My little buttercups...bathtime!

She just admires her big brother

Too precious

He is so pretty!

And he loves her too!

My babies are the best thing that life has brought me. They are beautiful and so brand new. I love them to pieces. They are both so different but they are both so amazing to me.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Go Yankees!


So I figured I would write tonight since I will not have anytime tomorrow. My little Miss Sadie Rae will be 6 months tomorrow! She is half way to being 1 year old. I can't believe it. Seems like just yesterday we brought her home to a crazy house full of renovations and family. Everyone was so sweet when we came back from the hospital. Josh and the rest of our family and friends worked hard to have us moved into the new house and have Sadie's nursery kinda completed. It was very sweet. My mom and Danielle helped me get through probably one of my hardest weeks as a mom. I was a mess the first week trying to balance a new home, new baby, nursing, and feeling guilty cause I wasn't spending a lot of time with my Bubba. I was emotionally and physically tired. But I look back now and it was all worth it.
The things that are going on in Sadie's life are: rolling over, sitting up on her own, eating rice, some vegetables, some fruit, giggling, big smiles, lots of cooing, loving her bubba, crazy but we are still nursing, and blessing our hearts everyday! I am just so blessed to have a beautiful family. My kids mean the world to me. They are completely different but they both are so amazing. I just love how Bubba randomly tells me that he loves me. He will walk over to me and tell me he wants to give me a kiss. He is just beautiful inside and out. He is pretty much potty trained! Thank you Jesus. He still has some accidents but for the most part he is doing awesome. It's funny cause when we are outside with the youth or something and there isn't a bathroom around he will go outside on the grass. Josh made up the name "Jungle pee". So whenever he has to go outside he say "Momma, I have to Jungle pee". So cute. Well, anyways, I can't believe I have had time to write this much. My life is crazy busy and I love it that way but time is gold to me when I get a moment to myself. So there ya have it! The Allard's are still alive and living and the kids are doing great. They are growing up just as perfect as ever. And I am having a blast being a stay at home mommy to them! We may not be the richest people as far as cash goes but the rewards for watching your kids growing up is priceless. I am blessed!

Pictures Galore!

So much has taken place in these last couple of weeks. Not much time to write now. I am shocked that I actually had time to put pictures up. Having 2 kids and being in the ministry leaves very little time for updating the blog. Those that have a similar lifestyle would understand (Melissa)! I don't know how you do it with 3 kids. Superwoman. Again, I will write more tonight when the kids are asleep and youth is over with.
