EXCITING NEWS!!

A quick post to let you all know, it is a BOY!! Me and my babygirl are so excited for our new addition to arrive, Parker Joseph, will be making his big arrival towards the end of June!

Snow Day 2011

Boy did we get something on Sunday that we normally don't get to see! Last time I checked we had over 7 inches on the ground. It was so pretty!! But we have some pretty dangerous road conditions today, so Bella and I are stuck in the house. My car is not 4wd and we wouldn't make very far! She keeps wanting to go somewhere, but the roads are icy and it's not supposed to make it above freezing today. Needless to say, we get a SNOW DAY! :) No work for me, no school for Bella. The temps are supposed to fall into the teens tonight - so looks like the roads will be bad again in the morning. I'm a true southern girl, I like to see the snow - but a day of it is enough for me! We did have some fun in the snow yesterday though!!

snow still falling on Sunday afternoon!

Didn't realize this before, but Bella has her hands in a drill team stance! ha, a natural - I guess!

She was having fun until her feet went up in the air and her butt landed on the ground, she was fine but was ready to go back inside!

We had a pretty good weekend and the snow just topped it off! I'll leave yall with a few more pics of Bella from Saturday - she got a haircut (actually about 3 inches cut off!) and was very excited with her new do!

Bella and her Razorback beads - she loves those things!

Christmas Recap & Some News!

Happy New Year Folks! It has been way too long and I need to get back into blogging! Christmas has come and gone and I have a few pictures to share. Bella had a great Christmas, of course - she got way too much, but enjoyed every bit of it! And of course, not forgetting the reason for the season - Bella had to sing Happy Birthday to Jesus. She is so sweet and growing up way too fast!

Bella's New Ride - from Bibbie & Poppy, can you tell she was excited?!

Opening presents at Nanny's house - this was just the beginning! She loves books!

This one was big, she had to get on top to finish taking the paper off. (yes my mom forgot to remove the price tag! ha!) She loves her Barbie Dream House!!

Santa Came!

He couldn't get everything into her stocking!

An excited Bella Christmas morning

Bella on her scooter...the one thing she told everyone she wanted! Our dog chewed up the handle bars on her old one!

Can you tell she was excited??

Riding her scooter in the house - she just needed to test it out!

On to other news - Bella is going to be a BIG SISTER!! She is very excited and just adament that the baby is a sister, she even says she saw a "hairbow" on the first sonogram...my child has a vivid imagination! My approximate due date is July 3rd, but I will have a scheduled c-section so we're looking at around June 27th or so unless things change before then. I am currently 14 weeks and 1 day, I actually go back to the doctor today. We will be scheduling a sonogram for my next appointment and hopefully Baby Harrington will cooperate and let us know what he or she is! I am just wanting a happy and healthy baby, boy or girl does not really matter (but it would be fun to have a boy to have one of both!)

Stay posted for more updates (I'm going to try and be a better blogger in 2011!)

It's Been Awhile!

Ok, so I've decided to get back to blogging...after a 2 month stall, sorry! I've just been really busy with different things and my little side business has really taken off! If anyone needs pillowcase dresses, hairbows, tutus, personalized onesies, burp cloths, etc, etc, etc....just let me know! Facebook has tremendously helped my business grow. If ever just browsing around, visit The Razzle Dazzle Shop & "like it". I'm thinking about adding some kind of contest to where the 100th person (have a few to go to reach that..!) will receive a free boutique hairbow or something like that!

This summer Bella took gymnastics and loved it, but has since decided to take dance this fall instead (she's going to make her mama proud!) She starts next week at All Rythym Dance Alley and will be taking ballet and tap. Let's just say, she is VERY excited about this! She's going to be so cute in her little leotard & tutu. I started dance when I was her age and took all the way up to my junior year in high school. Speaking of high school, my 10 year reunion is this October. I can not believe it has been 10 years, kind of makes me feel old! :)





Well, that's all for now, I will try and not be gone for so long! These adorable pictures (yes, I'm a bit biased!) were taken by Erin Walker, ImaginePhotographi . She's really good and has great prices!

'Til next time,

Cohen

Scentsy!

Hello blog world! I've been gone for a little over a month - I've just been busy doing lots of things & unfortunately blogging wasn't one of them, sorry! But just a quick update on things around our world - the cruise was awesome (I will try and post pics soon)and we finally got our boat out & had a fun weekend getaway with some friends last weekend at Broken Bow (will have some pics of that as well!) My baby girl will be 3 tomorrow, can't believe it's already been three years. She is growing up way too fast and her favorite phrase right now is "...when I get bigger!" She's going to be in kindergarden before I know it! Her party is Saturday and I will post pictures of that - looks like I will be posting lots of pictures on here! :)

To explain my title, I am now selling Scentsy. The awesome wickless candle systems!! I am addicted to mine & have been for over a year and just this week decided I wanted to sell them. It's a great product & I highly recommend them! Check out my site: http://brandiharrington.scentsy.us.

Well, that's all for now. Expect a big post Saturday after the big party!!

Cruise Countdown - 3 Days!

Hello Blog world! I have been MIA for quite some time now, sorry for the delay! We have just been very busy w/ lots of things! I've been doing some craft shows & trying to get ready for our cruise. The cruise has had a change of plans though - Jared decided Sunday (6 days before cruise day!) that he did *NOT* want to go!? Okay now, what's wrong with this picture?? He says he has no desire to go on a cruise - so....me & my Mama are going! I have a feeling we're going to have a really good time. Jared will have daddy duty from Friday - Thursday...prayers please! :) Hopefully Miss Bella will be good...she's just a big-time mama's girl these days. But I am making her up some little gift bags to have as a "bribe" for getting ready each morning!

On another note, Bella had some glamour shots made a few weeks ago & the pictures are absolutely adorable! She did wonderful & made her mama proud. I will get those pictures posted soon on here.

I will try to get some pics of Bella posted before we leave & I might even be able to get Jared to post some while I'm gone (we'll see about that one!).

I'll try & not be missing for so long next time!

Guess what Bella's Wearing.....

My baby girl is turning into a "big girl" now. She has worn her panties since Thursday with no accidents!! Even on a road trip this weekend, we had to make several stops & get the potty out so Miss Priss could go. We really needed our video camera with us....its was quite a scene! Everyone is so proud of Bella & most importantly - she is proud of herself!

Easter Weekend Recap!

Well, I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend and a great Easter! We had a rather eventful weekend with our church's egg hunt on Saturday morning and then with the beautiful day we had on Saturday, my child did not spend much time inside....but she had a great time being outdoors and then Easter Sunday, of course was another busy day with church & family eatings! Bella also had an egg hunt at school on Friday. We have entirely TOO MUCH candy!! Anyone need some!? :)
We reached a new milestone on Saturday afternoon....Bella learned how to ride her bicycle (w/ training wheels, of course!) and so now, we think we're big stuff and don't want to do anything but ride our bike or jump on the trampoline. She loves being outside!!
This may end up being picture overload - but enjoy!
