Apparently I've fallen off of the face of the earth. It's been a busy two months for our little family. We have had a few bumps in the road and the hits just keep coming. I'm not going to go into detail but we're finally about to get a new home. We are so excited to be back under our own roof again that we can't see straight. The best part is we will be much closer to family. Keep your fingers crossed that we get the house!!

Let's see what else have we been up to:

1.) I'm still sick. I see improvement a little each day but I still have a ways to go. I still think a surgery is in my very near future, but we always knew that was a possibility. The goal has always been to get me healthy enough to undergo the surgery. I think we're finally on the right track.

2.) We celebrated the girls first and second birthday's. Our circus theme bash was a success, as was our small family party with my step-dad's side of the family. I love that my girls are so adored by our family and friends. I will post pictures at a later date.

3.) We lost our oldest Great Dane yesterday. Wagner is what started our Great Dane fetish and his passing is a tragedy for us. I know, so dramatic, but honestly, this dog meant a lot to us. Daniel is distraught with his grief and I can only hope that one day he will be ok. We will never own another dog like Wagner, he truly was one of a kind. Rest in peace buddy.

4.) We moved out of my Mom's place this past Sunday. It was time and we are currently living in two different locations. Daniel is with his Mom and Brother and I am with the girls with my Uncle Dan and Aunt Robin. You don't realize how much you love someone until you are parted. These past few days have reminded me how lucky I am to have my husband. While our marriage is far from perfect and while we both have our faults and could do better jobs at being husband and wife, my love for him is unending. I don't think he knows how much I appreciate him and all that he does for our family.

5.) Daniel got a promotion at work. He will now be a field technician for his company which means that there will be times we won't be seeing him during the week. I think his first trip involves being on a cruise in Florida. Lucky duck. I know he will be working, but it will still sort of be like a vacation. I don't know how I am going to take care of a one year old and two year old plus three dogs all by myself. Please say a quick prayer for me...lol.

6.) Addison is so close to being ready to start potty training. Today while I was fixing our lunch she came up missing. When I went to track her down I discovered her in the bathroom, diaper laying on the counter, while she was attempting to sit on the toilet. Nothing happened but I call that progress.

7.) Lastly, Cadence still isn't walking. Mommy is getting tired of lugging her around and I'll leave that at that.

Hopefully I will be able to post some pictures soon as well as a big birthday post. I hope everyone is well. We are enjoying sixty degree weather today and loving it. Come on spring!!!
