They are growing too fast


This is a picture I took this morning after church. I can't believe that our babies are about to be eight months old! Still hard to imagine life before them.(Also, their dresses were made by ME!!!)

Happy Birthday part 2!

Friday night we had planned to go out to eat for Mom's birthday, but with the rainy weather we just ordered something and went to the new house to eat. Popa Jim was here so he spent most of his time playing with the girls and every once in a while he would speak to the rest of us! lol

Saturday, Jim and Mom came to our house so Popa Jim could see the girls some more. However, we got Maw Maw to fix Chicken and Dumplings and Potato Soup along with her famous cornbread for lunch and bring. Oh it was sooo good! I would take that as a birthday meal any day! It was nice having family time even if the weather was so bad!


Lainey was give out from all the birthday party fun!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to the best mom in the world!! ( well next to me! lol) Hope you have a wonderful day! I love you!

(in case you are wondering, yes that is me, lol, the night I graduated from High School and in case you are wondering I will NOT be visiting the blonde days ever again!)

And of course the two precious angels want to wish Moma D a HAPPY BIRTHDAY as well! We love you Moma D!

Another Busy Weekend


Once again, I feel like we are always on the go!!! But that is ok, gives me a reason to dress the girls up! :) Friday the girls and I surprised Dan for lunch and we all went to eat at our favorite "quick" meal place, Taco Casa. Some of Dan's co-workers came as well, so of course Dan enjoyed showing the girls off and the girls put on a show for them all. Then, the girls and I went and picked up Moma D and went and did our favorite thing...SHOP! :) Well, really I was looking for some new material to make the girls another dress, and I found some that is SOO CUTE!!! Friday night I went to scrapbook for a little bit, I am soooooo behind! Especially since I am having to do two books instead of one!!! I got 5 pages done for each book, but still have to go back and write things for each page. While I went to scrapbook the girls stayed with Moma D, but I had a curfew of being home by midnight, I was a few minutes late, but that wasn't the first time of me being past curfew! :) The girls and I stayed with mom Friday night and got up Saturday morning and did what we do best....went shopping! :) I had a few gift cards left over from Christmas that I wanted to finally use. It is so nice now getting to have girl time with mom again!


Things will slow down for a day or two...well maybe! :) They need to...I really need to clean house!

Miss us??

So, I have started out 2010 slacking on posting blogs, but we have been busy! So pretty much just going to give you a quick run through so far and post a few pictures.

Best thing so far in 2010....Moma D and Popa Jim are homeowners in ALABAMA!!!!! So that is what we have been doing the past few weeks, helping them get settled in. We have even had a few sleepovers as well!

The girls helping Moma D unpack a few boxes!

We also got to ENJOY (well most of us) watching Alabama play and WIN their 13th National Championship!!!! This is a cute shirt I found for the girls to wear(poor Dan told them he was sorry that he would probably never get to buy them one for his team)


Aubrey had to go to the Dr. She scratched herself under her nose and it got infected so off to the Dr we go and got the diagnosis of impetigo. Bless her heart she didn't let it get her down and it has pretty much all cleared up now.


Oh....did I mention that our precious angels are 7 months old now?!?!?! I can't believe it!!! They are really starting to let their sweet little personalities shine.

Aubrey is Dan to a tee. Not only does she look just like him, but so far she is the more quiet and shy one just like him. She can be satisfied for a good while with a toy and be content. Lainey....well...lol...she is just like me. She is going to be my "pay for your raising" child. ( just for the record...I was a good child, wasn't perfect, but I was good) She is more the outgoing one and has to have 10 toys to play with, but if she sees that one toy that Aubrey has and knows that Aubrey is having fun playing with it, she takes it from her and adds it to her pile. Don't forget, she did pretty much sit on Aubrey's head for almost 9 months!
They are both on the verge of crawling, they have the going backwards part down, its just going forward they haven't figured out yet, but SOON! Still no teeth, lots of drooling and here lately very cranky at times, so I see that happening soon as well!
The girls are sitting up alone now. They are "talking" all the time and it's sooo cute! You can hand them a phone now and they will wave to the person, but not say anything, it's too cute! Eating baby food or "groceries" as Popa Jim calls it like it is their job.



Since they are starting to sit up alone, they are now getting to ride in their "limo" minus the car seats. I almost cried the first time this happened



This is another great memory made. My grandmother came over one afternoon and I was trying to pick up in the house some, but it was time for the girls to have a bottle and a nap. So we got them fed and she rocked Aubrey and got her to sleep then in this picture she is rocking Lainey to sleep. She is the best grandmother in my eyes and soooo blessed to have her in my life and in Aubrey and Lainey's!


We hope all of you are having a wonderful and blessed 2010!!
