Ok... Olivia.... This way.... Say Cheese.. PLEASE!!

I think the title says it all!! I was trying to get pictures for our Christmas cards! I am the worlds worst about not having professional pictures done! I am not sure why? I take a ton at home, I just do not make appointments to go have Olivia's picture done professionally! (Maybe because I hate to have my picture made) I'm not sure. I do have big plans to have them done though. I actually tried to make an appointment with someone, but she was booked until next year!! I will have them done eventually and hopefully they will turn out good so I will not feel so bad~ he he~ Enjoy these silly pics of Olivia. She is a hoot! She thought it was hilarious that I was begging for her cooperation!














By the way, sorry about all the blog changes lately. I was never really satisfied with the HO HO HO page, so I went looking for another Christmas one and found this one with the ladybugs which works perfect. It is red for Christmas, it has ladybugs (which is a BIG good luck symbol in China), and it's almost New Years. So, ladybugs it is!!! (Until after New Years :-).

hello!
we were doing the exact same thing here this weekend. having our picture made. we were lucky enough to talk our neighbor into the truly exhausting task of taking all 5 us for hopefully what will be our christmas card photo. so much work to get everyone smiling, dressed, wiping spit-up, etc. ha, ha. but so glad we did it finally!!!
"Chattanooga Blogsphere". i noticed you use feedjit as well, and the "Chattanooga Blogsphere" popped up one day, and i've been looking around at local blogs. (or a few miles away). that's how i found yours. i have friends that have blogs in other states, etc., but do not know anyone close by. to be honest, i was hoping to find local blogging friends, mommys, to keep up with local "family" friendly events, etc... sometimes i feel out of the loop locally, because all my friends are out of state.
how fun to take your little olivia to see elmo! my graham would be green with envy!
have a great week.
thanks for stopping by & for your sweet comments.

Slowdown....

I just want to tell everyone now, my posts may start slowing down drastically when school starts back. I start on the 15th (next Thursday) and I do have some rather difficult classes this time. Also, I will be studying for the hesi test that I have to take if February, so my blog life will be taking a back seat for a while... I am not going to quit blogging though. I do have plans for a couple of posts in the near future, I just can't keep up like I am used to when classes start. I just wanted everyone to know why I am suddenly not leaving comments on your blog or not updating as frequently...Please keep me in your prayers as I am studying for this hesi test. This test will determine whether I get into the nursing program or not and I have A LOT of competition.... Just want you all to know what's going on with me when my blog is not being updated that much.... Love ya friends.......

Please keep our "Little Livie" in your prayers.....

Today we will be leaving at 5:00 a.m. to head to Knoxville for a round of tests.. Olivia has to have surgery on May 12th for a branchial cleft anomaly on her chest and just above her ear. I am dreading it... I am trying to act like it is no big deal to appear strong for her, but I am scared to death!!! Today we have to go and have a fistulagram and a renal ultrasound done... The fistulagram involves shooting dye through the little holes (sinus cavities that didn't fully develop) to see where they go so the surgeons know all details before the actual surgery begins.... The renal ultrasound is to check her kidney function because sometimes when kids have these anomalies, kidney problems are also involved!! Let's pray we don't have that problem... Like I said, I am scared to death!! But, the kidney ultrasound will relieve my worries of the China Milk scandal where a bunch of kids adopted from China have been found to have kidney issues from tampered milk... (If you don't k...

"Pray to Jesus"....

Image
So the past few weeks, Jason and I have decided to try to get in the habit of saying a prayer before we all eat dinner at night. I'll admit, this is one habit Jason and I never did that we should have already been doing. Anyway, at night I will say "Oh, we need to say our prayers." Olivia just loves it. Everyone at the table ends up saying a prayer (at Olivia's request). But I just had to post, every one of her prayers start with "Pray to Jesus".. EVERY ONE! And if we forget to say them, (yes, we forget) she says "We need to pray to Jesus!" It is the sweetest thing ever! She always makes us close our eyes and cross our fingers together. So tonight, I'll admit, I peeked to see what kind of face she was making during these prayers, and it was the cutest thing ever... So, I got up and got the camera ~ and then got in trouble!! Hehe.... :-) Our baby is growing up!!! AMEN!!!!!!!!
