There is nothing like spring...especially with kids. All three have loved the outdoors the last few weeks. We have had alot of fun stuff going on here....Easter activities at our church, Hubfest (a local fair in Hattiesburg), Jilly's birthday party (tomorrow) and so much more. <br />
All three of the kids are keeping me (Jess) busy. Jillian is about to wrap up 1st grade! It is so hard to believe. They have 6 weeks left and then SUMMER! I am so proud of her right now. She is involved with Awanas in our church and there is nothing better than "eavesdropping" to hear your child memorizing bible verses. She keeps telling me if they are "in her head" then she'll always have the right answers. So smart....if only I could abide by that all the time. (-:<br />
Madie is.....well Madie is Madie. Her latest escapade involved her driving off in her Power Wheels Jeep. She was supposed to be in the backyard with Jillian......Jillian came running inside as I was laying Luke down for a nap to inform me Madie "took off." Sure enough Madie rammed the gate out of our backyard open and headed on. When I finally caught up with her two streets over and asked her where she was going she said....."Sonic for a slushie." Oh child.....(-:<br />
Luke is my boyfriend. I never thought I would say that I have two men in my life.....but I do. Luke is my little man. I just love him to bits. He is crawling all over and is so happy. You can't help but smile when he looks at you......his dimples make you melt. I know....enough is enough, but I could go on forever about him. (-: <br />
Josh and I are doing well. Just chugging along. Both staying busy with the "everyday." So thankful for life right now. It is so easy to forget that life itself is a gift. We have three beautiful gifts that keep us reminded of that everyday.....even when they are driving off for a "slushie."<br />
Love to all. <br />
Jess<br />

Chaos! Oraganized chaos, but chaos none the less. It has been a busy January and February for all of us. As a family we put our house back on the market mid January. We have had tons of "showings" and are just waiting for that right person. That in itself has kept us busy.....keeping the house clean, getting out at the last minute so people can look, etc. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In addition Jillian has been doing Upward Cheer at our church.....they were short on coaches this season. Guess who got the pleasure of coaching??? That would be Mama Moore. It has been interesting to say the least. We cheer at our last basketball game this Saturday...thank goodness the basketball season is only 8 weeks...I am not sure I could handle much more. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Madie is still doing good.....Growing like crazy! She is growing into a little girl so fast. She has been very stubborn about potty training but in the last few days something has clicked! I don't want to speak too soon but I think I can finally say I only have one in diapers!! Yeah!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Luke, ahh Luke. My little boyfriend is still as cute as ever. Not alot to report. He is really starting to army crawl. He surely is the sweetest little baby EVER....I dare you to challenge this, ha. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As for Josh and I we are realizing that this is the season of chaos in our lives. We are running to and fro, but there are these quick glimpses of peace every now and again. Whether it is all of us snuggling on the couch and Madie whispers she loves us or watching Jillian hold Luke and snuggle him so sweetly.....we know we are blessed. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We hope you can see the blessings in your life too. Sometimes God sends or shows them in the oddest places and at the strangest times, but they are there...He is faithful. Thanks goodness for that....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Love to All,</span><br />

December has flown by in a flash! It seems like we got back from Thanksgiving travels and haven't sat down yet. (-: Despite the craziness we have done alot of fun stuff the past few weeks.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> Santa Claus visited the local Krispy Kreme donuts a few weeks back and we got to visit with him while enjoying some "Hot and Ready" donuts. (See pics below) The Southern Miss Golden Eagle was also there and the girls enjoyed getting pics with him. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Our church always has lots of great stuff around the holiday season and we have enjoyed everything from an all Church Christmas Party/giant potluck to Sunday morning worship with lots of carols! My favorite is coming up Christmas Eve....the candlelight service. We had a candlelight service growing up and it is probably my favorite tradition. I am so happy to be able to pass that on my kids. Nothing resonates the holiday spirit for me more than singing "Silent Night" by candle light. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Both the girls' schools had Christmas parties today. Jillian's class had a Christmas musical titled "Christmas on the Isle." It was this morning and was adorable. She had a small speaking part. She did great considering (if you haven't already heard) she broke a bone in her ankle last night and is on crutches. )-: I could tell she was a little tired, but she did great none the less. We are very lucky to have Mrs. Craft as our teacher. She is the only teacher at OGP who puts on an individual program. And it is great because all the kids really get to participate.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Madie's preschool class had a PJ party/book exchange this morning. We had a great time having "Happy Birthday Jesus" cake and giving and getting a new book from classmates. Once again I can't say enough great things about Temple's preschool. So thankful to have a place for her to learn and grow at such a young age. Sometimes it seems silly to send her there when my "job" is to be a stay a home Mom, but I have learned it truly takes a village and I am so happy to have all the sweet ladies at Temple's preschool as part of my village. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">As for Luke he lives on my hip or in my arms. He is spoiled....what can I say. He has such a personality and is really starting to move.....from scooting on his belly to rolling over....he will be fully mobile in no time. (-: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Josh and I are SOO EXCITED for Christmas this year because both our families are coming to us! We will have his parents for a few days and then my parents, brothers and grandparents for a few days too. It is great to not have to travel. We are so glad they decided to fly south this Christmas. (-: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Hope you enjoyed the update and I hope you all have a great Christmas. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Love,</span><br />

