Don't Worry...

...I'm still alive! I'm a little ashamed that it's been so long since my last blog post. It was brought to my attention that my Grandmother pulls up my blog every morning while she drinks her coffee. She has been a little disappointed with my short hiatus from the blogging world! So this one's for YOU Grandma! I'm actually working on a monster post from our family weekend getaway to Gruene, Tx. So, until then, here's a little something to tide you over...Cutie with Pigtails! Does it get any cuter? I guess a couple pink bows would top it off :)

Hey Elly...

...do you have a secret?



I do, I do!


Are you ready for this?


That's right...a B*I*G sister!

Oh! Is that an ant?

That's right friends and family...Baby Roebuck will be here mid April! We are very excited and very eager to add on to this house!!! 1,200 sq ft just won't cut it anymore ;)

Big Girl!

Elly has officially mastered the spoon! She's been using a fork for quite some time now, but I've held off on the spoon due to my own selfish reasons...the MESS! I decided to give her the reigns the other day and she took to it like an old pro. She loves her cereal and eats every last bit!


B*I*G girl bite!


Sometimes the spoon gets a little sideways action :)


Oops! Don't worry mom...I've got this under control!


**These pics were taken on the same day as the post below. This is not the only shirt my girl wears :)

Panamanian Princess

As Kris was finishing up a little yard work the other day, Elly decided she needed to give the yard a once over...just to make sure her daddy didn't miss a spot. He pulled out the blower and she started to squeal! Kris would blow her hair back and she would laugh and tell him "mmmo, mmmo!" That would be 'more' for those of you who need a little help with the translation.

Get me, get me!!!!


Kris's step mom got Elly this super cute, and oh so colorful, hand stitched mola (it's a Panamanian thing...you wouldn't get it ;) ) t-shirt when she went to Panama this summer. I love it and am looking for a cute black tulle skirt to diva it up a bit!
