Sponge Bob

We were in Wal-mart the other day and as we passed the little girls clothing section, Lainey yells out "SpongeBob". She had spotted some SpongeBob PJ's and she was not leaving without them. Since she never really ask for anything I, being the sucker I am, bought them. She was the happiest kid in the world. You would have thought she won a million dollars or something. All I heard the rest of the way in the store was "thinks momma" aka Thanks momma. She was all smiles. She wouldn't even let the cashier scan them. I had to take the tag off. She had made a new best friend, so as I am putting her in the car to go home she says " No momma, I wear SpongeBob Jammies now" I then tell her no baby you can wear them after I wash them. She them replies "wipes peese" She had it all figured out. She was going to clean them with a baby wipe so she could wear them now. I thought that this was so cute, so I let her clean them and put them on her. She was so Happy. --RM

New Additions are God's Greatest Gifts...

We have welcomed a new addition to our family. My Brother and his wife had a baby boy on Monday, October 13th. He weighed in at 8lbs 1 ounce and 20.5 inches long. He is so cute and his big brother is so proud. It has been so exciting and has made me want another baby. There is nothing like the smell and touch of a new baby. As a good friend once told me "if I could only bottle up that new baby smell, I would be rich." But then reality sets in when its 3am and you are running on fumes and he is crying and your body is aching and you stop and say to yourself "what was I thinking" this is when I realize, do I really want to do this all over again. And my answer is....I don't know... ~ME

FALL IS IN THE AIR

It's finally Fall time and we are full speed ahead. Annalia is enjoying pre-k and improving her skills daily. She has started dance and loves it. It is so cute to watch all the little 4 year olds dance. They are absolutely precious. Lainey on the other hand has started to speak in full sentences now. She went running in the kitchen the other day to show grandma her new purchase she said " look maw, I got new shows" My mom was shocked at how well she said it and how excited she was about them. She loves shoes, hats and bracelets. She is my girly, girl!

As for Brad and I we are getting ready to start our new home. We have been talking with the builders daily and picking out colors. I feel like I am overwhelmed at times. So many decisions and so little time. I didn't realize how much stuff is involved in building a house. Brad and I are so passive that we have a hard time making the final decisions.

This weekend we went to the Corn Field Maze aka Seward Farms and had a blast. The girls loved all the outdoor activities. I even got in on a little of the fun myself. We enjoyed being together as a family. This was the first weekend in a while that we were both off together the whole weekend. It was awesome and we had a lot of family bonding!

Well, that's it for now.--ME--
