familygage: february is almost gone...???

and that means its closer to SPRIIIIIIING!!!!!!!
LOVE spring! ESPECIALLY in ATL! not sure what it is- maybe its all the beautiful blooms, the endless amounts of walkers, bikers, runners out and about, or the massive array of restaurants which offer outdoor dining...but i love spring! i know its not quite here yet, and i'm SURE it'll SNOW again before its 'official', but i just had to give a shout out to spring approaching since this weather has been spring-like...

now, onto the real reason you're reading this...the kids!!! words for my two at this time of the month- warren: smarty-pants (thinks he knows all, is all and says all-blah! but at least he's cute when he's acting up, right?!) anna: MONKEY! that will never change! this little girl climbs on anything that can get her higher than the adorable 31" she is right now! she is definitely coming into her own...not sure how i feel about that, but we'll plug along...

february has become quite the month for excitement. my niece celebrated her first birthday and we're UNDER CONTRACT WITH A NEW HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!! the MOST exciting part of this month is....drum roll....(NO! WE'RE NOT PREGNANT AGAIN!) we have to be OUT of our house BEFORE we close on the new one!!!!!!!!!!! gages out: march 10th; renters in: march 11th...gages close on new house march 31st...no, we're not homeless...well, we are but we're not thanks to my faaaaaaaabulous in-laws! we'll be staying with them the 3 weeks before moving...i was veeeeery apprehensive about it all and probably have had about 3 breakdowns since we decided to go thru with it all...not for nerves but for memories we've made in this precious house...aaron and i really made this house all it is now. AND the babies we have were brought home to nestle and grow in this humble abode...but i'm fine and its great b/c this house HAS SPACE(!!!!!!!), is in the school district where we want to be, has a great neighborhood pool, clubhouse, playground, and we have great friends who already live there! so, YAY to that! oh and it needs a new kitchen. so, i'm PUMPED about that one!!!

ok- back to the kids...here are some pics so you can see how much they've grown and how stinkin' adorable they are! but i'm not partial... :)

i believe warren will ALWAYS love firetrucks and the like...
