Vacation Countdown!


Well it's been awhile since our last blog. Not a whole lot has happened since buying a new car. The Impala has been treating us well, taking us places and back safely. Life has been occupied with the usual- work, sleep, eat, and play. Leah has been keeping busy with her babies, movies, cooking along with "trying" to potty train. She understands the concept but has difficulty with control. She loves her big girl underwear and is pround to wear them around the house. We'll get there soon!

The big, exciting news for us it that Jarrod and I FINALLY get to go somewhere tropical and warm. It's going to be the honeymoon we've been waiting for.  A trip to Cozumel, Mexico is our plan for March. We've been counting down the days and it's only 44 days away! Leah is going to have a blast while we're away with Grandpa Tom and Grandma Vicki. I will have a hard time not seeing her everyday but will know she's in great hands. So take a look at our beautiful destination we look forward to, especially considering it's so dang cold here!

Our New Ride

Hello everyone! I know it's been awhile since I've blogged but now have good news to blog about. Daddy and mommy were sad to say goodbye to their car. It was a cool one!  I guess it ended up not working right or something so they had to find another one. I told them I wanted a purple one but of course, they didn't listen but they found a pretty gray color. I guess I can live with that. I rode in it a couple times and think it's fun. I keep reminding mommy that she broke our other car so I hope we have this one for awhile. So check out my pimping new ride! The best part is the remote start- that's so neat!

Christmas Scare

Well we had a very nice Christmas day, however the evening was quite an exception. That night, we were heading homebound with all of our presents & food with Leah sleeping soundly in her carseat. Jarrod and I were in midst of a conversation and noticed it was blowing quite a bit outside. I should have been paying more attention to the road since we were heading over a bridge. When I looked ahead, I noticed a snowdrift partway in my lane and was too late to divert it.  The car ended up spinning a couple times and we hit the barrier. Luckily, we're all okay and didn't collide with another car or go off the bridge. We both thought it could've been a lot worse. Leah actually slept through the whole thing.  Damages include the rear end, front passenger wheel, and our stainless steel crockpot.  The tow company said we were their 9th tow in 2 hours that night!  Now we're just waiting to hear back from the insurance company if the car is worth fixing. Hopefully we know by Monday because it's the only thing on my mind.  We all miss the Impala and anticipate its return. It was definitely a wake up call and makes us appreciate everything life has to offer. So that's a Christmas night we'll always remember.

Merry Christmas Everybody!

When I woke up this morning, mommy and daddy for some reason were really excited and brought me downstairs. They told me I could open presents. Why, it's not my birthday? But I was okay with that! They told me Santa brought me some for Christmas. I'm still trying to figure out this whole Christmas thing. What is it all about? 

Santa was so nice because he brought me lots of princess things like a table and chairs, Cinderella dress up, sweathshirt (it lights up!), and an ornament! WOW- I was in heaven. I had to put my dress, crown and high heels on right away. Mommy said I walked pretty good with my heels but the kitchen floorwas kind of tricky. I got lots of other neat things too like a vacuum, light bright, candy, and more fun clothes. Christmas is so cool! Daddy and mommy said I can open more presents tomorrow with grandpa and grandma- yeah! 

Hope you all have a great Christmas too and remember the real meaning! I think I know. Merry Christmas!

My 1st Haircut!


Today mommy and her friend Brandi or in my words, "Auntie Brandi" took me to JcPenney to get my haircut for the VERY first time! I didn't want to sit in the chair by myself because it was kind of scary so I sat on mommy's lap along with my baby Adeline then I calmed down a little bit. Auntie Brandi was so silly making funny faces in the chair next to me. Mommy wanted me to sit still so she gave me a yellow sucker! It was SO good. I didn't care that hair fell on it- it was still yummy! Mommy even took a picture of me and Auntie Brandi to remember this special day!
