Miss Walks Alot

Abbi was so cute tonight. she waddled around all over the living room this evening. she has only taken a few steps a couple of times, and not even in the past week!! She kept going tonight, it was so cute. She seemed pretty proud of herself too.

Reagan has a favorite "party" outfit these days. every chance she gets she puts on this lavender outfit, she especially likes to dance in it. I had to sneak it in the wash tonight. she's pretty cute, even if her clothes may be a little stinky!

We are very happy that nate is back home. his flight came in yesterday, no problems. Reagan ran into the living room when she heard him. nate picked her up and held her for awhile, she had the biggest, sweetest smile on her face as she laid her head on his shoulder. it was so sweet. Abbi rattled off some "dadas" for him. =)

That's all the updates i have for you today...have a great week!
(sorry no pictures today)

SNOWED IN!!!

I'm happy to say that we are snowed in today, and there is not even that much snow!



They are calling for ice sometime this evening on top of the snow that is already on the ground. Nathan was supposed to fly out of Philly today at 3 to go to a youth pastor's conference in cincinatti, oh...needless to say his flight was cancelled. the funny thing is that we were talking yesterday and i told him i was praying for snow so he couldn't leave!!! he wasn't too happy with me today when he got the news about his flight. he was able to reschedule one for tomorrow morning...EARLY! that's what i get for praying against what he was. =) I'll take him to the airport, then come home for a little before i go to work (i have to work at 7). my mom will be staying over tonight to watch the girls tomorrow.




We have had a relaxing day, that's for sure. Reagan wants to play in the snow but we are both too lazy to take her out! she's happy to eat hershey kisses instead. She picked out a dress to wear today and told us she wanted to be a flower girl. Cute! She actually is going to be one in june, for nate's counsin Anne's wedding.

Abbi is taking her second nap today, that's unusual for her...told you it was a lazy day, even abbi is feeling it!

I hope that those of you who were snowed in today too had an enjoyable, relaxing day!

Abigail Love's First Birthday

It's hard to believe that Abbi is one already! she is at such a fun stage right now, we're sad to see her grow up! Our "baby" isn't so babyish anymore! she loves to talk, only she knows what she's saying most of the time. we do understand "dada" "mama" and she is now saying our tortoise's name, "charla" - it's really cute! She turned one on February 6, last thursday. she LOVED her cake. She was the epitomy of a one year old eating cake. reagan was prissy about eating her first cake, kind of stuck her finger in it, that was it. not abbi! she dove in, squishing it in her fingers, even bringing her head down to the high chair tray!

The pictures above are from her actual birthday, but we had a mini celebration the Saturday night before with our friends Tim & Jess and their 3 little girls. We went to Chuck E Cheese for a little (it was PACKED!), then back to our house for cake and the traditional "girls" picture.

Not so fun news....nate and the girls are sick! my mom too actually! Abbi has thrown up once a day 4 days in a row, reagan did yesterday, and nate has felt like it all day today. poor babies! I feel fine at this point. We got hit with some ice today, my sick mama got stranded here for a few more hours. Have a great day tomorrow!

about time!

So i never thought i'd actually do this, one of my best friends has faithfully blogged for years. i have always admired her for it, but was never inspired enough to do it myself....until now i guess. maybe i feel as if i have reached a nightly ritual that allows me the 10 minutes it takes to share a little of my life with others. i have nothing really profound to say tonight, other than that i hope to brighten your day and give you a glimpse into my daily life in the days to come as i actually have something to "blog" about. thanks for checking this out, i hope to connect with a many of you through this , if only for a few minutes here and there. be blessed, goodnight!

Abigail and Reagan a few weeks ago in their gap "red" shirts...too bad abbi looks like a boy!! =)