I can't believe it has been 3 months since my last post. It feels like life is flying by! I can't believe the holidays are already here! We had a great Thanksgiving in Tulsa with Mary, Bob and all the extended family. The weekend before we had the pleasure of being a part of Josh's Dad's wedding to his sweet new wife Lainey. It was in Branson, MO. So the Moore's have been on the move the last few weeks. We are glad to say we are staying put for Chrismtas. Everyone is coming to us...a nice change. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I am happy to say everyone in the Moore family is doing well. Luke is almost 6 months old and is starting to roll over! So sweet. He is coming into his own....he has such a sweet little personality and has the best little baby laugh ever! Madie is doing just as well. She is still in preschool and loving her teacher and class. She is busy needless to say. Wearing Josh and I out to the max, but I wouldn't have her any other way.....(-: Jilly is continuing to have a good year. She has gotten involved with Awanas at our church and I am so proud of her memorizing her bible verses. She has also discovered that math is her "talent." She likes math and is doing well with it in school and has informed me she is going to be a math teacher since that is her said "talent." She is something. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Josh and I just redid our kitchen and love it!! We knocked out the wall between the living room and kitchen.....redid the cabinents and countertops and topped it off with the burnt orange paint on the walls. I love it because it created a breakfast bar the kids can now sit and eat at.....(-: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I hope all is well with you and thanks for taking the time check in on us. I promise next update won't take three months. (-:</span><br />

(Although there is a pic of Luke and Jilly at the bottom too.) It was her first day of preschool! She was up at the crack of dawn as usual. I usually wake up Jillian around 6:20 to get ready for school and Madie is always biting at the bit to get in there and wake her up too. (-: </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I had been explaining to Madie that today was her first day of preschool. She kept insisting she needed to go to "Jilly's school." I am in a carpool with another Mom for Jilly.... so when Ms. Apryle came to get pick up Jillian, Madie was very distraught that she did not get to go with Jilly. The next two hours may have been the longest hours of my life and we watched the clock click down until 9 am when preschool starts. Madie was bouncing off the walls ready to go. She just did not understand why Jillian got to go to school but she was still at home with me and Luke. (-:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Finally around 8:45 we loaded up and headed up to "school." The preschool is at our church so she is already familiar with the building and was excited when we pulled into the parking lot. The preschool encouraged the kids to bring a stuffed animal because they were going to have a picnic with all the stuffed animals at the start of the day. When Madie walked in and saw the picnic tables with snacks and all the big stuffed animals on the floor she was geared up! She ate a quick snack and snuggled with some of the giant stuffed animal the preschool has and then we got to walk to her class. Mrs. Traci her teacher welcomed Madie and that was it.....she was off. She was ready to play, learn, mainly be a big girl. (-: I am so proud of her. She isn't scared of a thing and I know she will do great this year. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">As for other two darlings.....Jilly is still doing great. And Luke is surviving two older sisters. There has been numerous "passie" snatchings by Madie. Luke has also had to deal with watching the daily fashion shows that the girls put on as well as Jillian's continuous singing concerts in the living room. I'm not sure who is going to appreciate these quiet mornings without the girls more.....Luke or me. (-: </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I hope everyone is having a great week. Love to all. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ahhh, it's the weekend and this one has started out quite nice if I say so myself. Josh and I got a babysitter this morning so we could go for a bike ride on a nearby bike trail and then for a nice breakfast. It is great to get out early in the morning...it is just too hot the rest of the day. After returning home we got Jillian and Luke ready (Madie is in Oklahoma visiting Mima and Papa Bob for a few days) to head to church for Jillian's soccer assesment. She is going to play Upward Soccer this fall. It is just 8 weeks (8 games and 8 practices). A good step into the sports world. I had asked her about it a while ago and she said she would play on one condition......if Josh would coach. (-: He coached Upward Football and Basketball last year for older kids and the girls and I went to alot of the games to cheer on him and his team. Jilly said she thought he looked like a good coach so she would play if he was her coach. Needless to say she got her way. (-: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After her quick assesment we headed to lunch and now are all home relaxing. Much needed after a busy week! School started back this week. Jillian is in first grade this year. They loop at her school so she has the same teacher as last year...which is great....we love Mrs. Craft. She is wonderful. (-: Madie headed to Oklahoma on Thursday. Mima and Papa Bob surprised Josh and I and said they could come pick her up Thursday and stay for a week. We welcomed the surprise, with the new baby lack of sleep is starting to wear on Josh and I......one less two year old for a few days is a nice break. We love Madie to pieces but man she is a little pistol. It is still up for debate where that wild side comes from.....ofcourse Josh and I both point fingers at one another. Ha. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Luke is still doing great and is growing like a weed. He had his 8 week checkup yesterday and was already 13lbs. He was 7lbs. 14 oz. when he was born, he has already gained 5 lbs. As our pediatrician says....he obviously has no problems eating. (-: Jillian is such a great help with him. She loves laying on his play mat with him and singing him songs. He has really started smiling and she seems to be the person who can make him smile the most. She is very proud to share that fact with everyone. Madie ofcourse loves him too and spends most days trying to figure out how to "hold" him. For now she is settling for laying by him or holding his feet while I am holding him. She wants to be a little Mama.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, I guess that is about all for now. Hope everyone has a great weekend.</span> <br />

