Bethany's First Pictures

2008-07-16T16:49:00.003-04:00

Today we all went to Bethany's 36 week ultra-sound, and yes I mean all of us. The girls were impressed for about 2 minutes. Which I guess is pretty good for a pre-schooler.

This is Bethany's face, we have never been able to see a shot like this with either of the girls.
So take a vote who does she look like?

This is her profile, what a little cutie!

Everything looked great,
She is 2 oz shy of 6lbs
we got to see the 4 chambers of the heart beating
She is head down and growing with her due date

When we saw the foot Abigail asked where her shoes were.
When we were all done Hannah started rubbing my belly, like she was trying to figure out how the technition but the baby on the screen.

3.5 weeks to go!

Mawmaw, my grandmother, send the girls they cute summer dresses. Thank you Mawmaw, the girls wore them to church.

We got the girls side walk chalk this afternoon. They had a blast on our back porch.

Our Big Girl!

2008-06-11T15:07:00.008-04:00

Hannah-Lillie Grace Turns 2 years old today.

Hannah was born with a burst of energy 2 years ago today. She was so fast at the end that my mom who had step out of the room for a moment could not get back in time. Hannah was a wonderful sleeper and eater. She is still a great eater, she will eat anything you put in front of her, mostly anything. She walked at 13mths but she doesn't have a first work she has first phrases.

What a blessing Hannah has been in to our family. She is a burst of energy from the moment you open her door in the morning she comes bounding out asking for the last toy she played with the night before, all be it her pooh-bear stuffed animal or the dryer ball she recently has claimed as her own. She is a tenacious go getter that has no lack in the department of expression especially when it comes to words. She will really tell you have she feels.
When we sit down to dinner she asks everyone;
What your favorite color? and What your favorite animal?
Hers are Blue and Monkeys

For her second birthday she got a pooh-bear balloon, Mrs Potato Head, and a super bouncy ball. The balloon won out, she came out of her room after nap time screaming and running saying pooh bear pooh bear. We took advance of the free museums in Raleigh and went to the Natural Science Museum today. It had a butterfly gallery and the girls also got to touch an alligator. It has been a couple of weeks since we have seen an alligator, ha ha.

One month old Hannah

Sprinkle Time

This weekend the temperature was 100 so Tony bought a $2 sprinkler for the girls to play our in the backyard. It was the most fun anyone could have with $2. Don't go crazy South Florida friends at night it is still in the lows 70s.

Abigail called it sprinkle time.

Hannah says that you are number one.

Abigail saying don't push me, Hannah saying go go go go. Abigail is a little more cautions than our Hannah.

Our Big Move to North Carolina

Our Davie Home

We have so many memories in this house. Over the last couple of weeks we have been recounting all the fun times and relationships we have built in South Florida. Tony and I brought our first 2 babies home to this house in Davie. Both of our girls have made friends that we will be able to tell them about in years to come. It has been a wonderful 4 1/2 years as a family and as a couple. What stands out the most in our minds is how faithful the Lord has been to us in joyfully times and those times that were full of tears. We will miss our family being so close and our church family at Palm Vista. We are also excited about the next chapter our family's life.

Moving week was so crazy. I want to say a special thanks to Mindy who coordinated help getting packing and having meals delivered. She was also at our home almost every morning for a week packing up boxes, what a blessing to a 29 week pregnant mom.

Saturday morning came so fast we were all packed and ready but mentally it was hard to see all our things leaving our home and going into a truck, the finality of it all was setting in.

Both Broward homegroups showed up in force with 9 men and 4 women ready to serve bright and early. I was doing good until Tony came to me and said you may want to go look outside and start to pick out things that we can live without because it doesn't look like the truck can hold everything. So I went outside to take a look and this is what I encountered.

I thought to myself there is no way I have no idea what we can live without, it is just to much stuff. But thanks to Rafa and Dan, the master packers, everything made it in safely. During unpacking we found nothing damaged or broken praise the Lord.

