A Little Overdue....

Ok, so it's only been a few months or so since my last post.... honestly I just haven't felt like blogging. I figured that everyone was on facebook so what was the point? Well, a few college friends of mine nicely told me otherwise!!! Sorry Rach and Mimi:) Then I just couldn't come up with what to blog about or where to start back since I have waited so long. So girls, I hope this is blog worthy for you... and I promise it won't be so long 'til next time!
I've been extremely clingy and sentimental with my children lately. Maybe it could be the winter blues... maybe just a woman.... or most likely the fact that Frank and I have been exploring our kindergarten options for Allie. Seriously? Kindergarten? For my baby??? I can't imagine dropping her off and saying 'bye baby.... see you this afternoon' ouch! That hurts thinking about it! When I was a new mom everyone said that time flies. I heard it, let it go through one ear and out the other, thinking 'yeah right'.... I'm stuck somewhere in the middle of fixing a bottle and a dirty diaper. They were right, I was wrong, as usual.:) Time really does fly.... I mean how could Allie go from this

to this so fast? She has grown up way to quickly.

So I'm gonna cherish these next 8 months with my baby... my first born... the precious gift that God used to teach me patience, true love, motherhood, and a list of things way too long to blog about. I'm gonna savor being able to skip 'school' and stay in our pjs until noon, to not have homework or tardy's, and most of all just being a 'little girl' still.

I know that I am most guilty of being the type of mom who just tries to 'make it through the day'. Just get until 5 o'clock when daddy gets home right? I hope to change this and to appreciate the fact that my kisses still make their bo bo's better. That on friday night we are dancing in our pj's, soon enough they'll tell me they are going 'out' and I'll be up all night wondering where they are instead of rocking them back to sleep. I'm gonna cherish that mommy and daddy are still heros and cooking with mommy is the highlight of their day.

I want to always have them this happy.... with silly faces, being children with no worries.

I love you Allie and Mary Elliott :)