I finally have a second to catch up on the blog and all I can think to say is...AHHH! Things are crazy with three kiddos that is for sure...crazy, but fun. Luke is a doll and the girls are super sweet with him. Jillian raves about his chubby cheeks and Madie can't stop calling him "sweet baby Luke." As for Josh and I....I don't think there is any questions about our feelings. We love him to pieces. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This summer has flown by. It seems like we have all been going, going, going. Jillian spent half the summer at her Dad's so it really feels like she hasn't been home at all. She is our seasoned traveler as I like to say. (-: When she was home Luke had just been born so those few weeks flew and these last few weeks we have all been traveling as a family to visit our families.....Tour de Baby 2012 as I like to call it. First stop was Tulsa, then KC for a family wedding and then onto Fulton for a few days. We just got back this week. Jillian stayed in Fulton for a few extra days. She has been begging me for some alone time with Nanny and Papa-she had never gotten to spend a few nights with them by herself so this was her chance. Hard to believe she is getting to spend time with them like I did when I was little. I feel so blessed my kids are getting to experience their great grandparents as well as their grandparents. (-: </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tonight Luke is sitting here next to me and I was able to catch a couple of quick shots of him. Thought I would share. I also shared a funny one of Jilly and one of Madie and Luke from earlier in the week. Hope you enjoy. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I will make every effort to post more pics of everyone soon. Love to all.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Well, its that time! Baby Luke could be arriving anytime now. If he isn't here by Thursday then my doctor will induce that morning. So less than three days at the longest! Yeah! This Mama can't wait. Despite still not feeling all that great we have had a bit of a cool spell with lots of rain so that has made the last few days somewhat pleasant. (-: Ofcourse once the rain stops we live in a sauna, but atleast there is a little relief. </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Jillian and Madie are both just as ready for Luke to arrive as I am......as Jillian told Josh a few weeks back "that baby needs to arrive so Mom will stop being grouchy." (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">This summer has been good so far. Jillian went to her Dad's to visit for the first couple of weeks of summer and had a great time. She got back Saturday. She had a great end of the school year with lots of fun activities and a cute program her teacher and class put on. It was called "Rockin' into First Grade." They did a rendition of Tina Turner's song Rollin' and it was hilarious. They had the moves and all. Just one of the lines was "My brain keeps on turning....cause I just keep on learning....rollin.....rollin.....rollin into first grade." I have it on video and am trying to figure out how to get it on DVD so all can see. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Madie has had a good summer so far too. She had swim lessons last week and did awesome. I have posted a bunch of pics below. She is a fish. I have signed her up for another week because she loved it so much. She maybe a pro by the end of the summer. We have attempted potty training a couple of times but I am not sure it is the right time. She seems not at all interested. Oh well, we will give it a few weeks and try again. I really wanted to have her out of diapers before Luke arrived. Not looking forward to changing two sets of diapers. I guess it isn't that bad- I could be Kate Gosselin changing 6 babies, ha. I can't imagine.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Mom has been here for two weeks now and it has been great having her. Bob and Mary were able to come in town for Labor Day and it was great to have them too. Prior to that we had Nanny and Dad in town helping when I was having a rough time with my breathing. So the last month I feel like we have been running Hotel Moore, but it has been great. I am loving all the extra time with everyone....and help.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Josh hasn't been traveling too much the last few weeks. It has been nice to have him close to home. I know he is excited about Luke's arrival. He has been the lone ranger man for quite a while now. (-: It will be great to throw another little man in the mix. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Well, that is all for now. Next post I will have lots of pics to share of Luke! Can't wait to share him with you all.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Love to all,</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The girls had a lazy evening yesterday. It was rainy so we had a movie night . </span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1472723422315938021.post-65405944934195084942012-04-20T13:41:00.000-07:002012-04-20T13:41:25.530-07:00A busy week....(-:<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey All- It has been a busy week!! Last Friday was "Cowboy" day at school. Jillian dressed the part perfectly. Madie and I got to come and be a part. They had a parade and roasted marshmallows over a fake fire. (-: They also had pony rides and many other fun things. Saturday we had Jillian 6th b-day party. It was a great success. It was at a cheerleading gym close by. Tons of in-ground trampolines and a foam pit to flip into. The kids had a great time trying to push each other into the foam pit. The Moms and Dads had a pretty good time trying to push each other in too, ha. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Wednesday was Jillian's actual birthday and it was a busy day for sure. Jillian wanted to open her own back account on her birthday so we did that......see pics below. Adorable. We went to church that night for dinner and bible study. Jilly is in choir and they are performing next Sunday evening. She is getting pretty animated with her bible songs. (-: For her birthday dinner we went to Olive Garden. She wanted breadsticks and then ordered cheesecake for dessert. As for nutrition-not the best, but I can't deny the breadksticks and cheesecake were declicious. Good choice. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Today we begin another weekend. Lots planned, but fun stuff. Jillian is planting a garden with her girl scount troop tomorrow and then Josh and I have a wedding to go to tomorrow evening. I think we are going to try and take the boat out again Sunday after church. Trying to use it as much as we can before baby Luke arrives. (-: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hope everyone has a great weekend. </span><br />

