My Two Favorite People!


We just put this seat on the back of the bike and Eva absolutely loves it! The "old school" helmet we found in G'ma and G'pa Belnap's garage. I thought it looked awesome on her!

The Best Thing Ever!

Eva's new thing is to grab Eric's and my head when she wants to plant a big one on us. I love it so much! Especially since she never used to like giving us kisses. Now she chooses to on her own.

AFTER THE CHAOS!


Eva escaping the chaos after a long Easter day. She loves her books. I read her 4 books then she continued to look through every single book that she owns. She did this for a good half hour.

All the Belnap cousins. Well not quite all of them.

OUR EASTER WEEKEND

I thought I'd just post several pictures from our Easter weekend.


Eva and myself coloring Easter eggs.

I'VE BEEN TAGGED!

I know I've been tagged several times before and never did anything about it, so I guess I better follow through this time since I've been tagged twice within the last week. So here you go. I'll try not to bore you too much.

6 THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT ME ARE......

1. I too wanted to be a boy when I was little, 1) because I knew Michael was my Dad's favorite child, and 2) because I didn't really have hair til about 3 years old. Infact, I used to argue with my cousin, Nathan, because I honestly believed I was born a boy but turned into a girl. Now I can assure you, that was not the case.

2. From about 5 years old to 11 years old I lived on a remote island in Alaska. My Dad, managed a logging camp, we were surrounded by forest with the ocean as my back yard view. A bear chased me home from school once (lets just say he wasn't as close to catching me as I thought he was). My class consisted of 2 girls, self included. I absolutely loved it and was devistated when we moved.

3. I loved photo shoots growing up. My sister Gayle, would dress up, do make-up and take pictures of my little sister, Melissa, and I. She did this for most of my child and teenage years. You should see some of the pictures now. Pretty funny! But it's fun to look back on.

4. I've wanted to be an Architect since I was young enough to build with blocks. I've also wanted to be a carpenter, and do everything in my own garage, build my own furniture and what ever else I wanted to create. I still want to be both, some nights I still lay awake for hours coming up with the "perfect" designs in my head.

5. I'm a total Hippy at heart. Luckily I married someone who feels the same way. I daydream for the day that I can have a huge organic garden and prepare and feed meals to my family from it everyday. I love yoga and hope to certify in it and teach it someday. My goal is to maintain a completely balanced and natural lifestyle, from my skincare to my eco-friendly "green" home.

6. I come from a family of 8 kids. If I'm able to, I would love to have 5 or 6. I love being a mom, and would love to have a big family. When I picture myself as the person I want to be, I'm surrounded by my loving husband and children. Who knows, time may change that, but as for now thats what I hope for.

Oh, how we love this show! Gayle and Joe introduced us to this hilarious and super creative HBO series. We watched the first season with them and had to get it for ourselves. Thank you, Eric, for getting it for me! We're so excited to have a "Flight of the Conchords Night," with some friends and family! I'll let you know how it goes.

This is one of my favorite songs of theirs. Enjoy!

Eva's Love for Popcorn!


Eva's biggest weakness right now is popcorn, or as she calls it "pop." I call it a weakness because she absolutely loves it and could eat it all day, but we have to limit it because it keeps her up all night with gas. Eric has this whole routine that he does to make it "perfect." She enjoys every minute of it. I love how genuinely excited she gets. It's pretty funny! The 2nd picture is her saying, "mmmmmmm," and the shocked face is when it starts to pop.
