The Girls and Gummy Worms

All dressed up for church, hair done, cute outfits and so, as most mother's would probably think the same...I wanted a picture with my girls! Well it was not that easy as I had a cranky, emotional toddler, a dog that wanted to be in the picture, and a camera man that was not "so" quick! I finally had to "BRIBE" Jaelyn with gummy worms so that I could take her picture!!  Nevertheless, here are the pics and I can't complain! I love my girls and they are both the sweetest things!

THE PICTURES THAT DIDN'T QUITE MAKE IT.....

I love this pic...notice Jaelyn in the background kissing the table when I am trying to take her picture with her sister!?! 

The Long Days of Winter

It has been a long couple of weeks here in WYO! We went from unseasonably warm weather to negative temps! It has been way too cold to go outside, so I had to get creative! We have played many afternoons of dress-up, books and toys....but thanks to PINTEREST I am pulling out the creativity right and left! We have done yogurt finger painting, water table games, beans and marshmallows....

Yogurt Finger Painting

Beans, marshmallows and cups....who wouldn't have fun?!?

Eating marshmallows is part of the fun!

Elliana 6 Months

Elliana is 6 months old! She is eating baby food, crackers, puffs and avocado! She has definitely followed in the footsteps of Jaelyn and her good eating habits!

She has also started sitting up, and it a very chatty, smiley baby! Jason calls her "hawk" because she has the highest pitch squeal that sounds like a hawk!

Weight: 16. 3 pounds (50%)

Height: 27 inches (88%)

Elliana 6 months!

Popcorn Please

January 2, 2012

Jaelyn went to her first movie! I don't know who was more excited...Jaelyn or myself! We got there, got popcorn, and headed into the movie. She made it about 30 minutes and ate a whole bag of popcorn until we had to take our first bathroom break! Then another 20 minutes and bathroom break number two...then 15 minutes later and another bathroom break!

We left the movie with 5 minutes to go, and I have to say overall she did great! All she can talk about since we went is the "popcorn!"

Her first movie, "Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chip Wrecked." She is saying, "Come on Mom!! Let's go get popcorn!"