We had a great Easter weekend! We took the boat out Friday for the first time this year. The weather was awesome and the water was perfect. We got a new tube that is "little kid" friendly. The kids can sit up straight in it and have back support. They loved it-we must have pulled them around for 20-30 minutes. They loved every minute. Josh has pics of the lake day on his phone so I will post those when he sends them to me.<br />
Saturday we went to an Easter Egg Hunt at a friend's house out in the country. Tons of kids, good food, great egg hunt. The girls had a great time. We came home that afternoon all exhausted. After naps we dyed our own eggs and Jillian wrote the Easter bunny a letter. We left it with some carrots on the front porch. He must have loved the carrots because he left Easter baskets and hid our eggs all over the house. The girls had a great time waking up to the surprise. <br />
After the hunt and breakfast we headed to church. It was a great service as usual. I am so thankful for our church family. Since joining TBC Hattiesburg has really started to feel more like home. There is something to be said about finding common ground in Jesus. It may sound silly but from where I stand it has proven true here to many times over the last few years. <br />
As far as me I am done "cooking" as some might say. (-: Little baby Luke could come anyday and I would be happy. Ofcourse he can't arrive for about more 8-9 more weeks.....so, I will continue to wait not so patiently. Ha. <br />
I hope everyone had a great weekend and is enjoying the spring weather. Enjoy the pics. <br />
Love,<br />
Jess<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">What can I say.......life is good right now. Everyone is doing great and the weather here has been beyond beautiful the past week. God is good.....in the good times and the bad, but I will say it has been so easy to see his blessings as of late. Maybe because I'm realizing how much of the things we have and do we do owe to Him. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Madie and I have spent most mornings working in the garden and just playing outside. Jillian has had alot of activities with school like the Japanese Arts Fest and her Easter party next week, all keeping this class Mom very busy, but I am enjoying every minute. I have taken a step back and have just been enjoying watching them go and grow. I'm not sure what hit me but I have realized as of late that house work and other life priorities will always be there, but the girls are growing too fast to not just be fully present with them. Hard to believe Jillian will be 6 in just a few weeks. The time is truly flying. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Josh is away this evening. He is racing in his first triathalon this year. Him and one of his traning buddies headed down towards the coast just for the night to be closer to the race site so they could get a good nights rest and not have to get up super early tomorrow to make their 7 am start time for the race. He hasn't had a chance to train as much as he would have liked for this one, but he has more coming up so we will go cheer at those. As for tonight the girls and I hit up the drive thru and are now enjoying a movie and a very loud, but fun rain storm. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">In other fun news we have finally decided on a name for the little baby boy that will grace our presence this summer.....Lucas Marvin Moore. We'll call him Luke. I am really starting to get excited for this his arrival......or maybe I am just ready to be done with this pregnancy. (-: Either way his arrival is really starting to become a topic of discussion with the girls. Lots of questions and answer. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I have included alot of pics below. Some from our recent trip to Fulton where we celebrated my Nanny and Papa's 60th wedding anniversary. It was a great party and we had a great weekend just spending time with one another, fishing, playing, and honoring two great role models. It is always so great to see couples who have been together so long. It is such a testament that marriage can work if you put in the work. (-: I know Nanny and Papa have worked hard at their relationship through the ups and downs, but what an amazing thing after all this time to see two people still committed and in love. Anyway, enjoy the pics and have a great week. Love to all.</span><br />

