A Girl Cannot Live Without Her.....


This girl cannot live without her purse! Carly loves this red heart shaped purse. She asks for it the minute she gets up and takes it with her everywhere throughout the day.


When she is eating

When she is playing in the playroom

When she is playing with her friends outside

When she is at Chuck E. Cheese

When she is playing with Mommy's phone. This girl always has her red purse with her! So what is in this very important purse? Well, it is always changing. Right now she has a bracelet and a game card from Memory in it.
Kate loves her purses, too. However, her purse is always changing. They love their "stuff" as they call it. I love to see what both of them have in their purses. It is so many different odds and ends from around the house. Kate has her purse to the side so you can't completely see it. Doesn't she look so big in this picture?

We are having a......

In case you have not heard Zack and I are having our third girl! We found out a couple of weeks ago. We had felt all along that we would probably have three girls. It is crazy that in the Tate family this will make the eighth girl in a row! Zack is a great Daddy to little girls, so God decided to bless us with another one. She looked healthy on the sonogram and even looked like she might be sucking her thumb. I guess time will tell as far as that goes. My amniotic fluid was a little low so we will have another sonogram at 27 weeks. My doctor did not seem too concerned about that though. I have to admit that there was a little part of us that was hoping we might have a boy, but we are very happy and just thrilled to have a healthy baby. Kate was emphatic that she wanted another sister. She did a little happy dance when we told her that it was going to be a girl. I grew up with four sisters, so I look forward to seeing our three girls grow up together. Sisters are such a blessing and I am so happy that my girls will experience the joy of that. Yes, I know that will include some drama along the way, too. Zack will just have to have his getaways from all the girl hormones, right? Good thing he has regular hunting trips and the Big Bend with his buddies every year. I have also reminded Zack that girls can hunt and camp just like boys. We will continue to keep you posted, but we are thrilled to announce that we are having another girl. Now if we can just come up with a name.....
