Lulie turned 3 this week and I couldn't be more happy with the life of this child. She had a great time at her birthday party and on her actual birthday we just had pizza and opened gifts. She is such an easy going child, most of the time, that it really didn't seem that big of a deal to her. In fact, when people would tell her Happy Birthday, she would tell them Happy Birthday back. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lulie is a joy to have around the house and although 85% of the time she would like to watch TV or have me hold her, she is still fun. She likes to yell for her sister, "Saddie Rose", and she does love to pester her. She is the child that will throw a remote at Sallie Rose and then the next minute she is right by her side kissing her boo boo. She doesn't quite understand that she is the reason for almost all of Sallie Rose's boo boos. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
She has FINALLY started pooping on the potty and just this week started sleeping in a big girl bed. She did the big girl bed on her own, but the pooping on the potty was a full on cry fest. We did it though! And today at the grocery store, I loved every second of not having to pay $25 for diapers. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lulie has to have a hug and a kiss every time I leave her. Whether it is at bed time (after I have rocked her for 20 minutes), dropping her off at school/church or when I leave for work in the morning. It is a joy to me and her love couldn't be more sincere. She is a lover. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Happy Birthday to the child who looks just like my sister, Tara, and who screams every morning at 6:30 am for her Daddy and who wears a dress almost every outfit!</div>

I really want to try and document what is going in with the girls, in a brief format. <div><br></div><div>We went out of town for one night to Atlanta. Lulie got sick on the way and ended up having a fever and vomiting a few times. We call it our traveling curse. Every time we travel, she gets sick. She hasnt been sick in months and we get on the road and she gets sick. Poor girl. No one tell her we are going to charleston for one night in 2 weeks so hopefully she won't get sick. </div><div><br></div><div>She really cracks us up though. She say some pretty cute things and that's what I want to document. </div><div><br></div><div>Going to school last week I gave her a chocolate chip granola bar.</div><div><br></div><div>Me: Lulie are you eating your granola bar?</div><div>Lulie: yes, mommy you want bite?</div><div>Me: no thank you, that's sweet though.</div><div>I turn around to look at her at a red light and she is picking out all the chocolate Chips and eating them.</div><div>Me: Lulie, you need to eat the whole bar not just the chocolate chips.</div><div>Lulie: but mommy, I'm really really hungry for tiny Hershey kisses.</div><div><br></div><div>After that I couldn't say anything. It's usually the same thing when I tell her to stop eating her boogies. "But mommy, I'm really really hungry for my boogers." Yuck! </div><div><br></div><div>Next I'll explain how she feels about pointing out everyone's giant vaginas. Another night.</div>Cassie Butt Beckwithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11918792350952578641noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244435685244069950.post-6642391964239976432014-02-25T18:58:00.001-05:002014-02-25T18:58:31.421-05:00Update on girls<div><br></div>I have been sick and in bed all day with a sinus infection. I have the Urban Hope event on Friday and am praying to feel better.