Our Christmas
I hope everyone had a good Christmas! We sure did! On Wed we left for montomery to see Charlemagne's family and some friends who were in town. I will post some pics on that later..Thursday we can back to madison to spend Christmas with my family. They came from TN and actually got here before we did. The girls had a great time opening presents. As you can see they loved their gifts. That night we got ready for Santa and Christa never went to sleep. The next morning she saw her new bike Santa gave her. She also had a back pack. Brea got her a bee riding toy and book bag. They both also loved their Dora tent!
Here are some pics of our Christmas. You can go look at more at www.lifeofagibbons.shutterfly.com/random/795

Merry Christmas!!!!
Hopefully this will be a start to many more posts more often. I got my Christmas present early...Charlemagne got me a notebook from verizon!! I am really enjoying it too. This is just a quick post to wish everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY HOLIDAYS!! I hope yall are done with Christmas shopping and don't get caught up in the mad last minute traffic at the malls/stores. I just got done finishing getting the last of the stocking stuffers for the girls. This is going to be a really good Christmas for them. They are old enough to open presents and know what they are. Santa got Christa a bike...We can not wait to see her face when she sees it. Every time we go into wal mart she wants to see the bikes. I am still trying to find out what to get Charlemagne...I know that bad considering Christmas is only 2 days away...
My parents and grandmother is coming in on Thursday and leaving Saturday. I am excited to have them here. This is the first time they will be seeing "santa" on christmas morning.
I will hopefully post some pics after christmas is over. have a great one and i will post something soon!!

Thanksgiving
Well Thanksgiving is around the corner (actually tomorrow). I am so thankful for all that I have. My parents and family, Charlemagne's parents and family, my wonderful 2 girls, and friends! I am really blessed to be a part of a great loving family.
Tomorrow we are going to Augusta to see Charlemagne's family. I took the girls on Friday to Alabama so they can stay until this weekend. They have had a ball...I have been off work for the week and Charlemagne only went for two days. We have had a well deserved break from them. We are so ready to see them again and miss them so much. It is hard to think about what we did before them.
Saturday is the start of Basketball season. They have been practicing but the games actually start. We are excited about this year because he has a really good group of boys he has been coaching since they were in 9th grade. They did really good in their scrimmage game and are very excited to see what the outcome of this year is.
The girls are growing up so much! I know I say that in every posting but they grow up in just a month. Christa is still peeing in the potty randomly but more often then before. She usually goes through about 1 or 2 pull ups a day. She is talking so much now and has such a big imagination. She is always pretending to so something with random things, even it is invisible things..haha..She is so into Dora and Boots now. I have to record it in DVR because that is all she wants to watch. She likes to pretend she is Swiper too...Its funny to watch her..It is hard to believe that she will be 3 years old in February!!!
Brea is 15 months now. She went to the doctor on the 12 for her checkup and she weighed as much as Christa does. She weighed 28 lbs. and Christa is 30. She is going to be a big girl...haha...She even has as much hair as Christa does, curly and black! She loves to do anything her sister does but she is not as independent. She still wants to be on her mommy and daddy, and she IS a daddy's girl...she loves her daddy! She gets so excited when she sees him coaching and we are in the stands.
Life is moving so fast! Thanksgiving is a time to settle with family and remember what we are thankful for. It don't seem that Christmas is around the corner. I love these holidays because family and friends are so important!
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you and Happy Holidays!!!

Christa is using the potty!!!
I'm back for just a min. I just wanted everyone to know that Christa is now using the potty all by herself! I'm so excited and she is too. Today she went by herself and pooped...She got of the potty and came and told me and started jumping up and down. She is to funny.
We have been busy with it being Charlemagne's fall intercession last week and mine this week. It has been really nice to be off but I am ready to go back. We went to visit my parents on Monday and came back yesterday. They were so happy to see the girls.
We this is just about all we have been doing lately. I will try and write some more later. Hope all is well with everyone else. Take care!!!

Yes...I am still here...haha
I know,I know..Its been a long time!!
As you know we have not had internet connection at our house. I am in Montgomery right now on my Mother In Law's computer...(Thanks!:) There has been a lot going on lately. I have got me a job and the girls have been going to the babysitter. Charlemagne has been doing a WONDERFUL job of taking them and picking them up in the evening.
Christa has learned a lot since she has been going. They have been learning their colors red, blue, and yellow. She usually gets them right when you ask her, that is if she is in the mood to tell you..haha...They have also been learning the letters A,B, & C. The best thing of all is that she will go pee pee in the potty!!!! She has just recently done that.I took her to a volleyball tourny one Saturday and she went 3 times while we were there....I was so proud of her. She is talking so much better too. Its like since I went to work she has grown up so fast!
Brea on the other hand is getting around fast! She is so busy with everything. We have gotten her off the bottle and on a sippy cup. It has helped since she is on regular milk now that we don't have to buy formula. She has gotten 6 teeth in all now! But boy she can throw them fits!
Her and Christa play so well together. I really am so happy to have them so close in age. It is getting easier as they grow. But ask me again when they get teenagers and see if I have changed my mind...haha...
My job is going good. I have been working as a parapro at this alternative school. It is fun to work with these kids. Some of them are bad but deep down they are just kids...I feel that this is getting me prepared for the future when I do get my own set of kids in the classroom. I am also still coaching at another high school. We have gotten off to a pretty good start of the season. One of my JV players moved to Varsity which is a good thing. Its always good to see one of your players to move up to the varsity team.
Like I said before, Charlemagne is doing a wonderful job of taking care of the girls in the morning and evening since I have gone to work. He is getting ready for basketball season too. It will be very soon when he starts his season. I am ready to start watching his team play. I think they will have a pretty good season this year and so does he. He has worked with these boys since they were freshman....I am just so proud of him and what he does with the boys and the team.
This is about what has been going on the past month. I will hopefully be getting me a laptop so I can catch up on what the girls are doing daily....I hope everyone else is doing great! I am about to catch myself up on what you are doing with your blogs...
Take care and blog with you soon:)

Just an update
I just wanted to update everyone on what is going on..Our Internet right now is not working so I haven't been able to put pics up of Brea's birthday yet. I did put them on the shutterfly account. Just click here to view them. BREA'S BDAY PICS
Something new is that I found me a job. It is a pretty good on so far. I started last Thursday, so tomorrow will be one week to the day. It is a paraprofessional position at an alternative school. The kids are real rude but they do listen if you threaten to write them up or take them to the office. They also make them do push up and squats if they misbehave. I have gotten to know some of the kids and really talk to them about what they like to do and stuff like that. It seems like the hardest part is getting along with other teachers when you are a parapro than the students. I am just so ready to get my own classroom!
As well as working at the school I am also still coaching. We had our first game last night. They did ok and it was a real exciting game. We have many more to go so hopefully we will get better.
While I have been going back to work the girls have been going to a babysitter. She actually was a pre school teacher for many years. She keeps one other girl who is Brea's age and used to run an in home child care. The girls love her! Christa has been doing really good but yesterday and today she had to go to time out for her first time. The reason was being mean to Brea...imagine that..haha...
Well I am at the gym writing this and I'm ready to go home. I will hopefully get the Internet back on by next month. So until then, have a wonderful one!!!!
