It's been a while...

I was on a roll there for a while with the whole blogging thing, can't believe it's been over a week!

Last week I got to meet up with 2 sweet friends that also have sweet baby girls!  We had a great time sharing birth stories, our fav baby products and our routines.  I love mommy talk...it's so much fun!  It was an interesting meal to say the least...3 mommy's and 3 babies.  The hostess was a little dumbfounded!  Here is a pic of all 3 of our girls, Ellie, Ali and Emily.

 Ellie is still a busy bee just talking up a storm (aka cooing, babbling, etc....) and grabbing everything in sight.  My mom came to visit us yesterday so I could get some things done around the house and so she could hang out with her girl.  While they were having fun, I cleaned out my closet and dresser drawers.  I ended up with 3 huge garbage bags of clothes that Don took to Goodwill for me today.  I love having an organized closet!  I need to purge clothes more often, but it's hard.  I tend to be somewhat of a packrat.  I even found shorts from cheerleading camp from my freshman year in high school!  They had been worn so much the elastic was completely stretched out.  I also got all of my LU and AOII tshirts together so I can eventually have them all made into a quilt.  I have been wanting to do this for years, so at least I have the first step done.  Mom also brought lunch for us and helped me with the never ending laundry we have.  Thanks for coming De De!!

Mom had so much fun with Ellie on her visit that she volunteered to take her back to Bartlett for the night so we could have a break.  I gratefully accepted, so Don and I got a much needed date night...dinner and a movie!  Three months ago I would have never dreamed I would want a night off, but we needed it.  With his crazy work schedule we rarely have any time to ourselves, so it was nice!  Thanks again, Peeps and DeDe!

Until next time, I'll leave you with a few pics of this sweet face!!