<div><br></div><div>As I lay in bed, I hear the girls downstairs. Lulie is saying all sorts of phrases and basically copies anything her sister says. Her favorites are ta-da, nana nana boo boo, and dere it is (when she finds something). She also loves to play hide and seek with Sallie Rose and counts to 10 while covering her eyes. She usually misses 6 or 7. She's also into throwing tantrums and biting at school. She will admit to it when I pick her up. I'll say Lulie did you bite a friend? "Yes". Did you say I'm sorry? "Yes" and looks sad. She does always say sorry and gives a hug when she hits Sallie. She's a sweet girl and she is funny in her own little shy way. It is good to note that she does say yes and not yeah. That will make her Grumpy happy.</div><div><br></div><div>Sallie Rose has been unbelievably sweet this last week. Doing what she's told, being so nice to her sister, and helping us out. She changed Lulie's diaper this morning. She is doing great in school and seems to enjoy it. She loves to make books at home with all her words she knows how to spell. She made me a card Saturday that said "to Mommy you are awsom". She wants to take piano lessons this spring and loves church choir. </div><div><br></div><div>And they both love to be outside, riding bikes, and sweets.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>Cassie Butt Beckwithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11918792350952578641noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244435685244069950.post-62086524117539576282014-02-22T20:38:00.001-05:002014-02-22T20:38:44.619-05:00Momma has been busy<div>I have been extremely busy at the JOB and planning the Urban Hope event, but I still enjoy every second with these two.</div><div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-dEO_s0B0hrzEBpE3_25C-9rDs1ppdauihl-BwXuObNvqTqXfLLLl6x8NV7OLrfDw9KkVH5z9-e9NVB2Svczuz9dzBw7Pl67Je5kRJMtzbzcyLMcOs17ZCDwcPGaYKpEHSKdGU62FsLPu/s640/blogger-image-1818330180.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-dEO_s0B0hrzEBpE3_25C-9rDs1ppdauihl-BwXuObNvqTqXfLLLl6x8NV7OLrfDw9KkVH5z9-e9NVB2Svczuz9dzBw7Pl67Je5kRJMtzbzcyLMcOs17ZCDwcPGaYKpEHSKdGU62FsLPu/s640/blogger-image-1818330180.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Out on Nana's dock</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqHfY6s64O7Aim5H7LS2yIGmLBHpkdFPZ5XdTUns9WeeRMWwkue-WfLd6jpZP5NDqI2aKCu-T2Hugl8wUU1RL_HMQOdMbKG42hUIdVI_t2ZzhAf_iLFMGB3xnuomuCX7YAeS3TXXMPO1mS/s640/blogger-image-1143235527.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqHfY6s64O7Aim5H7LS2yIGmLBHpkdFPZ5XdTUns9WeeRMWwkue-WfLd6jpZP5NDqI2aKCu-T2Hugl8wUU1RL_HMQOdMbKG42hUIdVI_t2ZzhAf_iLFMGB3xnuomuCX7YAeS3TXXMPO1mS/s640/blogger-image-1143235527.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Lulie wearing sissy's panties over her pajamas.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq-8-GtHDsBelO3rJZ_idr94jz7FyeLRQpokhQRzlMBa-PwC9A_1bItEtWLNP3iI1Ru4Qp20su1KK9Rh2iWs_ABt4xt63ymoP0j4QlyeGQkHw5PzhnpRB7MChH-cstas19DqbKE3D3_W1W/s640/blogger-image--1275268915.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq-8-GtHDsBelO3rJZ_idr94jz7FyeLRQpokhQRzlMBa-PwC9A_1bItEtWLNP3iI1Ru4Qp20su1KK9Rh2iWs_ABt4xt63ymoP0j4QlyeGQkHw5PzhnpRB7MChH-cstas19DqbKE3D3_W1W/s640/blogger-image--1275268915.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Lulie waiting on her bite of ice cream.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg05hyphenhyphen6fkt5I7t_NNZa9wLfis8jNTIOf0otdrPXYpvKiTyjz6MXSRngQeNuDnO7hRhO5qg0cEdYS-80MJvaiLEPcx9j08YIOTeGvKi3BzlOHWKSWfTqZbdvd2c6FBzmfJsX87uJ1Pw4Qf2_/s640/blogger-image--428407485.