Didn't make the cut...

So, after trying to figure out an economical way to make Christmas pictures, I've decided that it is always best just to pay someone when you have a 2 and 1 year old!!! While I'm saving the few good ones I got for the Christmas cards...here are some outtakes (sp?) from the Christmas pictures I took with the kids! I am most def. not a photographer, but the attitudes on these pictures are too hilarious not to share!!!

Things to be thankful for...

What an awesome Thanksgiving we've had. Last Saturday, we had lunch with Kevin's side of the family. On Thanksgiving Day we had lunch with Gincy's side of the family. While we were at Poppy's house (Gincy's Grandfather), I took some pictures of two of the things in my life I am most thankful for.....

I am also thankful for my family and friends and the blessed life that God has allowed me to have. Thank God for the blessings in your life each day.....

Fall Fun

We had our fall festival at church this weekend. I didn't take any pictures during the festival (too busy chasing toddlers) but I did get some cute pictures of our Dalmation and Fireman before we left!

my #1 reason for not blogging...

I'm pretty sure my eyes are closed and that this is a horrible picture of me--but it's not all about me :) The reason I've been MIA from blogging is because it's "marching season" (for some..football) and I've been spending my time with the Heritage Drumline! That time paid off this past weekend when we were awarded the Best in Class and Best Overall Drumline in the Heart of Georgia Band Competition. It wasn't an easy competition either. There were 7 bands in our class and quite a bit in the entire competition. While I am a very proud "mama" to these kids and very happy that they did so well this season, I'm also very happy to have more time to spend with my kids! (and catch up with life!)

Where do the months go?

Wow..it's been a month since I've posted. I apologize for my abesence! We've had a wonderful time with Fall Football and marching band and have been super busy lately!

Carter turned 14 months last week! He's jabbering away and finally getting some teeth (two on top, one on bottom).

Liliana is potty training...not mommy's favorite thing AT ALL!!! There's just nothing fun about it! But hopefully we can get it down and this stage will be over. It is pretty cute to hear and see Carter try to use the potty and say "peepee" every time Liliana goes to the potty! I think he might be a little easier to train with such a good role model! :)

Catching up!

Wow.. the start of school has gotten me behind with blogging. I am back! I've got to do a better job of it! :) Life is a little crazy with two toddlers..but I'm loving every minute of it! (well ..most of them... :))

Big Girl Bed

Liliana has moved up to a "big girl bed". Kevin changed her crib into a day bed-with a little bit of help from Liliana of course. She's slept in it every night since then without any trouble! We knew it was time to change the bed over because she had been asking to sleep on the floor for the past week or so. After she slept on the mattress on the floor for a week, we decided she was ready!

Such a Big Girl! She's growing up so fast and turning into a beautiful little girl!
