WOW

My last post was March 15th! So I'll catch you up a bit. Lindsay got home and we enjoyed him all to our selves for a couple of days. That was great! We went to Ikea and bought a dresser for Layton .(His old one was falling apart...All three drawer bottoms fell out in one day!) We also purchased a new bed for Tana a big girl bed!! She wont be in that for a while! I am not ready for the 2 am visits...ha ha! We also got her a matching dresser. I did an engagement shoot last weekend and that was great.
Then the craziness broke out.... Tana and Layton got sick then Lindsay then me....aaaah. I babysat a Wed, Thurs, Fri. with a full house all three days... Lindsay took time off work to get better, This is what we did almost every night!

With a combintation of this:

and slurpee's from Mac's

We had a birthday party yesturday at a pool, It was fun and Layton took home a hat! He is pretty excited for his party..... So he decorated the house...yup those are forks on the wall! He can be so creative!! ha ha

I also edited pictures from my engagement shoot my sewing machine broke and cost me $45 to fix. It has been crazy. Not to mention we must have been extra good this year cause Santa's reindeer left us a little gift the other day! YIKES!! Maybe we should have put up a bigger fence! ha ha

EDIT.... Some people were having trouble viewing this past 4 sec. I think it's working now.. Not sure what happend.

Also I didn't realize that you could hear me talking...lol.. I was on the phone with Lindsay taping this for him!

One Last thing! I have to mention that this is the ALEX dance off Madagascar 2 at the end. you can see some of the tv on the video... Layton is reenacting it...

spring or so we thought!

It has been mostly beautiful outside this week! with highs of +11. We are loving it! We made a snow cave... it caved in but we still had fun making it!

We made a snow man... Layton insisted on making him beautiful! So he/she has a crown!

This picture is for daddy to show off Tana's new boots I got for a dollar at liquadation world!! woot woot!

Wild and Wacky Weekend!

So lindsay has been gone for a while now, but good news he might be home on the 18th!! YEAH!! We miss him here at the smith house! But while he has been gone we have recieved....gifts (that is how I am going to look at it) from above... Yes snow.. and lots of it! and blizzards!!

I was shoveling my neighbours walk on thursday and I sprained my ankle...where is carma when you need her! So I was not able to walk and Lindsay not being home I couldn't take any drugs for it either!! ( many of you that really know me know that drugs and me don't exactly mix... well actually we mix a little to well if you know what I mean!) So I call my sister Kate and she drove up from red deer and watched my kids all night so that I could drug myself better!

It was an awesome night... I really want more of those nights!! With out the drugs!!

So then after the next day we went to her house in red deer and planned to be home saturday night... well that didn't happen... cause uh you guessed it BLIZZARD and not the dairy queen Kind either! So we stayed another night (poor mudd didn't get fed for 2 days) Then drove home sunday to make it home for church... well I forgot about daylight savings...boo on alberta!! And didn't realize it until we left that I was going to be a little late! Thankfully the roads were good! (bless those angelic highway workers) and we made it home in 1 hour exactly and got changed I showerd and we went to church 20 min late! But all in all a very eventfull week end!

Oh while we were in Red deer we took in the home and garden show and Tana Smacked Andrew Dan Jumbo (yes off of trading spaces and while you were out) In the bum with a balloon. How completely embarrasing... I was so red, and to top it off I took the balloon away and she had a fit and hit me in the face 3 times.... yup that is my child!! Wow...what happend to my baby! aaaaah!

But on the brighter side of things I got my head shots taken by an amazing photographer!! (Hi Amanda at chicks that click photography!) They turned out awesome I love them!!!! Thanks so much!! Here are a few for you to enjoy!