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg05hyphenhyphen6fkt5I7t_NNZa9wLfis8jNTIOf0otdrPXYpvKiTyjz6MXSRngQeNuDnO7hRhO5qg0cEdYS-80MJvaiLEPcx9j08YIOTeGvKi3BzlOHWKSWfTqZbdvd2c6FBzmfJsX87uJ1Pw4Qf2_/s640/blogger-image--428407485.jpg"></a></div>Cassie Butt Beckwithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11918792350952578641noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244435685244069950.post-69115165297512554682013-12-15T21:59:00.001-05:002013-12-15T21:59:42.833-05:00My kidsEach year as Christmas approaches, I get so emotional for a number of reasons. I miss my Grandma this time more than ever. I miss going to Spearman to drive her around looking at lights. I also feel so blessed to have my kids, husband, family, and health. We struggle each year at this time to make our finances work, not because we spend hundreds on our kids for Christmas presents, but quite the opposite. I try to keep our gift giving low and really try to remind them and myself that Christmas is the anticipation of waiting on Christ. <br />
<br />
We go to our beautiful Church for Christmas Eve service and as I'm so overwhelmed with love for my kids, I am also so sad to be so far from the family I love so much. I am so grateful to get to fly to see them all after Christmas but I can't help but be sad that they can't see my kids singing in their Christmas programs or going to visit Santa. It's all through photos and videos and I am grateful for those too.<br />
<br />
My kids are individually unique and I love them so much. Sallie Rose is kind and silly, but can turn the switch in a second. She also has to get completely undressed to go the the bathroom. I have also convinced her that she needs hearing aids for Christmas. Lulie on the other hand is thoughtful and quite the clown. She doesn't mean to be funny, but when she figures out she is, she never stops. She is rambunctious and energetic. I caught her the other day giving our baby Jesus from our nativity scene one of her pacifiers. I almost melted right there. <br />
<br />
Thank you God for my children, for my family that I love so much it hurts that I miss them and for the emotional feelings to be embarrassed about. And thank you for sending your son to us. <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5G4V31awvdR0S9Sz2HY6Tz4_fC4YQvyx3P_otEJm_uvoJpATShuSWBgYtT9lRJ9zMszLz5i7dfzlnLsbotG8lFPK73Et6duxtyPSysTORlSyeOSglwCgP7jAak5mY3ur0SOClR6QB9ABp/s640/blogger-image--129977095.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5G4V31awvdR0S9Sz2HY6Tz4_fC4YQvyx3P_otEJm_uvoJpATShuSWBgYtT9lRJ9zMszLz5i7dfzlnLsbotG8lFPK73Et6duxtyPSysTORlSyeOSglwCgP7jAak5mY3ur0SOClR6QB9ABp/s640/blogger-image--129977095.jpg" /></a></div> <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbfOZIivM2RdczwPbKki0kuTUWruybijcAC2LDjjYHwhmWAVHXLOCepVPVw-qdGKgS9SAPlY6y1I_ZwU1dv3Y0o7WIzXpfkduYcWmXgimp1xWwHWw2x2kyKJY_k0WNLjvUu3e3u6nOld6e/s640/blogger-image--1490881822.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbfOZIivM2RdczwPbKki0kuTUWruybijcAC2LDjjYHwhmWAVHXLOCepVPVw-qdGKgS9SAPlY6y1I_ZwU1dv3Y0o7WIzXpfkduYcWmXgimp1xWwHWw2x2kyKJY_k0WNLjvUu3e3u6nOld6e/s640/blogger-image--1490881822.jpg" /></a></div> <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhMFsSWltWB-lXzFJUi4vwINS5dvER9ObThyphenhyphenxUZ0Nc5bWiRWWPqWuxgdhOdRKNOz-PQDHbou5KmH3u6L1WEWOH6f86yuSZgKzyl6WLAL4zrrkGqzcflLtjwI6XQXk4w2fsmg8sRC4Gg2eh/s640/blogger-image-897635483.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhMFsSWltWB-lXzFJUi4vwINS5dvER9ObThyphenhyphenxUZ0Nc5bWiRWWPqWuxgdhOdRKNOz-PQDHbou5KmH3u6L1WEWOH6f86yuSZgKzyl6WLAL4zrrkGqzcflLtjwI6XQXk4w2fsmg8sRC4Gg2eh/s640/blogger-image-897635483.jpg" /></a></div>Cassie Butt Beckwithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11918792350952578641noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244435685244069950.post-41939341606138138732013-11-19T14:35:00.001-05:002013-11-19T14:35:08.561-05:00LulieThere is something about this child.

