A little catch up...

Well after Christmas I had great intentions of posting Christmas pictures and telling everyone what a great holiday we had BUT...life got in the way! The fast few weeks have been a little crazy. I always have 100 things going on, literally.

Normal people make New Years revolutions like, lose weight and get healthy, you know that stuff you do for 3 days and then say screw it. Well, this year instead of saying I'm going to start weight watchers, I said I was going to start being more eclectic. Sounds weird, I know. I follow this blog where Lou Lynn, the woman I don't know but feel like I'm BFF with, refinishes old furniture and makes amazing clothes for her girls. I like my house but I'm sick of everything being so matchy matchy. So basically, I'm making my life even more crazy and "trying" to refinish some old furniture. (I'll post pictures of this very soon!)

On top of that, my sister and her family are moving to Miami. My brother in law Huey, has been looking for a new job for quite a while and a great opportunity came available in Miami. So in the matter of 2 weeks, he interviewed, accepted a job, packed and moved. It has been quite an emotional ride. My sister and I are very close, we hang out with our kids a couple times a week and we also have our new children's clothing line, My Bella Bums. This has been a very emotional ride. Although I'm excited Huey has a new job--his old job SUCKED--he and my sis and niece are moving 5 hours away!

In the last few days of packing and moving I got the pleasure of watching my niece Addison. Kylie and Addison are just like sisters, in fact if I could remember being their age I'm sure that is exactly how Tiffany would have been. One minute they love each other and can't get enough of each other the next second it's pure chaos! Here are some pictures of them in the last few days. It has been really sad because although Kylie doesn't understand the distance, she keeps saying how much she is going to miss Addison when she is in "mydadsami"....hahaha, yes, that is how she interprets Miami, my-dads-ami.

Addison LOVED sweet and sour sauce!

From the mouth of babes...

Christmas morning 6:55 am...
Kylie calling from her room "Mommy.......Mom......(a few minutes later), Mommy....Mom."
Mom calling from her room "Kylie, come out of your room."
Kylie (in a scared voice) "I can't Santa is coming and he will see that I'm not sleeping!"

From the mouth of babes...

Mom "Kylie, stop jumping in Bryces crib."
Kylie "Mom, I was just practicing!"
Mom "Practicing what?"
Kylie "How many jumps I can do."

My niece Addison just turned 2 and had a cute minnie mouse party. I made her this outfit for her party and she looked so stinkin cute! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADDISON! Aunt Sherry loves you!




Bryces big day!

There is nothing better than a 1st birthday party...well I guess if it's not your kid it's not that great. But this time, it was my kid! I'm still amazed that Bryce is a year old, even though the first 6 months of his life seemed like 6 years! If you know me, you know that Bryce was not the best baby. Ok let's face it, you all know I love him, he was the worst baby! I don't know if I was spoiled rotten with Kylie who came out with a halo (that fell off somewhere around 14 months) or if it was really that bad! Thankfully Brycey Boy took a turn for the better around 6 months. We still have not mastering the sleeping through the night thing but practice makes perfect! Today Bryce is such a loving little guy. He is my snuggler that Kylie never was. He loves to dance and is very good at it! He loves his sister and her dolls, hair brushes and strollers. Climbing is his new dangerous trick and of course getting into the dog bowls! We are so blessed to have him in our life!
Bryce had a great time at his John Deere birthday party. The weather was cold and wet so we had quite a crowd in the house but the good company and food made up for it. We had hot dogs with my delish dog chili, meatballs, minorcan clam chowder, yummy ham and swiss sandwiches smothered in gooey wonderfullness, pb&j (for the kiddos), fruit salad, sweet heat dip and my moms homemade hummus. Never a lack of food at this house! Here are some pics of Bryces big day:
