Home Sweet Home

While I was in Georgia, I found this picture of me when I was a baby along with the dress I was wearing in it, so I had to bring it home with me and take some pictures of Delilah in the dress!







While Jonas and I were in Vegas, we went to Build-A-Bear and made two bears, one for Keegan and one for Delilah. Here is Keegan with his new bear
Lila was just so excited to be home :)
My boys being silly
My angel baby and myself. Keegan now calls her "angel baby" because he has heard me say it so many times
This would be super cute if Jonas didn't look so creepy, lol
Stopped for a quick pose while playing golf...inside the house! Oh boy haha
=D
Getting soo big!

Georgia

After Vegas, I went to Georgia to pick up the kids and stayed for a little while. Here are some of the pictures from my stay.

Wills Park in Alpharetta, Georgia, is on of the best parks I've ever seen. I played on it when I was a kid, so taking Keegan there was so exciting for me, and for him. It is so much fun!






My little sister Paityn and I
We had Jonas on Facetime and Keegan was being really cranky and I had to capture the moment lol
My brother Trent and Delilah
We had dinner at a friends, it was delicious and fun to get together
We call this Lila's "sexy pose" haha she does this all the time!
My mom and I
Gigi (Dad's wife) and Lila, we had to improvise on PJs for Lila one night when we slept over at my dad's and didn't expect it. She's wearing her Uncle Jason's (age 5) pjs! haha
Amanda and I have been friends since we were 9, we were college roommates, and still friends today! love that girl : )
Again, improvising on the pajamas. Look at how long Lila's legs look! haha
In the morning, she still has her tired face hehe
Lila was loving on Uncle Trent this trip
Keegan in his new outfit that Poppy (my dad) got him!
He didn't want me to hold him lol
Being silly
Conner and his girlfriend Monica (best picture they'd let me get of them) on Conner's 15th birthday. He is now driving the roads of Atlanta so WATCH OUT!!
At Conner's birthday dinner with little sisters Reagan (9) and Paityn (16).
Momma and I at the dinner
I'm glad I got to see family but also glad to be back home and in my routine now!

Lila's First Step..??

So I can not verify this, BUT apparently, while Jonas and I were in Las Vegas, Lila took her first step in the presence of my dad. The way he describes it sounds real, she was standing with her hands on the ottoman (which she can do) then took her hands off and took one step, then fell to the ground. I might just be in denial because I wish I was there for it, but apparently, she took her first step the day before Jonas's birthday, February 26th!

Las Vegas

Jonas and I celebrated his 26th birthday in Las Vegas this year, it was so much fun! Luckily my mom was able to watch the kids to make this trip happen, so thank you Mom! :) We didn't take too many pictures from the trip, but here they are!

The first night we were there we stayed at Paris, this was the view from our window

Inside The Forum at Caesar's Palace, where we stayed the following two nights
This is by far Keegan's favorite picture from the trip! He couldn't believe I got to meet the real Woody, he gets so excited every time he sees this haha.
We went to an oxygen bar and that was quite an experience haha.

While we were there I got to see some family. Above is a mixture of cousins, an aunt, and two uncles. Below is three of my cousins closest in age to me.

While we were there we went to Phantom of the Opera and Cirque du Soleil - Mystère. Both shows I highly recommend, but nothing tops Cirque de Soleil. It was really awesome, hilarious and very entertaining. I'm so glad we got to celebrate his birthday in such a great way! :)

Privileges

Before I go further with either posting publicly or making the blog private, I want everyone to know that viewing these pictures and stories about my children and family is a privilege, not a right. I don't believe that making the blog private is fair to all of those people who have been good and honest to and about my family, and everybody else that wants to view the blog. I am still not ready to let those who have severely let me down recently see the most important things in my life, I do not know when the time will come that I am. I just want everybody to know these things and to always remember to be kind, honest, and loving, especially when it comes to family. I really don't understand why anyone would do anything otherwise. It is taking A LOT for me to not make the blog private, I want to emphasize that. I'm trying to be the bigger person.

Hope ya'll have had a blessed past couple weeks!
