the other men that had served us our meals. A very enjoyable night!

Just three goofy little children playing in the tub one night!

Oh, did I tell you that we have a movie star in our family, her name is SAvannah!!
At least she kind of looks like one in these glasses!

Just another one of our goofy fashion girl!
It is a little scary how she has the pose down just right!
It is a little scary how she has the pose down just right

Updates on our Life!

2008-05-08T21:00:00.000-05:00

Savannah had a ballet recital and did a nice job,
and really enjoyed being on stage! WAIT, are you talking about shy little Savannah,
yes, that is the one!
Just a sweet little one, from my sweet little one!
This was the night John and I got to
go out and listen to a band and have fun!!
Wow, those nights are way to few and far between!
Just one of my fashion plate!! The glasses really made it.
This was before we went to breakfast one day!

Guess Who's 4?

2008-04-03T09:24:00.000-05:00

Happy Late Easter!

2008-03-27T14:07:00.000-05:00

Just thought that I would throw some pics from Easter to enjoy. The kids had a ball and Grandma and Grandpa's house on Sun looking for eggs with money!!! Savannah was the big winner and she is the only one who hasn't spent her winnings yet! Good saver!

2008-03-27T14:02:00.000-05:00

Just some pics from Easter!

HE CAN SEE!!!!!

2008-03-26T22:32:00.000-05:00

Today, we went to get his eyes checked, because we went to Culver's one night for dinner and asked him what flavor shake he wanted, well he couldn't see the flavors, he said they were blurry!! Finally today we got to the eye doctor with Grandma ( thank you!) and sure enough, he is near sighted. I wish I got a picture of him when he first put on his glasses, he was just in awe at how clear everything was! He didn't want to take them off! Now I know why he was sitting 2ft from the tv all of the time. The boy reads just like his dad, so I am not surprized. John said that he thinks he was about his age when he got his first pair of glasses. When he goes back to school, it will be nice for him to see the marker board in the front of the room clearly! He was pretty cute with them today, pretty proud!

Lexi and Lisa's visit

2008-03-17T21:49:00.000-05:00

Look at these two little girls! They had fun playing with the Barbies and the big blue house, so they were busy!

2008-03-17T21:41:00.000-05:00

Wow, look at these two hotties ready to take on the town!! After hair and make up we were ready! Well we did have a great time, thanks Lisa! That is probably to most relaxed I have been in a long time!!! We went to a wedding, then after the wedding ended early, there just happened to be a great band playing upstairs from where the reception was. Unfortunately it ended at 12 and since I never go out, I really didn't know where else to go afterwards. I left with a big "L" on my forehead!!! Next time we are together, I will know where to go!

WI Dells

2008-03-10T21:51:00.000-05:00

Well ,we had a nice weekend two weekends ago. Enjoyed the time in the water park, Livi loved it the most! She didn't want to leave. Savannah's favorite part was winning tickets in the arcade, (she had more than her brother). Jackson loved the arcade and playing in the theme park area and just swimming the deeper pool. None of our kids wanted to go on the bigger slides! Oh well. We enjoyed a very nice dinner on Friday night with some friends. Sat we swam some more and enjoyed the theme park. We ate lunch at Monk's and shopped a little. Then we headed to Cambridge for the night. It was a nice little getaway!

2008-03-10T21:45:00.000-05:00

Well, we attempted to have them all in the same bed, that lasted for about 10 minutes. A very squirmy Livi ended up in our bed that night. She was so squirmy that she was laying upside down and perpendicular. The three of us didn't get much sleep that night.

2008-03-10T21:42:00.000-05:00

Just relaxing in the water!

2008-03-10T21:31:00.000-05:00

The tea cups were a hit at Mt Olympus with the girls! I think Livi rode them 4 times. I got dizzy just watching them!

2008-03-10T21:16:00.000-05:00

Sisters!

2008-03-10T21:14:00.000-05:00

She was a little nervous about going down the little slides, here she was waiting for me to put the camera down so I would hold her hands so she could slide!

My Creative Girl

2008-03-10T21:09:00.000-05:00

Here is one of Livi's latest wardrobe combinations. Lots of layering, takes us back to the 80s when
that was cool. The shoes are even on the wrong feet, just to add to it. Very colorful!

Just an Update!!

2008-02-28T13:53:00.002-06:00

Well, busy here as usual. My class is really taking a lot of my extra time, wait, what is that anyways? At least we are going to be able to take a mini-vacation this weekend to the Dells. WE are really looking forward to some time together as a family. Of course I should be studying this weekend, seeing as I have an exam on Wed next week, but I will find some time and try not to feel too guilty about having fun.