She has been sick every 2 weeks for the last 2 months. I am not sure what is going on. Lulie hasn't been getting all the illnesses so that's a relief. Between my new job and school starting, we have been busy. When we do have down time at home, I love watching these girls play and love on each other.<br />
<br />
We are hoping to surprise Sallie Rose with a trip to Disney for her 5th birthday, but we haven't made any final plans yet. It's hard to plan a trip when she's been sick so often. I hope that we can do it and I hope she loves it! I can't believe she will be 5. <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTkoLER5dDSCnU1L0GQz8XnCkdJ1LqbApqgSDUHQKfP4qE1xMMzPTHMy6YYFdMpskQxKzjRk_xsopwDCKTPCFm50ITUCEZQRF0fy1cHsGzk6eL5KuGFTs_W0clG6XzCg3AGs6G5AxOCyzc/s640/blogger-image-1711453522.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTkoLER5dDSCnU1L0GQz8XnCkdJ1LqbApqgSDUHQKfP4qE1xMMzPTHMy6YYFdMpskQxKzjRk_xsopwDCKTPCFm50ITUCEZQRF0fy1cHsGzk6eL5KuGFTs_W0clG6XzCg3AGs6G5AxOCyzc/s640/blogger-image-1711453522.jpg" /></a></div> <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhn3ODrwybnmW_iimhQPoc4al_Jv3V_lfLZ-smMWerQ-6-b71DT5ZoYJ2FIEMkEQ1QVuo49PhnwWTAGYGek4shfkxoH3e7vcV_VgcqARqC8bYaa5PvnmFS2XwOQHVgULPO3R-yX8cG_fqJW/s640/blogger-image-191613544.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhn3ODrwybnmW_iimhQPoc4al_Jv3V_lfLZ-smMWerQ-6-b71DT5ZoYJ2FIEMkEQ1QVuo49PhnwWTAGYGek4shfkxoH3e7vcV_VgcqARqC8bYaa5PvnmFS2XwOQHVgULPO3R-yX8cG_fqJW/s640/blogger-image-191613544.jpg" /></a></div> <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh70_NP2U4orklIFdiJds7u5Ki7hNz1CZA3LasQVVyDwkwZZsU7-wIDAWxBMEu4t9tk2fD-Mpqwq8SlxAgEtoLeFHP7Z2LaCQiTn4P89VTsABG6JZW4-r6IkXS2sv_IzC5Ve3Oy2I44v7Yh/s640/blogger-image-579286044.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh70_NP2U4orklIFdiJds7u5Ki7hNz1CZA3LasQVVyDwkwZZsU7-wIDAWxBMEu4t9tk2fD-Mpqwq8SlxAgEtoLeFHP7Z2LaCQiTn4P89VTsABG6JZW4-r6IkXS2sv_IzC5Ve3Oy2I44v7Yh/s640/blogger-image-579286044.jpg" /></a></div> <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz4x15n6TuFdJDzndxyRQSAxBEBCDEwyWJ7YsZfqBx5zU7-w0v6pKwNsXjmQNb0bvOHuF2lBxcDm0jp1Ib7Oo8fEoPEfF_X4Tf4M4CTDAiO1035hdJHJOQp33W1cdJ-N9WG7GGWuhX_xER/s640/blogger-image-359172204.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz4x15n6TuFdJDzndxyRQSAxBEBCDEwyWJ7YsZfqBx5zU7-w0v6pKwNsXjmQNb0bvOHuF2lBxcDm0jp1Ib7Oo8fEoPEfF_X4Tf4M4CTDAiO1035hdJHJOQp33W1cdJ-N9WG7GGWuhX_xER/s640/blogger-image-359172204.jpg" /></a></div> <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1vIsWjXuURu0OdNJNd38o5Gr5XCk1UdAt7lqFoGnl5uByO0pzNSXdtZpkTDdH4EB1QYOeVUgP53Hou9TruZlmaM4LuVAHnFid0wc0X6WafK_s8EUJjT3NQgxMB1H6J86xUzdfmQ9D9c5G/s640/blogger-image--394576291.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1vIsWjXuURu0OdNJNd38o5Gr5XCk1UdAt7lqFoGnl5uByO0pzNSXdtZpkTDdH4EB1QYOeVUgP53Hou9TruZlmaM4LuVAHnFid0wc0X6WafK_s8EUJjT3NQgxMB1H6J86xUzdfmQ9D9c5G/s640/blogger-image--394576291.jpg" /></a></div>Cassie Butt Beckwithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11918792350952578641noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244435685244069950.post-48989055056814123952013-09-21T21:22:00.001-04:002013-09-21T21:22:28.205-04:00Sick weekendWe started yesterday afternoon with Lulie having a fever and throwing up once. She just wanted to be held all afternoon, which I enjoyed. Then I went to bed last night with a sore throat and feeling feverish. I woke up this morning not feeling great, but not terrible. We managed to make 1 of the 2 birthday parties we had today, but by the time we got home from party 1 I was a lot worse.<br />
<br />
Kevin is working the rentals this weekend, I'll spare the dramatic story there, and he finally got home at 4. I went to cvs's minute clinic and when I got home Sallie Rose looked terrible. I could tell she had a fever, although she didn't feel bad. So, I gave her Motrin and let her lay in bed and watch a movie on my iPad. We are now all in bed and hope everyone is well tomorrow. I really don't like spending our weekend family time being sick. We did manage to have some good moments. Actually both girls have been so good today. <br />

