So Busy!

I feel like we have been crazy busy doing a whole lot of nothing! I'm not sure where the day goes! Between eating, sleeping, and changing LOTS of poopy diapers there doesn't seem to be much time for anything else! But, we managed to squeeze in a few things this last week!

We were able to get a night out this weekend (thanks again to Grandma Diane) to celebrate Kristy's birthday. With 2 mommies and a mommy-to-be we don't celebrate birthdays quite the way we used to in the good ole' days! However, we were able to enjoy great company, delicious tapas, and some yummy sangria!


This week we also had Mya's 6 month pictures taken. Considering the photoshoot was during her naptime, she didn't do too badly. She wasn't as smiley as she has been in past photoshoots, but we are hoping we got some decent shots! Her outfit was so cute I couldn't resist taking some of my own pictures when we got home.


We are still in negotiations for our dreamhouse. This deal has been a complete NIGHTMARE!!! We have done a lot of waiting, waiting, and more waiting this week. We have signed our contract, but we are waiting for the bank to sign theirs. It will be SO worth it when the deal comes to fruition. Because this is a foreclosure, there are lots of hoops we have to jump through in order to close the deal. As my sister says, "There's just something special about this house." I agree 100%! I have spent many wakeful nights thinking about the perfect paint colors, furniture, light fixtures, appliances, etc! I am using all of my restraint to not start buying things for the house that doesn't even belong to me yet! I NEED this deal to come to a close before I drive myself and my family nuts! I will post pictures WHEN, not IF we close the deal!

Mya and I visited Auntie Andra and her cousins a couple of times this week. Mya's cousins LOVE her so much! They beg to hold her and have to take turns! Tyler (2) especially loves his little cousin. He usually greets us at the door and is very anxious for me to take the "B-be" out of the carseat so that he can hold her. Today he called her "Mya" for the first time! He doesn't say much, but when he does it is so precious! He is very gentle with her and gives her lots of kisses! I can't wait for them to grow up to be best buds! This picture was taken on my picture phone so it's not the best quality. But, you can see the pride on Tyler's face as he holds his baby cousin!


This last picture was just too cute not to post. Mya loves her Daddy and Daddy loves his Mya. It melts my heart when I see the two together! She gets the most precious smile when she looks at him. Here she is just completely mesmerized by him. I fall in love all over again with both of them when I see them together!
