The love of a cat...

My cat Puffy is the biggest ball of fur and love you'd ever see. He LOVES people, but especially loves our kids. Now, I normally don't allow 'cuddles' with the baby, but I couldn't resist getting these pictures. I booted him off as soon as I was done snapping away!

I recognized someone...

from BLOGLAND last night!

It was my first night at my brand new job and I was finding out very quickly that waitressing after 5 months off is *not* so much like riding a bike. I was running around like a mad woman and I think I had 3 tables in the whole place. New job, new place, new menu, new procedures, phew. It was a long night. My back was hurting by the end of it, which just tells me that I've been sitting on my BIG lazy butt way too much at home.

Anyway, back to the amazing story.

I go up to my latest two top hoping they don't ask me a bunch of questions about a menu that I'm not very familiar with. I look at the people and suddenly it dawns on me...its SACHI! I have no idea how that is properly pronounced, but I asked if her name was, indeed, Sachi, and it was! I think I was about 10 different shades of red and both of us were laughing hysterically when I finally spit out how I "knew" her. My other tables must have been wondering what was going on.

I've been keeping up with her blog for quite a while now. Its mostly focused on knitting and yard, and all things related. I don't do any of those things, but I love seeing her latest creations and all of the pictures of her animals! I think she has about 25 cats by the pictures that she posts. ;) Definitely check it out if you get the chance.

Sachi, or Audrey is it? It was so nice to meet you!

In addition to our dropshots page...

I'll now be posting updates here and there on this blog! A picture may be worth a thousand words, but the actual stories behind some of them might entertain you as well.

Check back whenever you'd like and hear about Daniel and Isaiah's latest tales and what new and exciting things that Elijah is doing.

Pictures will be posted here, but the majority of our pictures will remain on our dropshots page, which is located HERE.

The password to our pictures page is our last name, in lower case letters. If you don't know our last name you'll have to be satisfied with the pictures I post here!

About me!

So here's where I'm supposed to tell you a little about me...

My name is Nicole. I'm 26 years old and I like in the Pacific Northwest. I moved here from Minnesota where I was raised in September of 2006. Besides being away from my whole family and all of my friends, I really like it out here! I much prefer getting rained on for 7 months than shoveling snow, scraping windshields, and generally freezing my butt off. The scenery is the best I've ever seen, and once I finally get myself on a mountain to ski that'll definitely be a big one in the "Pro" column as well!

I have a great husband, Jeremiah, and three awesome boys.

Daniel is 3, and is really growing up to be a nice little guy. He loves all things superhero, Transformers, and all the typical 'boy' things.

Isaiah is almost 2 at the time of this posting and he is definitely living up to the old 'terrible two' label. He's wild, and he's into everything at all times! He's also the sweetest, most loving little guy you'll probably meet. When he isn't getting into things and making a mess, he's loving on me, his Daddy, or his brothers.

Elijah is the newest addition to our family. Born in September of this year he's been a very easy baby so far! Just wait until he's mobile though!

This blog will probably focus on the kids. I'm a stay at home mom, so that's what my day is filled with!

So come on in, stay a while, and find out what its REALLY like to be the mom of three boys, three and under.
