Update

So, the last few weeks have been pretty crazy around here. We spent a couple weeks working really hard to get into our new place and of course, just after we get in, Hurricane Gustav comes barrelling right at us! Having never been in a hurricane before, I was pretty nervous. But in the end, we didn't get hit as hard as we were afraid. We got a lot of rain and wind and lost power for a little while, but that was it! Now, just two weeks later, Ike has passed us and hopefully things will get back to normal.

Last night when I got home from work, Travis suggested that we go down to the pond by our house and go fishing. Just after we got down there, it started pouring! We were all soaked by the time we were finished. But, we did come home with 4 catfish!! Kaity even caught one and hers would have been the biggest if I hadn't caught mine just before leaving. We all had such a good time that we will probably be going fishing a few times a week from now on.

The girls are doing great! Kaitlyn is growing as fast as the weeds in my flower garden and so is her personality. She is very clear on the things she likes and dislikes. She is frequently caught singing; the alphabet, I'm a little tea pot, ring around the rosies, and the newest addition ~ A dream is a wish your heart makes (from Cinderella). She's working very hard on articulating and becoming better at telling us what's on her mind.

Abigail is my little cuddle bug. She is always wanting to sit on my lap or have me hold her or lay down on the couch with me. Lately, she won't go to bed without a book. Not just having us read one to her. She actually wants to HUG a book while she's going to sleep! I don't know about you, but that doesn't sound (or look) very comfortable to me! But that's what she's wanting, and when we let her have her book, she goes right to sleep. lol Right now, her favorite things are "noke" (that's how she says milk) and The Little Mermaid. I can't believe she will actually be 2 in just a few weeks!
