Visits, snow, and big girl beds!

That's right! It's been a while and so much has happened! As most of you know that read my blog (when I write in it) Kellan has been out here! Yippee!!! It was great. I don't want to go into too much of what we did because she blogged about it also. I just want to say that it was great having her here and though it's been such a long time since we've been able to spend some quality time together, it felt like we were just together the day before. It's really great when you have friends that you haven't seen in a long time and you can pick up right where you left off the last time you were together! I love you Kel!

The last day Kellan was here, we were graced with snow! It was amazing...we're entering our second year out here in Miss. and to have been able to let my children play in snow was wonderful! We woke up around 7:00am on Saturday morning to this...





An hour later, this is what my truck looked like...




Christian loved it! Here he is playing in it...





Brooklyn was a different story, I'll just let you look at the pictures.




We had a great time watching Kellan and Sheila have a snowball fight in which poor Kellan was pelted a couple times by large, wet snowballs. Sheila's a good aim for being so small (5'3") and over our divider fence!

We took a weekend trip up to Bartlett, Tennessee to visit our friends Bill and Shawna Guffey. Shawna is pregnant with their second child, Molly and little Aidan is getting so big now! Us play group Mommies were holding Shawna's baby shower for her and were even fortunate enough to get Bill to watch the kids one night so we could all make it out for dinner. Yes, he tackled watching all 8 of the kids! Our good friend Amanda even flew out for the shower, which was a surprise for all of us.


Sheila, Hollie, Kassie, Shawna, Amanda and myself! Poor Bradley wanted in the picture too!

Speaking of big person beds...Brooklyn is now sleeping in her own big girl bed! Sunday night, I took the front of her crib off and transformed her crib into a toddler bed! She climbed right up into it, pulled the blankets over her and told me nigh, nigh! She's getting so big!




And some random snapshots from this morning!
