First day of school

Today was our first day of school. The girls had a great time and really like their new teachers. Natalie has Mrs. Williams for 2nd grade and Courtney has Mrs. Fortner for Kindergarten.

Ready to swim

Well we have officially moved. The girls are having a great time in the pool. In fact today we went out and on our way home I turned to find Natalie like this in the car.

Happy birthday Anabel

Adding to our family

Are we ready for this? I don’t know but come April 13th we will have a new puppy in our home. We went to meet her tonight as she will be a birthday present for Natalie and Courtney. Natalie was pretty excited. Here are a couple of pictures and little video. Natalie even sat still and put the puppy to sleep. Courtney on the other hand will have to learn to put the puppy down and be a little gentle with her love. Enjoy.

Natalie’s Baptism

Natalie was baptized today. It was really amazing as a parent to watch your little girl be excited about showing all her friends and family that she believes Jesus is her Savior. Last year Natalie prayed and asked Jesus to come into her heart. Since then she has been learning and processing what it means to be a Christian, what it means to be baptized and to take communion. Her first communion will be this Easter Sunday.

New haircut for Courtney

Here are a couple of new pictures. The sun was out so we went for a walk. Courtney decided to wear her butterfly wings and tinkerbell shoes. I got the shoes at a consignment sale on Saturday and she has not taken them off since.

Today she got a haircut and she looks so big.

Another day of firsts for Anabel

Today Anabel took her first step. We had some friends over and they all cheered. She got excited and sat down. It was really cute. I hope to catch the next time on video.
She also fell asleep tonight by herself. Hooray!!! I laid her down and she stirred and cried briefly when I left the room but not long before she fell asleep. Now it’s my turn. Goodnight.

2-10-09 update – Another first – we went to the doctor and while this is almost Anabel’s third cold it was her first ear infection and antibiotic. We almost made it to one year before she needed medicine.
