New pictures



Typical Alabama winter. Bathing suit one minute and bundled up the next. I love the smile she has, especially in the bikini. She looks so excited to be in one. The 2nd picture reminds me of Laura Ingles....lol
All joking aside, I sure hope the bikini fits her in June when we go to Gulf Shores. She and her Dad are getting over a cold. Bo has a dry hacking cough and Allie has a congested cough. She has a head cold, according to the doctor. I took her in yesterday. He gave her a steroid for 5 days and a cough liquid also. Thank God she only has to take the steroid once a day. I can mix it with her morning cereal.

4 month update

Well, Allie is 4 months old. Wow! Time sure flies when you're having fun. She is loving life. She has been trying different foods. So far the only thing she hasn't liked has been green beans. She will eat them when they are mixed with squash and such. Oatmeal is going better than rice cereal. She will eat rice cereal when mixed with bananas, pears, or peaches.

Logan has started basketball. They have played 3 games. Their record is 1-2. There was some drama last game when the coach passed out. We were told he has low blood sugar. But, last night at practice, he said he has an appointment with a neurologist. So, we can only pray that he is ok.

We've made our reservations for our yearly visit to Gulf Shores. We splurged this year on a condo on the beach. I think Bo did that so he wouldn't have to get up early every morning and take us to the beach. I know it's 4 months away, but I've already got my countdown calendar on the computer. Can you say excited! I'm going to be putting a picture on later of Allie in her bikini.... Boy does the girl know how to work it. She is posing and everything. I laughed until I almost cried when I tried it on her. The crazy thing is, is that the bathing suit is a size 18 months.

We've got our vacation planned for next year also. It will be in April. A cruise to the Bahamas. Wow, a birthday present I can really love. Bo just isn't real good at picking out gifts, so we decided that this would be my birthday, our anniversary,and family vacation all rolled into one.

jibber jabber

That's pretty much what Allie is up to these days, jibber jabber. She has been so vocal lately. She love to squeal at the top of her lungs and has some pretty funny faces when you squeal back at her. We went to town today and got her a bathing suit for our trip to Gulf Shores. She looks so cute, I'll have to get the pictures on asap. She will be 4 months on Friday, but is wearing 6 to 9 month clothes. I can hardly wait for her next trip to the doctor.

Logan is doing good. School is great. He has A's on his progress report. So, if he keeps this up, this will make twice he's made all A's. Hard to believe he came from his dad and I. LOL!

Since we changed from cable to Dish, I've become addicted to a few new shows. "Real" housewives of Orange County. Notice the quotation marks around real. These folks wouldn't know a real housewife if one came up and punched her in her fake nose. It's one of those "reality" shows. But for some reason, I can't get enough. I haven't seen the one from New York or Atlanta, I think, But maybe soon, since the season finale was tonight.

Travel Channel is another one I really like. Man vs. Food is a good show. Watch it sometime, you'll see.

Bo is still working, I am still looking. The way it looks, I'll be a stay at home mom for a while. I don't mind really, I want to see Allie grow and be with her as much as possible. I think I've got everyone talked into going on a cruise. So, some my birthday next year, good Lord willing, I will be on a beach in the Bahamas....OMGoodness!!! I think we all deserve it. Something different. Not that there is anything wrong with Gulf Shores, but I'd love to see the beaches somewhere else.
