Sometimes Things Don't Work Out Like We Planned

Well I think I have informed most of you on our decision about moving or not moving really. So we are staying in Georgia which I am happy about, I was really dreading leaving my friends and family and of course my house which we have made many memories in. I am super grateful to the family members who loaned us the money to finish our bonus room and I can't wait to make use of it finally. To my parents I hope you understand that things just didn't go as we had hoped and that we love you and wish we could live closer, but we will come visit as much as possible and hope you will come visit us too. I thank everyone who supported our decisions and continue to, it is always comforting to know you are there for us. We enjoyed our long vacation here and being able to be here for my brothers wedding... I pray you and Heather have a great marriage. To my friends who live in California I am sad we won't be spending more time together but I have had a great time with you these last few weeks and hope to visit with you all again. We truly have the best family and friends in the world! In about a week and a half we will be back in Georgia and I can't wait to see our niece who will be coming soon... Abigail you are a gift from God to your parents and the rest of us. Hugs and Kisses Carrie
Theres no place like home!

Just a Little News

As most of you know Caleb if probably one of the pickiest kids in the world. He loves almost anything sweet but when it come to the healthy good stuff its like a world war trying to get him to eat it. some of his favorite foods are cheese, mac and cheese, yogurt, cereal... do you see the trend? Anything made with milk he loves but I am happy to say that since we have been in California he has a new interest... PEACHES! My parents have three peach trees and I guess he likes the idea of picking it himself and getting to eat what he found. I kid you not yesterday he ate SIX peaches within a couple hours he just runs back and forth getting a peach from the kitchen (we pick a basket full every couple days and bring in the house) goes to the living room eats his peach puts the pit in the trash and gets another. He seems to have a better appetite and will snack on other things as well but peaches are his choice. I say all this to tell you that Caleb has finally gained some weight for a year he has been 25 pounds. I weighed him today and he is 28 pounds yay!

Leland is sill and hopefully always will be a great eater. He eats whatever I give him and always wants more. I weighed him today too and he has taken over the 25 pound slot but I'm sure he won't be there for long... my little michelin baby.
