where did summer go??

Well that went fast! What happened to my summer?? I miss it already. But I am looking forward to playing in the snow and making snowmen and angels :) Mom says it will be here before we know it! Yippee!

I'm 5 now!

Hello everyone! Can you believe I've turned 5 already? A couple months ago! Mom has been too busy to post updates. Hopefully I can get her to update with some new pics soon. She is having some computer problems lately so not much has been getting done on here.

More updates coming soon!

XOXO, Faith Marie

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! It's looking like winter came back here after I thought for sure Spring was here... it warmed up and the snow all melted but Mom warned me that it wasn't spring yet. It sure felt like it for a couple days though! I am already wishing it was summer so I could splash around in my pool again.

Can't chat long today... it's almost time for Horseland, one of my favorite shows because I love horses now too :)

I'll try to get back again soon and update everyone with what I've been up to.

XOXOXO,

Faith Marie

It's December already!

Wow! How did 2 months go by without a post? ha! Mom & I have been so busy with pre-schooling and taking care of business at home that I havent updated lately. Sorry about that. So what have I been up to? Let's see...

We just got our first major snow of the season and it was a good one! Of course, I've already been out making snow angels, having snowball fights, making snowmen, and my favorite sledding! wheeeee!

The chickens are trying their best to adjust to this weather and actually be "cooped up" in their coop for a change LOL Dad said he was going to go out and water the chickens the other day but I quickly informed him that I didnt think the chickens would like it if he got them all wet. He just laughed at me! :)

Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving!

I'm so excited about Christmas, I just wrapped my first present this year all myself! Mom couldnt help me, she was in the middle of making a batch of yummy yogurt but I didnt even need her help anyhow! We put our tree up last weekend and I just love watching the pretty sparkly lights.

Well time to go learn some more fun stuff in school! I'll try to get back soon and post some new pics.

XOXOXO, Faith Marie

Faith at 4!

Mom tried out a new video service the other day :)

Follow Me On Yes, Where Else... Twitter!

Ok, Had to try out Twitter tonight. I'm supposed to be sleeping though hehe So follow me on twitter here and I'll follow you, as soon as I get the hang of it.

So, uh, where did July go? Geez Louise! :) It's been a fun summer though. Mom, Dad & I picked something like 64 lbs. of blueberries the other weekend, yummy! Mom has been busy filling our freezer with the garden bounty this summer. I have more pics to show you soon. Need to go get my beauty sleep now :)

XOXOXO, Faith Marie

STRAWBERRIES & Princesses!

They are herrrrrrrrrrrreeee! :) Our strawberries are just starting to ripen now and oh yummmmy! I gave one or two of these to mommy and I ate the rest because daddy was gone hahahhaha

Cant believe it's June already! wow! Lots is happening around here. I finally got my "princess" room with my own grown up bed! No headboard yet but hey, I dont mind. I love it! If it's got princesses on it, it's for me :)

I heard Great Grandpa was back here for a few weeks so I'm looking forward to seeing him again soon. I dont get to see him very often anymore since he doesnt live here anymore and he's 94 years old! wow! I cant count that high but mom tells me that is really good.

Oh yeah, we've been busy homeschooling too. I love school. I especially love my new school books mom got from Sonlight Curriculum. We've slowed down some since it's so nice out we spend our days outside, when it's nice enough and not doing the spring storming thing. But mom says we'll get back to it again in the fall. I still have to have mom read at least a couple stories out of my books before I can go to sleep every night though.

Speaking of which, it is getting very late! I must be in bed by now lol Goodnight, all!

XOXOX,

Faith Marie

I'm 4 Already!

Wow! Where did that year go? I turned 4 on April 2nd! Here's a pic of me playing with my all my princesses in my new princess castle I got for my birthday. And another pic of some of the 26 new additions to our family! The last pic is one of the guy that came to plow up our new garden today that we will be growing this summer. Daddy wished it was his tractor! Mom wanted to grow more this year, well, I'd say she has the space now, it about tripled what we already had! Wow! Are we ever going to busy this summer!? I also helped mom & dad plant 3 apples trees, a peach and a pear tree so far too.

Well, it's getting late again and I must get to my beauty rest :) I'll be back again soon with another update!

