It seems like yesterday....

Do you ever have one of those moments where you just stop and take it all in? Tonight as I was putting Landry down in her crib, I just stood in the doorway and stared at my girls. I stood there for several minutes just thinking how lucky I am to have such healthy and beautiful daughters, I am so blessed!! I also realized while standing there that I am 28 years old and have been out of high school for 10 years....it seems like yesterday!

My "little" brother who is actually 24 years old, just had his first son, Jaxon :). Im so proud of him, he is going to be such a great Daddy. It seems like yesterday that I was trying to convince him not to tuck in his shirts so he would look cool, getting aggravated with him because he took up all the room in the back seat of the car, drinking pickle juice shots, watching movies OVER AND OVER while our parents were at work, playing endless hours of war, watching him learn the dances to Men in Black and Billy Madison, and calling in our favorite songs to KIXY.(I could go on all night long!)  I have so many memories of us together as kids and cant wait to see him create wonderful memories with his own little family.

This year has been such a big year and is still getting better! Landry was born March 20th, my nephew Jaxon was born on July 2nd, and my sister in law Lacy is due at the end of July with my nephew Jacody. When I was a kid I loved spending time with all my cousins , and I cant wait to see my girls and their cousins grow up together!
