We like a lot of people in our neighborhood did not go out of town so we decided to take a trip to the zoo with some of our friends. Mary Claire had an absolute blast and has asked everyday since to go back and see the monkeys, elephants, bears, etc. Laurel also had a good time and was such a trooper. She did not get to nap from all the excitement and I was surprised at what good spirits she was in the whole day. We went to the zoo with the Klay & Kidd family and we had a great time. Here are some pictures from our day!<br /><br /><p style="visibility:visible;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://widget-7c.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" height="320" width="426" style="width:426px;height:320px"><param name="movie" value="http://widget-7c.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf"><param name="quality" value="high"><param name="scale" value="noscale"><param name="salign" value="l"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"> <param name="flashvars" value="cy=ms&il=1&channel=1008806316545812604&site=widget-7c.slide.com"></object><p><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=1008806316545812604&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-7c.slide.com/p1/1008806316545812604/ms_t000_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=1008806316545812604&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-7c.slide.com/p2/1008806316545812604/ms_t000_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></p></p>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-91186837946849572982008-04-15T10:59:00.003-04:002008-07-07T16:33:02.330-04:00<p></p>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-3777258237946768992008-04-15T10:46:00.003-04:002008-11-13T13:13:47.967-05:00Another Year Older....and, hopefully wiser. I had a wonderful birthday this year filled with a nice surprise. My birthday actually arrived this year with little thought from me. It was not a major milestone and I had my hands full with being a mom and wife. So I was naturally shocked to see my Mom and Ms. Janet walking in the Chick-fil-a on Friday, April 4th. Wayne has been so busy with work lately that I really did not think he would have the time to plan anything and I figured that we would just hang out and maybe have dinner. Wrong....he made plans with my Mom & Ms. Janet to come in for the weekend and he had a surprise party on Saturday night with a yummy Ice Cream Cake....my absolute favorite!<br /><br />Thank you Wayne for a very special weekend! I had a great time and I enjoyed all my presents.<br /><br />I love you, Today!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivx1B-c2Yx8YqJO1Eq-JgkFVTxIJ0a0Ce5D2me_SkJCTcxjMm6YL9g1iW3R3kyPm-Qtka-V7nFsY3zAKZCcTTZt-QpHa9K8VCFJdSsNDxhRE0nxgLqk5TKOeY23aV17QfwBPwts-3gyIXL/s1600-h/IMG_5721.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivx1B-c2Yx8YqJO1Eq-JgkFVTxIJ0a0Ce5D2me_SkJCTcxjMm6YL9g1iW3R3kyPm-Qtka-V7nFsY3zAKZCcTTZt-QpHa9K8VCFJdSsNDxhRE0nxgLqk5TKOeY23aV17QfwBPwts-3gyIXL/s320/IMG_5721.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5189485825233590066" border="0" /></a>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-88471165434157199402008-03-21T21:28:00.006-04:002008-03-21T22:54:39.743-04:00Happy 1st Birthday, Laurel!Wow! What a year! I am going to reminisce a little so you will have to bear with me! It really does seem like yesterday that I finally talked myself into taking a pregnancy test. I was just certain that I had been running too much but that little voice in the back of my head thought just maybe. Well it turned out that there was no maybe and that I was indeed pregnant.<br /><br />Mary Claire was just 10 months old and I thought...how in the hell am I going to do this again?!?! I can remember calling Wayne frantically only to get his voice mail over and over again. So I called my mother and started the sob story about how I was pregnant and what was I going to do. She composed herself and told me that this was great and that my babies would be so close and how the timing was just absolutely perfect. I felt some better because Mom's have a way of making things alright.<br /><br />I remember Wayne calling me back after what seemed like an absolute eternity. He was stoked...absolutely thrilled with joy. See he had not been the one that had just been pregnant with our first. Not to mention that I puked morning, noon, & night with Mary Claire for almost 20 weeks and also developed Pre-E and had a baby at 35 weeks that weighed only 4lbs. 15oz. Plus I had finally gotten my figure back and lost the 50+ lbs. I gained!<br /><br />After two months and what turned out to be an absolute perfect pregnancy I started to get very excited. Yes I was nervous about juggling two under the age of two but now I am so happy that we did it this way! Having two girls is just wonderful. I am not sure what having a brother is like but I know having sisters has made me a better person! Sisters really have a special bond as I am sure most siblings do. It is just fun to think about the giggles, secrets, tea parties, etc.<br /><br />I carried Laurel 37 weeks to the day which was my goal. I really wanted to be full term and I am glad that I made it and did not go a day longer. She was born approximately an hour and a half after my water broke weighing a whopping 7lbs. 4oz. and 21 inches. A much bigger baby than her not so big sister Mary Claire.<br /><br />The hospital ride was intense to say the least. We live about an hour from the hospital and I was uncertain that we would make it on time considering the intensity of the contractions. Wayne made it to the hospital a nervous wreck in a record 35 minutes. Laurel was born in less than hour after arriving allowing her mother no pain medication.