We finally did it!!

Yesterday we got Madison's ears pierced. It was completely spur of the moment, although I have been thinking about it for some time. I just stopped to ask how much it would be and the more we thought about it the more we decided now was just as good a time as any. The woman who did it was very reassuring that it would not be as bad for Madison as it would be for me. Chad had to hold her while she did it. She did cry but was quickly over it when she heard the word "cookie". The lady was right about the fact that it was defiantly worse for me than for her. She was a brave little girl and she looks soooo adorable.

When will it stop!!!

So we are soooo tired of being in the house. Chad luckily had today off anyway so he did not have to drive an hour in the rain but we were planning on going to the beach today. Needless to say that didn't happen:( Madison is tired of being couped up in the house too. We let her go out and play in the driveway for a little while after the rain stopped for a few minutes. Anyways we are sorry for all of you who do not have power. We are praying for sunshine tomorrow:)

And So It Begins...

So I have been thinking about doing my own blog for awhile now but just have been to lazy to do it. I always enjoy reading about the goings on in other peoples lives, but part of me thinks who will really care about what goes on within my little fam. Well if you guys can put a smile on my face, maybe some of the comical things that happen to us will have the same effect on you. Right now things are alittle tough for the Hope family. I am currently trying to get a job or 2 or 3:) But other than that I am LOVING being a mommy to my little bit. Madison spent the morning with Hayden, one of her favorite people in the world, and although I do not have a picture of them today, here are a few of them in precious moments. Thank you Rebecca and Michael for watching her today:)
