Water Play ...

We are having so much fun with our Mommies group! (MOMSClub.org) We go to the park atleast twice a week and have lots of different events to look forward to. Last week we went to a new park that has water jets that come up from the ground. The kids had so much fun splashing and getting wet. Savannah got so tickled, our friend Kate ran through with her, she loved it! Here are some cute pics and an adorable video. Smooches!





Cody, Savannah and Mason - playin' in the water.



Cody is 1 day older than Savannah. What cuties!

Mason's reaction to the water was pure joy! It made me want to be a kid again.

So proud of my sister ...

Vanessa graduated - YAY! She's been so involved in high school. On the Tennis Team, On Student Council all 4 years, managing the Soccer Team, Etc. I'm so very proud of her. Here are some pics of the special ceremony which was combined with a few other schools. It was so emotional seeing her walk to get her diploma. Cheers to you Vanessa! You can do anything you set your mind and heart to do. Go with your instincts. Surround yourself with encouraging, uplifting people. Ignore and weed out the people that aren't. Set your sights high. Be Persistent and Take Initiative and you will go far. Love You Babe!

15 months ...

Our baby girl turned 15 months on Saturday. She is walking around so well now and she got so excited the other day I thought she was going to break out into a run. It was so cute to watch. Here are some pics of our baby who isn't so much of a baby nowadays. Tear. We're enjoying every minute of it.

She spots the camera - She's comin' to get me!

Snuggle baby

Snugglin' with my girl

In the entertainment center that I've told her 100 times not to get into.

What a little poot!

With her new little friend Mikaela. We've made some great new friends since we've been hanging out with The MOMS Club. Fun!

Busted getting into the books that Mama had JUST put away. How can I be upset at that sweet face. P.S. That outfit is a 6-9 month outfit. She's still so tiny.

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!

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!
