I'm once again super slack about posting on the blog. I know. I need to do better. I will try my best to post a little more often. We have just been so busy it seems like.
This past weekend I felt like I was on the go non-stop but it was seriously a GREAT weekend. Saturday morning, Mady and I went to my parents house for a while b/c my daddy was going to get me new tires. That afternoon, we went to Dakota's birthday party at Saluda Shoals. It was a blast and all the kids had a ton of fun! I can't believe that Kota-bug is 5 years old already! Today is her actual birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KOTA! Such a sweet girl <3 That night, we ate dinner at my parent's house and Mady went with her MiMi and Poppa. She was such a good baby all day even though she had only one 20 minute nap all day and it was in the car. I really have the best baby ever! :)
On Sunday after church, we took naps and then went back to my parent's house to play and eat dinner. My niece Bella was there so her Mady played out in the yard for a while. So far this week has proven to be fairly busy also. Last night, I had a meeting and tonight we are going to GiGi's house for dinner since Aunt Sandy is cooking! Love my family :)
So, this coming up weekend is Memorial Day and I'm off on Monday so I don't know what all we will have planned but I'm sure it will be fun. Update on Mady: She is now standing up all by herself from the sitting position and taking steps here and there. She is so close but I seriously think she is just so spoiled she doesn't need to walk. She knows everyone will carry her everywhere because everyone is always holding her. Rotten little booger! That's ok though...she's supposed to be that way!
I hope everyone has a fabulous day and remember to put God first (this is also a reminder for myself!)

Happy Birthday GiGi!
Today is my grandma's birthday who we now lovingly refer to as GiGi (short for great-grandma to the babies!). She is such a special person in my life and is definitely a role model. She raised 4 kids, helped raise 6 grandkids, and now has 3 great granddaughters! She is definitely the back-bone of our whole family. We love her dearly and I hope she has a wonderful birthday today!! :)

I know ya missed me
Man I gotta get better about this blogging thing! I haven't posted in like 10 days!! And I know all ya'll just missed me terribly so I'm here to update.
Well there isn't much to update on really. MadyLou is still as wild as ever but oh so happy! She is such an awesome baby. She MELTED my heart this weekend though. I was asking here where things/people were and I asked her "Where's Da-Da?" and she started looking around and then stared and pointed at the front door b/c she knew he wasn't home. Then I asked her "Where's Ma-Ma?" and she looked at me, leaned over and gave me a BIG hug and started giggling. She is so dang cute...and SMART! I just love her to pieces!
Anyways, so nothing else new is gong on. This weekend my BFF Carly's husband graduated from USC with a double major in Clinical Psychology and Religious Studies so we went to a couple (yes more than 1!) graduation parties for him. It was alot of fun and he is such an inspiration to so many people including myself! Yesterday was Mother's Day and we had the nursery at church. We only had like 5 kids which was odd but it was alot of fun. After church, we picked up Mady from her MiMi and Poppa's house and headed to the lake. We spent the afternoon with my mom, aunt & uncle, and my grandparents. I truly have a great family and can't God enough for them! ~~Happy Mother's Day again ya'll! Love you!~~
Also, last week, I "celebrated" my 5 year anniversary at my job. I use the word "celebrated" very lightly here b/c it's kinda bittersweet. For one, I'm thankful for my job and the job security in this economy when so many people don't have jobs however, I am TIRED of this job. It is not what I wanna do forever and I can't wait for school to start so I get busy on doing something I love! In the mean time, I come to work, do my job, and LOVE the people I work with (for the most part!).
As I go, I will leave you with a little bit of the devotional I did today. It really stood out to me.
"My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer." - Psalm 45:1
.....What is it that makes you live? What is it that motivates you? Everyone has a grand vision with a story to tell so we must find our "noble theme" for life.
