My baby is growing up.....

So I told Eva she could start carrying a backpack to school when she started pre k (which is in two weeks). I don't really know that she will need it but other kids already carry one to school. So she has begged and begged to get one!! So Gap today had all backpacks 30% of so we headed to the mall to get one.  She hasn't taken it off since then! It just about swallows her whole but her excitement is priceless......

Nothing like the smell of a new baby......

Such an emotional day!!! I love this baby girl as much as my own....I loved being there for every minute of this day.  I have never met two more deserving people.  After a long wait for them wanting a baby they can finally say their angel has arrived.  And she is exactly that an "Angel" with curly light hair;-)  Congrats you guys aunt LuLu and uncle Jim are so happy for yall!!!

The Beach cont......

So here's part 2!  Well there are many more but Im done.... we took 600 pics on this trip but I think I have posted the best.  This vacation will always be cherished cause very special memories were made.  This will be the only beach trip that I will be able to say I had a 4 year old and a 1 year old.  We missed Donna and John on this trip but due to her being due a few weeks before the trip it was best she stayed home to be near the Dr. 

I'm glad my girls got to experience the beach and I'm glad they LOVED it.  I'm so happy my Mom and Dad got to go and make more memories at the beach.  I'm sure Eva will always remember just the little things like the early morning walks on the beach with Nanny and Poppy. Enjoy......


There was rock salt eaten.... and kisses given....

The Beach baby!! Galveston TX

We had the "BEST time of our lives" as Eva said lol. This is just a small sample of the many pictures to come from this vacation.  It was our first family vacation.  And I will have to say it was so different vacationing with two kids.  We went to bed early and woke up so early. Unlike our previous vacations without kids it was the other way around.  Watching my girls play in the sand and water just brought back so many memories of when I was a kid.  Being out doors is "the land of many miracles" as my mom would say and it truly is.  Everything was so peaceful outside and the kids just ran and played (well gracie crawled but whatever) and there was not a care in the world......
 Part 1 of our first family vacation!!!!!! Enjoy!!
