Even MORE.... I know you're excited!







Here are some from when our electric came back on and we returned home. My camera's battery died and I couldn't find the charger (found it yesterday though, yay!) so I had to use my S3 IS. Which is nice because I could zoom in a lot farther since I don't have a long zoom for my dslr YET (!!), but you can notice the quality is much different from one camera to the other.

I couldn't get the memory card to load the photos onto my computer so I plugged it into my husband's laptop and they worked there. So these are all SOOC because I don't have Photoshop on his computer. I had to resize and watermark in Paint *ha, ha*

And please remember that all of these (and most of the others) were taken from inside. I'm battling a cold and wasn't able to venture out like I wanted, but did take a few from my husband's papaw's porch.

Oh yeah, and before I stop rambling on and on.. the majority of the following images are going to be HUGE because I couldn't resize right with Paint! Man, I love Photoshop *sigh*



















A few more from the storm.

Lights Out {Snow & Ice Storm}

Brr... our electric went off yesterday morning thanks to all of the snow and ice that covered us. So we had to bundle up our two tiny ones and make it down our driveway and next door to my husband's papaw's house so we could use his wood burner.

They started out saying it'd be turned back on by noon tomorrow but then started saying that it'd be February 4th before it'd happen. Thank God that they worked and got it on today! I am so happy to be home!

Our county has been declared a state of emergency because over 65% are/were without power. So please just keep EVERYONE that is being affected by this, no matter where they are, in your thoughts and prayers.

I have a million photos to share but we havent been home very long and these are the only two I've edited so far.

Another '3' Milestone

Photobucket


Dear Little Miss Blondie,

I can't believe you're three months old today! I never knew anything was missing before. We were a family of three and everything was perfect. Then we found out we had another baby on the way! You entered our lives and now everything is truly complete. We're a family of four and things are now more perfect! Is that possible? Sure it is. We love you, all of the pink things that come along with you being a girl and every single beautiful smile that make you you!

Love, Mommy

I was hit by a motorcycle.

Please forgive me for being absent from posting. I was in a little motorcycle accident the other day. Look below for a photo if you think you can stomach it:

This is what happens when you are bent over playing with your infant daughter and your 3 year old decides to make your back into his dirt track. Daddy to the rescue once again! Thankfully, it was only fatal to a few of the hairs on my head *lol*

Ingredients.

Here's a photo from the 19th.
The very first cake I've ever made by myself.

I made my second one on the 21st for their party,
but my husband and my Dad helped me to decorate it :)