She is at her 2nd day of school and she was very excited to be going back today. I was very nervous and very worried about her that first day. Not only were none of her best friends from preschool going to be there, but there are only 2 other girls in her class. When I picked her up that first day, she was in a great mood and very happy. We went and got a cupcake to celebrate and then we went home and she immediately went to sleep. </span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Today, she is staying until 4:00 pm to have rest time there and get to play for an additional hour. I made her a nap mat just so she could stay later with her friends. I hope she enjoys it!</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here she is on her first day:</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next week, I will begin my new job. I am so grateful to have had this week off to get Sallie Rose started in her new school and also spend some alone time with Lulie. Lulie and I never are alone and I really do feel like I need alone time with both of my girls to be able to connect with them each. They are so great together, but they are also so different alone. </span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Lulie and I have not done much, but we have played some and went for a bike ride and she rode in the I-bert seat, which she loved. I had this when Sallie Rose was little and we loved taking bike rides. I love getting to spend some time with my girls, but I am ready to get to work!</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana;">Here is Lulie on our bike ride and wearing her sister's dress while she is at school. I had to pry the dress off of her. </span><br />

text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Over the past month, Lulie has transformed into a little ball of personality. I wish that I could follow her around all day and video her so that I could truly capture her little personality. When Sallie Rose was 1 year old, she was sweet and quiet and a little reserved. She was also very Mommy oriented and didn't really like anyone else holding her. Then she turned 3 and everything changed. She has become a sweet girl again and she is super smart and very loving, most of the time. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Lulie is something else, for a lack of better words. She is sweet and loving, but she is also so mischievous and daring. The child has to put her hands on everything that comes into her view. She wants to touch and explore every little thing. She is going to be an engineer of some sort! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">She is also very funny and loves to be silly. She still loves to laugh when everyone else starts laughing, even when she has no idea what she is laughing about. She smiles every time that Sallie Rose walks in the room and she loves for Sallie Rose to squeeze her hard and give her so much love. I always tell Sallie Rose that her love hurts. She loves her to pain. And Lulie loves that! You can see an example of the love hurts hugs in the first picture. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">This weekend we took the girls to Hilton Head Island, just to get away for one day. It was fun and it was a bit relaxing; however, Lulie is so adventurous that it got a little tiring following her around to make sure she didn't jump into the deep end of the pool or walk straight into the Atlantic Ocean. She also wanted to tear apart every piece of our hotel. She wanted to touch every lamp and open every door. She is so curious. We called her the "tiny destroyer". The tiny destroyer has also started throwing some major temper tantrums when she doesn't get her way and let me tell you she is strong and strong willed. It takes real strength to get her to not claw your face off or hurt herself by throwing herself out of your arms. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">On the other hand, she is also really easy going, although it doesn't sound like it. She has a way of attracting people to her and when they get their eyes on her, she stops, looks at the person and then gives the sweetest, gap toothed grin you have ever seen. Then, they fall head over heels for her. I can't tell you how many people stopped me this weekend and told me how adorable she was. I joked to Kevin that her fan club was meeting in the lobby of the hotel to see her off on Sunday. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">She has also become very Momma oriented. I would imagine that she says Momma 100 times in 5 minutes. She will be completely fine with Susan or Daddy and then the moment I walk in the door, she wants to be held and if she is not held by me, she just repeats Momma over and over. Cute and persistent. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">She really makes us laugh all the time and we are always on our toes about what she will do next. Lulie has changed her sister's life so much that I could not have ever imagined. They adore each other and are really great together. They both are the light of my life and I am truly blessed to be their Momma, even if it means hearing that word 1,000 times a day.</span> </div>