We spend our last time of worship Sunday morning at Palm Vista. We will miss our church and all the family we have made over the last 4 years. We love you guys and will always hold a fondness in our hearts for you. After church we attended a church wide goodbye party. It was such a bitter sweet time to say "see ya later" because it is not goodbye after all.

Monday morning came quick and after getting the car loaded on the dolly we were off at 6:00am.

Melissa and Jon came with us. Thanks to you guys we could not have made this trip on our own.

Here is Jon driving the big rig that held our our earthly belongings. There is something cerile about watching a truck full of all our your possession barreling down the highway with your brother-in-law at the wheel. Of course Tony and Jon had fun driving the humongous thing and they did do a great job.

We did stop at Cracker Barrel for our last lunch in Florida. Road trip meal at Cracker Barrel is a prerequisite where I come from. Of course we had a family photo op on the rocking chairs.

The girls did a great job in the car. We had to stop every 2 hours or so to walk the pregnant lady and get gas and snacks of course.

It took us 15 hours to get to Florence, SC on Monday night. We got in around 9:30 and the girls attacked uncle Jon right before we all crashed for the night.

Our Apex Home

We arrived in Apex at 11:30 Tuesday morning. The girls were so excited to see our new house. All though they were a little grumpy for not have a really schedule in days that they ran around the house and Abigail pick out her room. The trip went well but we were all ready to arrive. A couple of guys for our new church in Apex, Sovereign Grace Church help Tony and Jon move in. What a bless to have a built in church family here in Apex.

We went to dinner our second night here and this picture of Abigail is to prove that we are differently Floridians and not use to low 60s at the end of May.

We are starting to settle in, the girls are doing great. Most of the boxes are unpacked, and most of the closets and cabinets are organized. Word of advice to you ladies never move while pregnant. Last Sunday we went to church for the first time here and in many ways it felt like home. This week we are trying out homegroups and making new friends. We really are enjoying the area and love our new home.

The Lord has been so faithful throughout this process with selling our home in Davie so quickly to giving us the bigger truck, which we needed, for the price of the smaller one, to providing a home in Apex that is 2 minutes for our church. Not to mention what he has done in our hearts to prepare us for the journey.

Christmas was a whole lot of fun

Then we drove to Papi And Gigi's and had a lot of fun.

And the girls got to learn some survival training techniques from GiGi.

Our Halloween Fun

2007-11-01T12:44:00.000-04:00

For Halloween we went to Abuela and Grandpa and Trick or Treated with the girl's cousins. This was Abigial's first time really knowing what was going on and she had a blast. She had been waiting all day to "go to Halloween" as she called it. Hannah did great as well, she was either in the stroller or on Tony's shoulders. She didn't miss out on getting any candy, if we approach doors and forgot to take her up to the door she sounded the alarm so we would all hear her disapproval.

Hannah asking for more chocolate. Notice the Chocolate face and hands.

I found the girls planing in the tub one day. They were having a blast, don't worry there was no water.

Abigial reading to Hannah.

After bathtime fun. They wanted to be wrapped up like burritos.

Hannah's first pair of high heels.

The little Princesses

My cousin Erin made these towels for the girls. They love to dance around in them after bathtime because they don't fall down like regular towels.

Abigail's new pjs

2007-06-20T17:11:00.000-04:00

I made this for Abigail this morning. It was one of my first attempts at clothings so it is a little funky but it is pajamas no the less. Ok Ok I know it is a little big, but I was not sure about the size I went for the bigger size to be on the safe side. It ended up being a 4T, which we will be quickly getting into.

Hannah is a walker!!!

2007-06-04T09:15:00.000-04:00

Tony took a week off this past week for 1st big family summer vacation. We had a great time relaxing, vistiting with family, and semi-camping.

