That's right, we are so super close to being home owners in Alabama, just waiting on the bank to approve it. We are having a house built for us. So that means we got to pick out everything for it. Flooring, counter tops, cabinets, color of the exterior, and the color of the stacked stone for the front of the house. We are sooo excited. Now to wait until April for it to be done. I will post some pictures once we get home on Saturday. It is going to be amazing.
The trip is going pretty well. The girls are being pretty good. It is so hard camping out in a hotel with babies who like to be loud. Last night they teamed up on Ron and I, and kept us up pretty much all night.
Tomorrow we are going to officially become Alabama fans, and buy our first Bama merchandise. LOL So we are going to enjoy our last day here, and then head home to get ready for our Christmas with the big kids.
Much Love,
Suzie

Bama!
Howdy from Alabama!!!
That is right. We are in Alabama, scoping out houses for our future home. And by george, I think we have found just what we need & want. It is so amazing. I can not wait to be able to share it all.
The big kids are in Ohio visiting with their mom for the holiday, they come home Christmas afternoon. The babies are here with us. The trip was long... so very long. Not looking forward to the trip home. It is so amazing here. I just can not put it into words. :o)

The Story of Us
My life is busy, my hands are full, but my heart is overflowing with blessings. I have an amazing husband whom I love with every ounce of my soul. I have 5 AMAZING kids. 3 biological, 2 step children. Mckla, RJ, Cooper, Carlynn and Chandi. The C's, those are my babies. We currently live in Texas, but getting ready to head to the great state of Georgia. My husband is going to be a Drill Sargent at Ft. Benning. We are excited for the new adventures headed our way.
My days are filled with cooking, cleaning, changing diapers, and chasing after my kiddo's. Mckla is a fun loving, animal lover. Especially horses. She wants to work with animals with she gets older. RJ is, well, a boy. He loves anything sports, riding his dirt bike with dad, and playing Army with his buddies. He says he is going to be a soldier like dad when he gets bigger.
Copper is my first born. He had a difficult delivery and passed away at 2 days old. We miss him terribly. Carlynn is our sensitive spunky lil firecracker. She loves Mickey Mouse and Spongebob. She like to try and help with her lil sister. She is talking up a storm, but we can't quite make out exactly what she is saying. Her newest thing is taking her shoes off in the car, and holding them high above her head and yelling, TAAAA DAAAA! Silly girl. Her best bud is her Bubs, (RJ) She has yet to say Mckla, but loves her sissy so much. Especially when sissy lets her ride on her back like a horsey. Chandi is our super smiley happy baby. Not much makes her mad, well unless you are slow at feeding her. She LOVES to eat. Her and Carlynn are exactly 51 weeks apart. And the wear the same size diapers. :o)
I love being mom (or stepmom) to all of these wonderful kids. It is not always easy, but it is worth every ounce of sleepless nights, all the trashed rooms in my house, and the piles of laundry in my house. I would not trade it for the world. I want this blog to highlight the parts of my life that I don't want to forget. I want it to be a happy blog. I want to be able to share the joys of our family with you.
