Awwww, how sweet....

Many of you know that earlier this year, I was making meatloaf and put my wedding ring on the counter so it would not get all meaty and nasty. Well, I threw it away and was so upset....jump ahead now to Wednesday evening...I had gone out, without the girls, to dinner with a bunch of ladies from church. When I came home, Bryan and I had a RIDICULOUS fight, his fault, of course...I cried (always works!!!) he apologized (like he should!) and felt bad (good, it worked!)...just when I thought I had married a donkey, he pulled out a box from Na Hoku, a Hawiian jewelry store that I love. In the box was a beautiful ring. He was going to wait till we were on our cruise to give it to me but was too excited and couldnt wait. It is similar to the one I threw away....if you remember what that was. It is a band with what looks like floating princess cut diamonds, 7 of them! So, moral of the story...if you cry hard enough you get diamonds...I think thats what the moral is supposed to be. I dont know...thats what I got from it!!

This goes out to everyone....

For all of you family and friends reading this, we miss you all and love you and hope to see everyone soon. Like we have said before, since we are so bad at traveling out of state, you are all welcome to come see us anytime! We have several marked off the list...Amy, Mom, Dad and Mark in a month, Lisa in a few months, Lisa-Anny-Panny soon...but the rest of you need to come now!! I mean it. Anyone is welcome! Carol, I get it...you wont be here....but the rest of you, if you are ever anywhere near Orlando, or anywear in Florida, call, stop by, anything, I am desperate....not really, just miss our loved ones. All right, I will stop begging. Love you all!!!

So, dad, this is what is looks like...well, sort of. It is just a portion of what you will see. There is so much more to it. The girls are so excited to show you their new home. Cant wait to see you!

mmmmmmm....

Mommy let us make cookies in her new kitchen before she did....

Fun in the sun

We got a slip and slide for Maddie's birthday! It was so much fun. We were a little hesitant at first but mommy said she would show us how to do it. We had a blast. We are still not sure if she had more fun than us, but we had a good time. Maddie was naked. She thinks wearing panties is better than a swim suit! Mommy said that we wore it out and we could not bring it to the new house. We dont mind though. We have the fountains and pool to play in. It was fun while it lasted! Thanks mammaw!

Look what I can do!

My parents have been a little worried about me recently. See, I have two sisters who are over-achievers and started walking, well, running, at 9 months. Mom and Dad know that is not normal, but when I turned 1 and still had not taken any steps, they were getting annoyed. I know it frustrated them. But you know what? I am going to let you in on a little secret...I have known how to walk for a while. I am just the smart one and I know that mommy will carry me if I pretend I can only crawl. She caught me walking a couple times, which I then quickly sat down. Oops! Well, this past Saturday, gave in...they were bribing me with too many goodies...I had to! So, now I am a 14 month old walking machine. I love to push Maddie around in my car. She thinks she is the queen. I even learned this cool trick where I stand on my head and look at everyone upside-down. Pretty cool the things I can do now that I gave in to the walking thing. Now, when am I going to let them know that I can talk.....

Busy, busy!

So much going on since the move. My birthday was last week. Bryan took off work and took me furniture shopping. Then we went out for dinner here in Harmony. Soooo good! Most of our days are spent at the park or pool. We go to the lake occasionally, but too many gators for little girls to be around. Bryan has been busy building docks. But, for the most part, we are settled. Last week we were about to go to bed when we looked in our front yard and there was a big Florida Panther. Amazing and beautiful! So cool to have that kind of wildlife here. Chloe is feeling better after her ear infection last weekend. I let it go too far without seeing a doctor. When her fever spiked 104, I knew it was time. So, after all that, she is fine! Mom came out today to spend time with us. The girls had so much fun. These pics are from today. I promise more to come from around our town! Love ya all and miss you all something terrible!

Baby kisses are the best!
