We've Landed in Tn!

So it has been awhile since my last post, but I am sure you can all understand how busy The Beane family has been!We have all made it safely to our new home :) Steve drove down with the animals, (I know CRAZY...2dogs, 2 cats, and the fish) Liv and I flew down on Sunday night.  Our stuff arrived Tuesday morning with the moving company so for the last 48 hours we have been unpacking like mad-men.  Liv has been doing really well throughout the entire move.  Last week when they were packing everything up she had a break-down once her toys were getting put into boxes and she was screaming "MINE," proceeded by trying to grab the toys out of the mover's hands.


  So here we are in Smyrna, the weather has been beautiful, and I am still getting used to wearing shorts again.  Steve says I am dressing Liv like it is winter, and I realized how right he was today when I had her dressed in tights under her dress and then tried to put a fleece on her when we went outside:)  Well more boxes need to be unpacked so I am signing off for now, more blogs to come in the next few days!

.....and baby makes 4!

So it is official...we are adding to the Beane family:) The newest addition is due in spring, so the kids will be almost 2 years exactly. I have been just as sick as I was with Olivia, and this time I am chasing a toddler around!  When we ask Liv what is in "mommy's belly," she always says Manny!! We have been staying pretty close to the house since I cannot go more than an hour without getting sick.  We are also moving next weekend so things are pretty hectic around here!  Steve has been great feeding Liv breakfast and dinner every-night since I cannot be around food:(  I promise to write more posts as soon as I start feeling better:)

Art's and Crafts!



Yesterday we headed over to Caroline and Ben's house for a little bead making.  Liv was very excited to see her friend Natalie who she hasn't seen in a while! The girls had lot's of fun painting their beads and adding glitter.  While they were waiting for the second coat of paint to dry they played ring-around-the-rosie, it was soo cute! Olivia refused to fall down at the end though and wanted everyone to stand back up and do it again and again.


Mimi and the Dressels!

So I am a little behind on my blog posts since I have not been feeling too hot lately :( This past weekend we headed down to Mimi's house on the Cape with some close friends.  After a VERY LONG car drive stuck in Cape traffic....yes we are now tourists....we finally made it.  We walked down main street, got some Cape Cod bracelet's and some ice-cream that the girl's loved! Mimi rode the carousel with Olivia and Liv loved it.  Once we got home Steve cooked some great Steamer's and everyone loved it! It was a little too windy to head to the beach sadly :(

Steamers!

Bath time, and yes my mother brought out my sister's shoes when she was a toddler to show the girls haha!

this is what happen's when Mimi says she'll put Liv to bed....3 hours later!

Gym and the pond!

Last week we headed with a few friends to the local Y toddler gym for an afternoon play-date.  We arrived a few minute's early and Liv got to play with the equipment and loved it! She walked on the balance beam by herself (I was hovering next to her the entire time of course), she climbed through a little caterpillar tunnel, however getting out of the tunnel was a whole different story! Her favorite activity was putting the balls in the basketball hoop, which once I told Steve he was even more convinced of her future WNBA career!!




  THe next day we headed down the the pond with our friend Riley and Chloe.  It was literally 95 degrees so we were all in the water the entire time.  Liv is doing so well in the water, she blows bubbles now, is working on kicking and paddling at the same time, and loves to just float especially on her back! I am seeing the Olympic swim team in her future! Chloe is 10 months old, and Olivia LOVED her. She kept saying baby and just staring at her.  At one point she was touching her toes and talking, I figured out that this was her doing this little piggy to her...sooo cute!!
