Some Pic's:


We had the opportunity to visit Michael and Kristy in Las Vegas. Here is a picture of the whole family at Ihop!!

I'm not sure why I look stiff here, prolly because I had 3 kids running around in the stuido in front of me with expensive camra's ect...

Lexie and Daniel taking an ice cream break in my new favorite place, Geneva, Chicago! :-)


Chris and I waiting in Circus O ley in Las Vegas! Very fun show.


Emileigh... I'm going to say she was 7 or 8 months here.

So....I LOVE this picture. at first they did not want to take pictures together, so I bribed Daniel in wearing this hockey helmet...He was loving that, Then Lexie wanted to hold a rose. This picture was done all on them, we did not have them pose for this. They naturally just started looking into each others eyes. Looks like a love story. But there cousins!

Here is Dad with the girls. Again this was takin a couple of months ago!


Here is a photo shoot I think we did several months ago! Here all all the Bowman cousins!


We went to Chicago for a couple of weeks. This is a fun picture. Look into the silver ball thing. You will see downtown Chicacgo. I am also in this picture with the girls! Where is Waldo...LOL

Happy New Year

Happy New Year! I cant believe it is 2009! I have been a bad blogger. It has been 8 months since my last post. A lot has been going on...

Miss Emileigh is 1 years old now! She has 2 bottom teeth, says Dada and thank you. She is the size of an 18th month old! She has started to take a couple steps on her own. She is a very delightful! She keeps us very entertained with what she does. She likes to play on her own in her playroom. She enjoys playing with her walker, blocks, her drum set and her little kitchen. She is just starting to sleep through the night :-) I took her this weekend to get her ears pierced..She did not like that very much, but after 1 minute, she forgot all about it. BUT, one earring fell out in her bed, so we have to wait for it to heal, and take her 1 more time. I am so sad and a little flustered about it because I cant stand to see her cry or be hurt...when its ME that wants to have her ears pierced. I am debating taking out her 1 earring and waiting tell shes wants to get them done.

Lexie, Lexie Lexie...She is 4 1/2 and quite a handful. She has picked up a ' I can do whatever I want attitude' and yes she says it just like that too. Word for Word. I have no idea where she got that from, unless my Mom is showing her home movies of when I was 14! Uggg. Lexie has always been so good, and very well mannered. We would get compliments from everyone how nice and respectful she is. LOL! We will be making a 'Lexie's Rule Chart' this week. We will be making a HUGE poster board and posting it in the kitchen so she doesn't forget it!She will be making it with me. We will be doing Lexie boot camp this month or until however long it takes. Other than that, she is doing very well in Pre-Kindergarten, and absolutely loves it. She enjoys riding her bike and playing with the neighbor kids. She has never really been into Barbies or Babies, but she has a collection of animals. She got a litter of puppy's for Christmas and she feeds them, gives them baths, [with real shampoo, that was a fun clean-up] gives them medicine, ect. It is very cute.

For me, I have had the opportunity to go back to work. I do work in North Scottsdale, so i travel an hour in half each way, but I am getting used to it and some days enjoy the peaceful, alone quite ride :-) I am an Internet Marketing Manager for a Search Engine Optimization. Basically I help Internet Websites get on the first couple of pages of Google, Yahoo MSN ect. I really like my job and am blessed to have a job! Some days it is very hard to leave my kids, but we have a great babysitter named Helena! We are looking for a babysitter on Tuesdays and Thursdays if anyone can help out! We just passed our 1 year moving into our house. I still do not have all my projects done.. Right now I am decorating and painting the girls playroom! Hopefully in the next month I can post pictures of it done!

For Chris, He is trying to stay busy with his company, Jaeden Developments! This economy has really hurt him for business, but it does allow him to stay home with the girls more! Emileigh is wrapped around his finger. Me and Chris are still so happy.

I apologize for not updating our family blog as much as I wish I could. I will post pictures shortly :-P

Love you all,
Rachael
