Long time no blog

Here are some photos from the summer time.

Ollie with her rainbows, mesh hat and sagging drawers. We didn't put any of those on her. She insisted on taking the hat of my head actually.

Like her parents she is obsessed with wearing rainbows.

She took a good spill the day before. Nothing but her pride was a little hurt.

Ollie making her babies kiss me.

Again with the stealing of the hat.

Mismatched shoes and smile.

The peanut gallery.

I am not sure if she thinks the potty comes out there too or if she just likes that hat.

First solo flight.

The thinker.

Back at the Barnyard is a two "bing bing" affair.

Apparantly there was a plot twist that she didn't see coming.

Overdue Update

2008-11-18T15:49:00.000-08:00

A long overdue update of photos. Ollie is getting big and super fun.

Ollie is a handsy stinker. She needs to touch everything.

Making faces/laughing at poppa.

Ollie in her old school football helmet.

When Sleepy Ollie Jumps and Nap Time

2008-10-02T18:32:00.001-07:00

This was last night. Tay was doing her hair and Ollie was tired, so Tay hurried to finish and by the time she was done.....so was Ollie.
Got her tongue sticking out and everything.
This is nap time on the floor with Chic and Buster. They obviously have a thing for the juice.

This video will take a while to load, but it is so funny. Ollie was sooo tired, but all she wanted was to jump.

Car Ride Entertainment

2008-09-30T09:41:00.001-07:00

OJ's head is so big it doesn't fit inside her hoodie.

Ollie was fussin in the car so I hoped in the back to entertain her. She's an easy audience or my biggest fan, I am not sure which.

Videos might take a while to load, but so worth it.

Kitchen Updates

2008-09-28T20:03:00.000-07:00

First things first. So we went to go fish my favorite spot and the water was doen like 35'. We couldnt even launch the boat so we fished from the shore. Oddly enough Jimmy caught the fish that Johnny is holding.

This is one big Crappie. Babes in the Bumbo

SERENITY NOW!

Ollie is in love with the dogs and they like and lick her back. She thought this was pretty dang funny.
Although she had the last laugh. However Chick loves the attention.

My buddy Jack Jack is the man. I spent the night at Megan's and when I woke up I find this little bugger eating the newly defined Breakfast of Champions.
That is Roasted Red Pepper "Hummas!" as Jack calls it. He eats it with a spoon.
So Tay went to Ross or something and bought this cute little milk jug looking vase. I needed somewhere to put my fishing rods and Viola! (yes mom I know) We had a fun spot for them.
Thought this was pretty funny.
Our newly finished back splash. Thanks to Uncle Johnny.

A yummy cake that Tay just made.

One Damn Cute Kid

2008-09-20T20:27:00.000-07:00

Getting Ollie ready for winter. If she ever needs to hide herself in a big pile cute she will be ready.

She likes it too.
The mittens were ridonkulously huge, but hilarious none the less.
I think this borders on child abuse. Look at that kids face.
This was intended to be a Halloween costume, but I will pretty much make Ollie wear it everyday.
I bought this camel in the Mall of the Emirates in Dubai.
She was digging the camel.

New jammies from Old Navy
This is called a Bumbo. She loves it. I put her on the couch and gave her the remote and she was all about those buttons.

Wednesday's Stuff

2008-09-10T09:13:00.000-07:00

Momma and Ollie.Cute lil stinker
Fistful of Dad's hair
The Fish Hook
Fighting for attention. If you notice Buster won because he is closest to Tay. The joke is they were both asleep before I took the picture.
The problem with being in the %61 percentile of height. The jumper is on the lowest setting and the lil bugger can barely touch the floor.
Chillin
She loves the Rainforest Jumper

Kitchen Cabinets for Lyn

2008-08-23T19:43:00.000-07:00

Happy birthday Mom. I am not much of a typer on Blogs I wanted to publicly thank you for all that you do for us. You are an amazing person and great example for everyone. We love you.