She got to spend it with her Mayme, Grumpy, Sallie Rose and her cousin, Vin. And of course her wonderful friends here in Savannah!! </span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She was so happy and cute all day. I assume she knew it was her day. I love this girl so much and can't believe she is 1. And I can believe that she loved that cupcake as much as she did!</span><br />

<br />Cassie Butt Beckwithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11918792350952578641noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244435685244069950.post-14830037266914256762013-04-28T15:46:00.000-04:002013-04-29T16:32:47.486-04:00Lulie will be 1 year old!I can not believe that in under 2 weeks, our baby, Lulie will be 1 year old. This year has gone by so fast and I am in shock that she is a year old. It is very true that the 2nd child brings so much more "work" and so much less time to stop and smell the roses. We wouldn't have it any other way! This child has been the icing on our family cake. I knew our family would become more than a family of 3, but I could have never imagined the love and happiness that another child could bring and not just to her parents, but to her sister as well. <br />
<br />
I do feel guilty that I have not done a monthly update on Lulie or that I don't post 1,000 pictures of her, but I honestly don't have the time or the energy. Lulie if you read this in 16 years and think, "Gee Mom thanks a lot", just know that it is not because I love you less or that there is nothing to write about it, that is 100% wrong. You keep your Mommy so busy with your smile and your adventurous soul, that I can not take my eyes off you long enough to do a monthly update. <br />
<br />
Lulie is a bright eyed, big grinning, giggling little ray of sunshine. She wakes up happy and 9 out of 10 days, she stays that way from start to finish. She is happy and she is content. She loves to play and try to figure out how things work, even the stairs. She wants to climb our stairs so bad, she gets so upset when you try to take her off of them. She studies toys and really tries to make all the moving parts work. She also loves to brush her hair, her teeth and wash her body by herself. She gets very serious when taking the comb and brushing her hair. She is independent already. <br />
<br />
When sitting at the dinner table, she will quietly sit and close her hands when we say the prayer. Then, after Sallie Rose has so sweetly Graced our food, Lulie claps for her. If the 3 of us "older" people begin to laugh at something funny, Lulie will laugh with us, even though she has no idea what we are laughing at. Then, of course we all laugh harder at her and it makes her laugh harder. She loves to play copy cat. If you make a mouth noise, she will copy you. <br />
<br />
Here are a few of our other Lulie highlights:<br />
waves hello and bye bye, also say buh buh and ha<br />
says mommma<br />
answers her play phone and say ha<br />
plays with the little people dollhouse and can put the baby in its bed<br />
loves tearing down Sallie Rose's block towers<br />
puts any and everything in her mouth, but spits back out anything green and good for her<br />
She has been known to spit those green veggies down her shirt by holding her shirt out<br />
She loves dogs. She loves to pet Casey and lay on her bed with her (very dirty bed)<br />
She can do a little sign language: more, all done and book<br />
<br />
Over all this beautiful baby girl has stolen our hearts and it has been one amazing year with her! I can't wait to watch her grow and expand her vocabulary. She is so close to walking right now, any day now. I love to see her and Sallie Rose play with each other and I am optimistic that the two of them will love each other and be best friends. <br />
<br />
Happy Birthday Lulie Belle, we love you more than you can imagine. <br />

Her concept on life is ever expanding and I love to hear some of the things that she comes up with. I can tell her brain is really working hard and she is really thinking a lot of things through. Like, "Do our ears have blood in them?" or "Can Ava's Mommy send us a map to her house so we can go play?". She says that one about the map a lot. She wants to go to every one's house!

