Cute Picture

My mother in law emailed me this picture today. I thought it was such a great picture that I had to put it on the blog. I think Savannah really looks like her daddy and Oma in this picture! Very cute!

Counting the days....

So Joel and I leave on Saturday morning for our cruise. I am sooo excited!!! We will be gone for 1 week. Savannah will be staying with my parents. I know she will be in great hands, but am still a little sad about being away from her for so long. This is our first trip without her. I am so busy trying to get us all packed, clean the house, and finish last minute errands. I will probably not post again until we get home next weekend. But check back then because I am sure I will have LOTS of pictures to share!! Please pray for our safety and that Savannah (and mommy) do ok without each other!

Enjoying the Day!

Here are a few pictures of Savannah playing at our neighbors house today. She loves to play over there with her buddies Owen and Soren! She hasn't gotten to play outside in a couple of weeks. Between her being sick and the weather being cold we have been stuck in doors. So it was very nice to put on a light jacket today and enjoy the weather!

Snow Day!

Last week we had some snow come into the Carolina's. They were predicting 2-4 inches. I was so excited because Savannah has never seen snow or gotten to play in it yet because we didn't have any last year. Well as you can see we only ended up getting a dusting of snow which was gone by the afternoon. Not nearly enough to play in. Hopefully we will get a better snow before the winter is over. She did however, get to watch it snow for a little while. She just stared at it. It was very cute!

Dear God, Thank you for my food...and please tell my mommy I can have 2 cookies! (Savannah was saying her prayer before having her dessert (a yummy cookie, or Coo-Coo as she calls them)

She loves to get "stickies" and put them all over herself

My poor baby when she was sick

Savannah is finally feeling better! Praise God! Here are a few random pictures I took recently. I thought they were cute! Will post more later!

I was recently awarded a blog award by my friend Margaret (sohappilyus). Thanks Margaret! I love sharing our life's adventures with family and friends. And love even more knowing that people enjoy hearing about it.

Quick Update

So I know I haven't blogged in while. I have not had much time alone and the time I have had I have been spending trying to pick up and clean the house. Savannah has really not been feeling well, which is why I haven't had much time. She wants me to hold her ALL the time and I have given in to her request since I know she really isn't feeling well. After 5 days of a temperature and seeing no improvement I decided I needed to take her back to the Dr. I took her on Tuesday and boy am I glad I did. It turns out she has RSV and an ear infection in BOTH ears! Poor thing! They gave me an antibiotic for her ear infections and told me just to keep a close eye on her cough and breathing. It has now been a week since she got sick. This has been the most sick she has ever been. Hopefully she will be good as new VERY soon! I hate to see her sick! I will post some pictures (I have to take some first) and update my blog again soon!