On the Road

2007-06-04T09:10:00.001-04:00

We left Davie at 10.30 Friday morning, on our way to Winter Haven. The girls stayed with my parents as Tony and I meet his family in Orlando for Jon's graduation from seminary. It was a beautiful cerimony and we are so proud of Jon. It has been a long hard road for Jon and Melissa, Melissa graduated a couple of weeks ago. They both are done with school for the moment are have more time on there hands, good job you guys.

Our van loaded down.

Saturday morning at about 11 we left for Cartersville, 30min north of Atlanta. The plan was to stay at a KOA cabin and get up the next morning and attend a Soveriegn Grace Church near by. It took us 11 hours to get to Cartersville and we arrived so late we decided to skip church and head for Mississippi.

Our cabin in Cartersville, GA

Aberdeen, Mississippi

2007-06-04T08:26:00.000-04:00

We arrive in Aberdeen at 3:30. My mawmaw was so excited to see us. All the family stop by at one point that evening to say hi. Abigail was taken by my great aunt and uncle to see their goats and pig. We had a great time visiting family and catching up.

Monday Tony took Abigail around mawmaws property and up and down the road a few times. Abigail got to see my uncle George's horses.

We went over to my Aunt Kathy's house and played in the fields a bit and pet the horses again. We got the pet the horse a lot while in Mississippi, the girls loved it.

Abigail played with the fake penguin's more that looking at the real ones.

Looking in the fish tanks

They were fascinated by the sharks

Abigail walked around the butterfly garden with her finger out so have one on her. I caught one and put it on her and she scream bloody murder. Needless to say she did not have her finger out anymore.
before and after

The first time we walk through the butterfly garden Hannah was asleep. We took her back to the garden later and she was awake and loved it.

We got in the middle of the a couple of tanks. The first is the Nemo fish and the second is some deep water crabs.

We got to pet a couple of things, first the sturgeon, then the stingrays and sharks. Yes that is Hannah with her hand on a fish. She loved petting them, our little nature girl.

We all enjoyed the aquarium.

A Day at the Park

Tony's birthday

2007-03-21T15:47:00.000-04:00

Today Tony turns 26. Can you believe it he is so young. Last Saturday the Gavilon's treated us to a museum day, Cradle of Christianity was at Ft. Lauderdale. It was great. I think he enjoyed it. I threw him a surprise picnic on Sunday after church, the weather was wonderful. Today the girls and I meet him at work for a lunch picnic. Abigail and I made him a cake and her got his presents. An Mp3 player and a flash drive, so he can keep his sermons better organized then on 50million disks everywhere. This saturday we are going to see Jeff Shaara his favorite write, he write war books like Flags of our fathers, Killer Angels, and God's and Generals. I love you Tony Happy Birthday Stud!

Its been a while

2007-03-21T14:33:00.000-04:00

I long update to get us back up to speed since the last post!

In January Tony and I launched our new website selling cloth diapers, slings and other natural baby product. I has been a blast sewing diapers and slings. While it has kept me busy, I enjoy cloth diapering and love to sew for others.

Hannah-Lillie with me!

Our Church, Palm Vista Community Church, celebrated 10 years this past January. We got the privilage to serve in putting together the formal night with a great show and dinner and much latin dancing. We have so many talented people in our church the night was amazing.

Abigail is talking up a storm. It is amazing how much she loves to sing and make up songs and the conversation she can carry is so exciting to me. We have continued our coop learning the colors gold, brown, and purple this year. Abigail loves to finger paint, and color. She loves to draw rainbows and whales, go figure. I have lately gotten the privilage of clean with a pair of butterfly wings on because it was dress up time and we all must dress-up even Hannah has a pair. Can you picture me wearing a beautiful set of wings cleaning the toilet, aaww the life of a mom with a toddler.

Hannah-Lillie is cruising around furniture at 9mths old, She will be totally walk ver soon. She is growing so fast. Her last is throwing tempertantrums because she is not getting what she wants. The Lord is so faithful to humble me through my children. She syas the word dog and is in love with Tony. We love our little princess and amazed at how quick she is growing up.

