"Happy Birthday Big Sister!!"

Home Sweet Home

Well, the end of 2008 was certainly busy for us. Amongst other things (like managing an almost 3 yr old and having a baby), we bought our first house. We are absolutely in love with every bit of it and even though the decorating is a work in progress, I do have some pictures to show. Thanks to my most favorite Aunt Jackie, I had the help of a pro to decorate. There are still a TON of things I want to do but we have a good start. I will post more as more decorating gets accomplished.

This is the view outside of our back windows. (don't worry, the tractor is gone and there's grass now!)

Here's the front of our house (again while still under construction)

This is part of the living room leading into the playroom.

Well...the time has come...I've finally decided that I HAVE to find the time to start and maintain a blog. Everyone else is doing it so I should too, right? Actually, I have two beautiful children and lots of friends and family that want to keep up with how fast they are growing. So here is the solution! We'll start with just a picture or two of each of the princesses--Madison Jeane (will be 3 on Saturday) and Mackenzie Elizabeth (3 months today!)

Mackenzie is just so sweet, unfortunately for her, she is a clone of her sister so I haven't taken many pictures--I can just pull out Maddie's baby pix to show people what she looks like!!

She is SUCH a good big sister...still learning what "gentle" really means but other than that, she's wonderful!

Isn't she gorgeous?!?!?!?

Maddie loves books and loves stickers so the combo of both is heaven for her!
