About Me

Jared and I have been married two years now. In November we will have been together 9 years. Crazy to think. We definitely grew up together and I think that's what makes us work so well. We had a daughter in June and we're not sure why we didn't do so sooner. We love her with our life. She is the best thing that's ever happened to us. I love having my own family. We live in Fayetteville and LOVE IT. We are always back and forth on whether or not we'll move back to Alma. I see us back down there one day but I see our life always being in NWA. If only we could pack our families up and move them up here!

May Flowers

Well it's May and I seriously can NOT believe it. I feel like Christmas will be here in the blind of an eye.

A lot has been going on but of course, Ruby first. :)

She is thriving like crazy and I couldn't be more thankful for it. She's crawling all over the place. A lot of the time it's as fast as she possibly can. She's still chatting it up. I've noticed that she's stopped saying all the words she knows as much as just pointing, crawling to it, or just waving. She babbles more than saying actual words. But she still says "daddy, yeah, okay, no" a lot. It's crazy how she answers us. She just recently started saying "Tucky" and pointing at his picture on the refrigerator. Those two are best buds!

She had her first wipe out yesterday morning. She always sits in my bathroom while I'm getting ready. She opens drawers, cabinets, and the toilet (when we're not looking). She wants everything OUT of it. Except for the toilet of course she likes to put stuff in it. :) Anyway, she was in the bottom drawer standing over it. I was putting my makeup on and Jared was shaving. I hear him gasp so I look down at her and she looked mortified sitting down and fell backwards hitting her head so at first that's why I thought she was crying. But Jared told me she basically ate the drawer when she fell. Then I saw the blood. Poor baby girl. She stopped crying after 3 minutes or so but mommy did not. She was laughing at me. Haha! She has a little boo boo on her chin and busted her bottom lip on the inside and her upper gums. Man I really need her to not do that anymore.

Tonight, SHE WALKED!!!! It's so crazy! I've been trying to get her to walk and she just gets mad and sits down and cries. Well, tonight she just took off. It was so cute! Only three steps but still! Jared and I were so excited and screaming and clapping. She just sat down and waved at us. What a wonderful thing to experience together!

This past weekend was Race for the Cure. What amazing experience. My sister Tiffany came up and we rode together. The turn out was unbelievable. I am in awe at the amount of women and men who support such a great cause. I think everyone should! Especially WOMEN! Tiffany and I did a little shopping and eating afterwards. We were all pooped. Ruby and I came home and played outside the rest of the day. Jared planted two rose bushes and some other flowers. The flower bed looks awesome. So glad he doesn't mind doing the outside chores. ;)

I think that's all I've got. I have to spend this month planning little girl's birthday party next month. Crazy! It's also Jared's birthday month. Fun fun!!!!

Have a great week!