Josh had to stay in Hattiesburg all by his lonesome and work, but I don't think he minded the peace and quiet. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We are all headed back to Missouri this weekend to celebrate my grandparents 60th wedding anniversary. Should be a fun time for everyone. It will be good to get the whole family together!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Summer is right around the corner. Hard to believe to the school year is winding down. Only 9 weeks left in kindergarden for Jillian! She is growing up so fast. And only 12 weeks left until little baby Moore arrives. We are all getting excited for his arrival. Can't wait to meet him. We know he will be such a great addition to our family. He already is to be quite honest-the girls love talking to my belly and calling him "a little prince." </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Well, that is all for now. Below are some great pics of the girls. Enjoy!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just a quick update on us. Tomorrow is the big sonogram. We are still debating whether or not to find out the sex or wait and let it be a surprise! If we find out I am sure you will all find out soon enough! (-: We all had a great weekend this past weekend. Josh and Jillian attended the "Dads and their Princesses" dinner at church (a couple pics below) on Friday night. Jillian raved about the pink limo and that Josh and her got to play tic tac toe with crayons on the paper tablecloths. (-: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As for Saturday we did yard work and Jilly made friends with some new neighbors. Madie took a nap which is rare these days so we all welcomed the peace and quiet for a few hours. (-: Sunday was church and then we went to a Super Bowl at some friends from our Sunday School Class. They have a daughter the same age as Jillian and we could hear them singing into Campbell's karaoke machine half the night. They had a great time needless to say. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway, the rest of the week is pretty laid back. Jilly has girl scouts tomorrow and Josh and I have a night out to look forward to Saturday night. Other than that we are just hanging close to home. Enjoy the pics from this week. (-:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just wanted to update everyone on what is going on with the Moore clan. We are all doing well. The girls are getting excited about the new baby. Josh and I are too. I am now 21 weeks along-so over half way along. Less than 18 weeks to go. The little guy or gal is moving around alot and really starting to be a constant presence in my abodomen. (-: I have a sonogram next week. We can find out the sex at that point, but we are thinking we may let this one be a surprise. We will see if our patience can outweigh the temptation to find out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As far as things with Jilly-she is selling her girl scout cookies like crazy. She is doing really with it. So far in preorder we have sold about 200 boxes. I am very proud of her sales skills. We went to one of Josh's clients a few weeks back to sell cookies and she took over the place. She said her Daddy Josh maybe a good salesman, but she had better products.....cookies! They all laughed and ofcourse everyone bought cookies from her.....(-: Her and I went shopping today for a fancy outfit. They are having a Dad's and their Princess' night at our church tomorrow night. She is excited to dress up and go out with her Daddy Josh. From what I understand they are getting to ride in a pink hummer limo. Should be a good time for all the little girls. I will be sure to take pics of her in her fancy new outfit. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Madie is doing well too. She is really starting to talk. She has such a personality. She is going to be our athlete. Climbing and wrestling constantly. Although she may be more of a girlie girl after all-check out the pic below of her in the princess gown. She spent all day Tuesday parading around in dress up clothes. She was quite the little queen. (-:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Josh is starting to train for his next round of triathalons. We are excited to cheer him on again this spring and summer. (-: Him and I just joined a couples' bible study on Monday nights and are really enjoying that time together. We have both done studies seperately, but this has been nice to do it together. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well that is all for now. Hope everyone is doing well. Visitors are always welcome here, don't forget it!! (-:</span><br />

It has been a crazy Christmas season. I am sorry I have not updated the blog until now.....it feels like it has been a mad dash since before Thanksgiving. Looking back it was a fun filled season. I am thankful for another wonderful batch of memories. <br />
A quick update on everyone....I think most everyone knows we are expecting baby #3 in June, but if you don't now you do!! (-: We are excited. The girls are hoping for another girl, but I think its no secret Josh's fingers are crossed for a little boy, ha. We have decided to find out what the baby is which can happen at 20 weeks. So 4 more weeks and we will know!! <br />
Josh just finished up another great year of work. He continues to excel and do really well. He makes us all proud. Jillian had a great Christmas break. I think she loved the break from school....the sleeping in was something she took full advantage of....(-: She got to spend some time with her Dad in Oklahoma over Christmas break and got to go to San Fransisco for New Years' Eve with him and his family. She truly enjoyed the trip. She has raved about the Golden Gate Bridge and also her first attempt at Ice Skating. Madie spent the week with her sister away soaking up as much attention as possible. (-: We had a great time playing around with her. She is pure entertainment. We love her to pieces. Same for Jilly.....her gentle and sweet spirit is truly opposite from Madie so they continue to compliment one another nicely. (-:<br />
As for me I am feeling good. The pregnancy has been good so far. I am happy to say the weight has not come on like it did with the last two, but the baby is healthy and of the right so far. I am hoping to be one of those pregnant ladies that is all belly this time. Ha. Hopefully it will come off faster that way too. (-: Above all I am just excited to add to this already great family. I can't imagine what another child will be like or how they will look, act, etc. I am so excited to be doing this again.<br />
Well, that is all for now. I will be able to keep up more frequently now that the holidays have passed. I promise to keep everyone updated as much as possible. <br />
Love to all,<br />
Jess and the crew. <br />