<br /><br />I have to say that she has been the most wonderful surprise that I have ever had. She continues to amaze me everyday and she fills our heart with an enormous amount of love. I look forward to all the times ahead with our beautiful girls. God really blessed Wayne and I with a beautiful family.<br /><br />Laurel had two parties for her first birthday. We celebrated in GA with friends and in Mississippi with family. The first of the two parties (Georgia) turned out to be better because Laurel enjoyed herself and was not sick.<br /><br />It never fails, I go home and someone always gets sick and we are lucky if we do not all get sick. This time we all got sick. It started with Laurel and I and we gave it to Wayne and Mary Claire. Laurel and Mary Claire got ear infections and we all have an upper respiratory infection to boot. So on her actual birthday she spent most of it asleep with a fever that would not break. So the pictures from the MS birthday of Laurel are few. She really did not eat her cake, open any of her presents, or participate with any of the festivities. She was attached to me the whole time because she is also going through a little separation anxiety on top of being sick.<br /><br />Here are some pictures from both of her little parties.<br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-ab.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=2305843009220613291&site=widget-ab.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=2305843009220613291&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-ab.slide.com/p1/2305843009220613291/bb_t046_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=2305843009220613291&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-ab.slide.com/p2/2305843009220613291/bb_t046_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-64242894612662322492008-02-29T13:43:00.002-05:002008-02-29T14:20:10.937-05:00Some PicturesIt has been a busy month for us but that is really nothing new at all. Wayne has been working long hours and the girls are definitely keeping me on my toes. All in all February has been a good month and I cannot believe how fast time is going right now. Please tell me that it will slow down!!!!<br /><br />Laurel is almost a year old and that is very hard for me to believe. It really seems like we just had her a couple of months ago. The first year with Mary Claire actually felt like a year, and that is probably because Wayne and I were clueless about children and parenting. I would like to think that we have grown wise in some ways; definitely still clueless for the most part. Laurel has had her first stomach bug this month and another ear infection...needless to say, I am so ready for hot weather and well children. She is now pulling up in her crib and pulling up with furniture somewhat. It is funny though because she pulls up and cannot figure out how to get back down. I think because she is so tall she becomes very frightened at the aspect of falling on her bottom. I would too considering that it is a pretty far drop.<br /><br />Mary Claire is becoming more independent if you can believe that! She is also talking non-stop. Her vocabulary has exploded these past few months and since she can really communicate she never stops talking and I do mean NEVER. By the end of the night I sometimes find myself watching mute TV and then realize that I am just enjoying a moment of silence. For the most part I think our tantrums are becoming less but we are definitely getting into more trouble. I am not sure trouble is the right word for it because it is completely normal behavior but I am having problems coming up with another term to describe it. Maybe I should say that it is more trouble for me as a mom in that I find myself constantly on guard. These are some events that have taken place in the past two weeks.<br /><br />1. Wayne is working late. I am at home with a child (Laurel) who is vomiting and Mary Claire who is extremely constipated. I get Mary Claire squared away and am in the process of giving another bath to Laurel and cleaning up vomit when I hear the words: Look Mama...It is POWDER. Mary Claire has emptied an entire container of powder on to our couch. Loads of fun for me since I already have my hands very full. Not too mention that cleaning powder off your couch is not very fun!<br /><br />2. Wayne is working late again!! We are getting ready to head over to a friends to watch American Idol and I am going to put the kids to bed over there. I bathed Mary Claire early in the day so I would only have to bath Laurel. I put in a movie for Mary Claire and proceed to bath Laurel and get everything together. When I come out I find Mary Claire on the couch covered in hand soap. She has gotten the soap out of the bathroom and covered her body in it. So it took another bath to get that taken care of.<br /><br />3. Lately Mary Claire has become obsessed with Lotion. We lotion her and Laurel after their baths but she always wants to play in it for some reason. I have told her that we only use lotion after our baths but she insists on getting in it at every opportunity. Today I am doing laundry and fixing lunch when I walk in the room and discover Mary Claire on my bed covered in lotion. So I finally put it away and out of her reach....I should have done this a long time ago but like I mentioned earlier I am still mostly CLUELESS!