We made cut out cookies in February with Abigial and Hannah best friends the Roger's girls, Adi and KK. This was the one Abigial made from her DaDa. We also did them for St. Patrick's day. I sent some to MawMaw and GG and Pappi. GG and pappies didn't arive in one piece but at lest they got a little taste.

We dedicated Hannah-Lillie in March. I was so great. Had to take the oportunity to take a family picture. We were clean and dressed up, a rare oportunity.

GG and Pappie got the girls this house for Christmas they just love it. We live on our porch, the weather has been so nice. We have done tons of picnics these past few months.

The little monkeys!

2006-12-04T12:45:00.000-05:00

Last night Melissa came over to help us take our family christmas picture. I have got to tell you Melssa was a saint. We had melt down after melt down and of course it was hard to get Hannah to look at the camera and stop eating Abigial's dress. When we would finally get a good picture of the girls Tony or I were not looking at the camera. We got this really good one and are so thankful. Thank you melissa for your patience and humility and for all the work last night. I hope that you didn't go home and tell Jon that you don't want to have kids. Why is picture time so crazy? Abigail is wearing her new dress from GG and Hannah is wearing Abigail's dedication dress, I can't believe she can fit into it. Our girls are getting so big. Enjoy a few outtakes from the whole fiasco.

2006-12-04T12:44:00.000-05:00

So do you like this one or the one before? You vote.

2006-12-04T12:42:00.000-05:00

Dada's little princess.

2006-12-04T12:41:00.000-05:00

This one was just not happening.

Mommy trying to keep everyone smilin.

2006-12-04T12:32:00.001-05:00

Hannah attaching the snowman. She looks so cute in that dress.

2006-12-04T12:32:00.000-05:00

Abigail the photographer.

2006-12-04T12:31:00.000-05:00

Not a good idea to give a 2 year old the camera.

2006-12-04T12:30:00.001-05:00

Can you see the tears. It is hard to be 2.

2006-12-04T12:30:00.000-05:00

Hannah is not a very good train conductor.

2006-12-04T12:29:00.000-05:00

Abigail had a melt down because she didn't want Hannah touching her. I did that to my mom with my brother. Sorry mom I understand your pain.

2006-12-04T12:28:00.001-05:00

Negotiating a smile.

2006-12-04T12:28:00.000-05:00

I thought it would be cute to have the train in the picture, Abigail didn't.

2006-12-04T12:27:00.000-05:00

A good one of us too. We decided to take one of just us to give Abigail a break. She decided she wanted to be in the picture as well. Of course.

2006-12-04T11:33:00.000-05:00

Maybe we can crop.

2006-11-30T16:45:00.001-05:00

What is this?

2006-11-30T16:45:00.000-05:00

Is Abigial smelling the flower or if the Flower smelling her?

2006-11-30T16:44:00.000-05:00

My girls!

2006-11-28T14:25:00.000-05:00

Tony and Abigail pick out our tree on Sunday. Tony and I decorated it last night. I thought Abigail would be super excited about the lights and decorations this morning. I woke her up gave her a piece of raisin bread for breakfast, by her request, and turned on the tree lights. She went over to the tree touch and ornamant with her bread and walked away. I was so disapointed, from Abigail I expected a big dramatic hupplaa. Oh well, I hope she is more enthused Christmas morning. To her defense she is not a morning person.

2006-11-28T14:21:00.000-05:00

Hannah-Lillie is sitting up and semi-crawling accross the floor. I say semi because she doesn't get her belly off the floor, she use her toes to propel herself towards a toy of interest. It's pretty funny. She is much earlier than Abigail was. Of course Abigail was a lot more verbal and was saying dada and mama at this point, and know of course we are having whole conversations about Elmo, pacies, and dolls.

2006-10-31T10:40:00.000-05:00

Hannah getting ready for her first solid food. As you can see she is already trying to escape. Here comes the rice cereal.

