Oliviaisms????

Okay, so my friend Misty had the best idea on her blog...she put cute things her little girl says (she is 2 also). I just had to add this on because Olivia cracks me up all the time with the things she says!

We are in the car driving and Gabi starts crying and she says, "Its okay Gabi, we're almost there." You guess she hears that a lot?!

She loves to sing while we are driving and if Gabi is asleep, she asks," Its okay for me to sing Mommy Daddy song soft while Gabi sleeping?" Its funny because she totally raises her voice to make it a question!

K.C. was watching football the other day and she asked him her famous question, "What doin' Daddio?" He told her he was watching football and asked her what her favorite sport is...her response, "Basketball Daddy, come on!"

Olivia loves to run, so she says to K.C., "Come get me Daddy, I dare you!"

Every time we meet someone she says, "This is my Mommy."

Everything is highly dramatic and very expressive...hmmm...the apple doesn't fall far from the tree:)

Charlie & Bessie



These are K.C.'s grandparents. They love the girls! These are pics from them meeting Gabi for the first time!

Favorite PJs!


These are my favorite PJs for the girls. They are at Gymboree and the just snug their little bodies and keep them warm. I got the girls matching polka dot ones for Christmas. Of course, I couldn't hold out...so they are already wearing them! Oh well, I might as well get as much use as possible. They go from newborn up to 5T!!

Gabi has some on in the pic above...so cute! Olivia likes to sport these with her new winter boots...oh yes, she is already into fashion and has as many pairs of shoes as I do! That is what happens when your Daddy loves shoes:)

Go Gamecocks!



As the black sheep in my family, I am a Gamecock! Therefore, my girls will be South Carolina fans! I know they have let us down the second half of this season, but all I care about is that we beat Clemson and I have bragging rights with my family for another year! Gabi and Olivia got these shirts from a couple of my old teammates. Thanks Lyd and Taco! GO SC!!

Orlando Trip

K.C. and I went to Orlando for the weekend in October. Our company gives employees and their spouses a trip every year where you bring your spouse and spend a relaxing weekend! We ate at Emeril's restaurant, Chop Chop, which was amazing and also went to see Cirque De Soleil! It was my first time going and it was absolutely amazing! These people have the most amazing bodies I have ever seen! So, anytime there is one by you, it is well worth the money!! This is one of K.C.'s best friends from work, Marshall and his girlfriend, Melinda.

Happy Halloween!





Halloween has never been this fun! It all changes when you get to dress up your kids. Olivia was a Unicorn and we just put a cute pumpkin hat on Gabi. Olivia was totally into her little costume...she kept looking in the mirror saying, "Mom, I look cute!" You guess she hears that a lot?! Her favorite part was running up to all the doors with K.C. getting candy. She would take the candy, say thank you and then say, "Lets get more candy, Daddy!" If people didn't answer the door fast enough, she would look at K.C. and say, "They aren't home, Daddy. Lets go!" It was hilarious! Our neighborhood did a trunk or treat where people park their cars at the church and decorate their trunks. They have fun games and candy for all the kids. Its much faster than going door to door!! Olivia is pretty sad that Halloween only lasts one day. She is still carrying her trick or treat bag around the house with all her candy. The little boy in the picture with her is her good buddy Ryder. They are too cute together!

Sisters






I am so happy to have 2 little girls so they can experience how wonderful it is to have a sister! I grew up with 2 sisters and I wouldn't trade it for the world! I can already see how Olivia is going to watch out for Gabi. She tries to tell me how to take care of her and she is only 2!! Every morning she comes up to Gabi and kisses her face and says, "Goodmorning Gabi, its your sister Livvy." Could that be any cuter?!


We had a girl come and take pictures of both of them when Gabi was born. She was amazing! She came right to our house and gave us a copy of the disc with all the pictures on it. I wanted to show you all a few of them! You can't beat it for $75!

Little Gabi!








For those who have yet to see our newest addition, Gabriella "Gabi" joined our family September 6the weighing in at 6lbs 15oz! She is growing so fast and will be 2 months old tomorrow! Everyone who sees her, including the pediatrician, calls her, "Olivia 2." I guess K.C. is going to have both of our girls looking just like him! Gabi is a very sweet baby. She is smiling and cooing...you forget how fun they are! Olivia is very protective of her little sister...she is already a little mommy! We blessed Gabi at church yesterday. It was a very amazing experience!