It seemed like we were attending Fall Festivals and Halloween parties for weeks prior to the actual trick-or-treat extravaganza. Despite the over extended schedule we all had a great Halloween. Jillian was the Wicked Witch of the West and Madie was Dorothy. Jillian loved the idea of getting to "get" her little sister. They both were super cute.<br />
<br />
The week leading up to Halloween Mimi and Papa Tom visited and we had a great time with them. They were both able to attend Jillian's school Halloween party along with Josh, Madie and me. Dad broke out his story telling skills and read to her class. The kids loved it and it reminded me of when he used to read to my elementary classes every Friday. The rest of the weekend was spent relaxing. Josh and I spent lots of time sleeping in which we were very thankful for.....doesn't happen much here. Mimi and Papa Tom took over the children and Josh and I became about as lazy as possible. (-:<br />
<br />
Unfortunately we had to snap back to reality on Sunday when Mom and Dad headed back to KC. Monday night we went trick or treating with some neighborhood friends. We had a 4 wheeler pulling a small trailer. The girls looked like "big stuff" on their make shift carriage. Jillian being a pro went from house to house. Madie was very hesitant at first and then realized there was candy at each door. She didn't walk the rest of the night... she ran as fast as she could. <br />
<br />
We have added a new addition to the family. Her name is Daphne Ratatouille and she is a gray hamster. I won her at Jillian's school auction. It was a silent auction and I bid on a bunch of stuff just to bid.....well I've learned my lesson on that technique. If you bid on a hamster....you'd better want that hamster. (-: Needless to say Daphne has escaped since she has arrived at our home and caused a full day hunt for her. We found her and Mommy now knows to double check all doors on the hamster cage frequently. (-:<br />
<br />
As for this week we don't have alot planned. Jillian has a girl scout meeting Thursday, church Wednesday night and Josh has football practice tomorrow night....that reminds me, if I haven't already told you Josh is coaching 5th grade flag football. They had their first game Saturday. It was a rough one, but Josh did great staying positive for the kids. Some of them really need that encouragement. On top of it all two of the kids on his team are twins and their Dad passed away unexpectedly last week. So he is dealing with alot with this team. The girls and I were the best cheerleaders we could be but truth be told Josh needs prayers. He is dealing with kids suffering from loss and some under priveledged kids. Just pray he is able to rise to the challenge and be a positive role model that they may need right now.<br />
<br />
Last but not least Jillian has exciting news. She has decided to welcome Jesus "into her heart." She has been very interested about being odedient and likes the idea of God as our heavenly Father and says "Jesus made sacrifices for us so I will be good for Him." She may ask you about your relationship with Jesus so be ready. She has had me on my toes lately. She is a smart girl and is really asking alot of questions and making sure she gets answers. I am really proud of her. It is very rewarding to see her blossoming into such an awesome girl. Baptism is the next step somewhere down the road and we will make sure everyone is involved and will throw a big party for that for sure.<br />
Well that is all for now! <br />
<br />
Love,<br />
Jess<br />

A lot has been going on. To start I finished my first triathalon the weekend of the 8th & 9th. It was here in Hattiesburg. Josh particiapted as well and did great. We had a fan club here to cheer us on!! A big thanks to Granny, Mima and Aunt Pam for being our sideline support! <br />
<br />
That same weekend was fall break for Jillian and she went to Oklahoma to visit her Dad. She had a great time and hit the ground running when she came back. She joined Girl Scouts and had her first big school field trip to Mitchell Farms, a local pumpkin patch. As many of you know Jilly decided to quit dance back in August. I told her she was welcome to try something new and she said she was really interested in being a Girl Scout. She had her first troop meeting last Thursday. They learned Daisy law (she is considered a Daisy right now) and then went on a community outing to the Fire Station. Madison tagged along and we all had a great time. As for the pumpkin patch I got to help chaperone and Jilly and I had a great time. We picked out pumpkins, went on a hay ride and went through the crazy corn maze. I do have pics on my camera from the field trip but have not downloaded them yet so I will post some of that fun day later. <br />
<br />
As for this week we have been gearing up for Mimi and Papa Tom's visit-they arrive Wednesday. We are very excited to see them. I am busy planning the Halloween party for school. It is going to be great. The school does a whole day of "fall fun." There are individual class parties, an all school concert and a class door decorating contest. It should be alot of fun. <br />
<br />
I almost forgot-last weekend we painted the girls room and got Jilly some new furniture. We also moved her to the playroom. It is the biggest room and allows her to play and have her desk in there-the back bedroom where she was didn't allow alot of room to play. I included some pics of their rooms. I am proud. (-: Ha. <br />
<br />
Hope everyone has a great weekend. <br />

