25 Random Things

1. I married my best friend and together we have brought into the world two of the sweetest blessings!
2. I never thought I would love being a mom as much as I do.
3. My son Trey completely changed my life for the better!
4. Before Bobby was my husband, he was my "favorrite sixth grader", all because he gave me a cookie he made in cooking class!
5. My dad became a whole lot smarter to me once i moved out of the his house.
6. Because I've now realized number 5, I wish I had listened to him more!
7. Other than Bobby, my mom is my best friend. You've never met a woman like her. If you have met her, consider yourself blessed!
8. I have a special relationship with my Meemaw and really do believe she will be the frist woman to live until she's 135. (simply because I do not think I can live without her)
9. I have really great memories of my childhood with my sister.....we had a love/hate relationship that only sister's can perfect!
10.. My sister and I used to make bikini tops out of our washcloths in the bath when we were little.
11. I made up a song when I was about 5 called "duck down and say you're sorry". It was awesome.
12. My dad and I used to put our hands on our hips, shake them back and forth, and say "95...95....95, 95, 95!" Don't ask, but it was really fun back then.
13. Hey Linds, remember when we stranded Dad on that bridge between Jordan and Israel....again, that was awesome.
14. The funniest thing in the world in when my mother in law said she wanted to put an electirc fence up to keep the alligator away......she didn't realize that we would have to catch the alligator to put the electric collar on him!! Everytime she visits, we still have a good laugh about this.
15. Bobby has really managed to spoil me even more than my parents did. I’m not talking material wise because we are oh so poor, but socially/emotionally/relationship-wise I am high maintenance and expect a lot because he gives a lot!
16. Everytime Elizabeth smiles at me, a little part of my heart melts. Everytime she sleeps through the night, a little part of me rejoices.
17. I love how much my mom loves her grandchildren.
18. I really, really like chocolate. Totally have unhealthy attachment issues there.
19. The Grace that God has freely given me blows my mind……how wonderful it is that although I continue to mess up and disappoint myself, God keeps on lovin’ me!
20. I have a special place in my heart for the unborn……one day, when time allows, I would like to volunteer at a crisis pregnancy center.
21. When I was little I heard that there would be apples in heaven, so I asked my mom if there would be peanut butter in heaven too because I really liked them together.
22. Bobby and I struggle to say “rivalry week”. You try and say it, it ain’t that easy!:)
23. My brother Drew was the funniest baby/toddler. Dad asked him, “Drew do you want a spanking?” and He is the only kid in the world who ever said YES!
24. Please Lord, move me closer to my Mama.
25. Bobby, I love you!:) (hopefully this is not random to him!!!:)
Thanks for reading my ramblings I created between 559-627 AM. Yes it did take me that long.

Sleep.....

....is a precious thing!! I am in Georgia right now and my mom and I are absolutely exhausted!!! Elizabeth is acting like something is not right.....she is still on antibiotics from her ear infections, so we are wondering if maybe she is getting teeth. She gets up at 5 and goes ALL day long! I mean there is really no break, not even a really good nap anywhere in there. We tried to run some errands today and it was not as enjoyable as it could have been...I did get some cute stuff for the kiddos though!! I love being at home and spending time with the family. I really wish Bobby could be here with us tho....hopefully the Privateers will pull off a good win tonight! I will post some cute pictures when I get home on Monday.

Throw me something Mister!!!


Happy Mardi Gras! Trey's school had a mardi gras parade and all the Prek4 students got to decorate their floats (wagons) and throw beads to the whole school. My sweet man saved the rose he is holding for his MAMA!:) He had a blast and we had so much fun watching him. We only wish Grandma had been here because she is the Queen of Mardi Gras and catches ALL the beads!! :)

7 months old ALREADY!!!

Today Elizabeth is 7 months old and I really cannot believe it. Time has flown by and it makes me sad that my sassy baby will soon be walking all over the place. She continues to keep me very busy and right now has a double ear infection, so that is NOT FUN! We leave to spend a week with my parents tomorrow. Trey is very excited.....I'm just hoping Elizabeth doesn't scream the entire time on the plane!!! So if you think about, say a little prayer for our travels tomorrow. I will update with some pictures very soon.

Dancing Baby
















I really wish I knew how to put videos on here because Elizabeth has learned how to dance!! Everytime you put music on, she starts rocking back and forth. It is the cutest thing. She also laughs everytime her big brother comes around and does something silly. Really, all he has to do is look at her! I will have to work on increasing my knowledge of the video camera.:)

Bobby's parents were just out here for a visit and it was a great time....Elizabeth and Trey both love having their grandparents here. I am so happy that they get to spend time around family and get to know them....we are looking forward to a lot of time on the beach this summer.

Mardi Gras parades have already started up here....it's always a fun time. Trey loves yell "Throw me something Mister!" and catch the beads! We won't be here for the actual day of Mardi Gras because we fly out that day to spend a week with my mama, but we will get to experience enough before. Trey's class gets to ride in the floats (wagons) at his school parade and so we will soon start working on decorating his float...he has his heart set on being the King of the parade, but we will just have to see!!
