Today Presley woke up in a super crabby mood. No really...like full on melt downs over everything. I decided to just drop all over our intended plans for the morning, and run a bubble bath for the both of us. I got P undressed, leaving her clothes and diaper on the floor of the bathroom. When we got out, I chased her around with the blow dryer for a few seconds and turned to dry my own hair. Out of the corner of my eye I saw her pick up her diaper and round the corner into the living room. I followed behind to see what she was up to. I could tell she was on some sort of mission...she always gets this very serious look on her face.
She walked into our laundry room. I started to stop her because I hate when she goes in there. It's full of gross things like the litter box, the diaper genie, and dirty laundry. Before I could say anything, she lifted the handle on the diaper genie, put the diaper inside, closed the handle, and said "all done". I was super impressed, and did what I normally do. You know...the whole jumping up and down and cheering in a super annoying high pitched voice. I was so proud of her! She, seriously, amazes me everyday. Now, if I could just get her to change her own diapers...
*After typing this, I realized we have a diaper champ not the genie*

Happy 90th, Mamaw!
This is so late, but there was no way I was going to let this one slide. My grandmother turned 90 on April 4th! 90!!! The most incredible part is you would never know it. My grandmother has still got it going on:)
I feel so blessed to have Mamaw as my grandmother. She is the most loving, selfless, giving woman. We always joke that "Mamaw" can't be our grandmother name because there could never be another one like her. She truly is one of a kind. I could type about Mamaw until my fingers fell off, and It still wouldn't do her justice.
Here are some pics of her special day:
Happy 90th Birthday , Mamaw! We're really going to have to party hard for the big 100...

Getting Out of Trouble
We have developed a bunch of rules in our house as of late. One of them being "no standing/running on the couch". Presley gets a kick out of running across the couch and then almost hurling herself over the edge.
The other morning Presley climbed up onto the couch, and stood up. She immediately looked straight at Brandon and I; patiently waiting our reaction. I could see that defiant look come across her face, and I knew she was fixing to dart. Before I could say anything, Brandon started counting. "Oneeeeeeeee", he said (you always have to draw out the "one"). Then Presley chimed right in with "two". The girl didn't skip a beat.
Sadly, I was not even aware she knew that 2 came after 1?!? We were both so shocked at her counting that little miss managed to get herself out of trouble. Instead, we clapped and praised her like crazy. This probably totally confused her because I'm pretty sure she thought we were cheering on her crazy couch jumping antics.Oh well...
Crazy girl... She amazes me every day!

2 years ago today...
Yep! It's been two years since I got the best news of my life. It's funny to think that this news was delivered by pee...on a stick. I still remember every single thing about that little moment on my bathroom floor. During that moment, I had no idea what those 2 lines really meant. I know now, and it's nothing short of incredible.

Soup's On
Since I currently have strep, soup has been my meal of choice these past few days. Presley also enjoys soup. In fact, she likes it so much she can't seem to keep her tongue in her mouth (make sure to watch until the second bite).
Just in case anyone was wondering, french onion was Presley's soup preference for that day. However, she also enjoys chicken and stars, tomato basil, and broccoli cheese.

Landon Dean
My newest nephew is here!!! Landon decided to make his appearance on April 4th after 20 hours of labor. He has one strong amazing Mama. Now, I don't mean to brag...okay, I totally do, but isn't he adorable!?! While I'm being bragadocious, I would also like to add that I officially have the two cutest nephews on the face of the earth. Bragging finished.
I couldn't be happier for my sister & brother in law, Brittani and Heath. They waited a long time for their precious miracle. As you can see by his picture, he was certaintly worth the wait!
