A Princess Cowgirl


Ben has been in San Antonio for work all week, and returned just in time to celebrate Nettie's birthday. In th mean time, Nettie stopped throwing up later in the afternoon in time for Daddy to help her celebrate! When he got back he had brought her a little bit of Texas. This may be her new favorite crown!

Nettie turns 4

It is hard to believe that 4 years ago tonight our beautiful little girl joined our family and changed us forever. The poor little thing has spent the day before her birthday throwing up, but trying to convince me that she is going to feel better in time for tomorrow and I believe her!
Nettie has gotten to be such a big girl, it is truly amazing. Ben and I recently returned from a 2 week vacation in Italy and we both agreed that of the kids Nettie had changed the most over the time we were gone. She is enjoying school, learning new things everyday. She has transitioned to her new classroom with Ms. Ruth rather well. She and John are starting to play together more and LOVE to be around each other. This would be a different experience for me as Paul and I played together sometime, but we were nowhere near as close as they already are. Nettie is patient with John most of the time - unless he has her Cinderella brush.
We are looking forward to a weekend of celebrations for Nettie's birthday and looking forward to the birth of Lily Grace sometime in the next few weeks. Hope everyone is doing well!

I will post pictures soon
