Taken This Past Wed - 17th Feb 2010 !!!
These were some pics taken quickly before I left for work and Dave took the girls off to church for Ash Wednesday, they both had the same skirts on and Jade wanted me to take some pictures.
As you can tell still battling the neck issue with Amber, one day good one day bad ... hopefully the crawling etc. will just make it all stronger and it won't be a problem anymore.
My flash didn't go off for this one so it's not great but it was such a cute picture.
Sisters exchanging kisses :-)
I love this one, so layed back and relaxed don't you think ?
Jade will be mad if she sees I have cropped her out of this picture but it wasn't a good one of her (hehehe).
Shame sometimes Jade just gets so in Ambers face and lies all over her, Amber gets frustrated and pushes her away and it really upsets Jade or hurts her feelings ... I am sure there will be a lot of that in years to come.
Amber on the crawl, you cannot take your eyes off her a second and she is gone, she makes a B line for the door but keeps turning around to see if you are watching or coming after her and if you get up she puts her head down and crawls faster, very cute.
Jade regressing and crawling along side her, Amber thinks this is funny :-)
That's it for now, have a good weekend.

Second Snowfall For The Year ... Wow !!!
Well I wasn't going to do another update quiet so soon but we had some more snow last night so had to quickly add a picture or two.
We hardly had warning about this snow fall compared to the one two or so weeks ago so it my my girlfriend Pams 40th birthday on Thursday so us girls planned on going out for dinner and a movie, I was to leave the house at 5pm and the snow was due to start at 5pm but normally well ... we just don't even get the snow, or it's very little or it starts much later when we are asleep so what do you think happened last night ... yep it started to snow at 5pm, and when I say it started to snow, snow more at one time than I had ever seen before but still I ventured out coz Pam said ... nah it won't be much.
So I parked my car at the movie theatre and Pam collected me there so we could go shopping together after which the rest of the ladies were going to meet us at the movies well ... when we came out of the undercover parking at Southpark well, it was wet, slushy and the road were bad, cars were driving at like 10 - 20 miles an hour, kinda scary for me to see coz I had never experienced this before but Pam being from up North she was ok with it all and I felt safe with her, thanks Pam :-)
Anyway we couldn't even get to where we had planned to have dinner, the roads were so bad and traffic was so slow and the rest of the ladies had called to say they were not venturing out, it was too dangerous so Pam and I just had dinner somewhere close to where the movies were and where I was parked and then after that decided after seeing 3 odd inches of snow on my car, that maybe we should just skip the movie. Thankfully wise Pam had told me to back into my parking spot and to leave my windshield wipers up so it was quite easy to clear my windshield all while being thrown with snowballs by Pam :-) and then I got going on my trip home. It was like 10pm and the roads were quiet and those still out were driving very slowly, me especially coz I was scared to death but thankfully I made it home safe, what an experience. It was so pretty out, I am glad I was out to see it but man I think next time, when it snows like that, I think I would rather be cozy at home, I am still trying to get rid of my headache from the stress of the ice on the roads ...
A picture of our front yard and neighbors.
It was so pretty out back this morning, last time there was just ice on all the branches out back, that too is obviously very pretty but this was like a winter wonderland, what a pretty site to wake up to :-)
This was some of our front yard that Dave took when he was outside.
Mom I can't see a thing this snow is so bright (hehehe).
I dressed Amber up warm and got Dave to take her out for a quick picture, she was all snug like a bug in a rug :-) Poor thing is having bad neck problems again, you can see it in this picture.
Last but not least, today Dave and I were lucky enough to have Colleen come over and watch the kids for a couple of hours while him and I went out for a nice lunch and a movie, we ate at Olive Garden which I love but man him and I thank God both ate garlic coz geez do we stink (hehehe), then we went to see Avatar at the IMAX definitely not my kind of movie but it was a have to see movie I think and I thoroughly enjoyed it ... can't believe some dude dreamt that all up, I need whatever he is on so I can have dreams like that too ... wow. Tomorrow we will have Colleens kids so she and her hubby can go out and do the same, it was a nice treat, thanks Colleen.
Ok well tomorrow is Valentines Day ... who knows maybe you will get more pics then, not sure let's wait and see ok. Hope you all have a good day.

Pictures Taken By Ruth Anne Ritter !!!
Ok get ready for a marathon of pictures taken by Ruth Anne Ritter. Ruth Anne is a teenager that I work with at Church At Charlotte, what an awesome kid, anyway she loves photography and has such a good eye for it, she took picture at Jades birthday party if you remember but these pictures were taken especially since Ruth Anne and her dad will be travelling to Haiti the first week of March and what she was doing is spending an hour with you and your family taking pictures for a small donation which she will be taking to Haiti with her and putting to good use, I think that is so great, what a big heart :-) We were just glad we could help her in this small way and get some good pics to show for it ... what a bonus.
I love the black and white ones.
She wore the red outfit coz we were trying to do some Valentines pics :-)
I have always known Jade to have pretty blue eyes but these pics really make her eyes pop, wow !!!
My treehugger girl :-)
I think this is my favorite, it is such a natural pic of her, I love it !!!
For some reason this looks like it was taken at the beach, don't you think ?
Finally some of Amber but don't get too excited there aren't too many coz she cried from beginning to end, you know at home she is such a smiley child but put her in front on anyone elses camera and she totally freaks out. She screamed so much I am surprised we actually got some of her, ok in 99 % of the pics you can see her teary eyes but still.
Also it was so cold outside and they were in short sleeves that I am surprised it didn't scare the cry out of her (hehehe), if you get what I am saying.
I totally love the black and white ones.
Awe look how blotchy her face is from all the crying ... poor thing or is it the roadmaps from being cold :-(
Definitely one of my favorites !!!
Love it !!!
Don't cry Amber, I am right here ... some sisterly love !!!
This carriage will never be the same after my big baby sat in it ... I was so worried she sould topple over but she was happy in there and well while she was happy I was not going to mess with that :-)
Cute !!!
Definitely one of my favorites :-) Love this !!!
\
Oh gosh ... my girls are growing up ... Love them so much !!!
Last but not least ... this is just super cute. Thank you so much Ruth Anne, I love them all and am definitely going to do more pics with you when Amber turns 1 which is not long.
Wow I am done and that took me forever !!! You won't hear from me for a while I need a break after that but hopefully there is enough pics there to keep you going for a while. Hey maybe if there is more snow, who knows but no promises.
Happy Valentines Day.