Sallie: I wish I had red hair like you

Me: I wish you did too honey, but God made you just the way you are and you are beautiful. I wouldn't change a thing about you.
<br />
Sallie: I really want pink hair<br />
Me: Uh huh, no.
<br />
Sallie: But Mommy, Daddy has brown hair. Lulie has brown hair and so do I. I want you to have brown hair too so you won't feel left out. <br />
Me: Oh Sallie, that is so sweet, but Mommy doesn't feel left out
<br />
<br />
She also recently told me that she does not want to go to college or get married, because she wants to live with me forever. Awwwww, I can't take it, she is so sweet sometimes.

Today was the 2nd worst day I have ever had in my life, besides the day that my Grandma died.<br />
<br />
Sallie has been sick for 2 days and was up all night the 1st night, which of course means I was up all night too. The 2nd night was only half a night up all night. I am also under a deadline at work for Thursday and my boss has nicely reminded me every day. So, as the world has proven, your busiest week, one of your children gets sick. No big deal. I email my boss, tell him ill be in after lunch so I can take Sallie to the dr. My kids come first, always. Then, my life safer, Susan will be at the house at 1:00. <br />
<br />
I took Lulie to school, and Sallie and I head to Target before her dr. We get excited to spend alone time together. We stop at Starbucks for a apple juice and green tea. I let her ride in this horribly, obnoxious cart that I can't steer. She loves that cart for some reason.<br />
<br />
As we are walking through the sandals aisle, having a nice time, I set my hot green tea down on the other seat across from her in the cart. It was so hot it burned my lips. As we headed down the aisle, the cart jerked a bit and we both reached for our drinks. I was too late to catch mine and the hot green tea spilled all down Sallies leg. Sallie screams and cries a lot, but this scream was a scream I have dreaded all her life. It was a scream that would happen if her finger was caught in a door. She screamed, I pulled her out of the cart, got her drenched shoes, socks and pants off and made sure she wasn't literally on fire. As soon as I realized that, I fell to the ground with her and I wept. The minute she saw me crying, she stopped and said, "mommy dont cry, i know it was an accident." A target employee came over and said not to worry and for me to try to stop crying so Sallie would be ok. Sallie again reassured me that it was an accident. <br />
<br />
Granted, I Hadn't sleep in 2 days, that moment was so heart breaking, I still am crying thinking about it later in the day. The pain of inflicting bodily harm on my harmless child made me fall to my knees and cry. It felt terrible and I will probably never forget that moment. I have lost my cool with her probably 2 times and other than discipline, I have never hurt my baby to where she screams like that. I pray it never happens again. I couldn't handle it. I never want my kids to feel pain, and I never want it to come from something I do whether on accident or not.

