My Girls

Here are a couple pics of my little girls who are growing SO fast and changing everyday right before my eyes.
The last bottle picture.... :( ....makes me sick just to type that. How can this be the last bottle??? Bathtime fun...Rylie's goofy face...
Sadie's goofy face....
Had a long, hard day...need a little rest. :) How cute is this?

My lovely Savannah...love her like she was my own. She kinda is. :)
Drinking from our straw cups. We went straight from bottles to straws. They never really got the hang of the sippy cup. I guess it's just another thing I won't have to break them from.

Santa's little elf....This is SOO gonna be under my tree for Christmas. :)
Santa's little elf NOT so happy with her cousins. This pictures does not show it, but Rylie and Savannah are fascinated with one another. They lick each other's fingers....hug, pat, and slobber on one another....it's pretty hysterical to watch. Me and Lis love it! :)
Look at those "running track" legs. This girl is going to be an athlete like her momma!! Keep the chuckles to yourself.
The girls LOVE to be thrown in the air by Daddy. If you can get a close-up on that face, it's totally worth it. :)
After hanging up our Christmas lights outside, we had a little bit of mud to clean up. Thankfully, Sadie used her tail to clean up most of it. :) Look at all the little footprints! When I was pregnant, I had a book that showed the size of the feet starting at 20 weeks and going to 40 weeks. It's hard for me to believe I get to see two sets of footprints in real life now. :) It's the greatest thing ever.
That face says more than I ever could.

Our new dresses from Stella Pourciau, who has FABULOUS taste might I add!!! She has a thug-style popped collar in this picture, but when I tame her down, she's quite the dainty little girl.

Rylie reading...she is SO my child. Sadie was standing behind Rylie and preparing to hit her. Sadie is SO Nathan's child.
Getting ready for our lunch date with the girls. I'm desperately trying to make them keep bows in their hair. By this picture, you can tell that I've only won half the battle.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and I have so much to be thankful for. My life could not be more wonderful, and I praise the Lord for it. It's not to say my life is perfect. No, it certainly has its share of sorrows. We have come against many trials in the past few weeks, but God's mercy knows no bounds. How is it that the Creator of the heavens can take the time to hear the pleas of a little insignificant girl in Pineville? How is it that He knows me to my very depths and still chooses to love me? Not only am I His creation, I am His child, His daughter. He delights in my salvation, and I find rest in His love. He is my strength and my portion forever. Storms will come, but I will praise Him, trusting that He is faithful and keeps all of His promises. He is my reason for this Thanksgiving and for all my Thanksgivings. Have a beautiful, Christ-filled day! :)

These pics made me laugh out loud! I am so jealous that Damon got to see y'all and not me! You have to come do the Christmas run in City Park...only 2 miles, we will be walking, and your girls have track legs!
