Spring is here....

After a long, cold, dreary winter...Spring is finally here. Not quite sure why I haven't updated the blog in so long. I guess time just got away from me. Lots to catch up on so here goes...
Our house in Collierville finally sold in Feb. The church said they would help us with the payments for six months and it took exactly six months to sell. Funny how God works everything out in His time table.
Joy is now 9 months old. She is scooting around rather then crawling. She has learned to say a few words - ball, duck, bye bye, eye (as she points to a baby dolls eye), mama, and dada. She loves to eat. Just tonight she tried chicken nuggets and loved them. She also had pizza for the first time this weekend and kept screaming in her high chair till I gave her some more. She also had some avocados today and really seemed to like them as well. One of her favorite times of the day is taking a bath with Lilly.

Joy is also working on pulling up on everything she can. She was playing in her bed and loved pulling up and falling down over and over. Just look at this smile!!!

We have spent as much time as we could playing outside on the warm, sunny days we have had lately. Joy loves going outside. If the back door is open she is usually scooting over to the door and crying to go out and play. She loves to swing and explore.

Here are the girls wearing their green for St. Patrick's Day.



Lilly was so excited to get Princess and the Frog last week. We just love that movie. It was the first movie she saw in the theater when it came out back in December. She was also so surprised when she woke up this past Thursday to hear that we were having visitors from Collierville. Two dear friends came to visit and we just had the best time catching up and hanging out. As soon as Kara got to our house, they went to play and it was as if they had never been away from each other. They screamed, hugged, laughed and just had a ball for two whole days. Here are the two princesses...


The search has started for our new house here in Franklin. Pray that God will lead us to the spot where He wants us to live and call home for the next few years...hopefully for many years, boy am I tired of moving. This summer we will celebrate 9 years of being married and after we move out of the rent house it will be our 7th place to live during that time. Oh and for all you Rudy fans out there he is still as crazy as ever!


I am back on my blogging streak, so don't worry it will not be another three months before I post again.
