An Aunt again

Audra JoAnn
Addisyn Marie


So I am an Aunt again. x2!!!! Addisyn Marie and Audra JoAnn were born last night. They are a whopping 4lb 9oz and 4lb 1oz. I am so impressed with their weights. They are doing great!!! And after a bit of an exciting night all are doing well. I am so blessed to be able to do what I do. I get to be apart of some many happy moments. And when it is my family it makes it even sweeter. I love that my kids are just as excited as the parents. I cried more telling them than anything. Bailie is been enjoying being big cousin/mother to Avery. The bond those two share is so special. She fed her, bathed her, and slept with her the night before last. I go in at 3 in the morning and Bailie is awake rubbing Avery's back with a big smile on her face. Melts my heart. Anyway, congrats to Jack and Jami! Love you guys!

Randomness

So I am sitting here catching up on a few of my favorite t.v. shows. I want to know what are your favorites? I drive my husband crazy with DVR especially when I have two show recording at once. The more he complains, the more I laugh about it. Yes I know watching the tube is a total waste of time. And if I sat here and listed all the shows I enjoy, I may tell myself I am a loser. Yet, I love primetime tv and I love 1-2 shows every night. So now, tell me our favorites. I want to know! I can not choose one so please list them all. Tonight I am watching 24 and Castle. I have every season of 24. I love it. And Castle is a fun show that makes me laugh.

11 years (give or take)


So Lance and I will have been married for 11 years in 1 hour. I am not going to sit here and convince you that it has been perfect, but I will say this, it has been fun, and sad, and exciting. I knew from the first moment I saw Lance I would marry him. He is my soul mate. Is it perfect? No Is it easy? No. But it is my life and I chose to live it to the fullest. I love him and appreciate him. He has given me the 3 most beautiful children and all that I have and am able to do. Happy Anniversary Lance!!! May there be many more!!!!

Special Girls!!!

So I have to say Happy Birthday to 3 very special women in my life. Starting with...
MY MOM!!! I am so lucky to have the mom I do. I am sure that most people I know feel this way, but I am. My mom is the most talented person I know. She does it all!!! Sews, cooks, she is creative, organized, and the best thing, she loves me and is always in my court. I hope I am half of what she is. I hope my kids think of me as the kind of mom she is to me! She turned 55 last week and she is beautiful!!! Happy Birthday MOM!!!


Lady number 2 is Aunt Connie. Another amazing woman who has taught me so much in my life. She is loyal and real. One thing I love about Connie is that she will tell you like it is. I always know where I stand with her and I appreciate that so much. Another thing I love about Connie is that she is the cleanest person I know. Everything at her house is always put together and I appreciate that. The ironic thing is that when I had 2 babies she was the one to tell me that they will never remember if your dishes or laundry was done. I took that to heart!!! :) Thank you Connie for being a great example to me. Happy Birthday!!!


Last, but certainly not least!!! Happy Birthday to my dear friend and sister-in-law Jami. The big 30. Oh no!!! Be ready now you start noticing the wrinkles :) So Jami is just what I needed in a sister-in-law. I was so happy when Jack and her got engaged 5 years ago. He picked the perfect girl. She is a sister, a wonderful aunt, and a true friend!!! Happy Birthday Jami!


Ladies, no hating the photos. They are perfect!!!

What was I thinking?

So I guess deciding to go to the gym again was not the best idea. I am scared to go snowboarding this year because I am so out of shape and I think that means I will hurt myself BADLY!!!! That means getting into shape will prevent the big accident! Today I am sore because I let Jenn talk me into Body Pump. My poor hamstrings are shakin like crazy. There is a reason for it I just keep telling myself. Besides, those hot ladies at the gym give me hope for myself.

So the other night we went to Josh and Jenn's to play some games and guitar hero. I had to make the kids look like rock stars. It was so much fun. And Bailie can play guitar hero. She doubled my score in no time. Thanks you guys for a great time.

Happy New Year

So had a great night at work last night. Thanks girls for ringing in the New Year with me. I have my computer figured out well enough to be able to upload pictures. So I am going to add some from this fall and the Las Vegas trip Lance and I just took. We had a great time with Josh and Jenn. Did so many things. Went to Brooks and Dunn concert. That was great. Then to the NFR which was a lot of fun. Took in the show Mystere. And we walked and walked and walked. We were there for quite a while, but it really was a great vacation.

Anyway so excited to see what 2010 will bring to our family. Starting basketball here soon. During this time Jack and Jami will be welcoming twin girls. Marcie and Reagan will be adding another girl to their family the first of March. Trying to see if I can head to TX for that delivery. We will see. Fun times!

I hope everyone will have a great 2010!!!