<br /><br />I will post a picture of Mary Claire in the lotion at the bottom of this post but I failed to take pictures of the other two events. I really found myself aggravated and wanting to drink hard liquor because I was exhausted by that time of day! However, I want to remember all these things because I know I will find it really funny when she is older. And it will be fun to talk about when she is dealing with her children one day...that is if she chooses to have any!<br /><br />Wayne and I are staying extremely busy lately and are finding it very hard to spend any real time together. I am hoping that we can steal a weekend away sometime this summer. Wayne and his team have been working on a huge deal and finally won it this past week! However that comes with a lot more work for them....the joys of a one income family. I have started working out again and this time I have a workout partner. I am still going strong after only 5 weeks but I have to say that it is the outlet that I have been needing. I am also taking my first sewing class next weekend. I have had a sewing machine since Wayne and I got married and really have no clue on how to use it so I am about to learn.<br /><br />Anyhow that is what is going on with the crew!<br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-fb.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=1585267068839952635&site=widget-fb.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1585267068839952635&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-fb.slide.com/p1/1585267068839952635/bb_t000_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1585267068839952635&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-fb.slide.com/p2/1585267068839952635/bb_t000_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-29246121888557210352008-02-04T19:38:00.000-05:002008-11-13T13:13:49.066-05:00A Half Time Show of Our OwnI am sure that many of you watched the half time show during the Super Bowl on Sunday.

I cannot believe that January 08 is already ending! We have had a very busy month. It takes me a while to get back into the routine of things after the holidays. I think that we are finally there though and I am glad of it!<br /><br />I was worried about Mary Claire starting back to school after having a break but she never missed a beat. She is learning so much and it is amazing to witness all the changes. She is literally speaking in full sentences. She is also potty training and is doing amazing. She has started doing #1 in her potty and is not having many accidents at all. I am sure it will take sometime to get her fully potty trained but we seem to be on the way and that is amazing in itself because as most of you know this is not my most favorite thing to do....HA!<br /><br />Laurel has gone from army crawling to cruising and she is really on her big sister's heels these days. She has also starting saying Da Da and is babbling a good bit. I wonder if she will be a talker like her sister? She has three new teeth on the top and another one on its way so we now have a total of 5 teeth.<br /><br />Mary Claire and Laurel are interacting a lot more these days and it is fun to watch. They are not always happy to be around each other but that is to be expected. Mary Claire is a little bossy and Laurel likes to annoy her sister by trying to play with everything Mary Claire is interested in. I am sure they will figure everything out soon enough.<br /><br />We actually had two days of snow this month in the same week. It was beautiful and Mary Claire had an absolute blast playing in it. Wayne and I had a great time too. Although Wayne tried to kill himself sledding on the golf course and it took a couple of days for him to recover.<br /><br />I had my first case of strep throat and for anyone that has ever had this you know it is just awful. Thankfully I got some antibiotics and got over it fairly quick. Mary Claire actually caught it from me and is on antibiotics but doing very well. We are keeping our fingers crossed that Laurel does not catch it.<br /><br />Here are some pictures from our snow days that I have been meaning to post.<br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-58.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=2161727821140755544&site=widget-58.slide.com" style="width: 400px; height: 320px;" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width: 400px; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=0&id=2161727821140755544&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-58.slide.com/p1/2161727821140755544/bb_t046_v000_a000_f00/images/xslide1.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=0&id=2161727821140755544&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-58.slide.com/p2/2161727821140755544/bb_t046_v000_a000_f00/images/xslide2.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0" /></a></div></div>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-4302548884632550682008-01-07T20:21:00.000-05:002008-11-13T13:13:49.870-05:00Getting Back to Normal!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDqZDkVGQXWWs_J3QndqOwC9b2GO1oTlnzjTEyhOHWASzBktPyWaN9D9dw2b-5dQk9UTAndZd0YJioqyy1r7034W9Rtz24AhsOFk2DRTVF3Hin56892BVTBfZ5f90NyVLVb6hi9N8jQrw5/s1600-h/IMG_5350.JPG">Well we had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year! Mary Claire had a blast opening up gifts from Santa and Laurel seemed to be very excited over the wrapping paper and bags. Mary Claire was still very frightened at the idea of Santa coming to her house and on Christmas morning she informed both Wayne and I that Santa had not brought her any presents but instead the Grinch had brought them to her.<br /><br />We spent Christmas here in Georgia and then headed to Mississippi the day after.

