Two Years Ago...

Big, swollen, emotional were 3 good words to sum me up. This time 2 years ago, we had finished up a family dinner at my parents house & I was rocking Emma Kate to sleep. I was overcome with emotions running through me.  I told her how much I loved & adored her, she would always be first my baby, how sorry I was if this was a trying time with a newborn & her not even being 11 months old, & that I wasn't sure how I was going to do it (being 2 kids less than a year apart!), but I would try my hardest everyday! Also, I just wanted her to know that my love for her would still be just as strong as ever!
Two years later, I can say that I'm emotion again. Something inside me gets emotional right before my kids birthdays. I just cannot imagine life without them! I thank God every day for knowing exactly what me & our family needed to be complete (i.e Jackson Reid).

My Birthday Gift Arrived

It was a "big" birthday for me & BH really came through for making it special. He did 3 gifts for me: a monogram initial necklace, a trip coming up to Mexico with my college BFF's/spouses (big deal for us to pull this off with 5 couples & us having 2 kids!), & custom window treatments/curtains. Yes, my age is reflecting when I'm this thrilled over curtains for my living room! I wanted to show off some before & after pictures (sorry they are all taken with my iphone & at night). I love the way they finish off the room & add a touch of design/color.

 Sad lonely room & window...

 Now a happy, framed window that makes a finished look!

One More Feb. Park Day

Superman at the park is always fun! There was flying across the air & hanging onto your BFF!!

 Melts me!!

 Love her expression!

 Emma Kate's 1st time to "monkey bar" to another bar yay! Her tongue sticking out is major concentration.

February Had Some Fun Park Days

My least favorite month is February, just a little fact about me. However, this February was pretty great! We had mild winter weather so we were outside quite a bit. :) The park is a favorite spot by my little people!

 Lets roll!

 "Taking a nap" they said.

 They make me very happy!!

 "Mama help me step over!"

 "What? You said I can do it myself!"

Sliding together. The beginning of many more duo slides!

 "Watch us, Pop!"

 Haha!! Funny sight!

 Triple slide race

 "Girls Morning" Brunch with Mommy & Sara. Then park time. :)

Daddy's turn :))
