Natalie is 7

I can't believe that Natalie is 7 yrs old!  Natalie will always have a special place in my heart.  Natalie loves to dance, oh how she loves to dance:0  She loves Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez and Hannah Montana.  She loves to help with Olivia and Owen and begs her mom constantly for a baby brother -ha.  Natalie is so sweet and I can't wait to see how God grows in her heart and how she blooms into a beautiful  young lady.  Natalie I love you so much and thank you for letting me be apart of you life.  I can't wait to see what the next year has in store for you ................

A Cinderella Story

Every little girl is a princess at heart and Olivia got a chance to experience what it was like to be royalty for a day.  Cinderella  made  a guest appearance at Blair's 3rd birthday.  The girls had so much fun getting tatoos,face painting,  a magic show and playing outside. What a great afternoon with my little princess.
of course Olivia wanted a "Purpelicious" butterfly
(bc that is her favorite color!)

October,gone in a blink of an eye

October flew by for us.  We had a lot of exciting things happen.  Our friends, the Olins, welcomed a new baby into their family, and lets just say Olivia loves baby mason.  Every time we pass a large brick building(church,business complex,etc..)  Olivia always says "hey mommy thats were baby Mason lives, he is so cute"  Fall festivals, Trick or Treating, Sarah joining Hopewell Baptist Church and getting baptized.

The World of OWEN

Boys are definitely way different than girls.  Owen is always on the move, climbing on everything, pulling on everything and he constantly has a bruise on his head, but I don't know what I would do with out him:)








The Clavicle and a Nurse

Olivia broke her "Clavicle" about 3 weeks ago.  She was a superstar at the ER, she was very familiar with taking xrays,checking her vital signs and going to the hospital, all thanks to an episode on Bubble Guppies, where Nonie broke his tail and they had to call the Clambulance :)  Everything checked out normal and we were advised to keep her arm in a sling, which lasted all of 3 days.  Olivia adjusted very well to only having one working arm.
...and of course being super cute helped her get almost anything she needed, I mean wanted!!!  Because this is such a common injury for children there really isn't much of a follow up needed, but just to be safe we went to see Dr. Trivette to make sure her range of motion was where it should be



Olivia is very fascinated with all things medical and all body parts, body functions, and body sounds (if you know what I mean), so she loves going to see Nana and Dr. Trivette.  Olivia definitely gets the royal treatment when she goes to the doctor.  I guess that's what happens when Nana is the nurse.  To finish out the day we met Daddy and Sarah for lunch before we had to pick up Owen from school.