The positive weather change (fabulous) to more mild beautiful days.....but on the negative side the seasonal viruses have hit our home too. Madie had a 24 hour stomach flu bug on Wednesday which sadly also was Josh's birthday. Despite the sickness we managed to have a fun dinner at home of homemade enchildas and one of Josh's favorite cakes. He turned 27! The girls and I enjoyed picking out cards and presents. Even though Madie was sick that day she was such a doll. It was very rainy and she just snuggled on the couch and in my bed. She acted so grown up. I would ask her what was wrong and she would rub her tummy and say "oww." Then I would say I am going to go get this or that...and she would say, "ok." It was crazy bc for the first time I felt like I was really having a conversation with her.....hard to believe she is already that grown up. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Friday Jillian had a Teddy Bear and Tea party at school. The kids got to bring their favorite teddy bears and they feasted on Teddy Grahams and Tea. Jillian brought big bear-if any of you know big bear he is huge! The teacher ended up having the kids pose for a class pic with him. It was alot of fun for all. Then sadly Friday afternoon the stomach bug hit Jilly. Here we are Saturday evening and she is still struggling. Poor gal. I was just able to get her off to bed. After many sheet changes, showers and alot of 7up she seems to be on the mend but not 100% quite yet. She was such a trooper today. At one point she said she wanted to pray to Jesus and ask him to make her better. I have never heard a more adorable prayer. I wish I would of written it down. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had planned to go to church tomorrow, but I would say that is out. So it will hopefully be a quiet day at home. We have a big week to gear up for-Jillian heads to her Dad's next weekend for a visit over fall break. Josh and I are doing a triathalon next weekend as well. His second one, my first.....yikes! Bob, Mary and Granny are coming down to take pics for the triathalon and to visit. We look forward to that visit. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, I think that is it for now. Hope everyone is well. Have a great rest of the weekend!</span><br />

Madie turned two on Saturday, hard to believe! She is getting so big so fast. We decided not to do a big party this year in part because none of the family could make it in and to be honest I didn't have the energy. If feels like since school started we have been going 100 miles an hour. So it was nice to have a relaxing weekend together as a family. We started out Friday night going to eat Japenese Hibachi Grill. The girls both love to watch the men cook the food right in front of you and they love the food too. (-: Saturday we went to a new Diner in town called Rocket City Diner- a 50's style place. There are hula hoop contests and singers, alot of fun for the girls. Josh took the liberty of making Madie a cookie cake this weekend and it turned out pretty good. She enjoyed eating it and the bowls of icing she was awarded while Daddy cooked the cake. <br />
Jillian ofcourse loved all the "eating out" and doting on her little sister. They have their moments, but for the most part they are so sweet to one another. Hope that lasts, fingers crossed!<br />
<br />
Church as usual yesterday. Josh and I are really enjoying our new class. Meeting some new people, which is nice. It has been hard finding people that are our age and that have kids too. This class is a good mix. So far so good. Yesterday afternoon we just hung around and helped Josh in the yard a bit. It was back to school, work, housework, etc this morning, but I wanted to take a few minutes to share about our weekend. Enjoy the pics of our weekend. <br />

This weekend wore us all out! We had Jillian's fundraiser party at our neighborhood pool on Saturday. It was a blast. Almost everyone from the class came and we raised $745!! Thanks to all the out of town grandparents who sent money! Mrs. Craft was shocked we raised that much- she has alot on her list she needs and that will get it all and more. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Sunday we went to church. We have been trying a bunch of different Sunday school classes and I think Josh and I finally found one so that is relief. We joing Temple Baptist almost a year ago and it has taken this long to find a class, but in the meantime we visited alot of great classes and met alot of great people so we can't compain. (-:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Mondays are my day to volunteer in Jillian's class. I am amazed how exhausted I am after only four hours in that classroom! They are truly FULL of energy. Madie has Mother's Day Out on Mondays and Thursdays and is loving her time away. She is a little ham and her teachers love her. She is little Miss Independent for sure. This weekend is her 2nd birthday! Hard to believe. We decided not to do a big birthday this year. Instead the four of us are going to do dinner and celebrate. The girls love the Hibachi grill-the chef is so entertaining and Madie ooo's and aaww's as he throws the utensils in the air. Josh's birthday is coming up too, he will be 27 on the 28th. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Anyway, that is all for now.

Just busy! Jillian had a great week at school. Her Dad, Justin, flew in from Oklahoma and had a good time visiting her class Thursday and Friday. I know she loved having him. They had a mexican fiesta today at school. I was able to go-the kids seemed to have a good time. The pinata was a big hit. Jillian was very dissapointed that there were not toys in the pinata. A few tears were shed, but by the time I picked her up from school she was back to her normal bounce. I forgot my camera, but one of my girlfriends took a bunch of pics of the party- I will post them as soon as she emails them to me. </div><div style="text-align: left;">The big pizza party for Jilly's class fundraiser is tomorrow. We are al geared up and ready to go! While running errands today for some last minute supplies Madie decided to snack on her big toe. I couldn't help but share this pic of her. Hope you all enjoy.

