Trick or Treat

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween! Hadley was a "Princess Ballerina" (as just a regular ballerina would not do) and Leighton was Jessie from Toy Story. You just can't see the fake braid attached to her hat. One of these days the poor girl will have more hair :)

The summer in pictures

I am still alive; just hard to sit still long enough to blog. Hubby took a new job in July; he is on the road all the time. When he is home I travel. Girls are fabulous, growing and changing too fast. Hadley turns 4 in a month - YIKES! Leighton turned 2 in July and has really developed a neat personality. They are both very funny, very stubborn girls.

Happy Easter, Happy Spring

The next time I post, it will be summertime. The months are flying by as usual. The craziness never ends, the stress increases, the work piles up. But we're here, we're healthy and we're taking it all in one day at a time.

I got another year older...oh fun! Been traveling for work alot; just hired another employee in Denver and work is just crazy busy. The girls are in swimming lessons; Hadley picked up right where she left off last year. Leighton isn't too happy about it yet; only because she is very stubborn and wants to do things on her own timetable. She isn't scared of the water. We went down to the Dogwood Festival last weekend and will finally make it to the Zoo next weekend (I think I was in high school the last time I went to the Atlanta zoo). Leighton went to her first movie today - we saw Rio. It was very cute.

May is nuts with school stuff, work stuff, two nieces graduating and of course a much anticipated trip to Vegas. I can't wait.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter weekend!

Rebooting

Happy New Year! Oh wait, it's February...January was full of snow, sick kids, sick parents, and one sick computer. I am still trying to adjust all of my settings now that we have our laptop back. The girls seem like they are finally getting well, and after both Marsh & I broke down and visited the doctor this week I think we're getting back to normal too. Preschool germs are just awful!

Speaking of, Leighton started pre-school one morning per week; she is doing pretty well ie I haven't been called to pick her up early! Woo hoo! She cries less and less each week so we are making progress. Leighton is very much a momma's girl and is a bit clingly, whereas Hadley cannot wait to go go go and barely gives her poor mom a kiss goodbye. Hmmm,I'll let you guess which child has my personality and which one is moody like her father.

Plans for 2011 include a trip to VEGAS in May (can't wait and it's Julie's responsibility to keep me awake past 10pm). Then we are going on our very first, full WEEK family vacation in July. The deposit has been paid, there is no turning back. We're even taking the grandmothers again (and lots of wine). St. George Island is our destination.

I am kicking around the Rock n Roll Savannah Marathon in November, especially if Julie and her running buddies travel east for it! I want to run another full before Boston 2012. Maybe. Some days I feel like I am getting burned out again but I think that's just the cold weather and treadmill talking.

So I need to figure out the private blog thing; I'll go that direction as well. Stay tuned!
