I just love this age that Sally is in, but try to get a picture is almost impossiable!! My sister did a great job though!! Capturing some of her looks and silliness is so much fun!! Owen is growing like a weed! or should I say a handsome flower!! He is about 4.5 months now and already weighs 20lbs! He is going to big and strong like his daddy. Wade calls him is little line backer but mommy hopes he picks a different sport!!! Being mommy of two is much more of a challenge but already seems like he has been apart of our lives forever. We all love him so much! I can't wait for all the fun family times we get to have together!! I am really looking forward to this Christmas season and creating some new family traditions!

so my sweet baby boy is here and growing like a weed! i can't believe he is already three weeks old!!! we are so proud of him and love him so much. its just amazing how they still your heart right away! he looks like his big sister and daddy for sure. he was 7 lbs 14 oz and 21 inches long! thankfully we think he is going to big and tall like his daddy. it has been so sweet to see sally love on him and tell us that owen is her best friend. she has adjusted so good and we cant wait to see them grow up together and all the fun times we will have together!

Disney World!

We just got back from Disney World! What a magical place it really is!! We had such an awesome time with the whole family and really didn't want to come home yet. Wade and I loved to watch as Sally took in all the sights and characters. How cool it is to see her reconize the princesses, Tinker Bell, and other Disney Characters. I love seeing the world through little eyes! To just believe that the characters are really real and you get to me them!!
Mom and Dad were meeting us at Disney from their trip to Isreal. They did great considering the 10 hour time change. Of course the grandkids gave them energy to overcome. They didn't want to miss out on anything!! They had a wonderful trip to Isreal. The church sent them there for their 20th anniversery at the church. I still can't believe we have been here that long!

one handed!

have you ever noticed how talented you are at doing things one handed that you never thought you could do? mommies do it all the time. like right now, trying to type one handed while sleeping baby is in the other. and who would want it any other way! its not very often that i get to just sit here and hold my precious gift.
i think of the incredibles movie all the time bc i think when they gave the mom stretchy arms they got it just right! how many times have i wished, "oh if i could just reach that!" while what ever i need is clear across the room! they must have asked a mom what super power would be best!
i am so glad to finally be feeling better from the first trimester blues! i love being able to play and laugh with my sally like normal. i know daddy is glad mommy is back to almost normal. well, as normal as you can be while prego!
God has truly blessed us with a wonderful life! not a day goes by without giving Him praise for His abundant blessings! Thank you Lord! you are so great! may You continue to bless us and may we continue to give you all the glory!

Fun in the Fall

So I have been acused of not updating my blog enough and I have to admit that I have been awful lazy about it! I have been awful lazy about everything lately!! For those of you that don't know yet... Wade and I are expecting number two!!! We are so excited and God has been so good to me because this pregnancy has been so diffirent already. No migrane headaches!!! Thank you Jesus!!
We took yellow cookies on a pink plate and blue frosting around to all our families and surprised them one night. I made a pink shirt for Sally to wear that said "Big Sis" on it. She was so cute. She thought all the fuss was about the cookies that she called "cake cake". We will have to work on the concept a little more! But we have a long time so I'm sure she will get it soon enough.






Halloween was so much fun this year! Last year Sally was scared of all the costums but this year we were totally into it.
This is my dad, Papa, with my baby sisters little one, Graham.


Reagan was just a little halloween princess. She was being a daddy's girl!


Carter and Ben, a little boy in my Awana's class.


Sally was a little lady bug and she loved to wear her sunglasses which totally made the outfit!


Bradley was a punk rocker! Such a big boy!


Isn't this the cutest little lion you have ever seen!!


Sally wanted to be just like the big kids when we went around the neighborhood. (long story, but those pics got earased!!) She wouldn't let anyone carry her or let me help her carry her candy bag. Papa showed up at the end and she decided it was ok for him to carry her! crazy girl!


These are pics from a pumpkin patch in Norman. We had a ton of fun playing on the hay bells, sliding, picking pumpkins, and doing a hay ride. I love the fall and all the fun pictures you can take.

So I am finally getting this pics up! we took so many that i'm sure you will get bored looking at all of them, but for those of you at work and already bored here ya go!!! I have put captions on all the pics so when you run your mouse over them it will tell you what you are looking at. Hope you enjoy and if you ever get a chance to go to Paris it is well worth it!!!!
