It's official.......

I'm obsessed!

I am putting this picture up here to remind me that I am a 30 year old, married mom with two children. Not a high school student in love with a vampire!

I am absolutely obsessed with the Twilight books....and Robert Pattinson. In the span of 2 weeks, I have neglected my family, not cleaned, worked out longer than I ever have, and read ALL 4 of the Twilight Saga books. I couldn't put them down. I know I'm a little behind the trend, and I have NO idea why I didn't read them earlier.

I have watched the Twilight movie twice and dragged my sweet hubby to a 10:00 movie to see New Moon. And on June 30, 2010 instead of celebrating my daughter's 4th birthday, I will be hanging out with a bunch of 16 year olds at the midnight showing of Eclipse! :):):)

And my new crush is Robert Pattinson...whew...he's good lookin'!

Annie

We left Emory here with the neighbor who was practicing babysitting.....our little guinea pig! She is in the 8th grade and her mom came over to help too! Since we had already left, Bryan and my dad showed her what to do with Emory. Bryan said she liked Hampton just has much (if not more!!) than Emory.
Christian LOVED The Fox theater. The second we walked in, she said "I love this place!"

Queen Gran and Princess Christian

They wouldn't let you take pictures inside the theater, so we had to step out in lobby....

Christian did great and only got a little fidgety towards the end. She fell asleep soon after getting in the car...it's hard having to be quiet for so long!!!!

This weekend my mom, Christian, and I headed to Atlanta to watch ANNIE the play while my dad and Bryan went to the UK/AU basketball game. It was such a fun time and we loved the play. Annie was my all time favorite movie when I was little. I mean....I LOVED it! So we jumped at the chance to let CC see the play. About 50% of the people there were children.....some dressed up like Annie- wig and all!! We all had a great time.

Another first

Emory's first bubble bath.....:):):)

(for those who might worry{mom} ......I promise we were being super careful with her while she is sliding in the bath- she and CC LOVED it!!!!)

Gigi

Christian's prayer last night began with:

"Please bless my Gigi in the hospital and the church....she got Jesus in the church"

She must think about her a lot....I do too.

No mommies allowed

Emory gets so excited when she pulls herself up....it' the cutest thing!
getting ready for the big date.

just got back from Monster Truck show


10 minutes later!!!

Emory as Strawberry Shortcake! She didn't really like it too much, so I'm not sure if this is a smile or about to have a meltdown.

Friday was the big night- the count down is over......it's "Monster Trucks with Daddy" night! CC has been counting down the days all week- not really knowing what she was going to, but just excited to be going somewhere with just her daddy...no mommy and no baby sister. To make it even better, Sophia and her daddy were going too!

The Meacham's came over beforehand for pizza (had to tell the girls that they could not change into princess dresses before they leave). While the girls went on their date, Angela, Elise, Emory, and I had a wild night of sewing! As soon as they walked in the door, the clothes were off and princesses dresses on. These two girls are great friends....two peas in a pod....although Sophia might need to give Christian some of her dancing lessons!!!:):)

Then Saturday was a "Mommy Only" day!!! Denise, Angela, and I headed to Ross Bridge to spend the day at the spa...It was the best day ever. For 5 1/2 hours we relaxed and didn't have to worry about anything....ahhhhhh.....so nice.

After coming back from Monster Trucks, it turned into a dance club at our house...check it out!!

7:30 AM

Conversation with Christian:

CC: Daddy, you are my friend

Daddy: I AM! Thank you! You are my best friend.

CC: I AM!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I swear I saw a tear in Bryan's eye.

(15 minutes earlier........ CC was going back and forth with Bryan b/c he found a bite mark on little thing we have and CC was denying that she did it. She was actually blaming it on her friend, Ava. Sorry Ava you weren't here to defend yourself!!! Well, we decided to let it go- pick your battles, right???!!! a few minutes later.....

CC: Mommy, I need to go to time out

Me: Okay, why?

CC: Because I lied, I did bite it. I sorry

Glad she came clean, I guess....little stinker!

(This morning in bed)

CC: Mommy, why do we have a chin?

Me: Uhhhh....I don't know!!! (she got me on that one!!!)

CC: Well, why are our ears right here.

Me: Uhhhh...I don't know!!!!! (she got me again!)

One night, after bath, Bryan was heading to the store. Christian decided she wanted to go with him. So she took it upon herself to change out of her pajamas into something more suitable for Lowe's! An Auburn shirt and a shirt as pants! Then when they got to the store she had to take her jacket off to show everyone her Auburn shirt....And NO....we did NOT let her go to the store in the shirt/pants. This outfit reminds me of a time that I went to kindergarten in yellow pants, purple knee high hose which I would roll down into a little circle around my ankles, and pink jellies (Ellen....NO comments about wearing ties!!!!:):):)

Still Christmas

Emory is now standing up in her crib....such a big girl.
What- is this not my present?

AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (this was the reaction I was expecting on Christmas morning, but instead I got puke!)

Daddy got an i-pie touch as CC calls it

her favorite gift....a jewelry box

This girl is getting spoiled.....we even did stockings.

This bow is really for CC, but I thought Emory looked mighty cute in it....

We all three got twisty turbies.....if anyone lived with me in college probably remembers my twisty turbies.....I personally think they are the best invention and wear one every day(okay....not every day since a shower is sometimes not in the cards for the day!!!!- my pre-baby self would NEVER go a day without showering!!!)

We had lunch with one of my best friends in the world, Ellen. I don't get to see her nearly as much as I would like. love ya El!~

Papaw and CC made some sort of cinnamon cream cheese pastry.....really good.

Bryan watching the Auburn game....poor Emory!!!

The newlyweds, CC, and Andrew celebrating Christmas on New Year's day since my parents we in Disney World and we were in Nashville

The fam.

Well......it was Christmas for 2 weeks for my family! My parents were in Disney World for Christmas while we were in Nashville, so we celebrated a little later together. It was fun to be home and the girls had the best time with their Gran and Papaw.