It was a blast spending some quality time with Wayne's family since it is not very often that he gets to go home.<br /><br />Next we headed to Mee and Nonie's where Wayne was able to get in some hunting although he and mom both came up empty handed. We rang in the New Year with a bond fire and hot dogs and smores. Mary Claire had a good time but she did not care too much for the fireworks...maybe next year!<br /><br />We then came home and we were able to spend a couple of days together before Wayne returned to work this morning. It took about three hours to get all the toys put away and organized. Mary Clarie starts back to school tomorrow.<br /><br />It was a wonderful holiday season but I have to admit that I am so glad to be home and back to normal.<br /><br />Here a couple of pictures from Christmas. We did not take as many as I would have liked to but we used our video camera instead.<br /></a> <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPfl4IySCr9XWbj0OsIxCfNr1UOEI-Xa6dCndQWAsjEfM8CAEgIludNjg3eLCL2oOyN-JOXvq5ajr5n9Gxdro_s5Yu5UQmk6fBK-5aw8NgYMp7CBzsKOEV6AsjAYsaLdYQNrn1KaT1acqE/s1600-h/IMG_5351.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPfl4IySCr9XWbj0OsIxCfNr1UOEI-Xa6dCndQWAsjEfM8CAEgIludNjg3eLCL2oOyN-JOXvq5ajr5n9Gxdro_s5Yu5UQmk6fBK-5aw8NgYMp7CBzsKOEV6AsjAYsaLdYQNrn1KaT1acqE/s320/IMG_5351.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152915665195329746" border="0" /></a> <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP5OCPlcN-I_rQvpmRQ18WQTcqFexlqzsU0M5HR-MyGzCJTV_Omvkss5Z1P4dl4oqqv2tRnBCoO1bzxGePiwxa3gia6wIO7FQwG76awgNH7XGGgE0aASOQUaodnIBPFb3UBj012O9p9P74/s1600-h/IMG_5363.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP5OCPlcN-I_rQvpmRQ18WQTcqFexlqzsU0M5HR-MyGzCJTV_Omvkss5Z1P4dl4oqqv2tRnBCoO1bzxGePiwxa3gia6wIO7FQwG76awgNH7XGGgE0aASOQUaodnIBPFb3UBj012O9p9P74/s320/IMG_5363.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152915733914806514" border="0" /></a> <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLsH_Sot9fXrSpxpA0NrGhqR3u0p2hbh03FfQsRSHPXh7XdYl85bKslWQAFpBaW0z1BbIScPxtHn0FWg-sfK5_cHKq4SyYrYb9FKNCRHOIf6eSIDZ5XPR55YA2j8kPYCgpEzZsxOHPNkZq/s1600-h/IMG_5366.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLsH_Sot9fXrSpxpA0NrGhqR3u0p2hbh03FfQsRSHPXh7XdYl85bKslWQAFpBaW0z1BbIScPxtHn0FWg-sfK5_cHKq4SyYrYb9FKNCRHOIf6eSIDZ5XPR55YA2j8kPYCgpEzZsxOHPNkZq/s320/IMG_5366.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152915759684610306" border="0" /></a>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-4409806428479334382007-12-18T09:29:00.000-05:002008-11-13T13:13:50.312-05:00Seeing Santa........<span style="text-decoration: underline;">S</span>aturday night we had a Christmas Party for the kids in the neighborhood. Santa actually stopped by and gave the kids each a gift. It is the first time we have been in the same room with Santa in Mary Claire's lifetime.<br /><br />Mary Claire is simply terrified of the jolly Ol' Saint Nick. We did manage to get a picture of the four of us with him before the night was over but Mary Claire and I are standing far away as you will be able to tell.<br /><br />We have read the many Christmas books, had talks about Santa, and STILL she could care less she does not want him to come see her, come to our house, bake him cookies, etc. Maybe next year she will start to warm up some!<br /><br />Laurel seemed to think Santa was alright. She set with him for a long time and got her gift. I had to go and get Mary Claire's gift for her and we spent most of the night in the back of the room playing as far away from Santa as we could!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy8EmeU8IhhbyJboQhUtajQq-UO_-Po0QjLfYeVt5Z6xaFaU00tzLvXHTOkrmhHgEHbMGPXDPg4EYSk4fKmkue2AmuwJ1aEpu0ipNkFgN8fzhx4iV_LAzuDiPGMKMan6VOpFHPhJMNuYbI/s1600-h/IMG_5337.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy8EmeU8IhhbyJboQhUtajQq-UO_-Po0QjLfYeVt5Z6xaFaU00tzLvXHTOkrmhHgEHbMGPXDPg4EYSk4fKmkue2AmuwJ1aEpu0ipNkFgN8fzhx4iV_LAzuDiPGMKMan6VOpFHPhJMNuYbI/s320/IMG_5337.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5145322152045855410" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNdX2pqrEBU7ZQGxBJhWtb7SyUErtnKUXu_AsfPZhWHpMfQsM3JLuxECet4u_dSvz84WjBRD83pGZtIS0jA8guq71oILOUhU_0i9OhxaY-J92kZAyxSxu4g81q7Gqv0u4DwB-cL50LbMPM/s1600-h/IMG_5340.