Not too much else here, I have found that Jackson really needs to get to the eye doctor, he couldn't read some of the sign at Culver's the other night and said it was pretty blurry. That is next on my list of things to do! Everything else is ok here. SAvannah and Liv are both in ballet and totally loving it. John has been really enjoying his art when he gets home at night.

I have been enjoying Idol when I can fast forward through the commercials.

Hope all is well with everyone. I will have pictures to come after this weekend. Have a great one!

Sick, Snow and Stress!!!

2008-02-10T13:01:00.001-06:00

Well, what a week! I can't believe that we have had three snow days this year already. We missed two weeks in the beginning of the school year because of the fire in the school, so I am sure that we are really getting behind in days. Poor Jackson was home sick with a really bad cold on Tues, still sick on the snow day and missed Thursday as well. I had to send him on Friday because I had class, so I checked on him at lunch when I picked up Olivia and he looked tired, but ok to stay.
I got a wonderful call on Wed night at 1130 (the night of the snow storm). My work called and said, "Where are you? You are on our schedule!!!" I knew that I wasn't scheduled, it was not on either of my calendar, which I am very good about writing in for obvious reasons. I think that the girl making out the schedule had made a mistake, she appoligized that morning. Well the supervisor that I talked to wasn't very nice about it. the nurse I had talked to that is on our unit had said that they would be fine without me, but the supervisor never said that. I could have just told her that I couldn't come in, but I went in anyways, which screwed up my Thursday for sleep (took me an hour to get home, usually a half hour) and they would have been fine without me. John ended up staying home a half day, since Jackson was home sick and knew that I wouldn't get sleep, thank you, John:)

Everything else has been ok. School is really pretty stressful, but I'll get through it. I have my first exam coming up on Wed. I should be studying right now, but I had to put a new entry on my blog, for fun!!! Anyways, off to work shortly. Hopefully it is a good week, wish me luck on my exam!! Hope all is well with everyone.

2008-02-10T13:01:00.000-06:00

Just a happy little girl!! This was when we went to the pizza place for Amani's birthday!

Toothless Savannah

2008-02-01T00:22:00.000-06:00

Yes, after many days of getting her to play with that tooth that was hanging there by a string, she finally let Grandpa and Mom pull it with the the dental floss. I have no idea how it was even staying in there, but she is proud as can be, the other one is starting right next to it. I wonder what "Nancy" the toothfairy is going to bring tonight. Don't ask about the name, that is John's doing!

Amani's 2

2008-02-01T00:17:00.000-06:00

This was at Stonefire Pizza celebrating Amani's 2nd birthday. The kids all had fun, Liv was a little tired. It was a nice surprise when I picked the kids up from school and headed over there right away. Amani was so excited, they had a train table and water table for him to play in and a great buffet to enjoy, plus, it wasn't very busy at all, since it was the horrible weather night where it dropped 52 degrees in one day.

2006 Dodge Grand Caravan!!!!!!

2008-01-29T13:59:00.000-06:00

Yes, we bought a new van this weekend. Mine was starting to make many noises that I didn't trust and I didn't want to put more money into it. The old one had 163k and little by little, I could tell that things were going, we didn't get very much for it, but thankfully it is gone. We got a 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan with 25k. WE were very pleased with this find. It had all the extras that I really wanted , but wasn't sure that I would get: Stow and Go, DVD, power doors and all the little things. The interior looks similar to our other one, but much, much cleaner. Last Friday when I went to clean out the van, with the thought it may be traded in, I was disgusted when I walked back to the very back seat where the two older ones sit. There were stickers on the back of the seat and many, many crumbs everywhere. It took a long time to just get it picked up. I have set some rules, that I hope will at least stick for about a month: no food, no drink, no crayons, no stickers, and whatever you bring in, goes out. NO FUN!!!! I know that is how it sounds, but I would at least like to keep it as clean as we can for as long as we can. I am really enjoying the power doors and locks. The little things in life!!! I went out and bought some really cheap rugs to put where the kids climb in, to try to keep as much of the salt and dirt off the carpets, for now.

2008-01-29T13:48:00.000-06:00

Livi enjoying her Vanilla Milk as we hang out at Starbucks together. She is my coffee clutch partner. I am so glad there is a brand new one on the route to the kid's school. How dangerous is that? Well, I have been good about not stopping too much. It will be my new study place, unfortunately it is not open past 10pm. It is hard to find a place around here that is open later than that.

2008-01-29T13:35:00.000-06:00

Here is Savannah after her recital. She didn't even take her book up, she did it by memory. Another great job.

2008-01-29T13:33:00.000-06:00

Jackson, after his piano recital. He did a great job, even though he did forget his repeat! But it sounded confident!

2008-01-16T23:24:00.000-06:00

Looking forward to more of this. Can't wait for the hot summer days at the pool!!! I know, I have a long time to wait! Oh well.

2008-01-16T23:22:00.000-06:00

Just another pic that I found. I just love it!

