So I post every now and then...but only if I have a picture to share. Today I thought maybe just maybe I should post on what the heck we have been doing the last while, because I know you are all dying to know. So back in December we started working on our basement and I am happy to say it is getting closer and closer to being done. We have had a lot of it contracted out...well most of it. If it is something that Chris and I have done...chances are we had to do it three times...because nothing works out for us. In our laundry room we had to have 4 closet doors custome made because they are not the standard size....when we went to hang then realized that they were hollow and they would just fall off...so they were pretty much ruined. Suck! Don't worry glue worked! Hanging Cabinets, hooking up toilets, tiling, and base boards...seriously we suck at this stuff. So anyway we are now painting...which I am doing on my own since Chris HATES painting. I only have the main room left...so we will see how long it takes for me to get that done.
Chris is still working for West Jordan City...doing what he does for them. I know he works for the Parks and Recreation but I honestly couldn't tell you what he does from day to day. I think it involves a bunch of everything. I am still working for Ricoh (used to be Lanier) 71/2 years...I am not quit to my tanning salon years...sadly I worked there for 101/2 years (maybe i shouldn't tell people that). I love my job somedays and hate it the others. I am the administrative manager here so I have to do all inventory control (we sale copiers) and do commissions and help our sales team sale. Little Owen...well not so little any more will be 4 in July. I can't even believe that. He is amazing! He has this huge imagination and just loves to play. He is so smart and catches on to everything so quickly it is scary...except colors...a little weird...but he can't get it down. Oh and he will not go poop in the toilet no matter what I buy him, promise him...he will not do it. Bribary is not working with this kid...I need another idea. Noel is still cute and fun and loves her frisbee. She is getting super fat since I hate walking her in the winter. As for any additions to the family...we want another baby...I always said I wanted a girl...but at this point I might settle for another puppy...we will just have to wait and see what happens.
We are going to Disneyland in May so excited...it really is the happiest place on earth. We took Owen when he was 2 and every picture I have of him he is crying...but he really did love it. He is way excited this year...he is hoping to see Jack Sparrow and Captain Hook...but I don't really ever remember them walking around...so disapoinment may be in his cards. So really other then our basement...our lives are just as perfect and boring as always.

Hol- I'm so glad you posted an update. I seriously keep checking your blog and it is so good to hear what's been going on with you and your little fam. You guys sound SUPER busy. I'm way impressed that you've been doing so much stuff yourself! We are just starting to get bids for our basement and I don't think I want to do ANY of it. Bad huh. I can't wait to see yours once it's all done. I miss you!!
we serioulsy had most of it done. framing, dry wall, heating, plumbing...we just had the bathroom tiled as well....after trying to do the laundry room we decided...hell no! but painting and the little stuff...we are managing just fine.
I am so glad that you posted. I was wondering where or where did my cute cousin go? I love reading about everyday stuff, that is why we have blogs! I think I post too often, I would actually post more but I know I would be looking like I have nothing better to do. I really dont though. I remember you use to work in the tanning salon. I hope to be at a job that long! Please have another baby, we need some excitement in the Tillmann brood!
I love your new post... I check everyday I swear... late at night when my house is nice and quiet, and I am exhausted.
Maybe owen is colorblind... Jared is and so I worry about our boys, I need to look into it.
About the poop thing.. I don't know, I think I got lucky once they weren't smearing it on the walls and they
just have pee accidents so far.
Does your pediatrician have any suggestions?
hey Hol!!! how are you?? Well actually I shouldn't ask that because I just read it. I am glad to hear about the happenings in your life..you know me love to keep tabs on my friends in Utah... I love and miss ya....hope to see your basement soon.
