On the Move Again

Wow, I know I have not posted in a while. I've gotten so far behind, it would take me forever to catch up and our camera has been dead for I don't know how long, so everytime we go to take a new picture of Halle, guess what? Anyway, we finally put our house up for sale and are praying that God will make things work. This is our current house

which for those of you who know us and know Demopolis, knows it's a busy street. We love our house, but desperately miss our garage and a neighborhood. And hopefully this will be our next home.

Anyway, I will keep you all updated on what's going on. As for now, please continue to pray for my best friends little girl Anna Coleman. She has her good days and bad days. Hopefully, they will be able to come home for a little while before too long. Also, please pray for Jennifer's strength and her amazing faith to continue. She amazes me everyday. Jennifer is so strong! Hope you all have a great 4th weekend!

Please Pray for this Sweet Precious Angel

Happy Birthday Baby Girl!!!!

Wow, I don't know where to even start. I can't believe you are going to be two years old. How the time flys. You have grown so much and you are so smart. You walk around the house all the time singing and laughing. I don't know what your dad and I would do without you. You are the most fun loving sociable little person. You are shy to a point, but love to speak to everyone you see regardless of whether you know them or not. You love to "hep" aka help momma or dadda whether it be watering pants aka plants or taking out the trash to sweeping the floor. Your daddy and I love to laugh at all the little things you say and do. I hope that you continue to love to learn just as you do now. You love your sissy and love to call she and Rhae on the phone and talk. I can't wait for the many many years that lie ahead of us as well. I am so proud to be your mommy. I love you baby girl!!

Easter 2010

I hope you all had a great Easter. Our family did. Nothing special, but we got to spend it with some of our favorite people. On Saturday our Church Easter Egg hunt was cancelled due to the weather so Darrin and I decided to hide eggs for Halle in the house and she loved it. Everytime she would find an egg she would scream, "I find egg, momma". It was adorable and she was really good at finding them too. Darrin and I took turns hiding them and them we were tired. Halle and I packed up along with Dana and Rhae and went to Meridan so that I could do last minute shopping for an Easter dress. I kept thinking I could wear a dress that I had already bought, but not worn. That didn't work so off we went and boy was it busy. I found a new dress and shoes to match. I was a happy camper. On Sunday, we slept in and went to the 11am service instead of the early service that we usually go to. We woke up to find that the Easter Bunny had been here. Halle had m&m's for breakfast, we both got baths and got ready and off to Sunday School and Church we went. Following Church we had a great lunch with the Clem's, Hynniman's, Kelley's and Cameron's. After lunch we headed back to the Cameron's for an Easter egg hunt. We finished out afternoon with a golf cart ride at the Country Club. I would say that we had a great fun filled day.

I wish this picture was bigger because it is my favorite!!

Baby's Got a New Pair of Shoes

My sister had originally gotten Halle the new rainbow sandals with a strap on the back, but I thought they looked to much like boy sandals so today since Halle was at home sick we ran (literally) to Linden to Ziggy Zelda's to swap them out with the matching pair of Tevas like Rhaes. I thought they were too cute with the crabs on them. Halle loves them had hasn't taken them off since we got home. I was going to give them to her for Easter, but I couldn't wait until then.

A little late, but not to much

So, I know that Easter is next weekend and this is a Valentine picture, but it could be worst, right? These are the three stooges that are going to give us trouble in years to come. We get so tickled at them now because Halle and Lily which is on the right of Halle fight like women. They are too funny. Just wanted to share their Valentine picture of them in their shirts that say "I love my BFF".

Random Catch Up Photos

Halle and the phone. She has an obsession with a phone.

The girl loves her bracelets too.

Very cool little girl

We are sick again......

