This is the LIfe..

I took this picture the other day from my phone. I love it! They have so much fun at the pool and it's so great cause there is nobody there but US! They were done swimmin' and needed a little sun break to warm back up~believe me~it doesn't take long here!

GONE!!!

Well, It's finally gone! Now that we are moved and the girls are somewhat settled I decided to do it! Get rid of the bottle! I had this same problem with Cheyenne, she was hooked on the bottle until she was like 2 1/2. I thought Shelby would be harder because she is so hard headed! I just started giving her milk in a new sippy cup and TA~DA! She is totally fine without it! Yeah me!


Now the next task~Getting rid of the "sass". This I know will not be easy!!! Wish me luck (and some serious patience)

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN.......

YOUR ALMOST 2 YEAR OLD TRIES TO GO DOWN STAIRS ALL BY HERSELF FOR THE 1ST TIME!!! Yes, our new house has stairs. We love it, it gives us so much more room and space to spread out. Unfortunately Shelby thought she was really good at walking down the stairs. The horrible part was that I watched it happen and couldn't do anything about it! She fell from Oh, about the 5th stair out of 13 stairs. OUCH!
She was okay though~no ER trip for us on our first night here! She now holds on to the rail for dear life! I actually don't worry as much now that she ate it bad~I think she remembers it every time she gets close to the stairs!

Our New Home!

So we are finally here and happy! The girls and I like to snuggle on the couch and watch a few cartoons! They are adjusting well and fighting like any sister pair does. This is our front room~almost done~note the few boxes that have to go upstairs but too lazy and hot to get them up there.

This is out back yard/patio. We love it, I miss having grass but there is plenty of room for the girls to run around in and ride their bikes.
It's hot here (it's supposed to be 105 today!!) But the winter is coming with 75 degree weather all day and chilly nights! I can't wait! We miss you all and hope to see you soon either here or there!

STILL HERE!

Just wanted to let you all know that we are still here and alive. Moving is no fun and I wish I could just blog all day~soon! We are here for just a few more days, then it's off to our awesome new home in Palm Desert! We are excited and scared and everything in between. WE know this is the right thing and we are supposed to be in Palm Desert. It feels so good knowing that the lord has his hand is the planning of all this. It's allowing Shane to see the work of the lord in our life. I will update you all more and of course with pictures when we get there and are somewhat settled! We will miss you all and are excited to be closer to some of you! Wish us luck!
