Do you see what I hear?

That's all, no cute pictures. I just had to share the words Anabelle is singing through the house. I think that means it is almost Christmas time!

BIG NEWS PART 2!

First and most importantly, we are looking forward to girl number 3!!! We really are very excited. I'm just refusing to even imagine my house full of three teenage girls at the same time. Shannon on the other hand is a little nervous about three weddings. The girls are ecstatic. Anabelle has been telling us it was a girl for a while. I would say, "but what if it's a boy" and her response was either, "how 'bout a girl?" or "I named it a girl." Taylor did mention that maybe it would be a boy next time. YIKES!!!!!!

Our second piece of good news is that Shannon is employed! He has taken a job with Regions here in B'ham (even in the same building). Right now it looks great. He will be working less and have all the same benefits, etc as before. The fact that his commute won't change is an answer to prayers. He has begun training and I'll keep you updated on how he likes it. Thanks so much for all of your prayers and words of encouragement. You have no idea what they have meant to us.

GOD IS GOOD!!!!

Birthday Party Saturday

This has become a bit of a regular Saturday activity...This week was Savannah's dress up party. Both girls got to go and dress up and put on make up and fingernail polish. Taylor was sooo excited to find out that she got to bring her make up home with her.

I am so glad I was able to talk Shannon into going with me. I couldn't paint both girls fingernails at the same time so he had to join in. Notice the blue eyeshadow on Anabelle's cheeks.

We went to Taylor's Thanksgiving Feast today and got to hear a few songs, but that one was my favorite.

The election in the eyes of a two year old.

I was trying to explain voting, the election, etc to the girls this morning and Anabelle and I had the following conversation.

Me:...And we all get to choose who we want to be the president..

A: I want to pick my own one.

Me: Ok, which one do you want to pick for your president? Barack Obama or John McCain?

A: I want the pink pwesent, because that is my favowite.

I didn't have the heart to explain we were talking about presidents, not presents. Oh well.

On Saturday we went to Braydon's third birthday party. What a blast. They got a bouncy thing. (I'm sure they have names, I just don't know what they are) All the kids (including shannon) had so much fun.

Poor Braydon has some unexplicable fear of the Happy Birthday song. Even when you sing it to someone else. Did that stop everyone from singing to him? NO! This is his meltdown during the song. Bless his heart, we all tried sooo hard not to laugh.

Shannon spent the first half of the party reaching into the bouncy thing, playing with the kids. He wanted to get in sooo badly. When the crowd thinned out, we gave him the go ahead to get in. That was UNTIL a small two year old little boy came out crying b/c "That big man is scaring me. He's saying RAAAAAAHHHHH" Poor kid.
