Precious

This is all I've felt like doing lately, and it happens to also be my favorite thing to do! I can't get over how precious my daughter is in these moments. Thank you Lord for this amazing girl!

Unfortunately, I have had to get up and take care of other stuff like brunches, three church things this weekend, two get-togethers with friends, and so on. All fun things, of course, but they just took a little more out of me than they normally would. Pray I feel 100% soon!

This is the sad state our bedroom gets in when I am sick and unable to do anything around the house. I have a kidney infection and it is not fun! I've had fever off and on, so I put a ton of clothes on and then take them off when the fever lets up-hence the horrible mess. Pray I feel better tomorrow so I can clean house!

Boxing

So this is what I've been doing on Wednesday nights- Boxing class at Monterone! I was thinking it would be like, kickboxing or just a workout including boxing or something. But this is real boxing, like I'm training for the ring. I have a lot more respect for the sport of boxing now! Watch out guys, I might be the next Million Dollar Baby!

Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

This is my nemesis this week. They just sit there, taunting me, telling me I'm not strong enough to resist, and they are right. We had these at brunch for the apartments this past weekend and these were left over. They weren't supposed to make it into the house- I don't know what happened.

Anyway, I'm apparently an every other day poster. Hey, it's better than once a month! I'll work at it and get there, I promise.

Happy Birthday Jada!

I know, I know. I already missed a day! So here is a pic from yesterday. It was my wonderful sister Jada's B-Day and a bunch of ladies from church took her to breakfast. Addalie loves Jada and wanted her the whole time! It's so sweet!

New Blogging Method

Ok, so I'm taking this idea from my good friend April who I'm pretty sure got it from another friend. Since I'm so bad about updating my blog due to the long amount of time it takes to put up pics, I'm going to do a very short update daily. This short update will include one picture from that day and a little note about it. Totally stress free. I really think I will enjoy this more and be more consistent. Don't count on stuff while I'm out of town or anything though!

So here are the first pics. These are actually from the last two days, but I just thought they were so cute! Addalie loves her baby and wants to take it everywhere these days! It's adorable! She also loves getting into my jewelry. It's amazing that she never had to be taught how to put on a necklace. The girl has a natural knack for accessorizing!

Ok, for those of you who haven't completely given up on our blog, we finally have an update! But since I'm so far behind, this will pretty much just be a Christmas picture update.

Addalie got these great hats from Gran-D and Pop for Christmas. Doesn't she look adorable?

Cousin Bonnie and Tia Leah

Matching cousins!

So we really try to give personal, creative gifts for Christmas. This Christmas, we got Dad these sodas called Stony. We drank them in Africa and Dad loved them. I loves the look on his face when he opened them!

Christmas Morning

Daniel played Santa at the Monterone Christmas party we threw. I was kinda Mrs. Claus, but Daniel really played it up and did a great job!

We hope you all had a Merry Christmas! Sorry this is so long after the fact!
