Point Mallard

Today was Abby's first trip to Point Mallard!

She was VERY overwelmed at first, plus it was REALLY crowded -like its amazing how many people go to that place! I would never wait in lines that long if I was a kid haha! Anyways, we went with Gerald's sister, Tasha, and her kids, Kayli and Chase! Their family blog is here.


Abby started to warm up pretty quickly, see:



and here she is on the swing which she really liked:



She went on the slide a few times too, but I didn't get a picture of that :(


Over all it was a very fun day and i'm glad we got to go with them! Abby could've just laid on in the wave pool for the rest of the day


but she got VERY cranky and we headed home. Tomorrow it's off to the beach!! Post on that coming up next =)


Love,
Tiffany


p.s. my cousin  Katie got a blog, yay! You can read it here.

First Day

So today was my first day at work, I didn't really do much but listen to someone tell me all of my duties, the rules, and they also gave me a tour of the salon, etc. I really think i'm going to love it though and i'm pretty excited to actually getting started doing stuff next week.

On another note, Abby is doing REALLY good this week with potty training. She really wants to wear "big girl panties," so hopefully we are on the road to that. Not having to buy pullups is going to be awesome! I am so proud of her though :)

Oh yeah, we are going to leave for Destin thursday, can't wait! Abby is so so excited, she keeps telling everyone she's going to the beach and she's going to see the ocean and build sand castles! This will be the first time she has gone since she was six months old. Also i'm excited because the 4th is extra special to me, it's my pawpaw's birthday. He was my favorite person and I love to remember him when all of the fireworks are going off, but the down side of that is when the fireworks are going off it also gets me emotional too.. but a happy emotional I guess you could say haha! Anyways, i'm really looking forward to this weekend and will try to post all about it, along with some good pictures!

Love,

I'm A Horrible Blogger

This is going to be a boring update because I still have no camera, & hate blogging without pictures.

So I have an update.. got a job at Shine Salon, my favorite salon in Decatur since highschool.. so i'm so excited about that! I'll post more on that after I start. Abby is growing faster and faster, she amazes me everyday at the things she says. Oh my gosh like when she said a cuss word the other day copying my cousin. I asked Abby what our neighbors name was, then Katie mumbled "dumb ass," really quietly. Then Abby said "Thats dumb ass." We could not help but bust out laughing, so Abby continued to say it (thinking it was funny).. Finally I was able to get serious and explain that it was a bad word which she wasn't too happy about! Another update is that i'm starting school this fall at Calhoun, i'm very excited but also even more nervous. Working, planning a wedding, being a mommy, AND going to school (plus without a car) is going to be a HUGE change for me and Gerald (he is going to start school in January). Especially when I still haven't gotten anything done for the wedding, it stresses me out thinking about wedding plans. We might not be able to have a reception because we just don't have the money for it (I seriously never knew weddings were SO expensive it's ridiculous). Maybe something will work out so we can have it but it's not looking good (the court house is starting to sound like a really great idea!!) Enough about that because my mind is starting to get stressed about it by just typing it haha.  Anyways, I think we are going camping tomorrow night in Tennessee, maybe! I will post about it if we do, wish I was able to take picturs though!

Love,

Tiffany

Kidless

Gosh I never write on here anymore...it's just no fun with no camera to post pictures, but i'm trying haha! Anyways, this weekend we are kidless, we met gerald's sister in Jasper yesterday for her to go spend the weekend with them in Birminghamd. I miss her but I know Abby is having a blast, she loves Christen and Ben (and of course all of the rest of the family) haha but she was so excited to go she kept saying "so exciting!", "oh my goodness". Abby is talking SO much now and its pretty clear to understand most of the time, she is getting so smart! She is just the sweetest little thing her favorite color is purple... she lovesss to say "oh my goodness" (like prissy with her hand over her mouth). She also loves to fake laugh, that is also another prissy thing she does. OH and I wish I had a picture of her new bad habbit.. I don't know how but somehow she has learned to like stick her little booty out, shake it, and pat her butt, and pose like she's taking a picture... the first time she did it I could not help but laugh so of course now she thinks its funny and always does it.. my friend Krista has a picture I will have to get one from her to embarrass her when she's older ;)

Anyways, since we didn't have a kid last night we took advantage of going out with friends we haven't hungout with in a while.. we went to Maria Bonitas, the bowling alley, and Clay Womack's house. Me and Gerald never go out, so it was a bad idea to drink alot..but we did and i'm not feeling so great this morning. Hope it gets better by later today so we can get things done!

I'll try to post more often.

Love,

Tiffany
