Better Late Than Never!

    I have so much to catch up on... So here we go!
 
   We all got to fly together to our new home in Lexington, SC! Originally Drew was supposed to be driving our car down while the kids and I flew down. Our car completely died on us and it'd be cheaper for us to just donate it than to fix it. Plus it happened like 5 days before leaving. Luckily it happened when it did because we had packed it up with stuff and the movers were able to just pack it with everything else. We were also blessed to have Drew fly with us, because everything that could go wrong that day did! We ended up flying in to Charlotte instead of Columbia and then had to end up driving to Columbia to pick up our luggage.. It was a complete mess!
    We had a small Christmas in our new place and were able to drive down to my parents' house that evening.
    The Saturday before my birthday, Drew and Andrew went to the mall while Lillian and I stayed home. They got me some nice lotions and bath wash at Bath And Body Works. Drew asked me if I could go anywhere for my birthday where would I go. I tried to keep it as local as possible, so I said, "The beach." And then a few days past and he then asked if I would like to go and see my Grandma in Florida. I jumped all over the offer! So we enjoyed the 6th-9th with Grandma. She also enjoyed the visit.
    Well the new year came and that meant time for Andrew to move from nursery to primary! He loves it so much! Last Sunday was only his second Sunday in Primary and they sent him home with a paper saying they wanted him to give a talk the following Sunday! So tomorrow my little boy will be giving his very first talk in church!! Drew got a call this week asking if he'd be a fill in and talk in Sacrament for someone else who could not make it. So both Drew & Andrew will be speaking in church tomorrow!
    I know I am so late with potty training Andrew but in between the move and it being so cold in North Dakota, it was so hard. I was thinking on the way home from Florida, "Holy Cow! Andrew will be 4 in March! I need to get him using the potty!!" So, the day after we got home I got right on it! He did just fine and even walked right into bathroom without my help and did a #2!! And then he comes to me and says, "Mama, Mama! Come here I have a surprise for you!!" haha.
   Lillian still has not cut any teeth yet but you can tell that her gums are bothering her a bit. She hasn't started crawling yet but I do not think it will be much longer til she does. She will lay on her tummy and roll to her back then tummy again and turn then roll some more. That has been her cute way of getting around.