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNdX2pqrEBU7ZQGxBJhWtb7SyUErtnKUXu_AsfPZhWHpMfQsM3JLuxECet4u_dSvz84WjBRD83pGZtIS0jA8guq71oILOUhU_0i9OhxaY-J92kZAyxSxu4g81q7Gqv0u4DwB-cL50LbMPM/s320/IMG_5340.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5145322718981538546" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiImd92E3W2Cf-V7GyxKCYXtXKQAetC3bHRS2-SI6qlIxMgLdMHqfuFbCyw9L_aiJHVKwhv1Ggy7-WZpVUuvF5KmhwtAU42EdEnIj-07kVSciCojxzvyfLZkKWkZb4X5c2GVY26xdHg4BXJ/s1600-h/IMG_5324.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiImd92E3W2Cf-V7GyxKCYXtXKQAetC3bHRS2-SI6qlIxMgLdMHqfuFbCyw9L_aiJHVKwhv1Ggy7-WZpVUuvF5KmhwtAU42EdEnIj-07kVSciCojxzvyfLZkKWkZb4X5c2GVY26xdHg4BXJ/s320/IMG_5324.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5145322156340822738" border="0" /></a>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-2452931081756692212007-12-07T09:19:00.000-05:002008-11-13T13:13:50.840-05:00Our Shining Star!<a style="font-family: georgia; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6lfRFh7GYUeYoxUrjIn1nYSRxdBTl0oHqTKEmo23f0sF1FPE_a2T6H4rjM7XuoEniNkD190KE3sU31zj35NWH1QmePVMgdCj4Zq0pTDrhhEgjgpsQaCI4rjTKg54psQ3NfXQnXXc9WGMJ/s1600-h/IMG_5243.JPG">On Tuesday night Mary Claire had her Christmas Program for preschool. I was so excited to see her perform with her little class. In my heart I thought that she might not do it....especially since she was crying when we left her with her teacher. Much to mine and Wayne's surprise she sat with her class the entire time and sang her heart out. I have to say that I felt such pride for her. I was so proud of her bravery....I really think she is so brave to leave her mom and dad at such a tender age and participate in a class setting. She is the youngest in her class but you would never know it.

However, we pushed through and let Mary Claire pick out the most beautiful tree we have ever had. I think it stands almost 12 feet high and it really looks amazing in our living room. Here are some pictures of us decorating it....we had some help from Mee (Mary Claire's grandmother), Aunt Kim, Uncle Nathan, and Emma. Laurel could not participate in the festivities...she wanted to sleep instead....maybe next year. Mary Claire had an absolute blast and it was precious to see her so excited and participating so much. I know that with each coming year it will become more and more fun to watch her enthusiasm and to have a hand in teaching her the real meaning of Christmas.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwLRiKSVeP-HiexbiSMIV9reZa-5_89BPN_n76-u1NCzX44ecVN9VF5n6Lck4XzHjxFvOxblc9tntMZe8VaFdOv9lB8hF9-fUUTOcljYpewV5ZXr-tTU8chJBJiUQZfauBVajbWwbzAJYw/s1600-r/IMG_5132.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij0EPdLopT6t4vnp0gCc_qrvkiVW8SBg12ibL-KbWSkVaA6XD2T7WAc_yDiYpFUQdgG6yQEL9BjL6f2pGs4FjnHPJf-lloTcXXoNI5ugQ0u739ecXmpv2guiz-ctuU39mDjOjP4l0PpJ83/s320/IMG_5132.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138457275779603890" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhp8iqP5ZntBdvmOPkZM726p4r5TRghF33fh_l3Pr66pRuBoahnrQYlHGBcoCdAUc1NDaP8SrPGGJbkC-zuWtroLGGYoknz7wpS1u4vuSBmztGXIuIPHfY-3hWhVQd3OCZTjN3TQ95mruJ/s1600-r/IMG_5131.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvjw9JPVCrzLgcOpbGtUhiap1oab0CR-QAMXNl8ZBNpoZg1EuwOf7YUWKQI1dwwtaRWRWS_veyYAOL3eU3pNAn46vaF4M339ZPi8a9pVXHf6jhaNE5ibC2iF0L3MTOscMKZ_OSiZgMXs1t/s320/IMG_5131.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138457288664505794" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9x6Mdyi2segVlcBdolZzhzSth7wyfJxdmzJoqaOZtrzZClwEpreTwqnFAal6JwV16qHHUpgeFR_Y9VG_JlDIxJJqMCM1WDJrKVCTscYisAJ6WXuiTnjJFnxaWLtXvfiwnejBBOwVjT3q8/s1600-r/IMG_5120.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgb-VHpWMxqy3mxoOFAsRDtpkOtibRh71On2peDjN3siEpK3rprXWv6WhQlxg9TwAE-ffKcQHTQ8Wlm23P8UFAKOysUicF8DbLkxxDsbjxgcj25YwLSDkCgI4mBl01j9Z5vhixmwF2Ryt4n/s320/IMG_5120.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138457318729276882" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8_qL5H2gTo3mlKfyf6D34c2yFnW8tW4Ssz6CFvDdjrr51zUVRNX-Z8P-wffbjKoM-6gVXYbFAtGmyAtd00y2KZcsvRxnb1LRqoHYzODNjnZ8QXE4INqg5I-aVb-IhpkQsc7CXxHHsEzRU/s1600-r/IMG_5125.