The Pelton's and Ollie

Photos of the Kitchen. It's missing some stuff like sinks faucets, back splashes you know......like the rest of it.

Ollie growing up

I am too tired for comments. I hope you enjoy mom and Emy

Sunday morning with a wide awake baby

2008-07-27T07:12:00.000-07:00

Ollie woke up and won't go back to sleep. We have informed her that Sundays are for sleeping. She doesn't get it. So I left the room and let Tay sleep. And thought I'd put some photos up.

So I tried to get baby to chill out while we cleaned the house, so I propped her up in front of the boob tube.

We didn't have any Baby Einstein of Backyardigans, so Seinfeld did the trick.

She obviously didn't mind.

OJ and Uncle Sammy

She is a naked squirmer.

Hangin with pops

Baby James aka Ollie

2008-07-21T22:17:00.000-07:00

Ollie in her new outfit.

Down for the count.

The next one might be my favorite picture of her.

She is totally fascinated with this new mobile from Aunt Shari and Uncle Marty.

She had enough of the camera in her face.

Passin the heat

2008-06-23T17:29:00.001-07:00

Buster is doing ok with a broken leg. Tomorrow we wee if he needs surgery. I hope he doesn't the poor guy has gone through enough. It makes me sad to watch him gimp around.

Now for some photos.

This is what happens when babies fall asleep with pacifiers. She's cute.

This is Megan's (sister)giving us the bird. There was no photoshop involved.

ME fulfilling the measure of my creation.

My pups.

Bri getting fresh with Buster. Kinda gross.

Captain Jack looking for scurvy pirates.

Missing my girls

2008-06-22T17:41:00.001-07:00

Tay and OJ are in Cali. It's quiet and lonely without them. Here is photo Tay sent me.

Buster decided to jump under the tire of my mountain bike. Poor little bugger has a broken leg.

Papa's Goofy Grin

For some reason the dogs have been way into synchronized lounging around. They just lay there and hang out.

O'Doyle Rules

2008-06-11T16:25:00.001-07:00

She is a handsy little bugger. She is always swatting the boobs or bottle and moving her arms. Even in her sleep.

I am gonna take more pictures and post them except for it's snowing....literally snowing and I refuse to do stuff in the snow....especially in June.

The Juice was supposed to be born today...but she was early

2008-05-13T10:03:00.001-07:00

Here is how Olivia "Lil Jaundice" Faulkner spent the first few days of her being. This was the absolute most relaxed that she was in the light box.

Olivia James Faulkner

2008-05-01T13:45:00.000-07:00

Momma bear the day before.

The lovely May weather in Logan

This was just before all hell broke loose. She was a champ and made it to 6+ cm and then had some back labor and tapped out. She got an amazing epidural that let her still feel contractions and push, but not be in a death spiral of pain.

She came out and just chilled. She has been really mellow.

Momma was real excited.

She fussed and moaned when the nurses were poking around and probing, other than that she has been mellow.

I am digging this little baby thing.

I got to give her the first bath. It was really neat. Babies are reesty, until the are lathered rinsed and repeated.

Again with the nurses poking around.

Big ol purple paws.

She was trying to suck her finger clean off of her hand. To her dismay, it didn't work.

Ollie dropped about a month and a half ago and was posterior, so her head was all bruised up and nose got smooshed up. Doctors say it'll pop out and it already is. She looks like a retired heavy weight boxer. Too cute.

Me and Ollie trying to sleep. Emphasis on trying. Baby rocks at sleeping. I am not so good.

The Baby Made It.

2008-05-01T10:40:00.001-07:00

Ok. Tay's water broke at 12:15pm. I raced home loaded up, forgot half of the crap that we needed and booked it to the hospital. So that we could wait until 3:45am for the little bugger to hit the deck. Everyone is happy, healthy and tired. The baby rules. She was posterior so her head is ultra aerodynamic, to put it gently, and her nose is smooshed like a retired heavyweight boxer. She is super alert and is looking around at everything. She was no Tongi baby, typically in the 12-18lb range, she was 6lbs 15oz and was 19.5 inches long. So cool to be parents. Scary as all hell, but cool.

