Big girl cup


So I started thinking back and I was thinking that by 6 months Ellie was drinking out of a sippy cup so I got one for Annie to try and she did great! She loves it and now whenever she sees it she starts doing a happy, excited dance for it! She is such a silly little bit.

PJ Day


Ellie was excited and a little confused about her pj day at school.
I kept telling her that she was going to wear her pjs to school and she was excited but when it came time to get dressed and we put her pjs on she kept asking me if it was ok....
I thought she looked super sweet in her monkey gown.

Devo


Annie decided to "take in" the Word with her Dad in his morning devo time.

Love

 We just finished Crazy Love by Francis Chan is our small group study.
It was a great book and has really helped me with many things I struggle with. If you hadn't read it...
YOU SHOULD!
I saw this quote and wanted to share...


Chattanooga

We didn't have anything planned for this weekend so we made a quick overnight trip to Chattanooga.
We didn't go to the aquarium this time since we had just been to it in the Fall but we did do some other fun stuff. 

When we got there we went to the Incline Railway...which was a train that took you straight up the mountain. Ellie loved it!
Once we got to the top of the mountain we walked around and visited an old battleground and lookout mountain. Then we rode the train back down.
We headed to downtown Chattanooga to check int the hotel. 
We ate at a really good place that night for supper and got ice cream and headed back to the hotel.
The next morning Matt took the girls down to swim and eat and let me sleep! Yay!
We got ready and went to the Children's Museum. It was smaller but still fun!
Then we got some lunch at a place called Sing it or Wing it....I know sounds like fun....
And went up to Ruby Falls. The walk was long to see the Falls but it was really pretty and Ellie really enjoyed it.
On the way home we went through Scotsborro to see the unclaimed baggage store, I had never been there and have been wanting to go. There was a lot of stuff there and I'm sure you could have found some goodies if you had the time but Ellie and Annie were over it so we left out and headed home.
We made it home and actually had both of the girls in bed by about 7!!

Here are some pictures from our trip...
