ooh, the agony (must be said in a new york jewish accent)

"oh the pain... oh the agony" she says in her best Jewish New Yorker accent.

i was doing way too much in the basement the other day, moving file boxes, and lifting large cabinets. and i've come to the conclusion that i am NOT superwoman. i totally strained my back, and have been at a right angle pretty much the entire weekend. i am only now starting to feel better. no meds today, lol.

more bunny fun!!

oh man! i love this yard!! i can't believe it! yesterday, i was out with gabey, and saw the baby bunny again, and gabey got really close to it. i think he almost touched it. it was in my cactus, and so i shooed him across the house to the little bushes. i got some fantastic pictures this time! i got worried that he was abandoned, so i got out some lettuce, and a bowl of water for him, just in case, lol. well, this morning...
i got to see the whole family! i got a ton of video! if you want i can give you the link to my video, so you can see them.
i think the baby's being weaned because he kept wanting to nurse, and the mom kept hopping away, lol. oh what a wonderful morning!

here are some of the pictures i took...

Neighborhood is in Full Bloom!

here are some pictures i took on our walk this morning. sooo gorgeous!




here are some mourning doves in my back yard right under my kitchen window.


oooo, this was a huge blessing. i just popped outside to take a bag of garbage out, and saw this little baby bunny! He stayed in the same place long enough for me to run in and get my camera! soo sweet!

meany head weather!!

i've had a headache pretty much all week. the weather finally broke today, and it rained on and off all day, yicks!
chrissy colored my hair the other day, and did a great job! i had really light hair before gabey was born, and i had to let it grow out a bit because of being pregnant. well, i've been trying to get it lighter for a few years now, and couldn't find a color light enough, lol. so, now, i got the ultimate light blonde, and it at least made it unboubtably blonde. before, it was like, your hair is blonde? i thought it was brown!

here's another adorable gabey picture. these are from us at Mcdonalds lunch with Poppy, Patty, Chrissy, and Michelle.

fun at the playground and with our neighbor

yesterday was pretty cold, but it wasn't raining yet, lol. so gabey and i walked to the playground down the street, and then visited with my neighbor, bert, across the street. she is the mom of my old friend, terry, and his little baby boy, eli, is the same age as gabey. they've been able to hang out together like 3 times already, since we moved here. it's so nice to have friends close by to visit.

some pictures of the new house

Gabey loves his new backyard

the living room with new color, new curtains (i ordered another set, to fill it out a bit more), still to come are borders, and decorations.
we love it!

our new tub surround, very nice. i love the shelves, they hold so much!


we still have quite a bit to do with the bathroom (and the whole house actually, but there's nothing at an emergency status, lol), hopefully, we'll get more done this week, but it is to a point right now where we can at least take showers, lol.
we're hoping to get a dishwasher this week too, yippeeeee!

We're HOME

it's so nice to be here. i love it. we went to our old house for the last time yesterday. i actually had to spend 4 hours there in the morning waiting for the gas man to come read the meter. sitting at an empty house with a toddler for FOUR hours. eek! actually, he was really good except for the little wallpaper ripping episode. i think he thought he was helping me, i mean the wall paper was coming up, so he just started ripping, lol. oh, i flipped. "What are you DOING?" so, we spent most of the day in the backyard. the gas company wouldn't give any closer of an estimate, just oh, from 8-12!, so I got there at 8am, and the gas man came at 11:45am!

then last night we did the last little cleanup, and left the keys on the counter, and we're out!
