I really enjoyed Girl Scouts a lot more when we were in Michigan. Communication has not been going well and it's just been such a stress. Not sure I will continue being a leader next year. It seems there are a lot of things I enjoyed more in Michigan. People are not always nicer in the south. There are days here and there where I like it okay here, but overall I just miss home. It really sucks that we had to move. Yeah, it's beautiful here, it's nice not having the snow, but that's about it. Summer will be here and then we'll be stuck inside because it's 100 degrees everyday. I'd love to visit home this summer, but it's sure going to be depressing. I won't want to leave at all.

March 1st

Wow. I can't believe it's already March. Winter didn't really drag by this year since it wasn't miserably cold and snowy I guess. West Michigan winters are pretty intense. It was nice to get at little taste of snow last week. Apparently this is the most snow they've had in like 7-8 years. Of course it was gone by the evening, but it was really coming down in the morning! Just the day before it was in the 60's and Sean was hiking in the greenbelt with Rachel (Alexis was sick).





So, right after I said Liam wasn't saying the girl's names yet, he started saying them (kinda). Rachel is "Chachel" and Alexis is "Gecki". He also likes to say "Ewwww" to just about everything he thinks is gross! It's so funny. He thinks if he says "peas" (please) he will get whatever he wants, which it's hard not to because he's so darn cute when he says it! He just keeps saying it with this look like "but I'm saying please", ha!

Alexis is starting math tutoring today after school with one of the other 2nd grade teachers. She will go twice a week @ $50 an hour...yikes. But it's better to get her on track now than later.

That's all for now!

Almost Two

It's hard to believe my baby is 22 months old. He is such a sweet boy, but is definitely hitting the "terrible two's". He seems to be on a mission most of the day to get into whatever he isn't supposed to. Last week we even started time outs, and now when he does something naughty and we say the words "time out", he gives us a look out of the corner of his eye and quickly goes to the time out spot! Sits there for about 3 seconds and then jumps up and runs away to have more fun. He also is at a stage where he loves to give kisses, hugs, and cuddle...soooo sweet! He is talking a ton, repeating lots of words we say. His first few words (a few months ago) that he really liked saying (and still does) were: shoes, football, out, go. (Do you notice a theme here?) He hasn't said Rachel or Alexis yet but repeats me when I call to them..."Girls!". When it's close to time for them to be home from school and I say "Rachel and Alexis will be home soon" he runs to the door and says "Sissy!". He really loves to dance. He still takes a nap everyday, usually around 11am. He is still a very smiley baby. People often comment on how happy he is. He is all boy. Loves to make growling, roaring noises with dad. Climbs on everything. Runs full force into everyone in attack mode. He definitely keeps us on our toes, this one! But he sure is cute, isn't he?!

A Spa Party

It's hard to believe my baby girl is now eleven years old. Where did the time go? Sigh. This year she wanted a spa sleepover party. I had fun making all the decorations. I think they turned out pretty cute! It was sad not having the regular "gang" at her party this year. There are some sweet girls here though. Meghan and Hibiscus came and helped with manicures and pedicures. I was very grateful...couldn't have pulled it off without them! The girls also made bath salts and decorated pillow cases with fabric paint. Of course Monster Liam had to run in the other room after we had been sure to keep him away while they were drying and in a split second he had stomped on half of them. Luckily not too much damage...but still! That child is something else. Go HERE to see the pictures. Make sure and click Next to see all the pictures. I love the ones with the facials and cucumbers.

Liam

I realized I hadn't put a single picture of Liam on here yet! His shirt says "Lock Up Your Daughters".
