Makeovers

Chloe got a beauty shop for Christmas. When we got our stuff from Oklahoma she rediscovered her make-up. The kids come up to us every day and ask us if they are beautiful. Of course they are! Who could resist these two? Aren't they cute? I just hope that it shows up well enough for you to see it. By the way, yes we let Jared play in make-up. He has grown up playing with girl toys and we can't seem to get him away from them. He has a train set and dump trucks that he plays with too. Don't worry.

Reading Time

This is Holly Jones and our kids. I just have to tell you all how much my kids love Holly and her husband, Rick. They also love to read. Holly was just sitting there and got roped into reading stories for about 2o minutes. She finally asked if we could do something else so that she didn't have to read all night.

Rick was in Oklahoma with us and he got to be really good friends with the kids. Jared calls him Yick so Rick calls Jared Yared. They are all so cute together.

Now I have been tagged!

The rules of the game should be posted at the beginning of the post. Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves. At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

1- I love to sing. I don't do much of it anymore but I used to be in the church choir and in 2 show choir classes in high school.

2-I am a novice scrapbooker. I don't get to do much of it because of 2 little curious kids but I do enjoy doing it. The kids love to look at their books. They are kind of vain like that.

3- I love to read. I can sit down with a book and tune everything else out. It drives Ken crazy. I get so involved in the books that I read that it is like I am in the situation watching everything happen.

4- I hate looking at a computer for hours on end. Ken can surf the internet for hours. I can only look at it for a little while. I like to write papers but that only takes an hour or so for me to do.

5- I have to adorable kids and one that is on the way that is shaping up to be just as much of a handful as the other two. She likes to be up high and kick me in the ribs when I least expect it.

6- I have the best husband in the world. He is as calm as I am crazy. Ask him, he will tell you. He is always concerned about me and the kids. I love him more every day.

I would like to thank my mom for tagging me. I like to have to think about things in my life that make me happy. I also enjoy the opportunity to tell others things that they may not know about me. I know that the rules say that I am supposed to tag 6 other people but I think that either Ken has tagged everyone that has not tagged us. So I will just have to leave this post as an informational post only. Sorry if you don't like it.

I've been Tagged

The rules of the game should be posted at the beginning of the post. Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.

1. I have been in the guard for 10 years one year was on active duty after September 11. I have just received my commission as an officer on May 5. I am in the Field Artillery and love it.

2. I only knew Lisa for 4 months before we were married and the first year of our marriage was the year I was activated.

3. I have a BS Degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Military Science but plan on doing nothing with it. That is why I am going back to school to become a massage therapist.

4. I have always wanted to travel and enjoy the many aspects of the world. I hope now that I will be able to and make a little money while doing it.

5. I love to do anything that involves the mountains and the outdoors. I think this is because that is were I like to go to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of life. I really like it we I get to spend time up at the cabin with my family.

6. This one is going to be a real shocker. I LOVE FOOD. I have a very hard time putting food down unless I am stuffed full and ready to pop. This is a real problem because the guard wants me to be skinny.

This is such a easy task to do I don't know why I have to make it so hard. I guess I want to have something cool posted and things that people may not know instead of the obvious things that everybody knows. I just read into things to much instead of taking it easy. I hope that Brona, Jen, Jenny, Malinda, Sylvia, and Tanielle enjoy this task.

Finally

I just thought that I would let ya all know that we finally got our household goods. We are so excited and can't wait to sleep on our bed. I think that is what I will enjoy the most for a while. Next will be the living room set. We have really missed our stuff. It is one thing to know that you don't have anything than to know you have something and just can't have it because it is somewhere in a truck or storage unit. Anyways We have our stuff and are way excited. We Love Ya and hope ya have fun.

Our new home

This is our new house. When we pulled up to see it for the first time, Ken and I were not so sure about it. After I saw the inside I decided that it would work for us. Ken wasn't with me to see the inside so I didn't notice how low the ceilings were in the basement (where our room is).

When I pulled up to the house with Chloe and Jared, the first words out of Chloe's mouth were: "Mom, it's green!" After I stopped laughing I told her that yes it was green but it was our new house.

It is a three bedroom house and it has 2 kitchens and 2 living areas. What are we going to do with all of that space? Well, the 2nd living area is going to be mine and Ken's. The 2nd kitchen is going to be a storage room for all of the things that we can't fit in the rest of the house. If we can we might set up our big table down there and play cards there with friends after the kids go to bed. Who knows?

We really like being in our own house again. If only we could get our stuff from Oklahoma to furnish it. That is a whole other can of worms better saved for another post. By the way, the driveway that you see used to be a solid sheet of ice. I guess the last tenants didn't shovel the snow and we had to pick all of the ice off. By we I mean Ken. I shoveled some but he did most of the work. It took 2 full days and 2 full big bags of ice melt to get rid of it all.

It's a girl!

We have told everyone what we are having but just in case you don't know yet for some reason, we are having a girl. We have a whole roll of pictures from the ultrasound but we aren't sure if you can scan ultrasound pictures. I don't want to ruin them. She is healthy and she is cute. We got to see her yawn. They said that my due date is May 12. Ken wants me to go over so that I can be finished with finals. We'll just have to wait and see about that. Her name will be Reba or Rebecca Michelle McArthur. Even if we name her Rebecca she will be called Reba. Most of you know that I am a country fan but I also just happen to like the name. Chloe and Jared are starting to talk to her. Tonight Chloe pushed on my stomach by accident and she asked if she should say sorry to the baby. I think it is cute. I'm not totally sure that they really understand that they are going to have another person in our house competing for attention. I think they will both love her but they will have a hard time with having to share Mom and Dad.
