The Marriage, Move, and Children

It has been quite a few months around here...

First off, Maddy and I got married on February 26th, 2010 at Roseland Plantation in Tyler,Texas and it was an absolutely gorgeous, small and intimate wedding. We had close family and friends attend, had wonderful flowers and a delicious cake. To make it all seem even better, It was RAINING that day!!! I hope that what they say is true..."Rain on a wedding day is a sign of good luck!" :)

My mother, Vicki, walked me down the isle and gave me away to the man I love sooo dearly!!! Sierra was my flower girl and she was soo precious (i'll post pics of her later). My cousin Kymberley was my maid of honor and my cousin Sara was my other bridesmaid. Maddy's best man was Preetesh from Austin and he is an awesome friend to both of us! We had a very peaceful wedding that had wonderful champagne afterwards as well. The honeymoon night was spent at the Bed and Breakfast and it was an amazing experience to be able to stay the night in such an East Texas Treasure. Next time I will drag him to Stag Leap in Nachodoches and see how he likes that.

Now, we will move on to The Move into the new apartment. Oh boy, was that fun. Trying to move everything we owned from a 3rd floor apartment into a UHAUL *More importantly it was Maddy and 2 friends that were moving since my ankle looked like this ------------------------------>

I rolled my ankle the day before we started to move all of the heavy stuff and I got to lounge around in the UHAUL for a while since I couldn't go upstairs. Anyways, we finally got everything from the apartment and moved it over to the new apartment and I had the wonderfully joyous task of trying to unpack everything with 2 small and very screamy children underneath me. It took me quite a while to get everything unpacked and in its place and honestly the only room we don't have finished is our bedroom because frankly NOONE ever goes in there lol. But it is a continuous work in progress and will eventually get done...I hope.

And now for the cou-de-gras...What i know everyone is wondering about....THE GIRLS!!!!!

The girls are both doing very very well. The both just went to the doctor for their shots and they love to play together now that Morgan is more "active" lol. Maddy is still such a good daddy with the girls, sometimes it seems as if they enjoy him more than me (probably because he is at work most of the time, so they cherish the time they have with him). I can not believe that my girls are getting so big and they will soon be returning to day care and gaining in their education a bit more. Now for the individual reports.

Hmmm...Let's see..what can I write about his adorable little girl other than the fact that she is soooo cute!!! Ah ha, but don't let that whimsical smile fool you ladies and gentlemen, behind all of that, there is a master of deception at play. Tempter tantrums and bouts of anger (hmm wonder where she gets it from lol) can erupt at any given moment with no warning.

But no seriously, she is very smart and loves going to school. She even knows a few words in sign language!!! She is having so much fun playing with her little sister and she can't wait to get back to school. Sierra now weighs a good 30 lbs and is 33? inches tall!!! I can not believe that she is almost 2!!!! Freakin 2!!!! I remember when she was in the hospital from being preemie and she wouldn't gain weight! Now look at her...Mama's little sack of potatoes!!!!

Now there is little miss Morgan Lynn!!! I think this picture just about sums up how she is doing. lol. She is all SMILES...all day long!!! She is talking (babbling) and laughing at Sierra! She weighs 15 lbs and I recently changed her bottle to the Dr. Brown bottles and put her on a different formula for spit up, since that's was all she knew how to do for a while. Now she is gaining weight and eating like a little monster. We are going to get her back in day care soon so she can learn to crawl around the floor with all the other little babies! She can roll around all day long but she has no interest in being on her stomach. I guess there is just so much more to see from laying on your back lol. She is currently in love with Sierra's old bouncer toy. Its a blue horse on bungee cords in its own frame and she just goes to town in it. I will have to get a video later and show it to you guys!

I am sooo excited that life seems to be going so well for me lately! I hope that everyone out there will pray for me and my family as in Feb 2011, we will be trying to conceive a boy, hopefully :)

Please continue to follow and I promise to update more often now, since I have so much free time on my hands.
