Most precious moment so far

The time invested in children is so precious. I had a moment with Lorelei yesterday that melted my heart. She and I were sitting in the bathroom, and had been in there for almost an hour because she has decided that she wants to get off and on the toilet by herself. Therefore, she was getting off and on and off and on and...so on. We were just talking and laughing and one of the times she got down she came and stood in front of my and leaned in to give me a kiss and then stood back and looked at me. She was deep in thought with the sweetest look on her face and then she said, "I yuv yu momma". It was such a sweet unprompted show of affection! I love her so much.

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!!

Flying by....

One of the pictures I am putting up today really describes exactly how I feel this holiday season is going! i feel like I can barely blink and it is a new day! It is the exact same way with Lorelei and this precious boy that is on the way! Wasn't it just yesterday that she was in my tummy kicking me constantly! Wasn't it just yesterday not 5 years ago that Danny and I got married! Unbelievable!!

She has moved on from her Elmo fascination and is now a Little Mermaid fanatic! When I say fanatic I am serious! I am trying to make sure we only watch it once a day. As much as I love the movie I don't care to watch it 5 times a day!! It is too cute. She sits and smiles through the whole thing. She even loves the "scary" parts!

I am still finding myself overwhelmed with thankfulness for everything that God has blessed us with, and can't wait to see what this next year has in store! (especially that whole family of 4 thing)
