Wow, time sure has flown by... Khloe is 3 months on tues July 27th, and Brey n Gabs are 4.5 years old! Its amazing just how big the girls have become since Khloe has been born. Alot of adjustments but everyone is doing great. Khloe just got her 12 weeks shots...3 of them but she did AWESOME! Cried for 30 seconds, daddy held her and she stopped. The nurses said Khloe had daddy wrapped! Lol! She does! He is loving every minute of it...yes even the wee hour morning feed times! He's such a blessing and loves the girls and spending time with them.
Our days are full and are nights are the same. I am working nights, and he is on days (for now! not forever!) The girls love hanging out with daddy:) Gabs loves being tickled by Keith and having him chase her! Sweet sound of giggles filling the air! Brey loves to tackle daddy and she laughs so big, its sweet:) Their mouths are opened wide, laughing, eyes twinkling...everytime he plays with them. Its definitely a fuller plate but we are enjoying the journey. God has been a #1factor in it all... we know that without Him life would be so much harder. With God we know that ALL things are possible. Phil 4:13 we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.
Khloe has been smiling, and talking so much more... coooing and she even laughed the other day! Michelle and Brian witnessed it because when we were over their house last week for dinner Brian was talking and moving his hands and she laughed! It was precious! July 17th!
We are gearing up for pre-K with Gabs and I have the honor to teach her! Homeschooling will be an adventure but sooooooooo worth it! We bought some supplies and workbooks the other day at TARGET all for a$1.00! We have some materials to get started. I am looking forward to teaching and watching Gabs grow and learn all sorts of things! Very excited! She is too! She is excited that mommy will be her teacher! She is so cute, when she wants to do things or go places she asks, mommy can we get it or go tp panera THIS DAY! Its so cute! Makes me smile...
We've enjoyed the summer, going to the pool, playdates with friends-ordinarily I couldn't do before because I was on days. We are gettin ready for vacation soon, still working out the details, but we soooooooo need it and are excited about it!
To my husband: its been a month and a half....I am so proud of us, and so thankful for God and his Grace and love towards us that has drawn us even closer together and I enjoy our pillow talks where we reflect and remember how far God has brought us and how far we've come. I am thankful for u and all that u do for our family. God is good and He loves us and has a continued plan for us together, individually, and as parents.... looking foward to continue this journey getting stronger and stronger every day in Christ and looking FORWARD to a prosperous, blessed year as a family! God is amazing and He loves us and will use us and to complete the good work He has started in us and we WILL SEE IT TO COMPLETION! In Jesus name!

We were married June 11, 2010 at 4:30 pm at the Cedars of Lebanon, Assembly Hall. Originally we were suppose to get married at my future inlaws home, but the weather forcast predicted rain over that weekend, and we needed a back up plan. Turned out to be such a pretty day, but we are so glad we moved it because it was suppose to be OUTSIDE! Very hot! So I am glad we moved the location. Pictures were outside, sweated some but then we were able to cool off as we walked down the isle!
Our wedding party consisted of 2 brides maids: Michelle and Christine Jr Bridesmaid: Abigail (9 yrs old) and our sweet flower girls were our daughters: Gabriella and Brey. Groomsmen: Israel and Ryan. We had awesome singers too! Ashley, Caley, Rebecca! They sand Beautiful by Kari Jobe and also The More I seek You by Kari Jobe too. Our friend Aaron played sax, and played guitar as well. We had so much fun together and everything went so smooth and so great! I was so excited waiting to see Keith and walking to meet him...he came and met me half way as I walked down the isle. It was a sweet time together:) We are very blessed... and have overcome alot this past year and we are looking forward to enjoying the journey together.

Ok, so I am a little behind on my posts! Smile... here are some pics from our girls day:) I wanted to take the girls on a shopping day out and really have a great time focusing on them before the baby is born.
We woke up early, Fri morning and Gabs and I went to pick up Brey, Keith's little girl, and then we headed over to get Michelle and Kaylee so they could join in on the fun with us:) We went to the pfunky griddle in Nashville. Its a cool pancake place, u can actually sit down and make yummy pancakes in front of u! U cook it! Wow they are so yummy! Ok, did I say yummy again! Lol! Yes!
Then we went and took the girls to get their nails painted:) We had a gift card that we were able to use as well:) Thank u to Israel and Ashley for that! Brey got her nails painted pink, Kaylee got hers done with purple and purple sparkles, and Gabs had pink and pink sparkles. They had alot of fun and they did soooooooooo great sitting in the chairs while they were getting pampered:) The workers there were sweet and very patient with them:) They dressed up in their princess costumes and we did their hair too:) Fun!
Then we went shopping at JC Penny for the girls and picked out 2 dresses and a pair of shoes for them. Such great deals too! Shoe shopping, lol well that took longer than I thought, try 4 year olds trying on shoes and prancing around, it was cute but wow the energy! I was tuckered! LOL Glad my friend Michelle was there:) Potty breaks too inbetween trying things on... and the bathroom just had to be on the opposite side of the store! lol! The girls had fun, and loved trying on their dresses and new shoes.
Then we went to Chick Fila to grab a bite to eat for lunch...all in all we had a full day but was loaded with fun! We also went on a detour when Michelle missed the exit to Providence, so we ended up at the Children's Place in Lebanon. We looked there and then the girls played on the play ground in the sand (don't do that dressed up lol!)
Then after all the fun we went back to Michelle's house and met up wtih the guys and made homemade pizzas! oh so yummy!

33 weeks today... princess T is moving, and moving and oh yeah MOVING! Smile, really so cool to feel her move alot. Especially when I am laying down, or working and she hears mama's voice ALL DAY as I interpret for deaf clients at work on Video Relay. I enjoy what I do, but wow its a little uncomfy sitting in these chairs for an extended time! Praise God, pressing through!
Everything is coming together, and we are almost ready for her arrival! Gabriella was 37.5 weeks when I had her, so come on princess T, 37 weeks is just great with me! Time sure has passed by so quickly! We had our first shower about 3 weeks ago, and will be adding some pics soon! Ok, TODAY! Smile... we were very very blessed!

Gabs is so sweet at night sometimes I will rock her in the baby's room, she says mommy rock me in baby bella's room... so we go in there and she says I wanna rock baby bella! Its so sweet, she puts her head on my belly and her hand and then she sings to her and tells her she loves her so much. Very precious:) Brey loves to pull my shirt up and kiss my belly, and give a zerbert on my belly button-of course its flat now and almost wanting to pop out:)