I have to take a final and then I will post some pictures.

This is Bailey Betty Brown. She is so precious.

Grandma Lyn-E and Triple B

I got a new helmet and want to show it off. It's nice.....and clean.

Jack learns a valueable lesson in beauty.

He didn't like getting his haircut at all.

Then after he was like "Damn I look good" and appreciated the pain to get the gain.

John Boy and Jack. He picked up a sweet shiner. He looks like a little hooligan.

Jack and Fishing

Getting ready to go fishing. I put my hat on him and he loved it. He's so much fun.

Johnny training Jack. Note the concentration....on both of their parts.

Ethan bought Jack a new rod at Sportsmans. It's unbreakable and Jack tried to prove that it wasn't.

It looks cold and windy.

And it was. Look at the little dudes hair. It was howlin.

The House Preview
So here are a few pictures to entice you to come back and look at more.

Here are the wood floors that I put in.

Here is the baby's crib.

Another shot of the crib

Here is the rug I picked out for the baby's room

This is the story of my life. No, not on my knees showin my crack off, but working on the house and getting things ready.

The Wifey
Here is my beautiful wife carrying the munchkin. The baby is less than 3 weeks away. Pretty rad.

India, UK, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Bahrain

2008-04-09T14:39:00.000-07:00

So I found that the fastest and easiest way to post photos from my trip was to put them on my website. www.JFaulkner.us. I hope you enjoy if you care enough to look.

As far as stories go........ The one thing that I will say is that the Middle Eastern countries that I visited are awesome places. They were clean, friendly and the food was good. If you ever need more info let me know.

More of the pregnant wife on the next post. Mostly to appease my dear friend Rachel Waite, but also cause Tay is cute. And for the record Rach.... The dogs don't need to screen pictures before I post them. Tay does.

Something Witty

2008-03-31T20:48:00.000-07:00

Sadly with my Percocet addled mind that is the best I could come up with. Here are some photo updates.

Dog's running amuck at Kaitlins house.

Sometimes you just need a nice place to hang the ham. These dogs are inseparable.

My little afa princess.

Here's Buster hamming it up

Ya. She's not cute at all.
The dogs were having a blast with Kaitlin's nephew

Stay tuned for photos from my 13 day 25,000 mile trip to Manchester, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Bangalore. So self important. I love it.

How I am livin

2008-03-27T10:02:00.000-07:00

So yesterday I had reconstructive surgery on my sinuses. What a mostly miserable event. I am bleeding alot and am pretty bruised up, but am not at work, so that is nice.

Here is another pic of the puppies. They have the whole back of the car to themselves, but they choose to lay on top of each other. Pretty sweet.

Stay tuned for more pics of pregnant wife and the house. As soon as I can find the cable to connect my camera.

Kim's Post- This is what happens when I make obligatory posts.

2008-02-22T17:22:00.000-08:00

Kim this one is for you.

And so this wasn't a total waste of your time. Here are the puppies first time in the house.

And here are the cuddlin pups one more gain.

Sleeping Dogs

2008-02-17T17:28:00.000-08:00

These dogs are absolutely hilarious. It is fun to have two from the same litter.

This is Buster. He is the boy dog and is little chub. He eats all his sisters food.

This is Chick. She is the alpha. When she gets mad she puts a hurtin on him.

Tay all pregnant and stuff

2008-02-17T15:32:00.001-08:00

This is Tay after church. She was all made up so we decided to take some pictures.

With our '06 Tax Return, that we received last month, we decided to buy a new camera. We got a Canon Rebel XTi and it is awesome.

Dogs on a hike. Too tired to do more.