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu0IwvCQ2FbY9YSjInbpZDkFzODwDvW-wR_8ZSdj614r4UdplZ5-ZbpDldCUh_niP_bY_HqNgCP5DxZ2nZ_nj1bfJZqlAzNWMR0O5nBL7JvCdEapVkQiYy-SRl0FCSvcyPPp05Ka6gKE7M/s320/IMG_5125.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138457331614178786" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC6qsEij-LRsZ3H6kumUccRsyb7XO_RVfEAByso2uoET-SWSRVCVnAWcC1aNEjXy4saCeMLQ9_SiOw9L-szW-_9_13rUoSyVsbbho6OVLiknv_6G9zFZ-0K4Om8Z5CU7xDMT1NUXgsugiw/s1600-r/IMG_5130.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3Fy97NY5PHLRD6CSs5XQHH3C-uL9jTWgFLc4jChQCKyWPgAb-6uvE1oYr5ltg5ZVId4HZJx5J7rZ4OaPfEWW_my6v6QuPJjVoBucSFg9IkKx05jEGehD626yaRWavysmGHDVutsBMr6kg/s320/IMG_5130.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138457370268884466" border="0" /></a>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-17497915928247400192007-11-29T10:14:00.000-05:002007-11-29T21:28:55.781-05:00I WISH I WAS THE DOG.......As you probably have noticed...it has been awhile since I have updated my blog. I have been inundated with sick people and the holidays. I am not sure why but for some reason these go hand in hand since having babies.<br /><br />It all started on November 16th when Wayne went to his much anticipated vet visit. Of course we knew this is what we wanted. We are done having children...God has given us the most beautiful little girls that anyone could ask for. There is still that lingering thought in the back of your head.....saying........are you SURE?!?! Let's just say that any uncertainties that I might have had are GONE....I'll explain.........<br /><br />So I accompany Wayne to his visit and he is a nervous wreck....which makes me a nervous wreck for him. After all they are going to be cutting around his most prized possession. Even though I know logically that he will be fine. I mean honestly I have given birth to two children (one without drugs) and I am fine. My anatomy will NEVER be the same so surely a little snip/snip should be a breeze. So to make this short Wayne has the procedure and YES everything is still intact and working properly!!!<br /><br />So that night...I am crawling into bed feeling glad that this day is almost over and that we can quit worrying about the vasectomy. Now all I have to do is make it through the weekend and make sure that Wayne gets his rest....which should be relatively easy since his parent's are staying with us to help me out. WRONG!!!<br /><br />At 11:45p Laurel (our baby who is such a good sleeper) wakes up screaming and proceeds to scream off and on until 4a when I finally laid down with her on the couch. She has gotten an awful stomach virus which I know is going to spread like wildfire in our home. Great this is all I need for Wayne to get....since like most men ....is a HUGE baby when sick.<br /><br />The next morning I was a zombie but I had told Wayne that he could get the new XBox Elite so off to Best Buy I went with my brother in law since he knows more about this thing than me. I got a gift for each child so we agreed that it was only right for Wayne to get one as well....although I think that he got the better end of the deal. I had to endure an intense labor and almost 9 months with both of our babies but a deal is a deal. So Nathan and I buy the XBox and we get to the car and you will never believe this.......I tried to kill myself with the car door. I do not even remember how I manged it exactly but I whacked myself right in the head. I have never seen a goose egg on an adult's head like that ever. Today I still have a big green bruise on my forehead.<br /><br />So we get home and Laurel is still very fussy and not feeling well and is experiencing everything that goes with the stomach virus. Mary Claire has a really nasty cold and Wayne is in bed playing video games. My in-laws are helping out where they can but when your babies are sick they want their mama. Laurel continued to wake up in the night for the next week and I continued to get up with her.