Guess what I did.....


Oh don't you hate it when a certain something gives you a piece of advice and you do not listen. Only for it to come back and bite you in the bottom. So...... on Sunday I went to go get a Ziploc bag out of the pantry and there was a can in the way. I stood there and thought you should move that but I did not and that darn can fell on my toe and broke it. At least my feet were cute for the doctor, right?

THE MERMAID!!!!

I was looking threw my photos from Disney and I saw this photo and I giggled. The first time we went to Disney our Hotel was right next to this gift shop with this giant mermaid and Abigail loved it. So much she talked about it for weeks afterward. Well one day Nanna (Vickie) called and said "where is this mermaid that Abigail keeps telling me about? "Abigail had sent her on this wild goose chase and had told her " Nanna just go down Blanding Blvd." Nanna being the great Nanna that she is went down Blanding and then was just as disappointed when I had to tell her over the phone that Abi's mermaid was in Orlando. I thought it was cute. So I took a picture just for you Nanna.

who loves mornings?

ItalicI am a morning person I love the mornings. I love the idea of a new day and waking up to my family that I love. This morning we had powdered donuts. My sister bought some for Abi. Thanks Jen! So this morning we decided to make breakfast worth smiling about. Harris and Abigail were big fans of the sweet goodness. Harris in fact pulled himself up and stole one of Abigail's off of the coffee table then with it in his mouth crawled to the other side of the living room and ate his sweet sweet goodness. 5 things I love about breakfast:

1.) I wake up to Harris talking in his crib over the baby monitor.
2.) Abigail always sings me our good morning song.

3.) My kids always smile when they see me


4.) I get to spend cuddle time with the hubby before my day even begins.




5.) I get another day to dance sing and play with the 3 people I love the most.

Bippity Boppity "Boo"

At the end of the day Abigail was so exhausted and cuddled right on up with Papa and fell asleep on the train ride back to where our cars were all parked. I know this photo is out of order but I felt that it shows just how much fun we had. Thanks for being such a great Papa!!!
So before we went to Disney my Aunt Suzi got word of something extra special that they do now in Cinderella's castle called the " Bippity Boppity Boo Boutique". They have all different packages and she decided she was going to treat Abigail and her granddaughter Payton to the top of the line experience. It was a moment in Abigail's life I will never forget. I thought about every moment I have spent and every moment to come in my relationship with my daughter and many times I was a little teary at how blessed I felt to have Abigail's sweet spirit and tender personality in my life. My family was there and all took turns coming in to watch the girls on this special day.

Here is Uncle Kenny who is my dads brother and Aunt Suzi's hubby. He was so cute when he got to see the girls all dressed up and even he himself said it was worth every penny he spent and every second in took. Thank You both for doing this. She will never forget it!!!



The proud grandma ( who just found out she was a grandma) said she had years to make up for and I am not sure who had more fun the grown women or the girls. Thanks Aunt Suzi!!!


Here is the 3 of us. Harris fell asleep about 10 minuets before they finished so he was dreaming in his stroller.




When you first walk into the boutique there is a whole wall of shoes, dresses, tiaras, wands and everything else a princess needs. It was so fun watching the 2 of them going back and forth between the princess that they wanted to be. Abigail ended up choosing Cinderella and Payton choose Sleeping Beauty.





Once the girls picked there dresses we waited for a dressing room then our 'fairy godmothers in training" came back and got the girls to reveal there outfit. Then the girls got dressed and were ready for their hair, makeup, and nails.


Here is Abigail before.



During the hair part of it they gave Abigail a clear shield to cover her face when her " godmother in training" Sprayed the hairspray. Boo thought that is was hilarious.
Boo loves makeup and I thought her little lips all puckered up was darling. I love my beautiful girl!!!


This is Boo all done up but before she had seen herself and she was sooooo excited and thrilled to see herself.
Then for the big reveal all she could do was look/stare at herself. Boo was so surprised she did not even smile she just stared. It was so cute I looked over at Aaron and he was even a little teary eyed at how cute and pretty our little girl had gotten. She went from being our first little baby to this pretty, loving, and grown up little girl.
If that was not funny enough she finished just a little bit earlier than Payton did and when she watched Payton get all finished up she was once again speechless. Look at the expression on her face.
Auntie Jen Jen was just as excited as I was. She could not wait to see our little princess all glammed up and ready to go.
Then after the makeover was complete they did their own little photo shoot and walked around Disney the rest of the day as the Pretty Pretty princess's they were. Harris was so tired by the end of the night. He passed out and was so cute and handsome in his stroller. I think the day was a success.

