Not Letting Go!

We stopped by the grocery store on the way to Grandma and Grandpa's house and suddenly Mailee's face lights up and she is reaching for the sky. Turning around, I see one of those ball cages filled with those 98cent balls. She had to have one, signing "please" and everything. Once I got one for her, she wouldn't let go of it, even in the car! She was so happy and adorable clinging to a ball that was almost as big as she is!

What do you call a female "Italian Stallion?"

Sorry for the delay...
Ok, so how to put the past month into a "bloggable" length. Hmmmm.... Cliff's Notes!
In December, we were given a 30-day notice that our house was being foreclosed (author's note: we were renters - Thank Goodness!) So we had to be out.
Shortly after the new year, mid January, Mailee and I shipped ourselves to Grandma and Grandpa Barlow's house to stay for an unknown length of time while we looked for an appropriate place to rent in Santa Clarita. During this time, Johnny was staying in Thousand Oaks still to watch over our stuff (still in the house) and to be in closer proximity to work.
Toward the end of January, I found a GREAT place in Placerita Canyon and we moved in on February 1st! I love our home and I love even more that our family is back together!!!
In the midst of this all, Johnny has been working like a mad-man, more than making up for the "time off" (no one wants to get work done or paint their homes during the holiday season) AND I got a promotion at work. I am now the Lead Teacher of Title 1, a job that comes with a little more money (not enough to buy a pony, but something is something) and some more responsibility. Basically a resume-builder!
So, although I was taking pictures during the past month, life was so topsy-turvy that I didn't ever get to post them. Sorry!
So now I play catch-up!
