After a long Thanksgiving day, we decided to just go back to Owasso and stay with Nona and Papa again, so that we wouldn’t have to pack everything up yesterday. Getting the girls and all of our stuff packed up and ready to leave (and Max and Annie too!) is quite an ordeal. We just […]
Wow, what a day. Mama, Jacinda and Nona cooked all day and everyone took turns holding little Olivia in between their chores. Papa took Gabriella out in the wagon. Aunt Denna stopped by in the afternoon and got a little Olivia love in. After a long day, Olivia got a famous sink bath, while Gabriella […]
After packing all day and getting ready, we finally had everyone loaded up and ready to head to Owasso for the Thanksgiving holiday. We always go a little early and spend the night a couple of nights, so that Mama can help Nona with the cooking and the getting ready for a housefull. We got […]
Today was a tough day on the girls. Daddy was back at work and Gammie and Nona are both still pretty sick, so Mama was on her own today with Gabriella and Olivia. Olivia was extra fussy all day and Gabriella wasn’t feeling well either. When daddy came home from work, we had dinner and […]
Olivia had a big day out today. Nona came over in the afternoon to stay with Gabriella, while Mama and Olivia went to the Salon to get Mama’s hair all fixed up. All the girls there were excited to see her. She just slept away, until the first clip of Mama’s hair fell. She woke […]
Everyone was up early this morning. Daddy was off to work and Mama got Olivia fed. Next it was to the kitchen to make breakfast for Gabriella. Mama propped Olivia up on the couch for a few minutes to watch some TV with Gabriella while she got the swing ready. Gabriella liked having a little […]
Gabriella loves her sister. If she doesn’t know where she is, she runs around looking for her. She always tries to share her sippy cup, or a french fry or a wood block. We have to keep a close eye on her because she loves her so much! Her new favorite thing to do is […]
Mama’s cousin Aubry got married last week in Puerto Vallarta. Today they had a wedding reception at Aunt Denna’s house. We spent the night in Owasso last night and woke up to the delicious smells on Nona making breakfast. The girls ate and we talked on the porch a little, but it was quickly time […]
After working late last night, daddy had to work all afternoon today too. Mama decided to get the girls packed up and take them out to Owasso. Grandma was in town from Arkansas and hadn’t seen Olivia yet, and Mama needed a little help with Gabriella and Olivia so it was the perfect deal. Daddy […]
Daddy had to work late at the office tonight, so since Gammie had been over at the house with the girls all day, she stayed to help out until daddy got home. She kept Gabriella entertained, helped get her dinner ready and fed her, while Mama took care of Olivia. Daddy finally got home around […]
Nona came over today to help out with the girls. She stayed for dinner because Papa had a meeting to go to after work. We decided to eat left overs and watch Survivor. Luckily Papa’s meeting was much shorter than expected, so he got to the house in time to watch with us. Olivia slept […]
Tonight we got a real treat. Uncle Greg and Aunt Jacinda came over for dinner. They brought Lanna Thai. Gabriella was so excited because she loves their food. She loves the dumplings and rice. Daddy got home a little late from work, so they were there and the table was set and ready when he […]
After a weekend with no grandmothers, they both returned today. Mama was happy, because they are both so much help. Daddy had to go back to work since it’s Monday, but Nona was over pretty early this morning to help with the girls. Daddy came home just after noon and brought lunch. We ate and […]
We took the girls out again tonight. We went out for dinner. We couldn’t decide where to go, so we just loaded up in the car and drove. Daddy eventually made his way to Hideaway Pizza. Olivia slept in her car seat in a chair the entire time. I let out a couple of little […]
Since Gabriella has been sick for the past couple of weeks, we have really kept the girls in the house for the most part. She has been feeling better and Mama was ready to get out of the house. The girls were too, so we got outta here. First we went to Ron’s Hamburgers and […]
Today was daddy’s first day back at work. It wasn’t too much fun. We all four got up early. Mama got up at the same time as daddy so that she could feed Olivia before Gabriella woke up and was ready for her milk, breakfast and morning routine. It didn’t quite work out so well, […]
Today was Olivia’s first checkup with Dr. Mayberry. Gammie came over in the early afternoon to stay with Gabriella while Mama and daddy took Olivia’s to her appointment. Gammie got there early so that we could get ready and get Olivia ready. She made lunch for Gabriella and fed her. We were finally ready to […]
Nona came over in the early morning and helped us with the girls all day. Nona made corn chowder for dinner. Papa came over after work to have dinner with us and see the girls. Uncle Greg and Aunt Jacinda stopped by too. Gammie came by to see the girls too. Once it got dark, […]
Mama and daddy got brave today! Gabriella was feeling much better, so we decided to take the girls out to lunch. Gabriella was getting a little restless and tired of being inside and Mama was too. So we loaded up in the car and headed for Wendy’s. Olivia got lots of compliments as she slept […]
Daylight Savings Time was a big blessing for us this morning. Mama and daddy both actually forgot about it. We woke up for Olivia’s middle of the night feeding at 3:30 this morning. Daddy went downstairs to get Mama and snack and something to drink while she was feeding Olivia and noticed that some of […]
