Sorry its been so long. We have been the busiest family ever! With work, baths, dinner, group, and family time...it makes me tired just to have typed all of that. So I guess I will catch everyone up..posting a few new pictures. And I promise I'll try harder on the blogging thing!
So spring is finally here! Aniston turned 7 months yesterday. It is so hard to believe she's still mine. She has grown up so fast already. Addison is being such a good sister. She plays with Aniston and makes sure that I know when she is crying (but I think that's because she wants her to stop). It snowed here a few weeks ago. That was the first snow Addison had ever really seen. She played and played. She got really frustrated when her hands and feet got wet and frozen though. Anyway, back to now---This week is spring break. It's the first week really that I have been home MANY days with two children. Are you sensing my frustration? Every time I put Aniston down for a nap, Addison screams "Mommy"..and then I'm back into Aniston's room..sshhhing her. I'm not sure how many of my friends do it with more than one. The family is great. Other than a few colds and allergies...we're doing great! This past weekend we spent in Atlanta going to the World of Coke and the Georgia Aquarium. That was one of the best times I've had in a long time. The Aquarium was awesome! We went to the Titanic Exhibit and through all of the fish exhibits. Addison had the best time and she got to stay in a hotel (that had an indoor pool). We had to run to the nearest Target and buy a new "baby soup" otherwise known as a bathing suit. We had a great time. It was great spending quality time away from home together.
Work is great too! Although I needed the break. I am so proud of my students! They have come a long way. Some of them didn't know colors, shapes, letters, sounds...not to mention a word. Now, most of them are reading. They all hold a special place in my heart. I am so greatful for the experiences that I have everyday with them.
Church is awesome..wouldn't you know! Our new facility is under construction. It's going to be great. We are so thankful for Auburn Church. The people are wonderful, they are truly becoming a part of our family. Our small group is wonderful, we ae becoming more and more transparent over time. Our group has faced some hard times lately, job loss, family health, etc. We continue to keep them in our prayers. They mean so much to us. We will be parting from this group before summer, taking the summer off, and then birthing in the fall. I am already not looking forward to it! I hope under the circumstances we will continue to be close friends. If you are interested in visiting our church we are located now at Grand National Marriot. But are awesome new location is on Shug Jordan...and we are furvently praying that it will open on Easter Sunday. The best Sunday!!! Check it out....www.auburnchurchonline.org
Addison got a new bike yesterday. She wants to ride it all the time. She even fell in the driveway and she got right back on. I'm so proud of her. She and Aniston are everything I ever wanted in children. I love them with all my heart...sometimes it's so overwhelming.
Well we are all good..for now...I'm sure there is a princess meltdown coming soon. I promise I'll keep everything updated!!! Bye for now!
