Thanksgiving.....

Thanksgiving is this week. I can't wait to taste all the wonderful food and spend time with family. I am sad Kevin cannot be there though because he has to work. I have so much to be thankful for this year though. Kevin is getting hired at Leprinos as a full time worker on December 1st! We were able to move out of my parents house and have an apartment now! We have two beautiful little girls and one wonderful dog!  I have the best husband I could ever ask for! I am Loving my life!


We are already done with all of our Christmas Shopping! Well, I am done. I am not sure if Kevin is. I have everything all wrapped up already! Everything we got for the girls is wrapped and fits into one tote. It works this year but next year I am afraid it will be harder to hide things! I am so excited for Christmas morning this year! It will be the first Christmas we get to spend with the girls in our own place! We lived in Indiana for Gabby's first Christmas but spent it in NY with my Family. Then for Avalynn's first Christmas we were living in NY and went to Indiana to spend Christmas with Kevin's parents. So this year is the first we can wake up in our own place and spend Christmas with the 4 of us. Well 5, since Kito will be here too! I can't wait!

Potty training

Gabby has been doing really well with Potty training! She is almost fully there! Now Avalynn has decided she wants to use the potty too! She lets us know when she wants to sit on the potty and sometimes she does actually go! She wore underwear all day today. She gets so mad now if I try to put a diaper on her! She wants to be a big girl like Gabby. 


Speaking of big girls I told Gabby that only Men and Women like Daddy and Mommy can use the stove. She said to me "I woman too mommy" I said "No, honey you are a little girl, not a woman" She then said "I not little girl, I big girl! I go potty!" 

B-day Party

Took the girl's to my cousin Crystal's youngest daughter Nicole's 1st Birthday party today. They seemed to enjoy getting out for a little bit. They have both been very cranky lately. We haven't been getting out much so I think they are just bored. Kevin works evenings and we only have one car so unless he drops me off at my Mom's before work we are pretty much stuck here. I really don't want to take them out too much anyway because there is so much sickness going around right now. We go grocery shopping once a week and I always put hand sanitizer on their hands as soon as we get to the car. Shelly might bring Natalee over tomorrow, I hope so because Gabby loves having someone besides "The Baby" to play with , lol. 

What I want for Christmas

Wish I had 1,300.00!  It would be so cool to be able to take the girls for rides in this! It has a seat and seatbelts in it!

Sad News

We got some sad news on Friday that a friend of the family Jim Mears had passed away. My husband was really upset. His work allowed him to take a couple days off from work so he has gone out to Indiana for the funeral. I miss him a lot when he is away. It is really hard knowing he is that far from us. I'm happy he was able to go though and he will be home in a couple days. 

This photo was taken 3 1/2 years ago at my wedding. Jim is second one in on the right.
