Picture of Anna

My brother took this picture of Anna. I decided to add it to the blog because I thought she just looks so cute! She turned 16 months old that day!

Sweet Eliza

Happy face!


Surprised face!
Doesn't she have the sweetest little face!



My wild woman!

I was fixing dinner tonight and she was playing in the pantry. I turn around for two seconds and she is all the way in reaching for something. She looks like she is sleeping on the floor in their.
I ask her what she is doing and she starts to come out. Notice her mouth is open in awe of what she found.

She found a magnet that had fallen off the fridge. How exciting!







Anna loves to swing!






I took about a hundred pictures of her swinging. Here are just a few. She was having so much fun at the park. We stopped at a rest area on the way back to VA and she thought we had stopped at a park. She kept walking out into the grass saying swing..swing.

Marmee and Papa

We stopped by Columbia to see my grandparents on the way home. They hadn't seen Anna for a long time and they hadn't met Eliza yet. Marmee and Papa are so wonderful and we love them so much. We wish we lived closer so we could visit them more often.

Charleston Vacation

Visiting Gigi at work

Visiting the South Carolina aquarium
Eliza is so sweet!
Swinging at the park
Anna sliding at the aquarium

John, the girls and I traveled down to Charleston to see my parents for a few days. We had such a great time!!! The girls love their Gigi and Poppi! Traveling with two small children is definitely a crazy experience. I remember the good old days where John and I could hop into a car and just go. It would take us about 6 hours from VA to get there. Now it takes about 9 hours with feedings, diaper explosion's, diaper leaks, and just getting out of the car to let Anna walk around. We also look like crazy people with the car filled to the max! We could hardly see out of the back seat, but we made it there and back all in one piece!

Bummed and please don't be mad!

My new camera is broken that I got for Christmas! I haven't posted any new pictures and that is the reason why! For some reason the flash just stopped working. You might be thinking...I hope she purchased a warranty. Well, no, no I didn't so I am hoping that this will not cost me an arm and a leg to fix. This is why I am bummed and this is my explanation of why I haven't posted anything so please do not be mad. I also know that pictures are what are most interesting not my writing so I will probably not post another thing until I can post pictures of interesting things i.e. my growing adorable kiddo's :)

Oldies but goodies - Part two

I think this is the Christmas banquet from December of 2005. Two babies later...Meghan Brown became Meghan Ellis... and Leslie graduated and is now an RD and has her own set of RA's (tear so proud). We are still friends...


Leslie and Meghan came to visit Eliza and me in the hospital. They are wonderful friends and we try to do lunch almost every week! This is our lunch crew minus miss Anna Grace.

Anna coming home from the hospital
They are sporting the same clemson hat given to them by their favorite Aunt Alden! I think they are going to look alike as they grow older. We will just have to wait and see.

Just a thought

Yesterday, February 29th, Eliza turned 2 months. Thank goodness for leap year! She would have had to turn two months and three months in the month of March...weird.