I've got my page up and running and it looks half way decent. I'll have to have Josh help me more later. Now time for the good stuff-what is going on with us! The Moore's have been super busy the last two weeks. Josh and I got to go to Branson for Labor Day to spend time with friends. Bob and Mary graciously watched the girls for us. We were very thankful for that weekend away. Due to the tropical storm that was hitting Mississippi that weekend Jillian and Madison got an unexpected plane ride back to Tulsa for the weekend. Jillian was very excited that she officially got to fly the plane. She thought she was big stuff. </div><div style="text-align: center;">This past weekend we all went to Gulf Shores to watch Josh compete in his first triathalon! The girls were great cheerleaders. We had an extra cheerleader (Mary) in town to help and she was great. She took so many great pics and I know Josh appreciated her support. </div><div style="text-align: center;">As for Jilly and Madie-they are both doing great. Full, very full, of energy. (-: Jillian is loving school. I am class Mom for her class and am having a lot of fun volunteering and getting to watch her in action. Thanks to all that helped out with her fundraiser. Josh and I are throwing a pizza party this Saturday for all the kids to count the money raised and celebrate their success as a class. It should be alot of fun.</div><div style="text-align: center;">That's all for now. Thanks for your time.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Love, Jess</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUGN_DsWy7syU9vEnuwty1cO8VccYNxj4iCMffn7zwkuz40wUHAymXBunZkjVFhLfyX-7tdeTcRA114omquwFnfY5xn6Uk3rRAOd3KLwV9krvuyGKYE3BE0BpJI3wP2TGOYEr-64Vqasi0/s1600/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+063.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" rba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUGN_DsWy7syU9vEnuwty1cO8VccYNxj4iCMffn7zwkuz40wUHAymXBunZkjVFhLfyX-7tdeTcRA114omquwFnfY5xn6Uk3rRAOd3KLwV9krvuyGKYE3BE0BpJI3wP2TGOYEr-64Vqasi0/s320/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+063.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Jilly and Madie playing in the ocean!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhni-wEjIDmn-PqaApDK95T_eSVLpno0DU2vgLPlKQw-I_64mW0wLTYDdpUsZ1Zy97QVT5PMHWcQRDJ46FoNHFJsji_VwZ_Fdxm8Qz8yM8kcRACMyRIliX9ttgEYyCdzXLFoUew_zZxJVRR/s1600/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+038.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" rba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhni-wEjIDmn-PqaApDK95T_eSVLpno0DU2vgLPlKQw-I_64mW0wLTYDdpUsZ1Zy97QVT5PMHWcQRDJ46FoNHFJsji_VwZ_Fdxm8Qz8yM8kcRACMyRIliX9ttgEYyCdzXLFoUew_zZxJVRR/s320/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+038.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Josh headed to his bike after the swim!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJKaK4d3hWoGidYRILr-oh63mMuVDw_yE7h41p3a_43DCMh2aAj1roIB78wE9nmOG7g5TMOe7IEjpoDlbXvarCkVgArp-F7wyktX2T6EhSxFLq1E3feFnnYDq8HmD7Eu0rXHIXiFm6AICL/s1600/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+106.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" rba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJKaK4d3hWoGidYRILr-oh63mMuVDw_yE7h41p3a_43DCMh2aAj1roIB78wE9nmOG7g5TMOe7IEjpoDlbXvarCkVgArp-F7wyktX2T6EhSxFLq1E3feFnnYDq8HmD7Eu0rXHIXiFm6AICL/s320/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+106.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Jilly cheering Josh on as he comes towards the finish!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFCrzFRYCKFAkcvav3xah4hWuPhrBAHsJ4dc2xKs2UNrcrBE5HcCZO9by1261yU7teg2T8-eqahGr65z-ggFNof5satCfY62U5DAsnbZDnsuMoaaAzLl5tXy_MpWNFfr2LpY93NelTOPnZ/s1600/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+119.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" rba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFCrzFRYCKFAkcvav3xah4hWuPhrBAHsJ4dc2xKs2UNrcrBE5HcCZO9by1261yU7teg2T8-eqahGr65z-ggFNof5satCfY62U5DAsnbZDnsuMoaaAzLl5tXy_MpWNFfr2LpY93NelTOPnZ/s320/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+119.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Josh at the finish line!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi07Rx2sx0t8BAR6JTAneJitRBhXk0JZoJyxkabd8dkumZa3f_wCIyMpYMNyHVR0L37WurHmYP_K5BEf_ogcllvD8frRyMh64fhtzy_x5ws5QeqopY-H1diWNu-HHAFJXA9hkmQPsrfLBEG/s1600/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+136.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" rba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi07Rx2sx0t8BAR6JTAneJitRBhXk0JZoJyxkabd8dkumZa3f_wCIyMpYMNyHVR0L37WurHmYP_K5BEf_ogcllvD8frRyMh64fhtzy_x5ws5QeqopY-H1diWNu-HHAFJXA9hkmQPsrfLBEG/s320/Josh%2527s+Triathalon+136.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> The girls after the race playing in the sand!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1472723422315938021.post-17213218759567970562011-09-14T08:45:00.000-07:002011-09-14T08:45:26.333-07:00Trying Something New!<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks.... well, I am going to try and prove that wrong! I am about the most computer illiterate person on the planet, but going to attempt a blog! Why? Well, for all those adoring fans of ours (the grandparents) back in the midwest and scattered across the U.S. Hopefully this blog can help keep everyone feeling connected despite the distance. </span><br />
