Still catching up -

 A few more of J&L's 1st Christmas!!

 Weekend Getaway visiting Gma & Papa in Destin

This brings us to the month of February - See that was much easier you saw a little bit of what we've been up to and didn't have to even read about it ;) WIN-WIN in my book!!

Last night Stephen and I had a date night with some old friends,  Drew and Lacy.  It was so nice to catch up with them and talk ...you guessed it BABIES!  Well Lacy and I talked babies and the boys talked trucks.....

Their little girl Haley is due in less then a month, I can not wait to meet her!  We ate at Tractors in Perryville and it was very good, I'm shocked that we hadn't ate their before - great food and good atmosphere!  Highly recommend it!

Well it is Superbowl Sunday everyone...Today is my cousin Mallory's Birthday, so we're headed to this new mommas birthday party for Lunch (and I get some major cuddling time with Baby Owen!)  After Stephen gets off work at 3, we're headed to Marion to celebrate our niece's 2nd Birthday this evening.  The official birthday isn't until next week but its easier to get everyone together on the weekend!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALLIE NICOLE!

After some good pizza and cake we are HOPING to get back home in time to catch some of the SUPERBOWL! 

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the weekend - Why is it they seem to go by SO.STINKING.FAST aghh

Welcome back!

Yeah I know its been awhile!  I could give all the excuses in the world but they all will end at the same conclusion - Blogging has taken a little bit of a backseat with our new routine this new year.  Stephen is working a new schedule 8hr shifts...set days off...and switching EVERY MONTH - I know there are THOUSANDS of families that spend their life living with "shift work" but just went we get settled into his nights off, sleeping patterns etc its a new month and everything changes.

January was OK - he worked midnights 11p-7a so the upside was that he was home in the evenings to help with bedtime...bad thing was our babysitter (my mom) was in Destin for the month...PTL Stephens dad retired at Christmas and was willing to become a part time babysitter, full time PaPa!  He helped us more then he will EVER know!

Now that we are in the month of February Stephen has moved to Day shift.  Yes for the first time since we have been married he ISN"T on midnights!  Im a little unsure how my nights will ever be the same!  J/K but we all get settled into a routine and now he will be home every night for 5 WHOLE MONTHS!  Working Feb. and March on days...April, May & June on 2nds!  Not going to lie Im pretty excited to have evenings as a family!

Well I do realize I took about a month off of blogging so instead of giving a play by play I figured it would be easier to post a few pictures the next few days instead!

Have a good weekend all -

Christmas Morning!
