Happy Birthday Baby Girl!

February 18th.
4 days 
after we arrived
in MN
Baby Girl turned 1!
My poor kids
get the worst 1st birthday.
At least she
got a birthday cake.
GMan, not so much.
A high end store
(I guess like Trader Joes
or Whole Foods, etc)
gives a
FREE
cake for a 1st birthday.
It definitely
made my life easier
knowing I wouldn't
have to make it.
Isn't it pretty?
She sure thinks so

Ironically enough,
we just got baby
her own cupcake.
They were the same 
cake and frosting
so hers was just as delicious
as ours.

It seems to be a hit.

Would to like some? :)

Presents.
As always
the wrapping and boxes
were the best part.
But what girl wouldn't like
the news shoes, clothes and toys
that she was treated to.

Happy Birthday Little Lady!
We sure are glad that you came to our family.

Hello There!

Just when I finally
get caught up
in my blogging world.
We up and move
And I fall behind again.
Aghhh!
Two months later
I look at the pics
and get slightly overwhelmed.
Here we go,
again,
to catch you up
on our belated lives.

Before we left

Before we left
our lives were chaotic.
We sold the house
in 6 weeks.
Yeah!!!!!!!
Then my mom
came to visit.
Double Yeah!!!!!!
She had bought a ticket
as soon as The Man
left town.
Not realizing
that the house would sell
so fast.
I didn't care.
It was so fun
to have her
for 12 days
to shop,
play,
and provide me
a break
when needed.

She was great
with the kids.



And she helped
clean my house
so we could move.
Then,
she left the day
our packers arrived.
She was a life saver,
a sanity saver,
and we were
so glad to see her.
Love you mom
and thanks for coming
to take care of us.

This is G
signing his Valentine's
for preschool.
V Day was
our last day in OK
and it was so hard for him
to leave his class behind.
He loves it there
and will miss
Miss Mary Kay
and Miss Lori
terribly.
Too bad,
I haven't found
a school as incredible
here.
Yet.
