Happy Birthday Daddy!!


Today is Ran's 32nd birthday! He is such an old man =) The girls have been singing Happy Birthday to You all morning. It is just precious. We made him a birthday breakfast with eggs and fresh blueberry pancakes. The girls and I gave him a new pair of sunglasses.(since I sat on his other pair a few weeks ago--opps!) They each gave him a card they had picked out by themselves. Emma--Dora, Abigial--Elmo. Last night we had dinner at Donna's and tonight we have dinner at my mom's. Lots of eating going on the next couple of days! Since everyone else is fillin him up with cakes and puddings, I told him I would wait and make him some homemade fried pies this weekend. He loves having anniversary and birthday back to back. I remember when we were picking the date for the wedding, he actually wanted to get married on his birthday--but it wasn't on the weekend. So he wanted the closest date to it??? I always thought that was weird. IF it were me, I would want my presents spread out throughout the year.
Abigail decided to give daddy her own little present today. She pooped in the potty for the first time!!!! We were so excited...hopefully she will repeat her performance tomorrow. We danced and cheered and got stickers and skittles...you name it we did it...She was smiling from ear to ear. If we can get this down, we will have jumped our last hurdle in the potty training experience. Everything else is down. They have even started telling us when they need to go, and we aren't having to take them every 30 mins(which is SOOOOO much better).

They are both really enjoying the blog. The love to sit and look at all their pictures. We are still playing in the playhouse just about everyday. I am really kinda surprised at how much Emma loves to play with the tools. I am trying to find them more plastic tools to go with it but Wal-Mart didn't have any =(

Please be in prayer for me. The past few days I haven't been well(nothing of major concern)just pray that God will heal this afliction(whatever it is) and that it will not return. Just frustrating b/c I don't feel like playing with my angel babies and Ran has really been having to help during his work hours. Pray for him too!

I decided to start this blog after I ran across another mom's blog and was inspired by her. I want to share my faith and family with anyone willing to listen. Being a mom is the most awesome gift I have ever received. These 2 girls have opened my heart to a love I never knew existed. Thank you God! You are truly amazing and everyday I marvel at your wonderous works through the eyes of my children. May this blog bring glory and honor to your name, and someday, may it provide my girls with a glimpse into the true heart of their mom.
