Transitioning

We are in transition mode.

We have transistioned to a new state, a new town.

Brad has tranisitioned to a new job.

The girls have transitioned to a new school, new friends, and new beds.

We left Columbus, MS on Lillianna's official birthday and moved into an apartment in Union City, TN.

Before we moved our things in though, we had to celebrate Lillianna "officially" turning 5.

They thought it was a hoot.

And it's a bit of a tradition since we celebrated Ellenie's 1st birthday

 the same way when we moved to Columbus on her official first birthday.

I'd love to keep the Sombrero tradition...just not the moving one.

When we got back to our new home, Lillianna got to open her present from Mom and Dad.

She had been so patient waiting and didn't mind a bit that it was wrapped in a sheet since real wrapping paper had been forgotten in all the craziness of moving.

She loved her very first Barbie dolls.

Mainly because they were all Princesses.

Now, all of them line the bottom of her bed, in a specific (only known to her) order with 15 other princesses.

They hardly get moved or played with...by choice. 

She would rather stare at them and keep their beauty perfect.

  Of course, her sister would rather they gallop on horses, switch dresses, and get their hair done regularly.