2006-10-31T10:38:00.000-05:00

Ok this is going to be good, I just know it. I am not sure about it, mama says it will be good. Ok I will try it.

2006-10-31T10:37:00.000-05:00

I don't like it. I don't like it.

2006-10-31T10:36:00.000-05:00

not so good mama!

2006-10-31T10:35:00.000-05:00

Walked in to the livingroom yesterday. Abigail had set this scene up.

2006-10-31T10:34:00.000-05:00

Happy Halloween. We went to Jon and Melissa's church fall fest on Sat night. Abigail is raggedy Anne Hannah is a cute little cow. More pictures to come as they tricker treat tonight.

2006-10-31T10:32:00.000-05:00

Mawmaw sent us a huge package last week. Abigail got a load of new underwear. She played with them, putting them in piles and gushing over all the different prints and animals on them. If you notice in this picture she is wearing 5 pairs. The girls also recieved little lovies, Abigail is holding the bear and Hannah is holding the lamb. I got Santa Clause embroidered towels and Tony got some new shirts. Thanks MawMaw we love you!!!

The Pumkin Smash

2006-10-18T11:47:00.000-04:00

last night Abigial put on her pumpkin costume. She wore this last year for her first halloween. This year she is going to be raggedy anne, maybe we can get dada to be Andy. Its funny that this pumpkin fits Hannah as well, that is costumes for ya.

2006-10-18T11:45:00.000-04:00

4 month old and already a reader, genius.

2006-10-18T11:44:00.000-04:00

Hannah and Abigail's first bath together. Abigail like the company in the bath tub. Hannah is not to sure.

2006-10-09T09:42:00.000-04:00

Abigail was given a sheep costume. She loves to play dress-up. I can just picture her in the christmas play this year. The first sheep to steal baby Jesus from the manger and push run a way with him in her baby stroller.

2006-10-04T10:00:00.000-04:00

I typical day in the Elswick household. Yes this is the best picture I could take of the three of us. I thought it would be a good representative of our day. A little fuzzy, full of color, one person is always crying, mommy is usually confused, and Hannah is wide eyed.

2006-10-04T09:57:00.000-04:00

Hannah is rolling over all the time now. It is so surprising when you lay her down on her belly and go in to check on her later and she is on her back laughing at the ceiling.

2006-10-04T09:56:00.000-04:00

Playing dress up.

2006-10-04T09:55:00.000-04:00

Abigail is dada shoes. She has a major shoe fedish.

2006-10-04T09:54:00.000-04:00

Abigail give Hannah a hug. Squish! Hannah just laughs and laughs. God knew what he was doing when he ordered our family. Abigail would have cried for days if her big sister gave her hugs like this.

2006-10-04T09:53:00.000-04:00

Got a lot of picture like this. So glad digital cameras were invented.

2006-10-04T09:52:00.000-04:00

I finally got a good picture of them together.

2006-10-04T09:51:00.000-04:00

Abigail loves being a sister. I worked hard for this picture, Sesame Street was on and she keep looking behind me shoulder at the tv. There is just something aboug Elmo and preschoolers.

2006-10-04T09:49:00.000-04:00

Our little smiley girl. Hannah is such a happy baby, it easy to get her to laugh and smile. Her big sister is really good at it.

2006-10-04T09:48:00.000-04:00

Hannah's new diaper.

2006-09-29T15:37:00.000-04:00

I have started to make cloth diapers for Hannah. This is the first, not much to look at but it does the trick. Don't worry I will be getting more creative in the future.

2006-09-29T15:36:00.000-04:00

Abigail's first pedicure.

2006-09-29T15:35:00.000-04:00

Marshel and Amber stopped by and brought the girls fun toys. Abigail got a baby, her favorite, and of course she taught Amber how to feed it milkies.

Abigail has spent a lot of time lately in the laundry basket with her babies. She takes them every where she goes. I think she is going to be disapointed when we come home from the hospital with only one baby.
