Separation Anxiety!


Daniel and I wanted to go out to eat tonight and decided it was time to leave Emma home with the babysitter, considering we would only be gone for one hour. The babysitter came over and immediately Emma started puckering up. It was like she knew we were going to leave her. I put her in her exercise saucer because she loves that, hoping we could make our escape when she becomes occupied by the gadgets on the saucer. Ha ha not so fast mommy. The minute I set her in there and left the room she started whaling hysterically. It broke my heart and I couldn't do it. Needless to say, Emma - 1 point, Mom - o points. She knew how to work her mom and she ended up going with us on our date. I know I am weak I admit it.



Blake and Emma playing together. Emma loves to play horse and ride on Blake's back. She just starts laughing everytime and Blake's just thinks that is so fun. He loves making his sister laugh. He is a good big brother to her.


So, I can't decide if I like this above the fireplace. I don't know if it is to rustic for the rest of the room, need opinions.


Isn't he the cutest boy? Blake and I were playing horses in his room and thought I would just take a picture of this handsome little man.

Well, I finally got my piano. I have been looking everywhere for one and I wasn't about to pay the full price for a new one. I found this one in the paper and it looks like has never even been used. I am pretty proud of my find and it fits perfect in our home.




Just another day in the Goodman home. Yes, I got my haircut. I kind of had a bad hair cut and this is the fixer upper. After four inches off I hope this will do for a while since I was trying to grow my hair out. Let's just say good thing hair grows. Of course, there is Shaylee doing her Grandpa pose. I can't get her to ever just stand and take a picture.

Well, we surprised my family and came to Arizona. We didn't tell anyone because my family is no good at keeping secrets. We got there at 1:30a.m. in the morning and knocked on the door. My stomach was all upset because I was so excited to surprise them. I could hardly contain myself on the airplane and Daniel just kept laughing at me. Daniel said, I was like a little kid. My dad came to the door half asleep and we yelled Merry Christmas. It took him a second to register who we were but then the excitement began. Mom, Dad and Jacob couldn't believe we were there. It was a fun surprise and we had a fun Christmas in Arizona.
