Slacker

You would think that since I just at home everyday playing with Jenna I could do a better job at updating this blog! Well, Jenna keeps me pretty busy! Somedays it takes us quite some time to get motivated and get out of our PJ's!

Eli is officially on Summer Break! He can now call himself a 1st. Grader!

Gramma had foot surgery and just started back to work yesterday. She claims she is really tired and will be sleeping a lot this weekend!

James loves work just as much as the day he started! Okay, he is ready to take a little vacation time!

I just took the kids to Wal-Mart to get their pictures taken! They looked so beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is a picture of Jenna and Marty!

Jenna vs. ear tubes

Jenna had her first surgery today! She had a 10 minute procedure, and in the end she came out with Ear Tubes! Luckily our doctor doesn't feel that ear plugs make a difference. So, Jenna will be able to participate in water activities w/out silly putty in her ears. She was a little cranky after the surgery, but we still love her.

Reminder Time

Jenna’s First Birthday!

Jenna was born June 7, 2007 @ 11:07 AM

We will be gathering to Celebrate Jenna’s 1st Birthday

When: June 7, 2008 @ 2:00 PM

Where: 4004 Village Trace Blvd.
Indianapolis, IN 46254
317-297-7216



It is a special time for the Martin Family!

We have decided to do something unique for Jenna’s Birthday. We would like to create a Time Capsule. On Jenna’s 18th Birthday we will open the Time Capsule to enjoy the items that you have given her.

Now let’s discuss what I mean by items. What you choose to place in the Time Capsule will be special to you and Jenna. Or something special to you that you would like Jenna to have when she turns 18. Or something that defines you that you can tell Jenna all about at the opening of the Time Capsule. It could be an item from your Alma Mater as she is getting ready to go to College. It could be something as simple as a letter, or something discussing current events. My hopes are that you spend a lot of time stumped on what you should do. That way when she does open the Time Capsule you will see that what you put in is something that she will always cherish. Better yet she will feel special that everyone cared so much when she was a baby! It is totally up to you whether or not you wrap the item. I am now sending you out to get creative! Please have fun on this mission!

By doing this Time Capsule it will also help our out of town family join in on the fun. For those of you unable to make the trek to Indianapolis please mail in your item and we will place it in the Time Capsule on 6/7/08!

We can’t wait to see everyone to celebrate Jenna’s 1st Birthday!

Jenna and her personality!

Jenna is growing up so fast. I can't believe how quick time is flying by!

Jenna is learning all kinds of new skills. Jenna has begun flipping over right as I take her dirty diaper off. She leaves me with the full moon view! When she gets really happy she starts slapping her hands on the ground. Yesterday she started clapping! She loves to crawl in circles, and runaway from you when you go to get her.

Last but not least, Jenna is learning the meaning behind "NO", and "STOP". I can tell you this, she does not like to be told no. It's like her feelings are hurt when you tell her no. She does know when she is not suppose to do something, because she will watch you while slowly moving her hand towards the no, no item! Sneaky already!

Trying a new career path

Well it's official. DCS has decided that they no longer need my services! So, I have decided to give being a Stay At Home Mommie a try! So far so good!

I am appealing DCS's decision, so I am not really looking for a job until I have a better idea on what my REAL outcome is going to be!
