Chico Beach+ Hillary+ Family=FUN

Savannah and I traveled up to VA this past weekend so that she could meet Miss Hillary and visit with family. She absolutely fell in love with Baby Hillary and even helped to hold her and feed her. She "read" her a book and has been talking about what she will read her next time...I think they will be best cousins and friends! :)
We also visited "Chico" beach and she was quite smitten with her Uncle Chico this wkend, too. The weather was awesome and she got to actually play on the beach. I know she will adjust to moving up there just fine. She also go to meet Uncle Bobby and Raylene's new little one, Sophia. Babies are just precious! Can't believe mine is THREE!!!

Other "news" in SJ's world...
*Dora is still a BIG hit and Night Night Dora tags along everywhere
*She has taken to getting back in her crib to sleep (TG since she snores!) and we have told her she will get a big girl bed when we move! Long overdue, but the crib works!
*She uses these words and phrases quite often:
~I need to take some privacy
~I have something very important to tell you
~Guys, guys,....
~Usually...
~This past week she talked about NYC and how lots of people live there! (Must
have heard this from Dora!)

Lotsa LOVE!!!

YUM!

Ok, I cannot believe I have not blogged since the big BIRTHDAY! Yep, it's official-we now have a little girl...no more Baby SJ. Ok, who am I kidding? She left the baby stage AWHILE ago! She had an awesome party at Monkey Joe's with almost everyone near and dear to her sans Aunt Lisa, Uncle Dave and Aunt D, who were awaiting Hillary and Uncle Chico and Aunt Susan(Uncle Chico was injured.) Even Granddaddy made it up :)

Baby Hillary made her longawaited entrance on April 4. I went up to see her but SJ has not met her new cousins...that's right, we have two new babies in the fam because Aunt Raylene and Uncle Bobby had Baby Sophia on March 17. It's going to be awesome once we get up there this summer!

Savannah spent some quality time with her Memaw, Papaw and uncles this month and also helped her two "brothers" celebrate their 5th birthday! She had a great time riding in the "monster truck" with Dyl and with Connor on his motorcycle. :) They got a trampoline and all 3 of them love it!

We've been going through lots of changes...SJ really gave me some trying times in March and I think some of it is due to her Daddy being gone...she and I really miss him and look forward to him being here on the wkends with us. She and I also battled sinus infections and just plain yuck but are so HAPPPPEEEEE spring is here-minus the pollen. I have just 37 days left of school and am excited, scared and sad all at once. Just knowing I will be unemployed in June scares me but hopefully I will find a teaching position in VA this summer. The house is *almost* ready to be put on the market.

News from Savannah-
*I can recognize almost all of the capital letters and several lowercase ones.
*I like "my privacy" when I use the potty and have not had any accidents in over 3 wks! I know when I need to go, yippee!
*I got a new bike with training wheels but can't reach the pedals...still need to use the trike.
*I am CRAZZEEEE over Miss Taylor Swift.
*At my 3 yr checkup I weighed 24 lbs. :O
*Mommy taught me lots of nursery rhymes and I can say them all.

LOTSA LOVE
Savannah Jane
