Update on life....

It has been so long since I posted and I decided that I need to update things.

We now live in South Florida. It is beautiful here and we love it. We are close to a good church and several close friends.

This is right outside my front porch.....


David is now out of the Marines and is currently a security officer at a local hospital. He enjoys it and always has a funny story to share. Although the stories almost make me sad because it really shows how lost our world is without Christ.



I am currently a full time stay at home mom to Addison. I enjoy it but there are days where I just want to hire a babysitter so I can just sit in peace. Lol. I'm also pregnant with a little boy that is due this fall.
Addison and I with my wonderful Grandmother


Addison is a rowdy two year old with a love of life. She loves to laugh, make others laugh, sing, dance (although I"m so sure you could call bouncing up and down dancing;-)), play with her daddy, and play outside. She loves her daddy but she is a true mommy's girl. We just got back from a two week trip to my parents. She fell in love with her Popa and MomMom (suppose to be Grandmomma but Addi can't say all that yet.). She is learning new things everyday. Her newest thing is praying. We always pray before bed...and she will not pray unless your hands are folded. Her little prayer is always "Dear Jesus, Amen." It makes me smile though because I know as she gets older she will fill in those blanks with alot more words. And for now I'm sure God is just thankful that she is praying to Him. I can't seem to keep up with her anymore. She is such a stubborn girl but yet can be so tender at times. I can't wait to see what God has planned for her.

This is us with David's family. They got to come down for Addison's two year old birthday party.
His mom, Leah, his sister Carrie and her husband Josh, his sister Ashley and her husband Andrew, us, and then Dad, Dave.

Playing on the inlet with Daddy...

She refuses to wear a church hat but will wear Daddy's everywhere...

She is two going on sixteen




Little Man is doing great. He is so much more calm than Addison ever was. I'm afraid that means he is just saving up his energy till he is born. Haha! I can't wait to be the mom of a little boy. After seven nephews, I think,....I think...I know what I'm in for. Lol.

Little Man at 18 1/2 weeks

Other than that, our life is pretty normal and basic. Ha! I hope that I"ve caught you up some on our little family!!!

My sisters and I with our wonderful parents
