Bring on the Milestones!

Time really flies! That's all I can say. I just got home from my littlest sister's wedding. That's right. . . I remember her in diapers. Doesn't she look lovely! It was a great weekend!

And. . . .just last night, Paige lost her first tooth! I can't believe how big she is! She whined and carried on all day about that little tooth. Finally, when it was almost time for bed, Shane made her wiggle it until it came out. Check out that proud toothy grin!

My baby sister just got married and my baby just lost her first tooth. What's next? I think it will be Morgan's first real smile. She's right on the verge of breaking into a full grin.

GOLD!

. . . . and what a match it was!

Happy 9th Anniversary!

Happy 9th anniversary Shane! It's been 9 great years and I can't wait to see what is in store for us and our little family. I love you!

Thank-you millions Grandma Barbs!

We miss you so Grandma Barbs! Thanks for playing fairies and snap and go fish. Thanks for Paradise Bakery cookies and sharing icees with us. Thanks for cleaning, cooking, chatting, watching the olympics with us and putting up with our grumpy, sleepless family! Thanks for holding our sweet baby and spending time with us. Thanks for walking Ty to school every morning and sharing that time with him. Thanks for being there on Paigey's 1st day of preschool. We love you!

1st day of preschool

She was so excited yesterday, can you tell! Afternoon pre-k EVERYDAY this year. Um yeah, I'm excited too! She'll take any opportunity to strike a pose, especially when she's decked out in her favorite color . . PINK! You work it girl!

Surgery

I had my gallbladder removed yesterday and everything went great. Is it weird that I kinda. . no . . . .REALLY wanted to see that little varmint of an organ that caused me so much pain! No such luck. I suppose the Vicodin would have erased that memory anyway. I'm excited to resume a somewhat normal diet and let go of the fear that an attack could happen anytime or anywhere. Gallbladder attacks = extreme yuckiness!
My saint of a mother-in-law is here right now vacuuming my floors, scrubbing my bathrooms, burping my sweet baby, walking Tyler to the bus, cooking dinners, and listening to some annoying Christmas album of Alvin and the Chipmunks over and over with Paige. I can't begin to say how thankful I am for my friends and family!
