Gadget Girl Update...

Well...Thanksgiving has come and gone...we had a good time! The girls got to visit with the grandparents....which is always great (for the grandparents...keeps them on their toes) haha But I am here to announce that I received an early Christmas present! Yep....remember when I talked about all things electronic on my wishlist....well my Dad (the awesome guy that he is) decided to get me a Kindle Fire!!! LOVE YOU DAD!  It rocks by the way.....I am still playing around with it and learning about all it has to offer, but so far, I am in love :)

So my hubby gets my Older Kindle and I am now able to read at night in bed while he is sleeping! It is the little things that amuse me :)

So if you were wondering what to get me for Christmas...HAHAHA...don't get the Kindle Fire....Dad beat ya to it!

Silly As Always,

Just a Nickname

Our girls have tons of nicknames....and I see nothing wrong with that at all. I myself had nicknames as a child....in fact my Dad still calls me by the one he gave me...and to tell you the truth, it is a great feeling. There is something special about having a name that only your Dad, Grandpa, etc calls you. Here are a few Audrey's...Monkey (I have called her this since day one) Squirrel (Todd's name for her), Audrey Girl, Hoo-dray, Audrey Cat....etc. She would probably kill me if she knew I posted this for the world to see.

Now Aurelia has a few as well...sweet pea, chipmunk, Pickle (because she can be quite sour at times), and her newest...Super Chunk...at 4 months of age....she weighs almost 16lbs...needless to say, I don't have small babies....and that is okay. Both of the girls are beautiful and I wouldn't change them for the world!

Absolute Silly!

Mother Daughter Fun!

Alrighty....I have either lost my mind or have decided it is time for me to get in shape....well maybe it is both. For those of you that have ever watched The Amazing Race on television, then you will know what I am talking about. Audrey and I have entered The Great Amazing Race here in Houston, which will be held on December 3, 2011. It will be teams of parents and kids completeing a 1 mile cross country event, including check points with puzzles, obstacle courses and all out fun.

Audrey has hit that..."you never do anything with me now since you have the baby" stage. SIGH....so this opportunity came along and I decided she and I can do this as a Mother/Daughter Team. I am looking forward to it actually and hope that those of you in Houston can come cheer us on.

Let me know if you need information!

As Always...
