A Long Time

Wow, I guess it has been a long time. Usually I am the blog police, but I have been slacking. Not a ton to say, but I will share some random thoughts and things that have happened since I wrote last. Life has been a little crazy getting last minute things done for Gracie's Little Sister's arrival...any day!!! My friend Amy had a little get together to celebrate the event. Tons of pictures were taken, but here is one of my favorites.



The three prego girls. Myself, Teri,(due in July with a boy) and Amy (due in September with TWO boys...no that isn't a typo.) We had a wonderful night chatting, eating great food, and getting adorable little outfits. I as so thankful for family and friends who love me and my family.

The next day was the day we went to the park and Gracie fell on her head. So sad. It looks a lot better. (picture to come...maybe) That night we celebrated Brycen's 30th birthday. We hung out at a park and enjoyed one of the last cool nights in Phoenix.

The following weekend, we had a shower for our lifelong friend across the street...Shannon. She and her husband flew in from California. It was great to see her again. Here is a picture of Hayley, me, and Shannon at the shower. (We were having some photographer problems. I think we took this shot about 15 times...not joking.



Hayley and I attempted the hard task of making a mobile for Shannon's baby. His name is Jack and he is due 8/8/08. His room is done in elephants. On one wall, Shannon and her husband painted a giant Dumbo...it looks amazing. We decided to make a mobile to go in the room. Here is Dumbo and the mobile.







This was sometime in the last two weeks, we gave the pigtails another shot. I know the first one isn't the greatest picture, but look how cute she is!!!





Well, that is what has been going on. I hope you all out there have a wonderful weekend. I think it is going to be hot here in Phoenix. Don't hold your breath, but the next entry might just reveal the identity of Gracie's Little Sister...you never know!! Love you all and hope to hear from you soon!

A Place to Remember

I wanted to have a place that I could remember all the things the girls do as they are growing up. They change so fast and life is just a little to busy to always make time to write it all down. I hope that one day, they will be able to read all the good times we shared and remember some of their own.