I am proud to say that Halle has not been sick enough to stay at home in a while and I am so thankful for that. We had such a wonderful weekend playing outside and planting flowers then last night she started running fever. I took it three different times and it was 100.2, 100.5 and 100.8. I gave her Motrin hoping and praying it was nothing and would be gone this morning, but she woke up this morning with fever not as high, but still fever. I am sitting here with her in the bed now and praying this does not turn into the stomach virus. As we sit here I am hearing her stomach make some really funny noisy. Just please say a prayer for her when you read this. Thanks

My New Car

It's not a great picture, but I love my new car. It's a 2010 Honda Pilot and I am in serious love. For anyone looking to purchase a new SUV and are not sure, you should check this one out. It drives like I imagine a cloud would. They are bigger than the old ones were. Very nice and roomy with TONS of storage space.

Oops

Well I thought I was downloading a different video for my mom, but instead I downloaded the wrong one. Sorry mom, will try again.

Halle is Counting!!!!

Halle is counting now!! She has actually been doing it for a couple of weeks, but only continues to get better at it. We were just able to get her on video tonight and wanted to share it with all of our friends and family. Listen to that redneck draw at the end though!!!! What is that?

Happy Birthday Too Me......

I just thought I would share with everyone our girls trip to Belmont last Saturday night for my birthday. We had all been talking about going to stay in the cabins at Mimosa Ridge for a while. It is wonderful over there and so close to home. We took lots of food and good drinks too. We had the best time singing karaoke and just laughing together. Thanks girls for such a wonderful weekend.

Snow Day 2010

You can see where we had to drag out feet through the snow to make snowballs.

Halle and Nana

All bundle up and headed outside

This was the first thing that Halle did when we got home that day.

I didn't even have my coat off yet before she was staring outside.

Back to the doctor we went!!!!!

Okay, so I have about decided to let my sister start keeping Halle instead of letting her go to daycare!!!!!!!!!!!! I awoke this morning to Halle in her bed barking like a seal!! I thought oh she will be okay. Well I went on to get ready to go to work and when I went to wake her up I could literally hear every breath she took. I called my step-mom to see if she thought the strep could be part of it, but she mentioned bronchitis and I freaked out. So, I called Darrin and he told me to go ahead and take her to the doctor in Tuscaloosa. So, we left the house about 7:20 this morning and signed in at the doctor at 8:30 with 10 other walk-ins ahead of us. Well we finally got called back to a room at 10:00. We got to see the doctor about 10:30. I was not very happy and Halle was getting very antsy. So, she now has the Croup. She could not go back to daycare today and they want her to stay out tomorrow. They say that croup is usually a three day illness and on the second day, which would be tomorrow that they usually run fever. So, here we are again at home. I finally accrued 1 sick day at work yesterday and had to use it today!!! That really sucks. Hopefully I will get them built back up soon. Please keep us in your prayers that Halle will get well soon.

Happy Birthday John Huston

This past Saturday we all went to Greensboro for John Huston's first birthday. They had it so cute with a dog theme. They had cookies that looked just like dog biscuits, cereal that looked like dog food and some yummy puppy chow( just the name of it), but it's made with chex cereal, chocolate, peanut butter and confectioner sugar. Yum!!! Oh and don't forget about the yummy cake and ice cream that I broke my diet for. I really hate that I forgot my camera at home. So I have no pictures to share. Happy Birthday John Huston. We had a ball!

I am trying to catch up.....

There has not been much new going on with the Hynniman family lately other than sickness. Two weeks ago Halle came home on a Thursday running fever. The next morning Darrin took her to our local doctor in town and she tested positive for the flu and negative for strep, but they treated her anyway for strep since it has been going through her daycare like crazy. So, we were treating her with antibiotics and tamiflu for about a week. She stayed in and we were all going stir crazy, but with the weather being as cold as it has we decided she better stay in. She finally got to go back to daycare last Tuesday. We are all so excited that she is feeling better.

We Have A Priss Pott on our Hands

Isn't she cute with her attire?

Like Father Like Daughter...

I couldn't help but share these pictures with you. Halle is just starting to copy a lot of what you do and say. As you can see, she was trying to copy her dadda by putting her hands in her pockets which she didn't have. She is really too funny.
