Picture of the Day

Pink Puppy

Daddy got Montanna "Pink Puppy" for Valentine's Day and as you can see, she loves it!

Dancing Ballerina

This is what Montanna wore to church a few weeks ago. Aunt Patrice gave me this dress for Montanna's baby shower and I have loved dressing her in it. She looked like she should be going to a ballet recital instead of church. Maybe there will be a few of those in her future.

Getting ready for Little Sister

I think we are all anxious for our new arrival, but as it gets closer, it is crazy to think I only have a couple more weeks have this sweetie as an only child. Things are going to change for her, but I think she will do just fine adjusting. Before long, she won't remember what it was like not to have a little sister.

She loves her baby and hopefully will love her sister just as much.

Reading with Daddy

I love this picture. Can it get much sweeter than this?

What I did today....

I got a little bit crafty and made a hat for the new little girl coming our way in a few weeks and made some flower barrettes. I love that I can change the flower to match the outfit. Montanna was such a good model and I can't wait to have a newborn model soon!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Montanna loves the tradition of huge Valentine's Day Cookies! Here is a picture of her right before she dug in.

The Skittles were her favorite part, then the frosting, then the actual cookie. Happy Valentine's Day!

National Western Stock Show

My dad reminded me the other day that it has been quite a while since I have posted updated pictures on our blog. We have been busy with a lot of different things and I haven't forgotten to take pictures, I have just been slow at getting them up. A few weeks ago Adam, Montanna and I went to the National Western Stock Show in Denver. It is a huge show that goes on for about 2 weeks and has everything you could imagine. While we were there, we sat and watched a Mini Hereford auction. Some of those little cows were going for $10,000 - $15,000! Most ended up selling for an average of about $5,000, but still, I thought it was a great way for some of those kids to set up a college fund. About half of the people selling their cows were 10-15 year old kids who had raised the animals themselves. I am sure it is a lot of work, but fun to be able to participate in something like that. We need to get on a farm!

They had done sheep sheering and had bags of wool for sale and for judging, horses that were pulling carriages and getting washed up and blow dried and having shoe polish put on their hooves to make them shine. It was so much fun to watch and see all of the animals. Montanna loved it. Adam had fun taking lots of pictures of the horses and carting Montanna around so she could pet all of the different animals.

We made sure we stayed as clean as possible washing our hands with Purell as often as we saw a dispenser and Montanna now loves washing her hands....... all of the time.

Here are some pictures of our adventures.
