Really...everyone blogs

I was able to attend a mom conference a few weekends ago and every woman there blogs.   I mean these are awesome women of faith, who have awesome kids and what do they all do...BLOG!  Honestly, I do not know what they all write about, but it is all good stuff. It is stuff people want to read and stuff people are encouraged by.  It is crazy to me.  I just thought blogs were for posting pictures and talking about yourself.  How little I know.  These people also blog EVERYDAY!  I do not know how they do it.  I can't even blog once a week.  

Opa - He has become our favorite person.  Opa told Abigail that whenever we pass a Cowboy Church she has to say "Jesus Loves Cowgirls!!  And she not only say it every time she screams it!

Yes, we ride our big girl bike in our house.  

No really mom, I want to hold her.  Wait, I am done!!

Valentine's Day 2013

Last year on Valentine's day Abigail, Billy and I ate at Chick-fil-A and then went over to Buy Buy Baby and registered for our baby that was due in May.  This year I have no plans.  I don't even know what to make for dinner.  Our new norm at our house is no nap for Abigail and bed for Abigail and Alden at 6:30 and asleep by 7.

9 months old!!

Strong-Willed Child!  If we make it to 4 I will be throwing a party for ME! 

This is a picture of Melanie and I with Abigail when she was about 4 weeks old.  On Tuesday, Melanie had a precious baby girl!!!  I can not wait to take this picture with her again, but this time with Melanie holding baby Emery!!

Friends and children are a gift from God!!

Take 3

I have been very interested in others "blogs" lately.  Other moms have time to post and looking at this post from last year makes me want to start again.  So I posted twice since I said I was going to start blogging and every wednesday at 3:05pm I get a calendar reminder to post on the blog.  Some people do post everyday.  Just something small or maybe it is long.  I don't know how they do it.  They are moms of kids that make the time and some of them are even blogging and get paid for it.  Some moms seem to have it "all together!"  Not true I know, but on the computer they look perfect.

Christmas day 2011 - what a blessing!!

I have put on my calendar an entry to update the blog once a week. We will see if I can keep up a weekly blog. Those amazing mom's out there that blog each day are way better than me!

This past weekend we went to Mississippi for a wedding. It was the LONGEST drive, but Billy reminded me that if we want to have 3 or 4 kids then we will be driving everywhere - which includes Disney World. I am ready, just not pregnant. Anyway, we stated at an old plantation house which was way cool and Abigail loved walking on all the trails!

And the biggest news of the week is that Abigail is going to the potty in the big girl potty!! What a big day at the Parks' home!

Christmas 2011

Abigail was so excited for Santa to bring her a Barney. However, Billy missed the whole event when she woke up (too early)! She was crying when she woke up, but then saw her Barney and all was better! Now that Christmas is down, Abigail is so sad that Santa has returned to the North Pool. Christmas was a lot of fun!! It is sad when it is over.

we are pregnant again - yay!! baby parks due sometime early may 2012

Abigail is almost two. Where does the time go?? She is starting to talk more and I often need to remind her to use her inside voice! Who does that sound like?? Me?? Poor baby she has her mom's loud voice! Watch out ear drums here comes double.