2008-01-16T23:16:00.000-06:00

Just browsing through some old photos and found this one. This was in Sept of 2006. My cute little baby face girl!

2008-01-11T17:13:00.000-06:00

I guess that we are back into winter. Bummer, I thought that spring was here~

2008-01-04T10:43:00.000-06:00

I think in this picture he was working on his 6th Legos project for the day. He was very busy on Christmas Day!!!

2008-01-04T10:42:00.000-06:00

She just can't quit the fingers.

2008-01-04T10:39:00.000-06:00

Savannah and Kit. They look a little alike!!

2008-01-04T10:37:00.000-06:00

Right after I took this picture, they got plowed over by the three going down on the sled!!

2008-01-04T10:36:00.000-06:00

My two little sweeties!

2008-01-04T10:33:00.000-06:00

I just had to blog this pic of John! Isn't he cute? Well, I think so anyways! Just think, 11 years ago on new years eve, we met. I feel like I have know him forever but then again the it doesn't feel like 11 years!

2008-01-04T10:31:00.000-06:00

On New Years Eve we went on a winter walk in one of the nature centers near us. What fun that was finding animal tracks and just enjoying the pretty scenery with all the snow.

2008-01-03T23:31:00.000-06:00

What fun they had sledding down our hill!

Yes, this is the man already starting on one of his Legos!!! I think he first woke up at 2am. he was pretty patient! Savannah was next at about 5am!!! And they had to wake Livi up at 6am! John had told Jackson, if Livi is not awake by 6, you can wake her up. It is 7am and we are going to take a little nap. Luckily I never got called in to work last night! Otherwise they would have had to wait unitl 815 to open gifts!!! That I am sure would have been torture! Merry Christmas to everyone! John and I are going to take a nap!

SWEET!!!! SWEET!!!! That was Savannah as she was opening her camera!! That is what she really wanted! I think that she wants to be like her mom!!!

Well, Livi was the last one to wake up this morning! She is still looking sleepy! But she sure was excited to open her gifts!

Santa!!!

2007-12-18T21:31:00.000-06:00

Since we missed out on the Santa experience in Montello this year due to Jackson's strep and the weather, we waited in line at the mall last night. This guy was pretty cool. Real beard and everything. It was pretty cute.
Savannah did say on the way home tonight, " I am just so excited about Christmas because it is Jesus' birthday, I can't wait!!! It is ok that we get presents, too!"

Washington D.C

2007-12-14T15:15:00.000-06:00

Yes, that was last weekend in Washington D.C.

2007-12-14T15:13:00.000-06:00

Guess where I was last weekend? I thought that I was going to be in Chicago for a shopping weekend, with my mom and good family friend and my mom surprised me with a trip to Washington D.C. I had no clue, until we literally pulled up to baggage and check in at the airport on Friday morning and mom said, "Shannon, we have a plane to catch!" It was such a wonderful surprise. I can't believe that John knew and kept the secret, I was really impressed! My really good friend Maggie lives there, so instead of her coming to Chicago, we went to her!!!! It was great to walk around,( we did a lot of that) and see all of the monuments and just enjoy each others company. We walked around Georgetown and ate a lot of really delicious meals!!! It went way too fast, but it was such a wonderful time to catch up with a great lifetime friend. Thank you!

Jackson's Lego Star Wars

2007-11-05T18:43:00.000-06:00

It took him a while, but he saved up $100 to buy this Legos set. He was so excited to put it together he did it in a couple of hours.

2007-11-05T18:38:00.000-06:00

Jackson with his Star Wars Lego set, all apart and set out to assemble. We thought it would take him a while.

Happy Halloween ( a day late)

2007-11-01T15:56:00.000-05:00

Here they are, last Sat ready for lots of candy and good spooks! We had a great time with Jonathan and Aleisha. That is Aleisha in the front holding the little tiger's hand.

Jackson and his uncle. The two skeletons.

2007-11-01T15:50:00.000-05:00

Trick or treating with Jonathan and Aleisha was fun last Sat. This would be Jonathan dressed as Jack Skelington from Nightmare Before Christmas. Aleisha was a good Sally as well.

2007-11-01T15:48:00.000-05:00

Amani the Tiger!

2007-11-01T15:47:00.000-05:00

Yes, here they are. My Snow White, Skeleton, and a Queen. This was the best pic I got, they were so anxious to get out there and get more candy. We actually went around our neighborhood, we have gone out to Germantown the past few years to go with our cousins, but it didn't work out this year. We have so much candy that I just want to get rid of, I took some to my class today and they loved that. I'll try to find some other good pics.

Our new custom built book shelves

Thank you so much David for making these. It really is beautiful in our downstairs and is so nice. John really loves being able to look at all of his books and I like not having to step over them.
