Big Changes!!!!

I know it has been a long time since I updated but we have been so busy the last couple of months! First of all, we have moved! Just before Christian and I got married ( 6 1/2 years ago) we bought our first house and we finally decided that it was time for something a little bigger. It was sad but of course exciting to make the change.

Old House

New House







Now that we are in the new house, we have been working on the baby's room which meant Anna Clayton had to give up her crib. She is now successfully sleeping in her new BIG GIRL BED. she loves it and thank goodness for that! I was terrified for this change to happen. She has always been a great sleeper and I have heard horror stories from other parents! I guess we were lucky!!!

And then on top of moving and getting her big bed, we are also potty training!!!! Oh my gosh- I have never been back and forth to the bathroom so many times in my life. She wants to go every five minutes with the hope that eventually she will actually go to the potty so she can have a "little treat"! It is really so much fun to watch her get so excited and it is so sad to see how she is really a Big Girl now!!! Wow, time passes by so fast!!!!

Speaking of time passing by, it is hard to believe that in 3 weeks we will have another little baby!!!

Father Daughter Valentine Dance

The weekend before Valentine's Day, Christian and Anna Clayton went to the Father Daughter Dance. She was so excited- Mimi made her dress and she got to wear big girl dressy shoes and all that fun stuff. Of course the day of the dance was a completely different story- she didn't want to get dressed and then she would not let me take pictures without crying! So these are the best pictures I got.

Our Little Princess!!

Anna Clayton loves playing dress up in her fairy princess dresses that Mimi gave her for Christmas. Here are a few pictures! I can't believe how old she looks in these pictures! They definitely grow up too fast!!!!!

Christmas!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year! We did! We were in MS for a week so we had a great visit in Starkville, got to go to Tupelo and see all Christian's family and the guys got to hunt for 3 days! It was great! Here are few pics from all the different Christmas get togethers!

Christmas Day in Tupelo! It was Freezing cold but she had to be outside with all her older cousins. She stole Ally's new tricycle and took it for a ride and then she thought she would try on Julia Hope's helmet! She loved watching all the older kids!

Santa brought Anna Clayton everything she would ever need for Itty Bitty Baby or baby Kate as we call her! This is baby Kate in her new bouncy seat! We need another bedroom just for baby Kate! Ha!

Baby Kate and Ava hanging out! Anna Clayton wore herself out trying to keep up with Amber taking care of Ava. It was so funny!

Anna Clayton and her cousins Bonner and Browning Hewlett

Newest Hewlett!!!

It has been a while since I posted anything- i apoplogize! We have had a few computer issues! Anyway, I want to introduce the newest member of the Hewlett Family. Her name is Ava Lucille and she was born Nov. 7! She is too cute and so sweet! Over Christmas we are all in Starkville so we spent lots of time with her! Anna Clayton loved having her new cousin around! That made me feel better about our new addition on the way!

New York City!!!!

Wow, New York is awesome! In October I went on a girls trip to New York with my Mom, Amy and her mom. It was GREAT! We had the best time. Everything is so amazing and exciting to see. I have never in my life seen so many people in such a small area! I loved it! I am already wanting to go back. This time we got all the site seeing taken care of so next time- I am ready to SHOP!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

We had the best time with Anna Clayton on Halloween! She loved being Minnie Mouse and she really loved getting candy! She was such a big girl! The little boy in the pictures is her friend Ford Scott.
