Been awhile but hey!....UPDATES::::::::::::dun dun duuuuunn

Mad Mad Maddy has two toofers now and she is a crawlin' like none other. She's loving trying new foods and she is a dancing fool!! Loves music! Poker Face - lady gaga is her newest most favoritist song!!

Troy and I ended up going black friday shopping this year and we got ourselves a nice, new TV. And we are enjoying watching TV again for the first time in 2 years almost (old TV antenna outlet didnt work = no TV) So since our little girl is crawling everywhere and grabbing everything we think it is best to hang the TV on the wall. So that'll be our weekend project.

The pets are doing wonderful: Mya has become the greatest addition to the family since we bought her a shock collar (no more running away--BUUZZZZ!) Mocha is hooked on chasing lights and Lucky is still sleeping 24 hours a day lol....lazy one she is.
