Recent Pictures

Here are a few pictures I took on my cell. Many of them are while the girls are playing outside. I have been cleaning the windows, so they have been able to go outside and play a lot lately.

I'm Not Ready Yet!!!

Jadie has been asking to go "potty" before bath. The last couple of evenings, Johnathan has put her on there and she is completely content to sit there for 10 minutes (if we would let her.) This morning, when I gave the girls a bath...Jadyn asked to go potty. So I put her on there and of course...she TeeTeed! Way to go girl! Only problem is...Mama's not ready to potty train her!!!

"E You!"

Jadie walked up to Ashlyn this morning, gave her her biggest hug and said "E You!" That of course is Jadyn's "I Love You!" She has been doing this to John and me for a week or so...but this was Ashlyn's first! She lit up like the proud big sister she is!

I haven't found the time to sit down and write lately about all our family adventures lately. Since the "Big Flood", Jadyn went and stayed with my parents for a week, and then it was Ashlyn's turn. (Ashlyn is very much into fairness, and she either needs to have the same amount as Jadie...or MORE!) I also visited my parents during the weekend and took pictures of my brother's company bonfire. It was a neat experience and I made some money off of it....but it was COLD!!!

We have had all 4 of us back under the same roof since Thursday evening. The girls went to school as usual on Friday and I ran a few errands. Johnathan went to his parent's house to build their fence was destroyed during Ike. He came home last night for dinner and left first thing this morning to try to finish up.

It has been fun having them individually. They are both chatter boxes and Jadyn is really putting words together these days. One time I am going to have to sit down and write all the words in her vocabulary like I did with Ashlyn when she was around this age.

I have taken just a few pictures on my cell phone and hope to upload them soon. I still haven't got around to editing or uploading the Christmas pictures...but they will be coming soon....(remember...you will have to scroll back down to the appropriate dates to see those!)

Our Man Made Flood

Sunday was a great day! I finally had my laundry room completed...decorated and everything put away. The old house is 100% empty and all the things inside the new house finally had a home and were all organized and put away. We all went to dinner that night and returned home shortly after 7. I decided to sit down and watch a movie on the couch with the girls. It was perfect...it's been so long since I have had the time to enjoy their snuggles without thinking I should be working on something else. Johnathan was in theguest bedroom trying to connect the printer to thecomputer. The movie the girls and I were watching was the land before time III. Anyhow, there is a Trex that was chasing some baby dinosaurs. Ashlyn was terrified. Finally she got up and ran towards the guest room to find Johnathan. This is when I heard...swish...swish...with every step ashlyn took! I looked down and there was water running towards our master bedroom. Our washing machine was overfilling! We wound up having to rip up the carpet in three rooms and cut out the saturated pad. Two of the rooms...the water ran under the walls to get to. (The guest bedroom and Ashlyns room). We borrowed fans and dehumidifiers from Courtni and my parents.). My momcame and picked Jadie up Monday morning and took her back to her house. All those tack strips are exposed and we didn't want her to step on them. Thank you Mom. We have managed to dry out the carpet and the carpet guys are coming to lay a new pad and relay the carpet this morning. The only xhallengenow is I ha who washing machine. AND we used all but 3 towels to clean up the mess. I'm so thankful we have a big shop vac...otherwise there would have no way to get all that water out of the house, even with all tge towels i used. I also used all the extra blankets in the house to help barracade the water from going into any other rooms. So I have two large mounds of soaked blankets and towels outside. I even used all of theextra baby blankets, hand towels, and wash rags in the house!!! Laundromat...here we come!

Another Plumbing Mistake...John to the Rescue Again

Last night I used my AWESOME air tub. It's absolutely wonderful. I'm Soooo Spoiled! Anyhow as I had the air bubbles on they suddenly stopped and it sounded like an airplane was in the bathroom with me. Johnathan took a look at it and said the plumber failed to put a clamp on two hoses. (Another missing clamp!). I'm so glad I decided to take a bath and turn the bubbles on...because the tile guys are scheduled to come tomorrow to finish the tin surround. This would have been a huge problem if the tub surround was finished and then we realized there was a problem! Another save by Johnathan...he went the next morning and got the clamp and solved the problem!

Grandma and Grandpa W. Visit

Tommy and Patti came over around 5pm. While they were here we went to get Mexican food for dinner. Mexican food is one of Ashlyn's favorites. Today was kind of an Ashlyn Day. Johnathan had taken her with him to run errands. She loved it because, "Mama always make me ride in the cart." She was excited about going to Ace with her Daddy so that she could get some popcorn too. Johnathanwven took her to lunch...her choice. She picked Sam's!!!
We have decided that Jadie Ann doesn't get to gave any more chips for a while...she choked not once but twice on them at dinner when we went with Johnathan's parents. Literally, my heart was in my stomach. I was sweeping her throat while Patti was beating her on the back. No more chips until she is 18...!

Happy New Years!

On New Years Eve we invited two other families over for the evening. Each family brought their own steaks and drinks. Everyone left just before 1am. It was nice to relax and take an evening off from painting and unpacking. We are so thankful for such good friends. We are anxious to be settled in so we can spend many more evenings like that with them.
