Memories

So the other night we were eating dinner together and Piper did something that sparked a memory of when she was a baby. So I proceeded to tell her the story which she laughed and laughed about. Then she said tell me another story about when I was a baby. So I thought of one and she loved it and laughed and laughed. Then she said, 'tell me a story about Bailey when she was a baby' and so I did and they laughed. Then, yup you guessed it, she asked for ANOTHER story and...I COULDN'T THINK OF ANY MORE!!! SAD!!!! How sad is it that I can think of maybe two funny stories about Piper and one for Bailey. So I told her I would before bed and hurried and grabbed my journal to see if it would spark some memories. Sadly it did not. they were all pretty boring entries but there would be pages that said..."write about Piper's Christmas when she was scared of Santa and the reindeer...Piper buying crocks at walmart... and so on. BUT guess who never wrote about those things:( So I've been pretty mad at myself and Curtis keeps telling me to write in my journal more or I'll regret it which is so true (how come it doesn't apply to him though - I never see him writing in his journal!!) So that's a new goal of mine. However, today I have been bored and was looking at the blog and realized I blogged about a bunch of stuff I never thought worthy to journal about HOORAY! SO now I am committing to being a better blogger!

SO what's new in Claytonville...

We just got back from Disney World a couple weeks ago! We had so much fun and I need to post pictures but there are SOOOOOO many that I just can't deal with going through them right now! So those pics are to come. The picture above is the day after we got back of the girls playing with the legos Grandmommy and daddy got them. Piper is OBSESSED!

The girls are doing great. I think Piper is allergic to the sun!! Well probably not really but she had a rash all over her body that only comes out when we've been outside. Not sure what to do about that one...

Bailey's little personality is SOOOOOO increadibly fun. I just love her. I cannot get enough of her little personality. She cracks me up DAILY. This is her most recent cuteness... (note: she just started saying yes, no has been her word of choice thus far in her little life, and she says it "da" AND she just started saying Piper's name which is "Pa Pa" and she says meow meow for cat.)

so saying prayers at night, we of course help her and this is what I heard the other night...

Curtis: Dear Heavenly Father, we're grateful for this day and our many blessings...

Bailey: silence

Curtis: We're grateful for mommy

Bailey: mama

Curits: We're gratefull for Daddy

Bailey: dada

Curtis: We're grateful for Piper

Bailey: Pa Pa

Curtis: We're grateful for doggies

Bailey: doggy

Curtis: We're grateful for kitty cats

Bailey: meowmeow

Curtis: We're grateful for the fun we had playing with our friends and for all the good food we have

Bailey: Da

Curtis: Please bless that we can have a good night sleep

Bailey: uh - huh

Curits: In the name of Jesus Christ - Amen

Bailey: Amm

You're inspiring me to blog more often too-that's way easier than keeping a journal!
So you're in Texas now? And have another girl on the way?! How exciting!
Still miss you guys! Hope you're doing great.
