Catching my breath...
But I didn't realize just how much slack my parents picked up for me! My Mom did most of the cooking, cleaning, etc. and my evenings consisted of grading papers, reading, catching up on TV shows, etc. I was able to do pretty much whatever I wanted! I was spoiled I tell you...SPOILED!
Over Valentines weekend we hosted a family get together with some of Brad's family! As you can see we had a lot of fun!

Shelby chose the color red!
Anna Claire LOVES anything girly!
Saylor and A.C. drying their nails!
Anna Claire got fifths disease a couple of weeks ago and missed her last Children's Day Out "Drive in Movie Day". Poor girl! We made the best of it and she ate her breakfast, lunch and snack in her "car". She said it made her feel better!
Also, in BIG news at our house...ANNA CLAIRE'S HAIR IS LONG ENOUGH FOR PIG TAILS!!! She couldn't be happier. :)
We also have recently taken a trip to the farm to see my Pappy, played in the snow, and I helped host a baby shower for my sister-in-law and friend.

My Heart is full...
My heart is full. They say emotion overcomes you when you hold your own children for the first time, but I think the same goes for your sister's children. I also felt this way when I held these children for the first time. When I held my nephew I just wanted to cry because he was absolutely perfect.
Coleman James Burton was born on January 5, 2010 and he is perfect. Lindsey did so well! I am so glad my Mom was able to be there with her and her husband Matt is such a great support. I enjoyed being at there house for 3 days and getting to remember what it's like to take care of a newborn again! Whew! I think I will wait a while before I begin that adventure again. :) I never imagined I would be this far away from Lindsey when we grew up. It has been hard. We don't talk about it much because it is a downer to talk about. I am so proud of Matt and his fantastic job at Chick-fil-a, but I miss her. I know if they were here I would get to see them so much more. Even so, we plan to visit a lot and now have Skype so that we can keep in touch even better! I love you sweet Burton family!
SO this is my second blog to try and I hope to be even better this time around! We are doing well adjusting to our new life as the Duff family. Married life with Brad is just wonderful. He is truly my best friend! I look forward to updating you with all of our new adventures. But don't worry JUST US GIRLS will stay up for my memory's sake in case you want to revisit sweet Anna Claire's antics!
