Mothers Day, 2010

It's been a while... and I don't really know why I decided now was the time to pick this blogging thing back up, but this Mothers Day was so incredibly sweet... I felt the need to post.

My Steve is such a romantic guy. So, holidays like Mothers Day he really shines... hits it out of the ballpark, so to speak. I'm one lucky lady, to have snagged a such a great catch.

Most of the time, his romanticism is lost on me. I'm not looking to be wooed, but more for the tangible (dishes done, laundry folded, grass mowed...) but I'm learning to accept this "love language" of his.

So, this Mothers Day, I was adored by a clean house, gas in the car, a fixed toilet seat, and the most endearing card ever. The best part were the words he penned. They read,

"I can't wait to parent for the next 20 some years with you. You are skilled, smart,sensitive. For the first 5 years of our marriage, I loved you as my wife. These last 5 years I have adored you as my kids' mother."

As I write this, the thought creeps in, what's the big deal. This isn't too terribly special. But, for some reason, it was. To me.

I love my man, and the Lord who has given him to me. Thank you, Jesus.

To put your mind at ease... your fears at rest... I'm still blogging, just relocated.   tee hee hee

Abby Cuteness

We go to the zoo every Monday with some great folks from our church & their kids. Abby LOVES the animals, the carousel, and the train.  She really LOVES the water park. 

The Louisville Zoo is awesome (I need to be on the commercial.)

Abby has a sparring match daily with the nap monster. Sometimes she wins, which means no nap. Other times the nap monster prevails. This is evidence of a defeat. My sweet girl, she fights her naps tooth & nail. :)

Potty Training, Day 6

Ms. Abigail has been doing a fantastic job going on the big girl potty!!  We are taking it slow, working on home first, waking hours,  & she has been accident free for 2 days. There has been a lot less drama around going, which makes it SO much easier  - YEAH!!!

Tonight we're having dinner with friends - I think we're going to go with panties rather than diapers to see how she does.  ???  THIS IS SO EXCITING!!

Thank you, Jesus, for the grace & patience you've given me while potty training Abby. 

My Girls

I thought everybody may want to know about my girls & their doctor appointments. 

Joanna has an ultrasound appointment on Friday, June 27, to see if she does have a problem with her little hips.  :(   

Abby will be seen by a First Steps Nurse early next week - they're coming to the house - to check her gait.

Alright, I just have to say - I'm ready for my babies to be unquestionably fit & healthy.  Amen?

Odds & Ends

Look at this face!  How cute is this little girl!!

Bath time with Mommy! Joanna loves taking a bath!

So,  here's cuter!

Little Joanna knows how to rest, now - and the girl is so adorable doing it!

So, here's cutest!

Joanna's stats from the doctor visit yesterday:

24 in. &  13.5 lbs.

Doctor's Visit

Joanna had her 2 month well-child check up this morning. She had to endure 4 shots in her precious, chunky thighs. Of course, the nurse had me hold her - ugh - I HATE that part.

One thing I would ask for you to pray for is that the doctor referred us to the hospital to get an ultrasound of her hips. The doctor said it was probably nothing, but that her hips, especially the left one, did not feel just right & she wanted to rule out hip dysplasia.
