april and may

So I have been out of the blogging loop for some time now and the quesion is always the same...do I take the time to catch everyone up on "things" OR do I just move on??? I would (in a way) love to just move on, but then I think of all the milestones that have happened in our lives since little Elizabeth (or Lizzy Sue or Lizard Beth) was born back in April (my last post) and want all of you to be able to share those moments with us.

Like Caroline's very FIRST Andalusia Ballet Easter Egg Hunt and Bonnet Contest...And our usual Easter festivities were postponed a week since we were all in Marietta seeing the Orton's addition on April 4th...we celebrated a risen Saviour AND a new niece (born April 3) this year:)Caroline also held a baby chick for her first time this year at the Covington County Young Farmer's petting zoo... Then came May, when we welcomed ANOTHER beautiful niece into our family...Hannah Catherine Fleming.

BUT...she gave us a little scare and had to be transferred to the NICU at Baptist South in Montgomery.

And got to come home the day before Mother's Day to meet her newest cousin for the first time...

and I got to celebrate my fourth Mother's Day with all of them, plus the one that makes it such a special day for me... Caroline also completed her first year of dance in May and was awarded a certificate of completion from Mrs. Callie... Then came the end of May, Memorial Day, and the move into our new house:)
