Snaggle Tooth Brinley!

Going.....

Going....

GONE!!!!!

Well I should say FINALLY GONE...since it took for-ev-er to come out, I am talking 2 months here people! And she has to be without a doubt, the biggest baby when it comes to pulling teeth. But, turns out this baby can pull teeth out alllll by herself. Yep, you read that correctly, she did it all by herself. Daddy was there for moral support, but she turned that sucker around in a twist, and POP, there it went, Finally. ;o)

*sorry about the sideways pictures, it wouldn't work right. darn technology*

New Signature!!!

Thanks Christi! I've hit the big time now!

IT'S A BARNYARD MOOSICAL!

Brinley starred in her first musical at school last night called a Barnyard Moosical! It was fantastic! She had a speaking part as a goat! A goumet goat at that! Here are some pics of the cutest goat on the planet..

She had this to say: "Yes, we're gourmet goats! We're not

like the rest, and pizza's the one food that we like the be-e-e-s-t! It was so stinkin' cute!

So Much Snow!

free dog to a good home!

I'm freezzzzzin'!!

whoa what is this stuff...

A couple of weeks ago, Greenville got some record breaking snow! It was indeed, snow much fun! We all headed out in the snow to build not one, but two snowmen, ahem, I mean snow women. The girls could not believe it, nor could I. It just kept snowing! Last I heard, we had a total of 12 inches, or a whole FOOT! Here are some pics of our great time in the snow.

I CAN'T HELP IT!

All right, you can officially call me crazy. I can't help it. I have been hit by baby fever, AGAIN. Why? I don't know. It has hit me like a ton of bricks. When I see babies out and about at the mall, or at Wal-Mart..I melt. Seriously. I do, and I can't help it to save a life. My husband thinks I am the craziest person to walk the planet. I mean, seriously, I can't blame him for thinking this. But I am surrounded by good friends around me that have buns in the oven and think, dang, why can't that be me?! I know, I know, I am completely blessed with 3 of the most beautiful, charming girls on the planet, and why in the world would I want to ruin a good thing. Well, I always wanted 4 kids, and now that Cara is 2, it is like a ton of bricks settling on my chest that I can't seem to push off. So, until then, or never until then, I will just drool over every baby that comes my way, and think what if I had another little one? HMMMM....am I the only woman in the world that feels this? Usually women know that complete feeling after 2 or 3..well I haven't gotten that feeling yet..so I am going to drool over Cara's newborn pics that I just got from our photographer, Brandy Fisher. Enjoy, or as I should say...Drool my friends, drool.

What a Wonderful Christmas!

ella-my mini-me

Christmas was such a fun time at the Nordin house! Cara actually didn't pull down the ornaments this year, the girls were super excited, and we got to see the Grinch in ice. Turned out to be a pretty neat holiday. Each year we tell the grandparents to not go overboard, and well, they did, and the girls are in toy heaven, not to mention, clothes galore. But, I do have to say that I thoroughly enjoy the nice alone time I get, due to the girls playing with all their new things!

The girls got to experience good ol' Saint Nick in Sulphur Springs, at Granny Cat's work, Alliance Bank. Brinley and Ella Grace were so ready to see the big guy, Cara, nope, not so much. She would wave from afar, but the moment she got in his lap, wow, I didn't know her voice could screeeech that high! The entire bank was blessed with such a joyful noise. I for one, was trying to take the dead blasted picture, but was having difficulties with the camera..go figure...got one good..err..bad, shot.

This time of year I am overcome with sheer joy as I look around and see how truly blessed we are. Jon Eric is the love of my life, and together we are raising 3 beautiful girls, and hope and pray we raise them to love and trust God. I sit back and drink my lukewarm cup of cocoa, and think, wow, I have struck gold. Thank you Lord for blessing us so! Happy Birthday Jesus!

Cara turns 2!

Say it ain't so, my baby just turned 2, and with flames. Seems like as soon as she grew one year older, BAM!, so did the divaness! She screams when she wants something, screams when she doesn't want something, screams when she is ticked at the world, which is more often all of a sudden! It is her way, or the highway!! BUT, she's my little diva, and I love her more and more through it all!

We celebrated her birthday, and the whole family joined in on the festivities. We just had a quaint little party at our house, and she enjoyed it, as did I. She got lots of clothes, toys, and had loads of fun. Couldn't ask for more. It is hard to believe that my surprise bundle is now 2. I remember being in shock, and wonder, as to how it would all unfold. Cara Ann is a pure delight and I thank God everyday for blessing us with that pleasant surprise. Wouldn't have it any other way.
