Pics from our Texas Vacation

We're home! We had such a great vacation in Texas! First we went to visit Kim and Ash in Dallas. Then, we headed to San Antonio to see Aunt BB, Uncle Terry, Grandma, Grandpa, Deanna, and our good friends Lise and Aimee. What fun catching up with everyone! They were amazed at how much Savannah has grown and how much she's talking. That's our girl! She also took her first steps on our trip too - That's right - Our baby is mobile now - YAY! Our trips to Texas are few and too far between so, we really cherish our quality time with our family and friends. We love you guys and miss you bunches!


CUTIE PIE! Making cute faces at mama in the car.

Cuter by the day!

Our girl is going to be 14 months old tomorrow and she just gets cuter by the day! Here's a video of Savannah reading a book on her changing table (it's the only way she won't roll over mid diaper change) Enjoy!

Long Lost Friend ...

I've reconnected with my BFF from Middle School! Devon and I met in 7th grade and became instant friends. We've seen each other here and there over the years and always catch up where we left off like we saw each other last week. We went to dinner the other night and Savannah and Brian joined us. Dev couldn't wait to snuggle my girl. It was a walk down memory lane. We never would've thought 10 years ago (the last time we saw each other) that we'd be having dinner together and that I'd have a hubby and a baby joining us. Man, life flies by so fast! We've known each other for @20 years. I didn't think I was old enough to know someone for 20 years!! It was so comforting and wonderful to see my long lost friend! I've learned that when you have positive, uplifting relationships with people that you should hold on tight and not let them go. They are few and far between and I'm so blessed to have found my friend again!

Savvy and her books ...

Savannah LOVES to be read to. Starting when she wakes up in the morning until she goes to bed at night. Book is her favorite word. Here's a video of our girl hanging out in her chair with her books and stuffed animals. ...

Pics too...

Santa Fe Trip

Last weekend we took a day trip to Santa Fe. We met up with some friends and had lunch and walked around the Main Square visiting all sorts of great shops. It was lovely, relaxing and just plain great to catch up and hang out with our friends! Here's some pics ...

Talia, Brad and Savannah

Nikki and Savannah

Jade and Savannah


Okay, so there's a funny story that goes along with these next 2 pics...
We were walking along the street and Talia says, I've always wanted to stick my foot into that big hole in that tree over there so, being the supportive and encouraging friends that we all are we triple dog dared her to go and do it. Well, her shoe fell off so, she really had to go in after it. We all had a big laugh about it. Love ya girl!





Savvy strollin'. Her shoes didn't last long, they never do. Our girl would rather go barefoot.
She was enjoying the scenery. Adorable!

Nikki enjoying the sun

Beautiful Tulips!

Brad and Nikki - Too Cute!

Us - Lovin' Life!

Savvy and Grammy

Savvy and Grammy - Dancing

Savannah isn't walking on her own yet but, almost.
We practice with her all the time though, she'll take off when she's ready I guess.
No Idea where she gets that independent 'I'll do it when I'm ready' from? No Idea!

Snugglin'

How sweet are these two! Awwwww....

Savvy's 1st Chucky Cheese Party

Savvy ready for her first Chucky Cheese Party.

It was all a little overwhelming for our girl. She had fun but got a little freaked out a few times. I think rides will have to wait for a few more months.

Mommy and Savvy playing with the goody bag toys

NICE! Oh, this is so being sent to Boston Scientific Headquarters!
Isn't there a newsletter or something that this can be published in.
Check out The Albuquerque Team - So Funny!

Hunter - Too cute for words!

A Little Sun ..

After our picnic in the park yesterday our girl is a little pink in the face.

Picnic in the Park

We had such a wonderful time yesterday with our friends Koriann and her daughter Pami Jo. It was a gorgeous day and we had a picnic lunch packed fit for a Queen ( well, 2 Queens and 2 Princesses actually). We relaxed on a blanket under a big tree and the girls played while Kori and I chatted and caught up on life. What fun! Here's some cute pics of our beautiful day...


My girl was wearing the cutest little sundress. Awww.

Pami kept finding the best sticks. She was on an adventure. She just turned 2 and she's absolutely adorable! I am amazed at what I have to look forward to in the next year for Savannah. I can't believe that Savvy will soon be searching for sticks and running around like Pami. Too Cute!

What a sweet pic of Kor and Pami.
