Our first "pet"

So, last Sunday we pick up Gabi from nursery and low and behold she has a fish in a huge bag of water. "Mommy look I got a fishy and fishy food!" K.C. had not walked out of class yet and you can imagine his reaction to find out the Moultrie's have their very first pet!

Liv becomes estatic to find out we have a fish and they are fighting over holding it in the car. Then, we get home and get out a bowl with rocks and put the fish inside. Liv walks up to K.C. and says, "Dad, you said all pets were messy but now you REALIZE they are not all messy!" CALLED OUT!

So, the week goes by and we hit up Pet Smart to figure out what I need to do to keep this fish alive. The guy tells me the only way for the fish to survive is to buy a huge aquarium. UH, NO!! So, I tell him that is not going to happen and he lets us bring in the fish. Liv was crushed until K.C. explained we were like Diego and The Wonder Pets, saving the goldfish and taking him back to friends. A movie from the video store helped, too!

Our first pet lasted only a week, but at least we perserved his life and improved the quality by about 100%!! Bye, bye Coral!

Graham, Jared & Nicole come to visit!









We loved having K.C.'s brother, his wife and little baby Graham at our home! The girls were obsessed having little Graham around. Liv tried to mother him the whole time and Gabi was constantly less than an inch from his face. It was pretty cute seeing them with their little cousin. He is such a sweet little boy. We had fun shopping, making dinner and of course playing Mario with all 4 of us. Nic and I hit up Cardio Barre and just chat, chat, chat. Wish you all lived next door! We miss you and love you so much. We're up next to head out to Cheyenne!! Can't wait!

Valentines!







K.C. surprised me with a night out...dinner, babysitter, shopping and a new Michael Kors watch...LOVE IT!

We bought the girls these dresses for Valentines...I mean, you know I had to go "Southern Style" with the bow that is as big as their head...They are so adorable. Liv was teaching Gabi how to pose and hold her dress out...I mean, where did she get that from?? Happy Valentine's Day!!

Sisters in town!






Kathy (K.C.'s Aunt)and Connie (K.C.'s Mom) came to watch the girls while we went to a meeting. Then we had the weekend to hang out and celebrate Connie's birthday. We went to dinner and spent every night up talking until at least 1am! It was so fun...lots of laughing...as always with these two! Thank you so much!! We love you!

Family Bowling:)







A night of family fun...bowling and BJ's for dinner:) This was from January but I have been a total slacker on this blog...my life is filled with work, kids, work, church, and family visitors...no time for posting pictures! I'm having too much fun:)

The girls are getting so big! Gabi talks like she is 4. She copies everything Olivia does and is down to do whatever...she is pretty laid back and easy going...but she will hold her ground every now and then when she means it! She just sings, and sings and sings. The latest rave at our house is the soundtrack from "The Squeakquel" with Alvin and the Chipmunks. The girls dance and sing through the whole CD and I must recommend it because its all popular songs "Chipmunk style."

The favorite is "All the Single Ladies"....oh yes, this is requested each time we get in the car. It is hilarious watching them act out this song.

We also have formed a rock band at the Moultrie home, only Dad and I are only allowed to be groupies. Liv is the lead singer and plays guitar and Gab holds down the drums and follows the dance moves. I wish I knew how to post the videos of them rocking but I'm just not that capable. I'm lucky to post anything people!
