Baby Anabelle

This weekend, Lily and I drove down to Michelle's baby shower. We decided to stay the whole weekend so we could help her get the nursery ready. I really enjoyed the mother-daughter time with Lil. She has such a beautiful spirit and it makes spending time with her such a joy. She is loving, sweet, funny and just an amazing blessing in my life. At some point in the shower she ran over to me and in her not so quiet voice said, "Mommy, I want a baby sister". My mouth dropped...I'm still trying to figure out which one of the girls put her up to it.

Park

The kids waited anxiously for daddy to return from the UK game with Bobo. When they woke up from their nap, he was here and all they wanted to do was cuddle with him in the bed. Eventually we headed over to the park to run some energy off. They had a great time on the rope swing and the slide while Nonny and I played a competitive game of badminton.

Going...Going...Gone

Lily decided to try the swinging ropes at the playground today...

Truvy's Salon

Well my daughter's new hobby is a painful one. Anyone that walks in to our house with any length of hair is subject to her pulling and yanking hair into a rubberband. She says she's "prettying" you. I think I have another word for it...its called torture!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMIE!!!

You are beautiful today and always...Wish we could be there to celebrate your birth...

Throwback Tuesday

This week is spirit week at school and I decided to dress up for one day. With the help of Stef and Kendra, I was able to borrow a poodle skirt and letterman's jacket. And of course, I have Robbie's class ring on my finger to show my adoration for my one guy...

Lily Bean Gets New Jeans

Yesterday while the boys were working, the girls went shopping to pick out some new jeans for Lily. It was a special trip because she has been asking to get some new jeans for quite some time. The child keeps growing so quickly that I can't keep clothes in her closet. She is almost as tall as her brother and wears the same size as he does. Anyway, we picked up three pairs of jeans and she was so excited to put them on this morning. She wanted everyone to see her backpockets because of the sparkly buttons. When I tried to snap a picture of her, she immediately turned around for a picture of the back. I can see visions of a long legged, photogenic, spirited girl taking pics of her new blue jeans. WOW!!! Might be too much for daddy to handle...
