Quote of the day

Tonight the kids wanted to sleep together. Since it is not a school night we let them. They have been "trying" to go to sleep for 45 mins when Kelly came in the living room to tell us Madi was not letting him put his feet where he needed to. Then comes Madi trying to defend herself. Then comes the good part. Kelly said "Dad! Madi is listening to the devil!" (Mark and I are trying not to laugh because he was so serious!) "She was going to scratch me. She's listening to the devil!" Madi then replied "I AM NOT listening to the devil!"
Bedtime converstions here at the Stancell's house are priceless!!

Love you both!!!

Thank you from the other side of the world...at least it feels that way.

Sweet Sisters,

Rarely am I at a loss for words but I don't even really think I can convey how much your visit meant to me.  I didn't realize how much I just needed to be with family.  It was more than special to spend such quality time with the two of you.  Thank you loving on my babies.  It was special to see and also a nice relief.  Thank you for listening to me talk and talk...and rant a little.  Thank you both for just being the wonderful women that you are...I miss you both so much and can hardly wait to see at Christmas.

all the love I have in my heart

Let the countdown begin...

... Ok let's be honest. I have been counting down since Amy bought the tickets but two weeks from today Amy and I will be waking up in North Carolina for our first full day together!!! I will be holding a precious baby and having an awesome conversation with Liam (that let's face it will probably be way over my head). I CAN'T WAIT!!

Love to you all
The #1

My worlds are about to collide...

2 weeks and a couple of days and you are here...I am so excited I can hardly handle myself.  Also, it is my birthday week...we finally have some cooler temps here in NC...so who cares that I have 3 gaping holes in my ceiling?!  That's not going to bring me down.

I'd post a pic but I'm on the wrong computer.
