Catching Up

Sally has been one busy girl over the past couple of weeks. She has met new friends, spent time with special, special friends, flown for the first time, and grown like a weed!

(The pictures are not in chronological order...this blogging thing sometimes gets the best of me!)

Happy Summer! Sally is officially ready to hit the pool!

Piper Johnson and Sally...best friends since birth!
Sally and Piper finally got to meet! Taylor (Piper's mommy) and I have been best friends for many years. Just like God had a plan for Taylor and I to meet (we had so many mutual friends and our paths crossed so many different ways...it was inevitable), so it is with Sally and Piper. Taylor and I found out we were both expecting within days of each other. We were shocked that the other was pregnant and even more shocked when we found out our due dates were so close together. Taylor was due April 11 and I was due April 6. Taylor's due date was moved up to April 6 and we just loved that our girls MIGHT be born on the same day. I honestly never thought it would really happen, especially since I was scheduled to be induced on April 2. God had a plan...Taylor went into labor on April 1 and Piper was born on the morning of April 2. Sally was born less than 12 hours later! We finally got to meet on Sunday...it was so special to meet sweet Piper and catch up with Taylor and Chris. We miss them so much! I'm excited about the years of memories we have ahead of us!
Tuesday, May 26: Sally's first flight! Mom and Dad picked Sally and me up from Tulsa on Tuesday. I needed to come to Dallas for a doctor's appointment, so we went to back a little early. Dad has flown for many, many years, so we knew we were in good hands. Sally thinks its pretty cool that she has her own pilot! ;)
Memorial Day weekend: Andress and Patrick come visit! Andress and Patrick were our first visitors in Tulsa. We had such a wonderful time. Most of our time was spent on a quilt in our vacant living room staring at Sally! Now, that's my idea of a perfect day! We also went to Utica Square for some shopping, celebrated PJ's birthday at his house, and sipped wine on our patio. Andress and Patrick are so special to us. They are such great friends. We are blessed that they have agreed to be Sally's Godparents. I could not ask for any two people to better guide our little one.
The first picture is a rarity-- Sally crying in the presence of Andress and Patrick. She is usually in heaven with them-- just like above! They both have the special touch!
Miss Meg! We finally got to get the two red heads together! Meg and Ilena came to visit a couple of weeks ago. The girls will be such good friends. I see many OU tailgates and football games in their futures. Just think of the trouble that these girls will find !
Meg was pretty interested in Sally, but Sally was a bit distracted by her pacifier.
