Let's go for a walk

The other day my friend, Ashley, invited me to go for a walk. I packed Delilah in to the car (yes, I was going to drive to Ash's instead of walking because I didn't want to walk home after our walk heh) and headed over to Ash's. After getting all the kids in to their respective strollers off we headed. It was soo beautiful that day & since it was Landon's first time in the "big boy" part of the stroller Ashley took some pics. We made our way to our usual route (from walks taken when Shawn was just a little newborn babe) but also ventured elsewhere. Down we went to Packer Street where Ashley soon spied a cemetary... and where we decided to go awalking. Some may think it's morbid to take the babes through a cemetary but truly it's a place of serene peace. Plus there's no cars, no hoardes of people, and it's quiet. It's nice to see when people come & decorate their loved ones tombs... the dead still have visitors.

Today Auntie Ashley came over so I could feed Delilah before we went out to dinner & back to her house to work on our Valentine's Day scrapbooking project (that last part didn't happen, but dinner did & boy was it yummy!! Thanks again Ash for dinner!!). I got some pics of her holding Delilah and it's about time to get some at my house with her face showing! LoL Other pics I took I didn't have angled the best & so Ashley's face was hidden.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day... Delilah's first. She got two very lovely cards in the mail from her Grandma & PapPap Williams and from my parents. Today Shawn & Landon gave Delilah Valentine's gifts from them. She got her first dolly & a TY poodle- very cute! Shawn made her a very nice card (nice job Shawn!) and she also got a card from the whole Rawlings Family. We got her a Valentine's Day card & daddy doesn't know it but she got him one as well.

As usual there are pics below for you to check out...

Gosh I suck

I really was going to try to keep up with whole blogging thing but I've totally been sucking. I just have no ambition. Both of the girls are doing great. Delilah just finished preschool today. We had a rough start but it got better. And then she went back to the crying beforehand and giving John issues. She was very happy to learn today was her last day and promptly requested she go to a new preschool. Which she will be in September. Agap.eland! I am so excited for her to begin there. I think (hope) she'll like it a lot more and she'll learn lots of new things. I just hope we don't have the same issues with the new place as we did with the old place. Tatum is growing in leaps and bounds. Recently she's been trying to blow bubbles with the bubble toy grammy got her. It's so adorable as she dip the wand in the spill-proof container (gotta love those), pulls it out and attempts to blow bubbles. She actually did blow bubbles today but of course I missed it becau...

Almost a month since I last blogged- where does the time go? What to write about? I have no idea. Basically things are pretty boring. We've just been doing what John does while I work... going to Target for our weekly Target visit, going to the marina when it's nice, visiting John's parents. We've also visited Ash & the boys for some play dates. Other than that it's been low key which is nice since I only get three months with Tatum. Don't get me wrong I know I'm lucky to have the time I do with Tatum but I just wish I could have six months with her. My mom has since stopped coming during the weekends as I can lift Delilah again. It's not too bad actually- I was worried about it but I'm surviving. I've even been able to get them places by myself. Usually just to visit John at work or for our weekly Sunday visit to my parents. Last Saturday I did make a trip to this place called Wendt's Pork Palace (they have yummy wing dings) with Ashley ...