<br /><br />The following Monday my in-laws where scheduled to go home. My Mother-in-law had gotten an awful sinus infection from Mary Claire and was now sick herself. Wayne had decided to work from home and help me out some because I had now gotten the stomach virus. The in-laws left and I crawled into bed with Mary Claire who was wanting to be right by my side and I thought might as well the sooner you get this the better so we can be well for Thanksgiving. By 2p Mary Claire had spiked a fever of 103 and I called the Dr.........I knew that it was probably viral but I had to take her in to be certain because the holiday was right around the corner and I knew the offices would be closed. So I load her up and fight back vomiting the whole way. Wayne stayed at home with Laurel who still had the virus. It was viral like I thought so home we came. She got the stomach virus the next day!!!<br /><br />That night I looked at Cagney all curled up in bed and I thought..........I wish I were you! It must be nice to sleep all day, have someone feed you even if it is the same thing over and over, fart and not be embarrassed, get lots of rubs, and to not have to bathe everyday and still have my hair that shiny. I think that I could even handle licking my own butt if it meant that I could quit dealing with everyone else's.<br /><br />Needless to say we all managed to get well for Thanksgiving and Wayne actually waited until Sunday night to get the stomach bug! There was a huge dining room fiasco during this whole thing but that is for another blog entirely.The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-30643155200896661912007-11-09T09:05:00.001-05:002007-11-09T14:47:29.965-05:00She Got The Moves.....Wayne and I have always listened to music when we hang out around the house. So it is not a surprise that our girls love to sing and dance. Mary Claire sings all the time and it is so cute because she just sings her heart out and does not even know the words. She is definitely a product of her environment. As you can see from the clip below she has the moves at a very early age. Of course Wayne and I think this is adorable.....and you have to love the PINK panties that we were insistent on wearing today.....wonder how long that will last.....pretty sure it is going to be a long day!!! ;)<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzf0WcetdCtyMKD2U3-4Y_rnD4keozfKERDF8WfF1P0Brk2ibJaO_Fk9z1_vX50-b-mXXYkQM5lI5d3WfNjTw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-82649077047181638502007-11-04T13:59:00.000-05:002007-11-04T15:29:45.348-05:00Georgia Aquarium<div>Yesterday we took the girls to the Georgia Aquarium where they had a great time. We spent the whole day looking at different fish, whales, seals, otters, and more. Wayne and I had a great time with the girls and we cannot wait to do more family outings as they get older....maybe we can take them to the zoo before the weather gets too cold.<br /><br /><embed src="http://widget-66.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=936748722493148006&site=widget-66.slide.com" style="width: 400px; height: 320px;" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width: 400px; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&ad=0&id=936748722493148006&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-66.slide.com/p1/936748722493148006/bb_t001_v000_a000_f00/images/xslide1.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&ad=0&id=936748722493148006&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-66.slide.com/p2/936748722493148006/bb_t001_v000_a000_f00/images/xslide2.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0" /></a></div></div>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-62815534454714862182007-11-01T20:02:00.000-04:002008-11-13T13:13:52.659-05:00A New BlankieLaurel received the sweetest blanket today from Aunt Brenda in MS. We immediately washed it so that she could use it tonight. The blanket came at just the right time...we have been trying to figure out what we were going to use this winter because Laurel does not stay covered up in the night. She is such the wiggle worm and the small baby blankets just do not cut it anymore. I think that Laurel loves her new blanket. The blanket definitely makes for a very happy baby...see for yourself.......