We took Dani to a Veggie Tales concert yesterday. We had amazing seat... 8 rows back and right on the isle. She had SO much fun dancing to the music. I got this one picture in before I got in trouble by a very rude man. Doesn't "no flash photography" mean that you can take pictures with no flash? I sure thought so, but I guess not.
I tried to get her to go stand by her friend Bella (the one with the piggies), but she wouldn't. 
In the "ch" part of cheese. :)For any of you readers who haven't ever been here to visit us but would like to see our home, here it is. Not all the room of course, but some. One site has more pictures than the other... can't remember which though.

We had our first private showing yesterday and have an open house on Sunday. Here's hoping!!!
When I went in to get Dani this morning she said, "Go see Avie Tate?" She was pretty devestated when she realized they're not here anymore. :(
I got to sit and have some coffee this morning while Danica was watching Seseme Street (sem steet) in our bedroom. She came out and asked if I'd go sit with her on the bed and watch Sem Steet. I said not right now. She looked at the t.v., pointed and said, "Cuz watching Oprah?" And yes, I was in fact watching Oprah. Do you suppose she's just really smart, or do you think maybe I watch too much Oprah? I'm gonna go with the smart thing.
Averie is such a good big cousin. Looking on with joy in Danica's happiness. So sweet.
Tate just wants her to hurry up so he can have some cake. ;)
"Oooohhhh!!"
Is Grammy sleeping?
It's her party and she'll cry if she wants to. Tate was pretty ticked that she stole his blankie for this little meltdown.
Playing blocks together.
Danica definitely got over her shyness with Papa. The first thing she said every morning was, "Go see Papa?" She just couldn't get enough... making up for lost time I guess.
Opening presents
Look out for flying daggers!
Dani LOVES the new stroller that Jill and Stef got for her baby.
Dani had quite a stuffy nose and wasn't feeling too great for her party. That's why she's got such a grump-a-lump look on her face in these pictures.
This reminds me so much of a picture of me when I was little that ran in the Bottineau paper.
She's puttin out the vibe.
I know I take a lot of pictures like this, but I just can't help myself... she's so cute!!
The realtors came over today to take pictures of the house. I'm a complete mess, as you could imagine. This is definitely not good for my OCD. The worst part is that I have to keep it this clean every day now until it sells!!! Whoa is me.
Daddy can't go anywhere without his blankie.
What a guy!! Not too many daddy's would humiliate themselves in public for a good picture!
Dude, that's a big pumkin.
She wasn't too sure about the petting zoo... kinda like her mom and didn't want to touch anything.
We had a lot of fun playing with the pumpkins!Anyone under 35 ish should appreciate this. Danica was walking around the house yesterday saying, "What da hizzle?!" We're gonna get her a pimp cup and a diamond grill as soon as we can.

Danica's been showing off her smarts lately. She's walking around counting to ten and kind of above... it goes something like this: "one, two, free, four, five, sis, seben, eight, nine, ten, uuu-teen, uuu-teen, uuu-teen, uuu-teen, ten!" She's also been working on her colors with Daddy, and is getting to know her letters really well too. We have foam sticky letters for her to play with in the bathtub. She knows most of them now and is pretty proud of herself. And we couldn't be more proud of her!
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to Danica,
Happy Birthday to you!
I can't believe my little sweet girl is two years old today. It seems like only yesterday I was out of my mind with a little month old baby. We won't be "celebrating" until next Saturday, so it'll be a late birthday... but she doesn't know the difference so I figured it's okay.
Fun birthday pictures to come... stay tuned.
Well, we're moving to Minot!! Strange that I tried for so long to stay away from ND and now I'm so excited to move back! Funny what kids will do to you. We're all so excited to be closer to home. We have missed our families so much and are in almost disbelief that we'll actually be close to them now! Very surreal.
We aren't sure of the details yet, but we'll keep everyone posted as we find out more. Duane just got a call today and got verbally offered the "boss" position of the job he actually applied for. (I know mom, don't end a sentence with a preposition... sorry!) He'll be supervising all of North Dakota and a lot of Canada - if I understand it right anyway. I couldn't be more proud of my hubby. What other guy could go in for an interview and land the job of the boss instead! I caught me a good fish.
Love, love, love this dress. Dani does too. After I put it on her and gushed a bit, she said, "Yook in da miwwow?" She looked at herself and said, "OH! Soooo pitty!"
Our little tomboy loves to wear Daddy's hats.
Mmmmmm, yogurt!
She's been loving on her baby a lot lately. She thought it was snack time for baby, so she buckled her in and "fed" her.
She looks like such a big girl here!
My sweet babe loves to have her picture taken! Definitely doesn't take after Grammy in that department! :)
Super cute clogs! How come she has better shoes than I do?? Not fair.
Had to throw in a picture of my other baby. ;)Danica's got some play food that came along with her kitchen set. The past few days she's been completely obsessed with the little plastic asparagus. She's got to have it with her all day every day, and if she realizes that she doesn't have it for whatever reason, she's asking, "spargus? spargus?" She's even wanted to sleep with it a few times. Not sure where this love of asparagus has come from. She's also got an egg and a strawberry that she sometimes gets pretty infatuated with, but for now it's all about the asparagus!
I was eating my left-over subway sub for lunch today. A little bit of lettuce fell out and I picked it up and ate it. Dani says to me, "Use your fork honey."
We were watching a silly little cartoon before nap time today and it had a baby crying. My sweet sensitive little girl got so upset, she was just wailing! "Oh! Baby cry! Baby cry!" It took me a good 10 minutes and a cup of milk to calm her down. Maybe a baby sister or brother isn't the best idea???? Yikes, I'd hate to have to go through that every time the baby cried.
She was "helping" me look for something to make for lunch today. She looked in the fridge... "Hmmm, what should we have? Chicken?" Then she moved over and looked in the cupboard... "Hmmm, what should we have? Crackers? No. Hmmm, maaayyybbeeeee, cheese? No." Sometimes she's so darn cute that I want to call CPS cuz I'm afraid I'll hug and squeeze her so tight she'll pop!
Look out pedestrians!!
Gotta love random food on the head.
We love the new I love Nature shirt!
Emma was taking a snooze on Dani's couch.
Look Grammy... a shopaholic already!!
Priceless!!!
