Something Cute

I ordered this for myself today. I think it's SO cute!! I love how it has three frames so I can put the kids pictures inside plus the color is perfect.

Big Brothers

Lily has two big brothers who love to hold and cuddle her. I think she prefers to cuddle up to Will as she always falls asleep when she is with him. With Hayden...hmm, I think the look says it all.

A Happy Little Girl

In Love

How can someone be alive 6 weeks and 3 days, weigh only a little over 9 lbs with a toothless gummy grin and get an entire family to be totally in love with them? This little girl has something special.

Will and Hayden just adore Lily. Whenever Will holds her she will just look up and smile at him and wave her little arms around and kick. Hayden reports to us every sounds she makes and will giggle hysterically if she happens to bump his face with her tiny hand. Daddy is now guilty of laying her in our bed and snuggling with her too. It's happened twice where it's been all night and I didn't know it till I woke up and found them cuddled up together.

Me...well, let's just say I don't get a lot done during the day as I love to hold her. When I talk to her she gets so excited and gives these adorable little facial expressions.

It doesn't get better than this. We all love you little Lily girl.

Six Weeks Old and Smiling

Lily turned six weeks old yesterday. I can't believe how fast time is flying. We're getting more active everyday and the best thing is that we're starting to smile. That toothless gummy grin just melts my heart.

Change

Big changes are now on the horizon. Now that the opportunity is in front of me, I'm nervous. I think what is making this hard is no matter what path I choose it's going to make someone upset. I'm not one that likes confrontation but I can't live and be happy doing things just to make others happy.

It's time to start a new chapter in my life.

What's shakin' Friday

It's another beautiful spring day today. I just love this time of year. Daily you can see the changes in the trees and the flowers are blooming again. Wonderful!! They're saying late this afternoon we're to get some rain but at the moment it's blue skies and sunny.

We were awaken this morning to the entire house shaking. We had an earthquake. It registered 5.2. Growing up in this area I've felt a few little shakes that lasted only seconds but this lasted about 45 seconds. I was awake when it started as I had just rolled over and was adjusting my covers and pillow. This is something you don't experience very often. It scared me.

The virus that has plagued our household this past week got Will yesterday. The only person who didn't get sick has been Lily. I hope it is gone for good. You sure feel rough for about two days when you get it.

Today my girl is 5 weeks old and getting bigger each day. We went shopping together this week and out to lunch. At Wal-Mart I had several elderly people stop me and ask what aisle did I find her on as they wanted to get one too. She does real well out running around. As long as we're fed and dry, she's a happy girl.

I went on one interview this week and then have two more scheduled for next week. Even if none work out, it boosted my self-esteem knowing that there is life outside my current employer. I'll see what happens. Hopefully not long after I go back I will be submitting my resignation. I'm ready to move on to something else.
