 ha ha SO sweet
 ughh I could EAT her
 ok so it was a bit chilly, but we got dressed and took some pics in the grandparents backyard
 If ONLY i knew she were about to jump. She saw HOP and was showing me what the bunnies do.  I Love this picture, even if her head is chopped !! I think i could crop the picture at her waist and it would be just as cute !!

 Happy Easter... maybe I'll get a pic of them together but Lanier is just stubborn and I ain't gonna force it


 after being in waiting rooms for 2 days, Marrin is all about laying out and relaxing
 ha ha. Love this one
 enjoying their Easter baskets

 OK so MIGHT be one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE pictures.  I feel like i am just looking through a window as time stands still. No to mention that there are 3 generations in the photo and the 4 women I LOVE LOVE LOVE

 pre Easter egg hunting.  She loved it




 The girls didn't get to meet Emersyn but MOM and I did !!


 Beautiful Family.  They look like this could be in People Magazine or something :)

niece Anna Laura

we've got a first timer her folks
 watching all the lights
 a day at the zoo with Court and Carter










and on April 15th Marrin had her HALF BIRTHDAY !!!  I think I took them a couple days earlier to the doctor for their 6 month and 2 year check ups. Marrin weighed 15lbs 4 oz  and was 50th in weight, 75th percentile in height and 10th percentile in head circumference. Lanier weighed 24 lbs 10 oz and that's all I remember.  Sorry Missy.
So Marrin is sitting up, rolling from her back to belly, drooling EVERYWHERE, she is babbling up a storm and has the sweetest smile.  She is still not the best sleeper, but thats OK, we forgive her. She takes 7-8 oz bottles and eats twice a day.  She has got some light blonde hair coming in and no teeth.  She is such a sweetheart. ohh and we are still on our Prevacid.
Lanier is just growing right before my eyes.  Her vocabulary Amazes me everyday. She is so smart and counts to 10 + ( she loves 13 and 14 too).  She knows her colors. she still loves her DeDe and Deets ( blankies new name from somewhere). She is sleeping in her BIG girl bed that is up off the floor and has no rails ( just a body pillow). She walks around saying " I yove you to everyone and everything." She loves tomatoes, blueberries, apples, fishy prets(zels), any dried fruit and her new obsession ( thanks in part to her father) chocie MILK !! she hates yogurt and applesauce.  TOY STORY is in full force around our house.  It's also so nice to be able to reason with her, as in, take 3 bites and you can have this :)
