Busy Times

Hello Everyone,

Here are pictures of our little garden. We have 4 tomato plants and 2 green pepper plants. So far they are growing. I will let you know if we get any tomatoes or peppers.

Last weekend we went to Mickey Finn's and the River Inn in Waterford, WI to watch Sound of Mountains. We had a great time. The band is improving and adding songs by CCR and the Doors. They will be playing in Barrington June 19. To follow the band the website is http://www.soundofmountains.com/

I won the Biggest Loser contest at work. I lost 18 pounds. My prize was the entrance fee pot $150 and a paid day off of work. Pretty cool. I did my own Extreme Makeover - new glasses, four crowns on my front teeth and weight loss. I feel good, but would like to lose a few more pounds. I'm sure my doctor will be happy when I go back.

Missy I like the new look of the blog.

Take care everyone.

9 months!!!

Hi there! I'm nine months old. As Grandpa Jim pointed out, I've been out of Mommy's tummy as long as I was in. He makes me giggle.

I can eat real food now. I love egg yolk, waffles, yogurt, cheese, graham crackers, mashed potatoes...the list goes on and on! And I'm getting pretty good at drinking out of a sippy cup.

I'm not crawling yet, but I'm getting on my hands and knees from a seated position and I'm trying to go. I can sit up from a lying position all by myself. I can even pull myself up to a standing position in my crib.

My favorite word is "dada". I love making funny faces and blowing raspberries. I'm an all around ham. :)

mum wins city finals!

Mum's tennis team won the city championship! She was captain of this winning team. They also won best table (everyone dresses up their own food table) which had a wedding theme - hence the veils on some of the ladies hats. Dad was the biggest supporter (he told me to write that). Mum has been pretty pumped since her win - hard to live with, but would have been worse if she lost.

The Brandon's

Jeremiah really likes his new job. He told me that he looks forward to going to work and talking with the different people. I like the fact that he gets free gas for his work truck, because he does a lot of driving. I got a job in Springfield at St. Johns Hospital in the NICU. I will start there July 13th at 8:00am. That is really early. We are moving into our new house Fathers Day weekend. I hope the weather is nice. Hope everybody is doing good.

prom 2009

this is one of my photos taken at my friend siraji's house; that's where the 14 of us in my group met for photos. this is one of 4 of the "couples" photos, I'll be sure to upload group and boy/girl pictures. rodrigo and I had a super fun time with our "couples" photo part because, out of the 14, we were the only two that was actually a "couple" so we got lots of pictures taken.

Happy Birthday/ Happy Anniversary

Happy Birthday Rick. Happy Anniversary Fred & Shawn.

Starting today Onsrud is going back to 40 hour weeks from 36 hour weeks. I was enjoying working 36 hours, but the pay cut stunk.

Congrats Scott on your new job. Another place to visit!!!!

I have a wish list of things to do Memorial Day weekend. We will see how much gets done.

Have a nice Memorial Day.
