Happy to see Pete!

Marlee Grace and Karsyn Blair were so happy to see Pete today but I'm thinking Pete was even more happy to see them.  He could hardly wait until I got them out of the car...he had his head stuck in the car the whole time I was trying to get the girls out of their car seats!  :)
Horse girl! :)


Karsyn Blair is 33 weeks old!

And standing up in her crib...she does not want to sit down to take a picture right now...she wants to pull up and stand up, so we just took her weekly picture of her doing this.  This girl is growing up too fast for this Mama! :(
Oh and my white chalk marker is out of white chalk :( so we had to use the pink one. 

Visiting Big Granny and Grandpa's graves

Marlee was so sweet talking to Big Granny and to Grandpa today when we went and visited their graves. Grandpa's tombstone just got put in and it looks so good!  The river scene on it is so pretty! She always wants some of the purple flowers that we have on Big Granny's grave and I always let her have some because Big Granny would definitely have shared her flowers with Marlee Grace and would want her to have some. :)

Tired babies

These two were some tired babies today and took an afternoon nap in GiGi and Papa's bed!

Precious Girls hanging out, having fun!


Meeting Gaines Oran Lawson

We were so excited today to meet Brannan's new baby boy, Gaines Oran!  I can't believe we are just meeting him for the first time!   We have been gone so much lately and their family has been getting adjusted to having a new baby so we were excited to meet him at Brannan's Sip and See shower today!   The shower was perfect...a frozen yogurt bar which Marlee really enjoyed because she got to load up on all her favorite toppings and I loved snuggling with Gaines and chatting with Brannan and other friends I had not seen in a while and introducing them to Karsyn Blair! 
GiGi helped deliver Gaines which was extra special for her and for Brannan since Brannan is like a sister to me!

Abigail's FROZEN birthday party

Marlee Grace and Karsyn Blair were so excited to attend Abigail's FROZEN birthday party today!  Their mommy, Jen, did a fabulous job hosting the party and had so many cute details there including a snow blowing machine, a snow cone truck where the kids got to make their own snowcone, a yummy candy table, etc...  Marlee Grace had so much fun swimming in the pool and playing with her friends and Karsyn Blair really enjoyed hanging out with Mrs. Amy at the party!  :)

Gracie's vet appointment

It was time for Gracie's yearly appointment at Dr. Saunders today and Margaret wanted to join us on this adventure and so she did!  The girls had so much fun looking at all the dogs in the vet office and Dr. Saunders was the BEST ever because he talked to the girls all about Gracie, let them look into her eyes with his little tool, and let them listen to Gracie's heartbeat which they thought was amazing!  Gracie weighed in at 6.2 pounds and is a healthy 11(77 in dog years) years old!  A fun and educational morning for sure!
Listening so well at everything Dr. Saunders was telling them!
