Road Trip - We Made It
Well we made it to OKC in one piece. I didn't get much sleep but I figured as much. We are all exhausted. And I need a shower. Oy. So here I am, torn between taking a shower and taking a nap. Oh the choices. Maybe I'll shower and then nap. We'll see. Well I better try and get McKaela down for a nap so that I can, in fact, shower and/or nap.
Ciao!

Road Trip - 2am
Well the trip so far has been pretty uneventful. It rained for the first few hours before we finally drove out of it. It is just us on the road right now. As we were going down the dark highway the headlights hit something in our lane suddenly...two orange cones. Random. There was no road work anywhere near.
Ok we had to stop and fill up the car...guess what...McKenna is awake now. Man oh man, this is going to be THE longest day.
Well I need to tend to McKaela, she is getting fussy, but before I do I will leave you with a picture that I took in Alabama (though I think it showed up at the top of the post...haha).
Ciao!

How 'bout them Gators?!
Oh my goodness, these Gators are going to give me an ulcer! They have won every game this season so far but my goodness it has not been smooth sailing or pretty. It almost seems as though they are still mourning Tebow and the other seniors who graduated. Well, nonetheless, they won and I have complete faith that they will come together and we'll see the Gators we all know and love.
Today was a pretty good day, if I might say so myself. We filled up the pool and played for a while and then came in and the girls napped and we went back out for a bit. It was nice. A little too cold for McKaela but we all had a good time nonetheless.
So we are going to the State Fair of Texas in a couple of weeks!!! I am so stoked!!! I absolutely cannot wait! All the years that I lived in Texas and I never made it to the fair...went to the Stock Show and Rodeo multiple years, sometimes multiple TIMES a year, but never made it to the fair. Go figure.
So Mark and I finished 'Lost'...O.M.G...so much happened and it was so overwhelming but so good. From what everyone was saying I expected to still be so lost (no pun intended) and disappointed but I actually felt closure. Sad. But closure.
If you want some good movies to watch, 'Prince of Persia' was good (well I didn't get to see most of it because I was putting the girls to bed but Mark said it was good), 'Letters to Juliet' was a good one as well. I really liked that movie. Then there is 'Marmaduke' and that was a cute movie too.
A movie you probably would not care to see is 'The Chosen One'...we are trying to watch it now but its not going too well. Not a very good movie and VERY slow. Oy!
Ok well I guess I will try and get into this movie again.

It's Game Day!!!
(well, it was.)
I had been waiting all year for this day...COLLEGE GAME DAY!! GO GATORS!! *whew* It is finally football season and I couldn't be happier!! Mark on the other hand...could care less. LOL Yes, that's right, in our house I am the football freak. haha For instance, today was the first Gator game of the season and Mark was playing his video game. On our only TV. WHAT?! Don't worry though, EVO came through and I was able to watch the game live! *smile* For those of you who might be wondering, EVO is my phone. *smile* Anyway, I decked the girls out in their Gator Gear and we had a blast! Gators won, by the way. I won't say it was a great played game but they won and that is all that matters now. haha
So things are going well, nothing too much to update on but it is a new month and although updating doesn't only have to be, and hopefully occurs more often than so, it is time to update. McKaela is 3 months old and growing up so fast. And she talks all of the time!! Well, "talks". She is quite the conversationalist.
McKenna is growing up so fast in every way! Not only will she be 2 in December but she is already potty training and super smart AND a "little mommy". A couple of weeks ago. I needed to go grocery shopping but was waiting on the girls to wake up from their nap. McKaela woke up first and about 5 minutes later McKenna woke up (it never fails..LOL) I had sat McKaela down on the couch so that I could go up and get McKenna and when I came back down I sat McKenna down on the opposite end of the couch and went to get dressed to go. Well, McKaela had started crying by this point and was not happy with me and the next thing that I hear from the other room is her cries get muffled. I rushed back into the living room and McKenna had climbed over to the other side of the couch and had picked McKaela up and had her in her arms and was rocking her back and forth (such as I do when I am not in my rocking chair). I was shocked and in awe and I just stood there for a moment before I thought "get the camera!!" So I did. I got some pictures, some video, and when I was sure that all was well I went back to finish getting dressed. Then it happened....it got completely silent...I walked back into the living room, curious, to find that since McKaela had still been crying McKenna had grabbed her paci and gave it to her and then proceeded to rock her and in turn had gotten McKaela to sleep. TO SLEEP! Yes, my 1 year old got my 3 month old to sleep all on her own. It was amazing and oh so sweet!
Well I suppose that I will leave you with some pictures. Enjoy!