XOXOXOX, Faith Marie

We're home!

Hi all! We are back home again after a fun trip to Florida to see Grandpa! It was so much fun but I sure was glad to get back home as I missed my own bed and my toys so badly. Sadly, I ended up getting the flu bug within a couple days of getting back home so I didnt get to enjoy my toys very long before I got so sick I couldnt play at all :( But about a week later now and I am feeling more like playing again. Yipee!! Anyhow, thought maybe I could post one Florida trip picture for now, until Mom gets more time to edit them. Can you guess where this picture was taken?? hehe

The weather in FL was soooo nice, I even got to wear my summer clothes. So of course when I came home I expected that it was summer here too but... it wasnt!! Bummer! Mom assures me it spring cant too far off now, although sometimes it seems that way.

Ok, will try to post again soon with more Disney pics.

XOXOXOX, Faith Marie

A snowman any mom would love!

Happy New Year everyone! Mom just wanted to post a pic of my first snowman that I did ALL by myself. No help from Mom or Dad! See? I really can do it when I want to! :) She was so impressed she even got a video of me making it but I wont bore you with that LOL

I am so excited that I am going to get to go all way down to Florida to see my Grandpa next month! On my first ever plane flight too! Yippee!! Well gotta get to bed its late. talk soon!

XOXOXOXOX, Faith Marie

Merry Christmas!

Wow! It's almost Christmas! Time to celebrate the birth of Jesus! I can hardly wait. Sorry for the lack of updates here once again, Mom and I have been extremely busy between pre-schooling, making Christmas gifts and listing on ebay. Whew! Not sure how I find any time to play! ha ha

Wishing everyone a very Merry CHRIST-mas and a happy New Year! See you all again in the new year!

XOXOXOX, Faith Marie

Grandpa's visit last month

Here's a couple pics of Grandpa & Margie's visit with us last month. The first one is me with Grandpa and Margie and the other one is all of Grandpa's side of the family that come to the family reunion we all went to before he left to go back home. His visits are always too short! :) I think he should stay up here in the summer. Talk to you again soon!

XOXOXOX, Faith Marie

80 degrees in October... Yahoo!!

Happy Fall Ya All! :) If every fall was like this, Mom & I sure would be happy. It has been just beautiful. 80 degrees today! Amazing!

Just a quick update as usual we don't have a lot of time LOL I've started some preschool at home with Mom and I am so excited about that. I don't understand why we can't do it allllll day long because I love it so much hehe My favorite question right now is "Can we learn more school today?" ;)

Here's a recent pic to hold you over until Mom can get my photo album updated again. Last time she tried to update it, it didnt want to be updated apparently. I have lots of good pics to share, like when Grandpa came to visit last month!! That was such fun! Maybe I can get Mom to post another pic here after this post. Mom had another problem with her laptop for a bit. Kind of scared her, thought she might lose about 3 months worth of my pictures... Yikes! Can you imagine?? But thankfully, it was just a bad memory bank and it's fixed now. She learned her lesson and backed up the photos right away! ;)

Oh yeah, had my 3 year check up (at 3 1/2) and I am now 40" tall. wow! Like a weed Mom always says...

Ok, maybe I can get Mom to post a little more often, especially since she got a digital camera that also takes videos and it is easy to upload to youtube or goodle video. We'll see...

Take care everyone!

XOXOXOX, Faith Marie

Mary Had A Little Lamb

I'm 3 now!!!

I'm three now! Can you beleive it?? I finally had my birthday party... even if it was a little late. Mom wanted to wait a little later in April in hopes that it would be nice weather and boy was it ever! It was beautiful and so was my birthday! I woke up that day to balloons and decorations all over the house! I even told Mom & Dad it was just beautiful! We had the party outside because it was so nice.

Here's a couple birthday party pics (thanks to Kandi!) to hold you over until Mom gets the time to upload and update my photo album. She did get a new one started here but then she messed up the rest of my 2 year album for 2006 :( and hasnt been able to get it to upload the rest of them for some reason.

Wow, it's spring already! It's been just beautiful here. Of course we get the rainy days too but Mom tells me that is just part of spring. And don't forget the big snow storm we got after spring arrive. But the weather turned around already. We've already planted red raspberries (yummmm!) and strawberries (double yum!).

