charlie rose...

Meet our newest member of the Cain family...Charlie Rose...

We could not be more in love!  She was born on February 10, 2019 and joined our family about 2 weeks ago.  She is a red and white merle border collie.

Boy had I forgotten about the puppy stage!  Everyone says its like having a baby...WRONG!  A baby is still on the rug when you get back from the bathroom, they wear diapers, and the don't have sharp razor-like teeth!  But nevertheless we love her!  She has quickly become Marley's best friend!

537 perry lane...

It finally happened!  We moved into our dream home here in Robinson about 3 weeks ago.  It was the longest 9 months of my life...yes, beating out 9 months of pregnancy!  I will NEVER...mark my words...NEVER move again!  The building process was rough to say the least, but in the end we have our dream home and couldn't be happier.  We are loving having our own place again, and we are really loving having a nice big yard to enjoy in this beautiful spring weather!  The 5 minute commute to work isn't that bad either!  

We cannot wait for you to come visit!

daddy-daughter date valentine's date...

Adam will be gone for Valentine's Day so he decided to take Marley on a date.  The Chili's near us had set up a special night for daddy's and daughters so it was perfect!  Marley could not wait for her "date" with daddy!  He had bought her flowers and of course they had to go on the date with them.  

In true girl fashion she had picked out her dress and jewelry and debated over two different purses to take. 

I love that she has a daddy that is showing her what she should expect from a man in her life and showing her how she should be treated.  I hope and pray that one day she will be so lucky to find a man like Adam.

   

 

 

marley's best quotes of 2018...

Marley keeps us on our toes and entertained DAILY...so here are a few of her best quotes from 2018.

Me: "Marley you need to pick up some of these toys."

Marley: "Um don't call me Marley!  My name is Princess Aurora...and servants are supposed to know."

"Dreams taste like cinnamon rolls!"

On our way to church...

Me:  "Marley you look cute!"

Marley: "I dressed to impress!"

"Rolly Pollies just give you joy on sunny days!

"Let's pretend I'm on one of those roller lay day things under a car fixing it ok?"

As we're eating dinner...

Marley: "Um, anyone else notice what I'm noticing?!"

Me: (laughing so hard trying not to choke)

Adam: "Um no..."

Marley: "Um I'm all out of breadsticks!"

"Mom my fish was 8 miles tall! Taller than papa!"

As we were practicing Marley's sight words tonight I put her new word "or" in a sentence.

Me: "We can go to Target OR Walmart."

Marley: "You can get EVERYTHING at Target!"

Marley: "I scratched my arm today at school."

Me: "Oh I'm sorry! That happens sometimes."

Marley: "Don't worry Kristen knew exactly what to do!  She put a little mouth slobber on it...her mouth slobber."

Me: "Did it work?"

Marley: "Yes! She know EVERYTHING!"

In the car on the way home earlier Marley dropped her toy...

Marley: "Dad stop the car real quick so I can get my toy!"

Adam: "We'll be home in 2 minutes. I'm not stopping the car."

Marley: "Look killer, stop the car so I can get my toy!"

"Sun Scream" = sunscreen

"Bumpit Babies" = Muppet Babies

"I love you more than there are pimples on the beach!" = more than pebbles on the beach

September 2, 2018 at exactly 3:53pm these words were uttered by Marley, "Mommy was right!" 

As we're listening to Red Hot Chili Peppers Marley hollers, "Turn it up so I can sing it better!"

"Hey can one of ya'll fetch me a piece of water?"

Marley painted a really pretty picture the other day and wanted to give it to a friend...

Me: "Marley can I please keep it?! I love it and want to keep it forever!"

Marley (completely deadpan): "You can't keep anything forever.  You're about to be up under a stone soon anyway."

chipie...

Of course we can't leave out Chipie our elf!  He did come to visit again this year and of course brought his traditional PJs the first night!
