Lula tells us to sssssssh. all the time like that means she
doesn't need to listen to what we are saying

She also uses the sound bbptmm.. as a swear word

sometimes she is sweet.. but not a lot

she is cute enough to get away with it though

our new stockings .. i can't believe it is time to take all the Christmas Decorations down. 2008 flew by.. I am glad for some reasons but it is crazy to think that time is going to keep going by faster and faster. I don't know that I can keep up. I want to freeze my girls at this stage in their lives. I will miss all the cuddles and loves. Their innocence and the co dependence is annoying at times but I also find it comforting and I am not quite sure that I will be able to let them grow all the way up. I find some comfort in the fact that I still need my mom but it will be strange to become an observer rather than a main character in their lives. That is all the philosophy I am going to write so you can stop ignoring my sad whiny story. i hope everyone is renewed with 2009 and that things go fantastically. love to you.

Meet Our Puppy Minnnie Bell

Santa brought our girls this cute Miniture Schnauzer for
Christmas and they love her sooooooo much. It was hard for
the girls to choose a name... in the running were Jesus, Gabriel,
Present, Christmas and Silver Bells.She is sweet and we are
hoping she can survive all the visits to T's beauty
shop, all the baby snuggling from G and F, and that we can survive
the potty training and teething.... wish us luck.
