Loving life!

Life is good Gillybean. Your brother is officially now a 4th grader and you're a busy 2 1/2 year old little girl. Right now I'm sitting in the bathroom of our home, off 110th Way and you're in the bath. You're just sitting there in warm water and playing with toys and lots of bubbles. Summer is in full swing and you two have kept me so BUSY!

The pictures above are of you and Nee Nee playing on the slip and slide. You two spent hours just playing. Life is simple but so rewarding with you two near me. I love you both so much, I just can't explain it. I love waking up to you two each day, I go crazy when you two keep me busy/annoyed during the day (all which I love, trust me) and I love watching you two fall asleep. Simple stuff in life that makes me, your mom, so happy.

You're forming sentences now. Your speech is sorta sloppy but we understand what you're saying. You still love Dora and playing with your dolls. Triston is all about his Transformers X-Box.

In about a week and a half we head to North and South Carolina. Last time you were there you were in my stomach. I was 8 1/2 months pregnant with you. I can't wait to get you there so you and Triston can play in the water and make sandcastles.

I love you Gillian. I love you Triston.

Love,

Mommy

My technology baby

I went to look at some pictures I had on my computer this morning and found a video you created all by yourself last night. How did you know what to do? You crack me up! You are almost 2 1/2 years old and you're a total DIVA! You sleep in our bed and tend to kick daddy out to sleep on the couch, poor dad. Your favorite word, literally is NO and you love, LOVE to give lots of hugs and kisses to everyone you know. You're thriving so well in this world baby girl. I love you so much. You and Triston are the world to me!!! You both drive me nuts but I love you SO MUCH!

Love,

Mommy

BUSY BEE!

My Macbook

Between you and Triston, it was bound to happen. My Macbook died, done, crashed, wouldn't even turn on. So needless to say I haven't had a chance to blog about you or Triston. Now that I have a new computer, it's time to talk about you and your big brother.

We just got back from you and Triston's first cruise down the Mexican Rivera. It was amazing. You kept GOING and GOING and so did Triston. He actually stayed out til 3:30 in the morning with cousin Rylee. It was a party that Carnival had for kids. You two were so tired on the drive home from California, all you did was sleep. Both of you. Here are some pics of you and Triston on the trip.

We went on this trip with the entire family. That's right! Papa, Lola, Tammy, Rob, Ireland, Rylee, Crystal, Eli, Noah, Charlie and our little family....all on one trip. It was so much fun. Both you and Triston had the best time. So did I. We plan on going on another family cruise soon and I can't wait.

I can't wait to do more vacations with you and Triston. Explore new things. Make new memories.

I love you,

Mommy