...... Almost the best part!


Yep we did it again. Isn't this photo crazy. Look at all those people. We went to Disney again as one big family and it was great. I loved watching Abigail and Harris enjoy the day and their little faces light up when they had something or some character catch their eye. We had a great time. We even somehow managed to get Papa and Uncle Joe to go again HAPPILY. They were troopers. Thanks guys you made the trip complete. I love you all and thanks for being in mine and my kids life.


Here's Kynleigh with Belle I decided she is going to look like belle. Have I mentioned that I love being a Aunt?

Abigail did not get to see Snow white last time so Aaron, Papa, Mam-Maw, Jen-Jen, Shawn, and I all made it our mission to get her to Snow White. It was worth it. Look how in Love even Harris was. He loves the Dark headed ladies.





I love this pic of Boo. Her checks were so red. Oh my Heavens it was so HOT!!! But at the end of the day it was worth it. We were given a great day with most of the people that we love most in this world. What else could you ask for?



Harris was yet again the hit with the ladies. What a cutie?







We did not get to see Mickey and Minnie last time either so this time they were at the top of my list. Harris loved Minnie so much he was ready to eat her up and take her home.








Abigail could not decided which one to hug first.




Here is most of the ladies at the beginning of the day. We look lovely!!! Next post will be the "bippity boppity boo boutique". Oh it will be worth the wait if you love princesses and you love Boo you are going to be thrilled.

Starting things out right!!!!

So recently we as a family have without saying it realized we really really do not just love each other because we have to but love each other and we have so much fun together. So Dad and my uncle Kenny got together and decided that they needed to rent a house for a week and make a great trip out of it. My Aunt just recently found out she has a 4 year granddaughter and flew her and the mom down for the trip so we were packed. 11 adults and 4 kids. GOOD TIMES were had! The men in the family last time sent Disney a letter to tell them that maybe they should advertise that certain events will be held there and let the families know before they get there ( we went on Gay day it was crazy inappropriate for kids) and Disney gave us 10 free tickets to make up for it. Thanks! So we set and in my family a trip is not a trip if you do not start it with Cracker Barrel. So here is half of the group eating some yummy food.
Once there Aunt Suzi and Uncle Kenny showered the gals with gifts and sun glasses were included. The cutie with Abigail is Payton and she is my Aunt Suzi's granddaughter that she just recently found out she had. Some surprises are worth the wait, I guess.






Aunt Suzi is from Orlando and took us to her old Stomping grounds. This is OLD town. It was so much fun. They had rides, old cars of all years, shops, and food. The night ended with a car parade which was fun and interesting all at the same time. If you go to Orlando you should go to old town.


Papa and Harris were just a talking it was to die for. What a good Papa! Thanks Again daddy!



Here he is with a full tummy of Ice cream!

My uncle is Just like my dad but quiet and he was so cute on the train we did not even have to bug him he hopped right on in all by himself.







Kynliegh eating ice cream. Mom was feeding hers to Harris and Kynleigh and they were dying for there turn.

Kynleigh and Harris oh they love love love each other. They have there own little way of communicating to each and they just love one another.










The Night ended with aunt Suzi with kids in tow it was adorable!











Oops!










Jen and I were bored and decided to get wild!











And now we are cute again! All in all old town was great and I loved spending some fun time with my kids and Jen. I had a blast! Thanks Daddy!!!!

Up, Up and away!

Last night Harris crawled. It was so cute! I was in the kitchen washing dishes and Abi and Harris were on the floor in the living room. I looked down because I thought that I heard Harris close and sure enough there he was. All the way in the kitchen. So this morning I was thrilled to show Aaron his new trick. As a little extra incentive I placed some pudding a little bit away to make him go, and he sure did. I can not believe he is crawling and so big. I love being a mommy of 2 little cuties! Here he just spotted the pudding and is dead set on getting to it.
Here he is going. Check out that look. So cute and determined!

Getting closer.....
Ahhhh.... He got it! What a cutie! I love you hare bear! Everyday with you has made my life a little bit more fun, complete, and enjoyable. I can not wait to see what else you'll conquer!
