Thursday boring day!

ANGEL BABY- lots of sleeping has been going on lately- Sugarbean makes me exhausted- and thankfully Ems is agreeable to the idea~ Jason did VERY well on his mini so even he got to join us today- hooray!

Weirdy Wednesday!

As a congratulations for my pregnancy~ my friend Danielle gave me a pack of Skittles! Emmy immediately fell in love and promptly ate most of them.
One got stepped on and here is Emmy licking if off of our floor- I know I should have stopped her-

but I decided to photograph it instead- we needed a Weirdy Wednesday right- and again- desperate times call for desperate measures :)

Our very LAST Beach Bash!!!

after the mini- doesn't J look tired?
we partaaaayed!

and we swam
and Dominica celebrated with us!
and a rainbow even made an apperance...
Emmy lost her mind she was laughing so hard at Daddy jumping.

Seriously- what a cute little girl!

A new family picture of course!


Yes, here is this weeks family picture :) (Emmy's baby even made it into the bottom one :)

Oh, Dominica!

I thought this was a neat pic- I never noticed that all three of these flags were there.
this pic is dedicated to Amber- doesn't this rock look just like a turtle?

just beautiful

the cutest baby lizard in the world
"the fishermans' beach" as I have named it- be glad that you can't smell it- it does a have a charming look about it though doesn't it!
I really should save this for Weirdy Wednesday- but- I'm sure something new and weird will occur before then... this is the hole in the sidewalk where the very first Sunday there was a dead goat- yes- like it had gotten stuck and strangled itself- I can't walk over this hole without seeing it's blank wide eyes and horrible foaming mouth~ I'm sorry- but it's another memory that HAD to be documented.
calm

the view from the front of our house- Who could ask for anything more?

Playgroup at the Berg's!

Coloring with friends~
THE cutest hug ever- I'm convinced of it!

Just a little moment captured :)

Emmy and Matix both decided that they were exhausted and needed a cuddle/nap- it was even more darling in person...

Pregnant 4 weeks~1 month with Sugarbean

things I am loving about this pregnancy:
~no sickness yet
~the test showed up so fast and strong
~I've been working out and walking so it will (hopefully) be easy to keep that going
~it's fun to imagine names, gender and looks
~my hair is the color of a copper penny- not planned but cute until my roots grow in

Weirdy Wednesday...

Lately, Emmy has had some rough moments in the stroller~happily, today she was a delight in her stroller...

FRIENDS!

Ems and Caleb- he kept putting his head on her shoulder- so cute.
YAY! look at this group- I love it!


Everything about this picture makes me happy- Kelly and I were talking about how people who have NOT lived in Dominica might be judging us right now- BUT if you were here, you would understand that desperate times call for desperate measures...
Shane's aggression face= it's great. I didn't capture Emmy's but it looks about the same :)
I love that in this one he is hanging over the edge trying to understand why on earth Emmy is acting like this! ha!
I love both of their faces here- so funny.
and we not could have a friend post without Matix- he is so nice to Emmy and that always makes us happy!

Emmy's first PRINCESS PAAAAARTAAAAY!!!

Before we left Emmy just had to wear her princess shoes around the house :)
walking up the stairs with Daddy...

I love this one- they are all doing their own thing.
adorable-
Mass craziness! Paige did such a great job :)0
Lucy's birthday was a GREAT time.
Emmy even got a crown, necklace AND wand~ seriously?!
Emmy and her cute 4 year old friend Lucy- I'm so sad because when we met Lu she was still in her 2's. Jason, Emmy and I love our little Lucy Goosey and will miss her terribly-the GREAT news is that they are from St. George- so we will be forever friends- this makes me so so happy!

ANNOUNCEMENT!

Yes, it's true! A new Frederick is on the way :) Hoooray!!! Due in early February... everyone start your prayers!

You know you are in Dominica when...

there is an ice cream VAN named Mr. Whippy,
mothers balance buckets of laundry on their heads while walking home with their naked children,
the drivethru is on the wrong side and/or there are cows in that drivethru,
and last but not least~ almost EVERY soda is broken- oh Dominica!

Shoes!



Emmy's favorite thing in the world right now = SHOES. Any shoe... a stranger's shoes, my shoes, Dad's shoes, friend's shoes~ any shoe.