<br /><br />Thanks Aunt Brenda it is Perfect!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirVOa2mm1dpmyhI3UDQqv1JaoY6HhX3i39yXAq4jzuY02M4c55VycKlh3lemyDErPBd9DLalMSt7333oAcVL7J5DgV67GJhz7qjQrZtfgWHU-dHwvGFYaWxeV68tNKkZyIqyNtNeaM8Ghb/s1600-h/IMG_4916.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirVOa2mm1dpmyhI3UDQqv1JaoY6HhX3i39yXAq4jzuY02M4c55VycKlh3lemyDErPBd9DLalMSt7333oAcVL7J5DgV67GJhz7qjQrZtfgWHU-dHwvGFYaWxeV68tNKkZyIqyNtNeaM8Ghb/s320/IMG_4916.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5128027821116586226" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Sweet Dreams...Angel Baby<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhco_m2s98F4MuA85xhkIBErdVSBY3zcMqNBH_7aTe-Ee0GE9sngfOJxWhO8dM2aLoSgJ5aSk6VcWT4YQSSL6i3tpjzfJQzw6Yhu8uzXmBIVeO8M1iLtMzBlgKcbR8GB0Cyf5qiufqjY4QK/s1600-h/IMG_4921.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhco_m2s98F4MuA85xhkIBErdVSBY3zcMqNBH_7aTe-Ee0GE9sngfOJxWhO8dM2aLoSgJ5aSk6VcWT4YQSSL6i3tpjzfJQzw6Yhu8uzXmBIVeO8M1iLtMzBlgKcbR8GB0Cyf5qiufqjY4QK/s320/IMG_4921.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5128027825411553554" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Nice and Cozy Tonight<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNL3l28dK3cqdC95SmeS9Tego0Qm2VHxIFD51CbAaKZHjzHktDu-OFDMGLKwWTja3vZ5VgPx3-Jj4BWroz04aFyYFyREmoDl0ZSntP_xzFps4WbJslqC832rQH-X6X2A7qg4v987dVroGZ/s1600-h/IMG_4918.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNL3l28dK3cqdC95SmeS9Tego0Qm2VHxIFD51CbAaKZHjzHktDu-OFDMGLKwWTja3vZ5VgPx3-Jj4BWroz04aFyYFyREmoDl0ZSntP_xzFps4WbJslqC832rQH-X6X2A7qg4v987dVroGZ/s320/IMG_4918.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5128027821116586242" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Lights Out.....................<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLYnqgoiAf7yOvVczVyhUODpO_lnwVHvlxOWF-k_qo7chGpnyT4NCu0-HhG5lTzKc5fahnx0P6nNcfXHkeB6ALgvPLJnRHz0otKyJBZvLbHVLW-nDjYwLtn4dt4JZUZ7mH4BDWhP1bFrQU/s1600-h/IMG_4923.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLYnqgoiAf7yOvVczVyhUODpO_lnwVHvlxOWF-k_qo7chGpnyT4NCu0-HhG5lTzKc5fahnx0P6nNcfXHkeB6ALgvPLJnRHz0otKyJBZvLbHVLW-nDjYwLtn4dt4JZUZ7mH4BDWhP1bFrQU/s320/IMG_4923.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5128027829706520866" border="0" /></a>The Overstreet'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846193344803129979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909338119589027729.post-3476514726241382722007-11-01T14:47:00.000-04:002008-11-13T13:13:53.029-05:00Our First Field TripToday Mary Claire and I went to Kinsey Farms (a tree farm) for her first field trip. We went on a hayride, fed the fish, heard a story, planted a tree, and had a picnic. Not sure it is a good idea to take a toddler on an early morning field trip after a late night of trick or treating. I know we all have those moments when we wonder what happened to our child. Well today was definitely one of those days....Mary Claire threw several tantrums. I got several looks...you know the ones where all the moms are thanking their lucky stars that it is your child and not theirs. Those sympathetic looks you get but you know they are glad it is you and not them. Needless to say that we came home and Mary Claire is now down for a nap and I am wondering if it is too early for a cocktail.

Mary Claire enjoyed trick or treating so much that she could not carry her bag by the end of the night...she had gotten way too many treats. She preferred suckers for some reason but was happy to accept chocolate as well. I am surprised she did not have a tummy ache from all the treats. Laurel was happy to go along for the golf cart ride through the neighborhood until her bedtime, but Mary Claire was in no mood to stop. Her Dad and Uncle Nate took her out and she trick or treated for almost a whole hour. I thought that she would be tired out but it only wound her up more.

We knew that we would be trying our luck if we waited until Halloween night because they probably would not cooperate. Mary Claire will most definitely be too excited at the aspect of trick or treating and since it will be late Laurel will be ready for bed. I think that we got some pictures that are really cute.
