Back From Florida

Hello All - I'm back from Florida.

I walked into the sitter's last night to get Lil and she gave me the BIGGEST hug and said "mommy, I missed you so much...you were taking too long"
Then about 15 seconds later "So where are my presents!" Ha Ha

I'll post some pictures of the trip soon. Got some really good one's! And yes...I'm a giant lobster! But I'm not a complete white person anymore - I'm more of a red tint now (still even, from Friday when we went to the beach)

While I was gone....
Doug took lilly to dance class for the first time ever. She was so worried about it the day I left that she asked if I could just take her and doug there and drop them off because he doesn't know how to get there. Needless to say - they arrived a half hour early. Doug said he wanted to make sure they were on time so he didn't 'get in trouble'

I found out that Paula and Mike are having a baby boy! Yeah! Lilly still thinks they're naming the baby potato.

Doug and many friends took the kids to the Monster Truck show Saturday night - where Lilly fell asleep. There is no mistaking that she is his child! I think he can sleep standing up!

I think that's about it. Doug said something yesterday that he wanted to go out for dinner because he didn't want sandwiches again. I asked if that's all they ate while I was gone. He said "of course not, we went to McDonalds - IHOP - and i'm sure there's more.

Daddy now feels [this] big

Doug and Lil were on their way to meet me, my dad, and marla last week at the hospital (visiting my grandma, she's home now feeling better - tired, that sort of thing) Anyway, Doug got pulled over. He had kind of a hassle with the lady cop.

1st she says - um sir, these plates are not registered to this car
he says - um yes they are
she says - no, they say hyundai and this is a jag
he says - yeah because I drive a jag, huff
so she looks at the car - believes him that he knows what kind of car we have - then goes back to her car to figure out a way to hassle him some more.
Comes back and says something about the plates that were on the jag before ya know, are now not registered to us at all - they are 5th 3rd banks plates - well that just happens to be our lease company that we just purchased the car from...yadda yadda

They ended up getting it all straightened out but of course he got a ticket. All the while, Lilly was in the back seat being quite, which is pretty much a miracle in this type of situation until... she looks up at Doug and says "Daddy, are we bad people?"

Finally Dance Class Pics

Since mommies are not allowed in the room, and we can only look through a window in the door, I had to take pictures at home. Here are some of lil doing her Hula dance and some of her ballet. Too cute!


Hula Hula...



I have no idea what the name of the positions are....so blah blah...ballet ballet...

A Day at the Park~


Last Sunday - 1/29 - when it was remotely warm out, Lil and I were bored so we went up to the park by our house. She completely impressed me by being able to swing "all by herself." And she even got off her swing to push another little girl. The whole time she was being little mommy by helping all the little kids get to the slides, up the ladders, up the rock wall. It was pretty cute. Here's some pics...

When I get big...

Lil: Mom, when I get big can I live in a house with my husband and daughter
Me: Sure
Lil: I'm going to live by MeeMaw
Me: oh ok
Lil: But I'll still come visit you
Me: well that would be fun
Lil: Can you come pick me up?
