House project take100...

At some point we will be putting our house up for sale and knew that we would need to replace the carpet in our bedrooms. We figured we might as well enjoy it for a little while before we move (Don't get too excited Mom...it's still about 2 years away). This is what our house looked like for a week while we moved all of our bedrooms into the living room/kitchen. Can you say hoarders?? Our room with new carpet!

I also put up decals...this has a weird reflection, but looks really good in person!

We also decided to paint Nadia's room a neutral color and get rid of the green.

A Few of My Favorite Things...

Nadia is quite the little Daddy's girl and it's easy to see why! She loves to make Dad dress up in girly aprons and play with her princesses. She even calls him Prince Eric and is very quick to correct me when I call him Darren! Nadia and I are both lucky to have such a good Daddy/Husband in our life!!

MOA with Logan!

After a long week away for work, I needed to get Nadia out and do something fun. She loves the Mall of America and going on all the rides. She thought it was called American Idol for the longest time and would ask Darren and I if we could take her to the American Idol. :)

Krista and Logan met us there and the kids loved going on the kiddie rides.

We also went to the Disney Store and Nadia got to pick out a swimming suit. She puts it on every night when she gets home from daycare!

Catch Up

I've been horrible with our camera lately which has been my excuse to not update our blog!! We've had a busy month with work, marathon training and changing princess outfits on an hourly basis.

Nadia is obsessed with any princess as most 3 year old girls are and talked me into getting my 'princess' dress on to play/dance. She cried for about 30 minutes when I took it off!

We went to a benefit last weekend with Lisa and Meg. We didn't have a babysitter so Darren offered to bring the girls for a bit and then take them home to watch them while we whooped it up at the local legion.

Nadia and Nora had fun jamming to the band and eating M&M's!

Life has been busy for us! I am traveling about once/week for work and Mr. Mom holds down the house while I'm gone. We're looking forward to Super Bowl Sunday when all the Kuhn's will be in the area!

Looking back at our 2 week holiday calendar, Darren and I realized that we only had 1 day by ourselves and company the rest of the time. What better way to spend the holidays??! Nadia loved having Grandma/Grandpa Kuhn and Dana here for a few days. I did not do a good job taking pictures unfortunately!!

We spent a whole day down at Dion's admiring their new basement (now I REALLY want a new house!).

Nadia loves her new suitcase. She packs her blanket and off she goes!

We are loving our Dec/Jan weather here in MN...we debated on getting Nadia a trampoline for Christmas since she wouldn't be able to use it until late spring...well, she's used it quite a bit!

Nadia loves her new hairdryer!

The Moe's joined us for NYE. It was quite the party!

For anyone who knows Darren, the picture below will shock you!!!!!!!!

Merry Christmas!

We spent Christmas at home for the first time in 3 years. My parents were able to come and spend a whole week with us and kept Nadia busy and bossy!

The bossy part led to happy hours as soon as I got home from work. :)
Don't feel sorry for Papa...he used to pay me to play with his hair!!

Nadia's cute new outfit!


We spent Christmas day at the Moe's...Logan and Nadia were in their costumes/dress up clothes ALL day and were showing off their mad dance skills...Nadia's were slightly inappropriate...


We missed seeing Erick and family and the Kuhn's this year! We can't wait for Tuesday to get here to see Grandma, Grandpa and Dana Kuhn...drive fast!

Family Photo Season!

We had our family pics taken a few weeks ago...here are a few of my favorites!
