Today....

Is emotionally harder than yesterday
I realized loss is way more physical than I thought it would be
Peyton and Presley hugged before they went into their classrooms which made me smile
Piper spit up on me while I was talking to a group of moms at school
I feel stressed about where my kids will go to school for elementary school
We learned we are most likely going to get the house we wanted
I feel blessed that not only do I have a husband but truly a partner
I cried 3 times before 9 a.m.
I want to be strong for my sisters and my mom
I realized that last statement might be harder than I thought
I am trying not to spend any money
I am all caught up on upcoming events and activities and am going to sit on my couch for 30 min.
I am going to workout
I am probably going to cry a few more times
I am going to do something nice for someone because that usually makes me feel better
I am meeting a friend for a drink
The girls and I are going to get mani and pedi's
I am feeling the loss of my dad
I am frustrated that loss of my dad is out of my control
My girlfriend called just when I needed to talk to someone
I am missing my best friend who will be moving to Atlanta in a few weeks
I am overwelmed by different emotions
I am angry that my dad left me and I have to answer the tilted head "how are you doing?" question everywhere I go
I felt better about everything after I showered


Tomorrow..... is a new day

Open House

The girls had open house on Wednesday night at their preschool. We had so such a great time looking at their classrooms and seeing everything they have been working on. My kids are so amazing!!! I loved every minute. I got to meet their friends, have ice cream and even do a cake walk!

Their cousin Jackson also goes to school there so he showed us around and hung with the girls.
Mommy and the kiddos in Presley's classroom
Yay! and Grandma came to see all their hardwork too!

So Big!

Look how big Piper is getting! I can hardly believe it. She is 5 1/2 months old already and such a happy baby! She is so laid back, always smiling, and is just starting to sit up on her own. We love you Pipercub!

Blog Update!

This post is for my Aunt Vicki! She has a requested that I update my blog so I thought I would send her a special shout out! We are headed to Las Vegas to see Garth Brooks so this will be once again a short post.

The girls are doing really well. Both girls have started school and LOVING it. Peyton is already learning so much and we are so proud of her. She knows how to write all her letters and is now putting words together. Presley is doing extremely well in her class and her teachers have already pulled me aside to tell me how wonderful she is. They say she is a great listener (must be a school thing), helps pick up, and shares with others. Her teachers said they are so lucky to have her in their class. We feel the same way!! She has also started dance and is doing really well at that too. She has grown up so much in the last 2 months. We love her so much! And finally Piper....she started a music class and laughs and smiles the entire time! It is a nice way for her and mommy to spend some one on one time together. She has however started waking up again...ugh. We are hoping this is because she is teething!!!!

Other than that we are busy busy and living life to the fullest!


Presley and her cousin Jack on their first day of school!
Piper and Daddy
Presley looks a little scared there....but she wasn't. I think mom and dad were embarrassing her.