Lulie had been chosen to be one of the baby models. When I talked to the photographer she asked if I would be willing to let Sallie Rose be photographed as well. So, we loaded up and drove 80 miles to an organic farm. <br />
<br />
Kevin was not thrilled about going, but he probably had the best time out of all of us. The farm owners were so nice and the farm was very large and very interesting. They grow almost everything, except wheat. We all had the best time and hopefully we will get some great free photos of the girls out of the deal. We did get a large box of organic, fresh veggies. And they are delicious. Sallie Rose ate a whole carrot on the ride home. She loved it that much!<br />
<br />
Being at the farm made me really long for my home and my Daddy. I wished we were in Spearman, Texas, and my girls were running around my Dad's fields being photographed. We will definitely do that soon. <br />
<br />
Here are all the Photos I took. We couldn't take many since they were shooting them for a website, etc. hopefully, we will have some soon.<br />

I was very sad the whole time. I am not ready for the beginning of real school, because then before I know it she will be 18.<br />
<br />
Me: Sallie, we looked at a school for you today<br />
Sr: "Big girl school?<br />
Me: yes, but mommy was sad because I am not ready for you to go to big girl school. I don't want you to grow anymore.<br />
Sr: ok mommy, I'll stop eating vegetables so I won't grow and you will be happy<br />
<br />
I wish it were that easy. I wish I were not so sad either, I feel like I have lost my baby. I feel a little over dramatic too, but I am seriously crushed to think about her starting Pre-k. I can't decide if it is guilt of not being home with her everyday or if it is just natural. I wish I would have had the luxury to be home with her everyday since she was born, but it didn't work out that way. Poor Lulie, I feel like I am never home with her. <br />
<br />
I just pray that she will be safe wherever she ends up for school.Cassie Butt Beckwithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11918792350952578641noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244435685244069950.post-47973906218613370552012-12-17T16:52:00.001-05:002012-12-17T16:52:41.996-05:00Christmas timeOne more week until Christmas Eve! I love Christmas for a number of reasons, but obviously I try to concentrate on the real meaning of Christmas. I have tried to remind Sallie Rose about what Christmas truly is for us. It is hard when you explain it and yet she still concentrates on how many gifts Santa will bring. I think having her participate in the church's Christmas pageant, attending Christmas Eve service, giving generous Christmas help to those less fortunate and thanking God in our prayers for the birth of Jesus will help. I can only hope.<br />

Every year, I used to go home to Spearman for a week or so and I would take my Grandma Rosa Lee to look at the Christmas lights around town. It was something the two of us usually did alone. Then , she would send me in to get the remaining angels off the "tree" and go buy presents for all of them. She was the most generous person I have ever encountered. She didn't like the thought of a child not having something at Christmas to open. Then, most of our family would go to the Church and have communion on Christmas Eve. It was the most amazing part of my Christmas. Now that she is gone, I find myself sad about not having those traditions. Everyone is in different towns and have families of their own and in laws they have to spend time with. I miss her most of all. I think of her everyday, but I think about her even more at Christmas. <br />
<br />
I put out her Santa figurines and try to do for others as she would do; however, I don't come close to doing what all she did. I take my family to look at the lights in town and think about how much she would love them. How can one woman make such an impact on a person's life? She was a devout Christian and she lived her life like one. It's hard for me to imagine that I could ever leave as much as an impact on someone's heart as she has mine. I hope that I will. I hope that I will not only love my own children/grandchildren, family and friends as much as she did, but also glorify God as I am doing it. <br />
<br />
I would give anything to hear her voice again or give her a hug and kiss. I am so grateful to have loved her so much that is hurts. I pray for the families in Connecticut as they mourn the loss of their babies' lives that they can find hope in the Christmas season and the true meaning of Christmas, the promise that their babies are in an eternal life with Jesus and without pain. <br />
<br />
Merry Christmas everyone! <br />
<br />
Look at that poor baby! I promise she didn't cry except the last second when the lady snapped the photo.<br />

I am back working part time at my previous and first (out of college) Architecture job. So far it is working well. I come in after dropping the girls off, get to take them to the doctor if I need to and get home at a reasonable time to make dinner and spend a little play time with them. And, I actually have a small amount of income. <br />
<br />
I will still be managing the rentals until it becomes too much and then we will take the next step to find a property management company or another option. I am assuming that at some point if this new job gets busier, I will have to give my rental responsibilities over to someone else. I hope and pray that with time our options will be clear to us.<br />
<br />
Here is my beautiful office window overlooking downtown Savannah. It is really nice to be back in the working world. Ask me next week how I feel though.<br />
