Lemon Drop Lane

IS NOW OPEN FOR BUSINESS!!!!!!!!
Today was our first day open. We were quite excited but since people can't read our minds that we are now open we had very little business. LOL
Our sign is in the process of being made right now and they said we should have it no later than monday. We do have an ad that my mom added to hers on those little electronic billboards that you see in restaurants so hopefully the word will get out soon. We will also have an ad in a christian magazine that is starting up here in town soon. So tell everyone you know to come and visit us at 312 Guilbeau road across from The Gallery apartments.

The family is well. Drew has an appointment with Dr. Bob next week for her 6 month check up and I can't wait. We still LOVE Dr. Bob so it is always nice to see him especially since he always gives us good news about Drew.
Rylie started K4 on the 13th of August and boy was that a rough day for me. Of course I cried like a baby the whole day. Actually Drew cried too b/c we left her sissy behind. :(
Rylie loves every part of school except the part where she has to go to bed early. She gives us a hard time most every night. She also started dancing class today along with her friend Grace. Miss Rylie is one busy girl!
Drew is adjusting a little better without her being home all day. She does not like the fact that Rylie and Daddy both leave at the same time in the morning but she is getting better.
I will update soon with store pictures and pictures of the girlies.

Lots of catching up to do

She got a hold of Rylie's lipstick from her recital. :)

Sick again

Drew started weezing last week and had a low grade fever so I took her to the ER at 5 pm b/c of course by then the dr's. office was closed. They did x-rays and told me she had pnuemoia???? HUH? So they sent us home and at 1 am she woke up weezing again really bad. We tookher back to the ER and it was determined that she did not have pnuemonia that she had croup. She has not even had a cough but whatever she is fine now, THANK GOD!
Her birthday is friday! Can you believe she will be TWO?!?!?!?!?!
I am still in shock and awe of my miracle.

Hello

Oh my goodness where do I begin. I see that it has been forever since I have posted anything.
We have been so busy around here lately. A friend and I are opening up a children's "boutique" in the smae building with my mom. So it has been non stop since this all began. More news on that later when things are more finalized. We are thinking sometime atthe end of august for the store to be open. So Look for further news on "Lemon Drop Lane". :)
Drew is doing so excellant! She doesn't talk much but she is quite smart. The past few weeks she has REFUSED to keep a diaper on. She now goes to the potty all on her own without anyone asking her. The girl is not even 2 yet! Speaking of 2, she will be on August 10th, my little miracle is such a blessing! And oh such a handful but I love her all the same. We don't have another cardiologist appointment until sometime in September. I think she weighs somewhere around 23 pounds, she eats everything all the time.
We went to the beach with our friend in June and had an awesome time. Drew hated the sand but loved everything else. She could have sand all over her from head to toe but refused to let it touch the bottom of her feet.
Lots of pictures to come.

Crazy!

Oh man Drew keeps me busy! The girl NEVER stops.

National Geographic had a film crew come a week ago to film us for a show they are doing on Katrina and us "trapped" in New Orleans. It doesnt air until the fall so I will be sure to let everyone know the dates.

We went to Houston for Mother's day and the girls had a blast at the aquarium/fair. Last weekend we went to Dallas and the girls and I did LOTS of shopping while Steve played foosball. :)

I have a bunch of pictures that I will post either today or tomorrow.

We were all sick a couple of weeks ago and Thank God that is now over. Steve and I were both sick for our anniversary of 9 years (together for 16!) but all is good now.

We are going to Destin in 2 weeks with Cassie, Preston, and Miss Grace. We can't wait! Not sure how much relaxation we will get with crazy Drew but it will still be fun. Seriously she is like the energizer bunny. LOL She is doing fabulous health wis, no complaints here.

Over due Easter pics

FUN!

More Pictures!

Festival International

Sorry

I have not been able to log in at all lately. It is now fixed!

Drew had a cardiologist appointment last wednesday with Dr. Dalal here in town. She said she looked great and that we don't have to see her for 6 months instead of the 3 we had been doing. Besdies that Drew has been grumpy the past few days. She is cutting her eye teeth and keeps pointing in her mouth saying "oww-cheeee". :(
She has been trying to say so many new words and new signs.
I am working on a video slide show so hopefully one day soon I will finish it and post it here.
Lots of pics to come!

HAPPY EASTER!

Happy Easter to you all!
We will try to have an egg hunt outside later if the sun stays out. Pics to come soon!

Drew woke up with a 103 fever with absolutely no other symptoms, so i am thinking maybe her teeth?????? Or that is what i am hopeing anyway. We already have a pediatrican appointment at 845 tomorrow so we will see what the fever is about too.

Hope you all have/had a great day!