Ok, need to run... cutting into my play time you know... talk again soon!

XOXOXOX,
Faith Marie

Faith In The Fall

Mom finally figured how to get this off her camera now that we knee deep in snow instead of leaves :) haha Let's see if this works now...

Brrrrr!!!

Happy New Year everyone! It's been some time again since the last update so I hope everyone had as wonderful of a christmas as I did! :) I really like christmas!

I don't have any new pictures to show you for this post because Mom has been too busy to get them off her camera! Can you believe that? You'll just have to trust me, she has ton of great pictures to add to the site soon. I make sure she takes pictures frequently because I ask her all the time to take pictures of me.

Well, thought I would just post a quick one tonight (I'm supposed to be in bed by now! haha) and let everyone know we are freezing up here! The nights are getting into the SINGLE digits and it's supposed to be getting even colder than that by this weekend. Like HIGHES in the single digits! I think it's time to visit Grandpa in sunny Florida, dont you, Mom?? I've heard that at least down there the weather is more suited to my tradition of running around with very little on :)

Take care, til next time!
XOXOXOXO
Faith Marie

Wow! Where'd this year go?

Ok, what happened to 2006? hehe Sorry for the lack of updates yet again! Mom has been sick (bronchitis!) and I went with Dad to Grandma's for a few days so she could rest and get over it. She is doing much better now. In fact she just updated my pictures on my site again, they can be seen here. If you are keeping up with my updates, the new pictures start at the bottom of this page and go through to page 10! wow! There sure are alot of pictures there now. Mom is wondering if anyone ever looks at them, so if you do could you post a comment here in the blog to let me know. I'll be sure and tell her :)

I helped Mom decorate the Christmas tree this year! That was exciting. You'll like the pictures she took. I have learned some christmas songs this year too. Among my favorite are "jingle bells" and "jingle bell rock" :) Oh, I learned another song too... it's called "Row, Row, Row Your Beat"! Mom insists it's BOAT but that doesnt sounds as good and I insist it's beat! hehe

Can't beleive Christmas is almost here!! Yipeee! I am soooo looking forward to it this year. We've had a little snow but it was gone pretty fast so I didnt get much sledding in yet. Looking forward to that too!

Well, guess it's time to go play. Might not be back till the new year so I'd just like to say Merry CHRISTmas and Happy New Year everyone!

XOXOXOX,
Faith Marie

I Can Do It Myself! Fall, Snow And More

Hi everyone! Wow what a fun time I've had in the leaves this fall! Then the other day it started to snow!! WooHoo!! I love the snow! Mom didnt seem to excited though... I dont understand whats the matter with her... something about it being to early. Whatever, but it is soooo much fun.

Before I forget again, be sure to check out the box on the right side on this blog. Mom figured out how to show these tiny pictures of some really cool things on my wish list at Amazon :) hehe

Mom just updated my website so go check out the latest pictures. I am so cute and I say the funniest things, just ask Mom! :) She recorded me on her MP3 player the other day singing "I love you" over and over again, maybe I can get her to upload for everyone!

My favorite thing to say right now is "I can do it myself!" well next to "Lets go outside!!" hehe

Well, there is more to report but I'll have to come back again later, it's lunch time and I want to watch it snow outside. So... all together now.... Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! :)

XOXOXOX,
Faith Marie

Raining, wet and cold here now!

Boy, its been a cold, wet rainy few days here. We were getting 80 degree weather then BAM! brrrrr! I can't even talk Mom into playing outside in the cold rain. Bummer....

We had another busy weekend this last weekend... went down to Aunt Linda and Unc Lyle's new house so Dad could help them finish re-roofing their roof. Spent the night then came home saturday night. Sunday afternoon we went to a family reunion! I had sooo much fun playing with the other little girls there but the big playground they had there was just the best ever!!! It had huge slides, a twisty slide and even a tunnel slide! That was a new experience for me. Even though it was cold and wet and everyone else didnt stick around, I wore myself out playing until I almost couldn't crawl up the steps anymore! lol fun fun fun Mom said it was nice seeing alot of relatives she hadnt seen in ages but I just know it was alot of FUN! :)

Time to go get into something hehehe

XOXOXOXOX,
Faith Marie
