Furniture

Brett and I finally got "grown-up" furniture. We had hand me downs from the time we got married.


A few years ago we got the couch of my dreams...it turned out to be a nightmare. We got a couch from Norwalk, I also wanted one from there, but they are very pricey. Brett finally gave in, I now wish I would have listened to his advice! This $2,500 couch is worthless. We had to get the cushions replaced over 5 times and they were never fixed. Each time I asked for a new couch because I thought the problem was really with the frame. They would not even think about that idea even though the couch comes with a lifetime warranty and the problem was first reported within a few weeks! Finally, I just gave up! So word of advice - do NOT buy NORWALK!!!!!




Our NEW couch!


Daddy's chair



Mommy's Chair We got out new furniture from MisKelly's.

There are NO words!


She was helping with the laundry.

Playtime


Grace and Reagan had to make sure Greer knew how her new toy worked!


I believe she loved it.

Sleep Sack


This is the best thing ever! A MUST-HAVE for all new babies!

The Weekend

This weekend was full of nothing but FAMILY TIME! There is nothing better than seeing your family having a blast just being with each other and making great memories!


Greer found a new favorite place to nap!



Grace and Reagan decided they needed to take their baby shopping! They are very good mommy's in training.



Daddy and Grace had some one-on-one reading time. Reagan was napping. Grace has deemed herself big enough to NOT need a nap!



Daddy is still young enough to need a nap! Reagan loved napping with daddy in the new chair. The flash woke her up.

Our "Normal"

Wow, how things have changed now that we have three girls!

Troubling Threes - Check


Terrible Twos- Check



Brand New - Check



But I would not change anything for the world ---well I could do without as many tantrums! lol


For real, I could not imagine my life or family a bit different. I love each of the girls personalities and the fact that I have the most amazing husband in the world.


To say it in the most simple terms - God has truly blessed Me!

Madison Greer

Priceless

Prefect Pair


Roadtrip

Brett had some business to do in Jackson, TN a few weeks ago and I was nowhere near ready to spend the weekend alone with all three girls. We decided to make our first road trip. Of course I look for any chance to get back home.


Once in Memphis, we had visitors coming. I loved it! I miss being so close to my family. I have always been close to my cousins and I would love for my girls to be that close with theirs, but it is hard to do being 3 hours away.


Rachel was a huge hit with the older girls they loved her visit. It did not hurt that she brought her new dog. We all know that is the way to win Reagan over. Reagan is an animal lover! Soon Morgan, Ben, and Reagan's Godmother (also known as Aunt Teresa) came over. Of course Aunt Teresa had to egg on the older two girls. She was telling them that they could change diapers, hold Greer, or whatever else they wanted. I can only imagine what she will do to Morgan's children!


After all the visits it was time for the girls to play. One of the things they love most about my parents house is playing outside! It never fails, if there is nice weather, the only way to get the girls in is with tears! I think they would live outside, with Granddaddy of course!

As soon as Brett and my Dad left for Jackson my mom had one mission...she wanted a picture of all five of her grandchildren. Emory, my SIL, called and we set up a play date. Mom was beside herself.. She was like a kid in the candy store! ha ha

My mom called my grandparents to let them know we would be in town and I would love for them to visit and see their last Great-grandchild. I was so excited for them to meet. I can truly say that I am still the biggest Granddaddy's girl at the age of 28. And I look in amazement at my Mimi and try my hardest to soak in her wisdom as a mother, sister, teacher, wife, and child of God.
We had dinner with Brett's parents. Poor Kiki was not able to eat until after everyone else had eaten. The girls ate pretty fast and then demanded that Kiki play with them. She could not say no so off they went. The girls had a blast, of course they always do with Grandy and Kiki. Thanks to Grandy the girls dinner was mainly m&m's and smarty's! I still have great memories of my "dinners" when I was at my grandparent's house and let me just say it was not much different! (Sorry no pictures)
