Beccas Pretty Dress!

Our Good Family Friend Becky Matthews was in town, and she brought Becca this beautiful dress! Becca is totally into this girly dress up stuff and LOVES pretty dresses! So we now call this her Cinderalla dress! We are going to Disney Land next week, and we super excited to take Becca to see Cinderlla in person! YEA! (we love that place a little too much). Anyway Becca was acting like she was pretty hot stuff all day in her new gown! Thanks again Becky! Here are a few pics of the girls (as always :)

Pictures from a random week :)

So these are basically just some pictures from the last week of the girls! Becca thinks she can fit in Rachels baby basket! I catch her in there often:). She also has taken an interest in my parenting magazines (this photo was not staged, funny girl). Rachel is getting bigger by the day! Holy cow, can the girl eat :) She has the cutest double chin I've ever seen. Nathan and I are starting to see now who has which genes. Rachel has the Neibaur side going on, and we see a lot of Lord in Becca (what do you think?) We also decided to take the girls to Thanksgiving point to see some animals! Becca had a blast, however she started crying when she heard the roosters crow (we were trying not to laugh:). Well hope you enjoy the pics!

Tagged! Lovely

Emily your tag was awesome to read mine will be pretty lame. But here are 10 things you may not know about me:)

1. I am OC when it comes to cleaning, it's a real problem! My house never feels clean enough! I wipe down the kitchen counters at least 3 times before I call it good.

2. I have seen the movie "The Ring" I don't know 15 times. However I have yet to actually watch the whole movie (probably half of it). I am a complete and total woosy pants, and will not look that Samara girl in the eye.

3. I hate Queen Anne furniture, and especially do not care for Victorian style homes (they creep me out)! I always think some dead lady in a wedding dress will come out to get me!

4. I kissed 3 guys in one day. Ok that actually went on for about a week! It sure was fun:)! That was back in high school.

5. I set the oven on fire at my moms house making brownies a few years back. We called the fire department and they sent over 3 fire trucks! I felt pretty retarded. We at least sent them home with the brownies that survived.

6. I love Madonna! I own just about every album :)

7. The movie Jaws forever changed my life! I will not step more then 5 feet out into the ocean. Sad I know.

8. I really believe that the Loch Ness Monster exists. If there is a TV special on about it, I am probably watching it!

9. One morning on my way to high school I had Jessica Burton in the car with me. She had to inform me that I had just hit a car taking there side mirror off! The poor Lady in the van I had hit was too stunned to come after me! I would have never known! Thats scary!

10. When I was like 4 years old, my sister and I use to go into the cemetery by our house and steal the fake flowers off the graves.

Ok I am going to Tag......Bryn Allred, Stacie Aho, Chelsie Drake, Audrey Crisp, & April Atwood!
Have fun

Beccas World

Lately I have been thinking that I need to write down all of the crazy and funny things Becca does at this stage in life, so here it goes!

- The blanket! She loves this one blanket of hers, and non other will possibly do. It use to be pink now it looks gray, and worn very thin (ut oh)! She drags that blanket with her everywhere. If she has missed placed it she wonders around the house mourning saying "bannn tet, bannn tet! Were bann tet" And no one will rest until it is found.

- Dancing! This girl loves to dance when music of any kind comes on. She gets super excited and starts running around in circles singing (we think) as loud as possible to the music with her hands going up and down, and the blanket in tow dragging behind her. Her current favorite is from the movie "Tarzan" Trashing the camp (she goes crazy over it)!

- Food! She wakes up first thing in the morning saying "toast, eggs, food". She also loves to gather every tupperware in the house, and sets her little stool up to the counter and then pretends she is making food. Any object she finds in the house is turned into pretend food.

- When Nathan leaves for work in the morning I always tell him "love you drive safe". So when I go to lay Becca down for a nap, she waves bye bye to me, and blows a kiss, and says "Bye Drive Safe". I try to not laugh, but it's still so funny to me.

- Movies! anytime anywhere, she just loves movies. If she hears the word "movie" she will screech really loud saying "OH! Watch movie!" and come running full speed!

- Ok this one is kinda scary.... She has one of those cozy coupe cars, and when inside it she hangs her head out the window with one hand under her chin, and says "hmm.. chickum nuggs, chickum nuggs please." She thinks she has some how made it to McDonalds (or Wendy's take your pick).

Well those are just a few but they are things I know I will miss!! Rachel is currently giving big smiles, and sleeping the whole night long (lovely). Although Becca is still oblivious to the fact that she has a sister, Rachel just beams when looking at her big sis. And I just had to throw in a few pictures because I take so many (got to cut back). Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Love Lauren

I DID IT!!!

10 days ago I started "The Master Cleanse". I have attempted this cleanse multiple times and only made it to day 5. I am happy to say that I finally stuck it out the whole ten days. Here is what the cleanse consists of...60 0z. water per day divided into six servings of 10 oz each. In each 10 oz. glass put in the following.....2 Tbsp Pure Maple Syrup, 2 Tbsp fresh squeezed organic lemon juice, and 1/10 tsp cayenne pepper. And that is what you live off of for 10 days or longer (if you choose to go further). And no I am not breastfeeding, so don't try it if you are. For those of you who are not able to breastfeed contact me! We have a great homemade unprocessed baby formula that is healthy, and has done wonders for both our kids.

Purpose of cleanse:

To dissolve and eliminate toxins and congestion that have formed in any part of the body.

To cleanse the kidneys and the digestive system.

To purify the glands and cells throughout the entire body.

To eliminate all unusable waste and hardened material in the joints and muscles.

To relieve pressure and irritation in the nerves, arteries, and blood vessels.

To build a healthy blood stream.

So did the cleanse work? I have no idea yet, but I feel great! The first 2 days were hard, but after that I have felt really good. I have had plenty of energy and been headache free! When I had Rachel I lost a lot of blood and had to have a blood transfusion. Even so, after the transfusion my blood level dropped again. I lost a lot of blood when I delivered Becca as well. The cleanse claims to help correct the loss of blood.

"Its iron (from lemons) builds the red corpuscles to rapidly correct the most common forms of anemia."

Anywho you might think I am crazy, but I promise I'm not :). If you have any questions or want to try the cleanse for yourself, google "The Master Cleanse." Stanley Burroughs is the guy who came up with this cleanse. I do not agree with the diet he teaches. He claims that meat and animal products are to blame for our poor health. I believe that it is all the processed food science projects that we eat everyday that have screwed our bodies up. I mean, come on, non fat butter? You have to wonder what chemicals and other things have gone into that poor "non fat butter". Just use your logic: non fat butter doesn't exist! If it came from a lab then I am pretty sure that "real butter" is better for you to eat. I am a full believer in eating meat and real animal products. Don't get me wrong though I still eat things like spaghettios (I love that stuff:) I am far from perfect when it comes to eating good food. Ok coming off my soap box now. Thanks for reading, it got kind of long.

Just Random

So lately after I have put Becca to bed I can still hear her up in her room (playing with toys). She usually does this for a few then falls asleep, and we find her in her bed so I just let it slide. Tonight when we went to go check in on her she had taken her shirt off and was fast asleep in bed! She is such a nut! Anywho had to take a picture and thought I would share. I also had to throw in a pic of Rachel in the bathtub because I just had too. She always has such a serious look on her face.
